What do you think a win vs Aston Villa would mean for Michael Carrick's future? How should it influence the club's thinking? How long do you think Carrick has, win lose or draw?

Roy Keane and Ashley Young are both critical of Senne Lammens’ performance at the half-time break  

Senne Lammens was able to breathe a sigh of relief after Bruno Fernandes netted from the spot-kick in the 16th minute of the Premier League match. Youri Tielemans then netted against his former side at Old Trafford to pull United level with Aston Villa going into the half-time break.

Speaking on Sky Sports at half-time, Roy Keane said that United had a “nightmare” start at home in the opening five minutes and admitted that Lammens underperformed against Villa.

“Nightmare start for United, they never got going,” he said, as per BBC Sport.

“Villa looked sharp. The keeper has to be doing better. It’s poor from United and it was a standard save. Villa probably couldn’t have believed their luck, but then they gave United a helping hand.”

Ashley Young echoed the sentiments of United legend Keane as well, but he also criticised Diogo Dalot for his role in Alysson’s first-half opener.

“Aston Villa were the brighter team,” he said on Sky Sports as well.

“They started bright and quick with intent. On the opening goal, Diogo Dalot has to defend his goal and slide in.

“The goalkeeper doesn’t do himself any glory. Since the World Cup, he [Sene Lammens] made that mistake and he hasn’t looked the same.”

Michael Carrick has been using Man Utd right-back Diogo Dalot as a makeshift left-back due to the absence of the injured Luke Shaw in recent weeks.
