Ferguson praises keeper De Gea for taking a stand to Carroll 'strike' - Daily Mail

UPDATED: 09:26 EST, 20 April 2013 Sir Alex Ferguson feels David p Gea's effectiveness at West Ham on Wednesday revealed how much improvement the Manchester United keeper has made since his birth from Atletico Madrid. Delaware Gea has endured heaps of criticism all through his small amount of time in England. Primarily it centres round the 22-year-old's not enough a physical existence, and failure to deal with busy penalty areas. Actual presence: David p Gea gets up above Andy Carroll to pluck the ball from the air Also strong: Carroll's today popular concern on De Gea and Patrice Evra Yet he may have had no longer firm assessment compared to the one provided by Andy Carroll at Upton Park, with Ferguson however of the belief he must have been sent off for a clattering first-half concern on De Gea. More importantly though, De Gea came through the test with flying colours, dispelling questions over his ability to deal. 'His first game last year was overseas against West Brom,' Ferguson told MUTV. 'The umpire thought he was a new goalkeeper, who was not used to English soccer. There clearly was a laxity in terms of security for him. 'That has handed now but Wednesday was beyond the pale. Let's be honest, there is an attack on him. 'But he stood as much as it. He did not allow it influence him. He was courageous and got on with his job.' Standing up: One of the times David de Gea got the better of Andy Carroll through the Premier League battle Delaware Gea is closing in on his first Premier League title winners' honor, as is midfielder Tom Cleverley, who has had a strange time. An ever-present for England this season, Cleverley has additionally racked up 30 appearances for United. He featured in essential Premier League victories over Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City earlier in the season and also began the next leg of the Champions League conflict with Real Madrid, when the Red Devils did therefore prior to Nani was controversially sent off. Since then though, the only games he began were the FA Cup quarter-final and replay against Chelsea and he's not been involved in some of the three league games since his six-minute cameo at Sunderland on March 30. Too willing? Prior to Carroll launches herself at the defender and owner He does have a job to play though, even when the Yorkshireman recognises a need certainly to improve his objectives result, which currently stands at four. 'I haven't won for some activities, therefore I would not head another couple,' said Cleverley. 'It is obviously essential for someone in my own place to chip in with the objectives and get as close to double figures as I will. 'That would have been a good return for a midfielder.' Monday's Old Trafford encounter with Aston Villa must offer an opportunity given that, barring Reading, the midlands outfit gets the worst defensive record in the Premier League. Cleverley knows a number of Paul Lambert's small team from England Under-21 responsibility, and he can hardly have failed to observe Christian Benteke, who has been chosen for the PFA Young Player of the Season award. Preserving Villa's top-flight status is a lot of responsibility to place on such young shoulders. But Cleverley is not convinced there is anymore stress at the bottom of the group than there is at the most truly effective. 'There is stress at both ends,' he explained. 'There are plenty of young players inside our team who are needing to deal with the pressure of fighting for the name. 'They have exactly the same and are fighting against relegation. That is soccer. You will have to win games.'
