    De Gea beaten at his near post once again it’s not the 1st time this season Coutinho hit a similar cheap finish past him. Our young man is world class with his legs, more so than his arms.

    He had the shot covered, it was the deflection that beat him. He may be unorthodox, but he saves a lot more shots which he has no right to save than lets in soft goals. No need for anybody to criticise him, he is a winner and is probably his own biggest critic.

    De Gea looked silly yesterday with the first half mistake which was narrowly missed by Rakitic and also looked pretty untidy for the second goal, even with the deflection. I doubt he will lose his spot to Casillas because he has been imperious for nearly 3 years now.

    Just proves he’s human and not in United colours so I don’t care.

    Agree about the Rakitic effort, De Gea isn’t the best when he’s farting around with the ball at his feet. For the winner, agree, there was a slight deflection, otherwise he had it covered. Didn’t like the way Hoddle slated him though and ignored the deflection. Not sure he’d have done that if it had been the Spurs keeper. Fact is though, goalkeepers make mistakes, even Neuer. De Gea is generally a good keeper and saves us more points than he loses us.

    @jm1502. De Gea is not a “good keeper” mate, he is the best in the world – he had a bad game is all. It’s the first time in at least 3 years that we can say that.

    Hoddle is a prat.

    Not sure De Gea is the best in the world and he’s definitely not the finished article hatters, but I’m more than happy with him mate. Old MMI’s never rated him, which is fair enough.

    @jm1502. Surely Neuer is the only possible contender. I am adamant that De Gea is the best GK in the world and he will still improve even further.

    Watch Neuer properly and you will see he is loose cannon often caught out of position. De Gea is better at positioning, has better reflexes and shot stopping plus he has a strong knack of upping his game in the most important moments. The only thing Neuer is better than De Gea at is martialling the defence and that is simply because he is older/more experienced.

    Neuer is too erratic nowadays. He’s more like Barthez than Schmeichel. Give me de Gea any day.

    Agree with you both about Neuer but football’s all about form. On last night’s display, and if you hadn’t seen him play before, not sure you’d think De Gea was the best keeper in the world. Anyway, all about opinions – I wouldn’t swap him.

    MMI – Ha ha mate, clutching at straws aren’t you? Must have been waiting for a mistake from De Gea for years!! I just need to wait until he’s beaten at his near post again and then I’ve got two examples!! Ha ha, i’m sorry mate i’m gonna say this is pathetic by even your standards. De Gea has made amazing save after amazing save for 3 years now and the kid is still very raw and young he will only get better and better. Casillas had said a couple of years ago that “De Gea will retire us all” and he’s not wrong. Isn’t it funny when someone has an agenda that they’re willing to wait literally years for any scrap of evidence that they can shoehorn into their argument. Must admit i thought you’d be the bigger man and stand up and say you were wrong when you said De Gea would never be good enough for Man Utd. Looks like i was wrong there. By the way Ronaldo missed a penalty the other night so he’s surely s**t now as well.

    If MMI is of the opinion that de Gea is shit and not good enough for Utd then his/her credibility on here has just hit rock bottom.

    I hear that Messi fella has never won a World Cup. What a hack!
