Man United are unlucky, Mourinho cries out
Juan Mata put United ahead at Old Trafford on Saturday in the 68th minute, but Olivier Giroud headed home with one minute of normal time left to ensure the spoils were shared.
It is a third successive league
draw at home for Mourinho’s side, with the Premier League title challengers now languishing in sixth.
And the Portuguese manager is growing frustrated by United’s recent misfortunes, telling Sky Sports: “We are the unluckiest team in the Premier League.
“In the last three matches at home, against Stoke we have to win 5 or 6-0 and we draw, against Burnley we have to win 5 or 6-0 and we draw and today we have to win 2 or 3-0 and we draw too, so I think we are the unluckiest team.
Mourinho felt his team were worthy of all three points at Old Trafford, hailing the way they stifled Arsenal with a strong showing in defence.
“We were the best team by far. I don’t want to say they didn’t want to win, but they had no chances to win,” he continued.
“They couldn’t be Arsenal the way they normally play football. We were phenomenal defensively – the way we pressed, we were very strong without the ball, controlled their counter-attacks, their best players.”
