Bryan Mbeumo insists Manchester United can take genuine positives from their recent defeat to Chelsea despite suffering a frustrating second-half collapse at Stamford Bridge. The forward praised the squad's underlying unity and improved attacking intent under Michael Carrick following Lisandro Martinez's costly dismissal.

Cole Palmer has singled out Romeo Lavia for special praise following Chelsea's impressive Premier League victory over Manchester United. The England international believes his midfield team-mate is currently one of the most underrated players in the country after overcoming a string of frustrating injury problems.

Peter Schmeichel has put Manchester United's 2-0 defeat to Chelsea on Saturday "solely" on Lisandro Martinez's shoulders. The defender was at fault for Morgan Rogers' opener and was then sent off for the foul that gave Cole Palmer a penalty, and the former United goalkeeper is now convinced that Martinez is simply not a suitable player for the club.

Manchester United legend Ashley Cole has raised serious concerns regarding Michael Carrick's future at Old Trafford, suggesting the squad has lost faith in their manager. The Red Devils' dismal form continued on Saturday as they suffered a demoralising 2-0 home defeat to Chelsea, extending their winless streak to nine matches.
