BREAKING ‼️: Arsenal striker Victor Gyökeres finally reveals why he couldn’t score against Manchester United – and names ONE Red Devils star as the best defender he has ever faced.

Football fans across England are buzzing after Arsenal’s new striker, Victor Gyökeres, opened up about the toughest challenge he has faced since arriving in the Premier League. Speaking in a post-match interview, the Swedish forward admitted that one Manchester United defender completely neutralized him when the two sides met, leaving him in shock at the level of quality and discipline shown on the pitch.

“The reason why I couldn’t score against Man United was all because of this defender,” Gyökeres confessed. “He followed me everywhere I went that day. Every time I tried to make a run, he was there. Every time I wanted to receive the ball, he was already anticipating my movement. He really amazed me, because I haven’t seen such a quality defender that can hold me like that before.”

The Arsenal striker then went on to name the man responsible – a Manchester United defender who has now been hailed as the best he has ever faced in his career. According to Gyökeres, this United star deserves all the praise because he showed the perfect balance of strength, tactical awareness, and composure under pressure.

United fans have quickly embraced Gyökeres’ statement, calling it proof of the immense value their defensive warrior brings to the team. For years, the Red Devils have been searching for consistency and leadership at the back, and now it seems they have a player who not only dominates Premier League attackers but is also being openly recognized by opponents as one of the very best.

Arsenal may have been frustrated by their inability to break down United’s defense, but for Manchester United supporters, this is yet another sign that the club is finally regaining its defensive stability under Ruben Amorim.

As Gyökeres himself admitted: “He’s indeed a blessing to Manchester United.”
