Arsenal have been given a serious warning by Manchester United. Not only did the visitors to Selhurst Park last night look like they were heading comfortably toward three points but their key midfielder Casemiro was on course to face the Gunners at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
In the space of 10 minutes that all changed though, after the Brazilian was yellow carded and a Michael Olise free kick stole the victory away from Erik ten Hag’s side. Arsenal will therefore not have to face the former Real Madrid man, whose fifth yellow card of the season earned him a suspension.
Arsenal have now received a warning of their own and have two players that could indeed also face suspension if they’re booked against United. Although the next test might be against relegation battlers Everton, with a new yellow card limit set after this fixture, the Gunners could avoid losing any player through a fifth yellow card offence in a pivotal season.
