Michael Carrick dismissed fitness concerns after Manchester United's 1-1 draw with Fulham, their worst Premier League start since 2014. Matheus Cunha's 89th-minute equalizer rescued United after Lisandro Martinez's own goal, leaving them 12th with five points from five games. Cunha claimed Fulham showed more energy, with data showing the hosts covered six kilometres more. Carrick rejected the criticism, insisting his team finished strongly. He acknowledged the start is "not ideal" but praised the late response. United now face an international break before hosting Tottenham on October 10.
