Do you really think that after all his aerial feck ups they didn't try to coach him to be better at it in all these years he's been playing football? I doubt any of his prior clubs didn't attempt to make him better at coping with high balls but he's just not good at it, it's that simple, most players have a weak area in their game, it's just stupid that we are buying a guy who is weak in an area where it is vital in the league we play in.

The journos will end up saying we paid Real cash+Dave for Navas, who never wanted to come here in the first place and regards Van Gaal as an incorrigible buffoon.
If it's £29m including Navas, it's a shocking deal. If it's £29m + Navas, it's an excellent deal.
Even with 36 mill pounds for the 19 year old we still looking almost at 0 debt with Chica and ddg gone for about 36 million combined so we still can splash more money...
Both are quite young for a goalkeeper with one of them having played regularly only since 2012. I don't know what you see in a GK to know who is gonna make it here or not. Is signing a rookie goalkeeper really the right time now when we just have a fixed stable defence in a long time? I am happy we went for Navas. He at least has experience .
I'm confused
Anyone who want so say that is not good deal is stupid.
Ofcourse i am as everyone disapointed that we are losing one of the best goalkeepers around but to get so much money and a great GK for a player in last year of his contract who would leave for nothing next season is a great deal.
Just a little reminder, many on this forum criticized LVG and Woody for not sorting this early when Real offered only 17m pounds and signing a GK like Leno or Lloris who are at the same level as Navas.
About which one it is? Aren't we all.
So he had lots and lots of aerial feck ups?
The right keepers are ones that have the attributes that are suited to the league we play in, Leno and Karius have them, Navas doesn't, so I'd go with a keeper that has the right skill set.
A £29m fee for DDG is a good deal with a year left on his contract, but now some reports are saying we got the £29m + Navas on top. If thats true then it really is a good deal.
Bloody Glazers eh?
It's simple. If it's 29m including the valuation of Navas (let's say 10m) that's 19m from real plus Navas which isn't great.. However if it is 29m + Navas it's a decent deal financially.
I assume your saying at the end of the day 29 mil cash and navas is a great deal? I agree
Every time a ball comes across he flaps at it so it's 50/50 on whether he gets a good connection or not as to how much trouble that leaves his defense scrambling to clean up, have you never seen him at all? You can get away with that in La Liga as he gets more freedom to punch as other than Atletico they don't rush the keeper physically on set pieces.
Imagine the fee if De Gea had a three year contract remaining 
. All jokes aside, this is a good deal and finally the end of this saga.
. All jokes aside, this is a good deal and finally the end of this saga.So we get a keeper and £25m.. Either way you want to work it out it's a good deal for someone with a year left.
Ok got it
He has a year left on his contract, was not going to play for us, 29m is a good fee unfortunately.
I'd rather spend on another keeper than Navas, but rather him than Cillesen
About 10 pages about DDG is a good deal is it a bad deal, who cares
if he's gone , he's gone, we move on
if he's gone , he's gone, we move on
I just want our fans to support the lad
So lads, who we signing next?
£s or Euros though? Duckers tweet suggests Euros which wouldn't be as good a deal.
So just shy of 30M GBP, with possible bonuses. So United are pretty much getting what they asked for.
Agreed. Let's put it to bed and move on (to new targets in the immediate future).
The latter.
Big name incoming by tomorrow evening, obvious
Surely it's this:
Real Madrid have paid 40m euros for De Gea.
We have paid them 15m euros for Navas (fair valuation and Louis apparently wanted him last season).
Therefore we receive 25m euros plus Navas.

You mean who is leaving next?
You're too sensible for this forum
That's definitely how I perceive Ducker's tweet there.
Why, why are you doing this. I'm trying to be positive.
I don't reckon it'll be a big name. Maybe Berahino
There's not a chance in hell Woodward would let the window end on this sort of note, he loves himself far too much, he'll want some positive attention.
Financially we are really close to having a balanced transfer window which is strange to me so I assume there is another signing coming or maybe in January
We still havent signed Martiel yet!
Names?
