Matteo Darmian could have been forgiven for thinking "oh, not again" as Manchester United were torn apart in the first 20 minutes by Arsenal, who eventually won 3-0 at the Emirates Stadium. It had been a while, but the full-back won't have forgotten the last time he came face-to-face with Alexis Sanchez.
Back in February 2011 Sanchez was the Udinese star and coveted by every major club in Europe, including both Manchester teams. Darmian was a 21-year-old right-back on loan at Palermo from AC Milan.
The defender had made just one previous start in Serie A for Palermo but was injured after 33 minutes.
