  "account": "Manchester United manager Michael Carrick remained resolute in his position despite a string of poor results, stating he is \"here to do my job\" and not seeking any assurances about his future. The 45-year-old former United and England midfielder dismissed speculation about his role, saying he was not surprised to still be in charge following a run of eight games without a win. Carrick backed captain Bruno Fernandes, whose criticism of his tactics resulted in the midfielder being substituted during a recent match. Despite United's recent loss to Bournemouth and their precarious position in the Premier League, Carrick expressed his commitment to the club and his determination to improve the team's performance.",
  "summary": "The Manchester United manager said he needed 'no assurances' over his future at Old Trafford.",
