  "account": "Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has expressed personal impact from Manchester City's recent guilty verdict for breaching the Premier League's financial rules. City is now appealing last week's verdict, which found the club in violation of financial regulations from 2009 to 2018. Carrick, a former United player who lost the Premier League title to City in the 2011/12 and 2017/18 seasons, hinted at feeling aggrieved by the scandal. He stated that the situation is unprecedented and has affected him in various ways. Carrick emphasized the need for a swift resolution to the City appeal, warning that sanctions could include severe points deductions, expulsion from the Premier League, or even the stripping of previous titles. While Carrick believes a belated medal would not hold the same significance after so much time has passed, he stressed that the crave for victory and the moment of winning remains essential in sports. Carrick also mentioned his personal desire for a win to divert focus from his own future following United's poor start to the season, currently sitting in 12th place with only one win from five games ahead of their upcoming match against Tottenham.",
