2022/23 Amadou Onana

[Librarian]

He actually played well and taking him off was a mistake

The polarized extremes that exist on this forum are capable of giving you whiplash. After the first couple games people were lauding him excessively saying he won't be here soon because hes such an incredible talent now you have urine soaked individuals saying hes atrocious. How about he's 21 shown some potential and had some good moments but has some flaws and still needs to develop his game. Everton fans are masters at hyperbole

Plus safe in possession a lot, would like to see him drive and look for forward pass a bit more.

I think he's an awful player. Fellaini had a better touch than him.

Fellani was gash for most of his 1st season. Probably young and settling in. Onana will need the same don't you think?

This kid will be out of our league in 2 seasons, injuries permitting. The sky really is the limit for him. He's playing in a terrible Everton team, in a league which is far better and quicker than anything he has experienced before and he is still one of our better performers most weeks. But, you know, let's all slate a kid for not being Zidane.

I wasn’t impressed with his World Cup performances tbh. I think he can go a long way but the languid strolling around playing safe passes isn’t going to get him to the next level.

Im quite underwhelmed to be honest.

He looks an awful player.

Clearly hes very young and can improve, but so far, meh.

 

[MikeH72]

I think he needs to play as a ball winning number 6, his head burns out when he crosses the half way line. He’s got a long way to go before he’s a box to box midfielder.

 

[Ivo]

For a tall man his heading is awful. Noticed it for us and again today. Wins the attacking header but goes way off target.

 

[Moomin]

Crap.

Like a dire Felli.

 

[everton1953]

Hopefully our next manager will develop him into a top player.

 

[Rich1878]

Far too young to write him off.

I think the lad will turn out to be a top talent for us personally

Certainly not writing him off, its the downside of buying young players with potential.

Without taking away from your point, with which I agree - Belgium have been dreadful and tbh I think this entire World Cup rather sucks, re: the quality of play, even taking into account the expected dropoff in the international game from the best levels of the club game.
