iloveunited: Mike Phelan (Manchester United assistant manager):“Young or old, goalkeepers make mistakes. We have got trust in him. He will be a good Premier League goalkeeper.” Chris Smalling:“He is making some good saves. His agility and kicking are excellent, we have seen that in pre-season. He is going to be a top goalkeeper.” Peter Schmeichel:“This is United and Old Trafford. It’s different. I have watched De Gea play in Spain and every time I saw him I was very impressed. He was impressive in the Under 21 Championship in the summer, too. But, as I say, this is different; even if you played at a club with a lot of pressure, like Atletico Madrid.” Ian Wright:“From what I have seen of De Gea, as long as he can keep going and limit his mistakes - because all goalies make mistakes - he will be fine. I think that he will go on to be one of the great goalkeepers at Manchester United, without a doubt. He has the backing of Ferguson and will have the time and support to get it right. All De Gea has to do is get the experience - and playing for United in a goldfish bowl, he will get that very quickly.” What are your thoughts on David De Gea?

  3. rhythmofmyheartshitsunevenly answered: Btw, it’s de Gea, not De Gea… And well, as a keeper, I guess he makes common mistakes, but he’ll come good. Definitely.
  4. goodrakha answered: young and talented goalkeeper, but still have to learn. its not too late for De Gea to learn from his senior about english-footballt
  5. gitanagilliana answered: Agree with Wrighty and Schmeichel- he needs to adapt, the English game is faster and more direct than European styles. He’ll come good
  6. mark-thefall answered: great player just needs time to settle down
  7. grahitooo answered: David De Gea is Better than Joe Hart, Wojciech Szczesny, and many others
  8. hitchhawk answered: He will be fine. Paul Scholes vs David De Gea at Carrington will solve the problems.
  9. best-ever-irsyad answered: There’s always room for improvement. So need to give him time. Everyone makes mistakes.
  10. anglotopia answered: Give him a chance. It’s unfair 2 judge him only from his 1st 2 games while d season’s just started. He’ll learn n adapt. I have faith in him
  11. whoknowslovee answered: Good goalkeeper.Everything is new to him so he needs to adjust quickly and it’s difficult but he can do it.He’s very talented.
  12. esviai answered: I trust him! Go De Gea Go! You are the future of ManUnited!
  13. filleauxlunettes answered: It’s unfair to compare De Gea and VdS. VdS is our legend but could we just give De Gea time to prove that he’s gonna be the next one?
  14. jack7lares answered: i think if sir alex keeps playing him he will learn so much because he is still young and he will become a great goalkeeper
  15. thesoccerland answered: he should improve, more concentrate and brave. He’s already conceded 3 goals in 2 appearances, that’s not good, he should make a cleansheat
  16. mannybricks answered: He’s good. No need to panic..takes time..He will be just fine
  17. samo-disi answered: I personally don’t think he’s all that. I think with experience, Lindegaard would be better.
  18. shitshockandhorror answered: The boy’s still very young and ppl are expecting him to be as good as van der saar, that’s too much to handle.
  19. miurt answered: Needs time. Not a couple of games but a few months. He will come through.
