De gea wasn’t a good shot stopper. He’d made loads of errors in the past 5 years. If de gea had faced the chances the team have conceded this year, he’d have conceded loads as well.
Well said. The players also play a huge part in clean sheets. Players might be terrible at receiving the ball, which makes the gk lose confidence in them
@teofitness1957 Terrible is an exaggeration He is average. Some of the conceded goals have been as a result of some shoddy defending He has his share of blame as well, though
I do not understand why people always end up being reasonable once everything is in shambles lol. People bashed De Gea and Kepa so hard when it was quite obvious it was not only them but also the defence letting them down consistently which led to a massive drop in confidence. The sympathy that Onana is getting right now could have been given to De Gea and United would have saved a lot of money.
@@HritikSrivastava-pd2rb precisely, literally a bunch of hypocrites. when i said the same last season with DDG, i was accused of not knowing football. suddenly all these clowns come out videos defending onana? literally double standards all the same points could have been used for DDG and we'd have a 47m replacement for casemiro instead
@@ssvegeto1610 I defended DDG last season aswell. He has been a great shot stopper for years but you have to also acknowledge that he doesn’t fit Ten Hags play style. DDG has shown that he’s not capable and confident enough to distribute the ball. If you also add in the miscommunication he had with Maguire, that led to so many avoidable mistakes. I’m definitely not blaming DDG for these mistakes, but with Onana you have a guy that plays long balls like a midfielder. Hopefully he doesn’t lose his confidence.
I think this video was pretty impartial though. It acknowledged Onana's strengths and how United's injuries have forced them to play a different style of football, thus worsening his weaknesses
I see what you're saying here with rotating keepers, Onana should be the preferred keeper when we have our most press-resistant players back in the team, whilst for now where we are under constant pressure we need De Gea to be that shot stopping keeper....oh...wait...!
I mean not sure where you've been, but there was like 5 big European clubs who needed keepers over the summer. No one picked him up because he wants insane wages and he's an old school keeper. Ppl hate on Onana, but once utd actually play the system he's what allows you to reach top levels. Traditional keepers can't do that anymore.
@@aduad If you knew anything about football you'd know that Real Madrid and Bayern Munich desperately needed a number 1. They saw De Gea was free but still chose Kepa and Ulreich. Says a lot. And do I need to remind you of his status in the Spanish national team as well?
Until his period after doping ban his shot stopping was pretty good at Ajax. Don't know where this narrative is coming from. He was weaker at collecting crosses and high shots on his left side. Specially his reflexive safes on the goal line were top class.
@@crayontom9687 The problem is that he has been about average to above average as a shot stopper most years, so it does feel a bit harsh to call him a bust before a half season has passed. He does clearly need to improve regardless.
We need a video about vicario, he is the best keeper in the prem statistically and the 2nd best according to my eyetest, how is he so good? Just came out of empoli for 18 million euros and he is absolutely magnificent
@@Favour500 You did not even pay attention , Vicario stats were very good for Empoli for the past two seasons in a struggling Empoli side. I have been impressed with his passing skills with his feet.
DeGea had an unsettling start in his time at Man U. But he became very reliable as the years went by. That being said, even he still made some errors, which resulted in some soft goals. Time will tell if Onana improves.
@@DynamicGuy123 I hear you on that. But of course, there's no magical age for good performances for any position on the Field. Iker Casillas became the #1 Keeper at Real Madrid, at the age of 18.
the bottom line is the only way that he has improved United is by reducing their wage bill and this has been as a trade off from awful goal keeping......If United had "fixed" their defence then their would have been no need to "fix" their goalkeeper. An awful decision made by Ten Hag. Investing United's limited resources in an area that was not the real issue.
It feels like a pretty big oversight that I can watch a video that recommends rotating Manchester United goalkeepers and come away not knowing the name of their second keeper, let alone their playstyle or strengths and weaknesses.
You just reminded me of David. We're playing like David is still in goal to make those worldie saves like he used to and then make his regular mistake. With onana we have to change our approach, especially with passing options to the keeper and onana himself needs to step outside that box more, I know he's short on confidence but he needs to attack the attackers more and own the 18 yard, he's too passive and that's why the he makes contemplations, literally 50/50 gambles, and so far he's failed at them.
All the build up play and offensive upsides are extras. The first order of business of goalkeepers is stopping goals. If you're being prone to letting in unnecessary goals, it doesn't matter even if he IS doing the offensive distribution perfectly.
@@EuanM20XSancho, onana, wilf zaha, Maguire, Memphis depay, Alexis Sanchez, falcao, di maria, schweinstiger, Daniel James, lindelof, pogba, Marcos rojo, victor valdes, van de beek, Antony, Morgan schneiderlin, martial
If i may put it in simple terms, as we know that the primary purpose of a goalkeeper is to save shots and avoid goals, i can with confidence say that David de gea would save atleast half of the goals onana has conceded. So, long story short he's not a better keeper that de gea who united should have never let go, even with his occasional mistakes he had been saving united single handedly for a long time. As a rival fan I'll be happier with onana in goal than de gea, becaus even at his best onana is an average shot stopper (forget about his ball playing ability), but when de gea is in mood its almost impossible to put the ball past him in the goal. Thats my honest opinion.
As a casual fan, I don't remember anything about his shot-stopping at Ajax or Inter, 2 teams that made it deep into UCL the years he was starter. Playing for either Manchester club, he's gonna have a critics on him at all times. I think once United is back healthy, he'll regain confidence in distribution and therefore shot-stopping. He did have some very nice saves in the Brentford game.
When Onona signed I watch a video of all the shots he faced for Inter, he's a mediocre shot stopper and he concedes weird goals. But he can pull out the odd worldie that doesn't make sense. He also seems to hesitate to go down/not go down at all, and that might be because he was an outfield player originally. Onana is a luxury keeper and one that United can't afford to have right now. Good debut from this kid, I like the fact he wears glasses they make me respect his opinion more.
