By being in Man Utd the last few years he is a bit lacking in playing big domestic and champions league games, he also didnt really prove himself in the world cup.

Likes a dive for the cameras . Good relexes and that's about it. Nowhere near the best keeper in the world. No keeper has conceeded as many goals in Manchester derby history as DDG. That maybe because City have good players that don't just fire it straight at him. Seems other players have now cottoned on to this. Can somebody explain to me what bearing the above has on anything?

The season Wrexham were in the same league as Man City we had a pretty medicore keeper who played the game of his life at Maine Road and got a 0-0 draw. Going by the goals conceded against City stat I think that makes him the joint best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank God for financial doping. 57 minutes ago, Hugh Jass said: Can somebody explain to me what bearing the above has on anything? Because that's the only time I have seen him live. He's been atrocious when he has played against us. Good shot stopper who likes a Hollywood save. He has nothing else to his game. Hyped up to fuck because he plays for United. When you actually think about it, he's crap at coming for crosses, does not command his box very well, does not move off his line and his distribution is terrible. Just because he sticks a leg out here and there, the sycophants in the media blow smoke up his arse. He is useless for Spain because they don't park the bus.

I have said this for a while on here and elsewhere, he’s certainly needs to work on his all round game. Part of a goalkeepers excellence is how he commands his box and organises his defence, de gea comes up short on this aspect of his game. If De gea could organise his defence, or Utd had defenders who could organise the defence de gea wouldn’t need to make world class saves every Saturday. More than talent, leaders are what utd are crying out for in the last few years. That being said, I don’t see many goalkeepers who organise and command there box like a generation ago.

So by your logic if Citys keeper is better than Utds it would suggest that the defenders in front of him are worse than Utds or why is he conceding as much as DDG............Would you say that? Are Citys defenders worse than Utds? Hmm? Or would DDG of had to put up with worse defending in front of him at Utd last season? The reason City were so far ahead of Utd last season was not their goal keeper fella. Not even a factor. It was what City did going forward. Banging in 30-40 goals more than your nearest rival is a major difference maker. Not conceding 1 less goal.

The way City play though means the keeper does have an impact on the attack, which is the stylistic argument why DDG wouldn't play for city. As far as traditional goalkeeping qualities, DDG is definitely better than Ederson though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdvruxk Posted August 24, 2018 Report Share Posted August 24, 2018 All this and the assertion DDG has ‘shocking’ distribution. He’d be more than comfortable playing for them. Laughable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not saying he's a better keeper in terms of shot stopping. City are better with Ederson in goal than they would be with De Gea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
