Better than either of the Raya double saves the media have been wanking over for weeks now.
Still here!No haters today. I guess he did okay then.
UnbelievableGood game, double save was awesome (well the second one). He doesn't need to make that if he gets a better hand to the first one, that ball should be sent away off over to the side. Credit to him for having the reactions to cover for his error.
Unbelievable
Unbelievably true. I like him and think he's nowhere near as bad as people make out.
But his technique on that first save was poor, he palmed the ball back up into a dangerous area where he really should have got enough on it to push it away. It's standard goalkeeping. But that's what required him to have to make the second stop.
It's like a defender making a block to make up for a bad clearance, your just making up for an error. Might still be a great block, but it's still a recovery block. That's what Onana did, brilliant second save, but he doesn't need to do it, if he gets the first one right.
Good game again from him today.
Liverpool game aside, he’s improved a lot this season
Nah, completely disagree. The first save was a difficult save. Keeping it out was difficult enough. Expecting to keep it out and think about where the ball would go afterwards is unfair. It was an exceptional save. Even without the second save. Calling it an “error” is absurd.
How exactly is a GK supposed to clear it to outside when he jumps down to his left. I'm perplexed.Unbelievably true. I like him and think he's nowhere near as bad as people make out.

Nah the first shot was a powerful and well hit low shot, difficult to save and some keepers may have let it in. Now groundbreaking but a good save. Second save is absolutely exceptional.First save was good, it's a standard save, it just required a strong hand to push it out to the side, he got enough on it to do that. Hypothetical but if he doesn't make that second save he gets blasted for where that ball ends up after the first save.
Second save makes up for it.
There's been plenty of examples of a gk palming a ball out and not directly up ha.How exactly is a GK supposed to clear it to outside when he jumps down to his left. I'm perplexed.
I will wait for an example with a video of some others doing it.
Please help me with an example. I will make it clear - a GK from that position pushing the ball over the outline .There's been plenty of examples of a gk palming a ball out and not directly up ha.

Came to reply to the rubbish with this, thank you.It's one of those where the closer the ball is to the keeper, the harder it is to push wide.
The ones that get pushed wide tend to be where the keeper is at full stretch to reach it. Some times it's better for the strike to be closer to the corner so the keeper can just tip it round the post, but the risk is of course if it's in the corner the keeper may not reach it at all.
It's the same reason Raya pushed the ball back out for a rebound a few days ago rather than pushing it out wide.
Thought the same but was sure if I was being overly criticalGood game, double save was awesome (well the second one).

Absolute nonsense.It's requires a simple turn of the wrist, he got enough on it to palm it up in the air, he should have been able to turn it wide. If he doesn't make that second save he'd be getting bashed for how he dealt with the first save.
Absolute nonsense.
