Gary Neville has insisted that Manchester United need to tie keeper David de Gea to a long-term deal at the club.
The Spaniard has established himself as one of the top keepers in world football due to his impressive displays at the Red Devils, which was highlighted in his match-winning performance against Liverpool on Sunday.
Neville is adamant that Louis van Gaal has to do everything in his power to ensure that the 24-year-old remains at Old Trafford for the foreseeable future.
He told Sky Sports News: "He's winning Manchester United match after match, which is what I would expect from a Manchester United goalkeeper. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said it was a performance he had not seen in 15 years of going to Old Trafford and I would agree with him.
"He has now become a great goalkeeper, a fantastic goalkeeper. Manchester United are ranked third in the league in the most errors leading to shots but in errors leading to goals they're the best in the league because their goalkeeper pulls them out of the mire every single time.
"It's fantastic performances, great goalkeeping and Manchester United have got to get this lad signed up because he's a big, big player for them now."
De Gea joined United in 2011 from Atletico Madrid.
