EPL: 'Just to embarrass him' - Carragher on why Carrick refused to use Bruno Fernandes in 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth

In Manchester United's latest Premier League match against Bournemouth, the team suffered a 3-0 defeat, marking their eighth consecutive winless game across all competitions. This stretch includes three draws and five losses. Head coach Michael Carrick received some praise from supporters, but the players faced boos as they left the tunnel after the match.

Bournemouth has been in impressive form, winning all four of their last four games, including a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford and a 3-0 win in the Europa League against AC Milan. United's last win came on September 10 against Sabah FK in their Champions League home game. In the Premier League, United lost to Manchester City (1-0), drew 1-1 against Fulham, Tottenham and Leeds, and lost 3-2 to Brighton in the League Cup.

Additionally, they were beaten 4-1 by Atletico Madrid and 4-1 by Como in the Champions League. Bruno Fernandes, the club's captain, was left on the bench for this match, a decision that could have implications for the team's performance. Last week, Fernandes had criticized his team's tactics following their 4-1 Champions League defeat to Como.
