A loan to a club that suits his playing style would be good.. he needs first team minutes.
Reminds of Peter Cech in his stature, obviously needs a lot of work to be as good but his distribution with his feet was excellent
Just playing devil's advocate a bit, Leeds were not exactly pressing with all their might. Some of those passes were closer than i'd like.
Feel like that exact pass at 0:15 is the one DDG made to Maguire in one of our big games recently. Maguire lost the ball resulting in a goal and DDG got crucified for that.
Was it Pool? Arsenal? Can't remember.
Bang on. A lot of people still supporting De Gea ignore the part that a fair few of his wonder saves were because of his reluctance to do the exact things you've said which puts him in a position where he has to rely on his reflexes.He didnt have much to do in terms of saves, but he also cut out chances before they could become chances, like the claim from the corner, the edge of the box stuff sweeping it up, or diving out to collect James attempted cross. These are things which can nullify an attack for the opposition and make the opposition play differently or hesitate, which is something that opposition wouldnt hesitate to do vs us with DDG in goal.
Too much of a risk but I would be interested to see it.... will be interesting to see how he performs for the rest of the pre-season, it does feel like one of those situations that we may regret either which wayHis few highlights show that the back 4 must enjoy a keeper who is comfortable on the ball. I get annoyed that DDG only had players like Dubravka, Grant, Heaton etc. as backup when clearly they would not succeed him. Kovar may be ready NOW and would save us £50M but we don't know as he wasn't given chances.

This didnt age good.Maybe we should keep him and use the Onana money fro something else
I have not seen a lot of him but going by the game against Leeds he seems comfortable with the ball at his feet so I would presume he could be our no.2 and be training with the first team squad next season.
As usual there will be calls for him to go on loan as nothing beats competitive football but if that is the case I struggle to understand why we would be linked with a GK that is younger to be backup to our first choice as surely the same would apply.
We will see what happens I suppose because it looks like Erik plays his main GK in virtually every game anyway so the backup keeper will only play when the first choice is injured.
There is no point in keeping him here. Sell if a good offer coming in, preferably with a nice sell on percentage. Or loan with a view to increase his value further.
Onana if it works out, will be here for a long time. Suzuki if we sign him will be second, and Heaton is third. Kovar needs to play.
As we should, we have more than enough options so there is no need to keep him any longer.Heaton will leave as soon as we sign our no.1 and no.2 goalkeepers I'm sure. He's been professional since he's been here and is one of our own - if Luton want him as no.1 then we'll let him go.
Reckon he’ll stay as a coach or just be no3. Probably on comparatively low wages and very experienced, seems to be a good egg as well.Heaton will leave as soon as we sign our no.1 and no.2 goalkeepers I'm sure.

I take your point but it seems like our no.2 will need to be a player in his early to mid 30s that will be content with only really getting a game when our first choice is injured.Well if you were coming over from Urawa Reds, already with some first team exposure, I think it would be perfectly reasonable that you spend a year getting used to the club, coaching staff, style of football etc while the manager has a look at you. He wouldn't have had the opportunity to train with somebody of the quality and experience of Onana before you would imagine, nor even Tom Heaton in fairness if he were still here.
Kovar on the other hand has been at the club for years, knows the demands, trained with the big names, and now needs to polish his game by playing. It's not as simple as what age they are, the context is important.
Heaton?But he wants to play.
De Gea's ball was slower and bouncing, to the extent that by the time it reached Maguire there were three opposition players all closer to him than any of the opposition players were to Bennett in this video. The only similarity was that in both scenarios the ball was played slightly behind where the recipient was moving to.Feel like that exact pass at 0:15 is the one DDG made to Maguire in one of our big games recently. Maguire lost the ball resulting in a goal and DDG got crucified for that.

Heaton?

It will be hard to find one with quality but if the first choice gets a big injury then we will need one.
He’ll be gone as soon as we sign SuzukiHeaton?
I’m afraid there won’t be too many dead rubber in the CL.He played 30 times for Prague last season.
He needs United game time, IMO.
Admittedly, it’s a bit of an unknown amount of games but potentially all league cup games and early rounds of the FA Cup plus any dead rubbers in the CL if we qualify early enough
Hadn't seen that rumour but seems odd given he came here and basically hasn't played (and would have known that on signing). Maybe he was only open to PL teams and Luton don't have much moneyYeah, rumor is that he really wanted to go to Luton. I guess it's his last chance to play at a high level so understandably.
