Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson says he has yet to decide
who to play in goal when his club visit Newcastle United on Sunday
amidst signs he may continue his policy of rotation.
David de Gea had a fine game in goal when United won at Cluj on Tuesday but Anders Lindegaard
has played in the last four Premier League games and Sir Alex said the
form showed by both his keepers in recent games was symptomatic of the
competition for places across the whole of the club.
‘He [De Gea] was excellent,” Sir Alex said on Friday. “He is an
outstanding goalkeeper, the young lad; he is getting better all the
time.
“I don’t know whether I should play him on Sunday or not but the way
we have been doing it in the last few weeks has worked quite well for
us.
“Everybody wants to play, goalkeepers are no different, but the way I
look at it at the moment is getting the two of them experience will
help me in the long term
“Obviously at some stage one of them will take over if he shows a
real consistency in top-level performance and he has shown a maturity.
“At the moment neither of them have got that big-game experience. They will get that in time.”
