For a striker that has over 100 caps and nearly 50 goals for one
of the best international
sides in the world, and a very good strike
rate for Arsenal when he does get
on the
pitch, it must be hard to understand why Arsene Wenger so rarely calls upon his talents in front
of goal, or brings him with no time to influence a game.
United came away from Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan without conceding a goal thanks to De Gea's heroics and French newspaper L'Equipe gave him a
rating of 8, more than any other player
on the
pitch from the two
sides put together.
