In recent times as a guest at Emirates Stadium, MU did not have good results. "Red Devils" have failed in 4 consecutive matches and only scored 3 goals in the net of "Gunners". The MU squad became even more fragile in this match when Varane and Luke Shaw were injured. Although MU added rookies like Sergio Reguillon, Sofyan Amrabat on the last day of the transfer market, it did not make the fans feel secure.
Arsenal is unbeaten in the Premier League with 2 wins and 1 draw. In addition to the unfortunate absence of Jurrien Timber and Thomas Partey, coach Mikel Arteta has a very strong squad.
Declan Rice, the player who cost Arsenal £105 million, continues to be positioned as the lowest player in midfield. He proved to be capable enough to play in Thomas Partey's position. The English player coordinated the ball extremely well and helped the "Gunners" completely dominate the midfield. Not only excellent on the defensive front, Declan Rice's many high-ups also made MU's defense struggle to defend. At minute 90+6, he personally scored accurately, bringing a 2-1 advantage to the home team.

In the previous 90 minutes, Arsenal also showed their superiority over MU. "The Gunners" were no longer attacking, but they played well, made many coordination phases to make MU completely bear the match. Despite being led by MU when Rashford had a class in the 27th minute, coach Mikel Arteta's students still played calmly and brought the advantage. Captain Odegaard's 1-1 equalizer in the 29th minute and Gabriel Jesus' 3-1 goal in the last minute of injury time of the second half after the "dancing" phases in front of the MU defense are clear evidence. best for that.
The 3-1 win over MU also helped Arsenal climb to 4th place with 10 points. Notably, this was the 5th consecutive victory of the "Gunners" against MU in the English Premier League. After the match, midfielder Declan Rice affirmed that if they keep their current confidence, they are ready to challenge for the championship title in any arena.
Arsenal proved their maturity by playing calmly against MU
MU still plays sporadically and lacks ideas in attack like previous matches. The most awaited rookie of the "Red Devils", Hojlund entered the field in the second half but did not leave any mark.
MU has now fallen to 11th place. After the FIFA Days series, they will face challenges named Brighton, Burnley and Crystal Palace. Coach Erik ten Hag's students will have to improve a lot if they want to compete for a position in the top 1 in the Premier League this season.
Coach Erik ten Hag was certainly not satisfied with losing to Arsenal
