2023/24 Amadou Onana

[Carlito]

It was pretty funny when he said the hardest adjustment he had to make after joining Everton was getting used to getting beat all the time.

 

[supertoffee98]

Fir me he was a player who turned it on a couple if times a game for ten minutes or so but who largely was in second gear the rest. Question is was that him not being that bothered or more likely just the type of player he'll always be

We'll find out this season, make or break for him this year. Agree he seemed to have bursts of energy and involvement but spent a lot of time on the pitch missing in action. In retrospect I probably would never have signed a player who just wanted a stepping stone club to Champions League football.

 

[the golden visionary]

Hes played for us like he's a lot better than he is, like he's a busquets clone, but he's not that type of player, busquets was a true phenom and played in a side that had the Goat and usually above 70% possesion. If he wants his talent to match his ego he should model his game on the makelele, rodri, kante type player as he has the tools there to be at least close to that class of player.

In my opinion

In my opinion

Makelele and Kante are light years ahead of Onana mate, he'll never come close to being regarded anywhere on a par with those two

That's why I said type player

 

[PhilEFC]

Good luck to him.

But at the end of the day he got dropped from the team when the going got tough.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Good luck to him.

Yep
He might turn out to be a top top player but he’s not what we need right now
Gana came back in and stepped up big time when we needed him

 

[SJB]

His greatest attribute is fist pumping, patting his badge and imploring the crowd to get behind the team when he's won a throw in through a lucky deflection around the halfway line. We're gonna miss that.

 

[Blue peter]

He won’t turn out to be a top player imho as he does not the mentality for it but we shall see

 

[maccavennie]

I hope for Villas sake he's a little more robust for them than he was for us. Fella absolutely loved being on his arse waving physios on when he'd barely been touched.

Good move for all concerned.

 

[Aldowl1]

All the stats had him as a phenomenon but my eyes tell me that Idrissa at the age of 62 had a better and more effective season than him, if we can buy some fast wingers with that 55 mil then its a good call by Kev and Dychey.

 

[matty1878]

Yep
He might turn out to be a top top player but he’s not what we need right now
Gana came back in and stepped up big time when we needed him

we need someone else in tho mate

 

[NeilMorepies]

At least he waited until he left before he dropped his debut single.

What a clown.

 

[Toffeepot]

hopefully we can unearth some badge patting wonderkid to replace him. Not easy

 

[Drico]

Good luck to him.

But at the end of the day he got dropped from the team when the going got tough.

And playing a "certain type of football" didn't cause him to make an ass of himself whilst missing a penalty.

In the end, his time at Everton will be remembered for an appalling penalty miss. That sums him up. Good riddance.
