Bournemouth beat Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford on October 25, 2026, leaving Michael Carrick's side with two wins from 12 games and seven points from eight league games, one point off the relegation zone. Carrick benched Bruno Fernandes and kept him there, saying afterwards he did not expect the fans' support; Fernandes publicly attacked him over it. Carrick and Jason Wilcox both arrived at Carrington on Monday morning with Carrick still in charge. The discussion now weighs whether a change of manager addresses the club's deeper problems, with supporters chanting against the new stadium in response to a club poll on stadium preferences.
