Bruno Fernandes and Michael Carrick have reportedly held clear-the-air talks at Carrington, and Manchester United’s captain is back in contention to face Chelsea on Saturday after sitting out the 3-0 home defeat by Bournemouth.
Fernandes was an unused substitute at Old Trafford on Sunday, having questioned Carrick’s tactics in the wake of the 4-1 Champions League loss at Como. Carrick, 45, described the omission as a “pure football” decision, then watched his side concede three times without reply.
