How Onana is Already Transforming Man United

Until relatively recently, the role of the goalkeeper was seen as pretty one dimensional, tasked with keeping the ball out of the net and making a pass so the 10 outfield players could create an attack. So when goalkeepers like Fabian Barthez went full FIFA and rushed into the midfield, the whole world thought they were crazy. However, slowly but surely goalkeepers started to have a bigger impact on the game. The amount of passes they complete per match has steadily been trending upwards, and more and more managers are looking for goalkeepers that can play with their feet. And when it comes to this type of keeper, the most extreme version is Man united’s new signing Andre Onana. He’s comfortable with the ball at his feet, he’s creative and very good under pressure, whilst also being a decent goalkeeper. His style is definitely not for everyone, the Cameroon international played only one game at the world cup after breaking the record for the most amount of touches outside the box from a goalkeeper, with the manager benching him after feeling he took way to many risks. But this signing is a hint to a changing tactical landscape, and the advantages he brings man united are already starting to be seen.

For those of you who don’t know he came from Barca’s academy La Masia but because of Ter Stergen and Bravo in their prime he didn’t get the chance and left in 2016 for Ajax per reports from Barca B, they say he is the best keeper they’ve ever had.All the best in his new chapter

[@sorryminati4719]

He left before ter Stegan came in mate He left since Valdez was at top

[@YungG1]

@@sorryminati4719 stop lying and misleading people here. Do your research before you talk to me too. Let me educate you small. Ter Stergen join Barca in 2014 and he was the second keeper because Claudio Bravo was the first, he fought for his spot and becomes the first and won the UCL in 2015. Bravo left late 2016 so Barca had both Ter Stergen and Claudio Bravo as the two keepers and Onana was very young so there was no way he will start in the first team but the whole plan was to be the second keeper but Onana unfortunately left early 2016 because was concerned about his future and Bravo also left months after.

[@sorryminati4719]

@YungG1 mate he had left Barcelona B for 2 separate loan spells before ter stegan even walked and left the club in early 2015. He ended up at Jong Ajax. Onana had already by the timeline you're sharing. Also I do stand corrected that he didn't leave before ter Stegan "joined" Barca But Onana was well away from Barca before with his loans to Vista Alegre He almost planned on leaving since 2014 when stegan came in and Ajax swooped on him

[@sorryminati4719]

@YungG1 also what's with your horrendous English and tone? Lol 😆

[@YungG1]

@@sorryminati4719 OMG I never said he left before Ter Stergen joined. He was there before he came but Ter Stergen stepped his game up and battled Claudio Bravo to become the goal keeper. The whole point was that Onana would be Claudio Bravo’s replacement but when Ter Stergen came the whole plan changed that’s why he left because he knew he won’t get gaming minutes. And to correct you, Onana left before Bravo left so it was unfortunate for Onana cox if he had stayed a little bit longer he would have been the 2nd Keeper

Your video just made me realize something. The likes of Ederson, Allison, & Ter Stegen can be said to be ball-playing GKs while Onana, Neuer & shoutout to Barthez😂 are Ball-carrying GKs. Football has completed an (r)evolution. The playmaker is officially in all 11 positions.

[@emekaononubaku9919]

😂😂😂

[@marlo_stanfield4410]

At least it means, to be successful, especially as a ball possession side, you need 11 players comfortable on the ball and in high pressing situations. One player not good enough on the ball is enough to have a massive weak spot the opponent can expose ie Wan Bissaka, De Gea and Maguire. So mufc had 3 of those at the back. Still Varane is not the best with the ball, he has enough confidence to get the job done. That's why either Dalot has to play or mufc need to buy a new RB in January or next summer. Onana helps massively to evolve with this playing style. Now the patterns must be trained. I think in a few months, we should see more and more improvement

[@javorgeorgiev6130]

Feels like the high pressing meta just forced the deep lying playmaker even further down.

