Arsenal beat Manchester United 3-1 on Saturday, but former United midfielder Paul Scholes was upset with the actions of Gunners manager MIkel Arteta during ...
"The last four games are about pride for us," United midfielder Scott McTominay said after the game. "Obviously, after games like today, there is massive disappointment in the locker room. The result all but ended United's hopes of a top four finish, but some of Scholes' post-match comments focused on the opposing manager rather than his former club's flaws. Arsenal's penalty came around the half-hour mark, when Telles clattered into Saka inside the United box. That shouldn’t be allowed." However, Scholes wasn't impressed by Arteta's antics in the lead-up to the Gunners' spot-kick.
MANCHESTER UNITED were beaten 3-1 by Arsenal in Saturday's Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium.
Dominating them, creating issues, very vertical, and we managed to do that. The second of Cristiano was not offside. For me the Arsenal third was clearly offside. And things didn’t improve in north London, even if it was a better performance from Ralf Rangnick’s team. “At the start of the second half, again we had some problems to occupy some spaces that they are really good at, and they have so much quality to exploit. “I think it was a phenomenal game for the spectators and the fans,” he said.

Cristiano Ronaldo returns to the starting lineup after missing the Liverpool game on compassionate grounds. 3 mins to KO: Mikel Arteta has been emphasising the need for the fans to get behind the team ahead of this game, and they've clearly listened. A cross comes in which seems like it should be simple to deal with, but it beat the United centre halves and Telles couldn't deal with it. Elanga was put through on the right, and fired a shot at Aaron Ramsdale. That was followed by a corner from the right. The hosts saw most of the ball in the opening minutes. 11th min: Aaron Ramsdale's attempted pass is intercepted, and Bruno Fernandes takes a shot from the edge of area, with Ramsdale out of his goal. 19th min: Arsenal play out from a goal kick, finding Nketiah on the halfway line. 31st min: The referee goes across to the pitchside monitor. United will be licking their wounds after a 4-0 loss to Liverpool, and the mood at Old Trafford is bleak, despite the announcement of Erik ten Hag as next season's manager. The hosts were struggling for goals before they put four past Chelsea, and the Gunners look to have found their firepower just in time.
Manchester United captain Harry Maguire has been dropped by interim manager Ralf Rangnick for Saturday's Premier League match at Arsenal.
Maguire has endured a difficult week. I can only tell you, never in my life will I be part of Instagram. But Eric Bailly was not the man to replace Maguire in Rangnick's team to face Arsenal. Both defenders were named among the substitutes with Raphael Varane and Victor Lindelof starting at center-back.
Hello, and welcome to The Athletic's coverage of this afternoon's top-four Premier League battle between Arsenal and Manchester United.
It's wonderful play from Sancho to tee up Matic for the cross. 34' Arsenal 2-1 Man Utd 40' Arsenal 2-1 Man Utd De Gea is equal to it and parries it clear. His fierce effort is saved, though. Dalot is played in down the right and he tries to beat Ramsdale at his near post.
Erik ten Hag looks likely to be taking over a Manchester United team missing from the Champions League.
Ten Hag has a major job on his hands to rebuild United into the trophy-winning force of old. Saka went off injured midway through the second half but he had already done his damage by then. But instead of Ronaldo taking the spot kick, compatriot Bruno Fernandes took over and sent a weakly hit effort against the outside of the post following his trademark stuttering run-up. Obviously there is no substitute to success.” Then Saka scored a penalty for the second straight game — after doing so in the 4-2 win over Chelsea on Wednesday — after he was bundled over by Alex Telles. Eddie Nketiah pounced on the loose ball and converted his shot but was adjudged offside, only for VAR to spot the foul on Saka in the buildup. “That’s why it was still important to show some improvement and a reaction today, which was the case.
Arsenal's chaotic 3-1 victory over Manchester United underlined why the clubs vying for fourth place in the Premier League need it so desperately.
"But again, this is why we have a VAR, and you should expect if the referee plus the VAR check, they should in the end take the right decision. We were at least unlucky, but again, we have to get better at defending the box. If he is to be the focal point of a new United side, the 27-year-old has to find more efficiency in his play than this. "My belief is that we are going to give it a real go; we can win football matches, but the margins are going to be really small and we have to be very aware of that," Arteta said postmatch. But Fernandes was so wasteful in open play that the worst thing he could have done was turn his penalty into a pass, rolling the ball against Ramsdale's right-hand post. Neither team can be relied upon for any consistency if they continue to defend like this and yet, back-to-back wins -- following three consecutive defeats -- elevated Arsenal into fourth place ahead of Tottenham's trip to Brentford later in the day.
