Reaction to the Emirates demolition
Phil McNulty: Manchester United Expose Leaking Arsenal
“He [Wenger] complained about United's
‘anti football’ after defeat at Old Trafford earlier in the season, but he
could make no such claims here. This was prolonged, painful punishment
inflicted by United's mastery and Arsenal had no answer.”
Richard Williams: Manchester United performance caps their best 10 days since 1999
“Now, at a time when his squad and his
stewardship have been facing criticism, United have put together a
mini-sequence of results that launches them towards the latter stages of the season
with their morale at a new peak.”
Henry Winter: Arsenal 1 Manchester United 3
“Yesterday’s game saw the broadcasters
experiment with 3D glasses for fans watching on special screens. If the punters
were seeing things clearly, United resembled a blur of high-speed movement to
Arsenal. The champions were too quick, too hungry and too organised.”
RoM: Reaction
“In our last game at the Emirates we were
really stretched at times, having to pay a lot of attention to our defensive
game as well as our attack. Today though, we came for them time and again, even
when we could have sat back and settled. We were hungry for it, playing our
attacking football and always searching for another goal.
another example, in a long line, to show him as the best manager around.”
first goal, Clichy and Nasri put in a sandwich tackle that was about as tough
and crunching as a WeightWatchers light tuna and sweetcorn ready-made, softly
tickling the winger's dainty feet as he airily minced away from the touchline…The
second goal was even more embarrassing…The third goal was one of the worst
pieces of defending I have ever seen from an Arsenal team.”
