Some of his saves have been ridiculous.
...but I can assure all posters here that it was in no way obscene or profane.******
The closest thing to a howler I can think of would probably be that Newcastle goal at OT this season. He was criticised by a lot of people for that goal, but when Lindegaard did the same thing at Maine Road or whatever last season no-one cared.The Schmeichel vid is howlers, has De Gea committed any howlers whatsoever? & look at the legend Peter became.
He may have made the odd wrong decision, but it's exceedingly harsh to lambaste him for that.
C'mon, find us a bona fides De Gea howler to compare with Schmeichel's.
Come back when you can read what people have written, mate.The... bla bla bla
I've read it all, mate. Your was a contribution that shed no new light and makes De Gea come off as a neophyte who makes mistake after mistake after mistake, all of which he must -- and to your credit, fully believe he will -- learn from. But that's okay. We're all free to have our opinions. No problema, dude.Come back when you can read what people have written, mate.
You're talking fecking shit. When have I said anything like that above? Again, come back when you're able to read; you're a fecking straw man terminator.I've read it all, mate.

How was that even anywhere near being a howler though?The closest thing to a howler I can think of would probably be that Newcastle goal at OT this season. He was criticised by a lot of people for that goal, but when Lindegaard did the same thing at Maine Road or whatever last season no-one cared.
Aye no bother mate.Yeah, wasn't having a go at you. Just the point in general.
I think he hangs around with Hernandez and our South American players (according to some Twitter photos I've seen anyway) and when you add that to Fergie's track record of handling younger players, hopefully he'll be okay in that respect.I hope all the criticism will not make DDG think about leaving England in the futur, he's one player I would love to provok a complete turn around on medias' opinions on him, however difficult it might be.
For his age, to be doing what he has, at a club like Man Utd, it's really impressive and at the same time promising for his development
You're talking fecking shit. When have I said anything like that above? Again, come back when you're able to read; you're a fecking straw man terminator.
...or shall I quote your post directly?Nevertheless, most of us aren't so stubborn as to blindly ignore a time when de Gea has indeed made a genuine mistake, a trait that cannot be associated with you it would seem.
You're coming across as being a bit paranoid.
If he didn't calculate the risk, he would've just jumped wildly tried to catch the ball. I think he was caught in two minds either to stay put or to challenge for the ball. The split second decision made him look a little bit slow for the ball, where the striker was in single minded trying to get the ball.Not convinced by the idea that he pulled out of the challenge because he calculated that the chances of being sent off, or even giving away a free-kick, outweighed the chance of saving it.
I think he just spazzed his attempt to narrow the angle a bit.
As 100 said, it's fine. He's getting a bit too much wrong at the moment but he's learning all the time, and making up for it with some top saves.
Ruud10 I am one of DDGs biggest fans I realised when we bought a 19 year old keeper from Spain it would be a work in progress and I personally am more than happy with the progress I have seen to date. There will be mistakes along the way no doubt it's natural and the press will highlight them as we are United and our standards are so high. But as much as I can't be doing with the press bumming up Hart and washing over his mistakes lets not bury our heads in the sand when DDG makes a mistake. Fergie and Carrick (as a senior pro) was always going to take the blame but DDG could have done better with the situation Carrick put him in. And he doesn't deserve credit for staying on the park cause his part was so weak. That is just daft. He should have made a stronger effort than his silly jump over the ball. That said I hope we stick with him as I believe he will be quality. I had heard Fergie was a big fan of the Stoke GK and has enquired about availability and them signing Butland does strengthen this rumor somewhat.Cider, do you deny having written these words...
...or shall I quote your post directly?
Now that I've caught with your finger up your posterior orifice, let's go over this once again, shall we?
You have failed to make the case that De Gea "made a genuine mistake". You have failed to acknowledge the case that De Gea not only did NOT make a "genuine mistake", you fail to acknowledge that he in fact made the right decision to not risk getting sent off in the second minute, which indeed would have been a colossal mistake. If you're a keeper in a World Cup final you do not -- DO NOT -- risk getting sent off in a 1v1 situation. In that particular situation, De Gea did the only sensible sensible thing he could do. It didn't look pretty, but you can thank Carrick for that.
And by the way, both Carrick AND Fergie assigned blame on the play to Carrick, not to De Gea. But don't let that stop the bitching and moaning by De Gea's critics.
As it turned out, De Gea allowed us to go on with 11 men to get the win, which we did. Three points in the bag, but De Gea's critics keep banging their shit anyway.
And one last point. De Gea has been crapped on all season long for alleged "genuine mistakes". That is not paranoia -- that's a stone cold fact.
Your was a contribution that shed no new light and makes De Gea come off as a neophyte who makes mistake after mistake after mistake.
You're talking fecking shit. When have I said anything like that above? Again, come back when you're able to read; you're a fecking straw man terminator.
I said he's made 'a mistake' , you report that as my accusing him of making 'mistake after mistake after mistake' .Cider, do you deny having written these words...
...or shall I quote your post directly?Nevertheless, most of us aren't so stubborn as to blindly ignore a time when de Gea has indeed made a genuine mistake.
Failed to make a case? Let's see some of the responses to the case I made, shall we?Now that I've caught with your finger up your posterior orifice [As fecking if - cider], let's go over this once again, shall we?

Failed to make a case my fecking arse.Totally agree.Good post.Agreed.Cider at his best! He was too nice to the opposition player yesterday.Yep.Pretty much spot on.Agree with nigh on every point.Just about a perfect post on the subject.
SAF said Carrick made, and has admitted to making, a mistake. I have said a number of times that I agree 100% with that.And by the way, both Carrick AND Fergie assigned blame on the play to Carrick, not to De Gea. But don't let that stop the bitching and moaning by De Gea's critics.
Not by me he hasn't. Go and read the thread, come back when you're considerably less retarded, otherwise shut the feck up and stop talking shit.And one last point. De Gea has been crapped on all season long for alleged "genuine mistakes". That is not paranoia -- that's a stone cold fact.
Fergie has criticized De Gea before, when the facts warranted it.Fergie is never going to paint a young player especially DDG in a negative light; Keane was probably the last player to publicly criticize a teammate here, I wouldn't read too much into what they say
There's been a few saying that.Yet kie said the media didn't treat him any differently and every bit of criticism was justified.
