Arsenal's Premier League lead shrank to four points after a 3-2 home defeat to Manchester United. A stunning Matheus Cunha winner sealed the loss, capping a three-game winless run for the Gunners. Former captain Patrick Vieira publicly questioned the team's mental strength following the collapse at the Emirates.

Vieira, speaking on Sky Sports, suggested Arsenal lacked leaders and played with too much fear. Manager Mikel Arteta accepted the criticism, stating his team must prove their resilience on match day. The defeat follows draws with Liverpool and Nottingham Forest, eroding their previous seven-point advantage.

Roy Keane and Gary Neville echoed concerns, noting Arsenal appear anxious and fragile under pressure. Neville added that Manchester City, now just four points back, will be emboldened by the result. The title race has tightened significantly, with Arsenal's composure now under intense scrutiny.
