- Carrick confirmed Martinez will be part of the squad for Sunday's Premier League trip to Leeds United, despite the defender reportedly being fined internally by the club.
- Dismissing external criticism, Carrick emphasized squad unity, saying, "Just because people talk on the outside doesn't mean that is the truth." The coach stressed the squad is in a fantastic place.
