Manchester United came from behind to beat Arsenal 3-2 at the Emirates, with Mbeumo levelling, Dorgu’s decisive strike, and Cunha’s late winner, after Arsenal had taken the lead via a Lisandro Martinez own goal and were undone by a late spell of mislaid composure. Carrick’s interim spell already looks transformative, redeploying Dorgu effectively and boosting United’s countering threat, while Arsenal’s sloppy moments cost them as their title lead was trimmed to four points with 15 games left.
Danny Murphy argues United’s win at Arsenal shows a genuine shift: a formation that suits the players, a confident spine (Maguire, Casemiro) and a dynamic attack with Fernandes as the 10 behind Mbeumo, plus Diallo and Dorgu contributing from wing-back. Carrick’s management has increased cohesion and body language, enabling disciplined defending and effective counter-attacks that produced two goals and a late Cunha winner. Arsenal’s wobble and simultaneous subs disrupted their rhythm, making the result a potentially pivotal moment, though Murphy says it won’t necessarily define their season or United’s status as a challenger.
