Not really. Flapping at crosses, whatever he was doing for both goals. Poor on the ball.
Very poor.
We're gonna disagree on that one.
The only positive to the display was that he wasn’t the worst keeper on the pitch.
Yeah not at all
Yeah, I’m absolutely correct.
Positive debut. Brought confidence and good with his feet.
I don’t know what some of you guys was watching.

Little slow reacting to the first goal, also felt his starting position should of been bit higher for it.
But other than that not a bad debut. Did everything you would expect and looked comfartable with the ball at his feet under pressure.

phelan shorts, did Dubravka shag your wife or something, you seem desperate to shit on him
Think he could have done better for the first but the second? He literally closed the angle to the goal so Bailey is heading it to the 6 yard box where a defender is stood...unfortunately said defender proceeds to smash it in our net.
Don't think he was that bad at all and fine as a number 2.
Swept and passed the ball well, could have done better on the first goal, shag all he could have done about the second.
It was pretty much the same stuff people have been creaming over DDG for doing.
Martin Du... Gea
Reserve keeper performing exactly as expected. Decent backup, nothing more nothing less.
He was poor for the first goal, no denying that. But other than that he was decent enough, certainly not a liability or anything.
He did okay in the first half. Second half he looked more nervous, his passing out became a bit erratic and he sold the defenders short a couple of times.
It's one of those that will get glossed over because we won. I thought he should've done better for the Watkins goal.

He was fine, to be expected for a backup keeper.
I think we're all a bit spoilt from having Romero as our backup, no one's reaching that standard of 2nd choice keepers

I thought Heaton was the better GK anyway.
I think we learnt two things about him last night.
1. He is decent on the ball
2. He is also afraid of it.

He trains with DDG after all
DDG would have saved their first goal yesterday. He does not dive away from the ball when here is a shot coming.
Given that he failed to stop a goal against the same team from the same position less than a week ago, I've no idea how you could claim this.
Didnt villa score the same type of goal vs DDG on the weekend? Hmm
He looked as expected, a keeper playing his first game of the season in a cup match. He wasnt outstanding but not poor like some suggest
First goal was laughable. Most strikers will score from that position but closing your eyes and turning your face away does most of the job for the striker.
He was alright for a second keeper. Should have saved the first goal though, had he kept his body position instead of lowering his arms and making himself smaller, and I think the second was also saveable.
How do you think he could have saved the second one?
Actually to be fair I forgot it was Dalot who turned it in, I thought Dubravka had got his positioning wrong.
He was a slightly odd signing tbh. He's not good with his feet, which is clearly what ETH wants.
Am I the only one who noticed that he was scared of the ball like a little baby for both goals last night?
Looked like he lowered his arm to protect his body. Afraid of the ball.
Look the replay at 0:30
and compare that to 0:13 in this video:
I think you'll see my point.
No idea what you're getting at. I saw two saveable shots both from the inside left channel.
Both thought it was going one way and then had the goal go past them the other way? I'm not quite sure of your point here.
It doesn't exactly prove ddg saves the shot
The clips show the two goals are not comparable. De Gea did not have the goal go past him the other way, he's actually after the ball but cannot reach it. Dubravka doesn´t go either way, he just dives away. He could have saved it with this left hand if he had done like most goalkeepers do in that situation - making their body as big as possible. Instead, he seems to be just protecting his body. It really looks like he's afraid of being hit by the ball.
This is how he should have acted (2:40 into the video):

He was good with his feet could do little about the goals.
If your point is to say they aren't the same , that's fine although I was using hyperbole for the comparison given the similarities
But again it doesn't show how ddg ends up saving the goal when your evidence is him... Not saving a goal ...
You are asking for hard proofs that De Gea would have saved the goal? I'm not sure that is doable.. haha. I'm just saying I think he would have saved it, and many stoppers with him, based on how good goalkeepers act in these situations.
Utter clown show of a keeper. Bin him off back where he came from in January.
Oh dear.
Worst clean sheet I've ever seen.
