De Gea: My best season yet, but we need to win FA Cup

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea said he has had the best season of his career from a personal perspective, but wants to cap it off with silverware in Saturday's FA Cup final.

De Gea almost departed Old Trafford on transfer deadline day last year only for his move to Real Madrid to be scuppered after the relevant paperwork was not completed on time.

"It's been the best season of my career," said De Gea. "I'm in great shape physically and mentally I'm very focussed.

"If we win the FA Cup it will be a good season. We are all really keen to win such an important trophy for this club, our supporters and ourselves. We will fight to the end and do everything we can to win it."

"We've had a couple of difficult seasons so we are really determined to win the cup," he added.

"And winning it could provide us with that extra belief and motivation to hopefully go on and achieve great things."
