Had another shocker of sorts tonight
Stayed rooted to his line (his one major weakness which to a manager who wants a sweeper keeper as most seem to do these days may mean the end of his time at United under a more progressive manager) for the first goal and for the second goal parried the ball straight to the Croatia player to win the game
Such a mystery as to why he’s so good for us and so poor for Spain. I know he’s a fan favourite and in some aspects is one of the best keepers in the world. But I don’t think a manager like Pep would touch him for City with his reticence to ever come off his line. If we get a new manager who wants us to press sides is it really that huge a loss if he goes and we get a keeper who may not be as good a shot stopper but who is a lot quicker off his line?

He is massive evidence of just how susceptible humans are to myth creation.
An excellent example to social analysts (such as myself) of how 'tribalism' creates, maintains and further generates the necessary falsehoods needed to form the foundations of weak people's symbol based 'reality'.
Long since recognised that, great and as passionate as my lifelong support for MUFC has been, the club will continue to be an unsuccessful league team whilst Coco is the goalkeeper.
Not a thought, feeling or anything else just as ethereal, just a singular reality.
Looking forward to when he his gone (which is looking far too distant) and the club, team, players etc., can get back to playing proper league football again.
Don't don't don't believe the hype.

Grow up and go and support another team then.

Classic response of a cowardly, lightweight, shoot through.
Things not going well, turn your back and run.
It is none of your business - seeing as how you are just an insignificant ........ well, insignificant insignificance really. But, having follwed the club through relegation etc., I can more than cope with a period of limited relative non-success because an inappropriate keeper weakens the defensive unit (and thus the team). It'll start to begin to turn around when he has gone. I have patience enough.
Not my fault you think you know better when you don't, but I will promise to endeavour to "grow up" providing you promise to just grow.
Other than that try to become less than insignificant.
Toodle pip, and thanks for giving me the opportunity to post my diatribe twice.

I'm sorry, You're the bellshaft that doesn't rate De Gea, I dread to think who you'd want to replace him, Now pisssssssssssssssssssssss off and support some other club, Because you won't be missed on here.

I think he’s a brilliant WUM.
In a way, quite beautifully understated: doesn’t post too frequently, doesn’t go chasing bites, is consistent in the nonsense he posts, writes often quite eloquently...
He’s not your Hollywood blockbuster WUM like Wahl; he’s not even your Oscar-nominated, audience-wowing WUM like Barry. His is a carefully crafted wummery that many will dismiss as strange or boring - “I just don’t get it,” they’ll say.
Like the oft-misunderstood Kings of Cannes - Herzog, Lynch, Lean and Leigh - IAmMe ignores the mainstream WUM, shunning the headlines, the glory, attention and infamy, and focusing instead on his work, figuratively chipping away at his performance art masterpiece, sat in his smoking jacket tapping away in the dark, an ash-laden Gauloise hanging loosely from his concerned leer (probably).

Thing about De Geas situation is he is obviously too good for United but where is he going to go if he does leave? The only one of Europe's giants with a poor keeper is Juve but even they bought Perin who should be starting.
Both Madrid's and Barca have top level young keepers who don't need replacing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Also who is this new "progressive" manager going to replace him with when you consider ed will be involved in the deal
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably join the trend of having a goalkeeper who's a better outfielder than he is an actual goal keeper
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Its not "a trend"
