Manchester United 2-0 Manchester City | Tactical Analysis & Michael Carrick's "Quiet Decision"

Manchester United is scary again. In this video, we go beyond the goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Patrick Dorgu to uncover the tactical masterclass Michael Carrick used to dismantle Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

While the world expected the Amorim 3-back system, Carrick made one quiet decision that turned the Derby into a "Midfield Cage." We analyze how Kobbie Mainoo and Bruno Fernandes flourished in a new role, why Erling Haaland was held to zero shots on target for over an hour, and how United’s 4-2-3-1 shift effectively broke the City machine.

Why City's 70% possession was "Sterile Possession."

How Carrick proved Ruben Amorim wrong about Kobbie Mainoo.

The "Midfield Cage" tactic that silenced Rodri and Foden.

Why Arsenal should be terrified of the "New United."
