De Gea to start at Huddersfield ―Solskjaer

David De Gea will start for Manchester United at Huddersfield on Sunday, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed.

De Gea will play after No. 2 keeper Sergio Romero suffered an injury in training, removing a potential selection headache for United manager Solskjaer.

The Spain international has made mistakes in his last five games, including a high-profile error during the 1-1 draw with Chelsea, but Solskjaer’s potential selection dilemma has been removed after Romero picked up a knee problem.

“He [De Gea] will play,” Solskjaer told a news conference on Friday.

“Sergio was injured [on Thursday] so didn’t train, tweaked his knee, and David has been training well this week.

“David is confident and looking forward to the next two games. He wants to prove how good a goalkeeper he is. He has got all my confidence.”
