Manchester United's David de Gea: Concedes three in defeat

De Gea made two saves and conceded three goals in Sunday's 3-1 defeat to Watford.

Analysis:

That's now three successive defeats for De Gea and United. First, they lost in the Manchester derby last weekend and to Feyenoord in the Europa League mid-week, a trip to Vicarage Road seemed just what the doctor ordered for a struggling United side. However, within a quarter-hour, de Gea's decision making was called into question after allowing a wide-open net to Troy Deeney who was unable to capitalize. De Gea conceded three goals just four times in 55 matches across all comps last season and after a mid-week trip to Northampton in the EFL Cup, will need to straighten things out quickly as they host the champions Leicester in their next Premier League match.
