Not sure how we set up if he signs. He is not a disciplined 6. We have a disjointed midfield partly because of quality but also because we keep on trying to play two in the middle and are over run. Allan's been criticised but Gana for me is simply a more mobile player version of Allan, although possibly a worse passer of the ball. Not against signing him but are we just replacing an existing player with a slightly better version. My point is that we have been desperate for a 6 and Gana is not the answer and I have no idea if Onana is either.

There is a reason Gueye has started for PSG in UCL semi finals and Allan is in Everton's reserves mate

I don't think a classic, purely defensive 6 is what you want with a back five. With a back four, the defensive 6 makes sense to allow the wing backs to move forward freely in attack while still ensuring you have 3 at the back. With five defenders, you already have your 3 staying back, so your midfielders don't need to be as defensively disciplined.