@@marlo_stanfield4410 This makes sense because unlike other sports, football is a game of the weakest link. Meaning the best way to improve a squad is usually (with exceptions) replacing the weakest player in the team. Now it would only make sense that the game would eventually evolve to demand that all players in the 11 are capable of creating attacking opportunities as well as defending. On the other side, you can see it with modern strikers having a lot more involvement in build up and defence

As a United fan for the past 15 years, I loved de gea no doubt, although his performance during the fa cup final last season was a perfect example of his poor long passing skills when he was pressed. Every time he received the ball I was shouting at the screen ‘do not kick it to man city ffs” yet he did exactly that every time. Onana though, showed great confidence on the ball and quite frankly I’ve never seen a goalkeeper with his composure while being pressed. I think he is the final piece of the puzzle of our current defense line and I really really look forward to his performance against the big 6 in the next season

[@ClaudeMagicbox]

As an Italian INTER fan that saw Onana play many times I say that he is one of a kind because he basically alters the balance in the field; all teams play with 10 players + 1 goalkeeper while the team with Onana plays 11 players + 1 goalkeeper because he literally does two distinct roles. He is not the best goalie within the posts, expect him to make some errors especially by almost always deflecting the ball and not clutching it yet he is extremely quick and reactive (not even close to Julio Cesar who was nicknamed "el Gato" or "the Cat" because he literally sprung and extended beyond anybody's expectations), but this ability to actually be an added defender in the possession phase is amazing.

[@nananou1687]

Cesar was a freak. That treble winning team was🎉

[@danielsingeorzan2808]

Those errors in goal are exactly why I don't like GK"s that 'go out there and play the ball a lot' . A GK's job is to save goals, the more he saves the better for the team, as he is the very last resort in a team- if he messes up, most likely there will be a goal. Whereas if he goes and plays the defender role, getting some nice passes, that does not guarantee anything for his team, as the other team can just sit back a bit and let him come, he is not going to dribble everyone and score. and if he does make a mistake inn the back with a slow pass or a misplaced one, that there is nobody in the goal, which Onana pid for in preseason. The GK is the person to take the less possible risks in a team, because if he messes up, it's game over (look at Mendy against Real Madrid 2 years ago I believe). A keeper's job is to save goals, and that's about it. if he can do a bit more, very well, if not, so be it. There are a lot of GK's mistakes that and up in a goal, or goals that could have been saved if there was a better GK, and very few cases that the GK's contribution to the goal was crucial (assists by Ederson and Alisson) - but that is different, as it was from catching a ball and pass it forward for the striker, not related to what we are talking about here at all

[@Jollux2124]

Did you mean the opposition is getting an extra player?

[@ademosthenes4911]

To many coaches go with the trend, Onana es a decent keeper but that is it, he will cost more points to his team for his mistakes and inefficiency between the posts than produce them with his passes. @@danielsingeorzan2808

[@chukwudiisaacawa5610]

Onana is a a good signing. Dude is even on higher level than Ederson and Alison in terms of ball distribution. People say Onana dribble will have mistake and lead to fatal goal. I agreed, this is Onana full package, meaning that he has world class ball distribution skills, but he takes risk and risk may lead to mistake. He will minimise the mistake. Onana said in an interview "i take risk and i know that. I am not prepare to make a mistake, but i know i will eventually make mistake. If i make a mistake on Sunday, i still need to go to work on Monday. If i don't take risk, i will not cause any pain. I receive the ball and make clearance, throw the ball away. But i will not help my team build up". In terms of overall performance debut, it's a massive upgrade from Degea. I know Degea is a world class shop stopper, buy he stays at his goal line, never comes out to help, pass the ball to opponents etc. With Onana debut, you can see his 1 impeccable ball dribbling 2 Great mind games 3 Great body acceleration 4 Great first touch 5 Accurate curve + Accurate weight to each pass (comfortable for receiver) Not just a CB-playing goalie, his ball distribution is Pirlo level (if you really watch football. Also when he pass the ball, he moves immediately to another open space location which gives defender one extra passing option. Numerical advantage, i trust you all football hard-core fans watch every Man Utd games for the last few seasons. You understand when we are pressed at the back, we have basically no choice but to pass to Degea at the back, and then clearance which has no aim. And literally every PL team know how terrible Degea was with his feet. Now, with Onana, no coach wants to press him, otherwise they will fall into Onana trap . Not only his distribution skills but because Onana has great vision, and can ping the ball 50 to 60 metres. (

Funny enough, years back in our 5-a-side games, I would routinely come forward as the goaltender (my standard position in full-pitch games) as I found it gave my side a numerical advantage. I would draw an opposition player toward me, leaving the opposing team with only three outfield players to my team's four, while the opposition goalie would stay rooted. It usually worked wonders.

