Rio Ferdinand issues verdict on David de Gea's United future after Dean Henderson return

Rio Ferdinand has backed David de Gea to rediscover his best form and retain his place at Manchester United. The Spaniard's performances have drawn plenty over criticism over the past 12 months with errors creeping into his game. His position is not helped by the continued emergence of Dean Henderson who has impressed during loan spells away at Sheffield United. Some have called for the Englishman to replace De Gea as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's first choice goalkeeper. However, Ferdinand, who was previously team-mates with the Spaniard, is confident he can get back to his best. Speaking to TeamTALK, Ferdinand said: “De Gea has the ability to get back to where he was. He’s shown over the years that he is a class act. He can now have a break for a few weeks and come back with his focus renewed. “He has the mentality to come back and reach his levels again. We’ve seen time and again how good he can be. "I think he can still be a big player for United, but he has a point to prove again now. He has had tough times before and has come back. "He’s a great goalkeeper and over the years he has been fantastic for United. He was player of the year four out of six years or whatever it was. "But if you are not producing the goods over an extended period of time you have to be told and there has to be someone waiting in the wings to come in.” Source- Mirror
