Spanish goalkeeper David De Gea has hit out at reports that he is no longer Manchester United's first choice keeper, with Sir Alex Ferguson instead preferring Anders Lindegaard.
De Gea joined from Atletico Madrid two years ago in a mega money move, but a series of high profile blunders have raised question marks over his long term future at Old Trafford.
"From the moment I signed I considered myself the first-choice keeper at the club but it's down to the manager," De Gea was quoted as saying in the Daily Mirror. "He rotates us when he feels it's good for the team, but obviously I've played a few on the bounce now and that's positive. For a goalkeeper it's always important to have consistency and to be playing regularly. It's good for confidence and morale."
