In that time he has shown 33 yellow cards and one red card. The 45-year-old also famously mistook Kieran Gibbs for Alex OxladeChamberlain during Arsenal's 6-0 defeat to Mourinho's Chelsea in 2014, a mistake for which he was dropped from the Premier League's referee list. United and Arsenal's clash this weekend is arguably one of the biggest games of the season thus far, with Mourinho's side desperate to move up the table - they currently languish in sixth - while the Gunners will hope to maintain their pressure on leaders Liverpool.Arsenal drew 1-1 with Tottenham in a spiky north London derby last time out, while United defeated Swansea City 3-1 in Wales.</blockquote>
