EPL: Owen Hargreaves overlooks Ronaldo, names player Man Utd can rely on

Former Manchester United star, Owen Hargreaves, has overlooked Cristiano Ronaldo and identified David De Gea as the player the Red Devils can rely on this season.

Hargreaves believes De Gea is ‘back at his best’ at Old Trafford.

The former midfielder stated this ahead of Man United’s Premier League clash with Everton on Saturday afternoon.

De Gea has started the new season strongly after having struggled to find consistent form last season as he ended up being replaced by Dean Henderson at times during the campaign.

“He made so many big saves. David de Gea was one of the most important players and he’s been fabulous this season, obviously taking over from Dean Henderson,“ Hargreaves told BT Sport.

“They can rely on him, he is back to his best.“

He added, “And when you have [Edinson] Cavani and Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes and [Paul] Pogba at the top of the pitch, you can find a way to win games late.”
