Sorry to break your heart DeGea is not even a top 5 keeper in the world currently

I watch DeGea regularly and watch neuer too and Degea is very inferior to Neuer

Neuer has become the best keeper of his generation a long time ago. He is the standard to which keepers are compared. He is the Messi of goalkeepers

He has now gone beyond his generation he is now compared to all time legends like Yashin, Zoff etc while Degea is still a nobody in the world of football
Jumping around like Chijioke Ejiogu is not what makes a keeper.

Every keeping metric from Command of box, Shot stopping, Comfidence, Playing out of the back. Neuer is like a god to DeGea.

If DeGea ever matches Neuer for even 1 week of his career, he would be deemed a success
I don't watch Neuer always so I can't say. But your exaggeration na wai!

Coogar would have been in better position to argue this.

DDG was the MOTM in last week friendly between Spain and Italy.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 8:37am On Apr 05, 2016
Without sentiments I believe DDG is the best goalkeeper in the world right now. Even though I don't watch Neuer every now and then, I can still judge his progress from his UCL games. I believe DDG is progressing his game while Neuer is either static or even regressing.

However I will still like to see DDG improve on his box control while dealing with crosses. That is the aspect I greatly remember Van Der Sar. If you tried to stay in VDS's way in order to prevent him from going for aerial balls from set play, you would be wasting your time and even shorting your side. This season, calamity Gomez of Watford has been commanding in that aspect - dealing with aerial balls.

Between 2011/12 and 2013/14 season I surely preferred Neuer to DeGea, but I think DeGea has closed the gap and even has overtaken Neuer now.

How many years later Manuel Neuer is better than de gea
Manuel Neuer has gone to win the world cup and the CL
I think Neuer has been better than DDG until this season or last one.

Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that he had to be talked out of buying Manuel Neuer instead of David de Gea.

De Gea joined United from Ateltico Madrid as a gangly 20-year-old back in 2011 as a long-term replacement for Edwin van der Sar and got off to a sticky start during life at Old Trafford.

He eventually came through those tough early moments and is now regarded as one of the best goalkeepers on the planet and a firm fans’ favourite, winning United’s Player of the Year award last season.

But Ferguson has revealed that he initially wanted to bring Germany keeper Manuel Neuer to Manchester instead of de Gea, and had to be talked round by his former goalkeeping coach Eric Steele.

Ferguson said: “Eric Steele had been scouting David de Gea for quite a while, but then Neuer came on the scene at Schalke.

“And I think Schalke would’ve been happy if we’d have gone and taken him. So my problem was Eric, because he was adamant that we must take de Gea. I said ‘but Eric, the boy Neuer is the complete unit; he’s mature, his physique is unbelievable’, and he says ‘yeah, but in three years’ time, de Gea will be better’.

“Eric and I went out to watch him [de Gea] against Valencia away, and the things he’d been speaking about – his agility, his confidence, his speed – were evident.

“And Eric had been building a relationship with his parents, and was so adamant, that I had to trust him – and I’m glad I did, because he was right.”

I think you have just injured yourself. That's a BB plan which will burn out very fast on other devices.

Airtel has normal data 1G for 1K, 2G for 2K, 4.5G for 3.5K. These are the ones that run normal. You will enjoy the speed, although depending on your area. In my observation, it's the fasted generally.

Airtel is fraudulent when it comes to data. I will never touch any of their data bundle based on my several experience with their 3gb/1.5k which burns out within 2 days ni matter how careful you use it.
If you want to enjoy airtel data, don't use blackberry plan for other devices. Use the normal data plan N2k for 2G or IK for 1G.

It will last like normal data.

Blind is worse in midfield. Blind was exposed last season when Carrick got injured and he had to fill in, then we lost there matches in a row.

Blind is only good at left back. Again he cannot displace Luke Shaw there. Mensah will come in before him. So we should keep Blind as our new squad player like Oshea was for us.

