Cut the lad some slack, he had a better game for United last night but there were a few wobbly moments yes and he seemed more confident.

He's 20, needs to adapt to a new country and learning the language to communicate with his team mates. De Gea will make mistakes at first but he has the talent to learn from them and improve, if SAF has seen something in him to develop than going for an experienced GK, then it shows he is looking to the future in that position long term.

Players like Reina and Cech were good when they came to the GK but I bet they made some mistakes at first and didn't become world class overnight like they are now.
