If DDG leaves Henderson should come in and share the role with Romero. No loan, Romero is not good enough to be a regular starter.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Seems like he loves it there. Probably a wise move for him - buy back clause?
I doubt he’s going nowhere as long as DDG dithers with his contract.
Maybe, I don't think he'll be happy not being a no. 1 now though.
Those who have watched him regularly, is he good enough to replace DDG? I don't mean being at DDG levels yet but having potential to reach there and simultaneously being good enough to be our no. 1.
If the answer is yes, not bad idea to cash-in on DDG. De Gea will ask for an enormous contract and as we have seen, big contracts set precedence with rest of the squad during renewals.

Will score on his debut.
How is his distribution?
Saw him play for England u21 vs Germany u21 recently and he was hitting long passes to teammates consistently. Definitely better than DDG in that regard.
Good to hear, will be interesting to see what we do with him at the end of the season. We should be looking to sell Grant and keep Hendo in the squad.
Backup should always be seasoned pros. Young keepers need to play and they won’t get enough football as a number 2, never mind number 3.
That's only going off one game. He doesn't want to be a number 2 or 3 under any circumstances though.
Not sure if we keep De Gea for another season or sell him, but in case he stays for another year, i would loan him out to a PL team with a perspective as a starting GK (maybe Sheffield if they make it). Then if he continues with these performances, take him here after De Gea and give him a chance to establish himself. I dont see the point in bringing in someone that is only good. For me it is either give him a chance or go for Oblak. I would also like to see a new GK coach at the club.
Hope he comes good. Could save 100m on Oblak... I don't trust Romero and unless this De Gea contract is sorted soon, we are going to have to watch him being crap all next season.
Was thinking about that today... DDG's decision making seems to be really bad once he has control of the ball, and that's very coachable. So either the coach isn't doing his job, or can't, or DDG can't learn. Something has to give.
If De Gea continues here after this summer, send the kid to a PL club on loan maybe even a 2 year loan like Chelsea did with Athletico. The kid is very talented obviously and we have to plan his development properly.
Let’s throw him in
Important clean sheet, after some big injuries to Shef United. Really making that push for second place right against Leeds.
Kept another clean sheet tonight, Sheffield United now 2nd after Leeds lost.
The below is from midweek.

What
Rival fan photoshopped some snapchat shit of a pic of him topless in bed saying he sent it to a 14 year old. He'll now be called a nonce and pedo for the rest of his career.

No proof or anything of the sort
Ah shit. I’ve deleted my post
How many clean sheets does he have? The guy just doesnt let goals in.
They are almost certainly promoted now.. Finishing ahead of Leeds is a lovely bonus

He's tied exactly with Darren Randolph of Middlesbrough with 42 apps, 39 (lowest in the league) goals conceded and 18 clean sheets.
Yep, Leeds looked a certain for the title but now look favourites for Playoffs because Sheffield have been so solid.
Butland 3rd playing for Stoke.. and they are a pretty defensive side.
From what I remember from 2 seasons ago, Middlesbrough were a very defensive side.
Looking at the table, Sheffield United have scored 74 goals compared to 45 from Boro and 43 from Stoke. Probably makes it a little more impressive.
Hope he gets another good loan spell in the premier league next season with Sheffield United.
Yeah, Middlesbrough are managed by Pulis too.
If he can prove himself in premier League, he should be given his chance.
Yeah, I want to see him in the prem so hopefully Sheffield United get promoted as with this loan we know he’d definitely play every week.

Sheff Utd 3 points clear of Leeds who are 3rd. 3 points behind leaders Norwich who are top but have better goal difference. Chances of them getting promoted are pretty high and also an outside shot of winning the league. Reckon he'll go back on loan if they get promoted.
Anyone know his style of goalkeeping? Is he the type that stays stuck to his goal, or is he the commanding proactive type?
Great prospect though, definitely wouldn't be open to selling him. He could make it here.
Edit: He's a lovely guy, my bad x

Whatever happens next season, I’d like to see him return and play for us in pre-season if possible. He can then go back to Sheffield United if needed.
I went on his twitter to check this out and almost all of the first tweets I encountered were him being a nice guy - against racism, pictures with kids, retweeting someone needing a blood transplant, etc...He comes across as a bit of a knob on social media, reminds me of a similar character to the other 2 golden boys Joe Hart and Pickford...Sufferers of Twatitis.

Just checked again myself because I remember coming across him on Twitter a few months ago and I think what soured me on him was that false 14 year old shit which I though was true at the time. My bad, his timeline aint particularly twattish in hindsight, bit of an emoji merchant and retweeting stuff about him being De Gea's heir but sure they're all going on like that nowadays.
I take it back
This is a question I was wanting to know too. @jb8521 might have the answer?
Yeah he comes off his line quite a bit. I haven't seen much of him lately but in his academy days he wasn't great on crosses due to being fairly small & slight but he was always quick off his line & always sweeping & was one of the better kicking keepers we've had in a long time
I remember at the beginning of this year I went to Leeds forum to check and they said similar thing. They think his reflexes and saves are on par with EPL goalkeeper but he has weakness of dealing the crosses and corners. Confident with the ball which allows them to play from the back.
Not enough information how good he is with the ball just confident.
I think he needs another one or two seasons on loan before we can consider to use him in our XI choice so hopefully de gea is willing to stay for another 2 seasons at least.
