I'm starting to trust Romero more than David tbh, at least this season.

It's a weird feeling, I'm almost the same. I think José has done a great job keeping both keepers match fit, and Romero has been a calming backbone in our defense. DDG is the best in the world, and I'd hate to see him leave. If we make it to the final, it's a tough one. De Gea could make a couple of gamesavers that'd help us win the trophy, then again I can't see Romero letting us down either, and it'd be a tad unfair if he was dropped, should we make it to the final.

The problem with David is his last 2 season he was legendary. He was making saves that no other Gk would make, and was nearly keeping us in games we did nothing in it and were depending only on him to save us.

His season he dropped from that legendary GK he was to an ordinary. He doesn't make any miraculous saves anymore. He's saving the shots any GK would save, only, and his mistakes has been increasing in rate than the last one. Now he looks like a very ordinary GK, not much difference from Romero to make me feel worried about Romero starting above him. I think David only appeared in his original legendary form in 2 or 3 games only this season.

Our defense has improved but I was still expecting him to save most of the goals we conceded this season if he was the same as he's last season. He's not bad. Just doesn't look as legendary as he was before.

He's one of the players that let me down and I believe let Jose down as well in his calculations before the season starting. He was planning on depending on Rooney behind Zlatan and Martial on the left, Smalling to perform as last season and De Gea to be as he was last seasons. All now become shots missed its target.

He doesn't (finally) have to make those super saves, as our defending is on a very good level. We've conceded very little, and there's not been many goals that he could've/should've said. I'd like to see Romero given a chance for the no.1 spot if David leaves, but I'd definitely prefer DDG staying.

He doesn't, but when a critical chance or 2 pass our defense I was expecting him to save it, too. I think by the standards he put for himself last seasons, he could have done much better this season overall.

I'm happy to see him staying anytime but I want him to return as he was last season. Would make our defense unbeatable if he does.

You speak the truth. I have a feeling his performance level has dropped, but I can't point to one conceded goal that he definitely should have saved. Perhaps something changed after the last change of GK coach (when was that?)

He doesn't hold direct responsibility for most goals conceded, but he saved much harder goals last 2 seasons than those he conceded this season. He put a high standard for himself with his performance so he should be meeting this standard. One of the best GKs in the world as him, getting 200k a week ( which is the salary of a striker not a GK ! ) should be saving goals no ordinary GK could save ! That's what differentiate the best GKs from the normal ones.

Ah, yes, refreshed the page and it's showing now. What a bitter cnutbag, but it's become the norm for him since last year.

Anyway, thanks man.

My point is, if Mou doesn't win the EL now and thus fails to bring us CL football next season the fans/we should be honest enough that he 'failed' in his first season.

Even he will acknowledge that.

 

[Android1974]

I agree with this post.



But I also agree with this one.

Romero has been great this season, but in a way it is illogical to play him over a better keeper in make-or-break games that will define our season and future.

Unless he commits a grave error, I can't see him being dropped. Might be more risky, but also win the whole squad's trust, instead of a star player which might even be leaving.

In my opinion i think sentinmentality should go out of the window, De gea is far better, he commands the area, when balls go up high he'll ge them, I'm confident he'll stop most shots. Romero seems shaky handling the ball, also something that's doesn't get spoken about is De gea's kicking ability, if we play Fellaini, 100% we should use De Gea, one of the best kicking goalkeepers in the world, if not the best, you can quote me on that one.

Everton at home, clearly.

What? Romero's distribution is quite a bit better than De Gea's. I've always thought he's very average in that area.

Differing opinions for sure and I respect that, but De Gea's distribution is definitely world class, almost every aspect of his game is world class, not to mention his ability in 1v1 situations and reflex saves, Romero is quite a bit slower getting down or using his legs like David does. I would feel confident in net with Romero he's a great keeper, however, use your world class players for the bigger games because you never know if there will be a world class save needed, De Gea can consistently provide that, we've seen it for years now, Romero may crumble, we've also seen that.

No way. He might release the ball faster to set up counter attacks but for example when the ball is played back to him half the time Romero's kicks are low and barely make the halfway line whereas DDG is comfortable on either side and deals with it no matter what sort of situation, his distribution is world class.

It's a bit of a myth that De Gea is a brilliant distributor of the ball; he used to be. His kicking in particular has become quite poor, he often clears his lines down instead of being clever. His long kicking against Arsenal was particularly poor. He's had an average season by his own high standards.

 

[Danillaco]

Just because you went for a drive without your seat belt and didn't die doesn't mean it was a good idea and you should keep doing it.

Romero has been the GK at the EL, and has done quite well. Made some great save and delivered when needed.

God these big European nights are what this club is all about! Praying by hook or by crook we can get back to the big table next season so we can enjoy more nights like this one coming up!

They lost 3-0 on the weekend, sure they're using their B team but losing all these games surely has to take a toll on the morale in the dressing room, right?

A highlights video of Romero in the EL this season would be about a minute long. People want to ignore the opposition have generally been average sides and he hasn't had a lot to do.

Exactly. Doubt Dave would have much to do in these games either. That one great save against Rostov, but people are just looking at what's on paper. The suggestion that Romero and De Gea are similar level is insane.

The problem with David is his last 2 season he was legendary. He was making saves that no other Gk would make, and was nearly keeping us in games we did nothing in it and were depending only on him to save us.

His season he dropped from that legendary GK he was to an ordinary. He doesn't make any miraculous saves anymore. He's saving the shots any GK would save, only, and his mistakes has been increasing in rate than the last one. Now he looks like a very ordinary GK, not much difference from Romero to make me feel worried about Romero starting above him. I think David only appeared in his original legendary form in 2 or 3 games only this season.

Didn't he make an insane save against Chelsea (Cahill was it?) and against Liverpool? That's just a couple off the top of my head.

And I said he appeared with his original performance that he was appearing with before, in 2 or 3 games I think this season, on of them was that Liverpool game at Anfield, but overall I think it hasn't been his best season.

Hasn't been his best but far from ordinary mate, unless we watch a different De Gea.

Agreed 100% on this.
Many of their players are being rested, but losing game after game after game can't be good for morale.

Can't wait for this! Thursday just can't come quick enough.
