2023/24 Amadou Onana

[blueblueskies]

Big question for me is who replaces him?

On the bench?

On the bench?

He played in 63 games for us

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

£50m plus add ons and a sell on clause is more than fair based on how he’s actually performed for us. Always thought it was down to attitude rather than ability with this fella.

Enjoy your strolling and hope you can find enthusiasm playing for Villa. Thanks for your “effort”.

He's got the potential to go onto greater things, even his detractors must be able to admit that.

I have some reservations about him, he showed moments of potentially what he could be, but like a lot of younger players the consistency wasn't always there.

Just have to hope the money is spent, and spent well to ensure his sale strengthens the side.

Given we were interested in Ndidi I would say a free transfer.

He can do that "cheer more" gesture to their crowd after missing a sitter, maybe they'll take to it more than we did.

I know there are some bad meffs but I don’t think that’s really true as a generalisation. After the turmoil of the last few years, there’s a desperate desire for some stability (which, under Dyche, means nothing better than Dycheball), but if we get that, then surely every fan* wants us to be a better footballing side?

I mean, I’d like that now but not if it’s at the cost of more points deductions or a Bobby Brown Shoes style collapse in defence.

*meffs excepted

Don’t think wearing smelly clothes means you want Everton to be crap at footy but you never know

Can’t wait to see Villa fans realising they’ve spent 50m on a mascot.

Good luck Onana
Good business for us
Selling for more than he cost without being a key player
Thelwell doing bits

German media seem to think Hamburg SV get a percentage of the sale, too. Just wondered if anyone knew any more about this? Apologies if it's already been covered.

EDIT:

I'd think Lille would owe that as they bought him from Hamburg.

Makes sense. Cheers!

I like him as a player….

I think he is a good player and does add to the team and will only get better.

Think he is the best midfielder we have.

Expect to see him flourish in a Villa side.

What special attributes did he show that made you think he added to the team with them?

Onana probably has slightly higher hopes for himself than Michael Keane and rightly so. He also wasn’t born in the north west of England so literally has no good reason why he’d be interested in staying long term at Everton.

Man. City are in the north west of England and would be a good reason for him to stay long term with them, unfortunately City are well out of Onana’s capabilities!
