Andoni Iraola believes Manchester United are currently the most effective team within the Premier League ahead of Bournemouth’s game on Friday night.
Michael Carrick has taken charge of nine games with United up to now and has made a powerful impact with seven wins, two of which got here against Manchester City and Arsenal, one draw and one defeat.
United now sit third within the Premier League on 54 points, three points clear of fourth-placed Aston Villa, and are on track to secure a spot in next season’s Champions League.
Speaking ahead of United’s trip to the Vitality Stadium on Friday night, Iraola hailed Carrick’s impact and believes his side have been the standout performers within the Premier League since he replaced Ruben Amorim as manager in January.
‘I believe obviously they’re doing thoroughly, it’s not only the outcomes, this is clear, and something very objective, it’s just that they’re, for me, more solid,’ Iraola said on Thursday.
‘Because they’ve the identical threat offensively but they were the identical with Ruben [Amorim], they were scoring numerous goals, having numerous probabilities like they’re having now, but defensively they appear more solid, they haven’t conceded numerous goals, in the event you see the possibilities they concede in some games it’s ridiculous, they don’t concede probabilities numerous times, and the advance in points and feeling from this defensive solidity.
