Manchester United is grappling with goalkeeping issues as Andre Onana’s string of mistakes raises concerns among teammates and fans. Valued at £47.2 million, the 27-year-old goalkeeper, signed as a replacement for David de Gea, has been responsible for multiple errors in recent matches, including the 3-3 draw against Galatasaray. Onana’s lackluster performances have jeopardized United’s chances in the Champions League, leaving them in a precarious position in Group A.
Former players and fans are questioning the decision to let go of De Gea, who is still without a new club. Onana’s struggles with distribution and shot-stopping abilities have highlighted the void left by the Spanish goalkeeper. The team, currently at the bottom of Group A with four points, needs a decisive victory against Bayern to advance to the knockout stages, putting additional pressure on Onana to rectify his performances.
Captain Bruno Fernandes expressed frustration with the team’s defensive lapses, emphasizing the need for improvement to secure positive results in the Champions League. United faces a critical juncture as they navigate the challenges posed by Onana’s inconsistencies.
