Champions League: Paul Merson reveals how Man United can avert defeat by PSG

  Former Arsenal star, Paul Merson has stated that Manchester United need to sign new defenders if they are to avoid an embarrassing defeat to PSG in the Champions League. Despite three clean sheets in their last four games, Merson is still far from impressed and has named Thiago Silva, Toby Alderweireld and Kalidou Koulibaly as potential new recruits for the Red Devils. “Defensively they are not good enough,” Merson told Sky Sports. “I dread to think what the score will be against PSG in the Champions League next month. “They need defenders.

EPL: Sarri reveals those to blame for Chelsea’s 2-0 defeat to Arsenal Chelsea manager, Maurizio Sarri, has accepted that he and his players, are to blame for Saturday’s 2-0 defeat to Arsenal in the Premier League. Alexandre Lacazette and Laurent Koscielny scored the goals in the first half, as the Gunners claimed all three points at the Emirates. The Blues finished the game with only one shot on target and hardly troubled Unai Emery’s team, despite having superior possession. “From a technical point of view both teams were on the same sort of level, but they had a higher level of determination in both penalty areas, so tactics don’t come into it. “I can’t possibly say I am not partly responsible for the defeat. We have to share it. “This is not a team that is going to be well known for its battling qualities, but we need to become a team that is capable of adapting, possibly suffering for 10 or 15 minutes, and then playing our own football. Today we didn’t play our ow
