Did his part as usual, nothing he could do about Dybala's goal and made a quality save from Ronaldo.
 
That save from Ronaldo was absolutely out of this world. That ball was flying at a serious rate into the top corner
Yes, especially how DDG went flying almost instantly. Sick reaction time & agility.
 
Add that to the highlight reel. Should have been a goal lets be honest. Curled from outside the post into the top corner with serious power :lol:
 
That whole passage of play was really good. world class shot from Ronaldo and world class save from De Gea. The best moment of the game.
 
Incredible save. Honestly each day that goes by without his renewal does get a bit more scary because he could choose who he wants to play for in reality. We need a top 4 place to ensure he doesn't think about going elsewhere to fight for the trophies his talent is good enough to have won multiple times.
 
If he regains his form it looks like he might be our player of the year YET AGAIN. If he gets any more green Matt Busby statues, his cabinet is going to break.

He doesn't actually have that many options now that won't be sideways/backwards moves from United, apart from Juve and Paris all top teams around Europe are perfectly settled with a long term keeper suited to them.
 
Makes some saves look so easy, which would be highlights for other keepers in other teams. But the sad thing is he has to do it so often for us.
 
We need to reign in our wage bill. DDG is already paid more than all other top GKs and paying anything near his rumored demand for £300k would be ridiculous.

The Sanchez move just made a bad situation worse.

If there is a single person in this team that deserves those type of wages it's him. The only person in this team who has put in consistent marvelous performances during all these shite years. Without him we would have finished 5th or below every season.

Following your logic we should make our strikers the highest paid for scoring goals, after all with out those goals we would have been relegated.

DDGis simply doing his job, which he is already being extremely well paid for.
 
De Geas transfer value has decreased from 43m to 27m EURO from May 2018 to today. That is 16m EURO in six months.
These are CIES numbers per today.
The total value is to low obviously but it is because the option year is not factored in. So this is like David´s contract would expire next summer.
Its logical to assume that the percentual decrease would be fairly the same though.
Eriksen for example has decreased in value from over 100m to mid-80ms during the same time.
Its extremely interesting numbers becuase it gives an inclination on what leverage the inflated transfer markets is going to give to players and agents when discussing new contracts.
We for example lose way more money on the decrease of De Geas asset value than on what we are paying him in wages during the same period.

true, but then if we got some decent defenders in and played better football then he wouldn't need to do what he does and thus not demand such silly fees. If we're the only club who pay a keeper 300k then what would we have to pay a top defender etc?

I'd rather he goes than pay him crazy money as this is snowballing into an unsustainable situation. We have a decent goalkeeper on 100k in romero.
 
Juventus 1:2 Man Utd
Anyone else noticed an improvement with his distribution?
 
I know it had too much power but that Ronaldo goal was on his near post . He has set the bar so high that i expect him to save such goals now:D
 
Makes so many awesome saves they get looked over these days

Hmmmmm. I think that goal was almost downplayed because it was Ronaldo - it was truly stunning, won't see many better goals this season. The technique to take that on the volley is just brilliant.

No way. It was literally passed him before he could react. Doesn’t matter where the ball was it was the power that beat him.
 
I thought he could have got there. Its played from the centre circle to 12 yards out from goal?

Yep, it was a world class strike that any GK in the world would have struggled to save. Cristiano could not have hit that any sweeter than he did.

His distribution suddenly improves when Fellaini is on the pitch. He finds the big fella every single time.

When he tries to play long to anyone else, they just never seem to reach it. So often you’ll find the ball just bouncing over our players. It’s baffling.
