After all the stick I got from Manchester United fans for saying they would get thumped by Leeds last weekend, it turns out I was only a few days out - it happened against Como instead.

United have been poor all season, though. That's why I went for them to be despatched like that - the 5-0 scoreline was a little bit tongue in cheek, but the point I was making has been proven this week.

The Bruno Fernandes criticism of Michael Carrick just adds to the problems United have at the moment - it is as if they are at the stage now where you have to pick who you want to back.

I don't know where United go from here but I am going for a Bournemouth win - the Cherries will attack them, and their great recent record at Old Trafford will give them confidence too.

If United do lose, I think it will be the end for Carrick because I just don't see how he survives this.

Even if United get something from this game, it is still just a matter of time before he goes.

Sutton's prediction: 1-2
