DDG looking absolutely shell shocked with what is going on in front of him. He deserves better.
He looked shell shocked."Come on, we can't even score a one goal"
I appreciate his honesty. He genuinely looked bamboozled by our predicament. Didn’t give it that ‘we go again’ shite.
Any clip?
Anyone blaming him is barmy. We end up with opposition players in far too much space far too often.
We can criticize his performance and mistakes all we want but this interview just shows he's still having a far higher standards for his team than anyone else in the club from the clueless manager to the crap CEO who are fine watching us in relegation form.
He can say he doesn’t know but he’s been at the club long enough to know what is wrong, he just can’t say.
Nobody can publicly say this player or that player is not good enough - Ole can’t cause he then turns into José and players can’t because they’re teammates.
They need someone who has the balls to do another Roy Keane MUTV interview and get it all out. The players know who deserves to be there and who’s stealing a career, they know the issues with owners, board, managers etc.
Until someone has the balls to say this, and as genuine as he was during that interview, we’ll continue to get wispy-washy bullshit until we’re relegated.

Course you can blame him. Most goals have a number of mistakes by the defending team, some big and some small. Maguire's error doesn't mean he wasn't at fault too. No keeper should get better from that distance by a shot so central. It's the kind of shot he'd save with his feet at his best.
It's hardly a surprise that you interpret it that way, given your general ability to analyze situations.
De Geas view is blocked by Maguire, it's a well struck shot, he's going sideways and when the ball passes Maguire he has extreme little time to react to it.
It's a fair point that his view was blocked but I'm curious as to why you find that funny. DDG is one of the best about at saving shots with his feet where other keepers would dive.
Because the ball isn't close enough to his body that he'd get his foot anywhere near the ball.
Watching the live action replay, it looks like he's plenty close enough. I will concede that the angles could be playing trick because there's no view square from the back of the goal. Do the stills from where he's stood initially before the ball is struck and where it went in the net. The thing about saving with your feet is that you can stretch and dive pretty far with out wasting the time it takes to dive down.

If you watch the angles straight towards De Gea or straight behind him, it's pretty obvious that he's never getting anywhere near that with his leg from where he's standing when he sees the ball, not to mention his feeting due to constantly adjusting his position. No way.

Fair enough, perhaps I was being a little harsh on him. Watched back some of his feet saves too and he doesn't dive into them all that much.
Interesting that he has come out to talk to the media after the games recently. Trying to make his claim for captain. I know maybe struggles with English still but the way he talked gave the impression of someone who is seriously worried.
Incredible interview really. Looked genuinely shocked. Very worrying times for the club.

I agree. Not at fault. But possibly could have been a save of the season which on a different he might have been able to make.
Injured tonight.
FFS. We're fecked for the Liverpool game this weekend.

Injured against Sweden. Looked like maybe the knee when hoofing away...
Looked good otherwise. À bit stressed a couplw of times but good saves.

We already were
Probably the least of our worries. He's the one player where we've got a good replacement to come in. We're fecked either way, but its not like its Roy Carroll replacing him.
They create their own luck (tm)
Oh, the humanity! Those were the days.
Romero is quality anyway, if we lose I doubt itll be because of a goalkeeping mistake.
He was having a good game and recently has been looking like the DDG of old. It didn’t look too bad when he was walking off. Oh well, I have full faith in Romero.
Its amazing Romero has stayed with us for so long. He's definitely good enough to be the number one for a top European team.
Ah we're fecking cursed.
Today he was good old de Gea again with amazing reflex saves. So sad to see him walk off.
Ffs.
Feel sorry for him, he's picked up form recently and seemed devastated after Newcastle. Still have faith in Romero.
Hope it's nothing too serious and that he's back for Sunday. This season just keeps on delivering.
Not much of a loss really at the moment. He's the one person we can afford an injury to.
It's not about a mistake. Defenders are definitely more mentally comfortable with De Gea behind them. De Gea also makes saves that keepers shouldn't often save and he excells 1v1 which is a chance we're sure to concede against Liverpool so whilst Romero might concede a goal or goals that isn't his fault at all those could be goals that De Gea was more likely to save. Not to mention Romero hasn't played much at all.
What matches have you been watching??
Lee will be ready.
if its a tear and he is out more long term are we able to call back pereria or henderson does anyone. dont doubt romero for a second but dont trust grant.
Sigh
And if we do lose due to a goalkeeping mistake, it’ll mean we actually played well enough to be close to liverpool. Win-win