@@sillwuka It makes you wonder why United didn't bring in a young keeper to develop and rotate him with Henderson who while not spectacular at anything is a decent shot stopper and long passer. It would have been cheaper and allowed for more time to find an ideal keeper if one exists.
Actually I cannot fault those examples. Goalies should never give up their near post - it’s a cardinal sin. He protected his near side as that is the quickest and easiest route to goal in each one of those examples.
The near post thing is an absolute myth. Completely archaic. If you look at clips from like the 70s the keepers stand at the near post and leave the whole rest of the goal open which looking back now is absolutely ridiculous. Other keepers are able to prevent goals going in at the near post and not concede ridiculous goals like onana by over committing. It's lazy goalkeeping, he's trying to cheat.
The goalkeeper's job is to prevent as many goals as possible, not to specifically prevent near post goals because everyone would agree that those were his fault while rolling out the red carpet to his far post.
I think Onana might just be Pepe Reina light. I think one of the biggest problems for Onana is that Manchester United biggest rivals have 2 best goalies in the league and possibly world, and both came in and bossed it from day one and looked worth every penny what the team paid for them. Chelsea tried it and got burned BIG time, and Kepa never really recovered. Onana is much more experienced and accomplished but with move and play he does being overanalyzed, there is a chance he might follow the same path.
Nobody is gonna question if it ‘is ‘ the wrong video guy, cos some of us can remember the JJB video where he waxes lyrical about the transformative effect that Onana would have on the team. It was all; “oooh Onana is gonna be able to push up between the centre backs and act like an extra CB and ‘oooh Onana is gonna be able to find a player anywhere on the pitch cos he’s basically Pirlo and Neuer in one !’ Funny, how I can’t find that video now 🤔
I think it was Peter Schmeichel that pointed out Onana was often jumping up before dropping down rather than lunging out towards the ball. This has resulted in a couple of errors where he let the ball go right under his hand. It seems like there is some fundamental technique that is causing his shot stopping errors.
That's the idea, but I'm not convinced Arteta will actually follow through and rotate them, pretty sure that was just some fluff to ease the transition to Raya. Interesting to hear what De Zerbi's up to though, I didn't know he was also on that train
His shot stopping has looked sub-par so far but there is only so much a keeper can do in build-up considering Varane and Casemiro are terrible at playing out from the back. They constantly move the ball around in the back third, don't get into better positions to receive the ball and give it away cheaply. All this invites pressure on the defence. Lisandro Martinez is United's only good ball-playing defender and has been injured this season.
As I said when he was first rumored to United… keepers like Alison, Neuer and Ederson are freak examples. I don’t buy into the whole sweeper, ballplaying goalkeeper. Sure, to squeeze a bit of extra juice and you’ve two equally skilled goalkeeper and one can sweep and the other cannot, take the sweeper… but in the end of the day, the fundament and the top of the hierarchy for any goalkeeper should be your ability to shotstop. Sure, you an screen and mitigate chance and perhaps even create, but how many of those ball playing moves are going to be converted to goals? You’re mitigating 3 chance, but once a ball hit a target, you don’t have the ability to stop the shot. Ultimately your objective is to prevent the ball going in. No goalkeeper has the talent to be on the pitch on a professional other than GK. Likewise no other players can play goalkeeper at a professional level. You can have a GK being good at mitigating but the shoots will come eventually at the rate in which you mitigate won’t line up in that equation in the end. Sweeping and ballplaying keepers is a nice little addition, can be potent but it cannot be on the expense of traditional GK quality. I never fancied Onana as a goalkeeper on the biggest level. The first two games for United, he was the best player on the pitch, and I hope he were proven me wrong and I was optimistic. He’s now one of the worst goalkeepers, but it’s important to consider that changing a goalkeeper is a fundamental groundbreaking switch you can do to a lineup. It takes longer than any other positions to get right. Many starts shaky. I think it’s horrible at the moment, and even though I don’t fancy him as a GK, I still believe this is way under his level and he needs more time to settle in, hopefully he’ll get into it… but this was too soon to let go of De Gea. One more year… and I don’t for the life of me get, why United didn’t go for Donnarumma when he was a free agent.
I honestly think it was disrespectful they let De Gea go after a golden glove season. I won’t even go into the “he made errors” arguments because Onana has been actually worse!!
I see what you mean by rotating keepers, but there’s no way united bought him just to be rotated. He was talked up as a “one size fits all” solution as you mentioned and compared to Alisson and Ederson.
Don’t even need to watch the video. There’s one keep we scouted relentlessly that was first choice. Glazers wouldn’t stump up the cash, fall back they panicked and asked Ten Haag who he wanted who was cheaper. Ten Haag shouldn’t be in no charge of recruitment. That’s not how modern football works, but as we all know, United have spent 18 years operating like it’s 2005.
6:20 "The plan has been interrupted by the injuries United have had. Hojlund out injured. Mount out injured. Jadon Sancho...just doesn't play football anymore."
It’s not an Onana problem, it’s a Ten Hag problem. You can’t ask a guy to stop playing his way and instead to completely limit his skill set to pass to the CB’s and staying in his box. He can be United’s Manuel Neuer but Ten Hag has to trust him and I don’t think Ten Hag is the manager that trusts anybody and instead, like Guardiola, is a meticulous man-manager where either you play the way the manager says or you get dropped and sold.
If I had to guess the intensity of pressing is higher in the Prem + low confidence leading to trying to play safer causing further errors. Raya was available for 40m even with United tax.
If United bought Raya and he would face similar problems and make similar mistakes, I bet you would be the first one to whine about not buying Andre Onana.
Over analysing something that is quite simple: he lost faith in his skills, he is unsure on what he needs to do, he came to MU and there is no leadership.
