Yes, you can't do that anymore. Free kick correct call.

If not offside, Mkhitaryan did well to put it in

Four goals from bad defensive errors. A draw probably fair in the end, and not a horrible result.

Fellaini was obvlously sent in to cheat...by cynically fouling our midfield.

I’m not unhappy with that, we’ve made great progress but that was a game that should have been won.

Overall a good result but one where we could have been in command were it not for switching off after scoring.

2 lost points. We lost concentration twice when it mattered. Emery will fix it.

Poor performance from us again at OT. If we concede twice after immediately scoring that needs to be addressed. But Man U are terrible & we failed to win again.

Could easily have snatched it at the end. Great to see us going for the win. Not as sharp as in the derby but 4 points from those two games is a good haul.
Just hoping Holding and Ramsey are not too bad.

Always going to be a tough ask to go there and win after the high energy Tottenham match. Happyish with the point although left with a frustration that we could have taken the full 3 points.

Feel disappointed we didn't win that game was there for the taking. Poor defensive goals for both teams but thought our passing was poor in final third.

Would have taken 4 from 6 last two games though and Chelsea defeat a huge bonus.

I'd have taken a point at the start. Never easy at OT.

Still think if we can sort out the back three and bring in an intelligent winger we could be a serious team.

Not entirely convinced by Leno. When we signed him I read he was a brilliant shopstopper with a tendency to drop the odd howler which is probably a fair assessment. He's clearly an upgrade with his feet on Čech and his reflexes are excellent but he definitely got a mistake in him.

If we could get a top CB and a top wideman in asap we'd move up a level.

I think we missed Xhaka tonight as well.

Also good to get Old Trafford out of the way. Never enjoy watching that one!

Yep. 4 awful goals. We created more than they did but never really put them under sustained pressure. The injury to Ramsey was disruptive. He was our most effective attacking player in the first half. Man U will take points off the rest of the top 5. They are a pig of a team these days.

A win at Old Trafford was always a big ask so soon after Tottenham. That game took a lot of energy. Not disappointed with the result, but very disappointed with the way we conceded. That second goal in particular was horrendous.

They are horrible. Stoke with a bigger budget. At one point Fellaini actually grabbed Guendozi by the hair to stop him from going forward.

Quiz question: When did Arsenal last score twice in the league at OT?

Another thing I find hugely frustrating is Guendouzi's tendency to fall over when under pressure in dangerous areas and try to buy a foul. He's a top top talent but he can't keep doing it because he's not going to get away with it forever.

Yep. Decent point but calamitous defensive errors from both sides.

Pulling hair foul to stop an opponent????

Aren’t there precedents for a red card?

Guendouzi, Torreira, Leno, Aubameyang & Lacazette - in that order.

Our future.

Not sure about Özil, Haz. We look a more high tempo side without him in it.

20 games without a loss now. Very pleasing.

Just thought, has anyone mentioned we went unbeaten in November?

A decent point really as Manchester United were much improved tonight. If that came from a direct consequence of dropping Pogba and Lukaku, then credit to Mourinho. Not a bad display from us, but really frustrating to concede their equalisers so quickly after scoring. Ridiculously quickly after the second.

I didn't think there were any bad displays by Arsenal players, though in my view Guendouzi and Torreira were a cut above the rest. I think we missed Xhaka today, and for our most important games I'd like to see Guendouzi, Torreira and Xhaka in the same team. I hope Özil isn't finished at the club. We needed his creativity today.

Agree with all that, I also thought Aubameyang was excellent second half and is a better all round player than I thought when we signed him.

It takes a very experienced player to buy a foul in those situations

If a gkhas it in one hand, can a player head it out of his hand like Lacazette did? What is the rule against this?

It is against the rules. From the laws of the game:

A goalkeeper is considered to be in control of the ball when:
• the ball is between the hands or between the hand and any surface
(e.g. ground, own body) or by touching it with any part of the hands
or arms except if the ball rebounds from the goalkeeper or the goalkeeper
has made a save
• holding the ball in the outstretched open hand
• bouncing it on the ground or throwing it in the air
A goalkeeper cannot be challenged by an opponent when in control of
the ball with the hands.

And yes, forgot to mention Holding yesterday. Gutted if it's a bad injury, he was having a fine season. Hate when that happens to young players who are playing themselves into the team.
