MANCHESTER UNITED fans joked Arsenal should steer clear of Matheus Cunha this weekend after he was filmed flattening an opponent during a Jiu-Jitsu class.
The Brazilian posted pictures of him dominating a rival in the martial arts discipline this week.
Cunha showed off his skills by throwing his opponent over his shoulder before pinning him to the mat.
He wrote in a caption: Those who are not graduates, please show respect.”
Fans flocked to the comments after his post as they joked that Arsenal should fear their No 10 when United play them on Sunday.
One simply wrote: “Pray for Arsenal.”
Another added: “Oh Arsenal, be ready.”
A third said: “We need you to [do this to] Saliba on Sunday.”
And another commented: “Arsenal should forfeit that game. I pity Saliba and Gabriel.”
One joked he was “preparing for those Arsenal corners” and “waiting for a brawl at the weekend.”

Cunha joined United in a £62.5million deal from Wolves last summer but has had a mixed start to life at Old Trafford.
He has four goals and two assists from 16 starts in the Premier League, with one of those assists coming in the 2-0 win over Manchester City this weekend.
Cunha came off the bench for that game but is hoping to impress new boss Michael Carrick after he took over from Ruben Amorim.
The Brazil international backed the new caretaker boss to succeed and said his familiarity with United would help the players.
He told Globoesporte: “We’re still getting to know [Michael] Carrick.
“He’s a highly respected name, not only at United, but in the Premier League as well.
“He’s [Carrick] written his history here in the most positive way possible and brings with him a winning mentality worthy of the club. He knows the path to victory.”
Speaking about his performance against City, he added: “I think, considering the whole context, it was the most important victory since I arrived at United.
“I’m happy to have helped with an assist, but even happier with the three points. May this be the beginning of a new cycle for our team.”
