MANCHESTER UNITED'S Carling Cup flops are set to pay the price for their KO
against Crystal Palace.
</h2>
<p>
Alex Ferguson was forced to apologise to the Old Trafford faithful and now the
likes of Dimitar Berbatov, Darron Gibson, Kiko Macheda and Mame Biram Diouf
could be moved on.
</p>
<p>
There is a big question mark over the future of record <20>30.75million buy
Berbatov who limped off at half-time after another poor display.
</p>
<p>
Boss Fergie has shown he is not afraid to get ruthless with players who do not
cut it in the League Cup.
</p>
<p>
Four years ago United crashed out to Coventry at Old Trafford and some never
recovered. Of the 14 players on duty, nine have since left while Tomasz
Kusczak is frozen out.
</p>
<p>
Ferguson's men were also humbled at West Ham 12 months ago and four players
from that squad have gone.
</p>
<p>
So that could spell bad news for the likes of Italian Macheda, 20, and Senegal
ace Diouf, 23.
</p>
<p>
Skipper for the night Jonny Evans said: "The lads have got to work hard on
their games.
</p>
<p>
"We're very disappointed not to be in the semi-finals. But the games are
coming thick and fast and the manager will need his squad. So we need to
pick ourselves up."
