Former Liverpool and Tottenham star questions Arsenal defence going into Man Utd clash

Arsene Wenger has seen his Arsenal side concede five goals in two games

DANNY MURPHY has slammed Arsenal's naivety in defence.

 

The Gunners have shipped in five goals in the last two outings, beating Leicester 5-2 on Saturday and losing to Olympiakos 3-2 in midweek.

The defeat to the Greek side leaves Arsene Wenger's side bottom of Group F and without a win in the Champions League.

 

And former Liverpool and Tottenham midfielder Murphy has pointed the finger at Arsenal's 'naive' defence, insisting the attackers are doing their jobs.

The north London outfit go up against Premier League leaders Manchester United, who have scored 11 goals during their four-game winning streak.

 

Olympiakos shocked Arsenal at the Emirates in a 3-2 win

“I’ve watched Arsenal in their last two games and I must say, defensively, they have been absolutely all over the place,” he told talkSPORT.

“Naive, gung-ho, thoughtless - it’s really not that difficult to play a bit more defence minded. With the players they’ve got going forward they will create chances.”
