The pressure has begun to mount on Michael Carrick, as Manchester United’s poor league results they were also eliminated by Brighton in the League Cup at Old Trafford, in a match they had led 2-0.
“What happened was unacceptable, and I take full responsibility. When we win, people say I’m doing a good job, and if we don’t win or get results, then the blame falls on me—I accept all of that; I’m not hiding,” said the coach of the “Red Devils.”

Ferguson: “People have always been more important than the games.”
“Over the last week or two, there have been a few minor incidents against us that have piled up and give the impression that the problem is much bigger. The goal we conceded late in the match against Everton, on a shot from outside the box. City’s goal the other day. All of these things can suddenly blow up and take on greater proportions, but I understand the frustration, because we shouldn’t have ended the game that way, given the position we were in. We must show humility and accept the situation,” he added.
“I fully understand the fans’ feelings. I understand it completely. We have to accept it. I accept it completely. Ultimately, the responsibility lies with me. You know, as a team, what kind of image are we projecting? How are we playing? What results are we getting? You get the praise, while I stand here and take the criticism. I fully understand it, given how the game unfolded. We have to win games,” he concluded.
