‘They didn’t contribute’ – Arsene Wenger blames these three Man United stars for 6-3 defeat to Man City
Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has blamed Manchester United trio Diogo Dalot, Jadon Sancho and Antony for Manchester United’s 6-3 defeat at Manchester City on Sunday.
“What is for me unbelievable in the first half is that Man United has defended so badly on the flanks,” Wenger said via beIN Sports.
“From the first minute Dalot got a yellow card, and Sancho and Antony did not contribute defensively.
“They were, in the whole half, flooded on the flanks and they were always in trouble.
“After that, when they had the ball, I felt they were obsessed by respecting too much the game plan.
“They wanted always to go too quickly forward and lost so many balls and didn’t have enough possession.
“They didn’t play for possession, they wanted just to get on the counter-attack.”
