Amadou Onana

[Percy McCarthy]

Cos every man and his dog has been banking on FFP unravelling us this summer.

Yet here we are strengthening.

Ahem.

I'm very happy with this he's a very good player.

Remember when the ‘big clubs’ would come calling for our players? That’s how Everton feel right now.

Yes indeed. We all remember after Barry, Young and Milner were taken we kept getting progressively worse. After Benteke and Delph left we became total dross and ended up with 17 points and relegation. If Everton lose Onana and Branthwaite  this season I can see the same end for them.

Onana: Unai's gonna love him - some bits from a piece on him in The Athletic

Onana watches footage back as soon as he gets home from a match, then does it again the next day, “just to see what I can do better”. He is a keen student of the game and is constantly looking at where he can improve.

He may prove unpopular with the other players asking, "Please Sir, can we have some more homework?"

Cracking Player, Only 22 and loads more room for improvement. Few season back Everton run in Onana singly kept them up he was that good ( Like Benteke was to us).
I'm Sure he look after Kamara spot until he fit again then we start seeing Onana full potential.
Well done to the Villa team getting him as the last time we was linked all the big clubs was after him thinking we lost out, But Emery once again has worked his magic.

From an Everton fan...

"I’ve said it plenty, Onana is a fine player but it’s his lack of application that’s his problem. It’s what makes him a sellable asset, a player we can sell and reinvest without weakening the team. It’s nothing to do with where he plays, he’s unreliable and that’s why he found himself on the bench at times.

When you see him go down injured and teammates surround him convincing him to stay on the pitch, when you read about him asking to come off at half-time in games you understand the issue. Now consider Branthwaite’s application.

I had big hopes for him last season but he was so disappointing. I have absolutely no issue with him leaving but we need an effective replacement".

As we fucked around the arse end of the table getting battering after battering until Nas pulled the plug on carpet head at Fulham, we could have made similar comments about most of our players. Lack of application, unreliable etc.

No that's true. Let's see what he performs like at a club on a different trajectory.

It's also pretty much word-for-word what Leicester fans were saying about Tielemans and how much they were glad to be rid of him.

If the only real complaint they have about Onana is that he couldn't really be arsed to put a shift in for Sean Dyche, I'm pretty sure that's not a complaint we'll have with him here and his effort for Emery.

very good mate of mine is Everton ST holder +30 years , he says this lad "will thrive in a decent side" . He's also happy with £50M .
Sounds a fair deal.

[Tuscans]

Feels like this is Monchis' N'Zonzi signing.

Very good comparison, that.

N'Zonzi is a fine player so hopefully .
