Man United Legend Singles Out Aaron Wan-Bissaka for Blame After Emirates Defeat

• Arsenal and Manchester United played a five-goal thriller at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday
• Eddie Nketiah was the Gunners' match hero as he scored a brace to help his side secure a win
• Roy Keane contends that Aaron Wan-Bissaka did not do enough to stop Arsenal from scoring

Manchester United legend, Roy Keane has singled out Aaron Wan-Biassaka for blame following the Red Devils' 3-2 painful loss against Arsenal.

United were hoping to get their campaign back on track during their trip to the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, January 22, after their mid-week draw against Crystal Palace.

However, Erik ten Hag's charges were unable to withstand the Gunners' resilience and pressure, conceding in the 90th minute to suffer a defeat away from home.

The two English giants played out a five-goal thriller, with Marcus Rashford netting a screamer of an opener.

Eddie Nketiah went on to restore parity for the hosts, before Bukayo Saka made it 2-1 shortly after the interval.

However, the Gunners were unable to protect the lead, as Lisandro Martinez equalised for United soon after.

Nketiah managed to grab his brace with a few seconds left, as the hosts stormed to a crucial win.

Keane blames Wan-Bissaka

While on punditry, Keane singled out Wan-Bissaka for blame. The former defender slammed the United ace for his role in Nketiah's double.

Wan-Bissaka was at fault for both of Nketiah's goals, giving up possession for the first one after a short goal kick, before failing to defend the back post or even challenge the Arsenal forward.

The Gunner then had a free header to power home past David De Gea for his second goal.

"It’s just his lack of awareness," said Keane. "It’s as if he can’t believe that someone’s coming in the back of him but he can see him," Metro UK quoted Keane saying. "He just dozes off. It’s a lack of football intelligence, a lack of concentration."

Nketiah's goal was valid

Sports Brief has also reported that new images have shown that Nketiah's last-gasp strike to win the game for Arsenal was a valid goal.

His second for the night was marred by an offside controversy. New signing, Leandro Trossard released Oleksandr Zinchenko through on goal, who in turn fed Martin Odegaard in the area.

Odegaard's feeble attempt at goal was then turned in by Nketiah, but the Video Assistant Referee was called in to determine of the Arsenal star was out of position when he scored.
