Manchester United are seeking to dig their way out of crisis over the coming weeks, beginning with Bournemouth’s visit to Old Trafford in the Premier League.
Sunday’s match could prove make-or-break for Michael Carrick, whose position as manager becomes increasingly untenable with each passing humiliation. The dismal 4–1 defeat to Como on Wednesday was the final straw for many, including captain Bruno Fernandes, who became the second player to voice their anger at the club’s staff and hierarchy.
Now seven matches without victory across all competitions, the Red Devils desperately need to clinch only their third win of the campaign when the Cherries come to town. Having amassed just seven points in as many matches, things are looking decidedly bleak in the red half of Manchester—and not for the first time in recent years.
Bournemouth made an underwhelming start under new manager Marco Rose, but things have begun to click since the international break. Back-to-back 3–0 victories over Sturm Graz and AC Milan in the Europa League—the latter coached by ex-United manager Ruben Amorim—sandwiched a first Premier League triumph of the season at home to Sunderland last weekend.
They know they will leapfrog their hosts with victory at Old Trafford, and they have an impressive record during recent visits to the venue.
