'I don't know what is happening' - Furious De Gea at a loss to explain Man Utd struggles

The Spanish goalkeeper couldn't prevent his side from slipping to yet another disappointing result on the road, with United 12th in the Premier League

David de Gea did not hold back in a scathing assessment of Manchester United’s performance in their 1-0 defeat at Newcastle on Sunday, saying he has not experienced a worse time at the club.

A debut goal from teenage midfielder Matty Longstaff was enough to seal victory for Newcastle in a drab Premier League game at St James’ Park, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side barely threatening throughout.

An Andreas Pereira shot from range and a scuffed header from Harry Maguire were as close as they got to troubling Martin Dubravka in the Magpies’ net as the result stretched their Premier League winless run to eight away games, and ten in all competitions – their last win on the road coming in the Champions League at Paris Saint-Germain.
