The 7 times De Gea was let off for horror blunders proving Man Utd should drop him amid Dean Henderson competition

DAVID DE GEA practically handed Chelsea victory on Sunday with another two bloopers in Manchester United's FA Cup semi-final loss.

And it isn't the first time the Spanish keeper has been at fault, with many fans now questioning whether he should stay first choice.

Dean Henderson has been playing out of his skin on loan at Sheffield United, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer already hinting he is a future No1.

But after De Gea's latest howlers, the future could well be now with Henderson deployed between the sticks for next season.

Here, SunSport checks out seven big-time errors that raise serious doubts over De Gea's longevity at United.

July 2020, Vs Chelsea, FA Cup, X2

Deep in first-half stoppage time - following a long break because of Eric Bailly's head injury - De Gea was caught unawares by Olivier Giroud.

The French striker turned in a Cesar Azpilicueta cross to the near post that wiggled right through the goalkeeper.

Then, just a minute after the second half started, De Gea produced an even worse howler when he failed to stop Mason Mount's shot.

Mount - scoring his first goal in 26 games - intercepted a shocking Brandon Williams pass before striking from outside the box.

Although it was reasonably well hit along the ground, it was a save one would expect a Sunday league goalkeeper to make.

BBC pundits Alan Shearer and Ashley Cole even suggested De Gea could have prevented Harry Maguire's own-goal - but that might be throwing too much blame.

In the first game back from lockdown, De Gea allowed Steven Bergwijn's near post shot to give Spurs a 27th-minute lead in North London.

Addressing his blunder, Solskjaer gave the Spaniard his full backing by calling him the "best goalkeeper in the world".

He said: “He makes great saves, he wins games for us and I still think he’s the best goalkeeper in the world."

But United legend Roy Keane was fuming with the shot-stopper, saying he was "sick to death of this goalkeeper" and he would be "swinging punches at him".

Just before lockdown came into force, De Gea dawdled on the ball and his delayed clearance hit Everton’s Dominc Calvert-Lewin’s outstretched leg and went in.

Again, his boss protected him in the media, saying: "It's something that happens in football once in a while if you take too long on the ball”
