Mikel Arteta asked to respect Manchester United

DBasia.news – Arsenal’s winning record must be stopped in the hands of Manchester United during the 2022-2023 Premier League. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta was also asked to show more respect for Manchester United.

Arsenal arrived with high confidence in the match that took place at Old Trafford, Sunday (4/9). It can not be separated from their status as the top standings with perfect points.

Arsenal then dominated most of the game. However, the club from North London had to accept the fact that they were defeated by a score of 1-3.

Arteta responded to the defeat quite harshly. He felt that the referee was responsible for annulling Arsenal’s first goal scored by Gabriel Martinelli at the start of the match.

With the help of VAR, the referee judged Martin Odegaard to have committed a foul on Christian Eriksen. However, Arteta assesses that the incident is still doubtful to be called a violation.

In addition, Arteta thinks his team deserves at least one point. Possession of the ball with a percentage of 61% despite playing as being the reason.

However, Arteta’s actions angered Manchester United legend, Roy Keane. These arguments were considered disrespectful acts by the manager to the opponent.

“I’m sick of all their excuses. Arteta was interviewed after the game and for me he’s a loser like all of us,” Keane told Sky Sports.

“He has to give a little credit to Manchester United and he never did. Don’t make excuses.”

Although oppressed, Manchester United also didn’t win by luck. The quick counter-attack scheme in fact made Arsenal have to concede three goals.

This proves that Manchester United has the quality to compete with other big teams. It is possible that Arsenal’s position at the top of the standings will soon be overtaken.
