Carrick sees ‘fresh start’ for Manchester United despite Leeds draw extending winless run

Michael Carrick viewed Manchester United's 1-1 draw against Leeds as a "fresh start", despite the club's ongoing winless streak. Leeds' Dominic Calvert-Lewin equalized Bryan Mbeumo's opening goal, extending United's winless run to six matches across all competitions. Carrick noted that the recent 2-0 Champions League loss to Atletico Madrid had raised concerns, including Lisandro Martinez's criticism of the club's lack of summer investment.

However, Carrick emphasized that the team must continue doing the right things to achieve success. He praised the players' determination to support each other and their appreciation for being part of the football club, evident in the purposeful group dynamic over recent days. United heads to Como on Wednesday to seek their first win since last month's Champions League opener against Sabah before attempting to revive their Premier League campaign at home to Bournemouth.

Currently sitting in 13th place, the Red Devils have the fewest wins at this stage of a top-flight season since 1986-87. Carrick acknowledged the team's struggles and the need to find a way forward, while expressing confidence in their ability to turn things around.
