Of course.
Ten Hag wants a keeper who is comfortable in distributing the ball. If Ten Hag is our manager next season then it makes zero sense to give DDG a new contract.
Man City 4:1 Man Utd
Disgrace. How many times can he give the ball away and invite attacks?!
Absolute bluffer. His kicking is a total embarrassment.
The best paid keeper in world football passes straight to the opposition on a consistent basis. This is a major problem, and anybody saying it's not is absolutely insane.
Good saves, distribution a problem yet again. So much so De Gea.
Made some great saves, but usual flaws are still having an impact. Also, he had his hands behind his back at the moment Mahrez struck to score the 4th. Bizarre positioning and body shape.
Said it before but he invites pressure on to us and then gets the plaudits when he makes saves due to said pressure.
One of many big decisions that has been passed on to the next manager to deal with than be dealt with by Ralf.

Some good saves but we need a new keeper
Strangely not even the first position we need to improve
Probably not even top five and yet we still need a new one

He makes so many saves because he keeps giving the ball to the opposition.
I think we should get rid . Too many players not good enough to execute modern football

I’m his biggest fan generally and he made a couple of important saves today but seeing that performance v what Ederson offered, was alarming.
He's going to have to be replaced very soon anyway as his reflexes, agility will soon decline and that's the only thing he's got going for him. But the club will put off and ignore it for as long as possible like always.
Apology number one …..
That whole thing was bizarre. He seemed to somehow injure himself kicking the ball (straight to a City player) and flopped to the ground, only to immediate recover and go on to make that - not very good - attempt at a save.
What kind of injury do you get from kicking a ball that you recover from that quickly?
Also that obligatory “ball kicked many yards past our defensive line with opposition striker charging towards it and NO FECKING SIGN OF OUR GOALKEEPER until the ball arrived at the box” moment.
Were a bit of a disaster in every single area of the pitch. There needs to be a plan as to which order we fix them because they all need to change. Renewing should be out of the question.
I just wish he was not this mild mannered considering the many donkeys he had in the back 4 in front of him over the years. There are times, like today, when I wish he did an Oliver Kahn on Maguire. We can ask Andreas Herzog how he feels when his teammate Kahn gave him a loud bollocking, grabbed him and ragdolled him. Some centre-backs are so stupid that they need to taste that once.
DDG is such a wuss still. The first time I’ve seen him off his line in years and it was nearly a disaster.
His kicking compared to Ederson’s was shocking. We need to move on from him, the sooner the better.
Utter shite as usual for 3 of the 4 goals. Blokes a fecking joke, shouldn't be near the team.
Yesterday should finally be enough for people to realise that making the odd camera save just isn't enough.
He needs to be replaced.

I love him for his time here and he is a legend of this club -
But I do have this sneaky little feeling in my gut that the day when De Gea is replaced by a number 1 keeper will see us improve a level we didn't expect to do.

Some of his double saves wouldnt need to be double saves if he could do what VDS / Big Pete could do and push it wider rather than back into six yard box.
Maybe being harsh.
But yes, he needs replacing (one of the many positions)

He's the 1st one who needs replacing, not because he's our biggest problem but to signal a clear intent that we're moving on from this shitty brand of football. It will give a warning by the new manager that no one can coast by on previous performances or level.
Agreed.
Also we should just be rid of him so we can stop seeing him tweet about how "we're all hurting so sowwy" after a loss. But the club loves that kind of PR bullshit so...
You can't just be a world-class shot-stopper in a team aspiring for major trophies. Well, you can get away with it to a certain extent but not when the other aspects of your game are bottom of the league tier.
We should be trying to upgrade him this summer. Give Henderson a string of games and if he's not good enough either, sell him and then sign a modern goalkeeper this summer.
He'll probably get renewed instead for 400k around late this year instead.
Someone on match day said he had covid. Is this true?
False positive. False hope for Henderson
There were initial reports that he had tested positive for COVID, then reports that it was believed to be a false positive.
If the club renews his contract, his salary should be halved at the very least. Simply an average goalkeeper these days.
Just seen him walking in the stadium he looks fine.
He’s been our motm more times than anyone else this season.
People set their agendas 2-3 years ago and they aren't budging.
Standard.
Unlike alot of agendas on this place, the de gea ones are actually backed up with stats. Worst GK in the league at every goalkeeping statistic other than shot stopping. Basically a very limited goalkeeper.
I was looking forward to him not being in the starting line up today, I'm now dissapointed, wonder how long it will be before I'm cursing him for rubbish distribution, or staying firmly on his line or forcing his defenders to deal with balls he should deal with.
Man Utd 3:2 Tottenham
We have been horrible this season and there is more to goalkeeping than making saves he invites himself by his other sub-par attributes.
Was fine today though.
