Manchester United are “well short” of the quality required to compete for the Premier League title and their 3-2 defeat by Arsenal should come as a “reality check”, according to Roy Keane.
United took the lead at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday but ended up losing, with Eddie Nketiah scoring a 90th-minute winner. Marcus Rashford powered in a stunning opener from distance and Lisandro Martinez stooped to nod in a looping header, but United could not keep the Gunners at bay.
Nketiah headed in after Aaron Wan-Bissaka switched off and Bukayo Saka cut inside Christian Eriksen to curl into the bottom corner before Nketiah flicked in the late winner. Arsenal re-established their five-point lead at the top of the Premier League, while United remained fourth, 11 points behind their opponents.
