Arsenal has finally ended the tradition of loosing to Manchester United. It has had to suffer fifteen consecutive losses from Manchester United until Sunday May 7. The Arsenal team managed to win comfortably by a margin of two goals whereas Man United failed to score any goal.
However Coach of the loosing side Man United, Jose Mourinho, claims to be happy for the winning club. He said that he had felt really bad in the last fifteen games they had played against Arsenal and had seen the players and the fans cry as they left the stadium after loosing. The Arsenal fans were finally cheering and singing and it is nice for them.
He added: “It is the first time I leave and they are happy. Before they were walking the streets with their heads low.”The Arsenal fans are happy and I am happy for them.”
He also added: “To have that record of winning so many matches is not normal. Normal is win, lose, draw,” “Do you think I enjoy the fact a big club like Arsenal is not winning trophies? I am not enjoying that. It’s a big club.” Wenger is not a small manager. He is a big manager. So it’s not normal and I really don’t care about it.”
However both teams are still way behind the number four spot on the points table. Sunday’s defeat leaves United four points behind rivals Manchester City in fourth place, and five points from Liverpool in third, albeit with a game in hand over the Anfield club.
However, with a spot on offer to the winners of the Europa League, United could finish outside the top four and still qualify for the Champions League.
“We want to try to win the Europa League – it’s more important than finishing fourth. I think it will be almost impossible to qualify through the Premier League,” Mourinho said.
“Trophies make history. Not league positions. We go with everything to get into that final.
“Thursday is the match of the season. I hope Old T afford feels the same, because we need Old Trafford.”