De Gea is the reason that I love football. The reason I support United. To have a club legend like that,last years prem golden glove winner, replaced by a keeper who can’t keep a clean sheet to save his life. He was supposed to be one of the best at distribution but a drunk De gea could pass better than him at the moment. No hate to Onana, but I knew this would happen. We all knew deep down, that De gea couldn’t be replaced. I’m proud to call him my number 1.
@@jgmediting7770 Again what do you mean? He was at the club for 10 years as a number 1 throughout. If that isn't someone at least worthy of a send off and some respect I don't know what is. Tell me specifically why I am deluded, I genuinely want to know.
For goalkeeping ability, he will always be compared poorly against De Gea, the last of his breed and the best shot stopper in the world bar none. Other keeper's miracle save is De Gea's routine, what is "can't do anything about it" to other keeper is a blunder for De Gea. For people and fans to expect Onana to match De Gea in shot stopping from the get go is ludicrous. The thing is, I notice and like how fast Onana is in coming off the line, and while it hasn't come to fruition we can already see how great his distribution is, and now I no longer have a mini heart attack when the goalkeeper has his feet on the ball. All in all, Onana is needed for the kind of football United and Ten Haag wants to play... next is whether the players in front of him can play the way Ten Haag wants.
The real question is: has Manchester United done ANYTHING right in the transfer market since 2013? Honestly at this point it's looking like an actual curse. Randomly buying players or going by Football Manager wonderkids would have probably had far better success rate than United have had in the last decade.
I enjoyed this analysis. The initial patterns in 23-24 - playing out - were SO clear and such a drastic change for the squad from work with DDG, it seemed at once a big improvement but led to a worry (for me) of far too much overreliance on the new slow and intricate methods. Then BAM!, injuries to the back line & a growing lack of confidence as the masses want to jump on the new guy's back. The sub keeper is also great at the new playing out methods, but like Onana might not approach DDG as a shot-stopper. I think the best idea is to press on and SUPER DRILL that defence to adapt. When I see City's ultra-disciplined players in comparison, it almost makes one weep: tirelessly creating space to receive passes
Very good analysis and an interesting argument at the end in favour of rotating your keeper. I've always been against it but maybe selecting a short pass keeper like Steele and Ramsdale for specific opponents is the way football will go
I dont understand why you wouldn’t rotate GK accordingly, it’s just dumb to not asses the other team and choose a shot stoping gk or a progressive passing gk if the team ur facing is not attacking forward or whatever. I’m not versed here but it’s been annoying me that noone does this. You rotate every other player when they are not working, rotate ur GK as well if it’s not
Let me put this straight and as bluntly as possible. A GK's primary job is to SAVE goals. Everything he does with his feet in buildup is a nice to have. We have had too much of 'oh, he can pass blah blah blah'. I am patient with him though, he can improve as DDG did after his initial struggles. But please stop defending him with his ball playing skills.
Which is how he got to the champions league, because he's a terrible goalkeeper. Let's not pretend internet rent-a-mouths were happy with DDG's shot stopping. By your metric, man utd haven't had a gk in a very long time.
At Ajax he often made weird and risky choices. Not just with his passing but also with his shot stopping. With United however those moments happen more frequently because those dangerous moments are forced more by the opponents. The Ajax he played for was a lot more dominant than the current United. I think Onana would perform on his Ajax level if he for example played for City. But he still wouldn't be as good as Ederson or Alisson. He'd still have that risky factor in his game.
Sanity check on your goalkeeper PSxG model: This data says the keepers in this sample have on average conceded 11% fewer goals than expected. That's a huge deviation from the 0 to the slightly above 0 (only counts keepers with 500+ mins so you'd expect a slight skew away from 0) you'd expect, and the total sample size is large enough to expect small errors if the model is good (187 total PSxG). From this I conclude that this model likely isn't good enough to be used for any good level of analysis.
united didn't buy onnna for is stop stopping, okay then let him play CB, we've bought him for his ability on build up play. Absolute on point analysis.
This is like if you don't make a mistake in areas you're strong in then you shouldn't be blamed. With this logic I don't see why people slam TAA almost every week for failing to defend certain situations. If you're a gk, you know what is your primary duty.
De Gea hasn't been the best in years. If you watched him every week you saw he was making similar errors to Onana now, but last season we had Martinez and Varane available together and they contributed to the Golden Glove win more than De Gea's saves.
De Gea was 21 when he came. He was only promising young prospect. Nobody was sure would he fit in. But the way Onana was hailed by all ManU fans and how De Gea was sent away one would expect miracle around the keeper's box.
Allison's only weakness if we're talking about distribution is those mid-long range passes. He's got a great throw and drop kick, he's assisted a few times with these but he doesn't always pull off lobbed passes. That being said I believe he's the best keeper in the PL. His short passing is fine and confident but a goalkeeper like Onana is probably one of the best at picking out a player at range with his feet.
So Brighton and De Zerbi have been more aggressive with rotating goalkeepers this season, but yet Arteta gets the constant questions and criticism regarding goalkeepers smh
You said exactly what me and a few others have been saying in comment sections that other fans are finally waking up to. Goal keeper was never the priority this season. We still have way too many problems with the outfield to accommodate a keeper like Onana. I think if we ever get fit we'll see improvement that's looking like a big if. Now we have to not shatter his confidence while we hold the rest of the team together with duct tape
I was screaming from the same hymn sheet, this season we did not need to go out and get a keeper, the team has not yet evolved into Erik Ten Hags style of play. We should have persevered with De Gea for one more season, focused funds on the outfield players, then went and got Onana next season when we had evolved into a solid team both out of and in possession.
@@amirdiabe So overpay De Gea for five seasons when you only need one season, sounds smart. I think if it was an in house option it should have been Henderson who screamed low risk high reward 1 year stopgap on reasonable wages. I don't disagree that midfielders and the defense should have gotten more investment, alongside paying for Hojlund and maybe a backup or rotation option for him.
