Manchester United: Fans slam David de Gea versus Istanbul Basaksehir - Manchester United News

Plenty of Manchester United fans have been slamming David de Gea as he conceded to Istanbul Basaksehir in the UEFA Champions League last night.

Indeed, the Spain international was unable to keep a freekick out of his own net as the reigning Turkish champions managed to get themselves back into the game in the second half.

Should Manchester United drop de Gea?

Yes

No

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team were relatively comfortable at that stage, having been 3-0 up at Old Trafford, thanks to two goals from Bruno Fernandes and a penalty from Marcus Rashford

However, Deniz Turic’s goal set up quite a nervy final 15 minutes for the Red Devils, which in the end, they managed to overcome with Dan James grabbing a late goal to make the final score 4-1 on the night.

Nonetheless, some Man United supporters felt as if de Gea should have been doing better with the effort on his goal.
