Dean Henderson's Erik ten Hag prediction at Manchester United looks like being proven right

David de Gea and Dean Henderson certainly had contrasting fortunes this past weekend. Just a week on from being complicit in conceding two goals in the first half against a team beginning with B, De Gea managed to do the same thing - but somehow even worse - in Manchester United's shocking, seismic 4-0 defeat to Brentford on Saturday.

De Gea was abysmal in London, allowing a tame shot to slip through his fingers for the opener before playing Christian Eriksen into trouble to lead to the second.

He hardly covered himself in glory for the next two goals either. The following day, Henderson put in a barnstorming display to help Nottingham Forest earn their first Premier League win in 23 years.

He was quick off his feet to stop a free header from going in after the ball had cannoned onto the bar and read Declan Rice like a book to deny him from the penalty spot.