@@phightinphil25 De Geas contract was done, we could off offered him a 1 year contract on half his wages. Dropped from 250k to 125k. And we would of probably went and got Onana for much cheaper. Alternatively we could of also given Matej Kovar a chance before letting him go. He played well for reserves last season, and done well in pre season. The funds spent on Onana could of made a bigger difference in our outfield squad
@@amirdiabe De Gea didn't want 180k per week so he was never going to take 125k. Why do you think he hasn't signed for anybody else yet ? Kovar wasn't ready to start yet but him and Henderson would have cost nothing and been adequate for a year or two.
I hate modern footbal so much. Guy is talking about "he isnt a bad keeper just because he cant save his goal he can pass the ball good", Bro let him play midfield then. WTF is wrong with managers and people to think this is okay. 💀
Yeah... I'm not football saavy but choosing a GK because he's better with his feet makes no sense. What is the main job of a GK? Stopping goals or building attacks? When push comes to shove its his hands that will save the day, not his play ability
Shows how confident he is from his defense. Yes, he's made mistakes but lets not forget this guy was playing the ucl final months ago. AND had a great game..... What has changed? The defense in front of him. So why the mistakes? He is not confident, bc Man U doesnt really ooze confidence right now at any level. Then they complain why the players are not working.... maybe they need to fix the dressing room before blaming new acquisitions.
The goal from Galatassaray wasn't a mistake lol. Bit of a reach there. No keeper in the world saves that. The mistake was his kicking that got Casemiro sent off.
I think he meant "excepting injury, form, and personal issues" I mean, this never actually happens in work or football ot life, but I think that's what he was getting at.
It could just be Onana getting used to Prem football the same way most new players do except as a keeper, you don’t get any leniency for not being ready and you get killed whereas when you’re a striker, people can often say soon you’ll be putting the ball into the net. The issue is with the build up because Ten Hag has Onana playing the wrong style of build-up. I have no idea why Ten Hag doesn’t let Onana just send the ball to the attack or midfielders and why he makes him just pass it out because he didn’t buy him to just pass it or throw it 5 yards. It’s a mixture of not being ready yet and not being able to play the football he wants to play. A mix that can make a nightmare for Onana.
The goalkeeping coaching standards is really good in united if not the other coaching standards, we shld see him improve alot slowly, he just needs time
weird to say Onana wasnt a good shot stopper since he had a PSXGP of 7+ in the champions league last season which is mind boggling and he had solid numbers for ajax. also weird to talk about his passing and then use the season at inter where he used that attribute the least in his career
People forget that his form at Inter was due to the fact that he shielded by Bastoni, Acerbi, and Skriniar/de Vrij...by FAR, Serie A's best defense line. Brilliant video, as always ⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽

Exactly, You have to save the shots in order to distribute them. If you don't save shots as a GK then I guess you don't need to distribute.
De gea wasn’t a good shot stopper. He’d made loads of errors in the past 5 years.
If de gea had faced the chances the team have conceded this year, he’d have conceded loads as well.

@@HritikSrivastava-pd2rb precisely, literally a bunch of hypocrites. when i said the same last season with DDG, i was accused of not knowing football. suddenly all these clowns come out videos defending onana? literally double standards all the same points could have been used for DDG and we'd have a 47m replacement for casemiro instead
@@ssvegeto1610 I defended DDG last season aswell. He has been a great shot stopper for years but you have to also acknowledge that he doesn’t fit Ten Hags play style. DDG has shown that he’s not capable and confident enough to distribute the ball. If you also add in the miscommunication he had with Maguire, that led to so many avoidable mistakes. I’m definitely not blaming DDG for these mistakes, but with Onana you have a guy that plays long balls like a midfielder.
Hopefully he doesn’t lose his confidence.
I think it’s too early to write him off yet if you remember almost all United number 1s had a shaky start to their career at the club
It's not
De gea was 20 in his first season at United
I think this video was pretty impartial though. It acknowledged Onana's strengths and how United's injuries have forced them to play a different style of football, thus worsening his weaknesses
I see what you're saying here with rotating keepers, Onana should be the preferred keeper when we have our most press-resistant players back in the team, whilst for now where we are under constant pressure we need De Gea to be that shot stopping keeper....oh...wait...!
Good thing that De Gea found a new club.....oh..wait..!
@@RoyaleWithCheese. Could you imagine Man United begging De Gea to come back to the team? That would be hilarious! 😂
@@RoyaleWithCheese. tell me a big club that needed a permanent keeper.....oh wait!
I mean not sure where you've been, but there was like 5 big European clubs who needed keepers over the summer. No one picked him up because he wants insane wages and he's an old school keeper. Ppl hate on Onana, but once utd actually play the system he's what allows you to reach top levels. Traditional keepers can't do that anymore.
@@aduad If you knew anything about football you'd know that Real Madrid and Bayern Munich desperately needed a number 1. They saw De Gea was free but still chose Kepa and Ulreich. Says a lot.
And do I need to remind you of his status in the Spanish national team as well?
Until his period after doping ban his shot stopping was pretty good at Ajax. Don't know where this narrative is coming from. He was weaker at collecting crosses and high shots on his left side. Specially his reflexive safes on the goal line were top class.
The narrative is coming from the fact that he’s thrown three goals in his own net in only 8 games
lmao
@@crayontom9687 The problem is that he has been about average to above average as a shot stopper most years, so it does feel a bit harsh to call him a bust before a half season has passed. He does clearly need to improve regardless.
We need a video about vicario, he is the best keeper in the prem statistically and the 2nd best according to my eyetest, how is he so good? Just came out of empoli for 18 million euros and he is absolutely magnificent
Losing him has crippled Empoli though!
He as only played 8 games. Relax
@@Favour500 You did not even pay attention , Vicario stats were very good for Empoli for the past two seasons in a struggling Empoli side. I have been impressed with his passing skills with his feet.
