Nobody can defend Onana. His display was nervous from the kick off. How can a defender feel any comfort with that standard of GK behind him? Maz saved his blushes when Spurs would have easily scored from a Richarlison header. He has yet another soft goal against his name in what was a very bad night for United - and it could have been even worse for him personally.

If he is not sold in the summer, he needs to be sent off on loan as he must not be anywhere near the first team squad from now on.
Onana like McT, Antony and others before him will leave Man Utd and go elsewhere and shine whereas this club will still be struggling for years to come!

He is not a PL level GK. The persistent poor performances speak louder than words.
 
Fell down like a sack of potatoes again for the goal.

Not a mistake per se but you would be laughin if an Ederson didnt parry that "shot".

Needs to go. 5m Sommer is 3 times better, even if he is a bit short for the nature of crosses galore Premierleague.
Sell Onana, buy Sommer or anyone.
 
Of all the positions to let a bit of superstition in, GK might be it.

Should get rid of Onana immediately. The howlers definitely. The European Cup final streak of losses with Ajax, Inter and United. Yeah just be done.
 
I think we technically improve just by selling this guy and not having him as an option. Hopefully another game to go and he fecks off. Disastrous goalkeeper.
 
Our defenders don't trust Onana.

Our midfield doesn't trust Hojlund.

Both ends of the pitch need to be #1 priority in the summer window.

If we go into next season with this guy still in goal...
 
Wanted to take a break from caf but couldn't resist to log in and say something about this supposedly modern keeper who would "transform" the way we play. Yes he did indeed transform us. He made our entire backline shit their pants every time someone is near the box because they know this particular keeper has a reaction of a cat (if it was chonky) and has a slippy pair of hands he buttered before each game.

I'm fecking sick of this guy. Yes, the goal was not completely his fault because to me Shaw was having a brainfart there - which is a bigger crime. But you have to be ignorant not to notice his mistakes in other games over 2 seasons and how he doesn't have attributes of a top keeper. On top of it all, the only reason why we brought him here isn't even valid anymore. What kind of playing from the back do you expect out of a guy who looks like he's going to pull a Gerrard slip every time the ball rolls his way?
  1. Stretching - rubbish, can't even do a full stretch with one arm out, most of the time he has to use both hands to parry the ball!
  2. Positioning - rubbish, which makes point 1) even worse
  3. Reflex - rubbish, at times found ball watching, accepting his fate as the ball enters his goal
  4. Communication - rubbish, he can quote Sun Tzu's Art of War to our backline and I doubt they'd give any shit about it when he can't even do the basics right
  5. Ball playing - rubbish, we need the ball as far away from him, not near. Ball near Onana = closer to Oh, no, no
  6. Mentality - seemed rubbish? atleast not really his strong point. He looked like he's just eaten a large burrito and gone on a rollercoaster loop three times because he looked nervous as feck in that final game. If I was playing and looked at Onana I knew we're gonna lose. Karius vibes
Get rid of him. I'd take Bayindir ahead of him. I'd take any mid table keeper ahead of him. I'd take whoever is our GK from the academy ahead of him. And no, it's not just because of the goal in the final, it's the cumulation of all the stupid mistakes he did. Keeping him means we're masochists and would love to be done by our own keeper should we ever be in a final again.

He's not United keeper. He's had two seasons. The manager who wanted him is no longer here. He's at the age where he should be at his peak, not learning about the basics of goalkeeping!

Outnana.

I'll bet you in 5-a-sides and any short numbered games and drills he's dynamite. In training he probably crushes it because of those things, but in a real game when it's hard to stay focused, and footwork and reflexes are paramount, he just doesn't have it.
 
People still defending him in here! Jesus Christ Wtf are you on? :lol:
Incredible really one of the worst goalkeepers I've ever seen,has lead in his boots for shots,palms shots into dangerous areas,rarely catches easy shots,comes for crosses he can get no where near then shits himself,dives the wrong way sometimes,can go on and on guys is complete clown.

The problem is that it's not just us he's struggled with, had so many gafs at his previous clubs too, for some reason we overlooked that. It's funny how the only Europa final we've won was against him.

