Owen Hargreaves has defended under-fire Manchester United keeper David de Gea as he blasted the Red Devils for their dreadful performance at Brentford.
United fell to a dire 4-0 thrashing at the hands of the Bees on Saturday evening, with many pointing the finger of blame at De Gea. First, he allowed Josh Dasilva's long-range effort to squirm under his arms instead of making what appeared to be a simple save.
Then when trying to play out from a goal-kick, he gifted Brentford possession after passing the ball to Christian Eriksen, who was being closely marked. That allowed Mathias Jensen to nip in and fire the ball in, putting the Bees in total control.