@@Favour500 You ain't got the answers, you ain't got the answers 😂😂
who's first?
DeGea had an unsettling start in his time at Man U. But he became very reliable as the years went by.
That being said, even he still made some errors, which resulted in some soft goals.
Time will tell if Onana improves.
De gea also didn’t come in at 27 lol
De Gea always had a few clangers in him
@@DynamicGuy123
I hear you on that. But of course, there's no magical age for good performances for any position on the Field. Iker Casillas became the #1 Keeper at Real Madrid, at the age of 18.
Thing with your statement is it's man utd without sir alex.
I believe ten hag will bring back man utd to prominence only if Glazer's are out.
@@DynamicGuy123 yeah and De Gea was ushered into a very strong united team at the time
the bottom line is the only way that he has improved United is by reducing their wage bill and this has been as a trade off from awful goal keeping......If United had "fixed" their defence then their would have been no need to "fix" their goalkeeper. An awful decision made by Ten Hag. Investing United's limited resources in an area that was not the real issue.
I’m here after that penalty save to you no. He’s a good keeper, just needed confidence!
It feels like a pretty big oversight that I can watch a video that recommends rotating Manchester United goalkeepers and come away not knowing the name of their second keeper, let alone their playstyle or strengths and weaknesses.
You just reminded me of David. We're playing like David is still in goal to make those worldie saves like he used to and then make his regular mistake. With onana we have to change our approach, especially with passing options to the keeper and onana himself needs to step outside that box more, I know he's short on confidence but he needs to attack the attackers more and own the 18 yard, he's too passive and that's why the he makes contemplations, literally 50/50 gambles, and so far he's failed at them.
All the build up play and offensive upsides are extras. The first order of business of goalkeepers is stopping goals. If you're being prone to letting in unnecessary goals, it doesn't matter even if he IS doing the offensive distribution perfectly.
Exactly. And if the defenders are bad at receiving passes like some here are saying then it’s time to change the style of play.
Man i bet this kid has played loads of football! Looks like the kind of person to listen to
soyboi init
it's crazy how United manages to bring down every singe player that joins them
it's crazy how that is a complete lie
@@NostalgiNorden not every but most of them , I agree with you
So crazy mate. Its almost like us fans were right when have been crying out for a better structure.
Like who?
@@EuanM20XSancho, onana, wilf zaha, Maguire, Memphis depay, Alexis Sanchez, falcao, di maria, schweinstiger, Daniel James, lindelof, pogba, Marcos rojo, victor valdes, van de beek, Antony, Morgan schneiderlin, martial
Leave Onana alone. He’s doing a fabulous job for 19 teams in the league.
How many games has Ramsdale played since Raya joined? I wouldn't call it rotation
Lol Arteta isn't rotating the GK, Raya is clearly first choice now
Tbf he did say that Arteta has only spoken about it but he hasn’t put it into practice yet.
Yeah I'm not sure he'll actually follow through with that one, Rammers might get a few look ins but I'm pretty sure it's Raya from here on out
Give them credit, they finally found someone to start taking the blame off of Maguire.
Mainly because Maguire doesn't even play anymore
If i may put it in simple terms, as we know that the primary purpose of a goalkeeper is to save shots and avoid goals, i can with confidence say that David de gea would save atleast half of the goals onana has conceded. So, long story short he's not a better keeper that de gea who united should have never let go, even with his occasional mistakes he had been saving united single handedly for a long time. As a rival fan I'll be happier with onana in goal than de gea, becaus even at his best onana is an average shot stopper (forget about his ball playing ability), but when de gea is in mood its almost impossible to put the ball past him in the goal. Thats my honest opinion.
I wonder What if de gea goes to another pl club and makes utd regret
As a casual fan, I don't remember anything about his shot-stopping at Ajax or Inter, 2 teams that made it deep into UCL the years he was starter. Playing for either Manchester club, he's gonna have a critics on him at all times. I think once United is back healthy, he'll regain confidence in distribution and therefore shot-stopping. He did have some very nice saves in the Brentford game.
When Onona signed I watch a video of all the shots he faced for Inter, he's a mediocre shot stopper and he concedes weird goals. But he can pull out the odd worldie that doesn't make sense. He also seems to hesitate to go down/not go down at all, and that might be because he was an outfield player originally.
Onana is a luxury keeper and one that United can't afford to have right now.
Good debut from this kid, I like the fact he wears glasses they make me respect his opinion more.
he did good at inter because they played a low block
@@apextheracer2022He also played well
I saw the same video and knew he wasn't a technically great keeper, very awkward.
Hope he comes good and his distribution approves.
@@sillwuka It makes you wonder why United didn't bring in a young keeper to develop and rotate him with Henderson who while not spectacular at anything is a decent shot stopper and long passer. It would have been cheaper and allowed for more time to find an ideal keeper if one exists.
Everyone called me a hater when I said that they only bought him because he had a decent game in the Champions League final! Now look at them.
I remember him looking kinda sus when Tottenham knocked Ajax out of the semis to reach the final that one year.
Onana Conceded 24 goals in 24 matches in Seria A last season 😆
also cause he played at Ajax before else he literally wouldn't even be in the conversation
u are a hater and wrong, he was always a highly rated keeper
I think we need to allow Onana to sweep and play more aggressively. Reap the rewards from it and also accept the mistakes.
The moment I saw those keeper's gloves I LULD out loud
The fact you put Sancho and Amrabat ahead of Antony and Casemiro who are ETH’s first choice players shows you have no idea what you’re talking about…
Actually I cannot fault those examples. Goalies should never give up their near post - it’s a cardinal sin. He protected his near side as that is the quickest and easiest route to goal in each one of those examples.
