Poor old Angel Di Maria hasn’t quite lived up to his £60m price tag for Manchester United this season. In the Red Devils’ 2-1 FA Cup defeat to Arsenal on Monday night, the Argentine winger did provide a fine assist for Wayne Rooney’s goal. However, he also got himself sent off in rather silly fashion. Having just been booked for a blatant dive, the winner then grab ref Michael Oliver’s shirt, a gesture which saw him pick up a second yellow.

Here’s what happened, starting with the dive…

Then the shirt tug…

However, the 27-year-old star has previous, as seen here during his Real Madrid days when he refused to retreat the proper distance for an opposition free-kick. What a big eejit…

    Seriously what the fuck was he thinking in that second video? Is 5 yards really worth sending your team a man down??

    As a United supporter I condemn this 100%.

    I would rather we lose honestly, and with integrity.

    What’s happened to modern football?

    The entire game is falling into a cesspit of cheating & disrespect.
