I was a huge Shearer fan when he was a player. He was the best finisher in the World at that time.
But to mention DDG with Lloris...Alan, I think you need to have a lie down.
IMO nobody should be mentioned alongside DDG. He is the best, by a good margin.
Not far off who? Give me names please.

feck me. I genuinely think watching United over the past 3 years has desensitised me from so-called "great saves" from other keepers. De Gea comes out with impossible ones week in week out.
This. We have players performance posts well over 10k for some of them and the best player of our club can't even manage a quarter of that. What a bloody brilliant keeper. The best in the world and by some fair distance.
I am glad and grateful Fergie preferred him to Neur.
G.O.A.T (even looks a little like one too)
Running out of superlatives.
He's the best Keeper I've ever seen I think. He's worth at least £50 million imo.
When he retires, he has to be our GK coach no matter what. Doesn't matter if you can't coach the things he does, his mere presence will boost our future group of keepers.
It feels wrong to expect a keeper to save penalties but I do with Dave.
Fergie preferred Neuer. It was Eric Steel who swung the decision.
Just build the statue now.
How long would this thread be if we didn't just expect him to be great every game?
Really don't want him to win player of the season because its getting a bit boring but yeah, its his in the bag isn't it. Next season, Tony martials coming for you!
Best keeper in England.
hehehe
hehehe
Courtois is better, you should have a look at him in the summer.
Thank you!
Should be our #1 priority, again, to retain him and bump his wage up to that of the premier players in world football.
We would be nowhere without him, and he's doing all of this with a sub-par defense and midfield in front of him.
He's our best player and should be recognised as such in terms of pay grade and promotions.
But he made the final decision. So credit should always go to him. It's never easy to make such a decision considering how much more well established Neuer was. Ofcourse Steele played his part in that.
He is ridiculous. Inhuman. Love him to bits.
Pointless post. Well done.
eh, nvm. Don't really care.
Kind of wish Spain win the Euros just so that he can be in the conversation for the Ballon d'Or. Has no chance currently, with us not winning anything, but he's definitely among the best players in the world.
Providing he plays.

How ridculoUs is that?!
Awww.
I am pretty sure Neuer was our first choice but chose Bayern over us so we went for De Gea instead.
Nah. Fergie mentioned it himself that DDG was the priority after him and Steel went to watch him for a La Liga game.
Well I'm only going off what Fergie said.
SAF said he could have probably got Neuer from Schalke if he wanted but listened to Steele.
Hope he stays forever.
It's hard to come up with the words at times to describe his performances. He is just immense.
Best in the world
Everywhere I read about De Gea they say - seriously challenging Neuer for best in the world. There's no comparision. Neuer always has a mistake or two in him. Watch him in a Champions league game and you can smell it coming if he gets too excited. He wishes he were as good as Spanish Dave.
David has been the best Goalkeeper around for three years now.

Honestly on this season's performance and last season, Neuer isn't even top 2 for me. Like Haddock mentioned, he does make quite a few mistakes and I don't think he's that good on 1 v 1's.
Best in the world.
Imagine if he had a strong defensive unit in front of him as well.

He's the best in the world, full stop. Neuer is clearly very good and has great physical attributes, but ask yourself - how well would he have done in our squad over the past few seasons? We've hung De Gea out to dry on many, many occasions. I can't believe that Neuer would have come through with his reputation in tact, let alone enhanced. It may be a pipe dream, but I sure hope we can hold onto De Gea for at least a few more seasons. Brilliant player.
Please never leave us, Dave.