The near post thing is an absolute myth. Completely archaic. If you look at clips from like the 70s the keepers stand at the near post and leave the whole rest of the goal open which looking back now is absolutely ridiculous. Other keepers are able to prevent goals going in at the near post and not concede ridiculous goals like onana by over committing. It's lazy goalkeeping, he's trying to cheat.
The goalkeeper's job is to prevent as many goals as possible, not to specifically prevent near post goals because everyone would agree that those were his fault while rolling out the red carpet to his far post.
Man how much football has changed. From brutal shot stopper keepers to ball playing sweeper keepers
I think Onana might just be Pepe Reina light. I think one of the biggest problems for Onana is that Manchester United biggest rivals have 2 best goalies in the league and possibly world, and both came in and bossed it from day one and looked worth every penny what the team paid for them. Chelsea tried it and got burned BIG time, and Kepa never really recovered. Onana is much more experienced and accomplished but with move and play he does being overanalyzed, there is a chance he might follow the same path.
Nobody is gonna question if it ‘is ‘ the wrong video guy, cos some of us can remember the JJB video where he waxes lyrical about the transformative effect that Onana would have on the team.
It was all; “oooh Onana is gonna be able to push up between the centre backs and act like an extra CB and ‘oooh Onana is gonna be able to find a player anywhere on the pitch cos he’s basically Pirlo and Neuer in one !’
Funny, how I can’t find that video now 🤔
Loving the commitment to the video with the keeper gloves ❤
I think it was Peter Schmeichel that pointed out Onana was often jumping up before dropping down rather than lunging out towards the ball. This has resulted in a couple of errors where he let the ball go right under his hand. It seems like there is some fundamental technique that is causing his shot stopping errors.
Nice one.
Really loved the explainer about Ramsdale and Raya, and rotating keepers for tactical reasons.
That's the idea, but I'm not convinced Arteta will actually follow through and rotate them, pretty sure that was just some fluff to ease the transition to Raya. Interesting to hear what De Zerbi's up to though, I didn't know he was also on that train
That never works out though lol
Nobody rotates keepers if they actually have a great keeper
He’s always struck me as a ‘look at me I’m goalkeeping’ keepers. Chucking himself around whether it was needed or not.
His shot stopping has looked sub-par so far but there is only so much a keeper can do in build-up considering Varane and Casemiro are terrible at playing out from the back. They constantly move the ball around in the back third, don't get into better positions to receive the ball and give it away cheaply. All this invites pressure on the defence. Lisandro Martinez is United's only good ball-playing defender and has been injured this season.
And now they're pairing Casemiro with Amrabat whose even worse at playing out from the back
You could buy Livakovic for like 7m, a top-quality keeper. But nop, smart PL clubs wasting 50m+ on mediocre keepers. Ah.
As I said when he was first rumored to United… keepers like Alison, Neuer and Ederson are freak examples. I don’t buy into the whole sweeper, ballplaying goalkeeper. Sure, to squeeze a bit of extra juice and you’ve two equally skilled goalkeeper and one can sweep and the other cannot, take the sweeper… but in the end of the day, the fundament and the top of the hierarchy for any goalkeeper should be your ability to shotstop. Sure, you an screen and mitigate chance and perhaps even create, but how many of those ball playing moves are going to be converted to goals? You’re mitigating 3 chance, but once a ball hit a target, you don’t have the ability to stop the shot. Ultimately your objective is to prevent the ball going in. No goalkeeper has the talent to be on the pitch on a professional other than GK. Likewise no other players can play goalkeeper at a professional level. You can have a GK being good at mitigating but the shoots will come eventually at the rate in which you mitigate won’t line up in that equation in the end. Sweeping and ballplaying keepers is a nice little addition, can be potent but it cannot be on the expense of traditional GK quality.
I never fancied Onana as a goalkeeper on the biggest level. The first two games for United, he was the best player on the pitch, and I hope he were proven me wrong and I was optimistic. He’s now one of the worst goalkeepers, but it’s important to consider that changing a goalkeeper is a fundamental groundbreaking switch you can do to a lineup. It takes longer than any other positions to get right. Many starts shaky. I think it’s horrible at the moment, and even though I don’t fancy him as a GK, I still believe this is way under his level and he needs more time to settle in, hopefully he’ll get into it… but this was too soon to let go of De Gea. One more year… and I don’t for the life of me get, why United didn’t go for Donnarumma when he was a free agent.
I honestly think it was disrespectful they let De Gea go after a golden glove season. I won’t even go into the “he made errors” arguments because Onana has been actually worse!!
Or at least give him a goodbye at old trafford after many years with the club. But instead they just let him go
This guy explain so well. 👏👏
I see what you mean by rotating keepers, but there’s no way united bought him just to be rotated. He was talked up as a “one size fits all” solution as you mentioned and compared to Alisson and Ederson.
Don’t even need to watch the video. There’s one keep we scouted relentlessly that was first choice. Glazers wouldn’t stump up the cash, fall back they panicked and asked Ten Haag who he wanted who was cheaper. Ten Haag shouldn’t be in no charge of recruitment. That’s not how modern football works, but as we all know, United have spent 18 years operating like it’s 2005.
It's so good to see Tifo engaging in bring your children to work day 😊
6:20 "The plan has been interrupted by the injuries United have had. Hojlund out injured. Mount out injured. Jadon Sancho...just doesn't play football anymore."
Everyone said Ole was a joke when we had both De Gea and Henderson swapped….but Arsenal and Brighton are great because they do this? 🤔
Weird how the narrative changes right...
Ole didn't do it for tactical reasons. He just lacked backbone
He’s an indoor keep who likes to bring the ball up.
He also has weird form when he dives.
yeah he hops when he dives it's so funny
It’s not an Onana problem, it’s a Ten Hag problem. You can’t ask a guy to stop playing his way and instead to completely limit his skill set to pass to the CB’s and staying in his box. He can be United’s Manuel Neuer but Ten Hag has to trust him and I don’t think Ten Hag is the manager that trusts anybody and instead, like Guardiola, is a meticulous man-manager where either you play the way the manager says or you get dropped and sold.
