Keown slams Arsenal defensive pair for PSV defeat

Arsenal legend Martin Keown has slammed three Gunners stars after their loss to PSV Eindhoven.

The Gunners' former central defender was furious with how they performed in the Europa League group stage game.

Keown does not believe Arsenal gave a good account of themselves, as they lost 2-0 in Holland.

Keown fumed on BT Sport during one of the PSV goals: "Why is (Kieran) Tierney picking up De Jong? I'm shouting at the TV - (Aaron) Ramsdale goes for a big haymaker he should be going with a straight arm.

"I'm not sure why Tierney is going against him (De Jong).

(Rob) Holding should've helped him out."

The ex-defender continued: "I don't want this to derail his team - five people missing and five subs on.

"Strength in depth not quite there but as long as they can learn from that, they'll use this as fuel going into the (Nottingham) Forest game."
