Erik ten Hag reveals reasons for Defeat to Arsenal

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag attributed their 1-0 loss to Arsenal on Sunday to injuries and a lapse in focus, marking their second consecutive defeat this week.

Leandro Trossard secured the sole goal at Old Trafford, propelling the Gunners to victory.

Kai Havertz’s onside position, facilitated by Casemiro, led to Trossard converting his cross for the decisive goal.

Ten Hag, missing key players like Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford, remarked, “Today we did. When you’re missing seven starting players, we are competitive with one of the best teams in the league.”

He emphasized the importance of execution and maintaining the right attitude and press, noting that a minor mistake by a midfielder had significant consequences.
