It's his patchy little beard that real revs my engine.
 
I just hope he has lots of solid games to start his career, don't mind if there isn't anything spectacular to begin with...that will come. But any huge mistakes could start to cause big problems
 
I thought he did very well, exciting stuff. His passing is fecking great. Well done David Van De Gea.
 
Thought he was very impressive. Made a couple of good saves, his distribution was excellent and he was calm in goal although he did seem to be shouting at the defenders on a few occassions. Overall a good debut.
 
No, the site got reset. The stuff from Saturday - Monday is gone.
 
Can't really fault him for Thiago's goal. The swerve on that strike was unreal.

Otherwise he looked very assured again. Barca gradually gave him more work to do and he was always alert to the danger. His ball handling on the ground and in the air looks top class.
 
I like him.

Made a bit of a balls of one of his clearances, but apart from that he was solid.

And I don't get a deep feeling of dread any time the ball comes to him like I got with Foster and Kuszczak.
 
his massive punt upfield that almost set owen in was yumm
 
He really is so similar to Van Der Sar, I'm never worried about him in goal

Agreed. Lindegaard reminds me of Schmeichel. So we have the new Van der Sar and the new Schmeichel at our club? :D
 
His potential is almost unreal, can't wait to see him in the PL!
 
That was amazing, it nearly got to the halfway line! Need a gif of that.
Nowhere near.. still pretty impressive

David celebrates one of our goals
 
I like the look of him already. I think he'll just slot in comfortably as soon as he gets his first chance then there'll be no looking back.

Its great that he's so comfortable with the ball at his feet. His short passing is good also and is always played at a high speed, which fits in with how we should be playing.

Amazing that he actually found someone with it. Is it too early to say his distribution is already in the top 3 in the world?
 
He certainly looks the part.

Both goals he's let in so far are ones he had no chance with, everything else he's looked fantastic. Good at catching crosses, punching when he has to. Apart from one kick last night most of his distribution was top notch (that one ball to Owen was amazing), always looking to get things moving quickly.

Once he learns the lingo he'll be fantastic. Also really encouraged by Lindegaard, be good to have a very competent number 2 so they can push each other on.
 
Based on two preseason appearances, yes.

I know it's shocking, but it is actually possible to watch leagues outside of England.
 
to the tune of Falco's Rock Me Amadeus:
