Watch the Legendary Moments video: Man Utd vs Arsenal
While the blue half of Manchester looked set to dominate the footballing agenda with a stunning 5-1 win at Spurs, United went goal crazy against a depleted Arsenal side to steal the headlines and hammer home a warning to Roberto Mancini’s team and the rest of the Barclays Premier League.
In a game that had everything – a missed penalty, a converted spot-kick, a hat-trick for Wayne Rooney, a red card and 10 goals – United simply romped home 8-2.
Danny Welbeck, Ashley Young (2), Nani and sub Ji-sung Park also hit the net with David De Gea superbly saving a penalty when the lead was a slender one. Theo Walcott and Robin van Persie replied for the crestfallen Gunners, who had Carl Jenkinson sent off in the second half.
