The result at Stamford Bridge leaves United third in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.givemesport.com\/tag\/premier-league\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Premier League<\/a> table on 58 points with only five fixtures remaining.<\/p>\n<p>It was difficult night for Garnacho, previously ranked as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.givemesport.com\/best-young-players-in-world-football-soccer-ranked\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">one of the world&#8217;s best young players<\/a>, who walked away from Man Utd last summer. The 21-year-old Argentine started the match on the substitutes\u2019 bench but was called into action after just 16 minutes when Estevao suffered an injury.<\/p>\n<p>As anticipated, Garnacho received a hostile reception from the travelling United supporters, who booed and jeered his every touch. The winger struggled to make an impact against Diogo Dalot and lost possession 15 times.<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"440\" height=\"364\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Liam Rosenior\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/mixcollage-18-apr-2026-09-33-pm-1441.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/mixcollage-18-apr-2026-09-33-pm-1441.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    Related<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.givemesport.com\/chelsea-man-utd-fans-tear-apart-alejandro-garnacho-premier-league\/\" title=\"Chelsea Ace Should \u2018Leave the Club With Rosenior\u2019 After Display vs Man Utd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t\tChelsea Ace Should \u2018Leave the Club With Rosenior\u2019 After Display vs Man Utd<br \/>\n\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Chelsea dropped more vital points in the Premier League as qualification for the Champions League slips away.<\/p>\n<p>                        Bruno Responds to Shaw&#8217;s Garnacho Post<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"1650\" height=\"826\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Bruno Fernandes and his Man Utd teammates\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/mixcollage-19-apr-2026-06-51-am-3240.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/mixcollage-19-apr-2026-06-51-am-3240.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Bruno Fernandes and his Man Utd teammates<\/p>\n<p>However, it appears his former Manchester United teammates have little sympathy for him.

The world doesn\u2019t end because you lose a game, so we were fine &#8211; we learned from things and we spoke about a few things, but that&#8217;s football,\u201d Carrick told reporters after the win over Chelsea. \u201cThe league is what it is. I think you see that, there&#8217;s results all over the place in different ways.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe weren&#8217;t getting too down about that at all. I think if anything, we looked at it and thought, you know, I think we&#8217;re right near the top, if not top of the last 12 games. We took a lot of confidence from that. We knew what this game was. We didn&#8217;t overplay it, if anything, we didn&#8217;t speak about positions or points. It was just coming down here to win a game and commit to that, and then the boys definitely did that.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Luke Shaw couldn\u2019t resist a cheeky dig at Alejandro Garnacho after Manchester United\u2019s 1-0 win over Chelsea on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":593336,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":["post-593335","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/593335","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=593335"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/593335\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/593336"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=593335"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=593335"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=593335"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
