Manchester United manager David Moyes has said that he is satisfied with goalkeeper David de Gea's fine form before his side's Premier League match at Tottenham on Sunday.

According to the Guardian, De Gea returns to Spurs on Sunday a little older and perhaps a little wiser, safe in the knowledge that a blemish-free start to the season has made life easier for his new manager.

Moyes said that Ferguson put in a young goalkeeper at Manchester United and there were times when he made mistakes, adding that mistakes by goalkeepers tend to be more noticeable but de Gea became better with age and had grown in stature.

 

The new United manager said that the match against Everton after this Sunday's Tottenham visit could be an emotional evening but he is not that much of an emotional person.
