Aye. He just made loads of terrible errors for us, definitely crumbled under the weight of the shirt.

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.
I haven’t seen him at all so can’t compare them really, I’m just very wary of depending on a kid in that position.
Henderson really fancies himself. He probably arrogant truth be told. Opposition fans will hate him if he becomes our number one. It would be a gamble to play him this season for sure but if anyone has the big club mentality it has to be him.
Wasn't DDG 21 when he came to United?
The way i see it De Gea will stay another season here and go for free next summer. Henderson will have a year PL football under his belt and hopefully come back and given a chance here to take the number 1 spot. Romero will be around as well.
Yeah but he was coming from being first choice at Atletico. Even then Fergie dropped him a good bit in his first season.
trained at Aon training complex this morning.
What car does he drive? The range on that tank of 1300 miles?
The estimates would have been over a driving period right? Not when its in parking unless he's been parked for ages.

He looks like a proper athlete.
Great physique for a 21 year old.

Looks like an Audi, and it's not fuel, it's AdBlue, and additive that you have to put in diesels these days, he has 1300 miles before his car wont start, someone might wanna tell him...
I fecking love this kid already. If De Gea is to leave give him the number 1 jersey.
It's definitely an Audi.
He’s a serious talent. He’s had two loan spells; in his first at Shrewsbury, he made the League One team of the season, at Sheffield United he was voted their young player of the season along with winning the Championship Golden Glove.
Not sure they are due one from the club to be fair.
Thought they used to dish out club/company cars to the kids in the past.

In four years, he's gone from the National League North to League two, League one and then the Championship. He fully deserves a regular Premier League spot next season, with us or with Sheffield United. If we are not going to make him no.1 next season, then we should try to leave him with Sheffield United.
Love this.

Give him the gloves. Can see the likes of Juve circling around him next year when we offer De Gea another gigantic contract.
This lad wants the chance, I say give it to him with de gea arsing over this contract no longer should we be held to ransom.
He's got the right attitude no doubt. He should at least be our 2nd choice. If de Gea is off I'd much rather we give him the chance than sign another promising young GK (like we have been linked with).
The best academy GK prospect since Foster?
I've said this many times, he looks like a proper top GK wonderkid.
if Italy has Donnarumma, England has Dean fecking Henderson.

Foster was not from our academy.
Maybe Henderson is the best prospect. GKs like Heaton also had decent career.
Am I wrong in thinking Heaton was never this impressive on loans or even in the youth teams?
From what I remember, he wasn't. He started really putting it together when he got to Cardiff and had a sharp upturn from there until this past season where be has I proved a lot.
Thought Henderson was pretty good last night. Wrong footed a bit on the first French goal but his line of vision might have been blocked. The rest of his game was pretty solid all told, better with his feet than DDG too.

I remember something like that also, but I think he Heaton had some serious injury a year or two ago? He's a very solid keeper but Henderson can be much better I think.
Decent with his feet, good saves, saved a pen (
) and has presence in goal.
) and has presence in goal.I know it sounds radical but I would get the best GK coach around - Wouldn’t mind Frans Hoek or someone like him - and make the lad No 1 with Dave his backup if he’s leaving in a free. He’s young so more susceptible to coaching. Most importantly he’s brave and has the right attitude. Look if we’re rebuilding I’d rather we blood a player like him. Just use the season to put things into place imho.
I would have no problems with him taking over from DeGea if he were to go.
Not sure how things work with loan deals but it would be great to keep him in the squad through preseason and having him coached by United and compared side by side with Romero and DDG. He looks to have the potential to take the 1 shirt in a few years.
I see it as a pointless exercise to bring him back this season, he would barely get a few minutes on the pitch and for a GK experience is essential and in a lower table club PL club he will be involved in a lot of action.

Risky to leave Dave on the bench and play him, would just be added pressure and press would be all over him after at mistakes. Better to pull the band aid off and let Dave go and give Dean the chance to be first choice proper.
At this rate if Dave won’t commit then I say sell him for the max we can get and give this guy a chance.
We could use the money elsewhere, and if he needs to bed In we’ve got Romero to bide us over for now.

Does he command the box well? Come for crosses?
If DDG doesn't extend contract sell now and use Romero & Henderson.
He was excellent yesterday, MOTM for me. Seems very talented.
The save from the right winger who cut inside, the penalty save, the 1 on 1 from dembele...
Big saves! The guy is a real talent

Ultimatum time for Dave. If you won't commit you wont play.
Dean is raring to go and an unbelievably talent with a fantastic attitude.
I can't wait to him play.
