Carrick has done well, nobody can question that, the results are there. However, the problem would be expecting even more out of him. I am seeing United fans over at reddit requesting a title win finally , after many years without a title.

Now, I get that United won many titles and that is why wanting one more is normal for them but considering the shape of the team, if they are not even in top four, I would not be shocked. For a team that barely get out of relegation last year, to a team that is third place this year, I think the yare wanting too much, and should be happy with what they have. I do not get why Carrick should be considered bad, if he ends 6th for example, even that is good for a team like United.

Pep Guardiola is one man that would be pushing for such moves it he was to be their manager but now that he had left the club things will no longer be like before in terms of signing if players. The world cup is still on going and the new City manager may be eyeing some players but getting a player that will be giving Haaland those good passes may not be possible this time because other clubs are also in the market looking for such midfielders. Winning the league for 3 straight times will not be possible for any team this time because other teams have woken up and they will take up the challenge.

Manchester City will miss a very wonderful coach and he will be very hard to get type of Gudiola in Manchester city for now. The new coach will surly sigh some good players but guidiola will always be the best coach for Manchester City. What I can said is that Gudiola have keep good players in the team before he leaves and the new coach can enjoy them even without signing new players and they can do well in the premier league next season but is good to get more good players in the team so that your club can be more stronger then before.

I highly doubt the new coach will maintain the same strategy Guardiola used. Therefore, it's clear that the starting eleven Guardiola used won't be used by the new coach. He's the type of guy who likes to change the starting eleven all the time, even when he has a winning lineup. I saw that at Chelsea; he changed it constantly. Honestly, I don't see Manchester City finishing in the top four with this new coach. I see Manchester City falling much lower, just like during his time at Chelsea. If Manchester City had hired Mikel Arteta to replace Guardiola, I'd be convinced that Manchester City would have remained strong.

For sure the odd is always in Favour of the current champions, especially when they don’t sell their players, because the chemistry and understanding is still very there between players. Arsenal is a strong contender and a huge favorite to win the league again next season. They really did well last season in all competitions they played and I bet next season will be the same too.

You nailed it here bro. Most football fans have failed to understand that the most important thing in a team is chemistry and togetherness, and Mikel arteta's arsenal are the team that has been together the most in the English premier league, unlike Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool that will be having a new manager, that will need a lot of time for their players to get used to his playing pattern, so I believe that arsenal are in the best place to retain their title next season, if they can be as consistent as they were this past season.
