It’s not just De Gea. I’m not happy with so many other players. Ten Hag also deserves criticism for the recent poor run of form and drop off- yes we’ve lost Varane and Martinez, yes we’ve played the most games of any club in the T5 European Leagues, but this is not good enough.
United so poor in this game. ETH seeing more of the players in these situations is a positive. Allows him to sort out who he wants on the bus. The real disgrace are the Glazers. Are they waiting for the last game at OT to pass??? It would be typical of them. Weak and shirking accountability and responsibility to the end! Members of staff on and off the pitch are in an uncertain position waiting for new owners! Let alone recruitment and what budget their is going to be! This should have been done! Classless to the end!
4 - David de Gea has made four errors leading to a goal in all competitions this season, the joint-most of any Premier League player, along with Hugo Lloris. Howler.
De Gea is not even leaving his area to sweep up the ball around the halfway line when United are pushing for an equalizer, whenever West Ham have cleared it out.
Love De Gea but it's time.
Ten Hag's problem is he doesn't even know who the owners will be and how much he has for the summer to see if he can get the other signings he needs too. No way he doesn't see it though. Surely.
Giving David de Gea a new contract sets a precedent that no matter how poor you are and cost the team points every single week, even if you don’t suit the way the manager wants to play, you’ll still be here & the club will still offer you a new contract even after you reject one.
#MUFC now failed to score in 4 of last 6 games in all comps & not scored in half of last 10 PL matches. Since March int’l break they’ve played 11, won four, drawn two, lost four and beaten Brighton on pens to reach FA Cup final. Wolves on Sat is huge. #LFC breathing down necks
#mufc fans should prepare for 3 outcomes: beaten to Champions League football by Liverpool. Lose FA Cup final to Man City, who could replicate treble achievement and, to top it all off, ongoing uncertainty over sale seeing Glazers retain control of the club.
The wheels have totally fallen off for #MUFC: a total liability of a goalkeeper, strikers who don't score, team fatigue/loss of form through lack of rotation. Another match in which players crumble in adversity. Season totally disintegrating under pressure.
De Gea's mistake should be the least of your worries.
If you're seriously concerned about how he's holding this team back - and actually ready to have a conversation about how limited he is - there are much bigger fish to fry.
Said it a few weeks ago and it’s even more apparent now - what happens with the goalkeeper situation is tenure-defining for Ten Hag. There’d be an argument for moving even peak DDG on for tactical reasons. With *this* version… it should be a complete no-brainer.
It's disgraceful from De Gea.
But United's ability to create good openings early on without taking those chances every single game is just as pathetic.
You need to be cut-throat at this stage of the season.
De Gea conceded 7 goals from 7 shots on target vs Liverpool. At fault for 5 goals in our first 2 PL games. Has a stupid error like this every 4 games. At fault for 3 goals in a 3-0 L to Sevilla. And this is meant to be a good season for him
