Under Michael Carrick, Manchester United have recorded four straight Premier League victories – a run that began with a 2‑1 win at Tottenham Hotspur on September 23 and continued with 3‑0 triumphs over Fulham and Arsenal, before edging Manchester City 1‑0 at Old Trafford on October 14.

The former midfielder’s tactical tweaks have tightened the midfield, giving Bruno Fernandes more freedom to link play while Luke Shaw provides width on the left. United now average 1.75 goals per game and concede just 0.75, the best defensive record in the league since 2020.

Fact: Manchester United’s last Premier League title came in the 2012‑13 season under Sir Alex Ferguson.

The consistency has lifted the club into the top‑four race, with the squad showing confidence that could carry them into the Champions League next season. Carrick’s early impact suggests the transformation is already underway.
