⚽ Premier League 2025/2026 Discussion Thread ⚽

[Nightwatchmare]

Watching this Everton - Manchester United already is hinting to be a low scoring game.. from the temple that has been set I think we shall be lucky to see more than 2 goals this evening, but a United win is highly favoured especially that they are chasing European football ⚽ which they have been missing participation for the longest time and Chelsea is a position above that they will leapfrog with a win today.

The match is about to end and Manchester United is 1-0 ahead of Everton, they can no longer score more goals because Everton has a game that can keep up with Manchester United, this is a match that has low goals, only 1 single goal in the match that we can see, before I thought at least Manchester United could score 3 goals while Everton 1 Goal it was not that easy in this match, the defense owned by Everton is very strong which makes Bruno and others difficult to attack.

Benjamin Sesko the power sub delivers Carrick's team again tonight as Manchester United continues their unbeaten run in the premier League. Cunha delivered the excellent pass to Mbeumo who's assist to Sesko was more beautiful than the goal and that's what you get when your team is over pressing like Everton did in the second half leaving behind defensive loopholes that was fast exploited by Manchester United. They now seat comfortably in the 4th position, only 3 points behind Aston Villa.

Benjamin Sesko won it for Manchester United against stubborn Everton. Benjamin Sesko has scored 5 goals this year from the bench. Michael Carrick should start giving Benjamin Sesko more minutes for him to score more goals for Manchester United and help Manchester United qualify for the champions league. Mbeumo did great in assisting Benjamin Sesko but Benjamin Sesko goal against Everton was more beautiful than Mbeumo's assist, because Benjamin Sesko was in a difficult position but he still scored from the position.

I will admit that I'm also impressed with Michael Carrick performance for raising the bar for Manchester United, 6 games unbeaten is what the club have all dream about, although I'm not too satisfied in the way they made away with Everton. I wanted it early, it's not like Everton is that good to be in good position to oppress Manchester United but in that game, they did oppress them and their defensive style matches that of Manchester United the entire time.

And everyone are looking very happy to how Michael Carrick have been making Manchester united do better because have 6 unbeaten record have shown that they are doing better than how they had been doing and the only thing I noticed in the game of Manchester united and Everton was that it was not even easy at all but they were able to win despite not winning early and the wah the game was going I was not that sure if Manchester will still win but they were still able to win the game and that is the most important thing win is what shows strength and more.

They are now at the top 4 among the men, with one more extra match win they should be able to sit and dine with Aston vIlla. It's because they have been having bad game and result is why they have not been moving. The best they can do now is to take over that spot and push more so that even if we know they can't win the League, they can take a better place in the table and at least make show in the Champions League next coming season.

This is the same Manchester united that we looked down upon and there best decision they made was to change there coach and that is the only way that there performance has been able to be different and just that Aston Villa need to be very careful of Manchester united because Aston Villa is just 2 points ahead of Manchester united and I feel like this will happen soon Aston Villa will lose that position to Manchester united.

Manchester United should return to the UEFA Champions League because many other teams this season are way weaker than them and advancing in stage. They improved a lot on my opinion. I used to search for Manchester United at the bottom of the table near Spurs but they are now in the 4th place but they aren't far from the 3rd but also from the 5th place because Chelsea can claim their spot once they win and Manchester United lose the game.

Mbeumo did great in assisting Benjamin Sesko but Benjamin Sesko goal against Everton was more beautiful than Mbeumo's assist, because Benjamin Sesko was in a difficult position but he still scored from the position.

As much as I want to agree with you, I think some players play better coming off the bench and United has had such players.. and if I remember Sesko has been tried to play the whole game and has shown to be inefficient.. better he starts off the bench for now but with Mbeumo out **speculating** I think this wish could become a reality... Let's wait and see.

Since Manchester United struggled last season and almost finished in the relegation zone, it raised plenty of concern about Manchester United being able to challenge for the premier league title this season or qualifying for the champions league next season, so everyone is supposed to be happy as Michael Carrick has been able to stabilize Manchester United's performance and increased Manchester United chances of finishing in the top four this season, and as for Manchester United scoring late against Everton, it is not a big deal since the goal ensured that Manchester United collected 3 points from Everton.

Manchester united won 1-0 and by a good performance. This would be everton first game against manchester united since michael carrick became coach. The game was exciting since the both team had now lost against each other at their homes. Manchester united previouly lost 1-0 to everton at old trafford  this game.everton were the host team yet manchester united still won them 0-1. Manchester united has overtaken chelsea to the fourth place in the table after securing a successful three points against everto

Everton played very well, but Manchester United was better than Everton, an exciting match where Carrick has indeed brought a huge change to Manchester United, this victory brought them to 4th place in the league standings, and now they will take a much better position to catch up with Aston Villa, I am very sure that Manchester United's performance growth will continue, now they have 48 points and Aston Villa 51 points, it is not difficult to catch up, especially Aston Villa has more burdens, especially their Europa League which is one of their targets.

