Pogba, Matic and Fred responsible for Man United’s 2-0 defeat to Arsenal – Graeme
Liverpool legend, Graeme Souness, has said that Manchester United huffed and puffed for most of the period in the game which saw Arsenal sailed 2-0 against the Red Devils.
Souness has revealed that United’s midfielders, Paul Pogba, Nemanja Matic and Fred are to blame for the poor Premier League show on Sunday.
Goals from Granit Xhaka and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang gave Unai Emery’s men all three points against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side.
Speaking on Sky Sports, Souness said: “United huffed and puffed for a lot of that game. It wasn’t the United we have seen in recent weeks.
“I think the largest reason, the biggest reason why they didn’t start well was their midfield.
“I think their midfield were way off the pace: [Nemanja] Matic, Fred, and Pogba. You would have enjoyed playing against their midfield today because they didn’t get near anyone.”
