Winger Zaha was Sir Alex Ferguson’s last signing as Manchester United manager when he joined from Crystal Palace for £15million.

The youngster, 20, was expected to be a major player for David Moyes’ men this term.

But after starting in the 2-0 Community Shield win over Wigan, Zaha has disappeared from the first-team picture at OId Trafford.

“In the next two or three years I think he’s going to develop into an excellent player”

De Gea said: “He’s still young but you can tell he’s a top player.
“He has areas of his game that he needs to work on and things he has to learn.
“In the next two or three years I think he’s going to develop into an excellent player. He can do it all.”
