Rob Holding: 'We could have beaten Manchester United by three or four goals'

Arsenal defender Rob Holding has claimed that the Gunners could have beaten Manchester United "3-0 or 4-0" on Sunday afternoon.

The Gunners put in an impressive display at Old Trafford and ultimately secured all three points courtesy of a second-half penalty from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

The capital side had a number of opportunities to score in the first half, though, and Holding has claimed that it should have been a more comfortable victory for Mikel Arteta's side.

"Yeah, happy with the performance and the clean sheet. We've not won here in 14 years in the league so it's nice to get that off our backs," the Evening Standard quotes Holding as saying.

"The team's just improving and hopefully we can just keep this momentum. We hit the crossbar in the first half and B's had that header he could've put in. On another day we maybe win that 3-0 or 4-0. Just happy to get the win and the clean sheet."

Arsenal are next in Premier League action at home to Aston Villa on November 8.
