New season, same Man Utd story - Carrick is now firmly feeling the pressure

This wasn't just a defeat. This wasn't just a collapse. This wasn't just a cup exit. Another Manchester United managerial project is heading in that one, same direction. And even Michael Carrick recognises that.

"We've gone out of the cup and the feeling around the place feels bigger than that," he said. "I'm happy enough to be honest about that. That's how it feels."
