Get rid of this clown now.
I don't like when people post this sort of stuff. He's been amazing for at least 6 years, he deserves some respect I feel. Yeah, he is making mistakes, and maybe should leave, but to call him a clown doesn't sit right with me (along with all the other posts, not just yours).

Been shite since he signed his big contract.

Been pisspoor past season as well

People still defend him in the performance thread. Based on his form three seasons ago.

Why not drop him? Why is he immune to that? I don’t quite get it.

He has been making mistakes non stop for 18 months. It’s not one mistake. He literally cost us 4th place last year.

I along with others expressed the other season that he was done at the top level and giving him a new contract was a mistake and a fast track to Sanchez 2.0.

Here we fecking are folks, here we are...

We're well past the point where his reaction saves make up for the lack of presence, the dreadful kicking and the mistakes.

Think he's forcing Ole to have to make a decision on him, similar to how Lingard seems to have played his way to the point of no return.

Why did Solskjaer even play him? I don't understand.

It's odd, he has gone from being the best in the league to being 3rd choice at United.

The mistakes & soft goals are piling up. He needs to be dropped.

Yeah, time to think about a replacement. Been up and down too long now.

Feet up at home.
I'd prefer Romero or Henderson to him next season now - he's been pathetic lately. Yes he was superb. Now he isn't.

I wonder how much Ole will tolerate. De Gea looks more like the one that arrived from Atletico, he had to earn his place back from Lindegaard. At this point I think he should have to earn it back from Romero.

People calling him clown after all he did for the club are fecking clowns themselves. Mind boggling stuff. :houllier:

We need Henderson here next season, keep De Gea at least one more year, it can benefit them both, either De Gea steps up when he for the first time in years, have someone that actually can take his spot, if not he will be a great mentor and Henderson can grow even more by learning some things from De Gea. Win win situation for us, and if Henderson really takes the spot can keep up with his form even in a big club with all the pressure etc that comes with it, then it's time to say a big thank you and good bye to David next summer.

De gea wasnt going to age well like the other goalkeepers do.

He was using his reflexes and instincts which benefits him whilst he is young.

Now he clearly doesnt have it to the same standards.

Give peas a chance.
We've got probably one of the better #2's in the league and DDG's still not dropped when he plays poorly. He needs the fear of being dropped for a long period IMO. Worked for him at the start of his career with us, and we should definitely try it again.

Speaking of, he just scored a header today. :lol:
