Speaking in his Manchester United vs Arsenal pre-match press conference, Arsene Wenger has played down the absence of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and insists the Red Devils' dangers lie elsehwhere.

The Gunners' visit to Old Trafford last season was an explosive affair which ended 3-2 to the hosts.

Two early goals from Marcus Rashford all but killed off Wenger's men as an injury hit United side ran out triumphant.

And this has clearly served long in the memory for the Frenchman who claims the 19-year-old is United's real threat.

This proved as much when he was asked about the possible impact Ibrahimovic's suspension might have on the game.

"Lets not forget that last year," said Wenger. "The guy who killed us was Rashford."
