Manchester United's 0-2 away defeat to Hull City shows that Carrick still has plenty of work to do with the team. He revitalized the squad after taking over last season, when the previous head coach was former manager Ruben Amorim.

Despite dominating possession and taking 21 shots, Manchester United managed only 5 shots on target and ultimately failed to score.

The Red Devils have now lost four of their last seven Premier League opening matches. Such defeats will only fuel fan concerns heading into the new season.

Yorke told Reviant that Carrick has had a poor start, and fans won't be lenient with him because they expect to see results.

"Carrick's honeymoon period is over. He deserved this opportunity and was tasked with getting us into the top four comfortably.

"From that perspective, he deserves a chance. Now it's time for him to step up and prove that he's a good manager. This season we'll see whether he has what it takes to make that step."

Speaking about Manchester United, he continued: "Manchester United have had a terrible start to the season. We were very optimistic about the new campaign because we thought the team performed well towards the end of last season and secured a return to the Champions League.

"The opening round drew a tough opponent in Hull City, and history shows Manchester United usually handle matches like that well, but after just one game, we're already in a precarious position."

Last season, Manchester United won 13 of their 19 home league matches, but only 7 away matches, with 8 draws and 4 defeats. This latest away loss to Hull City also means they've failed to score in the opening round for two consecutive Premier League seasons.
