Oasis007:9 goals in 30PL games. Gundogan has 12 and he operates from the midfield. We have too many mediocre players in the first team. |
Brighton players look more well coached & more drilled than United. That’s all you need to know that this manager is worse than Tunde Disu. |
Oasis007:Rashford has been rubbish all season but you aren’t allowed to criticize him cos he feeds poor kids in England. |
Expert17:You that I have already penned down as Henderson’s big brother. Every time Henderson concedes a goal, you shall be called out. |
eph12:Fred is a ball winner - he will always start. What he does with the ball after winning it is another topic entirely. If Ole isn’t a lunatic, he would have figured out how to use Fred effectively. |
Expert17:Why didn’t he come out for the cross? Isn’t this what De Gea gets hammered for? ![]() |
Lindelof is the weakest centre back on the planet. The way he gets bullied is just too painful to watch. How Bailly continues to be ignored for this Swedish lesbīan is nothing short of poor managerial acumen. |
Expert17:Henderson is out here assisting Danny Welbeck but don’t worry, he’s better than De Gea because the British media told you so. ![]() |
Expert17:Anybody could have won the UCL with Ajax at that age. They had a very good team. De Gea outshines outfield players in his club - that’s the only difference. When VDS was winning PFA team placement, there were at least 2 or 3 United defenders also in it & that tells you he was well protected. De Gea was winning PFA team slots in teams that finished 6th with defenders that aren’t up to standards. VDS had 3 PFA slots, De Gea has had 5. They have both spent the same number of years in England(if you include VDS’ spell at Fulham). How come De Gea outperformed VDS that had the best centre halves in Europe as cover for more than 5 years? ![]() You are a clown, mate. Expert17:You said he had no confidence. I didn’t say that made him better than VDS. I was shooting at your lack of confidence angle. Expert17:You should go back and get more training on what a quality goalkeeper should be. De Gea won BBC’s save of the season awards in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018 behind the worst defenders in the league and you are comparing him to VDS? Who’s VDS? What’s a VDS? ![]() Expert17:Pique & Ramos that were in the twilight of their career by the time De Gea started keeping for Spain? ![]() |
Expert17:So you are saying the club must have been biased towards De Gea to give him 4 Matt Busby awards in 5 years - maybe you are right. Maybe De Gea has pörn videos of Woodward that he’s using to blackmail Ed. So how come De Gea has also gotten more PFA team of the year placements than Van Der Sar ever did? Did De Gea also blackmail all his fellow professional players that voted him as the best GK in the league? #Sighs. ![]() |
Expert17:De Gea that won under17 trophy & 2 unde21 trophies for Spain doesn’t have any confidence. Left the comfort of his country at 19 to come and swim with the sharks in the toughest league in the world and that’s not confidence. Some of you De Gea critics have never left your state but a teenage boy that did it has no confidence or positioning. De Gea that was once regarded as the best goalkeeper in the world despite playing for one of the worst defence units in Europe. Don’t make me laugh. |
Expert17:Why won’t he? He played with Rooney, Ibrahimovic, Di Maria, Alexis, Falcao, Mata, Pogba, Van Persie, etc and won it. Expert17:What has this gotta do with club football? |
Expert17:He’s better than VDS in all these aspects. The only thing DDG doesn’t do at all is coming for crosses and that has to do with his fear of being clattered. It’s a flaw but he covers it well with his cat instincts. |
VillageBus:De Gea didn’t win 4 Man Utd player of the year awards to be compared to a bum like Dean Henderson. FYI, no other Man Utd player in their 100+ years history have won more club awards than De Gea. He’s won the award more than world class players like Ronaldo, Ruud, Rooney, Keane, etc . If De Gea was British, he would have a statue outside Old Trafford. This sudden disrespect of one of the best players at this club is shameful. |
Expert17:The only thing VDS does better than DDG is the commanding of his area. De Gea beats him in every other aspect of goalkeeping. It’s not even close. |
Expert17:Henderson won’t get 20 caps for England, never mind 45. Expert17:You cannot expect De Gea to be bailing them out all the time. De Gea has paid his dues at United, it’s about time the club starts giving him back his respect. I remember when De Gea was the only world class player at the club. Winning the club’s player of the year awards almost every season. He never abandoned the club for the bigger clubs that time. He was loyal. Even when LVG/Woodward wanted to sell him to Madrid and the fax machine got in the way of the deal, De Gea never kicked a fuss or downed tools. He never said nonsense to the media. He was loyal to the very end. Now that he’s out of form, this shameless club wants him out for a rookie nobody rates outside UK. Rashford, Maguire, James, and the other British liabilities at the club are doing just fine - even with their pathetic performances year after year but De Gea who has always been loyal can get the chop. If that doesn’t make your skin crawl, I don’t know what else to say. Man Utd have no class. That’s the moral of the story here. Expert17:Like I said, he cannot keep bailing this club out. He’s done it for almost 10 seasons. The club should get him quality defenders. The era of making 14 saves per game is well and truly over. Why should he kill himself for a club that is disloyal to him? Expert17:The final is the most important game. It’s the one that gets you the reward of winning the trophy. It’s the one that has the most pressure of any competition. 90 mins game between yourself and glory. Nothing tops that feeling. |
