I'm talking about his first season mostly.
@Rado_N @Varun are you all disagreeing with me that De Gea massively needed support, which United fans provided? I'm not disputing the fact that it was obvious he had talent, otherwise we wouldn't have spent £20m on him. I'm simply saying he had a tough start, and United fans, staff and management backed him over the years to succeed - and he did.
Regarding your point, Varun, about how the way he's handling this situation is more respectful than saying it how it is, I'm afraid I have to disagree. In my opinion, he's not talking to the press in any shape or form because he wants to keep United as an option to fall back on, which isn't very fair on us considering what we've given him.
