David De Gea was the unabashed hero on Saturday as Manchester United held on to secure a 3-1 win over Arsenal at Emirates.
A fixture and a place where Manchester United had struggled to get results in the last couple of years – Alas! it all went according to Jose Mourinho’s plans on Saturday as Arsenal fell into the trench of goals on the back of chances created from their own plays.
As Manchester United punished Arsenal’s mistakes on one end, David De Gea made sure the same was not the case on the other one as he equalled a record total of 14 games in a single Premier League. As usual, the Spaniard’s name was on everyone’s lips and social media accounts.

Didn’t think I could love De Gea anymore but after that performance y’day and his supposed comments to his agent about having everything he wants at Utd, I was wrong ?

I think it’s now safe to say that De Gea has overtaken Neuer as the best Keeper in the world by a long stretch.

If De Gea wasn’t allowed to use his hands Arsenal would’ve won.

Shot to the goal, he makes the save – DAVID DE GEA IS HIS NAME!

Anyone calling De Gea overrated or saying he makes easy saves to look hard seriously need to fix up, I love Courtois but De Gea is something else, and in my opinion better than Neuer due to the defence he has infront of him too as they rubbish.

Schmeichel has always been my favourite ever United keeper but De Gea is taking goal keeping to a whole new level and Peter just seems like a distant memory at the moment.
