Legendary manager points fingers at Man Utd players for the defeat to Man City

Everyone has their opinions about Manchester United's recent horrific performance against Manchester City, criticizing the players for their lack of defensive effort. Even Erik ten Hag said that his squad "lacks belief". At this point, nobody should defend any Red Devil that was on the field against the Citizens.

But not many have the credit to fully judge Manchester United players for their performance in the Manchester derby as the ex-Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger. The French legend pointed out the United players lacked defensive responsibility.

Also, he did say the only occasion they weren't responsible was when they conceded the second goal. There, the French defender Raphael Varane was out off the pitch injured. That time, Erling Haaland scored his first of three goals of the evening. Eriksen tried to mark him for a corner kick but the Norwegian moved enough to score in a header. 

His exact words:

When speaking to the press, Arsene Wenger was direct about the Red Devils' performance. "What was, for me, in that first half unbelievable, it was that Manchester United had defended so badly on the flanks. From the first minute, Dalot got a yellow card and Sancho and Antony didn't contribute defensively".
