Michael Carrick, Manchester United's manager, admitted responsibility for his team's Carabao Cup elimination after they lost 3-2 to Brighton at Old Trafford. The match saw United dominate early on, scoring two goals, but Brighton fought back with three goals, including late ones from Charalampos Kostoulas, Pascal Gross, and Maxim De Cuyper.
This defeat follows a poor spell for United, including a 1-0 loss to Manchester City in the Premier League. Carrick emphasized that the team's performance is on him, accepting that both winning and losing result from his decisions. He highlighted the dramatic shift in mood from the start to the end of the match and stated that the team needs to respond quickly, with Sunday's game against Fulham being crucial.
Despite recent frustrations, Carrick remains confident in his players' abilities and stressed that the focus should be on winning matches to alleviate the negative spiral.
