(PLO) – Coach Erik Ten Hag still sends a challenging message to Arsenal following Manchester United suffered a double loss due to an unfortunate draw once morest Crystal Palace in the Premier League.
Early this morning (January 19), Manchester United were held to an unfortunate 1-1 draw by Crystal Palace in the Premier League match away at Selhurst Park. The “Red Devils” opened the scoring first thanks to the work of Bruno Fernandes. However, in the first minute of injury time 90 + 1, Michael Olise hit a beautiful free kick to beat David de Gea to regain 1 point for the home team.

Not only that, with Casemiro’s yellow card in the match, the Brazilian midfielder will be suspended for a very important confrontation with Arsenal away at Emirates this weekend for having received all 5 yellow cards.
The moment Casemiro fouled Zaha received a yellow card in the 80th minute, outside the pitch, coach Ten Hag repeatedly shook his head in disappointment. That shows how important Casemiro is to MU. However, coach Ten Hag still sent a challenge to Arsenal when calling on his students to repeat the victory of the “gunners” 3-1 in the first leg at Old Trafford.
After the final whistle, Ten Hag mentioned Casemiro’s yellow card tackle to prevent a dangerous counter-attack and its impact when he told Sky Sports (England): “I thought it was instinct (Casemiro’s). He went in and missed the ball. Obviously it was a dangerous attack from the opponent. He wanted to stop it and that was his reaction.”

However, Ten Hag claimed MU might still beat Arsenal without Casemiro, adding: “Last time we beat Arsenal without Casemiro, so this time we need to do the same.”
Of course, the Dutchman was referring to United’s 3-1 win over Mikel Arteta’s side at Old Trafford last September. That is the only defeat Arsenal have suffered this whole season in the Premier League so far.
Although Casemiro still played until the end of the game, his suspension seemed to have an impact on MU players. Ten Hag’s team looks significantly more fragile following the yellow card of the Brazilian midfielder. As a result, MU received a painful goal in the last minute of the match following Crystal Palace created constant pressure on De Gea’s goal.

Ten Hag might do nothing but shake his head to express his disappointment. He knows MU’s mission in North London has become more difficult than ever. It was like a blow to the Red Devils, as Ten Hag had to find another way to stop the likes of Martin Odegaard, Thomas Partey and Granit Xhaka without having his mainstay in midfield.
Manchester United might have entered the match once morest Arsenal with a much more relaxed mentality, but the last 10 minutes of the disaster with Casemiro’s yellow card and the opponent’s equalizer made the “red devils” drop the mod. Now, even if the Old Trafford team defeats the Emirates Stadium team, the gap between the two teams is also 5 points, but the “gunners” still play less than 1 match.

On the contrary, if Ten Hag receives defeat once morest Arteta, Manchester United’s hopes of winning the Premier League will officially collapse. But this is completely possible when the “gunner” is in very high and stable form.
