Andre Onana's Form: Big Problem for Manchester United

Manchester United's £47.2m goalkeeper signing Andre Onana struggles with mistakes, raising questions about his position despite potential.

Manchester United's £47.2m signing of Andre Onana from Inter was expected to bring about a revolution in the goalkeeper position at the club. The goal was for Onana to allow the team to play out from the back more effectively, building possession plays from deep with his passing ability.

While Onana has shown glimpses of his potential, his first few months at Manchester United have been marred by several goalkeeping blunders. His mistakes in the Champions League have proven to be costly, with the team now sitting at the bottom of their group.

Erik ten Hag, the Manchester United manager, has defended Onana, emphasizing that individual errors can make a difference but that it is always about the team. However, questions have been raised about how many mistakes it would take for the manager to make a change in the goalkeeper position.

Despite his recent form, there is still hope that Onana can turn things around. He was one of the best goalkeepers in Europe last season, and there is potential for him to grow in confidence as he becomes more accustomed to his new surroundings in England. Similar to David de Gea's challenging start at Manchester United, Onana has the opportunity to prove his doubters wrong and establish himself as a top goalkeeper for the club.
