A proper proper upgrade on De Gea. Better on almost all metrics. There's not much between Onana and Costa either, and for 20M cheaper, I say go for him.
Onana vs Costa
Judging by the 240p frame quality, I'd say 09?
Andre Jesus Onana.
I don't know exactly what those aerial stats measure, but I struggle to take them seriously. It does specify aerial 'duels' so maybe it only counts if an opposition player is touching the keeper at the same time or something.

Going off that website somebody like Nick Pope is worse than De Gea in aerial duels, and Courtois is only slightly better.
As I seem to have to explain to someone every transfer window, odds are not set by the bookies on the likelihood of something happening, it's set by their liability management.
Mostly due to the fact that we are basically linked with 4-5 players with serious high-profile bids and us having a strict FFP-related budget - and not one of our outgoing players has received serious transfer bids yet, so we can't really afford all the players we are linked with atm without selling some first.
Don't get wound up at the club.
Can’t lose an aerial dual if you never get in one [insert meme pointing at head]I don't know exactly what those aerial stats measure, but I struggle to take them seriously.

It's not the United way. Use your brain cells and understand that newspapers churn out a lot of shit to get clicks.
But sometimes it's people in the know who are influencing the odds. When Gakpo signed for Liverpool, everyone was talking about us signing him, and then I saw that the odds on him joining Liverpool suddenly shortened to odds on, presumably when an insider bet on him joining Liverpool. There had not been a single link to Liverpool prior to that, so that is why I am nervous that someone close to Raya or Pickford knows something and has had a little flutter.
Isn’t he out of contract at the end of June?
Of course it's a possibility, but all it really means is where people have bet. It could be a massive 100k wager from someone in the know or 10000 10 quids thrown on after a rumour in the news. You've answered your own concern though, because both of them can't be joining, so why are both their odds so short?
Doh! Yes, shame.
Exactly. Ridiculous how much money we lose by letting players go for nothing. DDG should have been sold few years back and we let Pogba go on a free when we splashed 90m on him.
He is a donkey with the ball at his feet.
The Oracle has spoken. Get it done Murtough!!
