Coach Michael Carrick, who took over in January, has been criticized. Earlier this week, star defender Lisandro Martínez saw the club's lead cut significantly after a 0-2 away defeat to Atlético Madrid in the Champions League.
The Argentine apologized and was included in the starting lineup against Leeds. But Manchester United's difficult start to the season continues. Bryan Mbeumo made it 1-0, but Leeds - with Swedish international Gabriel Gudmundsson playing the whole game - came back to level at 1-1 at the start of the second half.
Manchester United have thus won only one of their seven opening games and are in the bottom half of the table - already 14 points behind leaders and city rivals Manchester City.
