The way he powered past odegaard was Yaya-esque
Amadou Onana
- Thread starter Suedesi
- Start date
Onana, Doucoure, and Gueye midfield is tons of raw strength and stamina and could bring problems to many if they make it work.
Why are people comparing him to Fellaini? Nothing alike.
I've never seen Fellaini go on a run like Onana did down the left hand side which he is more than capable of. I think he will develop into a very good player - but I don't think he's anywhere near ready for a big club yet.

Tbf when Fellaini was at Everton we utilised him in attack and defence like we have with Onana. He was capable of doing those runs. Onana has a lot more potential though.
Was thinking that myself. The power and athleticism they would have make them difficult to deal with. Wouldn't be pretty at times but might be quite effective. Iwobi is a pretty powerful runner as well but has a bit more guile about them. That's the way I would go anyway and pray Calvert-Lewin can find fitness and form.
He is just excellent on the ball, imagine going from Onana at Ajax, to De Gea at Man Utd.
I think Ten Hag knew the dilemma when he tried playing out from the back on the first day of the season!

Wrong player?
Good player - what's Everton's asking price?
I saw somewhere that it was 40m+
they signed him for 33 so can't see 40 happening
At that point join the race for Lavia.
I could be massively off the mark but I just get the feeling Onana would be one of those players you buy that don’t particularly add anything, and just exist at the club for a few years as a squad member. Schneiderlin-esque.
If we’re looking at an additional squad member just stick to Amrabat, if we’re looking to be more ambitious and for a potential future XI player Lavia.
Onana is a fine player, but cost Vs return doesn’t add up.
I get numbers have went crazy recently but spending potentially 50+ on a squad member is crazy when in reality the first team still needs investment. Would be frustrating to miss out on first choice targets for starting XI over cost when we’d have the world’s most expensive bench/not in match day squad

Excelling much more now he's being played as a 6.

We need him back ASAP. He's been great this season.
He would be one of my top picks to replace Casemiro as a 6. He's got good athleticism, speed, height and decent passing ability.
Shite racist craic this
All Onanas look the same to you?
Would be insanely annoyed if he went to Arsenal.
I really like him. Obviously physically very good but he can play. Got nice light feet.
We should be going for him.

Starting against England tonight. Looks like he'll be the holding midfield, with Mangala and Tielemans as the 8's.
Be interesting to see how he gets on tonight, especially against Bellingham.

MOTM tonight. Was everywhere on the pitch.
How shit has the cafe decided he is now? Kevin Davies in midfield or Fellaini who can dribble abit?
