David De Gea loses his form

In his recent interview after returning to Old Trafford Hnederson said, “I’m so close now so I’m not going to give up – I’m going to put the pressure on. I respect David, he’s been a phenomenal servant for the football club and if not one of the best in recent years. It’s down to me. I know what challenges are ahead. I’m well up for it.” quoted by The Guardian.
De Gea is now under immense pressure to perform for Manchester United with Dean Henderson breathing down his neck to claim the No. 1 spot.
