Michael Carrick has a big Man United problem to solve to stop feel-good factor crumbling away
Joe Wright Perhaps it's fitting that Michael Carrick's first three Manchester United games have yielded a collective sense of "meh". One win, one draw, one defeat. Four points from away games at Hull City and Everton, and a home match against Ipswich Town. Two goals conceded in each one. Hmm... not great. Seven goals scored at the other end, second only to Brighton and Hove Albion. The highest expected goals figure in the league after two matchdays. No new major injuries.
