Did he not get the memo telling him that all keepers play out of their skin against us? I guess Fergie was to pi55ed to pass it on. Either that or he dropped it before he could read it.
Seriously though, the £20 odd million they spent on him makes Downing look like a bargin!
Maybe they should ask Van der Sar to come out of retirement too
Great result for us today and hopefully that can spur us on for a great run to the end of the season. It was quite nice to see that rather than having the lion’s share of possession and not getting a result, it was the other way around.

De Gea really is useless

De Gea needs to hit the gym and build up a bit otherwise he has no chance in the English game.

On reflection, maybe going with the partially sighted goalie was a bit of a mistake!

Spot on!
What a pleasant surprise to see an opposition keeper have an absolute mare.
Tiabi mark 2 was at fault for both goals with an excellent assist from Evra of all people for the second.
Lovely stuff.

Downing for me ran his heart out. Full marks to the man. He put in some excellent crosses. Credit where it is due. JimmyTheRed

Keane still managed a dig at Ferg though - which was nice
Had my article pulled about De Gea but I made the same point about him.
He should return to those Manga comics - he's not cut out for the real world of British football....
