His previous 4 golden gloves were won with 18, 17, 18 & 14 clean sheets so 5 out of 5 so far is well on the way. In fact it's 9 out of the last 11 PL games so the defense is doing grand despite people thinking it's a weakness of ours.
Best keeper this club has ever had and by the time he finishes it's very likely he'll be the most decorated the league has seen.
De Gea has built a reputation based on making the simple look spectacular; he was overworked last season and therefore was more prominent for the Match Of The Day fanboys, but Hart was doing the same thing for Birmingham as a kid on loan, and in his first game back in 2010 against Spurs he was incredible. He's only really been constantly under pressure in Europe and he's produced some of the best goalkeeping displays the competition has ever seen against the very best forwards in the game.
Yesterday he twice saved Mangala from embarrassment, first when Bolasie exposed his poor pass and consequent dodgy positioning, and in the second half where he completely lost Puncheon and allowed him a free header.
He's coming into his prime and it's reflected by the maturity of both his technical goalkeeping and the presence he has; he's become a proper leader in the past 18 months.
The emergence of Jack Butland as a proper keeper and a genuine contender for the England #1 will only serve to inspire him to become even more complete; he's at his best when directly challenged by another keeper. He replaced and ended Kasper Schmeichel's career here after Sven initially given him the starting spot, he saw off Shay Given when he came back from Birmingham and being temporarily dropped for Pantilimon and then the signing of Caballero has brought out the best form of his career.

that game was an eye opener. i hadn't thought of him any more than "yeah, a decent young player" before that. in fact, i was even irked a bit that Mancini dropped Given who was rock solid for us, in favour of Hart, who i thought of like a tad hyped up figure after his nice spell at the Brum. boy, was i ever wrong!in his first game back in 2010 against Spurs he was incredible

He's been phenomenal since March. Arguably the best spell of his career, Stony, you're right, another golden glove is on the way.

A very good keeper, but as good as Trautman or Swift? Get away.Best keeper this club has ever had...
On his way. Can't say I expect him to get near the Van Der Sar 14, but It'd be good to see him get 9.
When he finally concedes he is going to go absolutely apeshit as well, you can tell him and Vinny really care about the clean sheets.

I thought Joe was slow getting down to the first goal today, I wouldn't expect him to be beaten from that distance very often and he didn't look unsighted.
