De gea must become the best options for all of them but in fact that if everything totally depends on the various things. I meant that if de gea has no good history at the end of his career since manchester united was kicking him out. I see no points to use him as a new goal keeper for the newcastle. Unless the club will be trying to take a part on it. It's a risky decision from newcastle and i think that will better if newcastle is trying to get another goal keeper but de gea has a very good experience as a good keeper on MU for so many years. His experience was more than enough to make him play in the newcastle.

It seems like Newcastle likes to buy goalkeepers who have been sorted out at other clubs. In the case of De Gea, I don't know. But Newcastle has Loris Karius sitting on the bench as well who has not made a single game thus far if I am not mistaken. Is Newcastle looking for a new number 1 goalkeeper? I missed those news then, I only noticed that De Gea is still without a club and could be signed any time I suppose. They have all these old goalkeepers. For the long term they should try to find a great talent that will take the goalkeeper position for a long time. It is one of those positions where consistency is key more than anywhere else.

I think injury to Nick Pope has made them look after a very strong goalkeeper. Nick Pope have been exceptional for the Magpies and injury of Pope has made a huge dent in their squad. I think someone like Karius can be considered as a temporary change or in case of short term injury but I don't think it's a great choice for long run. Buying another goalkeeper will also be a waste as when Pope will return it will be hard to deal with excess goalkeepers then. I think best option is to see if there are some good goalkeeper in other team sitting on the bench and sign them for a short term or on loan.

I respect Loris Karius and I think he has been unfairly treated sometimes, but his quality isn't good enough for the Premier League. The mistakes he made in the Champions League when they lost the final against Real Madrid were extremely controversial as there may have been issues with his health after he got attacked by Ramos, but those mistakes burned into my mind and those were not the only mistakes. I think he could be a temporary solution as you said, or maybe he is able to surprise everyone and to play flawless for a long enough time. But if Newcastle has to go without Pope for 4 months,  it is probably better to be on the safe side here and add another goalkeeper. But finding one for long term planning is never easy.
