Twitter roasts David de Gea after an absolute howler at Camp Nou 🤦‍♂️

Manchester United started so brightly against Barcelona on Tuesday, but their night quickly went pear shaped.

United goalkeeper David de Gea could do nothing about Lionel Messi’s super opener, but the Spaniard was left with egg on his face after his blunder allowed another Messi effort to squirm through his grasp for 2-0 just minutes later.

Twitter was typically unsympathetic …

“You hardly ever see David De Gea make a mistake like that” apart from all the fucking time. Contender for most overrated footballer of all time

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been banging on about 1999 for so long that David De Gea wanted to get involved. Shame he went for Taibi in September rather than Schmeichel in April.

Whenever David de Gea goes to Spain, he turns into Lloris Karius.

Game over, think De Gea got put off by Phil Jones's head band! 😳😂

Oblak would have saved it. Piss off De gea and you’re best in the world. #fraud

If I was a passing Spanish observer, I’d be thinking David de Gea isn’t actually very good.

Best keeper in the world? Nah, you're alright. And after a weekend when Oblak was again sensational.

Oh, David. You hate to see it.

De Gea loves proving to the Spanish public that he’s not Casillas’ true heir

"A litte bit the foot of God, a little bit the hand of De Gea"

De Gea apparently did "super special preparation" for facing Messi. Basic ball stopping skills practice might have been more useful.

Getting shown up by Messi at Camp Nou - David de Gea finally gets a taste of what it's like to play in goal for Real Madrid.
