After a hard-fought Premier League match, fans of both Manchester United and Arsenal shared their thoughts on the game, which saw Arsenal claim a narrow 1-0 victory. Here’s what the supporters had to say:
Manchester United Fans
Richard: “I agree with Ruben Amorim – we were clearly the better team and deserved something from the game. In the end, it was a story of two goalkeepers. It’s brutal to say, but it’s clear that winning the title by 2028 will need a different person between the posts.”
Danyal: “For the first time in a while, it was a strange feeling after defeat. We played well and should’ve probably taken at least a point from this game! The new signings have definitely shown why they were brought in, but we still need to strengthen that midfield before the window closes – otherwise, it will always be a mismatch. Regardless, let’s move on to the next match. This is a long season, but the signs are there.”
Jonathan: “United were superb. Huge improvements from the ineptitude of last season. Terrible from our keeper, although it could have been a foul. Arsenal got very lucky, particularly with the obvious penalty for Cunha. Better days are definitely ahead. We all need to hold our nerve and back our charismatic and capable manager.”
Arsenal Fans
Matt: “Don’t judge too soon – only look at the league after the first seven or eight games. Better to start slow while picking up points than peak too early. Martinelli offers little threat, and Saka still hasn’t hit his best form since his return from injury last season. But we’ll come good.”
June: “Same old, same old. If Gyokeres is going to play up front, they have to change the way they get the ball to him. He needs balls he can run onto because he’s a proper centre-forward. He’s not going to come to get the ball, so they have to deliver it.”
Kevin: “All in all, a good result. Three points at Old Trafford is never easy. Saka and Martinelli are under-performing and becoming very predictable. We need to adapt to the strengths of our new players. But I still feel very optimistic for the future. It’s early days yet, but I can see the potential, especially with young players like Max Dowman coming through.”
Final Thoughts
The reaction from both sets of fans is a blend of optimism and frustrations. United supporters feel their team performed well but are frustrated with individual mistakes, particularly in goal. Arsenal fans are cautiously optimistic but are also aware of some ongoing issues, particularly in attack. Both teams look forward to what the rest of the season holds, with hope for improvement as the campaign progresses.
