Manchester United have suffered one of their most humiliating European defeats in recent memory, dismantled 4-1 by Como in a Champions League performance that raises enormous questions about Michael Carrick's future.

United were comprehensively outplayed by Cesc Fàbregas' side, showing little intensity, organisation or attacking threat as their winless run extended to seven matches. With the team seemingly going backwards every week, has Carrick now reached the point of no return?

The fallout after full-time was just as concerning. Bruno Fernandes appeared to question the tactical approach, suggesting United needed to be braver and more aggressive in their pressing, while Carrick criticised the players' lack of running and commitment. Are the manager and his captain now publicly identifying different reasons for the same disastrous performance?

Scott Saunders reacts to one of United's worst performances in recent memory.
