Are you trying to suggest that our defence has been good?I don’t fully understand the point here, but the fact that he’s been shite all season for United, and is now being shite for his NT points to it not being the teams at fault?

Our defense has been out injured! Johnny Evans has been good.Are you trying to suggest that our defence has been good?
Right. So my point was, the performances of the keeper aren't the only thing that matters when it comes to keeping a clean sheet. So people bringing them up to judge a keeper negatively or positively is generally useless.Our defense has been out injured! Johnny Evans has been good.
It’s the keepers job to keep the ball out of the net. Primary object number one. By definition a clean sheet is their job.Right.

He's not been rubbish all season either.
He’s weird though as he’s still running up to give advice to someone taking a free kick near the other area, if I seen that video right, so he’s not lacking confidence unless it’s all a stupid front.He's completely devoid of belief right now, I feel for him a bit.
I think he is a very confident person, but I don’t think he has confidence in his ability/game at the moment if you understand the difference I am trying to infer. I also agree it’s very sad to see it. I expected him to make mistakes through being cocky and stupid before he signed, I didn’t expect him to lack basic goalkeeping ability.He’s weird though as he’s still running up to give advice to someone taking a free kick near the other area, if I seen that video right, so he’s not lacking confidence unless it’s all a stupid front.
His technique of being a keeper just looks shit
That’s just doing my job and highlighting the clear agenda agaisnt him. If Allison did that would people even bat an eye…obviously not. It’s stupid to find fault in that and it’s reflective of this thread that every goal conceded is somehow his fault.From the BBC Sport match report -
Let’s see it? (Fully expect another goal nothing to do with him but I’ll concede if I’m wrong).feck me, that 3rd goal!

He’s not at fault for punching the ball back into play, and not away from the goal? He’s not at fault for literally presenting the opposing team with a goal scoring opportunity?That’s just doing my job and highlighting the clear agenda agaisnt him. If Allison did that would people even bat an eye…obviously not. It’s stupid to find fault in that and it’s reflective of this thread that every goal conceded is somehow his fault.
Gotta concede that is poor ffsLet’s see it? (Fully expect another goal nothing to do with him but I’ll concede if I’m wrong).
Isn't that already too late considering his age ?3rd goal showing his lack of technique yet again. He just doesnt take the right foot movement to get any sort of power on his dive. Literally just flopping slowly. Needs to spend the foreseeable future with a GK coach who just drills the basics in to him.
Good, he is poor.He will be knocked out and back for our FA Cup game. Bayindir will never get a match for us, ever.

At 52? Yeah, probably to be fair.Barthez is superior to this guy in every respect.
Pretty much a defences job as well, no? Neither is solely responsible for them.It’s the keepers job to keep the ball out of the net. Primary object number one. By definition a clean sheet is their job.
Yes there are other factors, and obviously some allowance is given if a defender is at fault, but the goalkeeper is the last and ultimate line of defense. If he is conceding goals then he isn’t doing his job. If the ball gets past him we are conceding goals, and too many times this season he has made mistakes to give away goal scoring opportunities, or made mistakes to allow the ball into his net. He hasn’t been good enough, by his own admission, so far this season.
I don’t understand why some posters have such a hard time admitting that when the guy has said it himself. He doesn’t need excuse after excuse, he can just be having a bad season, he can just be shite. I think he has time on his side, and currently a manager who backs him - but it’s worrying that he is poor for Cameroon too, I hoped he’d have a flyer and get back his confidence but that doesn’t seem how it will go.
He puts on a front to pretend to be confident but he is not. Psychologically he is struggling, he is mentally not cut out for the PL. He may improve his GK skills but I don’t think he is mentally cut out for it. He will go in next 1-2 seasons.
And in slow motionIt's like he's 5 seconds behind the play
Massimo Taibi would be proudChrist.

Genuinely confused as to how you watched the game vs Spurs and came out thinking "y'know, this game proves we should replace Onana". Was this the game that made you realise that he isn't going to transform our attack?Guys, we’ve got a problem at keeper which we’re well beyond be able to pretend isn’t a problem. I actually happen to believe that if given another season or maybe two at most that Onana will pull himself together as a average keeper we can rely on to perform the basic tasks of stopping weak shots, but until then we’ll just have muddle along dropping stupid points as we did v Spurs. After the AFCON is over he should retire from international football and focus on his club duties and commit himself to learning the goalkeeping fundamentals. In the meantime, let’s find a young keeper who slot in 2-4 years during which time he can be developed while we phase out Onana, who quite frankly has been a laughingstock for us, symbolic of everything that’s wrong with United right now.
