Manchester United's David de Gea: Concedes two in loss
De Gea made four saves and conceded twice in Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Manchester City.
Analysis:
In the much-anticipated Manchester derby, the Sky Blues were far-and-away the better team in the first half. Despite missing their talisman-Sergio Aguero-City controlled almost every facet of play for the opening 40 minutes, which left United in a huge hole. De Gea still did well throughout the match to keep the Red Devils around, but they were unable to snatch a second goal to earn even a point. After a mid-week tie against Feyenoord of the Eredivisie in the Europa League, they face Watford just north of London next weekend to get their Premier League season back on track.
