After Manchester United’s Saturday loss to Newcastle, David de Gea sent another mysteriоus tweet.
The Red Devils’ miserable season went on when they lost in the Premier League for the sixth time this year, a performance that was widely criticized by commentators.
While manager Erik ten Hag became clearly agitated on the sidelines, Jermaine Jenas of TNT Sports reported that certain players’ nonverbal cues indicated they “were either not happy with the tactics that was put to them or wasn’t happy with their positions on the pitch.”
When Brighton plays Chelsea on Sunday, the Seagulls might pass United in the league standings, which now stands at seventh place.
After the defeat, former United goalie De Gea posted a ‘ice cold’ emoji on his X account. Supporters conjectured that the message was connected to another subpar United effort since his departure.
The goalie has a history of posting enigmatic statements on social media recently.
He departed the team at the conclusion of the previous campaign when Erik ten Hag’s team pursued a new goalkeeper.
This season, there have been a number of uncertainties around his replacement, Andre Onana.After over 12 years and 550 appearances for the team, De Gea left at the end of the last campaign due to an inability to come to an agreement on a new contract.
Since then, he has been a free agent, and given the uncertainty surrounding Andre Onana in goal, there have even been rumors that he might sign again.
The 33-year-old has a history of leaving mysteriоus messages behind, frequently doing so last year even while he was still playing for United.
The Spaniard posted a contemplating emoji on his X account when he was originally connected to a return to Old Trafford in October. This has been a noticeable trend.
When it became apparent that he was leaving the club in June, he posted a yawning emoji on X, and in July, he posted a juggler in yet another installment of his single-emoji posts on the platform.
Since De Gea’s departure, United has had a lot of difficulties and appears to have declined in recent months, both on and off the field.
Onana, who cost £47.2 million, replaced De Gea in goal because of his great touch with the ball during games, albeit he has made some major mistakes that have allowed goals to go in.
Most recently, after a 3-3 draw in Turkey, United’s chances of making it to the Champions League knockout rounds were all but dashed when he gave up two careless goals to Galatasaray.
De Gea might decide to rejoin United as they seek cover ahead of Onana’s Cameroon game in the African Cup of Nations, even though it seems improbable.
Despite paying £47.2 million to join United, Onana has frequently felt that his shot-stopping skills are inadequate.
