Tbf I doubt Smith Rowe had a clue De Gea was down. He just hit the shot. Unusual situation for sure

De Gea was pathetic there with his Barthezesque playacting to try to stop play. There is no way that he was too badly injured to get up and scramble across to that shot,

Hard to have sympathy with man United when De Gea isn’t really injured. Suspicion he went down presuming it was an Arsenal foot that tripped him.

De Gea wasn’t injured though was he? Straight back up.
Paul Gerrard was very clearly hurt that day. Not sure what Arsenal have done wrong.

Re: Other Games - 30 Nov + 1 Dec
Take it as De Gea was so injured he's been replaced then, serves them right for staying down expecting to get the game stopped. Well done ref. Poor reaction from Man Utd, odd that they all surround the ref, assume they all got booked for that

Re: Other Games - 30 Nov + 1 Dec
Would have been interesting to see if the same decision would have been made, against one of the league's bottom sides..
Re: Other Games - 30 Nov + 1 Dec
I’m convinced premier league players are, in general, trained to stay down when they feel any pain.

This on the back of them being unsporting not throwing back the ball ahead of their goal against I think Watford the other week.

Oh there's no doubt De Gea was being a cock by feigning injury worse than it was, I'm just making the point that Arsenal didn't know that.
