In 2011/12 De Gea was 1st choice until October 1st where it kinda swapped between the 2 but Lindegaard kept a run of 4 clean sheets in a row until January. He was in goal when we lost against Newcastle 3-0 and also when we beat City 3-2 away in the FA Cup. Then he picked up an injury and didn't play much else. In that season he got 11 appearances.can someone remind me... a few years ago, was he battling it out with de gea to be number 1? did they split most of the games in that season after VDS left?
Yeah he played a lot. DDG needed time to adapt to league and made some costly mistakes so he was often dropped and tbf to Lindegaard he did a good job when we needed him.can someone remind me... a few years ago, was he battling it out with de gea to be number 1? did they split most of the games in that season after VDS left?
that's what i thought... cheersYeah he played a lot. DDG needed time to adapt to league and made some costly mistakes so he was often dropped and tbf to Lindegaard he did a good job when we needed him.
There was some questions about DDG future and if Lindegard would take the number 1 spot but DDG improved massively since then.
exactly. his performance last year against newcastle showed what he was capable of.It's a shame for him as he never really let us down, I don't remember any significantly poor performances or errors that I thought "oh he's rubbish definitely a number 2". Unfortunately for him De Gea has always had the higher potential and he has never looked back since his first season. Lindegaard though is a solid keeper and I am sure many of the grade 2 clubs around Europe would happily take him.
Perhaps a tad unfair, but the 5-5 away to West Brom didn't help his image, especially since he was given the start to qualify as having enough matches for a PL medal. By then he had clearly lost out to DDG as our #1, and that was the the first start he had in a while and didn't go so well. He's barely played since.It's a shame for him as he never really let us down, I don't remember any significantly poor performances or errors that I thought "oh he's rubbish definitely a number 2".
I know what he's implying but it actually reads as "It's better I keep quiet than come up with some sort of bullshit"Tweet

Interesting hashtag.
No wayI like Lindegaard and think he's a very good keeper, why are clubs not interested in him, I reckon he'd start for half of the premier league teams yet he's our 3rd choice keeper! Shame as we're probably gonna lose him for nothing. Should have tried to loan him at least.

He could still go in the next weeks.......transfer windows in Russia or Scandinavia are still openI don't think he was ever that good, tbh. And now I'd assume he's on a big contract with little on the way of offers that go anywhere close.
He's played 19 games for us since 2010 according to wiki. Pretty abysmal stat. No way he would start for half the league. He's probably struggling to find takers because frankly no one really knows what he's like anymore. I guess he's happy enough collecting the pay check though.I reckon he'd start for half of the premier league teams yet he's our 3rd choice keeper!
He was awful in the crazy match against ReadingI thought he was a solid backup for us. I don't remember ever thinking that Lindegaard was at fault for a goal or bad result. I do remember his distribution was extremely poor in a few games, which is probably why LvG wants nothing to do with him.
LvG? Lindegaard has been wanting to leave since last summer. He wants to play. He isn't going to play ahead of De Gea.I thought he was a solid backup for us. I don't remember ever thinking that Lindegaard was at fault for a goal or bad result. I do remember his distribution was extremely poor in a few games, which is probably why LvG wants nothing to do with him.
