- Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has doubled down on his criticism of the club following a 4-1 Champions League defeat against Como, urging everyone at Old Trafford to accept that United's glory days are behind them.
- Fernandes insisted that both players and staff focus too much on past successes and must instead accept their current reality to build something different for the future.
- The Portuguese midfielder's remarks follow a public rant over Michael Carrick’s tactics after Wednesday’s loss, with the United boss apologising to supporters while criticising his team's work rate and running.
- Pundit Jamie Carragher described Fernandes' initial post-match comments as “a disgrace”, though Carrick defended the team's potential by pointing to their strong finish in the previous campaign.
- The defeat extends United's winless run to seven matches in all competitions, leaving them 20th in the Champions League table, 13th in the Premier League, and already knocked out of the Carabao Cup.
