Amadou Onana

[Sexual Ealing]

They'd be gassy and taste like shit?

[Mister E]

Kamara could always play on the half turn, Onana can't. He's just not comfortable with the football which is a slight problem.

Yup; that's it.
I wondered before the Wulfs game whether we should be playing Onana as a 10, but in the end plumped for Luiz and Bogarde as the MF pivot and Barkley as the 10. In the event UE tried what he had been starting: Luiz and Onana, with Buendia and Sancho ahead of them.
I don't rate Onana particularly highly but he does have the physique to do more. Personally, I'd be trying to offload in the summer but we probably won't becasue we have other priorities for the exit door.

He has the physique. When focused he can use it to his advantage and did v Newcastle and Man City. In recent games, he's losing out on headers and tackles to guys a fraction of his size. Hasnt the heart, tactical awareness or technical ability.

Security services could do away with expensive 'black sites' and extraordinary rendition, just serve suspects lukewarm Carlsberg and they'd break in seconds.

[colin69]

Who at the club actually sanctioned the 50m we spent on him?

[Demitri_C]

50m for this guy. No wonder we havE FFP issues

[PeterWithesShin]

I'm back to the Baron love.

[curiousorange]

If he could turn out his pockets so we could finally pick up three points again, that'd be nice.

So frustrating - occassionally looks world class - but never really seems to be when we need him

Everton said the same about him - but he's 24 now and needs more consistency as he has been desperately disapointing in the last month when he needed to be at his best.

[Goldenballs]

A couple of great games, a few shit ones, injured.

Needed to step up and hasn't. A big fanny.

When he’s on form Onana is a good player but one thing he has never been is world class.

Of the highest order.
