Three Premier League talking points
Michael Carrick is on the brink of the sack at Man Utd as Arsenal draw level on points with leaders Man City while Tottenham Hotspur continue their revival.
Three key talking points emerged from this weekend's Premier League matches. First, Manchester United's future appeared uncertain with the potential departure of manager Michael Carrick. The Cherries secured a 3-0 victory over United at Old Trafford, ending their eight-game winless streak. Carrick's exit seemed inevitable, but a 13-year tenure and seven managers had not yet reversed the club's decline.
Second, Arsenal demonstrated their set-piece prowess by moving level on points with leaders Manchester City. While Arsenal had scored from set-pieces last season, they hadn't done so in eight top-flight games this campaign. Mikel Arteta attributed this change to the team's improved belief and Nico Jover's set-piece coaching.
Lastly, Tottenham's manager Roberto De Zerbi won the affection of his players following a 2-0 win against Chelsea. After a slow start to the season, De Zerbi's tactical approach and signings helped the team secure a significant victory, ending their winless start and banishing their "house of horrors" reputation at Chelsea.
