I love David De Gea to the core. He is the only player along with Rooney who deserve all the praise after Fergie retired.

A thread on what has happened

Dave needs to retrospect his performances. He has particularly been caught off guard by powerful Near post shots.
In no way do I think that, he is past his prime, but he hasn't been the same since Emilio left the club.

Emilio Alvarez was very close to Dave and is an exceptionally talented coach.

After he left, it has been difficult for Dave. Emilio had played an imp role in Dave's growth.
Also with Ole, we have started to play out from the back. Although, that has never been Dave's biggest attributes, but he has been fairly good in that as well.
But somewhere that has dented his reflexes which initially made him the best in the world.
And as rightly pointed out by Eric Steele, earlier this year, Dave needs competition in order to get the best out of him.

Sergio & Grant are not on his level and don't provide enough competition to him

We definitely need Henderson next season to compete for the no. 1 position.
Regardless, David De Gea is still one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

▪️ Not a single GK is a better shot stopper than him.
▪️ His ability to adapt has been phenomenal with numerous managerial changes at United.
▪️ He has been the victim of his own brilliance.
Dave needs more confidence and competition to get back to his superb best.

He has worked hard to reach this level with his commitment and desire.

I believe that he will be back to his best.

Lastly,

I love you @D_DeGea and I will never stop supporting you. ❤️