If I had to guess the intensity of pressing is higher in the Prem + low confidence leading to trying to play safer causing further errors. Raya was available for 40m even with United tax.
He'd of cost us a lot more than £40m we don't get charged the same rate as other clubs
He played around City's press in the final, it's not a problem.
If United bought Raya and he would face similar problems and make similar mistakes, I bet you would be the first one to whine about not buying Andre Onana.
@@aliaskaradylov6637 I'm a Liverpool fan lmao it's hilarious to me

Over analysing something that is quite simple: he lost faith in his skills, he is unsure on what he needs to do, he came to MU and there is no leadership.
Excellent video as per usual
De Gea is the reason that I love football. The reason I support United. To have a club legend like that,last years prem golden glove winner, replaced by a keeper who can’t keep a clean sheet to save his life. He was supposed to be one of the best at distribution but a drunk De gea could pass better than him at the moment. No hate to Onana, but I knew this would happen. We all knew deep down, that De gea couldn’t be replaced. I’m proud to call him my number 1.
You’re deluded.
@@jgmediting7770 just imagine taking time to comment that someone is deluded while contributing nothing to the conversation. What do you even mean?
@@thesunkenlocker your delusion is self evident from your comments on de gea. What do you think you were continuing?
@@jgmediting7770 Again what do you mean? He was at the club for 10 years as a number 1 throughout. If that isn't someone at least worthy of a send off and some respect I don't know what is. Tell me specifically why I am deluded, I genuinely want to know.
@@thesunkenlocker I’m sure you do.
For goalkeeping ability, he will always be compared poorly against De Gea, the last of his breed and the best shot stopper in the world bar none. Other keeper's miracle save is De Gea's routine, what is "can't do anything about it" to other keeper is a blunder for De Gea. For people and fans to expect Onana to match De Gea in shot stopping from the get go is ludicrous.
The thing is, I notice and like how fast Onana is in coming off the line, and while it hasn't come to fruition we can already see how great his distribution is, and now I no longer have a mini heart attack when the goalkeeper has his feet on the ball.
All in all, Onana is needed for the kind of football United and Ten Haag wants to play... next is whether the players in front of him can play the way Ten Haag wants.
The real question is: has Manchester United done ANYTHING right in the transfer market since 2013? Honestly at this point it's looking like an actual curse. Randomly buying players or going by Football Manager wonderkids would have probably had far better success rate than United have had in the last decade.
I enjoyed this analysis.
The initial patterns in 23-24 - playing out - were SO clear and such a drastic change for the squad from work with DDG, it seemed at once a big improvement but led to a worry (for me) of far too much overreliance on the new slow and intricate methods. Then BAM!, injuries to the back line & a growing lack of confidence as the masses want to jump on the new guy's back. The sub keeper is also great at the new playing out methods, but like Onana might not approach DDG as a shot-stopper.
I think the best idea is to press on and SUPER DRILL that defence to adapt. When I see City's ultra-disciplined players in comparison, it almost makes one weep: tirelessly creating space to receive passes
Doing the whole video in goalie gloves in absolutely top notch😂
Very good analysis and an interesting argument at the end in favour of rotating your keeper. I've always been against it but maybe selecting a short pass keeper like Steele and Ramsdale for specific opponents is the way football will go
But if he rotates the keeper, he will be facing the wrong way when they shoot at him????!
I dont understand why you wouldn’t rotate GK accordingly, it’s just dumb to not asses the other team and choose a shot stoping gk or a progressive passing gk if the team ur facing is not attacking forward or whatever. I’m not versed here but it’s been annoying me that noone does this. You rotate every other player when they are not working, rotate ur GK as well if it’s not
I like this new Ronaldo Weasley character.
Let me put this straight and as bluntly as possible. A GK's primary job is to SAVE goals. Everything he does with his feet in buildup is a nice to have. We have had too much of 'oh, he can pass blah blah blah'.
I am patient with him though, he can improve as DDG did after his initial struggles. But please stop defending him with his ball playing skills.
Which is how he got to the champions league, because he's a terrible goalkeeper. Let's not pretend internet rent-a-mouths were happy with DDG's shot stopping. By your metric, man utd haven't had a gk in a very long time.
You were the hipsters telling United to sign him😂
At Ajax he often made weird and risky choices. Not just with his passing but also with his shot stopping. With United however those moments happen more frequently because those dangerous moments are forced more by the opponents. The Ajax he played for was a lot more dominant than the current United. I think Onana would perform on his Ajax level if he for example played for City. But he still wouldn't be as good as Ederson or Alisson. He'd still have that risky factor in his game.
Sanity check on your goalkeeper PSxG model:
This data says the keepers in this sample have on average conceded 11% fewer goals than expected.
That's a huge deviation from the 0 to the slightly above 0 (only counts keepers with 500+ mins so you'd expect a slight skew away from 0) you'd expect, and the total sample size is large enough to expect small errors if the model is good (187 total PSxG).
From this I conclude that this model likely isn't good enough to be used for any good level of analysis.
united didn't buy onnna for is stop stopping, okay then let him play CB, we've bought him for his ability on build up play. Absolute on point analysis.
Wow 👏 Sanchez is on ever tier of performance indicators you're highlighting, Chelsea fans we got us a gem here💙
I only want to say one thing, bring back the aftermatches tifo podcast pleaseeeeeeeeeeee
This is like if you don't make a mistake in areas you're strong in then you shouldn't be blamed. With this logic I don't see why people slam TAA almost every week for failing to defend certain situations.
If you're a gk, you know what is your primary duty.
Dont get me wrong the midfield and defence have not helped him however he's made some horrendous decisions and his shot stopping has been pitiful too
They went from the best shot stopper in the world in de Gea to the 9th best in Serie A last year.
