David de Gea shows true colours after Man United derby win with Bruno Fernandes message
Former Manchester United David De Gea has sent a jibe to Manchester City after his former teammates came from behind to win 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium.
Ruben Amorim's men came away with their first victory on the blue side of Manchester since March 2021. Josko Gvardiol put City ahead in the first-half but two goals in three late minutes gave United all three points.
Bruno Fernandes converted from the penalty spot before Amad continued his fine start to life under Amorim with a well-taken goal in injury time. The win is Amorim's second over Pep Guardiola and Man City in the space of six weeks.

Following the full-time whistle, Marcus Rashford, who was left out of the squad alongside Alejandro Garnacho, congratulated his teammates on Instagram. The forward wrote on Instagram: "Yesssssss! Love it lads *red love heart emoji* *red love heart emoji*."
Rashford's post was followed by De Gea's message with a jibe at City. The Spaniard, who won seven of his 23 Premier League games against Man City, wrote on X, formerly Twitter: "I've seen this movie before." The Fiorentina goalkeeper also took to Instagram to rub salts in the wounds of the City fans.
Posting an image of Fernandes' celebration of him shrugging his shoulders towards the home fans, De Gea posted a shrugging emoji and tagged his former teammate. The tribute to the win isn't expected to be the final one from former United players in the coming days after a dramatic turnaround.
