  "account": "Gary Neville criticized Manchester United's players for abandoning Michael Carrick, who is under pressure due to recent defeats and Bruno Fernandes' criticism of Carrick's tactics. Neville defended Carrick as a man of integrity and professionalism, stating that the current squad lacks the qualities of those players. Neville accused the team of behaving like \"kings\" despite being \"nothing,\" and suggested that the club's problems extend beyond Carrick. He expressed concern that the players' lack of commitment was evident even behind closed doors, as Fernandes' criticism of Carrick indicates. Despite Carrick's impassioned plea for sacrifice, humility, and hard work in the press conference, Neville noted the players' disappointing performances, describing them as \"nothing\" and a \"pattern of nothings.\"",
