We knew he was weak in several aspects of the game, but he has not even been good with the ball, which is supposed to be his strength.
So, why was he bought.

While Barthez made more glaring mistakes, Onana makes more in quantity and costly mistakes. I don’t think there’s any other goalkeeper in the league who makes as many mistakes as him. And some good performances cannot mask disasters like that.
I think he started really well this season, which is his second season. Barthez, if memory serves, had a settled back four in a team that knew completely what was required of them led by the greatest manager in the history of the game. If I had to choose between a peak Barthez and a peak Onana, I'd choose the latter every day of the week.
Shite.
He'd just won me over after I'd written him off and then he's immediately turned to shit again.
He's a clown and yet another terrible signing.

It's going to take a really long period of good goalkeeping, before I start trusting this guy again. Looks like a dud. Put in about a third of a season of solid performances before the mistakes crept back in.
Yep. I was just starting to,think he might be ok and since then he’s been absolutely useless.
Or.... also a foul
He's had some poor games recently, but what you're complaining about him not doing is very much what he had been doing this season.
My thoughts exactly. Move him on.
A bit weak for the goal, but also a bit impeded perhaps. I am more surprised that we haven't improved at defensive set pieces at all since we got rid of De Gea. That was one of the main things that bringing in a new goalkeeper should have improved on.
He’s absolutely shite. I’ve absolutely no confidence in the team with him in goals.
Even though it’s different keepers, to concede the same crap goal twice in just 7 days is really special.
Can't shake the feeling that since coming there is just more vulnerability. Very nice guy and has looked assured recently but overall, we have tanked. Seemed to take him a season to settle and look focused and agile enough. A better setup then yes, since we're up against it and United are a big scalp we needed a younger fitter commanding keeper.
I feel Amorim would like to swap him out but everywhere you look it's expensive write-offs.

Because of ETH
Need to move him on
Worst fears confirmed. One bad mistake followed by a series of others. Disaster. Looks like we need a new goalkeeper. FFS.
Sell in summer
We definitely need a new keeper
How on earth do you conceede more than one direct corner kick goal in your career, not just in few weeks? How is that even possible at professional level?
Even if he was our best player this season that is unacceptable.
Edit: my bad, I somehow remembered the Arsenal one as direct.

We have to get a new keeper in the summer. Soon as he makes a mistake he become a complete mess and you get a string of mistakes.
When was the other one?
Form's dipped since the Arsenal game
feck me, we have truly a disaster of Goalkeeper, one is worse than the other, sell in January.
This is our price to pay for the hubris with the De Gea contract situation. Of course Dave should be second choise, he was declining the last 2-3 years but Ten Hag really set us 30 years back with his fecking choices.
2 goals on 3 games from direct corner, omfg

My bad, I somehow remembered that he conceeded one against Arsenal. It was close, but not direct, but pretty close to direct in my defence, it went right through him without any reaction.
And another position we need to change
Keepers are thankfully far less expensive than outfield players.
Could we just pluck one out from Spain? They're all pretty much good on the ball (unlike Onana who was supposedly brought in for that reason), and I'd wager it wouldn't be hard to find one who's also a decent at not conceding directly from corners.

Yep - this sums it up.
His save for the Strand Larsen header was hilarious, you could see the look of disgust on Maguire’s face that he tipped that over for a corner instead of catching it or at least parrying it before saving.
He’s a joke of a keeper but we need so many positions that he’s just tolerated for the time being but no serious person views him as reliable option long term.

Nah. Trust is gone for me, I don't give a f**k if his next 30 games are perfect, I won't ever fully trust him.
But let's face it, what are the chances of him going 30 games without any howlers?!
He better get used to it now cos every corner or free kick we concede is coming down on top of him.
Because most of the transfer logic under ETH was have you played under him or played in the Dutch league. The worst thing is the clown could have signed Gakpo, Gravernberch, Timber and Kudus, who all would have been better.
Inter were laughing at us because they signed a better goalkeeper on the cheap. Yes, Sommer was older, but as there were not many world class GKs about, we could have signed him on the cheap and waited for a few years.
Next summer, Liverpool will have 3 GKs who are better than our current number 1.
As far as I can remember, Barthez had a good first season, and a shite second season and beyond.
At least at all times, he looked like an athletic keeper, despite his limitations of size
Onana started the season well.But there's always that element of him being too heavy and slow to get down etc
Hags killed us man.
Perhaps the reason him and Bayindir are so fecking hopeless on corners is because there’s no fecker in training who can beat the first man.
I trust a vampire at crosses more than I do Onana. Horrible keeper!
That's the bit I don't get. How are you going to let people just sidle into your six and dominate you like that? Knees and elbows out, maybe a surreptitious rake down the Achilles. They need to know if they come into your six, they're going to get bruised. Let's see if the ref has the balls to call that. But how can you just sit there and take it?
Is it too much to ask for a big fecker of a goalkeeper who is solid, can catch the ball and command his box?
At corners we r 2 men down with him n Martinez.
One and a half seasons in, and he's just not good enough. Another dud.
Funnier that you see people on here saying “what a save” and the likes. Literally every premier league keeper should be saving that, I think so many of his saves that look good are really just routine that he’s made look harder than they were.
He’s useless, he’s always been a bit useless. He’s always made mistakes. He held it together at Inter for a year and they took us to the cleaners, literally anyone who watched him a few times could see this one coming a mile away, unfortunately we’ll have to get a cheap replacement cause we’ve too many other problems to fix. We’ll do well to get half that £50m back for him
