4 Manchester United players who proved why INEOS should let them leave after loss to Arsenal

Manchester United gave the home fans nothing to cheer for with a lethargic display at Old Trafford. Although the scoreline flatters United at 1-0, Arsenal thoroughly dominated their historic rivals and showed why there is such a vast gap in the table between the two of them.

The Red Devils' Champions League hopes are all but shot, but there is still plenty to play for before the season ends, including pride and the futures of several individuals.

Casemiro was a huge help to Man United in the 2022/23 season, lifting a newly-minted Erik ten Hag to a Champions League place wi...
