And?

one was a rookie, the other is an experienced pro.

 

[Zidane98]

Don't think I said otherwise. Ours was just more so.

And I never said otherwise either. It wasn't the reason we won though. Espescially considering the performance Moreno put in.

 

[Cooldude]

Wasn't De Gea an established starter at Atletico? Wouldn't say their circumstances are too different. Not saying Karius would be as good, like

We kept 3 clean sheets the past 4 games so I don't give a shit anyhow

 

[Cruyff14]

I believe it was.

Each to their own.

the physicality of the bundesliga and the prem is similar.

Dave needed some time to get in the gym and avoid having andy carroll elbow him in the face. Dave had a season and a half at atleti.

Karius played about 100 games for Mainz and has been gash this year.

 

[Cooldude]

Bundesliga isn't really that physical, it's a bit more compare to the La Liga but still nothing compare to the prem

Who cares about Karius anyway even if he doesn't work out, he cost peanuts and we still have another keeper, irrelevant in the grand scheme of things

De Gea had been first choice at Atletico Madrid already. And he was dropped in 12/13 when he was 21/22.

he was dropped in his first season aged 20. He also had a talent level far in excess of lolris. He was just too lightweight at corners.

Don't realise playing first choice at Atletico Madrid made you a rookie. My bad.

how much obsession

so dave was younger and had played less games. There talent levels are miles apart so I'm not sure why you would compare the two aside from your obvious obsession.

Obsession? How is pointing out that dropping a young goalkeeper out of form is hardly unusual? I think i've pretty much put your arguments to bed on this one.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

because he's not out of form, he's just gash, like Janssen.

We'll see. He'll be playing in the FA Cup match and LC semi finals coming up shortly so we'll be able to gauge if he is indeed "gash" !

is Mignolol being rested?

 

[Zidane98]

Mignolol took the piss out of Aguero, someone find a gif for lols

Whichever keeper wasn't playing league football was always playing cup football this season. That's how it was for Mignolet before Klopp dropped Karius.

 

[Sozabarus]

To be fair to "Mignolol", he's got a higher clean sheet % than De Gea this season and that's without the luxury of having a bus parked in front of the goal.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

clean sheet % has always been the best way to judge goalkeepers. ....

The utd bus with no dms yeah

 

[Zidane98]

If Karius is gash how bad must United be if they couldn't score past him

They couldn't score past Liverpool FC. Defending is a collective effort.
Defenders and DM's probably more important, they stop shots occurring.

 

[jd2010]

kangaspurs should have made your point about top flight games. They were his first 100 top flight games which is pretty impressive especially when you remember his first dozen were at the back end of the Sherwood/AVB season when he was off the bench.

What's great is that you have close to the best keeper in world football and according to you we have Mignolol and Lolris. Yet we still 7 points clear of you.
