David de Gea was embarking on his first season in English football when United battered Arsenal 8-2.

The game was just his fourth between the sticks for the Red Devils, and he saved a penalty from then-Gunners forward Robin van Persie with United 1-0 up. The whole match could have changed if he hadn’t have made that save.

Nonetheless, de Gea has developed into one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League, and since this game has won three Player of the Season awards at United.
