David De Gea vs Dean Henderson
I want to take a look at some of the areas where DDG gets criticism & see how Dean compares in those exact areas.
This isn& #39;t an attempt at & #39;slating& #39; DDG therefore I won& #39;t be adding my opinion just presenting the stats as they are for you to judge.

DDG is often criticised for his handling of crosses. Let& #39;s take a look:
Attempted Crosses into the box faced
DDG: 268 (3rd Lowest in PL)
Dean: 274 (5th Lowest)
Crosses Saved
DDG: 13 (16th Best in PL)
Dean: 21 (7th Best)
Cross Save%
DDG: 4.9 (17th Best)
Dean: 7.7 (6th Best)

DDG is criticized for his actions outside the box

DDG: 12.2m (14th best)

Next is Passing

DDG: 12.6 (8th best)
Dean: 2.1 (worst in league)
Acc. Long Passes

Keep in mind Utd play out from the back while SHU don& #39;t.

Another concern is his command in aerial duels

DDG: 9 (16th best)
Dean: 16 (5th best)
Total Aerial Duels/90
DDG: 0.2 (19th best)
Dean: 0.5 (5th best)
Both of them maintain a 100% duel success rate among the 9 in the league to do so.

#MUFC & #SHU play different styles of football as is evident from this 1 stat:
Avg. Goal Kick Distance
DDG: 31m (shortest in the league)
Dean: 69.5m (longest in the league)
This style difference should explain some of the more ambiguous stats.
