Mikel Arteta and his men had just one target, a win win situation was all they privatized for and they captivated their scoring opportunity in the first halve. In the second halve, Gunners got under pressure and couldn't slash their chance, they fought for defensive display but was it good enough? Oh yeah we see how determined and fierce they were in the defenseless. Arsenal are competitors and EPL title contenders this season.
The game showed one thing that Arsenal's defense is still very solid this season because they were able to hold Manchester United who were on rampage on the attack for the entire 90 minutes and secure the very slim one goal lead. I was not very impressed with how Arsenal played but I believe the three points is a consolation and a way to start this season. Their next game is against Leeds, many of us will hope to see Arsenal play better football that we know them to be able to play.
Disappointing game from Chelsea, with those kind of attackers, they should be winning every game but I believe they will improve from that, there are a lot of good signs to take from the game, for Manchester United and Chelsea.
