Manchester United have taken a quantum leap forward this season, but Spanish goalkeeper David De Gea's form has been a rollercoaster, solid for most of the season but deadly whenever he makes a mistake, Opta's data reveals that De Gea made five mistakes that cost the team points last season, and in the most recent game against Westham he made his fourth mistake of the season, tying him with Tottenham's Lloris for the most mistakes in the Premier League. He is the goalkeeper with the most mistakes in the Premier League, and has a tendency to "dominate".
Despite Dikia's mistakes, United manager Tannhäuser was still firmly on his side after the game, even publicly calling for his contract renewal, hoping that he will continue to defend the goal next season: "We hope that Dikia will renew his contract, and we hope that he will stay in the team and continue to play alongside us next season. Although Dikia made a mistake in this game, he is an excellent goalkeeper, if not for his performance this season, Manchester United may not reach the present position. Mistakes are part of the game and we need to learn to face and deal with them."
However, United's fans and players may not be so optimistic. Some netizens found that whenever Dickie missed, Rashford's first reaction was to hold his head in his hands, with his eyes on the sidelines of the Tannhäuser. Netizens have commented: "Manchester United players see their goalkeeper can't even make everyday saves", "Rashford used his eyes to imply that Tannhäuser is looking for a new goalkeeper", "Rashford's eyes are silent and soundless "......
