Injury Details
Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has confirmed that Carlos Baleba will be sidelined for a number of weeks with a hamstring problem. The £70m summer signing from Brighton left the pitch in tears during the second half of Tuesday's match at Old Trafford. Carrick stated the player will not return this week or during the international break, ruling him out for an extended period.
Recent Form and Standings
The result against Roma ended a run of nine games without a win for United. The team currently sits just above the Premier League relegation zone. Carrick stressed that the side must build on the performance rather than celebrate a single outcome as the squad prepares for Sunday's visit from Aston Villa.
Manager's Outlook
Carrick described the midweek result as a positive night for players and supporters but emphasized that nothing has been achieved yet. He noted the need to create further momentum moving forward to improve the team's position in the league table.
