Erik ten Hag was left bemoaning several decisions he felt went against his Manchester United side as they sank to a dramatic late defeat at Arsenal.<\/p>\n

Stoppage-time strikes from Declan Rice and Gabriel Jesus secured a 3-1 win for the hosts, who had equalised through Martin Odegaard just 110 seconds after Marcus Rashford had opened the scoring for United.<\/p>\n

The late double would have been even more galling for the away side as substitute Alejandro Garnacho thought he had won it with his own strike, only to see it ruled out by a close offside VAR call.<\/p>\n

That was just one of the close decisions ten Hag believes fell in Arsenal\u2019s favour as the Red Devils slipped to a second defeat of the season in north London.<\/p>\n

The Dutchman also felt Kai Havertz should have been booked for diving after seeing a penalty award overturned by VAR and that Rice\u2019s goal came about only because Jonny Evans had been fouled \u2013 while he called for debutant Rasmus Hojlund to have been given a spot-kick of his own.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe performance was right but the result was not on our side and definitely many decisions were against us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s start at the penalty given but rejected. Everyone can see it\u2019s a simulation but he did not get booked for it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen the foul on Hojlund in the penalty area and I don\u2019t think it was even noticed by the VAR. Then the disallowed goal from Garnacho.<\/p>\n

The performance was right but the result was not on our side and definitely many decisions were against us<\/p>\n

\u201cI think they looked from the wrong angle and it\u2019s onside. Then the final goal. How can they allow that? It\u2019s a clear and obvious foul on Jonny Evans otherwise he would have blocked the shot from Declan Rice. So it\u2019s a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the defeat ten Hag felt his team \u2013 without a number of injured first-team players and having also lost centre-back pairing Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof to injury and illness, respectively, during the game \u2013 put in a strong showing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also have a good feeling because our performance was very good,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cI won\u2019t say it was perfect because there is definitely room for improvement. But if we see our compactness, pressing, moving with the ball and making the counters, very calm, we never gave Arsenal an opportunity to press us.<\/p>\n

There were a lot of positives in this game but there is still a lot to do<\/p>\n

\u201cThe next stage is we could have done that better and the movement we could have done in the right moments. There were a lot of positives in this game but there is still a lot to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Arsenal have now won three of their opening four games as Rice once again shone following his \u00a3105million summer move from West Ham.<\/p>\n

He topped off a fine display with the important second goal as manager Mikel Arteta hailed the influence of the England midfielder.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think, a tremendous performance,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you look at how a holding midfielder needs to dominate his area, how he needs to break up play, how he glided the team together when they were stretched a bit.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen he produced a magic moment to win us the game, so, (I\u2019m) really happy with him.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a great kid. I think he\u2019s got a good mixture between being extremely demanding with everybody and himself, having a bit of banter and being around the staff and the boys in a really humble way. So I think he\u2019s fitting in brilliantly.\u201d<\/p>\n
