Bruno Fernandes & Carrick Hold Clear the Air Talks — Is the Damage Beyond Repair?

Michael Carrick and Bruno Fernandes have held clear-the-air talks ahead of Manchester United's trip to Chelsea, but is the damage already done?

Bruno was wrong to publicly criticise United's tactics, particularly as club captain. But there's another side to the story: Fernandes has repeatedly been let down by a club that has failed to deliver on its promises, and his frustration is understandable.

The question now is whether his relationship with United has reached the point of no return. Should he start against Chelsea? Has he mentally checked out? And could a January or summer departure be the best outcome for everyone?

There's also a wider issue at Old Trafford. Following another humiliating defeat, United's players and staff have reportedly acknowledged their collective underperformance and promised to put things right. But after months of disappointing performances, words mean very little.

Scott Saunders shares his thoughts.
