Should have kept Bravo as first choice even if Ter Stegen didn't like it, who cares if the Chilean is older as keepers can go on for years.

Not every German keeper is going to be like Manuel Neuer.

If he doesn't improve throughout the year, you might wonder if spending big on someone like De Gea might be worth it.

I want to watch the goal again
but it isn't just about missing a pass as this can happen and we all know about Barca needing a passing GK.but he had 2 or 3 players who wweren't only had clear way to get the ball but were also in a better place to start the attack. He just choose the pass that he can show his passing ability with and the team is the one that suffer.
Passing to teammates are one thing,choosing the hard choice is another

Absolutely true. Nothing to be said. Felt the same way. He just overestimates his passing ability all the time. He is just arrogant. That's the word. But not arrogant like a star (like Ronaldo for example), but arrogant without base.

If he doesn't improve throughout the year, you might wonder if spending big on someone like De Gea might be worth it.

Not even. Follow the Bravo pattern. Plenty of top keepers in La Liga. Most are pretty good with their feet. That Diego Alves is great. Some others are too in La Liga.

Barçapocalypse NOW!
The worst part is that he had like 3 easy options to pass...

He was also horrible in the other goals, while not directly his fault, he did weak attempts at stopping them...

Good player but Lucho and the defence have got sucked in to believing he is better than the CBs on the ball.

Far too often when the defence should be breaking the lines into Busi etc into midfield they defer and play it back to Ter Stegen to make that pass.

It needs sorted. He is a fucking goal keeper and other players like Pique in second half need to take responosibiity on the ball.

Was thinking the same. Don't know if he still wants to return to Spain, but if he does, I think he would much rather prefer us over RM.

This was just bound to happen with him. In some way I'm glad it happened now early in the season. We could have gotten at least 1 point if it weren't for his unnecessary idiotic "look at me I'm Neuer " shit.

while i believe the team as a whole is responsible for shipping goals, it is actually confidence shattering to realize that almost all of the 4 goal drubbings we've received in the last 3 years have come with ter stegen as the GK.

sevilla, bilbao, celta.

But if De Gea still want to return to Spain, and you can sign him for let's say 30m. Do you still try to find someone in La Liga or go for a proven World Class GK that's also in his mid-20s?

I would sign De Gea if possible, but if it isn't possible there's no reason we can't find a good keeper in La Liga.

I generally agree they use him far too often but that wasn't the case when he made the mistake. He had several options to easily pass the ball to and chose a completely illogical one. It was a horrible mistake and frankly, one too many.

De Gea had a blunder today as well. If we sign De Gea and let him play the way MatS does here, he'll make even more mistakes.
