Story summary

Manchester United face new injury concerns as they prepare for their upcoming match against Roma. The team is already struggling with a nine-match winless streak, including recent losses to Como and Bournemouth, and a 2-0 defeat by Chelsea where Lisandro Martinez was sent off. Michael Carrick's position as head coach has become increasingly precarious due to these poor results. However, there was some positive news on Monday when Patrick Dorgu returned to training after recovering from a hamstring injury sustained in September. Despite this, fans noticed defender Yoro strapped up during training, raising concerns about his fitness for the upcoming match at Old Trafford. Manchester United currently sits 20th in their Serie A group, having won only one of three games and lost their last two matches against Atletico Madrid and Como.

Why this leaning score

This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
