Worrying David de Gea trend a concern for Erik ten Hag as Manchester United start date nears

The shot-stopper has won a handful of points for the club, meaning they could have been lower than the sixth position they find themselves in. In fact, Fbref have managed to rate his form using an expected-goals formula.

The post-shot expected goals ('PSxG’) rating outlines how many goals a team were expected to concede from any given shot they have faced this season. In de Gea’s case, he has a score of +7.0 which means he has kept out seven more goals than expected given the shots he has faced.
