David De Gea
David De Gea’s departure from Manchester United is difficult to gauge. While he has made several costly errors over the past few years, it is never easy to say goodbye to a club legend – especially on a free transfer.
De Gea’s distribution, technical ability and passing have been frequently called into question recently – these are all attributes that a modern goalkeeper needs and De Gea does not excel in any of them.
However, when criticising De gea for his weaknesses, it is easy to forget his strengths. He is one of the best shot-stoppers the Premier League has ever seen, boasting outstanding reflexes.