De Gea hasn't been the best in years. If you watched him every week you saw he was making similar errors to Onana now, but last season we had Martinez and Varane available together and they contributed to the Golden Glove win more than De Gea's saves.
DDG best shot stopper in the world ? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
3 months ago United needed him, now Onana is wrong GK, how come :) ?
Oh, trust me, we know about Nick Popes sweeper keeper tendencies. He had the play of the season last year on Salah.
So it's best to play Onana and Heaton so you get best of both keepers👍
Did you do a similar video on De Gea's first few months at United?
De Gea was 21 when he came. He was only promising young prospect. Nobody was sure would he fit in. But the way Onana was hailed by all ManU fans and how De Gea was sent away one would expect miracle around the keeper's box.
Diogo Costa exists in this world, so yeah they bought the wrong keeper.
Yeah, it is unfair to ask the goalkeeper to stop the shots. Agree
Allison's only weakness if we're talking about distribution is those mid-long range passes. He's got a great throw and drop kick, he's assisted a few times with these but he doesn't always pull off lobbed passes. That being said I believe he's the best keeper in the PL. His short passing is fine and confident but a goalkeeper like Onana is probably one of the best at picking out a player at range with his feet.
So Brighton and De Zerbi have been more aggressive with rotating goalkeepers this season, but yet Arteta gets the constant questions and criticism regarding goalkeepers smh
Arsenal are one of the biggest clubs in the league. It shouldn't be a great surprise that the attention falls on them
Not a MU fan. I think MU is a lot of hot air. Onana however has a very strong presence. He’s quite fearful to any penalty taker. He needs more time
You said exactly what me and a few others have been saying in comment sections that other fans are finally waking up to. Goal keeper was never the priority this season. We still have way too many problems with the outfield to accommodate a keeper like Onana. I think if we ever get fit we'll see improvement that's looking like a big if. Now we have to not shatter his confidence while we hold the rest of the team together with duct tape
I was screaming from the same hymn sheet, this season we did not need to go out and get a keeper, the team has not yet evolved into Erik Ten Hags style of play. We should have persevered with De Gea for one more season, focused funds on the outfield players, then went and got Onana next season when we had evolved into a solid team both out of and in possession.
@@amirdiabe So overpay De Gea for five seasons when you only need one season, sounds smart. I think if it was an in house option it should have been Henderson who screamed low risk high reward 1 year stopgap on reasonable wages. I don't disagree that midfielders and the defense should have gotten more investment, alongside paying for Hojlund and maybe a backup or rotation option for him.
@@phightinphil25 De Geas contract was done, we could off offered him a 1 year contract on half his wages. Dropped from 250k to 125k. And we would of probably went and got Onana for much cheaper. Alternatively we could of also given Matej Kovar a chance before letting him go. He played well for reserves last season, and done well in pre season. The funds spent on Onana could of made a bigger difference in our outfield squad
@@amirdiabe De Gea didn't want 180k per week so he was never going to take 125k. Why do you think he hasn't signed for anybody else yet ? Kovar wasn't ready to start yet but him and Henderson would have cost nothing and been adequate for a year or two.
@@amirdiabe yeah, de gea wouldn’t do that. Ffs.
I hate modern footbal so much. Guy is talking about "he isnt a bad keeper just because he cant save his goal he can pass the ball good", Bro let him play midfield then. WTF is wrong with managers and people to think this is okay. 💀
2:09 This here is exactly the problem. Why would I sign a goalie because of what he can do with his feet.
Yeah... I'm not football saavy but choosing a GK because he's better with his feet makes no sense. What is the main job of a GK? Stopping goals or building attacks? When push comes to shove its his hands that will save the day, not his play ability
Shows how confident he is from his defense. Yes, he's made mistakes but lets not forget this guy was playing the ucl final months ago. AND had a great game..... What has changed? The defense in front of him. So why the mistakes? He is not confident, bc Man U doesnt really ooze confidence right now at any level. Then they complain why the players are not working.... maybe they need to fix the dressing room before blaming new acquisitions.
Guys a goalkeeper is supposed to goal-keep… that’s it on that
Inter just had a wayyy better defense compared to United. Inter were absolutely unbelievable during the CL final
I’ve seen teams with worser outfield players I way better than Onana.
You would expect more goal keeping skills for 50 million
The goal from Galatassaray wasn't a mistake lol. Bit of a reach there. No keeper in the world saves that. The mistake was his kicking that got Casemiro sent off.
On the RW at 5:58 is Jadon Sancho, who I can’t imagine is part of the lineup ETH would “most want to use” at this point
I think he meant "excepting injury, form, and personal issues"
I mean, this never actually happens in work or football ot life, but I think that's what he was getting at.
It could just be Onana getting used to Prem football the same way most new players do except as a keeper, you don’t get any leniency for not being ready and you get killed whereas when you’re a striker, people can often say soon you’ll be putting the ball into the net. The issue is with the build up because Ten Hag has Onana playing the wrong style of build-up. I have no idea why Ten Hag doesn’t let Onana just send the ball to the attack or midfielders and why he makes him just pass it out because he didn’t buy him to just pass it or throw it 5 yards. It’s a mixture of not being ready yet and not being able to play the football he wants to play. A mix that can make a nightmare for Onana.
Relax. You people got startled too much. De Gea was error-prone in his first 2 years, but he did well up to the end of his career.
Great video, love the new guy :)
This guy would make a good manager
The goalkeeping coaching standards is really good in united if not the other coaching standards, we shld see him improve alot slowly, he just needs time
I like this new guy preseting.
weird to say Onana wasnt a good shot stopper since he had a PSXGP of 7+ in the champions league last season which is mind boggling and he had solid numbers for ajax. also weird to talk about his passing and then use the season at inter where he used that attribute the least in his career
Really enjoyed that video. Excellent
