"It says everything about Manchester United's success rate with goalkeepers that André Onana might not claim the distinction of being the club's worst No. 1 during the Premier League era. But it is undeniable that the team's dismal record over the last two years has coincided with the 29-year-old's period in goal. There are many key ingredients for a successful team."
"United spent over £200 million this summer on Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko, in an attempt to upgrade on the woeful attacking options that recorded just 44 goals in 38 league games last season. But, despite conceding 54 goals, the goalkeeping problem was allowed to fester. Every game so far this season has been impacted by a mistake from the man chosen to wear the gloves by head coach Ruben Amorim."
André Onana's time in goal has coincided with Manchester United's dismal record over the past two years, though he is not necessarily the club's worst Premier League-era No. 1. Scoring goals and preventing them remain pivotal, yet United managed only 44 league goals last season and conceded 54, while spending over £200 million on attacking reinforcements. The goalkeeping issue continued to fester, with Altay Bayindir and Onana both producing costly errors that affected every game. Onana is set to join Trabzonspor on a season-long loan, leaving Ruben Amorim to resolve a significant problem at goalkeeper.
