Funny how De Gea and Alexis declined started about the same time, we all agree Alexis is done but many here saying “he's on a bad patch”. A 18 month bad patch.
Why you calling our manager “little Ole”?I think that Juve has screwed us again. That's what happens when you pit men (Paratici, Agnelli and Sarri) vs boys (Woodward, little Ole)
We need a system in place from top to bottom. VDS/Marotta as CEO, Campos as DOF, Mitchell as head of recruitment and a new manager.
Because it hasn't been 18 months for De Gea, Alexis started has been underwhelming since the start of the same season in which De Gea has been elected the best keeper in the league and Sanchez is an outfield which generally decline faster than keepers. They're to distinctly different cases, comparing them is pointless.Funny how De Gea and Alexis declined started about the same time, we all agree Alexis is done but many here saying “he's on a bad patch”.

fecking hell, how proud are you of that one?I think that Juve has screwed us again. That's what happens when you pit men (Paratici, Agnelli and Sarri) vs boys (Woodward, little Ole)

Cause he is inexperienced and naive both admin and tactically wiseWhy you calling our manager “little Ole”?
So your fantastically bright idea full of imagination is to label him little? That's the best you came up with? Were you trying to be a dull condescending prick?Cause he is inexperienced and naive both admin and tactically wise
Disagree. He's also been playing in a pretty shit team for years with comical support from his back 4. Expecting miracles from your keeper week in week out is an endeavour with diminishing returns.Hes had 2 bad seasons. Hes not that good anymore
If I thought of it as nothing, I wouldn't have mentioned it.You’re saying it like one bad season is nothing, by the looks of it that’s his level now.
In what universe did he have two bad seasons?Hes had 2 bad seasons. Hes not that good anymore
Simple.Second? Probably more than that.
I have no idea why the club loves to be treated like shit by some of its players.
I thought we passed on Dybala because he was more interested in the money than anything else the club has to offer, then why the feck are we prepared to give our declining want-away keeper superstar wages?
I don’t understand this club I really don’t.
I also call him Molde and his rebuild as the Cardiffisation of Manchester United. I won't go tough on Ole. He is a legend after all. The best 4th choice striker in United's history. Its not his fault that he's incredibly out of depthSo your fantastically bright idea full of imagination is to label him little? That's the best you came up with?

Check the thread “should we renew De Gea’s contract?” There’s a compilation of his last mistakes in the 18 months. He’s heavily declined, this didn’t started last season it started around january 2018.Because it hasn't been 18 months for De Gea, Alexis started has been underwhelming since the start of the same season in which De Gea has been elected the best keeper in the league and Sanchez is an outfield which generally decline faster than keepers.

This. Recency bias, along with the lackluster quality of our outfield has caused him to be a bit overrated.Schmeichel, VDS, DDG for me. Always liked DDG but for me I've never fully warmed to his personality, way too timid for a United keeper in my eyes.
You're defense against being called out a dick is "don't worry I can be an even bigger dick"?I also call him Molde and his rebuild as the Cardiffisation of Manchester United. I won't go tough on Ole.

Using a video as an argument, but not posting the actual video is a dick move.Check the thread “should we renew De Gea’s contract?” There’s a compilation of his last mistakes in the 18 months. He’s heavily declined, this didn’t started last season it started around january 2018.
I think comparing Alexis and De Gea its a really good point, no one in their twisted mind would consider extending Alexis contract nevermind improving his wages. But De Gea has been shit for around the sane time yet we are discussing if we should double his wages?
Makes no sense to me, the main difference is that Alexis was good for Arsenal and shit for us, while De Gea was class for us for many years, but we are talking about present time here and he’s become a liability.
I think it's more about me telling you that I write what I want with no consideration of what you may say. However whatever rocks your boat mateYou're defense against being called out a dick is "don't worry I can be an even bigger dick"?
You can act like dull and unimaginative prick as much as you want mate. I just find it very entertaining how very proud you are of acting like a dull and unimaginative prick.I think it's more about me telling you that I write what I want with no consideration of what you may say.

Please feel free to leave the forum if you don’t agree with others having opinions.Seriously some of the “fans” on here make me fecking sick!
And then to suggest that Dean Henderson, with zero PL experience is a better option is just a joke.
Whatever. You seem to keep repeating the word prick all the time. The plot thickensYou can act like dull and unimaginative prick as much as you want mate. I just find it very entertaining how very proud you are of acting like a dull and unimaginative prick.
Don’t be sillyShould never have let it get to this. How we let our key players get this close to the end is ridiculous. It's not like he was a good player we could maybe replace, he was our best player for years and of all the players, deserved his demands to be met
Nah, it's because you're acting like one,.I thought that was obvious from the context.Whatever. You seem to keep repeating the word prick all the time. Do you like them?
Redcafe is huge so I'd suggest we both stay from each other hair. I'll surely will. Enjoy your use of pricks mate. I'm referring to the word of courseNah, it's because you're acting like one,.I thought that was obvious from the context.
Depends on the circumstances, DDG had a massive offer from us, but still tried to force through the infamous failed Madrid move, he had little option but to sign up after that fell through or he probably wouldn't have played, and it'd have hindered his career, plus there was allegedly a Madrid clause in that new contract as well.Imagine if Ronaldo renewed for a record fee instead of moving to Madrid. Would you have thought the same?
Players who rely on speed declining around 30, given the high usage rates of the modern game, we've seen. Keepers tend to only improve into their early 30s. I can only guess it's mental. The team has struggled as a whole since then.Funny how De Gea and Alexis declined started about the same time, we all agree Alexis is done but many here saying “he's on a bad patch”.

In what universe did he have two bad seasons?
Yes, let’s trust a potential Champions League effort to a man with a grand total of FOUR games! Forget that, Longstaff had a whole THIRTEEN appearances I don’t know why we didn’t jump at the chance to sign him for 50m, should have snapped up that bargain and made him captain!Please feel free to leave the forum if you don’t agree with others having opinions.
Hendo is currently playing in the premier league, so go and get yourself a more informed opinion. 4 games isn’t zero to my knowledge.
Absolutely this, as much of a twat Schmeichel has been since he left United, he's undisputedly the best.Schmeichel>VDS>>>>>>>DDG
VDS in his Juventus days comes to mind. Was a liability but built up his confidence again with Fulham to become WC.Keeping seems to have a big mental aspect to it as well. World class keepers like Iker went to crap really fast too. Joe Hart went from being a really good keeper to a liability. It doesn't take long for a downfall and there's not saying it ever stops/reverses.
There's a debate to be had over whether he is worthy of the huge contract that's been reportedly offered, something I don't think any of us expected when he was dragging us through seasons single-handed and was worth any amount of cash. But yeah talks of terminal decline and even suggestions that he was never all that anyway are below the belt for me.I stand up for Redcafe. But Jesus Christ, the last few pages of this thread are pathetic and embarrassing.
De Gea has been outstanding for United. Our best player for the majority of the last 5 years. He has a bad patch and he’s suddenly past his peak.... yeah..
Different situation, what are DDG’s outstanding attributes apart from shot stopping, What else as a keeper does he do well even?VDS in his Juventus days comes to mind. Was a liability but built up his confidence again with Fulham to become WC.
There is only one job for the goalkeeper in any era of football, and that is to stop the ball going into the net.what are DDG’s outstanding attributes apart from shot stopping
