Since we signed him, I've lost count of the times I've thought the opposition were definitely about to score, only for DDG to somehow save us. Miracle man.
 
Mata must really really hate him :lol:

2nd time he's stopped him from getting a late winner.

Today was a certain goal I thought, it's Mata on his magical left foot from point blank range. It was unthinkable that he wouldn't score.

aye, i was already up about to curse. couldnt believe it.
 
I would've fancied myself to score, let alone a great talent like Mata. Chelsea must be sick of the sight of David. :D

What happened with the second goal? I was behind the shot and it looked like he should've saved it to be honest.

Not really sure, he got his fingers to it, hard to tell from the slow mo replays how much he could have done. Hard to judge.
 
He's going to be the best in the world in the very near future.
 
Sensational save. When the shot left Mata's boot it was already in the back of the net in my head and I was cursing a late defeat. Only to somehow see it go wide. Let's just hope it wasn't for nothing.
 
People keep using language like "he'll be excellent in a few years time..." or "he's going to be great...". Well I think we're way past that now - he's already there. Makes saves no others can but it's not 2/3 times a season but pretty much every game, distribution is incredible and makes no more mistakes as any other keeper. Forget the future De Gea, his ability right now is the best in the league - I wouldn't swap him for anyone else.
 
The guy has raised the bar on goalkeeping saves. Can't tell the amount of goals other teams concede and I say 'de Gea would have got that'

I think you're getting carried away.

It was a good save for the Mata chance but he just made himself big, it's hardly revolutionary in the world of goalkeeping.

Raising the bar as a goalkeeper is quite silly, makes your job harder.
 
His saves are incredible...i've not seen a keeper that good at saving with his feet. His hands just get in the way.
 
Loved how the defence celebrated that save with him too. Trying to find a gif of that. As good as a goal, that save.

Yep, some of the saves are ridiculous

I'm not talking about revolutionary mate. It's the fact he's making these saves which is just ridiculous. I still can't get over how he got to Coentrao's shot in the first leg.

He ran across his line and stuck his foot in the air.
 
No I said it was a good save today, I just think keepers are there to make saves, it's their job. I don't think we need to use words like 'miracle' or 'raising the bar.'

"strikers are there to score goals, therefore we shouldn't say any finish is amazing..."


:wenger:
