Hafi, are you still making money from your gaming?

Nope Boris. The thing with understat is it doesn’t take into account shots on target or offside chances. Many of our XG against wouldn’t have counted or missed the target so basically would have been like 30 in reality.

Like XG in last 3 league games for shots on target was just over 1 yet we conceded 4 goals. If you take away penalties I think we have by far the best record of XG against for shots on target at 0.42 but 3 goals conceded. So De Gea is facing an XG of 0.14 XG shots on target per game and conceding in each game. Just to put into perspective shots from like 18 yards on target is usually an XG higher than that lol. Man Utd had more shots on target than the opposition in 8 of our last 9 games we failed to win. If we swapped De Gea for opposition keeper we would have won 8 of those games by a big score.

Spurs look to have top 4.
Man Utd seem to be like 19/20 season when Ole had us similar expected points to Liverpool but near the relegation zone. Concede more than expected and score less than expected meaning manager looks clueless.

Basically if we played against De Gea we would win nearly every game. Even they did a video before the game against Everton our finishing against De Gea I believe and we were passing it past De Gea so easily.

Striker and a proper keeper ARE the top priorities. Has been for near on a decade. Regardless of stats. The evidence is all on the pitch.

De Gea's post shot xG numbers (which factor out shots off target) are the best in the league

Boris Mahrez been watching Fernandes or Ronaldo at the end? How to miss when in on goal. I suppose at least Fernandes hits the target lol. Damn Liverpool so lucky, cut open and somehow got away with it.

Also look at Allison, he was straight out. De Gea would have been 10 yards further back and deciding then whether he should be coming out or not lol. Even in our 0-5 defeat De Gea stayed on his line while Allison smothered like 2 one on ones by charging out.

The worst part is that even ddg who’s apparently poor is keeping dean Henderson out- who must be diabolically shiiit.

Had, don’t take any notice of the users who have a go at you.

Your musings are interesting, because even though you have a clear bias it’s completely backed up by the stats, and I’d rather read 3 consecutive pages of your comments than most of the guff that gets posted on here.

Personally I think De Gea has been finished for at least three years.

Well Henderson had best record in 19/20 and 20/21 premierleague season. Romero had best european record all dropped for De Gea who conceded 2 goals from 3 shots on target against Sevilla and 1 shot on target straight at him in 120 minutes against Villareal and then 11 consecutive penalties he concedes a few which were terrible but as De Gea is motionless easy passes right near him go in and then he has penalty weak saved with poor body language. He even ignored an instruction saying where someone was going to put it, one of the worst penalties of the shootout.

Honestly sort of reminds me of Navas vd Donnarumma
Situation. Navas one of the best in the world along with Henderson dropped for big name rather than goalkeeper ability. Also many of the shots we concede is due to De Gea poor play so if had a decent keeper like we did with Romero and Henderson we keep clean sheets for fun.

Add Romero as well. I finished Gear.Club Stradale and am 3rd. I think top 2 are using a controller as I know 2nd is and it is supposedly much faster with it.

Navas has been very unlucky having to compete with Casillas and Donnarumma.

Well De Gea saved a crucial shot early on and reverted to type for the 2nd goal as in being in no mans land and not closing the attacker down.

Averaging like 2 saves per game for weeks now.

Man Utd had more shots on target than the opposition in 14 of last 15 games now. Insane run when you think of it. Man City for example had less than the opposition shots on target in there last 2 games.

Well he saved 1 shot and conceded 4 today. 1.24XG for Liverpool shots on target. I think based on XG shots on target since Rangnick got the job De Gea conceded 20 goals more than expected.

I honestly think De Gea is our worst goalkeeper. I would actually prefer to play Maguire in goal. He at least would show more presence in goal. I never seen a goalkeeper so bad at crosses and one on ones before. Every other goalkeeper when opposition in on goal they charge out and make themselves big. De Gea when facing one on one thinks shall I move forward, he then makes himself as small as possible and says to the forward score then.
