The former Atletico Madrid goalkeeper has been an ordinary shadow of himself since the beginning of the term, having already conceded a whopping 29 goals in 17 Premier League appearances for the Manchester outfit so far as well as letting in 4 goals in the UEFA Champions League, to sum up, how miserable his performances have been.
There is no denying De Gea belongs among the most talented guardians in Europe at the moment, but he needs to work really hard and improve his performances at goal to preserve his reputation and also help Manchester United in the revival mission this season.

Jidonu’s tryst with football started after watching the 2002 FIFA World Cup final between Brazil and Germany, being mesmerized by Ronaldo and Ronaldinho. Barcelona philosophy and approach towards the game under Pep Guardiola further fueled the burgeoning love for the sport, and he has been a Culer ever since.
Unsurprisingly, Lionel Messi is his favorite player and is the one true GOAT for him over Cristiano Ronaldo. The 2022 FIFA World Cup final, where Messi's brace led to La Albiceleste lifting the cup left a lasting impact on him. His love for Messi also sees him follow Major League Soccer apart from Europe’s top five leagues.
