"We have to face that and learn the lessons. United then play Forest in the return leg of their cup semi-final on the following Wednesday. Today we have to accept, learn the lessons and move on. As Jamie Redknapp referenced post-match, the Arsenal winger is currently performing at a world-class level and is entering the "unplayable" territory. There were moments on the break but we have to defend much better. "Just in terms of numbers, at the moment we have 15,16 outfield players and obviously it wasn't enough and they're going to help us. The Gunners return to Premier League action away to Everton on February 4, kick-off 12.30pm. He was the outstanding player on the night. "I think we deserve where we are because the way we are playing. And thank you to the crowd because it was an incredible evening to live with them. "This is a team, especially when they go in front, they are extremely difficult to play. It was as you were for Mikel Arteta as he named the same starting XI that won at Spurs.

Arsenal 3-2 Manchester United analysed: Are Arteta's men really ... (The Athletic)

The Athletic's writers analyse the Premier League meeting between Arsenal and Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium...

He is above Jesus in the goal stakes in all competitions this season but it was never just about finishing with the Brazilian and neither is it with the Londoner. Like another United signing this season, much has been made of Weghorst’s height, but the 6ft 6in (197cm) striker’s true value comes from his off-ball movement (he would frequently drop deep here to dispossess Thomas Partey from behind) and his positioning. Holding the width did allow Saka to drift inside and exploit Christian Eriksen’s limited mobility but he also looked a little shaky when pressed. The England right-back was on a booking, had struggled all game and would probably have become an ever-bigger target for Manchester United in the second half. Rather, Arsenal continued to be on the front foot, and it was their closing down of a Manchester United goal kick that ultimately brought their equaliser. From the very start of the match, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta could be seen remonstrating with his players, particularly White, demanding they show more composure when the ball broke to them. Therefore, Antony did not have much in the way of a highlights reel over on their right side, and was largely ineffective during his 71-minute stint. It was goal number 110 for the 25-year-old — he is 19th in the all-time club rankings — and one of his best yet. He quickly adjusted his body to hook Martin Odegaard’s ball into the net, rounding off a mature individual performance and sealing a momentous victory. The balance of risk and reward is crucial, as Arsenal were able to sustain an attack from pressing high during United’s poorly-executed short goal kick. [Marcus Rashford](https://theathletic.com/football/player/marcus-rashford-xgQlXcNj79jwXiD4/) gave United the early lead with a superb goal from long range, before Nketiah equalised by heading in a [Granit Xhaka](https://theathletic.com/football/player/granit-xhaka-701HGKSsMRGk4Bry/) cross. Like Fernandes’ goal against Crystal Palace at midweek, the strike was helped by a run ahead of it from new striker Wout Weghorst, who opened up a fraction more space with off-ball movement that occupied Arsenal’s centre-backs.

Eddie Nketiah's late goal settles thriller as Arsenal inch past ... (The Guardian)

Arsenal beat Manchester United 3-2 with a last minute decider in an exciting seesaw encounter.

It was Saka, though, who got Arsenal in front for 2-1, skating inside Shaw, trying his luck and hitting the jackpot when David De Gea could not get across to the far corner of his net. When it came, it was – in the words of Arteta – beautiful, electric and emotional. Ramsdale saved smartly from the irrepressible Rashford but then he blotted his copybook, coming for a Christian Eriksen corner through a crowd of his own players, nobody from United, and punching weakly. Scott McTominay – in ahead of Fred for the suspended and badly missed Casemiro – also extended the Arsenal goalkeeper on 29 minutes after a sweeping move. Rashford almost got in on a Fernandes pass but it was all Arsenal by now. What was noticeable after Rashford’s goal was the reaction of the home crowd. Ben White was booked for a scissors-style challenge on Rashford; the full-back would be substituted at half-time. There would be a long VAR check for a possible offside in the buildup but when it was cleared, the celebrations were wild. Martínez, still bandaged after catching a stray elbow in the 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace last Wednesday, was a symbol of their defiance. Arsenal’s belief was a huge part of it, together with their thirst for revenge after the 3-1 loss at Old Trafford last September – their only defeat of the league season. Since the restart after the World Cup, Nketiah has scored six goals in six appearances. And when it was over

The Chelsea deal involved the new owners paying £2.5 billion to purchase shares while committing a further £1.75 billion to invest in the club, particularly the stadium. “If you use the traditional method of valuing a club, which could be anywhere between eight to 10 times the revenue, that kind of US$5 billion number is probably on the lower end of it.” “Chelsea getting sold in 2022 means a rate has been established on the value of a Premier League club,” Joyce said.
