00:00 I got to be careful with my words here.
00:02 But I said at the very beginning when we bought Onana
00:07 is that be careful for what you wish for.
00:09 And I had my reason for saying that.
00:12 And I came under the pump a few times with people
00:15 with my remarks.
00:17 And I stick by it because I think
00:19 that De Gea, for the number of years he's been there,
00:22 yes, as you can see, it's a specialist position,
00:25 as you say.
00:26 You get documented.
00:27 You get called out for making mistakes,
00:28 particularly when you play at United.
00:30 The scrutiny is unbearable.
00:32 And so for someone like De Gea, where
00:35 he's done particularly last season,
00:36 to have that many clean sheets, yes,
00:38 there was errors in between that.
00:40 To win the Golden Glove, I think from a personal point of view,
00:44 I thought was the wrong move at the time.
00:48 But--
00:48 Have you changed your mind?
00:52 I want to give him the benefit of the doubt.
00:54 I really do.
00:55 But he's not helping the cause.
00:56 He's not making it very easy for me to change my mind.
00:59 I think the errors that he's made to this point,
01:02 although we're saying the stats doesn't lie in the Premier
01:05 League, he seems to be doing OK.
