Michael Carrick fumes at referee’s decision to award Chelsea a penalty.

Manchester United caretaker manager Michael Carrick disagrees with referee’s decision to award Chelsea a penalty.

The Blues draw level with United after a penalty was awarded following a reckless challenge by Wan-Bissaka.

Speaking after the game Michael Carrick believes the penalty Chelsea had do not worth it.

On the penalty decision.

“I don’t think it was a penalty, no. I don’t think it was a penalty at all. I don’t know what my opinion counts now, to be honest. I don’t think it was a penalty.

“They’ve obviously had a lot of play, had a lot of shots, David’s had two saves, which I kind of knew before the game at some point he’s gonna have to make one or two for us. But other than that, I felt quite comfortable in the game, I have to say.”

Chelsea dominated the game from the first half of the match till when the final whistle was blown.

Carrick knew they were not good with the ball but pleased with the attitude of his player throughout the game.

“Of course we want to be better in terms of having the ball and possession and I’m not getting carried away saying it was a fantastic performance but I thought we defended ever so well.

“The atitude was absolutely top from the boys, putting bodies on the line when we had to, sticking together, tracking back, we’ve obviously got to do the other side a bit better but I cannot fault the boys one bit from today.”

On Sancho’s composure.

Jadon Sancho got is first goal for United in the Premier League and the manager was pleased with the former Dortmund player composure.

“It looks quite easy and straightforward when you see the camera and two of them are hunting down the goalkeeper but actually there’s a lot of time to think and there’s a bit of a cat and mouse with the goalkeeper… does Jadon go too early? I’ve seen them situations being made a mess of at times.

“He kept his head, made his decision and delayed a bit. You get your rewards and I said to him the other night and I said to all the boys ‘it doesn’t always come free and easy, free-flowing’, sometimes by doing the other side of it and earning your luck. It’s an old saying but it’s a terrific saying but sometimes it doesn’t half come off.”
