Sunday Oliseh hails ‘Champion-like’ Arsenal after triumph over Manchester United

Former Nigeria international Sunday Oliseh, has described Arsenal’s performance as champion-like following a 3-2 victory over Manchester United in the Premier League encounter on Sunday.

Reacting to Arsenal’s victory, the 1994 Africa Cup of Nations winner, took to his Twitter page to praise the team’s transistion and winning mentality.

“Exceptional, sovereign & Champion-like performance by this season’s Arsenal till now. Tactically classy, with & without D ball, coupled with well-orchestrated transitions with runs into pockets that hurt Man. United Today,” the tweet reads.

The Gunners on Sunday defeated the Red Devils 3-2 at the Emirates stadium to extend their leadinb points to five over second-placed Manchester City with a game in hand.

United took the lead shortly after the quarter-hour mark thanks to a moment of magic from the in-form Marcus Rashford. Arsenal responded with Nketiah’s swift header before the halftime break.

Saka curled home a delicious low finish from 20 yards on the 56th minute but United immediately stepped it up and were rewarded as Lisandro Martinez rose high to head home his first goal for the club shortly after.

However, with less than 60 seconds of normal time remaining, Nketiah poked home at the back post to clinch a vital three points.

The 1996 Olympics Gold medalist believes the Gunners look capable of winning the EPL title this season.