Benjamin Sesko won it for Manchester United against stubborn Everton. Benjamin Sesko has scored 5 goals this year from the bench. Michael Carrick should start giving Benjamin Sesko more minutes for him to score more goals for Manchester United and help Manchester United qualify for the champions league. Mbeumo did great in assisting Benjamin Sesko but Benjamin Sesko goal against Everton was more beautiful than Mbeumo's assist, because Benjamin Sesko was in a difficult position but he still scored from the position.

Sometimes the style of play a manager is using determines when a player is supposed to be started in a game, if the pattern he uses favors him more for Benjamin Sesko to always start from the bench, let it be like that and not try to force some other methods that won’t yield them good results. Everton may be a stubborn team, but Sesko have shown them to be a ruthless type they won’t want to get at in the field. I like Manchester United consistency so far, I just hope they can keep up with that performance and get to finish in the top four of the table which will give them a chance to represent in the champions league, one which they’ve not got to play in for a very long time now.

Manchester United should return to the UEFA Champions League because many other teams this season are way weaker than them and advancing in stage.

Manchester United performance has increased drastically, they are currently in 4th position which is really nice. Since Manchester United changed their coach, we all can see that there is a significant changes in Manchester United performance, they are beginning to win matches continuously unlike when their formal coach was still with them.

If Manchester United can continue with their good performance, then they going to qualify for the champions league, but before they going to achieve that, they have to be consistent in the matches which they are having left, they should try and get a win in most of those matches.

Am really not a fan of Man United fan but this there trajectory from this there last 6 games is very impressive, out of there 6 past games, they have won 5 and drew just one that's 16 points in 6 games I know it's quite common but coming from a new coach in England, it's very recommendable.

The match up against Everton was a match I thought they would eventually draw but Carrick proved me wrong again, once again a life saving goal from Sesko.

Manchester United should return to the UEFA Champions League because many other teams this season are way weaker than them and advancing in stage. They improved a lot on my opinion. I used to search for Manchester United at the bottom of the table near Spurs but they are now in the 4th place but they aren't far from the 3rd but also from the 5th place because Chelsea can claim their spot once they win and Manchester United lose the game.

Should, Manchester United won 5 of 6 games is great performance and has bigger chance will return to UEFA Champion League next season. Michael Carrick is difference manager for Manchester United as usually man manager failed but last 6 games in premier league still not loss yet, I am optimistic for Manchester United will finish at Champion League spot because the second half season Man United have played two top teams Arsenal and Manchester City. Regarding 11 matches left in premier league, Manchester United only has 2 difficult match by facing Chelsea and Liverpool if can win this crucial match will easy for break to 3rd position or possibility stop Arsenal dominance at top standings.

[Adiljutt156]

Another real good win for this Manchester United under the coaching of M.Carrick it is a hard team to beat Everton on their stadium so is a worthy victory.

Aside of that i cant believe how this team can be just 3 points far from the podium positions, is just incredible, a few months back they were among the worst teams and sacking their coach for the eleven time.

Premier League matches are on and we are watching the match with full concentration as all teams are giving full effort to win the match and they have excellent players who are capable to give tough time. We saw similar situation in the the match between Manchester United football team and Everton football team because match was not one sided and both teams gave excellent effort in this match but Manchester United team won this match because they did goal in the second half of the match and sesko was a only person who did first goal in this match and no other player could do any goal in this match and their stats was comparatively good and their shots were more in number and these were 11 in this match and only 2 shots were on target.

Mbeumo did great in assisting Benjamin Sesko but Benjamin Sesko goal against Everton was more beautiful than Mbeumo's assist, because Benjamin Sesko was in a difficult position but he still scored from the position.

Benjamin Sesko has become a goal machine since Carrick took over. He's currently the best supersub in the Premier League. I don't know why Carrick didn't put Sesko in the starting XI after his impressive performances in recent games. But some people on social media said Carrick wanted Sesko as a supersub because he wanted to drain the defenders' stamina with Mbeumo. Then Sesko came in and with his speed and physicality, he could wreak havoc on opposing defenses. Well, that's just a social media comment. But on the other hand, I don't think Carrick can bench Mbeumo because he's also performing very well. Unless Carrick changes the formation to two strikers, but it seems Manchester United are comfortable playing with their current formation.

Watching this Everton - Manchester United already is hinting to be a low scoring game.. from the temple that has been set I think we shall be lucky to see more than 2 goals this evening, but a United win is highly favoured especially that they are chasing European football ⚽ which they have been missing participation for the longest time and Chelsea is a position above that they will leapfrog with a win today.

Cunha delivered the excellent pass to Mbeumo who's assist to Sesko was more beautiful than the goal and that's what you get when your team is over pressing like Everton did in the second half leaving behind defensive loopholes that was fast exploited by Manchester United. They now seat comfortably in the 4th position, only 3 points behind Aston Villa.

Benjamin Sesko is starting to rediscover his best form under Carrick. Sesko is enjoying a good momentum, and Carrick should have started him because he was able to overcome Manchester United's difficulties in breaking down a tight defense, such as in the Everton match where Manchester struggled to break down a tight Everton defense, but as soon as Sesko came off the bench, he immediately scored the winner. If Carrick had started Sesko, perhaps he would have scored more goals for Manchester United. But regardless of the debate over whether Sesko will start or not, the important thing now is that I am happy because Manchester United's performance is improving again and they are likely to qualify for the Champions League next season.

