Man Utd legend Neville: De Gea needs break from game

Manchester United legend Gary Neville says David de Gea needs a break from the game.

De Gea dropped another clanger for Sunday's 1-1 draw with Chelsea.

Neville, on Sky Sports commentary, had a lot of sympathy for the Spaniard.

"David de Gea, I don't know what to say, he's having a nightmare of a time. What a time he's having.

"I had a nightmare time at the end of the '99/'00 season. I just needed the summer, he needs the summer. Get away from football, reset. It's so difficult for him at the moment."
