David De Gea's New Hairstyle Is Roasted In Manchester United Training Session

Just when you thought the top knot was a thing of the past.

Despite being prone to the odd mistake during his early days at Manchester United, the consistent David de Gea has developed into a vital cog for club and country, but his decision making has been questioned once again, this morning.

As we all know, the 26-year-old rarely falters in between the sticks, but his latest hairstyle could be classed as a 'minor' slip up.

Ahead of Tottenham's trip to Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon, Manchester United uploaded a training ground video on Twitter showing the first team preparing for the important Premier League fixture.

It shows the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial in action, but David de Gea's hairstyle has caused plenty of reaction on social media.

Someone even suggested that Gareth Bale had slipped on a United jersey.

While others advised the Spaniard to 'get rid of that top knot real quick' and 'get a hair cut'. It's a cruel world, David:

De Gea has proven time and time again that he is world class, even if FIFA don't recognise him to be among the world's best.

The 26-year-old's absence from the full-15 man list baffled many fans, especially those from the Premier League. His omission from the FIFA 'Best' nominations list was all the stranger given that the only former goalkeeper on the voting panel was Edwin Van der Sar.

Thoughts on FIFA's decision to leave him out of the 15-man list?
