Henry believes De Gea’s rival at Manchester City, Ederson, would have cleared the ball long before Vardy took his shot.

The Foxes took the lead at the King Power after a stunning counter-attack that fans have become so familiar with seeing since their historic title-winning campaign two years ago.

Wilfried Ndidi’s long through ball caught Manchester United out at the back and Riyad Mahrez was able to hold it up before laying it off for Vardy to finish well.

But Henry says De Gea should have been quicker off his line to clear the ball before Mahrez got it.
