Maguire: Carrick has brought a whole new energy to the team.


Manchester United secured a 3-2 victory over Arsenal in a key Premier League match of Round 23, thanks to goals from Mbourneau, Patrick Doughoo, and Cunha. Maguire stated that manager Carrick has brought new energy to the "Red Devils" and united all the players.


In the 29th minute, Ødegaard received a lobbed pass from Saka and fired a shot that deflected off Lisandro's foot and into the net, giving Arsenal a 1-0 lead. In the 37th minute, Mbourneau intercepted the ball and slotted it home to equalize for Manchester United at 1-1.


In the 50th minute of the second half, Patrick Dougher received a pass from Bruno Fernandes and scored, giving Manchester United a 2-1 lead over Arsenal. In the 84th minute, Merino broke through Manchester United's goal in a scramble, leveling the score at 2-2 for Arsenal.


Three minutes later, Kobe Menu passed the ball to Cunha, who then scored with a long-range shot. Ultimately, Manchester United defeated Arsenal 3-2 at the Emirates Stadium. It's worth noting that Manchester United also defeated Manchester City 2-0 in the previous round's Manchester derby. With two consecutive wins, Manchester United currently sits in 4th place in the standings with 38 points.


Manchester United defender Harry Maguire said, "Carrick has brought a whole new energy to the team since he came in, and the whole team has really come together. These two games were very tough, and people generally thought we wouldn't get many points from them, but we won both, which is really amazing."


“Our squad is much larger now, with players returning from the Africa Cup of Nations back in the squad, plus players like Cunha who can come off the bench. I’m sure he wasn’t happy sitting on the bench for several games in a row. I know his personality; he wants to play. But I have to admit, he played a decisive role in both of those games.”


Maguire continued, "He changed the game as soon as he came on against Manchester City, and it was the same in this game. He was once again the one who decided the outcome, which shows the depth and attacking talent we have now."


In addition, Manchester United striker Cunha said in an interview, "I know the strength of this team, everyone is capable of playing, and everyone certainly wants to participate in the game."


"But the most important decision is how to help the team. Coming here, you have to give your all every minute you're on the court, and help the team and your teammates. I think we did a great job."
