    But it isn't. You cited a specific group of people, Neuer's teammates coaches and opponents, having quotes about Neuer specifically in which they specifically refer to his aura. I just asked you to provide SOME, not all, of these quotes.

    If it's universally accepted that the very best keepers have an aura, then why are you using this ridiculous argument as a reason why Neuer is superior to De gea? De Gea is one of the very best keepers in the world, therefore he has an aura too. Just like Neuer.

    Right I'm going to find quotes to back up the most basic football argument because I'm that bloody good and because apparently some people on Boards need things spelled out in spaghetti alphabet shapes for them.

    Do you seriously think De Gea has the same aura and presence as Neuer? Honestly I don't understand why I'm even debating this with someone who quite clearly doesn't watch Neuer each week, how can you possibly debate something you don't know about?

    How can you measure "aura" and "presence"? Do you think Neuer has been worth the same number of points to Bayern this season as De Gea has to United?

    Was there a game earlier?

    Do you think Neuer has been worth the same number as points as Butland? Stats would suggest no. So, do you think Butland is a better keeper than Neuer, why? Why not?

    There should be an attribute for 'aura' in fifa.

    Aura, bloody aura:

    http://www.sport.net/neuers-aura-of-invincibility-vital-to-bayerns-cause_281011

    "Loew pointed out - "exudes an unbelievable aura". - https://uk.sports.yahoo.com/blogs/pitchside-europe/manuel-neuer-not-quite-best-keeper-world-072229752.html

    Oliver Kahn- "I think Neuer changed the game of goalkeeping in the World Cup."

    Mark Schwarzer- "Manuel Neuer is a better goalkeeper than David De Gea by a mile."

    Anyway short of busting out my Das Reboot book this is as good as it is gonna get via a quick google search before the Chelsea game. Anybody doubting the presence and aura of Neuer must be mad.

    I've long been a proponent of having a monthly hand-holding session, where the soccer forum comes together once a month and holds hands for a predetermined amount of time. It could do wonders to easing hostilities and tensions between Boards members.

    Who fupping cares who is better than who? They are both good enough to be in the top teams and any team in the world would have them.

    Anything you say has little credentials to your great knowledge, which I am sure you have as your bias is as easy to see as the hair on your head.

    Anyone posting about it obviously. You included, considering you didn't just ignore it and move on.

    Lets not pretend the United fans are bastions of impartiality here :pac:

    I only seen the first half hour but your "completely outplayed" differs to everybody else's. This I've noticed in Liverpool match threads when they don't win.

    I saw almost the whole game (tuned in at 5 minutes to see United 1-0 down) and United weren't completely outplayed by Sunderland. That said, you wouldn't go and call Sunderland undeserved winners and they could have had 1 or 2 more if not for Dave Saves.

    Doesn't matter that we weren't completely outplayed, we were matched and beaten by fúcking Sunderland. Niallo is more than likely looking to keep the party going in here, and why wouldn't he. I'd be pissing my sides laughing at us too.

    This thread, just like man utd's top 4 chances has gone right down the Khazri.

    This match thread is a perfect example of why i just don't bother venturing into the La Liga thread anymore.

    Don't forget parallel universes!

    De Gea is wasted at Utd tbh.

    He probably needs to move on
