"We understood the start of the game was going to be like that as much as we tried to turn the momentum in our favour. I think we understood how the game was going to go and the flow of it. I thought we started to take the ball and connections through the pitch, had that composure and a few moments gaining a bit of confidence as well."
"We were having a decent spell and seemed to be coming into the game when they scored, which was disappointing. Again, we showed the character to come back and there were stages in the game where you have to defend. They make you defend the box really and it's challenging at times, but I thought we had enough in the game to keep believing in the confidence and I always fancied us to score."
"Today, coming away we had to create own energy between us, and the away fans in the corner were incredible. There's that element, playing away from home and understanding the phases of the game really, how it's going to develop and being patient, be disciplined at the right time. We took the ball well at times and played forward and really positive and got rewards from it."
Manchester United recovered from a deficit to win 3-2 at Arsenal, securing three crucial points and staying in contention for Premier League European places. The team showed composure and improved connections through the pitch, creating confidence before conceding and then responding with character and defensive resilience. Away supporters generated energy that aided patient, disciplined phases and forward play that produced rewards. The result provides a promising start after a short preparation period, while acknowledging the need for tactical refinement and additional layers to build greater consistency.
