Sir Alex Ferguson's sarcastic remarks about Arsenal are suspected.

Legendary Sir Alex Ferguson apparently had some rather negative comments about Arsenal after the English team's defeat to PSG in the Champions League final.

Ferguson sent a congratulatory message to PSG.

In the final held in Budapest on the night of May 30th, Arsenal had the opportunity to win the Champions League for the first time in their history. However, Mikel Arteta's team could not fulfill their dream, allowing PSG to equalize 1-1 before losing on penalties.

According to leading French newspaper L'Equipe , Alex Ferguson reportedly sent congratulations to PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi immediately after the match. The source claims the former Manchester United manager called Arsenal a boring team, and also suggested that PSG's opponents only knew how to defend throughout the game.

If the information is accurate, this would be a highly controversial comment, especially considering Arsenal just had a successful season winning their first Premier League title in over two decades.

However, journalist Ben Jacobs denies Alex Ferguson used the word "boring" to describe Arsenal. According to him, the message's true meaning was simply a compliment to PSG, stating: "You are a team that plays real football."

Although the truth remains unclear, Arsenal has been the subject of debate regarding their playing style. Many experts and opponents believe that Mikel Arteta's team prioritizes defensive solidity over attacking flair. This was partly reflected in the final, where Arsenal controlled possession for less than 25% of the match and had only one shot on target throughout the entire game.

Arteta himself admitted that the team needed to change if they wanted to conquer the European stage. After the match, the Spanish strategist affirmed that Arsenal would soon reassess the entire season and make important decisions to elevate the team.
