I have always liked him, but unfortunately football waits for no one. He is not signing a contract and his form has been poor. His other weak areas are showing no signs of improvement either. There will be a decision to make. If we improve our CB position, then maybe moving him on won't be too bad. Get some money for him, and find a replacement.
De Gea contract talk | Signs new deal

I'd try and rinse a club for him for a sale.
He's declined this season and other facets of his game still remain a weakness.

Sold, shot, I'm easy.
I’m really not bothered anymore.
£50m I’d fine.

A lot of overreaction in this thread as expected.
He’s had a bad year. It’s not just tonight.
When are we allowed to complain then? He hasn’t exactly been great this season has he?
For Spain, in Spain and against Spanish teams, De Gea is...different.
What makes me laugh about some of you, can you please tell me who can we get who is better?
Oblak I hear you say? So if we offer £100m to Atletico will they just accept it and sell him to us, will he even want to join our disaster of a club? I can’t see it personally.
He’s been in poor form but still pulls off some worldy saves. I wish he would work on his distribution but all goalkeepers have flaws. That’s his.

No longer among the best goalies in the world. Poor season. Sell.
If previously I thought give him whatever he wants, tonight gives another picture. Give him a deal on terms we set and he can leave if he doesn’t feel it’s enough. He cost us lately. Arsenal both games and this are inexcusable.
I will readily do a swap deal with psg if they give us Marquinhos and Meunier in exchange.
Hopefully he signs that new deal and gets back to being exceptional again.
Is he a write off after one bad season?. He’s saved us and been are best player for years and suddenly he’s not good enough. Even seen people wanting to replace him with Romero next season a guy who couldn’t even make the grade at Sampdoria. People will be begging for De Gea to come back once they see what Romero is capable of week in week out.
Did a great save against West Ham.
I don't think he's worth paying huge sums of money though. Poor kicking/distribution but I don't see him hanging around anyway. Might as well try his luck elsewhere as we're not capable of putting a good team together in front of him, been six years of mismanagement and the same shite is still going on under Ole with Young. When will it stop?

Complain all you like. Dont start yelling "he's finished" and "sell the cnut" like some did.
Lets spend 100m on Oblak, so we have 100m less to spend on positions we actually desperately need to improve.
He's been declining for 2 seasons bar a few games. I thank him as well for the saves, but shot-stopping is a very reflex reliant skill and bound to decrease with age. He is bad at distribution, kicking, coming out for the ball and rarely saves a pen. He isn't a 300K or even a 200K a week GK.
But if we have to purchase 6 outfield players, I don't mind him hanging around for one more season. Just need to ensure we don't cave into his ridiculous demands, he has no leverage over us.
He is still a top goalkeeper as one would like to believe..but I think we should go for Rui Patricio a guy I've always doubted. Bringing in Rui will push DDG or lose his place if Rui shows more.
We cant be waiting for DDG to pack ip and leave before we start working on our squad, leading to desperation and teams will bleed us dry.

He's not helping himself in satisfying negotiations, in CL whole Europe and rest of the world is watching.
I love de gea but when people say he's better than big Pete or van der sar I do laugh, he's top 3 behind those two.
Such a revisionist look at him this is ridiculous. Sure his last few months have been poor but this is just nonsense.
He’s had a bad season, no doubt, but who’s had a good season? Anyway, one bad year shouldnt be enough to wipe from memory the good he’s done during his time here. It’s not like he’s Lingard stealing a living.
If you ask me the guy has obviously checked out, his mind hasn't been on the task in hand all season, barring his freaky game against spurs away, his form has been so poor, he has definitely cost us in the cup v wolves and we got lucky against PSG he didnt play well in either game.
Unfortunately he only has a year left so we are in a crap position to get top dollar for him, maybe get him to sign an extension of 2 years, whilst having an agreement with him and his agent ,that should a top club come in for him in the summer we wont stand in his way, like we did with Ronaldo, the worrying thing is, his form has been that shoddy would we get top dollar anymore.
The crux of the matter is and I think if we are to be honest with ourselves, the fact is he doesnt want to be here no more. Thays the long and short of it.

Drop him till he sorts his shite out. If he wants to leave, feck him off. Shouldn't play again for the rest of the season. Ole needs to grow up a pair and drop him.
Your entire post became redundant with your comment about Lingard who last season scored a ton of goals and a few years back got the winning goal in an FA Cup final
Seriously Ole should drop him, he has been shit for a while now and Romero has made some good performances.
No one should be able to start continuously while playing at such a low level.

Lingards been shit for years. The fact he had a good patch means feck all. DDG is having a bad patch, its obviously not the same thing. Its even more not the same thing when you consider that DDG is having "moments" during games were he drops. Lingard doesnt even have moments of being anything other than a show off twat with no skill or class to back it up.
Sell any of your world class players at your peril (unless you know they’re not world class anymore). How about a more solid defence around him?
What's obviously not the same thing is comparing a goalkeeper to an outfield player, everything De Gea does good or bad is moments but we digress my point was your post would have held a lot more merit had you obmitted the childish comment about Lingard
What the feck is going on? You want to drop him after one mistake? If that's the yardstick then the whole team needs dropping.
I know he's not been playing near his world class level of late, but he's comfortably twice as good as any other option we have.

Except it wasnt childish, it was factual. Hes shit. Hes stealing a living. And no amount of bullshit excuses are gonna gloss over that fact. Let me say again, hes been shit for years. This isnt a recent event. Hes not lost form, this is what he is, dog shit. DDG is having a few bad moments for less than a year. lingard a few good moments for a couple of months since he got his start. Outfield, infield, left field, cloverfield, it doesnt matter. Lingard is shit, DDG is having moments of being poor. Not the same by any stretch.
Nope nothing childish there at all swear swear swear
Oh and your opinion that Lingard is shit is just that it's an opinion it's not a fact
Well said.
No, its a fact. Back up by hours and hours and hours of video. But hey, you go ahead and play that little highlight real of his purple patch. And Ill just remember him tonight, shitting himself to make a fecking run and forcing martial to pass backwards.
Having a bad patch and asking for 400k/w. Hmm, it doesn't seems right.
Tea lady deserves wage raise more than any one at the club.

Best in the world for 4-5 years, going through a rough patch now means none of the previous years happened and we just imagined it and hes not very good actually 
Fecking have some faith and patience, he'll be fine.

I'd suggest what you do with the rest of your evening is to learn the difference between and opinion and a fact
Night night
Id suggest you do the same. Toodles.
He's not been the same this season. He needs to get back to his best before he expects a big pay increase at the club. There's no point in increasing wages based on previous glories.