He has to go, don't care how much we lose, use the buy back on Kovar or promote or get someone in on the cheap, but please get this guy out of the club. Rumors of ETH to Leverkusen, let's swap keepers.
 


Whys he like jumping "up" when he needs to get down low. Horrendous

I originally said I didn’t think he should be blamed. Watching it back, it’s shocking. We need to get rid! And it’s not just about this game. He has been abysmal

It wasn’t his fault!!! What’s a keeper supposed to do when a ball is next to him?! This was an absolute banger of a goal and Onana couldn’t do anything about it, like all the other goals he conceded, there was nothing he could do about it
 
Somehow, they need to get rid of this useless clown.

If not a sale, then loan him out...as far away from the Old Trafford goalposts as possible.

He was like a nervy cat in the final. Before that, he was just abysmal.

Lack of fundamentals. I didn't see Inter enough to know if he did that while he was over there, but I cannot see an Italian goalkeeping coach allowing this
 
His wrists are made of glass.
To his credit, this has led to him registering more assists than any other United player this season.

He parries half of the shots he faces straight into the path of opposing strikers.

He literally could have taken a step to his right and reached down to pick up the ball - One day we will find out the truth about this guy and it will finally be obvious why these "mistakes" have been happening - mainly in games where United have a large viewing / betting audience.
 
A colossal brainfart for the goal. His job is to keep the ball out of the net. He looked like he was playing fecking Takeshi's Castle and getting out of the way of the ball.
 
Number 1 priority to sell this guy. Vicario did one howler as well, but I was reviewing the game and all the punches that he made from saves went to sidelines. If Onana was is his position you know that the ball would go straight to the middle.

He cost us an easy CL group exit (at least we could have qualified for EL as third), so many lost games or games that we have to make a comeback due to him.
 
Hes simply a poor keeper in every respect. Even his ball playing abilities were drastically overestimated and thats got to be the biggest part of why we bought him.

Watching him for Inter in the CL final a few years ago he was sublime. Absolutely top class in every way. Top top performance. Surely we did our due diligence though and didn't buy him based largely on that.
 
It cannot be overstated how much of a disaster this guy has been. The amount of money he has cost the club by continuously dumping u out of Europe is criminal. Our worst ever signing for me. He's absolutely abysmal.

Couldn't agree more, he is by far the worst signing we have made in recent years, I can't believe he was the GK of Inter, you got to give credit to their defenders back then to take them to CL Final, this guy is absolute crap.
 
Easiest save you'll ever see. Allison walks over to that and just picks it up.

Yet he is defended still
I think Allison trips over his own feet when trying to walk over to it.

With us both having created imaginary scenarios I guess we'll never actually know.

Me too - if you factor in that he is the 4th most expensive goalkeeper of all time it's absolutely criminal.
 
the thing with Onana, something about his technique seems off. He seems flat/heavy footed at times. Plus there's that tendency to push shots back into the danger zone. those bad habits aren't going away.
Regardless of whether or not you think he's to blame for the goal in the final, I think he does put nerves amongst the defenders.
GK is a priority this summer
 
We should have tried harder for Raya instead of Onana. Raya is a solid all round keeper, suited to the prem, and would have been cheaper.

It all starts in midfield.

Easiest pass lost.
Easiest tackle missed.
Easiest cross not blocked.
Easiest clearance not attempted.
Easiest run not tracked.
Easiest save not made.

It's a shit goal no matter what way you look at it. Onana's effort was probably the least shit out of all the players involved in that goal.

Raya was the obvious choice, cost just over 30M and Arsenal had to do a loan with obligation whereas we were able to go for a straight purchase in that window as evidenced by wasting around 50M on this spoofer. Just think, we could have had a genuinely top class keeper and 20M for another signing but instead we had to get Erik one of his pets. I doubt we can find a buyer for Onana but he should be loaned to an easier league and we need to sign a decent replacement. You can get a goalkeeper who is at least competent at the basics without breaking the bank.
 
I was watching MUTF the other night and it had the Man Utd v Ajax EL final from 2017, lo and behold, Onana was in goal for them (didn't know he played for them so it was a surprise).

Even back then, he looked like a flappy bird, a calamity waiting to happen!

FYI we had Romero in goal for that game, I would take Romero back over this clown!
