Arsenal Beat Manchester United One Nil

 

English Premier League is one of those elite football leagues where the players strive to play good football to attract the eyes of the football world. In the race of being the best team in the English Premier League Arsenal beat Manchester United with one goal against nil. The Red Devil had to face defeat against Paris Saint Germain and RB Leipzig in the Champions League match recently but their performance at Old Trafford was horrible as far as their reputation is concerned.


Though it is true that class is permanent but the form is temporary, Manchester United displayed a horrible display of their poor form inside the ground. The players seemed clueless in front of the attacks of Arsenal. It is their good fortune that they didn’t conceive more than one goal that too from a penalty shot. Man U has played 7 matches so far in this league and has earned only 3 victories only. One was a draw and they had to face defeat in the rest of the games. Thus the coach is very upset with the players. It has been seen from the start of the season that Manchester United is too much dependent on the front line players rather than the midfield.

Paul Ince says Manchester United can only dream about Harry Kane signing

 

Manchester United legend Paul Ince has said that the Red Devils can only dream about the possibility of signing Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur. The Mancunian giants have been linked with the England international on a regular basis this year but Ince does not believe the club have a chance of landing his services.


He told: “I cannot see Harry Kane to Manchester United happening. I can see him going, yes, and wanting to leave Tottenham, but not to join United. People keep saying that, but what they keep forgetting is they’ve got Marcus Rashford up front. He’s always wanted to play up front, but what you need to remember is he can also play off the left-hand side, as we’ve seen from plenty of his goals this season. So if you’re looking at Rashford left, Kane centre and Jadon Sancho on the right. It sounds pretty nice doesn’t it? But it probably sounds like a dream for a reason, it is a dream.”

Ferdinand defends Solskjaer after United’s FA Cup draw vs Wolves

Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has supported manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer following the Red Devils’ frustrating 0-0 draw at Wolverhampton Wanderers in the third round of the FA Cup. Both teams made multiple changes to the starting lineup for the Cup tie but the Red Devils were certainly the less efficient on the attack as they failed to muster a single shot on target.

As a result, there has already been widespread criticism from a number of fans over the outcome of the game but Ferdinand has defended his former teammate by stating that the inconsistency will remain present with a young squad at Solskjaer’s disposal, he told: “It was a better second half but both teams lacked quality in the final third especially. They huffed and puffed until the got to the final third, there wasn’t any quality into the box or into either front man for us to see a bit of magic. You never came off your seat once in the whole game. Not super clearly yet. I still think it’s a work in progress, the problem has been the inconsistency.”
