Arsenal v Manchester United - Premier League
David de Gea was at his imperious best! Was there anything last night that David de Gea couldn't save?

There was that solitary goal by Arsenal, which the Spaniard could do nothing about. But apart from that, whatever the Gunners threw at him, De Gea was up for it.

The 27-year-old made 14 saves during the game - the joint-most by any goalkeeper in the Premier League era - and it was enough to earn him the Man of the Match award and his team the three points.

That double save to deny Alexandre Lacazette and Alexis Sanchez, that dive to his right to deny the Frenchman with a firm right hand were just some of the highlights of De Gea's performance, who had an impeccable game.

When Manchester United fans chant "Jesus loves but David saves", they couldn't have been more correct, for they have, arguably, the best shot-stopper in the world.
