André Onana | signed for United | On a flight to NYC

[JPRouve]

i never feel comfortable with a left-footed goalkeeper between the sticks. they don’t push off correctly and it often means they concede goals that right-footed keepers save.

I wonder how good they are against left footed penalty takers.

 

[Bowlcut11]

I'm hearing he is getting his left arm amputated as well.

No, I think his left arm goes to AFCON for 6 months of the year or something

 

[Sir Erik ten Hag]

I don’t think Ten Hag expected De Gea to be that bad.

Ouch.

 

[Redplane]

Can we please please please now go and get a centre forward. It was disgrace not to have one last season - to stretch that to a second is totally unacceptable.

Would be nice to make one phone to Levy just to make sure he won't sell to us. I do get the feeling Kane would prefer to say in the PL

We ll get Kane and I'll die on that hill.
...well not really because I still have time to live. Unlike Onana who clearly is winding down.

 

[Lyng]

Worried about this signing, he isn't as good of a shotstopper as DDG and DDG also knew the league well. So Onana needs time to settle in, think it could take him like 2 seasons to adjust and at this point he will be almost 30. And when you hit 30 your body naturally declines, so we won't ever get the best out of Onana.

Should have signed him on a free last season.

The best team in the league is City and he was absolutely fantastic against them in the final.
He is a great signing and he knows Ten Hag and the playing style already.

Onana the Man:





I dont give shit!!!

Seems to have a good head on his shoulders and a strong belief in himself.

He will need it because they will inevitably try to destroy him at this club. They always go for our keepers. Easy targets.

 

[croadyman]

Fab news this, a modern keeper!

2 good signings so far this summer. Can't see anymore than a striker which is a pretty good summer I must say.

I can if we sell the likes of Henderson, Maguire and Fred/McTominay. I suspect Sancho & Martial will stay due to the wages they are on at Utd

 

[Kaizane]

Averaged 0 sprints and 0.5km distance covered per 90 minutes last season.

Is this the kind of keeper we want standing in our goal!!??

 

[croadyman]

I agree but we also need a better RB. I think Dalot is bang average in all honesty. Both him and AWB have looked to have one foot out of the door in the last couple of years but are still both here.

Could look at one in January,who do you think we should bring in who fits Erik's system

Tell me you never watched Inter last season without telling me you’ve never watched Inter last season.

Touché

Have we still not agreed a fee with Inter or?

What are his penalty save stats? Vs Dave's?

Someone broke it down a week ago or something. He is in the twenties somewhere percentage wise, above average. DDG started his career quite high, but dropped of massively a few years ago if I remember correctly. You can probably find the post if you search.

 

[NLunited]

What are his penalty save stats? Vs Dave's?

Better. 21% which is higher than average.

It probably go down on account of his cataracts and upcoming arm amputation.

Don't forget the walking frame.

Needs to bulk up

 

[NLunited]

Nice, great putting Edwin in there too.

Apparently we have been "inching closer" over the last few days

 

[Crackers]

How'd the plane tracking go?

 

[Apokalips]

Looks a great keeper. He seems to have a flaw though: stopping long range shots.

Pretty sure that was an initial supposed flaw of DDG when he signed, which led to teams just peppering us from 30-40 yards for his first few months to no avail.

That game against Spurs, i think it was, in his first season was hilarious. They must have taken 8 or 9 30/40 yard shots that didn't trouble DDG at all.

 

[PSV]

What are his penalty save stats? Vs Dave's?

Onana: 33 penalties faced, 4 penalties saved (12,12%), 3 missed.
Dave: 74 penalties faced, 11 penalties saved (14,87%), 3 missed.

Both rubbish.

 

[Grylte]

What's the average time between the "here we go" and players actually signing?

Loving his frankness in that interview

I found some but they went the wrong way.

It's obvious we bought him for shirt selling in Asia.

 

[ThinkTank@Cafe]

We just signed the best Playmaker GK in the world according to YouTube

Or first PGK ever?

 

[December_16]

This is the CAF, it'll be 50-50 most likely

Yes generally, but not for this thread. Just look at a few posts above this one to see how serious this thread has turned out to be.

Schmeichel throw out would argue was the first PGK (not just for us)

 

[dannyrhinos89]

I just hope he isn’t like Mendy was at Chelsea, he started well then fell off big time.

 

[Mickson]

I sat for an hour, with a hard-on, then the plane took an unexpected turn in Southampton. Shit happens. We go again.

Throwing is not enough for playmaking. This guy feints, holds the ball, wait for openings and pings an excellent pass right to AMC. Again, according to YouTube

Reckon he will fly in late today at earliest but more likely it will be tomorrow
