Manchester United manager Michael Carrick faces pressure after Chelsea defeat
Manchester United fell to a 2-0 loss against Chelsea, extending their winless run to nine matches in all competitions.
Manchester United manager Michael Carrick faced renewed scrutiny following a 2-0 Premier League defeat against Chelsea on Saturday, according to Outlook.
The loss extended United's winless run in all competitions to nine matches, their longest stretch without a victory since 1988.
Chelsea took control in the second half through goals from Morgan Rogers and Cole Palmer, who converted a penalty in the 64th minute.
The penalty was awarded after Lisandro Martinez was shown a second yellow card for a challenge on Wesley Fofana involving a raised elbow.
United currently sit one point above the relegation zone, having secured only one league win from nine matches.
The club faces a Champions League fixture against Roma on Tuesday, amid questions regarding Carrick's future at Old Trafford.
