THREAD:

Over the past year has Dean #Henderson staked a realistic claim to be #ManchesterUnited’s number 1 #Goalkeeper ahead of David #DeGea?

I will mainly investigate an area of GKing that receives little statistical analysis:

Cross Claiming & Sweeping

#MUFC #GKUnion
Firstly before that, I think it is well known that #Henderson had an outstanding shot stopping season while #DeGea didn’t.

Here are the numbers:

#Henderson Save%-ExSave +5.88%
#DeGea Save%-ExSave% +0.78%

2 important conclusions should be drawn from these numbers...

#MUFC
1. #DeGea did not have a below avg season, yes he make shot stopping mistakes but he made enough worldy saves to out weigh the mistakes.

2. #DeGea has only once (17/18) had a better shot stopping season in his career (according to PSExG) than #Henderson had this year.

Hi everyone, here is the link to our private facebook support group “Inside The Box” if you’d like to join

✅ This is purely for the mental side of the game (no training videos / match footage will be posted)

🙌 We’ve got a great community already of ex pros / pro goalkeeper coaches, young aspiring goalkeepers, parents, older goalkeepers all sharing their experiences of the mental side of the game

We lose far too many players because of the stress / anxiety the position places on us
The whole point of this group is to hopefully reduce the number of players we lose due to those reasons by having a safe place to seek support

With the right guidance and support, no player should feel like they need to walk away, no matter what the level they play.

“In terms of ability I probably underachieved. But in terms of mentality, I probably overachieved” ImageImage
He was fortunate enough to play for a huge club @RangersFC but during a difficult time but still tried to play in a positive way

Which we hope we can encourage others to do the same
The reason we started this page was because Lee had always felt he had under achieved and wasted a lot of his career and now we want to make sure that the keepers coming through now don’t make the same mistakes!
