What do we do about DDG
With the recent horrible mistakes made in the defence, a lot of questions have been asked about MUTD number 1, David De Gea.
He is easily in the worst patch of form since joining United. Having recently signed a bumper contract extension, making him amongst the highest-paid players in the squad.
It's a fair shout to say that for the last 18-24 months, DDG hasn't performed to the level his wages command.
With Dean Henderson having a stellar season on loan at Sheffield and Sergio Romero tallying impressive stats in all cup competitions, it's not like there is a lack of suitors to put pressure on the divisive 1st-choice keeper.
So my question to you the fans. How should Ole Gunnar Solskjaer deal with this obvious drop in levels?
Is recalling Henderson and telling DDG that his position is no longer safe the best option?
Should Ole be ruthless and drop DDG for Romero for the remaining Premier League fixtures?
Or should Ole continue to back De Gea and hope he plays himself back into form?
Perhaps we try our luck in the transfer market.

Hi Joshua! I'm a community admin and have just edited your post a little bit and made it prettier - for lack of a better word, lol. I hope you like it :) Ole has to be ruthless you know, he's said some heavy stuff about how no player is bigger than the team and he needs to show it now - even if it is a seasoned player like De Gea. That said, I grew up watching De Gea play and it is impossible for me to even picture someone else in the goal at United but change need not always be a bad thing and we need a change for sure.
Thanks alot! I love it! Almost looks like a proper news article/opinion piece lol. Between my wide fingertips and limited phone storage, I couldn't upload or edit things properly. so thanks alot for that! I agree with your opinion also. There's alot of options to deal with this issue. But it's hard to know what the best option would be.
Drop DeGea for the remainder , play Romero and sign Henderson for next season on a rotation
Wild Thang, DDG has not been benched before in EPL, I think that's why he's not giving too attention to what he should do best Let's replace him at least for one match.
IMO we play ddg on EPL and Romero in Europa League until final. Dont shake the boat too much til summer which is when we either make mega bucks off of Hendo or watch ddg in training and if no better than make hendo #1 til ddg gets his form back
