The ball from Onana was really poor. It was behind him. I don’t think he’s very good, but it looks a bit like people are dying to slag him off at times.
Because he is terrible.


Yeah, you’ve said.


I really dont think he is that bad and we come across as a bit spoilt here.  The other thing is he puts a shift in

I think it's a bit of both.  He does put a shift in, but so far his attacking contributions have been woeful.

Putting a shift in is what is normally expected at work.

It gets used all the time but I really hate the "putting in 100% is the minimum I'd expect" because virtually everyone who uses that argument has a very limited version of what 100% looks like and completely ignores the impact of confidence on performance.

Doing a job for the team despite knowing you're not playing how you'd like is a lot harder than fans seem to think and it is something that players deserve credit for.

Yeah, I'm not fan, but using that incident as an example is ridiculous. It was a shite ball.

I agree, it would've taken an exceptional bit of skill to bring that under control in a way that kept the move going. I saw an argument that it wasn't a good run but I don't think that's fair either, the only alternative would've been for him to pull wide and try to whip it in but a ball back to Onana would've been the only real option in that case. We did have someone else up there (can't remember who) but they were in an even worse position to try to get onto anything.

I don't think it was a poor ball, but he was in full sprint mode when he didn't really need to be in that situation.

But Onana can see the man in full sprint mode, so there's not much point in passing it where he did?

I feel for him. Not sure what’s happened to the player we scouted and the clips we’ve seen from France to the one who plays for us. I still can’t fault his effort.
Effort, he wanders around looking totally bewildered.
I am not sure you call that effort.
I do feel a little bit sorry for him until I think about how much he is getting paid.

I love that...bewildered. That is eaxctly right. I said a few weeks ago he runs around like he is in a daze.
