Glad Onana saved that pen, but was a pretty unconvincing save as far as they go. Nearly went through his arms! Still not convinced he's a half decent shot stopper.
wouldn't feel like home if there wasn't at least some negativity.

Hopefully that's the confidence boost he needs to start playing his own game.
Haha relentless
Huge huge moment for him, made a fantastic save earlier as well.
one thing I have noticed is he’s playing long a lot, wonder if it’s been a confidence thing or instruction, we know he’s quality on the ball so it’s strange.

Legend! 
Happy for him. I hope this gives him a lot of confidence.
It was. It’s nice to see a goalie dive the right way at least though.
Chuffed for him. Hopefully this kickstarts his United career. God knows we'll need him on Sunday.
Would be nice if the "worse than Taibi" brigade would take a breath before going in quite as hard on a new signing who's had a couple of bad games in future, but it's unlikely. Probably calling Mount worse than Bebe in his thread as we speak.

What an absolute Chad
Absolute legend
It seems he's instructed to go direct hence McTominay is playing further forward. EtH doesn't seem to trust certain players in the build up phase which is understandable due to certain players not being comfortable in confined spaces in the first phase of the build up. And as long as we carry on playing in such a way, McTominay as the most advanced midfielder will be an option.
Roy Keane is so proud.
No "De Gea would also have saved that pen" comments today?
Why would anyone say that sentence ever?
What I wonder more is why is he playing so deep. No sweeping, not even when we are camped in the opposition half. This just invites pressure on the CBs.
Having Varane and Maguire as the centre back pairing kind of rules out playing from the back as well. I bet things change a bit if/when Shaw and Martinez get back, although it sounds like that'll be in January or February.
Really happy for him, hopefully tonight is the making of him for us.
Decent game besides the penalty save in fairness. Kicking isn't quite as good as it was earlier in pre-season and especially against Arsenal but i think that's probably a confidence thing.
Hopefully this is the turning point for him. The celebrations with the players was really nice to see

You're correct I've noticed that myself. But the surprising thing is that at Ajax I saw him sweep up often, even in the Champions league.
He’s been building up to a match winning moment for a while now. Has steadily improved over our past 2-3 matches and today was very good even before winning us the match.
Agreed mate.
Shaw and Martinez are two of our best players in the build up phase. Their ability to progress the play under pressure is really good. I think we have a problem without those two players because we've lost a lot of ball progression with both players being out injured.
Have a feeling he was going to save it. He was very solid throughout the game. Pinged a few long passes directly to our forwards too.
2 fantastic saves
The real Onana finally stood up.
Pleased for him.
He needed that performance.

Damn he needed that. This will do him a world of good get some confidence back before the city game
That was a standard Onana performance in a United shirt. There was a few moments of De Gea-like long passing sailing straight out of touch including one moment where he is under no pressure, although in fairness struggling ro find a passing option besides the CBs, holds onto it for ages and then plays a shite pass. Biggest difference is he made some saves including the huge save at the end. I hope that helps his confidence and really kickstarts his United career.
Well done, earned his weeks wage with the penalty save.
Not even De Gea's mum pretends her lad can save spot kicks!
His sweeping is likely a casualty of the slowness of our defence, especially centre backs, at the moment. Should change when other defenders come back from injury.
Super happy for us and him.
Hopefully kicks on from here after that. There's a good goalie in there, and made a great save earlier on too
Gret technique flying outward to reduce the area. Great day for us and Onana.
