David de Gea sent Manchester United a transfer reminder during Crystal Palace draw

On a day when Manchester United were linked with one of the goalkeepers who has taken David de Gea's place in the Spanish national team, their current No. 1 issued the perfect reminder that it is what you do with your hands that really counts.

United are one of three of the big six who have reportedly cast a glance at David Raya, a reliable goalkeeper for Brentford whose biggest attribute is his ability with his feet. As Jurgen Klopp said of him last season, "the goalkeeper could wear the number 10 shirt."
