'Mentally he's not quite the same': David De Gea's poor form is not just a 'blip', claims Gary Neville... as he says goalkeeper has been struggling for TWO YEARS - days after Roy Keane slammed stopper for his Spurs error

Gary Neville believes that Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea's struggles are not simply just a 'blip' - and has urged the under-fire stopper to 'go back to basics'.

The 29-year-old was lambasted for his error that allowed Steven Bergwijn's powerful shot to hit the back of the net in United's draw against Tottenham on Friday, and has also been criticised for a number of other mistakes this season.

De Gea's poor form is a far cry to the heroic displays that earned him United's player of the season accolade on four occasions, and Neville admitted he is concerned by his dramatic fall from grace.
