This is the secret reason why David de Gea left Man United
So sad to see him go. But it’s the right time. He’ll always be a club legend. David de Gea announced that he’s left Manchester United after 12 seasons at the club. His contract ran out in June 2023, he had a new deal but wanted more money so didn’t sign it.
David has to a large extent been the victim of unfortunate timing. He is up there with all the legends but was caught up in the between Fergie and tenHag turmoil. I wish him luck and agree that we owe so much to him – for staying out of the bottom half in some seasons.
Bruno Fernandes believes David de Gea deserved an official send off in front of the Manchester United fans after his exit was confirmed
De Gea wanted more money than United was prepaired to pay and when United eyed the uppertunety to get a new more modern goalkeeper they did. It doesn’t mean thant United don’t appreciate David de Gea. And when you don’t sign the contract that’s in front of you, it’s either that the offer isnt good enough or the player thinks he is worth more than the club is willing to pay. We are talking about 375k. And when you look at how United are restructuring the whole club, it makes sense. We could and should be able to sign two players for that amount of money.
Andre Onana would be a huge Upgrade from De Gea
He is one of the best goalkeepers we’ve seen in the PL era, despite a loss of form for a period. Incredible shot-stopping that must have left fans of all other PL teams tearing their hair out at times. SportsFila wishes him the best.
He was past his prime this season and a keeper like Onana would be a better option now but this doesn’t take away from the fact that he has been a truly loyal servant to the club. THAT double save against Arsenal brings back memories of when he carried us in past seasons. Goodbye Dave, thanks for everything. Legend.
Farewell David and the best of luck for the future. Since Fergie left, your saves helped to keep United in the top half of the table season after season, winning player of the season five times is testament to that. Without a doubt one of Manchester United’s greatest goalkeepers.
What led to David de Gea leaving Manchester United?
David De Gea has made some high profile errors over the years, but he’s a Manchester United legend regardless, during the post Sir Alex Ferguson era, he’s been one of the very few Manchester United players that have actually produced and he saved them on so many occasions in goal. He should’ve been treated properly and his exit wasn’t handled the way it should’ve been and he deserved better from the club.
Credit/ Sky Sports: Should Man United keep David de Gea or sign Andre Onana?
He was one of the best goalkeepers in the world during his peak and he was brilliant, but overall I think it was the right time for Manchester United to part ways with David De Gea. It’s not just because of his mistakes and inconsistency, Erik Ten Hag wants a ballplaying goalkeeper and De Gea doesn’t fit that mold and that’s also a reason as to why he’s been out of the Spain squad for a while, he hasn’t played for his country since 2020, and his inability to play out from the back has contributed to his Manchester United exit and why he hasn’t played for the national team in 3 years and he might never play for Spain again.
Erik ten Hag is angry at David de Gea
He’s great at making saves, but his distribution with the ball at his feet isn’t good, and nowadays in the modern game being a good shot stopper isn’t enough as you also have to be able to be good with the ball at your feet and he just didn’t fit that and they’re on the verge of signing Andre Onana a player who was critical in Inter Milan getting to the champions league final keeping the most clean sheets in the competition and he’s able to play out from the back. He’ll still be missed by Manchester United fans but they were right in ditching David De Gea.
David De Gea deserved better treatments after 12 long yrs at United…should have a better sent off …is sad to see him leaving United after 12 yrs…He is one of e Top GK in e world when he is at his peak…he is always a legend!!! Hope he will achieve more trophies in another club!!!

A new GK is the most important signing for United. It allows ETH to implement his style. You don’t need a top striker to score a lot of goals. Arsenal only scored 6 less goals than City with Jesus missing 12 games.

The fact that Southgate is on that list tells how serious you should take it
No manager on earth could do anything with Manchester United until Someone takes responsibility for the club and has a viable plan for the future.

