`The time of Sir Alex Ferguson is long gone,` Merson commented on Sky Sports on September 5, after witnessing Man Utd lose 1-3 on Arsenal’s field in round 4 of the Premier League.
The 55-year-old former midfielder also criticized Man Utd’s counter-attacking style of play.
Goalkeeper Onana watched the ball fly into the net after Declan Rice’s shot when Man Utd lost 1-3 to Arsenal in the Premier League last weekend.
Man Utd holds the record of winning the Premier League 13 times.
This season, Man Utd has only won six points through four Premier League matches.
An unconvincing start to the season has caused concern for Man Utd fans about team building.
Merson (center) is currently a famous British expert.
According to Merson, the rare bright spot in Man Utd’s defeat against Arsenal was Rasmus Hojlund, who entered the field in the second half of the second half.
Also according to Merson, Man Utd is forgetting that it is one of the biggest teams in the world.
While Man Utd struggled at the start, all opponents played well.
