Watford defender Miguel Britos says that Zlatan Ibrahimovic "angers easily" following the Hornets' 3-1 win over Manchester United at the weekend.

Watford defender Miguel Britos has claimed that it is "easy" to get Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic angry.

Britos came up against the Swedish forward at the weekend as the Hornets earned a 3-1 victory, which in turn inflicted a third consecutive defeat on United.

Ibrahimovic, who joined the Red Devils on a free transfer in the summer, scored five goals in the first five games of the season, but failed to strike against Feyenoord in the Europa League and at Watford.

"This is not the first time I have played against him," Britos told Sport 890. "I faced him when he played in Milan. We were able to control him as well as [Wayne] Rooney [on Sunday].

"[Ibrahimovic] is a bit arrogant and he angers easily. He does not like to be touched. Beyond that, he is a phenomenon. He is a complete player and he is also very big and hard to defend."

The loss at Vicarage Road marked the first time since 2002 that Jose Mourinho has lost three games in a row as manager.
