Man Utd legend Robson full of praise for De Gea

Manchester United legend Bryan Robson is full of praise for goalkeeper David De Gea.

De Gea will be looking to build on an outstanding second season at Old Trafford, which led to him being voted on to the PFA Premier League team of the year.

"He came on leaps and bounds in the second part of the season," said former Red Devils skipper Robson.

"He has matured, put a stone on in weight and strengthened up.

"He knows what the Premier League is all about now and I can only see him improving as he goes along. Iker Casillas said he is one of the best young goalkeepers he had ever seen.

"For Casillas to say that after the career he has had, he must know David is going to be a top keeper.

"He has just to keep improving, working hard at his game.

"I am sure eventually he will get into the Spanish team."