However, he has to be given credit for the work he has done so far. He has stayed fit and developed his defensive play to suit his frail body and slow feet. We are generally playing very close to our box which gives the forward players much ground in front of them to cover. No wonder they tired out before time.

Morgan never went back to the holding role, he still continued in his box-box role, only if he had the brain to tell him that he needed to move back once Carrick left the pitch. Even if he had moved back, his awareness, buildup play and positional discipline are quite poor to operate in the role
You no know ball.

Herrera was constantly running like an headless chicken.
Carrick, even in his sluggish form was the bridge between the midfield and defence but once he left, the floodgate opened for Everton in the middle and they kept pumping the pressure.
Carrick was our DM in a 4-1-4-1. When he left Schneirderlin went to DM while Herrera joined the front four.

Out threat that period helped to push Everton back a little. Remember too, Carrick and Martial were giving the ball away.

Everton created little while Carrick was on the pitch other punting long ball to Lukaku who was easily dealt with by Blind.
You like to argue too much. The pressure was already on when Carrick was on the pitch. We were not going forward anyone. It's normal that a team down 0-1 thrown men forward when time is ticking away. Herrera offended so much freshsness in offensive play but the other guys were tired otherwise we should have scored more.

LOL!
Everton's pressure became much more as soon as Carrick came off and the team scored with Carrick on the pitch.
Infact, we created little chance and were sloppy in possession as soon as Herrera came on. The only thing Herrera added was pace but apart from this, he was sloppy.
The pressure was already there when Carrick was around , and we had no hope of going forward. Herrera helped us move forward.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 6:22pm On Apr 03, 2016
Our attack was better with Herrera. Martial and Rashford looked tired when Herrera came in, otherwise we would have added another goal.

These boys are really trying. Hope Martial is not injured? He was limping at final whistle.

Mensah is a revelation. And he is able to play across the defence line with was.

We are really under pressure. But we have had a few chances to kill the match. Even four against one counter he missed up.

Martial said he is first of all a striker. But I think he is sometimes too quiet in the striking role. Rashford is a better striker. Rashford plays more as a natural striker. He doesn't appear to be forcing it. He will develop his aerial contest of long balls to final third in the next few years.

Sir Alex Ferguson has sung the praises of Marcus Rashford, who has scored five goals in eight games since making his debut a few weeks ago.

Within those goals were two against Arsenal, in our 3-2 win, and our only goal in the derby day win against Manchester City.

Ferguson reckons Rashford is a great example of what separates United from the other clubs.

"You have to give him credit, he’s given nine young players their debut. I think the future is good. Rashford is an example of what I think is Manchester United.

"They are the one club in England who will always identify a Rashford and give a young kid a chance. There is no better club in England at giving young kids a chance. Rashford is a sensation and one of the best in years."

Sir Alex Ferguson has sprung to the defence of under-fire Louis van Gaal and urged fans to be patient during the club's current tribulations.

There has been growing unrest among large sections of the support about Van Gaal's handling of the team and the way they play but Ferguson, who still attends almost every match home and away, insists they should not be too quick to judge.

"It is dead easy to be critical, you have to be realistic about some things - the number of injuries he has had: Phil Jones has played only seven games this season, Ashley Young, Valencia, Shaw, these are big losses.

"It doesn't matter which team you are, if you have players missing of that calibre it has to have an impact on the team.

"The other aspect which is always easy to forget there are also five new players in their first season at United, and two are young players in Martial and Memphis and their promise is good.

"You have to have some patience being a Manchester United fan and they have shown that over the years; in Matt Busby's time, in my time.

"For 150 years of history it is worth having a couple of years on the quiet side of success because they will always come back and come back strong.

"You have to give him credit, he's given 9 young players their debut. I think the future is good."

This starting line up is stronger than many of the starting line up Rooney played in and they won. Even in this game, Clyne and Walcot came in 57th minute. Hurry Kane 69th minute when the game was 1-1.

Welbeck, Dele Ali, Dier were not there when England has been winning since. Kane came in much later during the qualifer. You have no argument.
