He did it with likes of Stam you clown. DDG did it with likes of Jones and Maguire and smalling

You're a clown

Yeah. DDG needs to go. Like top 3 players we need to replace to take the next step. Striker, midfielder and goalkeeper.

Did you run this article past Hafi first?

Yes... in his worst nightmares

Pleased for him. Not the keeper we need if we want to be a side that dominates possession and builds confidently from the back.

A club legend based on his ability, longevity and achievements (clean sheet record and player of year awards)

Definitely a club legend.

Whilst I do get peoples points about his distribution, you just know if we do replace DDG at some stage with a more technical goalkeeper, there's every chance there's a trade off that they possibly aren't as good at making the big saves in key moments.

For me at this moment in time, it's more important to sign a top goalscorer. Weghorst has done a good job with his link up play, but he also showed yesterday (and most other games) that he's not going to be a big goal threat.

Hopefully we can also keep hold of Sabitzer in the summer.

Yeh I'm in no rush to get rid of de gea.

He needs to sign a new contract

De Gea had a great start. It is a myth he had a horrible start. He was our best player in 11/12 and 12/13 seasons but after that slowly declined.

I wouldn't go that far. I was at his first semi competitive game (Shield against City) and he looked very shakey and nervous. He was targeted from set pieces and crosses in the air a lot to begin with.

Then he became a very very good goalkeeper after bulking up and settling in.
