Arsene Wenger sorry for Manchester United defeat

Arsene Wenger admits that he sympathises with Arsenal fans following the 2-1 defeat to rivals Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsene Wenger has apologised to Arsenal fans after their November slump continued with Saturday's home defeat to Manchester United.

Wenger's side went down 2-1 to their old rivals in a loss that consigned the Gunners to back-to-back defeats and their worst start to a season since 1982.

The defeat followed a 2-1 reverse at Swansea City, which came days after they threw away a three-goal lead in a Champions League clash with Anderlecht, in what has proved a miserable month for Arsenal thus far.

"There was lots of energy," the manager told the club's official website. "We produced a game of quality and energy and in the end we didn't get the reward. Manchester United had two shots on target and we lost the game - that's what it was.

"All the rest was one of the most one-way traffic games I've seen against United. I feel so sorry for our fans and the energy level the players put in not to get a win because it's so disappointing."

The Londoners sit eighth in the Premier League table, 15 points adrift of leaders Chelsea.
