"Interim manager Michael Carrick has breathed new life into Manchester United upon his return to Old Trafford, reinvigorating several perennial strugglers. Although West Ham United ended Carrick's flawless record in his first four Premier League games in charge of the club, the 1-1 draw at the London Stadium was enough to keep the Red Devils in the top four. Three potential England internationals found themselves in the starting line-up in that match, including Kobbie Mainoo, who has undergone a renaissance under Carrick."
"Meanwhile, Harry Maguire suffered a knock in the second half, forcing the 44-year-old manager to take him off in favour of Leny Yoro, while casting doubt on his availability for the upcoming international break. Thomas Tuchel's men begin preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup next month with a pair of friendlies against Japan and Uruguay, looking to build on a perfect qualifying campaign."