Hahaha.. this video is so great. Hahaha

[@zuphie9680]

this is the best analysis of onana so far. well done

[@dimassubrata]

This is the first time I watch your video but wow it's really well made, instant subscribe 👍

[@KevinHwoarang]

Onana looks like a guy that used to be a midfielder, that somehow got the urge to play goalkeeper.

[@josiahflame7477]

He said it in his documentary he was a player not a Gk

[@TheReddances]

Yes. Defences vs MU are lightly to try a tighter tougher low block, so MUCH BETTER tika-taka & imaginative energy up front is required (SO lacking, even with Rashford on form, in recent years); lots for false shuttle runs in behind, perhaps - tiring though these are. Also, getting good at chipping long shots vs the keeper must surely become more common - should be exciting! And I think that the good lung-busting recovery run is something the FBs must come to fully accept more, as teams work on their transitions. I haven't seen MU's first choices as so keen on that. (And regarding this, thank goodness that the Maguire era is now over. Ha!) Feel sorry for DDG in not being able to quickly adapt his impressive skills. Such is work life for all of us!

[@fanos23]

Wow, this is very well explained. Subscribed.

[@richwrag3308]

This is the most informative tactics vid I've seen and clearly shows the advantages and disadvantages of Uniteds new style of play... I love what ten hag is doing.

[@agegroot5666]

Already a great goalie at Ajax, remember the day he made a big mistake after a corner but set it right in the same match, saved Ajax with some incredible saves.

[@sheriffmohammed3885]

Onana isn't a ball playing goal keeper, he's a "Playmaking Goal Keeper"

[@StarskyEnt]

Amazing vid and graphics. Subbed

[@sirds1548]

Yes he's made them invincible 😂

[@crb2222]

thoroughly enjoyed your video, looking forward to seeing how it goes for them.

[@agostonpad4183]

In the next 10-15 years, academies will try to produce gks who are not only good shot stoppers and technical, but also very quick ones to be able to play as high as possible so they can both support the attack and can run back to the goal if possession is lost

[@kweneojo]

What? 😂😂

[@shaunsocha421]

Nah won't be next 10-15, academies will already be pivoting to try and get ahead of these tactics

[@learntooilpaint]

@@shaunsocha421 Acadamies and even local junior teams are doing this. My daughter has played as ball carrying GK previously, and they have now decided to move her out to play as the ball playing CB like Martinez, she drops into the DM in midfield in attack and uses her pace as a defender to cover ground.

[@learntooilpaint]

@@shaunsocha421 The other thing I have noticed in their training is the amount of work they do on press resistance, and when you watch all the teams at the club they all play it from small to senior.

[@BigSuzpekt]

@@learntooilpaintbut that’s not what he was saying. To me it sounds like they just change your kids position because they realize they were wasting her talent as a keeper. They do that with a lot of professional players. Bale was a left back and they moved him to left wing, xavi was a DM and they moved him into CM, etc. the comment is stating that the keeper will play higher up. I think his comment is dumb how he said it. No team will play a keeper like he stated. And teams have been training keeper to play better with their feet. Ajax, Barcelona are prime example of that. Onana started in La masia and then was sold to Ajax.

[@reecemaddy]

Amazing how the game is changing. Even 4 odd years ago when I played academy football I was scouted on the basis that I could hit a clean 40 yard ping just as well as any of the central midfielders, absolutely nothing to do with shot stopping

[@tadiwanashezacharia4953]

That was amazing 🎉 you earned a new subscriber❤

[@peterbanhan2432]

Amazing analysis, well done sir.

[@Swisswavey]

It's going to be fun to watch. I can see a fair few mistakes though and wonder whether the pressure from media and some fans will get to him.

[@Qassimsport]

Onana is an excellent goalkeeper & a great deal for Ten Hag

[@theezone40]

your tatical analysis is probably the best i've seen, time to binge your channel mate hahaha

[@-Osiris-]

This is a great piece of in depth analysis

[@wrathoflichking9603]

Man this is the best and the simplest explanation I've seen.

[@elinelly-ricky979]

Great explanation. As a Cameroonian I really appreciate it and wish he will get back in the National Team. I also appreciate that you acknowledge that goal against Lens wasn't his fault.

[@lancerevo9747]

I hope you get a coach that understands the importance of his qualities and requires them. Rigobert cast him out

[@mv11000]

Excellent video, thank you.

[@Salwanito]

this is the best football analysis video I have seen all year. short, structured, simple, amazing animations and clips. take a bow!

[@200Percent.]
