Welcome into the latest edition of ESPNFC. I'm Dan Thomas. Look at this. Everyone's here.

Shacket here. It's not pre-burning. Steve E. Nichol will kick things off, shall we?

0:11.6

With Arsenal's clash against Manchester United. What an ending. This game had. It would be

0:17.0

a nice idea to open the scoring nice strike from Marcus Rashford. Immediately, though,

0:21.1

Oda Guard would get the equaliser. They thought they scored later on. Garnacho had the

0:25.6

ball in the back of the net. He was just off side and then two late goals. The first of

0:29.7

weeks from Declan Rice and a nice finish from Jesus would see Arsenal win by three goals to one.

For more on this, Nathan Manoeu, joins us from England. We're here from Nathan Manoeu.

Craig, this is a bit of a weird game one. Well, where do you want to start? There's so many

0:43.6

stories. I think we just start off with the overall match because a draw could have actually been

they ended up with Harry McGuire and Johnny Evans, who have had to give a one-year contract

1:09.6

at 36, because they're short in numbers. Diego Dallow playing left back. Who actually thought

1:14.3

they did really well? He is one of the problems. United, a track of pass-to-ball out from the back.

1:19.3

And I've got two defenders at the moment that can't pass-to-ball, lindle off and want to be

1:23.0

soccer. So that's a problem straight away. But in terms of the game and Arsenal, I thought they

1:30.2

hoffing the puff, but they're not convincing. And you know what I'm going to say here,

1:36.6

Michel Attetta, and they've won the game, and it's three points. But he's got a couple of weeks

1:43.8

of an international break to try and figure out how he gets off this Kai Havett's train.
