David De Gea in the goal in the match with Man U

Man U goalkeeper David De Gea achieved heroic status in Manchester United’s thriller win over Tottenham on Sunday. De De Gea who made countless saves helped Man U stay in the lead after Marcus Rashford’s first half goal that eventually gave the Old Trafford side three points away at Wembley.

The Man U win puts interim manager Ole Gunnar Solskjær in a favorable position to succeed former manager Jose Mourinho, if his winning streak continues to the end of the season. Solskjær was full of praises for De Gea.

De Gea who made at least eleven saves in the second half was widely talked about on twitter, with many Man U fans endorsing him as one of the club’s greatest players ever.

“With De Gea, Man U will be forever unbeaten” one tweet exaggeratingly stated.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

Ole Gunnar Solskjær who is looking forward to replace Mourinho on a permanent basis had prior to the match said that the match with Tottenham would be his first real test.
