Nottingham Forest beat Manchester City 3-1 at home, sending Manchester United, who have not yet played, into the Premier League relegation zone. ESPN reports Manchester United are 18th with seven points from nine games, the first time in 40 years the club have been in the top-flight relegation zone at the end of a matchday after playing at least nine league games. The last time this happened was November 1986, when the team were 21st after 15 games, manager Atkinson was then sacked and Ferguson took over.
Carrick spoke at Friday's press conference about the dressing room atmosphere after the midweek comeback against AS Roma, saying: "Obviously this is a positive reaction, but it is not as if we have suddenly become carried away. I have seen enough from the players, I know what they can do, I have said many times that I know the ability of this squad, and everyone knows it too. We have just not been able to show it often enough recently, but it is there. The lads are training very well, I am not saying this just to sound nice, if it were not the case I would say so plainly.

诺丁汉森林在主场三比一击败曼城,把还没出场的曼联送进了英超降级区。ESPN 报道,曼联以九轮七分排在第十八位,这是俱乐部四十年来首次在赛季踢完至少九轮后于一个比赛日结束时身处顶级联赛降级区。上一次出现这一情况要追溯到一九八六年十一月,当时球队十五轮后列第二十一位,主帅阿特金森随后下课,弗格森接手。
卡里克在周五发布会上谈到周中逆转罗马后的更衣室气氛,他说:「显然这是积极的反应,但并不是说我们突然就得意忘形了。我从球员身上看得够多了,我知道他们能做到什么,我说过很多次,我清楚这支球队的能力,大家也都清楚。我们只是最近没能足够频繁地证明它,但它就在那儿。小伙子们训练得非常好,我不是为了好听才这么说,如果不是这样,我会直说。」
