I loved the way my team played and fought. But I have to also say that Arsenal played, in some periods, amazing, attacking football, creating difficulties for us. "The plan was when they have to the ball we all have to defend, starting with the attacking players. When we have the ball, however, we had to counter-attack fast to score goals."Of course, they can say they had chances, but we fought and had a great goalkeeper, too." The only disappointment for United was the second-half dismissal of Paul Pogba, with the Frenchman's red card for a stamp on Hector Bellerin ruling him out of next Sunday's crucial derby with Manchester City at Old Trafford . Mourinho refused to be drawn on the incident involving Pogba.  "I don't know. I leave for you [the media] that one," he commented."I'll leave for you the Lukaku situation with Koscielny and I'll leave for you the Arsenal players on the grass but I'll probably [think] the same because the grass is absolutely beautiful. "I think there is a desire to go for the grass!"</blockquote>
