Andrey Santos confirms how Man United stars truly feel about Michael Carrick after Atletico loss

Andrey Santos, the Brazilian midfielder for Manchester United, has shed light on the team's sentiment towards their manager, Michael Carrick, following a 2-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid. The match, played at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium, saw Pablo Barrios and Ademola Lookman score in the first half, intensifying the pressure on Carrick and his teammates.

After the final whistle, Lisandro Martinez, one of the players, launched a scathing attack on the board, accusing them of failing to support Carrick adequately, instead placing all the blame on him. Martinez also questioned whether the board should shoulder some responsibility for the team's struggles rather than solely burdening the manager.

Following the match, Santos issued a heartfelt apology to the United fans and confirmed the dressing room's view on Carrick. The Brazilian stated, "We just want to say sorry to everyone who has travelled to Spain. We want to win every single game, but now it's time to work hard and come back with a victory." Santos emphasized their belief in Carrick, as well as the whole staff and themselves as players, stating, "We are in a bad moment, but we have to work to change this result."

The manager's future at United hangs in the balance, with Martinez facing an uncertain future in light of his recent comments.
