Is this compared to when DDG bothers to attempt a save rather than just giving up on itI know he's good with his feet but what about his shot stopping abilities? Is he on par with DDG?

More likely to happen than not i think. Thank you DDG but it's 100% time to move on. I'm sure he realises this as well. It makes total sense to part ways now. And he can get a decent contract as a free agent.Is this happening then??
He's absolutely miles better than DDG in every way right now and one of the best GK's in Europe. He'd be an enormous upgrade. I'm not sure who is even attainable at that price that's better? Maybe Costa has more potential but he still looks shaky as hell and is more of a risk.Very underwhelming signing. Suspended for a year, expelled from the WC squad and has quite a few howlers in him.
Yes, he's better with his feet than De Gea but that's about it.
Is he though or has everyone seen him play half decent in the CL final and made their mind up? He was available for free not long ago I didn’t see a queue of clubs trying to sign him.He's absolutely miles better than DDG in every way right now and one of the best GK's in Europe.

Well, he must have had a magical year at Inter then, because at Ajax he wasn't, at all.He's absolutely miles better than DDG in every way right now and one of the best GK's in Europe.

Before or after his suspension and not getting along with the hierarchy of the team, Overmars etc? Because prior to the suspension he was amazing already.Well, he must have had a magical year at Inter then, because at Ajax he wasn't, at all.
We we are well prepared because of De Gea , I believe we will survive .Hope our fans are prepared cause he will drop a few clangers.
I remember Memphis Depay came here with a lot of swag too.This will be either brilliant or disastrous. He has the cockiness required to deal with the pressure at Utd but equally if he gets sidetracked and stop trying like his last Ajax season then we might have to play Heaton(!).
Let’s just say all of those points, De Gea is terrible at. So it can only be an improvement.Before people go on about his passing (again), I'd like to ask how are his other goalkeeping skills? Is he dominant in the air? Is he brave to collect crosses? How is he in penalty shootout...etc?
I've seen him play weekly and he was never amazing imo. He was frequently heavily criticized by Ajax fans and when it was clear he was going to Inter he just didn't care anymore. His attitude was terrible. I watched a Dutch football show and they called him 'poison in the dressing room'. I'd prefer someone with a bit better attitude tbh. He was sent home from the World Cup and retired from international football too. Red flags everywhere.Before or after his suspension and not getting along with the hierarchy of the team, Overmars etc? Because prior to the suspension he was amazing already.
We’ve been conditioned well for a number of years now.Hope our fans are prepared cause he will drop a few clangers.
Just finally having a proactive keeper will be a breath of fresh air.Hope our fans are prepared cause he will drop a few clangers.
And people who have seen him play in 2 CL games hype him up.You know the transfer is close when people start to find any weakness he has and exaggerate it.
Yet, against any sane logic, the same manager that this happened under wants to sign him for one of the biggest clubs in the world. Not saying you are wrong, it's just peculiar that EtH is willing to disregard all of those things.Is he though or has everyone seen him play half decent in the CL final and made their mind up? He was available for free not long ago I didn’t see a queue of clubs trying to sign him.
His character is that if a fecking dipshit and he seems to constantly be in trouble and then there’s the drug thing. Nah feck that the potential is with Costa hes worth the extra money.
You’re just seeing compilations from his time at Ajax against Go Ahead Eagles and making assumptions. How many clangers did he make in the Champions League where he helped Inter reach a final?Hope our fans are prepared cause he will drop a few clangers.
Thats meAnd people who have seen him play in 2 CL games hype him up.
I have no issue with that I just have a lot of Ajax supporting mates, have watched them a lot too and Ajax fans ran him out of the club because of attitude problems and terrible performances. Every opinion countsThats me
Actually I only really saw him in the final and I thought he was outstanding
I'll just address this since I see a few people here have mentioned it already. The reason why he was expelled from Cameroon NT at the WC was his disagreement with Rigobert Song, the (clueless) manager, who presumably took issue with Onana's goalkeeping style asked him to change for a more conservative style. News from the team camp at the time was that Onana didn't agree about the manager criticising his style, they got into a heated exchange during a training session and they fell out as he was asked to leave the squad immediately.Very underwhelming signing. Suspended for a year, expelled from the WC squad and has quite a few howlers in him.
Yes, he's better with his feet than De Gea but that's about it.
Meh I'll take that since we're already accustomed to the monthly De Gea clanger - and thats without the ball playing ability or willingness to come out of his box.Hope our fans are prepared cause he will drop a few clangers.
And going off the past fees we have paid for players who have been flops, this is an absolute steal. If he fails, it's hardly like spending 50m on Fred or 80m on Sancho.Inter want €50 million and we want to pay €40 million so €45 million is likely to be the mark so that’s something like £38.5 million which could be a massive bargain, he was arguably the best keeper in the CL and one of the best across Europe last season.
Yeah, but the other camp grows in numbers the closer we get to a transfer.And people who have seen him play in 2 CL games hype him up.
Not sure about that. When you have vultures circling around waiting for that mistake..given the **** following DDG has. Just look how big of a deal media made out when Antony tried to have some fun when the game was pretty much over.His confidence on the ball will be a massive help when beating high presses.
He's gonna make mistakes but it'll be worth it for what a goalkeeper like that can bring to the team.
For a team that struggled with the buildup this is exactly what we need. We’ve needed a manager prioritising these facets of the game for ages. Really hope it happens. He’ll just have to work on crosses etc if he does come.I thought the same till I saw thisTweet

On the pitch. Depay never expressed the same kind of arrogance on field as Onana.I remember Memphis Depay came here with a lot of swag too.
I’d rather De Gea left altogether if I’m honest as he’d still want at least £200K a week to stay which is more than any other keeper in the league, he simply doesn’t fit how ETH wants to play and De Gea playing would be the same as when we play Maguire which means our whole set up is all over the place.And going off the past fees we have paid for players who have been flops, this is an absolute steal. If he fails, it's hardly like spending 50m on Fred or 80m on Sancho.
If we sold Henderson for 15 to 20m and bought Onana for 40m then that's a bit of decent business. Would also like DDG to stay on as no2. Would ensure Onana is kept on his toes to perform.
