I am convinced that most people are keen to watch football match because they want to stare spectacular goals. Teams such as Real Madrid and Barcelona are usually discussed because they have an outstanding striker, i.e. Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Yet there is one team at the moment which discussed not because its phenomenal striker, but its goalkeeper. That team is Manchester United. David de Gea who stands below the crossbar of Manchester United has attracted many football managers, audience, and other players due to his toughness.
Once again, David de Gea rose as a superhero at the Manchester United match against Liverpool, on Sunday (14/12/2014). De Gea was pointed as man of the match when his team, Manchester United, won a match with 3 goals. This seldom happens when a football team can win 3 goals, and its goalkeeper is pointed as the man of the match. Everyone who watched the match definitely agree the match was belonging to de Gea. The remarkable performance of David de Gea did not only secure MU's winning, but also got crucial three points to chase Chelsea on the top position.
In this season, de Gea had frequently saved MU from losing prior to match against Liverpool. Match against Arsenal, for instance, was the most remembered by plenty of the Red Devils and the Gunners fans. On the game, de Gea succeeded to make Sanchez and Wilshere frustration due to always failed to knock down de Gea. I was convinced that MU could be defeated more than 3 goals on that match. Starting on that match, I am becoming more interested to watch de Gea saves rather than how many RvP scores goals.
David de Gea, born on November 7th 1990, performance on Sunday match did not only get appreciation from the opponent club, but also from other footballers. Rio Ferdinand and Peter Schmeichel, both are MU’s living legends, acknowledge de Gea is brilliant. Whilst, Phil Neville told that de Gea would be the last player he would be sale. I believe that Louis van Gaal will have similar opinion like those people. MU cannot stay at the top three like they did at the moment, if de Gea does not superbly perform like now. Therefore, David de Gea deserves to get two times MU best player consecutive for October and November period on this season.
To sum up, Manchester United has revived to be the best club once again like Ferguson’s era. Nevertheless, there are few sides still needing to rapid improvement, such as back side. However, I believe MU can finish this season on top four since De Gea become the most crucial player for MU at the moment. De Gea has emerged as new superhero who guards MU goal from opponent’s attack.
