The Spaniard is probably having his worst season in United colours, but there is no denying his qualities. Most of the blame for his present situation has to fall upon Manchester United's faulty defence. However, if there was any goalkeeper you would rather have to defend the goal behind such a leaky defence, few people would look past the mercurial Spaniard.

De Gea has already conceded 26 goals in the league, but some of his saves this season have still been World Class. In fact, the Red Devils would have been in further mess had it not been for the Spaniard. Granted, his slip against Arsenal was uncharacteristic, but United's prolonged sorry run has dented De Gea's confidence and has also affected his concentration. Perhaps a deserved rest ahead of the visit to Anfield will be the perfect way for him to regenerate his senses and calm his nerves.

Against Liverpool, Manchester United will most certainly concede again. However, one can be certain that De Gea will be inspired and raring to show Alisson who the real boss of the Premier League is. The Spaniard will be key to Manchester United getting points from Anfield.
