Football prediction Kasper Schmeichel defends De Gea before the big clash between Leicester and Man United

The Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is of the opinion that criticism of his Manchester United colleague David de Gea creates a `wrong impression`. The Spanish goalkeeper has been criticized, especially after United`s 1:3 loss to Chelsea in the semi-finals of the Football Association Cup, as goals from Olivier Giroud and Mason Mount came after his mistakes.

Schmeichel said that the media coverage of De Gea`s performance could give the impression that the Spaniard was constantly wrong.

'It`s sometimes quite dangerous because he suddenly starts to form a certain opinion about someone like David. I know him, he`s been amazing for so many years, but every goalkeeper goes through periods of bad shape!', added Schmeichel.

There have been reports in the media that Dean Henderson, who is on loan at Sheffield United, will return to Old Trafford.

'I sincerely hope that Henderson, who had an incredible season, will be allowed to develop. I hope he gets another season, maybe two in Sheffield, and then he will be ready!', added the Leicester goalkeeper. 'But for now, De Gea is still a world-class goalkeeper. This is the goalkeeper position - you just can`t go wrong because you will be punished!', Schmeichel said.
