      You could already see Onana got some talent when he played in Zweite Bundesliga for Hamburger SV. It wasnt a big surprise that he quickly moved on for 2 digit million fee to a bigger site. But IMO he wont be a "world class dm/cm". He is for sure a good Premier League Player but not more not less.

      Great video bro, Quinten Timbers a good shout to do next, very interesting player linked to a prem move for a little while now, possibly to reunite with his brother at Arsenal

    11. @oguzo.1882 on

      I think He is not a JdP type of CDM. He is a functional 6. That's why I think Liverpool is the best fit out of all teams you considered, but we know Everton and LFC don't do business which is weird.

    15. @igortomsov2814 on

      As a fan of FC Bayern and following the ongoing debates about searching a defensive midfielder next to Kimmich….I´m asking myself why do they consider Palinha but not the younger and more talented Onana…

    19. @mohamadfadel7665 on

      I think he's similiar with Casemiro in terms of playstyle. A physical player who doesn't afraid to engage duels but could offer more than Casemiro in possession. But I believe he's still too quick to move to big clubs like Liverpool or Arsenal. Would love to see him move to UEL or UECL level clubs like Brighton or West Ham

      seeing how close cacideo was on the ball playing stats to partey ,we (arsenal) ,should just spent the whole budget om him and rice . i like onana but for me he suits more rock and role style of futbol funny enough him at liverpool or newcastle would be perfect.

    24. @abednegojulius4554 on

      If he was a Britain another £100 was demanded..for me he is the best..I had rather had him than rice..the only reason for that is his calmness on the ball..the technique..creativity..above rice strength of rice is only power and tackles which I can see onana has too..I would like to see another creativity player on the left 8 as ode on the right..for time being onana can act there..with rice behind him..and even when we need onana to sit there as single pivot he can do that too

    28. @weezyjeezy1234 on

      Do Rodrygo next please bro. Quite an interesting one as he’s now playing on his favoured left flank in vini’s absence, and is arguably in the form of his life

    29. @mpitsikletiuser6081 on

      pythagoras, do you have any good idea of why, nowadays, we see a lot of players with extremely bizarre qualities, related to the position and the role they play? i was putting the blame on their coaches but it's so annoying seeing so many times, for example a winger who is explosive but can't dribble or only able in big spaces, with no ability to cross , who can't finish, play in a team that progresses the ball slowly. This kid Onana, watching his limitation regarding his technique, how many roles could a coach fit him into? a CM like Marchisio, a box2box like Vidal or an defensive midfielder like Makelele. He has those wonderful passes but he is 100% unable to play any of the 3 roles mentioned before. The distribution of qualities is so bizarre. You can see that with wide defenders too. Can't cross, can't defend properly and even wingerlike (see Tsimikas) who begin from that deep the best they put in a pitch is a good combination, a 1-2. It's frustrating. Why are we seeing players like that a lot?

      Arsenal lack offensive quality,. They need players who combine speed, fitness (not being injured), dribbling, assists and GOALS. Attackers that can create for themselves and kill the opponent. They lack that. Look at Liverpool: Without having the best Defenders and Midfielders, they have Attackers that can dribble and create for thmeselves and they are 1st (Salah, Jota, Diaz, Nunez, Gakpo). And they play at counter attacks fast as a lightning .
      Arsenal don't create any more this year. They lack through passes from CB (like David Luiz's) and CDM – CM (like Partey's and Xhaka's). Martinelli always going out on the left where he is not dangerous. Saka always wanting to cut inside and plays far from the goal. Opponents who park the bus and you don't have a big body No 9 (like Haaland, Ibrahimovic, Djeko, Giroud, at their prime). So if Arsenal can't find a BIG and great No 9, they should go the Liverpool way with speedy dribblers, with goal and assisting quality.
      Arsenal don't need another big guy at CDM with limited quality. Man City and Liverpool would never reach that high performances with a clumsy, big guy. You need Partey's, Rodri's, Fabinho's, or Xhaka's level of quality., alongside with aggressive and wise positional defending. Not just big, brutal, clumsy guys. Of course Arsenal would need a fit substitute No 6, behind Rice. But not a 70-90m clumsy guy.
