Michael Carrick’s Manchester United reign was one of two very distinct halves, but only Arsenal and Manchester City won more Premier League points than him.
Since taking charge in January, the 44-year-old oversaw 27 Premier League matches, winning 13, drawing eight and losing six.
That’s 47 points at an average of 1.74 per game – the sort of rate that would equate to 66 points, which is borderline top four but probably some way off a title charge. Only City scored more goals than the Red Devils in Carrick’s time.
There is, however, a little more context to that remarkable run now. United won just one of their 10 Premier League matches so far in 2026-27, leaving them 18th in the table.
Still, you look at the likes of Liverpool (6th), Chelsea (8th), Aston Villa (10th), Newcastle United (15th) and Tottenham (16th) and are reminded that the picture could be a whole lot worse.
Here’s the breakdown of the Premier League table since Carrick took charge in January.
