Great keeper but he get's the Shilton treatment from commentators, even a routine save is greeted with rapture. That said at least he doesn't do camera saves at will like Peter.

Tina liked it when he did them though.

[torahboy]

That's nonsense.  Switch the keepers around and that hits the back of the net.

 

Then again that's the difference in having a good shot stopper and a bang average keeper.  The good one wins you points and yesterday he won them a point.

 

It was a kick off the line he was rooted to, at the near post, from a corner, and fuck all else. The cunt got lucky. And that's about it.

[VladimirIlyich]

He's a really good keeper, but can't help thinking that save has been overplayed. Came pretty slow & within reach, had to laugh about him 'playing it out to Jones '.

 

Mignolet has made plenty of decent reflex saves with his legs and feet for us , and if he had made that save yesterday it would have been ' f***ing hell , Tony's ma would have stopped that '.

He saves them 10-15 points a season while our goalkeeper generally costs us about the same amount of points. Spurs,City and Chelsea all have decent/half decent keepers who generally save them points too. This adds up over 40+ games a season. Southall was a prime example when the Bloos had their purple patch in the 80s too. Goalkeepers are now rightly valued much higher than they used to be yet we have spent a fair bit of cash in recent years and still dont have one. As for De Gea yesterday,that was an excellent save but probably all he really had to do and was similar to how Ray Clemence had to be in our great sides.

[Jay86]

He is such a hypocrite. He parked the bus and then uses excuses to cover up his shithouse tactics, the very same tactics he hates when other smaller clubs use them against his own team.

This in one.

 

I feel myself getting angry when he says it when West Brom go to Old Trafford and do it and the shithouse interviewer never says to him “like you do”. I’m getting angry now thinking about it! He’s a cock.

I'd be disappointed if Mig let a shot that close to him, hit at that power, go past him.   I also think he'd get severe criticism for it.  

 

Good reactions but that's what he's paid for.  Just a routine save for me, Clive.

And of course it would be nice if he was pulled up on it. Like last night when he said he had no bench to call on despite it being full of players who would hold their own in most starting elevens.

[TheHowieLama]

Rashford would play every week for us and score about eleventy golas a game.

[Jennings]

Great save. Great keeper. Regularly rescues the team.

Totally agree with this. No way would Mignolet have saved that, dont think many other goalies would. Agree that Mignolet is not as bad as some people make it, but the difference between him and de Gea is 10-20 points over a season.

[Jockey]

I thought Gomez played well at right back?

[corro]

He had a very good game. He's coming on really well after his set backs. He'll end up centre back and be fucking boss.

Yep. As much as we hate the fuckers they have a cracking gk who we wish we had and its no good saying anything to the contrary.

[torahboy]

He's like every other goalkeeper in this medocre league: capable of the odd decent game and also capable of absolute fuck ups. You can think that he's Gordon Bamks and Ray Clemence combined but for me he's one of a herd.

De Gea?

 

Your nuts imo if so

He is a quality keeper who has won them double digits points for the past few years

Your opiunion means absolutely fuck all to me.

Yeah good one prick

That's how Dawkins signs off, only with punctuation.

Fuck me I hate Utd more than anyone but to say De Gea is the same as the rest your mental! He’s the best keeper in the world now by quite a distance. He’s the reason they haven’t fallen deep into mediocrity, he basically kept them competitive through Van Gaal’s reign single handedly.

[Lee909]

Oh the fucking irony of getting pulled up on punctuation by a prick that could not spell opinion correctly

[torahboy]

Again, no punctuation. Unworthy of further attention.

I don't know about that.

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

De Gea is a great keeper, anyone thinking or saying otherwise must not watch him very often.

[Jockey]

Nothing wrong with a bit of pig headed bitterness.

 

Quite a few seem unwilling to acknowledge the quality in Gomez, Gini, Firmino, Salah etc because of previously stated opinions. I think he is quality and I like him because he clearly isn't too arsed about them. But happy enough for people to call him overated.

[KMD7]

I can't think of anyone better than De Gea, currently.

[Elite]

De Gea is fucking brilliant, to think otherwise is bizarre.

[Pureblood]

I can't think of anyone better than De Gea, currently.

 

Manuel Neuer?
