Gary Neville and Arsene Wenger laid the blame for Manchester United's dismal 6-3 mauling in the Manchester derby at the feet of two different sets of players.
Former Arsenal manager Wenger slammed the defensive performances of Diogo Dalot, Jadon Sancho and Antony, while ex-Red Devils captain Neville believes that the "negative vibes" from Scott McTominay, Christian Eriksen, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford allowed bitter rivals City to run riot on Sunday. As Erling Haaland and Phil Foden both bagged sublime hat-tricks, Wenger took aim at United's wide players after the humiliating loss.
"What is for me unbelievable in the first half is that Man United has defended so badly on the flanks," the Frenchman lamented on 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."
