Credit where it’s due but that was vintage DDG. Immense saves to keep us in the game

 

[sullydnl]

Two massive saves, could easily have been a very different game without them.

 

[Pronewbie]

Big Dave today. Well done and hopefully a harbinger of things to come.

 

[Andersonson]

Excellent. Sign that contract already

 

[RuudtheRed]

He was David de God of old today. If not for him, game might have panned out rather differently.

 

[Sylar]

Shout for motm as his saves are game changing.

 

[Longshanks]

Two good saves, couple of punches that should of been catches and distinctly average distribution.

Credit where credits due the two saves in the first half were massive for us today and he should take plaudits for it.

 

[arnie_ni]

2 world class saves. Should have been 2 down

 

[Golden Nugget]

The two saves were amazing and kept us in the game. Didn’t have much to do second half.

 

[CloneMC16]

Unreal saves. Saved us to today. Fair play.

 

[JeffFromHK]

his 2 world class saves outweighted his poor distributions/reluctance of coming out in crosses tonight

 

[calodo2003]

Quality performance to take the record.

"You just need average level shot stopping, other areas are more important in the modern days"

"DDG old fashioned keeper"

Right. Average shot stopping today would've conceded both goals today and we would have lost that one.

 

[BorisManUtd]

Equals Schmeichel's record with that. Hopefully he can break it as early as next week vs Barca/Newcastle.

 

[Alemar]

Excellent performance

 

[Shane88]

Stopped today from being a disaster.

 

[IhabX7]

One of the best United keepers of all time, enough said.

 

[Jev]

The Caf managed to overwin their bias quite quickly when it came to Shaw and Rashford. Wonder how many worldies de Gea will have to pull off before the same thing happens with him. He's having a great season.

 

[arthurka]

Very good performance from him.

 

[Borys]

Very good today.

 

[git_united]

Well done! He wasn’t getting beaten today.

 

[#07]

Some of the saves from DeGea in that first half, it was like watching him from five seasons ago. Quality.

 

[Who's Kissing Cameras?]

I’m his biggest critic but fair play. Excellent saves today. The Kelechi save was wonderful. Good distribution. One good punch. Maybe could’ve come and claimed one Souttar header in the first half. Our best player today alongside Bruno and Rashford.

 

[mu4c_20le]

The difference between 0-3 and 3-0

 

[berbatrick]

pissxg

 

[Robbie Boy]

He was great today.

 

[Lay]

That second save was so good to watch.

 

[Adisa]

He wins us points.

 

[Kostov]

Two good saves, couple of punches that should of been catches and distinctly average distribution.

Yeah what a terrible old fashioned not progressive enough GK performance.

His best game this season.

Right. Average shot stopping today would've conceded both goals today and we would have lost that one.

Whilst I agree with you, going the other way average shot stopping and claiming the ball has us possibly getting points in other games?

 

[dalriada]

One of the two best keepers in the EPL. Immense today and I'm bewildered by people who think we should replace him because he isn't a "sweeper keeper".

 

[quadrant]

Blast from the past today, was like watching the old De Gea again. That one clawed out off the line was great to watch.

 

[vodrake]

Some fans seem to have invented this fantasy goalkeeper we could replace him with, who will play "modern" football whilst also making all the saves De Gea does, and all the ones he doesn't make as well and making no errors in the process. This goalkeeper doesn't exist, and I think we'll find that out when we have to replace him.

 

[Desert Eagle]

Two absolutely vital saves today and overall played quite well, dealt with some crosses and even kicked decently.

 

[Longshanks]

Yeah what a terrible old fashioned not progressive enough GK performance.

It wasn't very progressive he put us under pressure with his hit and hope distribution at times today.

2 good saves but they were poor finishes better players put them away comfortably. And we would be looking at why we come under so much pressure and couldn't build or sustain attacks and some of that was because De Gea's distribution was pretty poor.

But today Dave made the saves, deserves the credit and we move on.

 

[Raoul]

MoTM and fully responsible for us getting 3 points instead of 1 or 0 today. Had any of their early chances gone in, it would've demoralized us and could've easily resulted in us not getting one or two of Rashford's goals.

I don't think anybody realistically expects that. I want a better all around keeper. He won't make every save that De Gea makes, but he will be better during the build up, deal with crosses, and play more proactively in 1v1's.

City have won the last 4/5 PL's with a pretty bad shot stopper. You don't need an amazing shot stopper to win trophies.

Superb today
