David de Gea vents fury at Casemiro decision with Arsenal dig - "I don't understand"

A furious David De Gea has questioned why Manchester United were made to play four days before facing Arsenal, while the Gunners had the midweek off.

The Red Devils make the trip to the Emirates on Sunday for a mouth-watering clash which could have huge ramifications on both the Premier League title race and battle for top-four. But De Gea and co will now be without one of their most important players for the match, midfield general Casemiro.

Thanks to him picking up a fifth yellow card of the season in the latter stages of United's frustrating 1-1 draw away with Crystal Palace on Sunday, the 30-year-old Brazilian will serve a one-game suspension. With manager Erik ten Hag now forced to think of a Plan B, team-mate De Gea has vented his fury towards Premier League chiefs' decision to schedule their visit to Palace on the eve of such a crucial fixture.
