Paul Scholes believes Christian Eriksen should have done more to stop Bukayo Saka’s long-range strike in Manchester United’s 3-2 defeat to Arsenal.
The England star shifted past the Dane before launching the strike past David de Gea from 25 yards to put the hosts 2-1 up early in the second half. Eriksen had been jockeying Saka, keeping his distance to prevent a quick take-on.
But in doing so, he allowed his opponent to create space to his right and fire an arrowed effort into the bottom corner. Scholes was critical of the United midfielder and suggested he should have done more to stop the shot.
