#1 De Gea
De Gea is probably the most outstanding player at the club right now. His goalkeeping performances in the last couple of seasons have saved Manchester United from humiliating defeats and have also helped them win narrowly in crucial encounters.
With the shaky and vulnerable defence that they have, De Gea is their best bet to ward off strong teams from scoring a lot of goals. Despite almost leaving Old Trafford a couple of seasons ago, De Gea has been extremely professional and given his all for the team.
Hence, he rightfully deserves a substantial pay rise in the new contract for his wonderful service to the club. With elite clubs like PSG looking to sign De Gea for free next season, Ed Woodward needs to buck up and negotiate good terms with the star player in order to persuade him to extend his stay at the club.
The loss of De Gea might prove quite devastating for the fans as well as the club if the board doesn't act soon.
