He made a few mistakes but he saved us more than he cost us today.
Made some decent saves but this palming it back into danger after a save is irritating but was highlighted by quite a few posters before we signed him. Needs to somehow iron that out of his game.
Is improving though, so onwards and upwards!
He saved Utd from an absolute battering today ….possibly his best performance so farHe is starting to show what he is capable of after a shaky start. He has been putting in good performances recently. Shame the defence in front of him is terrible but he was one of the few who seemed to actually care today.
It’s because our players just stand there and do nothing. We don’t play it wide anymore and we can’t keep the ball in the middle. I wouldn’t trust these players either.He's not playing out from the back at all, he just hoofs it every time. Not sure if he manager is telling him to keep it simple, but Burnley's new keeper plays out more than him right now.
Watch how many times Inter played through City using him in the Final and watch what he had to work with today. Embarrassing how poor we are and it is completely inexplicable. Genuinely what are we working on in training? There are 10 PL teams with inferior players who look far more assured playing out from the back than we do.He's not playing out from the back at all, he just hoofs it every time. Not sure if he manager is telling him to keep it simple, but Burnley's new keeper plays out more than him right now.
Think it's a combination of being told and the players in front of him. Think not having Shaw and martinez makes a difference. Our midfield however is the big issue as they don't move and make themselves available. He was poor, but at least Fred would try and show.He's not playing out from the back at all, he just hoofs it every time.

I've had my doubts but he was very good today. Hope it continues.
‘ Atrocious’He did make some very good saves but I thought he was atrocious on the second goal. Haaland’s header goes in the centre of goal about chest height. He dived past it and under it.
He dove past and under it. It was in the centre of the goal. If he puts it back post no problem but it was an awful attempt at saving it.‘ Atrocious’
it was a free header from 6 yards out, Onana was scrambling across and Haaland headed it the opposite way he was travelling, very few, if any keepers pull that save off for feck sake
You’re being overly harsh, could he have done better? Probably, was it atrocious/awful? Nowhere near it, he has a split second to decide which way Haaland is going to go, he guessed right in the first half resulting in a world class save. He didn’t this time but it’s 99% a goal in that situation. And watching it back he didn’t head it in the centre, he heads it the opposite way from Onana who’s moving from the correct position at the front post.He dove past and under it. It was in the centre of the goal. If he puts it back post no problem but it was an awful attempt at saving it.
