Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has accepted full responsibility for the club’s historic poor start to the season, though he remains "confident" in a turnaround ahead of their upcoming match against Bournemouth.
The Red Devils have recorded their worst start to a Premier League campaign in 40 years, a slump that has placed significant pressure on the coaching staff and the squad.
Carrick acknowledged the gravity of the situation, stating that he accepts the blame for the team's recent struggles. Despite the difficult circumstances, the manager expressed optimism that the team can reverse their fortunes in the coming weeks.
The focus now shifts to the immediate fixture list, with the Bournemouth game serving as a crucial opportunity for Manchester United to end their run of poor results and stabilize their position in the league.
While the 40-year record for the worst start to a season highlights the severity of the current crisis, Carrick’s comments suggest an internal belief that the squad possesses the quality necessary to recover from this early-season dip.