If I am not mistaken, with Manchester united already in the 4th position in the Premier league table, they already qualified to be in the champions league so long as they can maintain this 4th position or better still climb up to 3rd, 2nd or even 1st until this season of the premier league is over.

The 4th position which Manchester united just claimed after beating Everton I believe won't be too hard for them to  maintain and possibly get better, infact, looking at Aston villa in the 3rd place, I think Manchester united will soon over take Aston villa to claim that 3rd position in the premier league table because Aston villa has been very inconsistent lately.

This is how the standings look after all matches have been played.

Great job by Manchester United of course! It wasn't easy for them. After watching the second half I didn't believe in them to win at all honestly. But they managed to keep the advantage until the end. 

It still sounds really interesting that they are ahead of Liverpool and Chelsea both. Because of not being used to seeing it for years I guess. But there are still 11 more weeks to go! We will see if Carrick manages to carry his team to the Champions League.

The top six gets all of the attention on here,  they're not majorly talked bout until they win a big side or find a way to draw.

Scary times indeed for clubs like West Ham United, Nottingham Forest and also Tottenham Hotspur, if positve results are not gotten from the next few games, then, one of these three mentioned, will seal thei place amongst the relegation positions. Bye Wolverhampton, it's over for them now, they have sealed themselves as the Championship candidates for next season.

Some players have a greater impact when they come on as substitutes. Perhaps Sesko wouldn't have been as effective if he had started in the first eleven. He came on as a substitute and knew how to take advantage of the tired defense. He's a very talented and young player, and I'm sure he'll have even better times in his future Manchester United career. I believe in his quality. I definitely think he's a good signing.

[Catenaccio]

If I am not mistaken, with Manchester united already in the 4th position in the Premier league table, they already qualified to be in the champions league so long as they can maintain this 4th position or better still climb up to 3rd, 2nd or even 1st until this season of the premier league is over.

The 4th position which Manchester united just claimed after beating Everton I believe won't be too hard for them to  maintain and possibly get better, infact, looking at Aston villa in the 3rd place, I think Manchester united will soon over take Aston villa to claim that 3rd position in the premier league table because Aston villa has been very inconsistent lately.

They are good with this temporary rank but this position might be taken over by other clubs if Manchester United won't maintain good performances and results in remaining matches. There are 11 more matches and Manchester United have only 3 points more than Chelsea and Liverpool, which are not safe difference. They already did good improvements with Michael Carrick so that they are at the fourth position but the task to defend this position till the season ending is not easy.

Chelsea and Liverpool are aiming at the fourth position while their quality and experience for competing with Manchester United till the end. If Manchester United make mistake and lose points, they will have very high risk of losing a fourth position to either Chelsea or Liverpool. With these big clubs, be eligible for UEFA Champions League is very important for their club especially in finance.

I used to search for Manchester United at the bottom of the table near Spurs but they are now in the 4th place but they aren't far from the 3rd but also from the 5th place because Chelsea can claim their spot once they win and Manchester United lose the game.

Manchester United's recent form is on the rise, as we all know. The players are shining. Every player tries their best as soon as they come on the pitch. I missed seeing them in the Champions League. Most likely, we will see Manchester United again in the Champions League next year. The Manchester United we are used to is exactly the team playing now. Manchester United is a significant team that poses a threat to every opponent right now. Carrick has the biggest share in this.

[koang]

Carrick Ball is to impress, even for the haters. So happy for him.
But I wouldn't say he deserves a permanent job. Ole pulled the same result as interim, and we all know what happened after he was made permanent. Need more time...
And United have to give Amorim credit too for cleaning out the non-performing players, bringing Lammens, Cunha, Mbuemo, and Sesko, who quite literally won this game. Glad to see United going to the Champions League next season!

Now Man United are on a different level, they have never lost during Carrick coaching era. As one of the players who inherited Alex Ferguson's DNA, he managed to find a way to overcome teams that use total defensive tactics. Carrick Man United playing style reminds me of Alex Ferguson time as manager. When facing a team that uses a parking-the-bus strategy, they try to play patiently while waiting for the right moment for a counter-attack.

They managed to collect 16 points from 6 matches, only losing 2 points, that is an extraordinary achievement in my opinion. In their next match, they will welcome the 13th-ranked team (Crystal Palace). I hope they win again to maintain their fourth position.

Absolutely, the dark days are gone. Carrick's got the squad buzzing, turning suffering into pure pride. People don’t realise how much of an impact being around a great legend has on the developing players, and Fergie is his role model. So, it's no surprise to me that Carrick's tactics are heavily inspired by Fergie's style.

The next match against Crystal Palace will not be an easy one. I hope Sesko can play from the start.

Michael Carrick has done a great job with Manchester united and I must confess that I am really impressed with him. Since taking over Manchester United has been playing way better and has not lost a match. If they continue this way,  I think Manchester United will secure a champions league position and I hope they keep Michelle Carrick at the club, because I will like to see how he performs in a full season, but for now I am really impressed with what he has done so far with the team.
