    Some nonsense being spouted here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,136 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Really obvious the people who criticised De Gea when he came to United and have been slowly burned having to watch him being the best in the world for 6/7 seasons.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,335 ✭✭✭✭citytillidie


    De Gea, Young, Shaw, Jones, Lindelof, Matic, McTominay, Pogba, Sanchez, Mata, Rashford.

    What's the definition of madness again?

    It’s Huddersfield you would get a bunch of U18s to best them they are so down beat at the moment

    Have all the respect in the world for De Gea and I still rate him as among the best. It's uncomfortable watching someone who essentially carried his team for large periods struggle so much.

    This is such tinfoil hat stuff.

    He was dodgy the first season (or thereabouts) in patches, mostly great since until this season when he has been very poor lots of times. Is this not something that people can talk about?

    1-0 United. Huddersfield's keeper Lossl in the doghouse this time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,566 ✭✭✭✭yabadabado


    Lou Grant.

    :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Hearing Kante went off injured. Would be a big blow if that's the end of his season.

    Lou Grant would have saved it......................

    Sanchez looking really good here. Either playing for a new club or he's found his level against Huddersfield.

    Heard a stat on football daily that Allison has lost the same amount of points as de gea through Stoopid mistakes. Interesting if true, media skew your perception so much


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,050 ✭✭✭✭The Talking Bread

    Maybe the fact he has finally been given an opportunity to start a game may help. I could be wrong but not sure Utd have lost a game with him starting alls eason? Sticking him on occasionaly towards the end of games against inferior teams like City, Barca, PSG, it is hardly fair to judge the guy on that and the few other times he had some minutes.
    I think he has been treated really badly tbh despite the wages. The Juve performance is an example of how good he can be if some faith was shown in him and he is started.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    De Gea with a crucial save to keep it at 1-0.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,808 ✭✭✭mightyreds

    I don't think Allison has lost any through mistakes


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,287 ✭✭✭The White Wolf


    Saw others saying it before but after catching a look of Ole there, he's not looking all that fresh faced anymore.

    Care to back up that with some facts? 3 of Liverpool’s 7 draws were 0-0, the other 4 were 1-1, 2 of which included class goals byHazard & Lacazette, but carry on with your fantasies.

    Not denying it but I'd be quite surprised if that was true.

    Decent competitive game and Huddersfield have really grown into it. Been impressed by Pritchard and wouldn’t be surprised if he’s back in the Premier League next season.

    Sanchez was decent while United were on top but has faded, while Phil Jones continues to be a walking disaster area. Lindelof has been good as has his reading of the game – he’s cut out a couple of Huddersfield chances before they’ve had the chance to develop.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,566 ✭✭✭✭yabadabado

    Jaysus ,even for this place that's a pathetic post.

    Why not just link the source?

    Errors leading to goals this season so far.


    Tied 1st Begovic & Leno with 5

    Tied 3rd DeGea & Pickford with 4


    Tied 5th Alisson , Bamba & Dubravka with 3

    Unless de dea has caused 0 dropped points (which unit the case) it is made up. Alisson has cost Liverpool goals in games but not in games they have dropped points in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Gary Neville sounds like someone **** in his cornflakes. United are hanging on here.

    Has Gary Neville ever said anything bad about the owners and how they run the club?


    He always seem to blame Ed for everything not the ones Ed answers too.

    Football daily, YouTube channel. Sunday vibes, should de gea be dropped think is the vid name


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Neville will never say a peep against OGS. None of the United pundits will as almost all of them are his former teammates.

    OGS could select the dinner lady in midfield and rather than criticize him for it they'd give out that she didn't track back enough.

    Chong's haircut is a firm decision.

    So does that mean we can exclude the Barca mistake from this "list" of De Gea mistakes that people keep bringing up as it was in the CL because Liverpool lost to Red Star when Allison had a shocking mistake?

    Huddersfield goal. Embarrassing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Oh dear Shaw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,014 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Huddersfield get the goal.

    Bad feet from De Gea but that's not on him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,620 ✭✭✭eigrod


    Luke Shaw, dear me

    How many Premier league points has Alisson cost Liverpool in the champions league?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Luke Shaw doing his audition for the Ministry of Funny Walks. Fecking awful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,349 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Someone should go around to check on Gary Neville.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,014 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    This stoppage is killing any momentum Huddersfield might have built up with that goal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,257 ✭✭✭Augme


    Could really do with a United win here. Last thing I want to see ole get sacked.

    He can’t, or won’t provide the evidence. Expects those of us who question it to go find out. Classic.

    How's that now? Not having a dig at him just making an observation. Same thing happened to Moyes at United, Rafa at Liverpool and Mourinho across various clubs; stress of the big jobs can take a toll on managers physically. I don't take any delight in that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I was slated in the United thread a few days ago for saying Shaw being out was almost a win these days. Was told he was "steadily improving".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,306 ✭✭✭✭Drumpot


    This united bunch of players couldn’t do much more to vindicate Jose Mourinho if they tried.... He was spot on about this squad and after a small blip in January they have reverted to the level they are at. 2nd was a miracle last season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,382 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic

    He's just another who eventually regressed to the mean.

    The standard of player just isn't good enough.

    I'm thinking the three errors are City, Everton and Chelsea.

    Not to bad for the amount of seasons he's played.

    Edit: this was meant to be a reply to Talking Bread.

    We're going down but you're fcuking sh1t lol great chant from the Huddersfield fans.

    Shaw is poor.

    Neville is fuming on commentary.

    Maybe Man Utd fans will concentrate now their own club now rather than Liverpool's challenge.

    How are these errors judged? If DDG throws the ball to a CB and CB loses possession because it's bad pass is it a DDG error? Or defender?
