'World class' De Gea doesn't deserve any blame after conceding 'freak goal' against Watford - Shaw

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has been described as "world class" by Luke Shaw, who says "there is no way you can point any blame at him" after the Spaniard's blunder against Watford.

The Red Devils suffered a major setback in their pursuit of a top-four finish when they came up against the Premier League's bottom club at Vicarage Road on Sunday.

After a subdued first half, Watford were gifted the lead in the 50th minute when De Gea parried a weak Ismaila Sarr effort into the net, sparking wild scenes of celebration among the home supporters.
