Neville says Carrick was set up by the squad

Manchester United closed a bad week with a worse result, losing 3-0 to Bournemouth. After the match, Gary Neville assessed the problems the team is facing on The Gary Neville Podcast.

Neville said head coach Michael Carrick has come under huge pressure at Manchester United in a short time. Reminding viewers how names such as Van Gaal, Mourinho, Ten Hag, Rangnick and Solskjaer were worn down at the club, Neville said Carrick sees that history and still took the risk.

The former defender suggested that in recent years a group of players has led to the dismissal of several head coaches. According to Neville, these players had stalled and misled Carrick for months. In his comments, he also said he believed Carrick's position was under threat.

On the other hand, under Carrick, Manchester United has produced a different picture since Amorim was sacked. Losing only twice in the new year, the team has won five of its last six Premier League matches and climbed to third, guaranteeing a return to the Champions League. Despite these results, Neville argued that the current squad carries serious responsibility for decisions within the club and for performances on the pitch.
