Played 90 minutes and kept a clean sheet for Spain tonight away to Macedonia. Anyone watch the game and know how he did? Hopefully he looked sharp and it gives him more of a chance to start on Saturday.
Barely even touched the ball. Macedonia had no attack. They might as well have put no one on goal and Macedonia still wouldn't have scored.



David when he was a little boy.
Looks like Torres.

Out of curiosity if Madrid back off from De Gea but he still wants to move to Spain would anyone here consider Claudio Brave from Barcelona? Brilliant keeper.

Or even Oblak from A.Madrid.

I don't think there's the slightest possibility that he'll settle for A. Madrid at this stage of his career. He's one of the best goalkeepers in the world, and despite his quiet nature he didn't get where he is today by not being ambitious. The only clubs he'll leave us for are Real and maybe* Barca.

*Not meant as a slight to Barca, they will obviously dominate football for the coming years, but he seems intent on Madrid, not Barcelona.

I agree 100% but I was just asking would people be happy enough with either keeper to replace him. Just curios, nothing more.

That clip gave me goosebumps :drool: (Didn't hear it earlier in pub from United fans in fine voice)

Had a brilliant game, couple of brilliant saves and a pity to lose a clean sheet but what a goal it was.

8/10 performance, started exactly where he left off.

One nervy moment, couple of good saves and composed the rest of the time, great to have him back in goal.

Edurne, you gloryhunter!
Hmmmm. Bittersweet seeing that tweet. It's obvious she doesn't actually mean it fully, of course she'd want her boyfriend back in Spain with her.
Still, it definitely reflects well if she does it even so - so fair play to her.

Apart from one or two drunk moments, he was great. Good to have him back. Only beaten by a stunner from Benteke.

With him we can challenge for a trophy, this premier league could be a weird one with the strength of the midtable teams, they have bought well and now when behind and they have to attack they will be more dangerous than in previous seasons, De Gea's ability to win a match on his own and our stronger defence could be key.

Felt he went with the wrong hand for the goal but is super-harsh given it was such a wonder strike. Benteke defo not good enough for us though...lol

I was actually thinking that, especially if he tried use both hands instead of his far reaching hand. A lot of power though so we'll let it slide.

Anybody that says he should have saved Bentekes goal seriously has high hopes, the power it came at home and the unnatural curve made it very difficult to judge.

To be fair he got close to it, but I have no quarrels about that. He made some impressive saves throughout the game though which was pleasing to see, majority of his kicking was good apart from that 1 dodgy moment.

I don't think the comments would be so positive if Romero put in that performance.

I loved the save off the mishit, it was a tiny DDG is back moment.

So happy to have him back. We gave him a huge ovation when his name was read out at the beginning (they announcer waited last to announce him haha).

His first touch was cheered, his first catch was cheered, and we chanted his name quite a bit. Big win having him this season.

The fact that he even dived for bentekes goal says a lot about his ability. He was quick to react and attempt a save even though most keepers would have just stood there watching.
