Manchester United's interim manager Michael Carrick has been defended amid criticism of the team's performance, with focus shifting to defender Lisandro Martinez. The Argentina international has been labeled a "liability" by pundits, and there are calls for Carrick to drop him permanently from the starting lineup.
The scrutiny comes after United's Premier League match against Fulham on November 1, 2026. While Carrick has faced pressure, some argue that the issues are not solely his responsibility.
