David de Gea has seen a huge amount of criticism this season following a number of high-profile mistakes.
His latest mistake came against Tottenham and it so infuriated Roy Keane that the ex-United man claimed he would have ‘thrown punches’ at the Spaniard.
Amidst recent criticism, Solskjaer has come in defence of De Gea and even claimed the 29-year-old was the best in the world yesterday.
United have Dean Henderson who has impressed on loan for Sheffield United this season.
And Graeme Souness believes proper competition from an in-form goalkeeper could help De Gea regain his form that saw him regarded as one of the very best.
“How long do you wait as a manager? At big clubs you cannot wait for ever and this is the second season he has been dodgy,”Souness said via the Daily Mail.
“I would get Henderson back and if he is good enough, he’s ready.”
“He comes back and puts De Gea under pressure. They fight it out between them and get the best out of both of them you are doing your job.”
“The clock is ticking on De Gea. He is an unorthodox goalkeeper and as a manager you cannot wait forever. I think De Gea has been in his arm chair, I would bring Henderson back and light the fire under him.”
“I think (Henderson) is a big time Charlie and sees himself as ready. You won’t know if he is good enough for United until you bring him back. As a manager you have a duty to do the right thing and get the best player in goal.”
