Michael Carrick defends the character of his Manchester United players after a disappointing 2-1 loss to Newcastle. Carrick, who had led United to six wins and a draw as interim manager, faced tough questions post-match. Newcastle's Antony Gordon opened the scoring from the penalty spot, but Casemiro equalized with a header from a Bruno Fernandes free-kick. Despite Newcastle going down to ten men, United couldn’t capitalize. In the dying moments, substitute William Osula scores a stunning goal, sealing the defeat for the Red Devils. Carrick expresses disappointment, stating, "We’re not happy with the way we played." He acknowledges the need to improve but emphasizes the team’s position in the league. Meanwhile, Chelsea’s victory over Aston Villa and Liverpool’s defeat to Wolves tightens the race, with United in third and Liverpool just three points behind in sixth.
