David De Gea's sublime performance against Arsenal at the weekend has led to the social media declaring that the Manchester United goalkeeper could save anything, anywhere.
De Gea came up with 14 saves in his team's 3-1 win at Arsenal on Saturday, leading to the hashtag #ThingsDavidDeGeaCouldSave becoming a trending topic.
Numerous messages and memes emerged saying the Spain international could have saved the dinosaurs from extinction, Mufasa from his tragic demise in "The Lion King," Ned Stark from execution in "Game of Thrones" and even former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard from his infamous slip against Chelsea.
