Episode Man Utd Have Gone Back to Square One Under Michael Carrick - Leeds 1-1 Man Utd Reaction
Manchester United's 1-1 draw at Leeds United leaves Michael Carrick's side with just seven points from their opening seven Premier League games, extending a winless run that stretches back to August.
Three consecutive 1-1 draws against bottom-half opposition have stopped the run of defeats, but have they actually changed anything? Despite an encouraging spell under Carrick towards the end of last season, United increasingly look like a team returning to the same problems that plagued them before his appointment.
There were positives at Elland Road. United showed greater commitment, Leny Yoro and Carlos Baleba impressed, and they produced a well-worked goal. But familiar weaknesses remain: underlying performances, vulnerability from set pieces, players operating outside their preferred positions and questions over Carrick's tactical decisions and use of substitutions.
Where next? Scott Saunders talks through his thoughts.
