EPL: Carrick takes decision on removing Bruno Fernandes as Man Utd captain

Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes will retain his role as captain despite expressing criticism towards manager Michael Carrick.

Fernandes openly criticized Carrick’s tactical decisions following the team’s 4-1 defeat to Como in the Champions League on Wednesday. This loss marked the seventh consecutive match in which United has failed to secure a victory across all competitions.

Carrick, who is facing increasing scrutiny, will remain in charge when Manchester United hosts Bournemouth in the Premier League on Sunday. Club officials at Old Trafford have opted to support Carrick, even amidst ongoing speculation linking potential managerial candidates such as Antonio Conte, Eddie Howe, and Julian Nagelsmann to the position.
