Former Chelsea star, Craig Burley, has praised Manchester United duo Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo following their 1-0 defeat to Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday.
Burley noted that both players were a constant threat to the Gunners, despite United failing to score at Old Trafford.
“What they [Man United] have shown against Arsenal is that they are definitely better with that front line,” Burley told ESPN FC.
“Cunha and Mbeumo were a threat, and there were a couple of times in the first half when Calafiori left space behind after moving into midfield, but there was no striker in the box to finish it.”
Recall that Riccardo Calafiori’s first-half goal sealed the win for Arsenal. United had signed Cunha from Wolves and Mbeumo from Brentford during the summer transfer window.
