BT Sport pundit Keown was highly critical of Arsenal's defensive performance as they were fortunate to finish the north London derby conceding just only once as they lost the north London derby to Tottenham at Wembley. "Manchester United decided that once they were in the semi-final to focus on Europa League (last season). For me, it's a very disappointing result because the priority has to be to get into the Champions League from the Premier League. "I'm not a great fan of qualifying through the Europa League because I don't think it's right. The priority is still to be in the Premier League."
