The point being the difference between the best in the prem and de Gea isn’t as great as people would like it to be and there doesn’t seem to be an example of a stand out choice who’s demonstrably better at everything than de Gea and is gettable. So complaining about him *all the £#%&!ing time* is not only a bit misplaced, but is also eye wateringly futile. |

The point is post Leighton, after Les steadied things, it was as if Fergie pulled the Great Dane out of his arse, no one had heard of him. Why do we need to have a ready made replacement lined up on here? Having an Edwin wasting at a selling club happens very few times Erik will have got this. |

I’d put money on that’s what will happen. He’ll still be United’s number 1 for 3 more years is my guess. So do keep that anti de Gea water torture coming. And I think the reason he’ll get a 3 year deal is because he’s not materially worse than the best in the prem and there isn’t an obvious materially better obtainable alternative elsewhere. Don’t get the Leighton comparison. Leighton was a reasonably regarded keeper in the Scottish league which was shit then as it is now. Sealy was a weggers style stand in who was bobbins but just didn’t shrink. Both were shit tbh. |

3 years my arse. Hope they don’t fax it to him if the case. Like I said, couple of worldies yesterday along with shitting himself glued to his line again for that first half ball across the six yard line. For every worldly we seem to get 10 mins of head tennis around the six yard box while he cowers in the background too. That’s the £#%&!ing water torture. 3 years more of that distribution? If he gets 3 years more there’s got to be a Dave quilt or two in Qatar. |

Of course he can be frustrating as £#%&! but imo he messes up much less than most other keepers in the league, and saves more than them as well. |

13th in save percentage, 9th most saves, joint 3rd most mistakes leading to goals (1 ) of all keepers in the league. |

Can’t imagine Erik’s going to put up with such a shit keeper tbh. |

De Gea is having a very poor season statistically, it’s not even up for debate.
There’s some great stats and tables on here. Fail to see where De Gea looks like a top keeper on any metric other than clean sheets His goals prevented, £#%&! me https://www.skysports.com/football/n...ng-goalkeepers |
