Highlights: Watch Willian hit the bar
Here’s Arsenal’s best chance in the game so far …
Simon Collings at Old Trafford
Arsenal will be disappointed not to lead at halftime. They had some good chances at the end there, including Saka’s header. Surely Manchester United will get going in the second half?
Half time | United 0-0 Arsenal
So the Gunners largely dominated that half in terms of momentum, but the scoreboard is yet to be affected.
Solskjaer will be relieved to step into the locker room and rethink, as Arsenal have prevented United from playing their own game so far.
43 minutes: Chance for Saka!
Another good cross from Bellerin finds Saka completely unmarked, but he’s heading over the bar from 10 yards.
It was a difficult header, but it is still a great opportunity.
42 minutes
Rashford is caught offside with a long ball that made Arsenal’s bottom line nervous, but United are too disjointed today, being locked up and then caught offside far too often. There’s a lack of connecting play, and with Fred reserved, we might as well see Matic or Van de Beek after the break.
41 minutes
That was Arsenal’s first real chance, and Arteta will be frustrated that his excellent pressure hasn’t resulted in a goal. That’s the story of his season so far, to be fair.
38 minutes: Get off the bar!
Arsenal win the ball again in the United half: Willian regains possession and receives a tap from Aubameyang, but the Brazilian’s shot from outside the area hits the crossbar with De Gea well beaten.
36 minutes: Chance for Lacazette!
The Arsenal forward fluffed his lines against Leicester, and here he makes a swing and a mistake after Aubameyang attacked him after another good cross from Bellerin. Dear oh dear …
35 minutes
After Chelsea’s visit last weekend, it looks like another tense match is at stake. That Greenwood shot that Leno saved has been the highlight so far, and both sides need a bit more quality going forward.
29 minutes
Right free kick for United: Fernandes turns him on, but Arsenal clears well. They have the best defense in the league so far this season, but they need to add goals to that strong bottom line.
