The commentators would have had a nightmare.

"The ball is with Onana, he plays it to Onana who passes it back to Onana. Oh Onana has been tackled, the attacker is bearing down on Onana whilst Onana is trying to get back. And it's a goal, Onana didn't save it, although it seems to have taken a wicked deflection off Onana, hit the bar, hit Onana on the back and went over the line, despite Onana trying to get back to prevent it."
Are you ok?

Oh, nah, nah not at all.

Onana has the same ball winning qualities of Kamara and can play a range of passes like Luiz.  The more I think about it, the more I like the signing.

I am very excited about the deal...

I'm so excited, I'm already an Onanist.

Well, pace yourself or you’ll not get to see him play!

Onana, given his size, is defensively a beast. His success/failure will be how good and confident he is at receiving the ball off the GK/CB.  Luiz and Kamara had their pockets picked a few times but they were brave enough to repeatedly demand the ball.  Onana must do the same.

I listen to the Blue Room & Royal Blue (Everton) podcasts every week, because the lads are articulate, intelligent and balanced. Several of the contributors are sanguine about it, and while disappointed, Onana is their preferred sale if one is needed to keep hold of Branthwaite, Pickford and Calvert-Lewin.

One contributor, Joe Thomas of the Liverpool Echo, is convinced he’s an £80m player, and another one is absolutely fuming they’re selling so cheap.

I think Calvert-Lewin has to prove himself this season, I'm surprised they wouldn't rather him go considering his injury record. Guess it's the problem of who they could bring in.

He’s got 12 months left, which they think means they wouldn’t get true value for him. They seem resigned to him leaving for nothing next year, but content as long as he helps them stay in the PL for the first season at the new ground,

I passed their new ground on the way to and from the Isle of Man on the ferry last week. It looks very impressive, and is in a great location on the banks of the Mersey.

Might be similar to the fact that Luiz would be a preferred sale over Martinez, Watkins and Pau for a lot of us. A brilliant midfielder but replaceable. Especially when Onana has spent a season watching the ball sail over his head for 90% of the match under Dyche.

During the commentary today, Ian Taylor let slip that Onana is having his medical today.  Hopefully, signs by Monday and gets into training quickly.
