There are plenty of better keepers around than De Gea.
I don't watch Utd every week so I cannot comment on whether his recent purple patch was the norm. Congratulations, you've knocked gnp off his perch.

Mignolet better then De Gea  .... De gea is one of the candidates to win player of the year. He has saved Utd time and time again. Crazy comments! We have different opinions on Utd's keeper. I'm fine with that. The stats are on my side though... 12 clean sheets in 29 games compared to De Gea's 10 in 32. Make of that what you will.... There are plenty of better keepers around than De Gea. The media love Utd though and will make a song and dance when someone is in good form. I don't watch Utd every week so I cannot comment on whether his recent purple patch was the norm. I have friends who are Utd fans and they like him, but they say he's no van der sar or schmeichel. And they wouldn't be too fussed if he left in the summer. United has conceded 30 goals and we have conceded 36, this is also a stat but which says De Gea is better, no? Like I said, sometimes the only info I can use is statistical. The way that some people on here drool over De Gea, you would think that they watch every game that he plays in. How else could they be so certain of his superiority? After all, the stats which show has the 7th best record in the EPL for clean sheets are apparently 'misleading'...

From what I have seen, De Gea is much better than Mignolet, but as you have hardly watched United, you just don't know

Would it be fair to say that you only have seen highlights of when he's had a good game though? When he's been ordinary or poor you won't know about it unless you were a Utd fan.

Man Utd are on television enough for most to have a view on their players and performance. De Gea has produced MOM performances on numerous times this season, against us at Old Trafford and against Arsenal at the Emirates are the most obvious. I also thought he was very impressive in both Manchester derbies. I'm a Mignolet fan but if your comparing the two then there is only one winner for me.

You seriously think Mignolet is a better keeper than DeGea?
Better attackers, we have the Glass Man, Mario, Borini and Lambert.
13 goals in all competitons this year.
Rooney, Van Persie, Falcao and Di Maria have 32 goals between them.
We have more young players that doesn't mean they are good.
Only Rooney is any good from the ones you have listed, and he's over rated. I was thinking more along the lines of chance creators as well as finishers. Sterling, Coutinho, Ibe are a hell of a lot better than Di maria/januzaj, Young and Mata sorry mate but your last couple of posts are up there with the stupidest I have ever read on a football forum Migs better than De Gea christ!!! I hope no utd fans are reading this as they will wet themselves

Don't be so naive.
They can afford the wages of a decorated manager and a squad full of superstars because of the last 25 years of winning stuff basically every year. CL money every year etc etc etc. It took them a year or so to get going and yes, now they are reaping the rewards of buying ready-made stars, but that's what you get when your revenue exceeds £360m, [b]more than £150m more than us/b]
Their match day revenue is 6 times ours, they receive 3 times as much in broadcasting, 4 times as much in commercial and 4 times as much in branding.
THAT is why they can afford to buy better than us.
We are not a wealthy club, but if you keep an eye on the news, you will see our terrible, stingy, good-for-nothing owners have been working hard over the last few years to narrow the gap. Sponsorship/ partnerships with Dunkin Donuts, Subway, Nivea, Garuda International, Standard Chartered have all been made since FSG came in, they are clearly trying to make LFC more profitable, but we will still be way off UTD.
Anyone with a shred of common sense would see that we are not the same club financially as UTD (you need A LOT of money if you want a team full of good players) and probably never will be.
Get the F over it. Good post. But people don't like cold hard facts
