4. De Gea is among the best if not the best

The best keeper in the world?
The best keeper in the world?

Against Juventus, David De Gea is the reason why only one goal was on the score sheet. He was able to put a world class performance to deny the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo. United have conceded 16 goals in 9 Premier League games and 1 goal in 3 Champions League games.

They are no ordinary team and conceding so many goals over seemingly fewer games points out to a defense and goalkeeping issue. It would be unfair to put the blame on De Gea if anything the Spaniard should be credited with producing some of the best goalkeeping performances across Europe. A closer look at United’s matches show that De Gea is the reason why United haven’t conceded more goals.
