Manchester United legend Patrice Evra didn’t hold back when criticising Arsenal after their defeat against Sheffield United.
Evra was part of the pundit team on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football show and labelled Arsenal as “babies” after their shock defeat at Bramall Lane.
He also questioned the mentality of the players and admitted that they “look pretty and good”, but lack the hunger of winners. These Arsenal fans couldn’t help but agree…
Twitter: @afcstuff I hate Patrice Evra. And He’s right. That makes me hate him more. (@qtn68)
Twitter: @afcstuff That’s very flattering, because we certainly didn’t look “good” or “pretty” tonight

Twitter: @afcstuff He’s so Wright… Why won’t he say that. You have players that could execute your game any time any day.… https://t.co/oDI7vaYIfu (@krissolite)

READ ARSENAL VERDICT
It’s a bitter pill to swallow for Arsenal, but Evra’s comments are true. There’s a clear lack of a winning mentality in this current Arsenal side and that was evident during Monday’s defeat.
On paper, Arsenal look like a very good side, with strength in all areas of the pitch, however, when things start to go against them, they always seem to crumble and lose their style of play.
Unai Emery has plenty of work to do to turn this team around and it hurts even more for Arsenal fans because they missed their chance to go back into third in the league table.
