Fergie Time

[Dedworth]

Well done Totnum good to see the red nosed git get a dose of his own medicine - shame it wasn't 5 minutes Spurs would have won

I hope the FA ban him for his ongoing disgraceful slurs on the officials

[joebloggs]

:icon_lol: dedworth your so jealous of Fergie and his success :biggrin:, how long has he been manager of united now :Erm:, Chelsea have had soooo many managers it must be one record chelsea does have :icon_lol:, have any had the job longer than a yr :biggrin:

We should have had a clear penalty too:xxgrinning--00xx3:
To be honest a draw was fair result and I'm happy with that and they hold the honour of the only decent team to beat us in the league this season:biggrin:

[stevie c]

In all fairness les man u were very lucky to come away with a draw 15 to 4 shots on target for spurs & something like 85% to 15% possession to spurs second half was all one way traffic it it weren't for de gea it would if been a spurs win

You can't really say that as I would counter and say if it wasn't for the disallowed penalty we would probably have gone on to win,good to see De-Gea in a better light-the lads coming on:xxgrinning--00xx3:

De Gea had a good game huh? It's about time :icon_lol:

[stevie c]

I don't think de gea stay at Utd will be for long

[stevie c]

Utd go through keepers like Chelsea go through managers

[les_taxi]

Utd go through keepers like Chelsea go through managers

We don't really when you think of it for 14 years we had Peter Schmeichel and Edwin van der Sar!
In finding your best keeper you go through a few contenders but De GEa is young and improving all the time-most keeps peak about 28 onwards
I'm happy with him:xxgrinning--00xx3:

[stevie c]

I'm glad that your happy with him les but I'm not sure fergie trusts him
I would have a wager he will be transferred in under a year

[les_taxi]

From last season
. De Gea finished the season with the best saves-to-shots ratio in the Premier League (77.9%).

[stevie c]

He may well of done les but I bet he came last in catching crosses & corners....he was at fault for the spurs goal when it comes to crosses he is a liability he always punches instead of catching to me that tells me he has no confidence in coming for crosses

[les_taxi]

Yes his command of the box is not great but he is a shot stopper sometimes you can't be both.
He needs to put some weight on and remember he is only 22 playing for the biggest club in the premiership I really do think he will mature and become a great keeper

[stevie c]

Time will tell les if he is given that time at Man U we will wait & see

Les if he wants to be classed as word class he needs to be a great all round keeper not just a shot stopper ie schmiechael Clemence, Jennings, Shilton were all great round keepers you cannot be in the same class being a one trick pony

[Ako Si Jamie]

Heard a rumour not so long back that Begovic of Stoke will replace De Gea.

Steve I'm not sure who said he can be world class-I didn't all I'm saying is he is getting better,fewer mistakes and he has many years in front of him to improve

[stevie c]

Point taken les but I was pointing out that just being a shotstopper will not be enough for fergie & I can't honestly see him being given the time to turn in to a great keeper at utd

There is talk that ferguson wants to sign pepe reina

[les_taxi]

pepe reina good keeper I must admit-let's see if united win Title that may go some way to making his mind up-I would have thought Ferguson was happy now than in the early days with De Gea.
I thought he was poor at first but he is certainly improving and may never be world class but may be good enough.
Very few world class keepers have played for united only schmiechael achived that honour of being best keeper in the world when he was with us.
