Each fact is a sentence from a source that at least two independent outlets report.
We have to make the right one for today and the team to get that performance we want," added Carrick as he dismissed the decision was taken as a response to Fernandes's outburst.
The Portugal star was left out of the team against Bournemouth in what Carrick described as a "pure football" decision and never made it onto the field, with the visitors taking advantage of woeful defending to score goals through Rayan, Marcus Tavernier and Evanilson.
With United tumbling to 16th place in the 20-team Premier League, Carrick's job is under huge threat - barely five months after signing a permanent deal as manager after leading the team back into the Champions League while on a short-term contract in the second half of last season.
Disgruntled United fans also chanted against Jason Wilcox, the club's director of football, who was the target of recent criticism from defender Lisandro Martinez and the Glazer family, the majority owners.
"It hurts an awful lot to see us going through this at this moment in time," Carrick said.