ESPN loves ManUtd. As much they say that they hate talking about ManUtd they can’t stop talking about ManUtd 😅😅. They have spend 15 mins speaking on rumours – Hypocrites.
Sack Ten Hag Now: Man Utd Fan Makes Bold Claim
It’s not Ten Hag fault when players like rashford do not put in all the effort after signing a new contract. Also ten hag had to deal with incredible amount of injuries which ESPN deliberately overlooks. So getting another manager isn’t going to solve anything.
It’s so funny how the English media fails to realize that the structure & the players is the problem at united…..but they trying to sack ETH who is an elite manger under a proper management structure 💯
The best manager that seems to be being overlooked shouod be n1 on the list for bayern utd liverpool is someone inzaghi. Hes done great things with Lazio and inter. Loads of experience and has got to european finals and won domestic leagues.
Manchester City 3-1 win over United in Manchester Derby.
It is very different getting an underdog /dark horse to perform vs going to an environment where the spotlight in on you everyday from day 1. The same thing happened at Bayern with a couple of their coaches…
Afcon 2024 victory is well deserved for Ivory Coast they left no stone unturned and they dominated throughout. If there is a one person who deserved to win the AFCON it was Sebastian Haller. In 2022, he was diagnosed with cancer but he recovered and he returned to play football in 2023 only to bottle the Bundesliga title on the final matchday to Bayern but here we are in 2024 where he scored the winner in the AFCON final to win Cote d’Ivoire AFCON title so congratulations🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🏆
Brazil Antony fulfill his potential at Manchester United?
FT: Nigeria 1-2 Ivory Coast
But Ivory Coast won fair and square. They played better. Congratulations champs.
What Adingra did in the African Cup of Nation was phenomenal. Nigerians will remember him as a nighmare forever. The boy has a great future ahead of him.
Why Biased Ten Hag Cannot Discipline Rashford Like Sancho
Haller beats cancer, then comes to the AFCON and scores the most important goal in the final, the winning goal what a beautiful story for that man and Ivory coast, congratulations to them👏👏
Congratulations to Ivory Coast from cameroonian👏👏👏you organized and won the most beautiful AFCON in story, unbelievable achievment when we look how things went for you.
One of the best tournaments I’ve seen.
Almost every team demonstrated that they were not afraid of their opponent and played above expectations.
Congratulations to Côte d’Ivoire who never gave up and believed and implemented their progress towards goal as much as possible until the last second in this tournament. Kudos to Nigeria for high yield and quality.
Thank you for making the spectators so emotional and congratulations and best wishes to the Ivory Coast and the Ivorian people.

Congratulations to Ivory Coast for winning the Africa Cup🏆! The team showed strength and desire to win and to not give up until the end. And the fans were absolutely amazing
P.s Haller deserved it the most, since he suffered a lot.
The story of Côte d’Ivoire’s victory in the African Nations is one of the most beautiful stories in the history of football. We sympathized with this team’s version a lot and we will tell it to our children in the future 🧡

‘He’s very coachable, he wants to learn, to improve every day’ |SportsFila can feel the meaning of a ‘coachable player that wants to improve every day’. Because ETH has to deal with players that are not like this at all.
remember at Ajax TH once said “a process takes time, but by throwing in young players in big games that process gets accelerated”. Always stuck with me considering he let Mainoo debut against Everton (after the 10 point deduction at an intense Goodison Park) and then straight into the Galatasaray away game in the CL. H
He also has done the same with Garnacho last year and this year. Then he did the same with Pellistri against Bayern Munich who in my opinion did well enough to deserve another chance. I think it’s a way for him to see how they respond to the pressure and intensity. He’s not afraid to play the youngsters ONLY if he considers them good and fearless enough.
Why Roma loved and sacked Jose Mourinho
He made De Ligt Ajax captain at 18 years old because he saw leadership qualities. He has his own methods, but I’m convinced he knows exactly what he’s doing regarding the future of United. United fans need to remember 75% of this current squad won’t be part of the future so maybe allow him a bit more time to show what he’s trying to build.

ETH is a highly resillient manager to go through all the crisis and egos, poor performances, players personal issues and ownership drama and come out on the other side with these kind of performances. He brought in the right striker young full of potential and work ethic. Young players are starring in the squad WE ARE ON THE WAY.
Jadon Sancho Will REGRET His Behaviour At Man United
All the instability across the club that he’s gone through and still kept us in the Top 8. Now he’s finally seeing the other side of the drawn-out “club sale, no-sale”, multiple injuries, media controversies, spoiled players, and all the other nonsense, we see the team moving into sixth position. The man deserves all the praise in the world for being so resilient.
It’s interesting hearing ten hag speaking on rashford because he mentions a lot of qualities which he possesses, however they are all physical and technical, the one thing he didn’t speak positively about was his mentality and for me this is what has always separated Rashford from the very best.
In football and sport as a whole mentality is the one thing you need more than anything, it’s what separates the good from the great and I don’t know if rashford has that real hunger and desire in him to be great. The kind of desire where you’re willing to get hurt to score a goal.