96forever:It’s nostalgia - people tend to rate what happened in the past over what they see now. Besides, the wall to wall reporting of football games these days, social media, etc also heighten the flaws of today’s players. Something that was barely existing in VDS days. As a goalkeeper, I have never seen any United GK do what De Gea did against Arsenal at the Emirates in 17/18 or at Spurs in 18/19. It’s the best performance from a GK I have ever been privileged to see. VDS was never at that top level. Never ever. |
VillageBus:EFL isn’t a top division league. Stop comparing apples to oranges. |
Expert17:It’s incomparable because Henderson only gets to play against bottom tier teams while De Gea is rested for the big boys. Of course, the stats are skewed. Expert17:Exactly - De Gea has 45 caps for Spain at 29. Henderson is 24 years of age and has only 1 cap for Spain. There’s a reason for that. Expert17:This is ridiculous. Expert17:Bailly had 13 PL apps, Jones had 23 PL apps in 17/18. ![]() Expert17:Europa league? Against the bottom feeder clubs of Europe? ![]() Expert17:De Gea was the FA cup final goalie against Palace in 2015/16, league cup final goalie against Southampton in 16/17, he won both cups with class. Expert17:Sanchez was never on £500k/week. The add-ons were never activated. Those add-ons were performance related if he won the PL, UCL, etc Besides, what has Martial won since Sanchez left? Nada. Sanchez is about to win Serie A - it’s a shame on Martial. |
Expert17:De Gea isn’t worse with age. There’s no proof of that. The defence in front of him is totally useless. Why do we blame Maguire, Lindelof all the time? It’s because they expose De Gea all the time. Expert17:There’s no proof of that. We cannot dwell on shoulda coulda woulda. I would put my money on a GK that did it with Smalling & Jones over someone who hasn’t done it before. Expert17:Maybe you are right, maybe you aren’t. We don’t know & there’s no proof that Sergio would have won 3 golden glove awards by now. Expert17:OLE wasn’t right to sell Sanchez & Young cos their replacements have won nothing. They aren’t even good enough to play in a cup final so how is OLE right? |
VillageBus:Who won the golden glove in 17/18 season? |
VillageBus:Both of whom? |
Expert17:The shelf life of a goalkeeper is different from outfield players. You are an expert - you should know this without having me to point it out to you. Van Der Sar joined United when he was 35 years of age. De Gea is only 30 - he’s got about 5-8 years left in him as a professional footballer. Expert17:Like I have said - GKs get better and better with age. The older they are, the more experience and the better output. Stop comparing them with outfield players. Expert17:None of them won has the golden glove, De Gea has. This was how y’all used same narrative to push out Lukaku, Sanchez, Young, etc - they are on their way to win a league title in Italy while United are stuck in mediocrity since 2013. And we are supposed to believe those players don’t fit Ole’s style - the failure style that hasn’t even managed to play in a cup final in almost 3 years. |
MRTA7:Mediocre Henderson - had one above average season at Sheffield United and he suddenly thinks he’s world class. Nobody rates him outside of England. I am not even sure Henderson is better than Romero that Ole has made redundant. Every big decision this club has made in the last 3 years has been the wrong one. |

https://cdn.theathletic.com/app/uploads/2021/04/01065815/manchester_united_tilemap_2020-21.png How’s he stay padding when he’s got this amount of non-penalty goals from the midfield? |
Teeboy2300:What is dundlehead? Oh you mean, dunderhead? Product of a village school. So you spent more than 20 years in school and you don’t know it’s called dunderhead? Are you a slowpoke? And this fool said Samsung didn’t put a scary warning on their product concerning Iris Scanner? You don’t even own one, how would you know? This poster boy for poverty is actually disputing a well known fact. You are a disgrace to your parents. ![]() I want to see how you would wriggle out of this new lie of yours. ![]()

theoneJabulani:I can be anything I want, fandroid. I am illimitable, I have no limits. theoneJabulani:Nigga please. |
CrystalTiger:It would have been the goal of the season. Vardy turned an £80m defender into a £8 defender with the way he cancelled Maguire in that action. It was as if Maguire wasn’t there. It was so painful to see that a United defender could be made to eat artificial grass like that. ![]() |
