Manchester United lost to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, leaving them with 7 points from their opening nine Premier League matches. The defeat stretched United's run to nine matches without a win in all competitions.
How the match unfolded
Chelsea were level at the break in the ninth round of the Premier League. Morgan Rogers scored in the 50th minute, and Cole Palmer scored from the penalty spot in the 64th minute after Lisandro Martinez fouled his man.
Fernandes back in the side
Bruno Fernandes fought back tears at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. He had watched the Bournemouth game from the bench after criticising his manager's tactical choices in the wake of the 4-1 loss to Como in the Champions League, but he returned to the starting line-up against Chelsea and played the full 90.
Carrick's response
Michael Carrick said his focus is on preparing the players for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Roma. He said: "I won't give you a long speech to explain the situation today, as that won't change anything. We have to move forward and win football matches, it's as simple as that."
Upcoming fixtures
Manchester United were due to play Roma on Tuesday and Aston Villa at home on Sunday.
