He's been a top goalkeeper for years, but throughout this tournament has proven that he's easily the best there is right now. He reminds me a lot of a prime Peter Schmeichel / Oliver Kahn. You just don't fuck with him. He runs this shit.
Why did United sign De Gea and not Neuer? They were reportedly interested in him but opted for De Gea. Sure, Neuer's older, but is twice the keeper De Gea is.
He's far and beyond any other keeper in the world, if you ask me.
