Speaking about Andre Onana’s debut season at Man United, Mark Bosnich told FourFourTwo: “I watch a lot of football around Europe, and I had the pleasure last season of watching him help propel Inter to the Champions League final, and also do so well in Serie A.
“He was absolutely exceptional, so I thought when he went to Manchester United, that was a really good buy. He’d been with Erik ten Hag before at Ajax, he’d been a youngster at Barcelona, he’s very adept at playing out, too.
“But for quite some time this season, he was very disappointing. There was a feeling that every time a shot came, he was going to let one in. I don’t really know what was happening there.
“He’s not as protected at Manchester United, though. I felt for him. The greatest test for any goalkeeper is the Premier League, because you're not as protected as in Italy, where defending is an art form. At Inter, he was very well protected by their three centre backs.
“Slowly but surely though, you could see signs there that he’s been getting a grip of things. I know there's a lot of people that still think ‘Yeah, but’. Recently though, especially the first half against Liverpool, I thought he was outstanding.”
Onana has definitely been exposed to a lot of opposition threat in his debut campaign at Old Trafford, with the Red Devils allowing over 300 shots in their last 14 games itself.
Despite making prominent errors in the first half of the season, especially in the Champions League group staghes, the Cameroonian goalkeeper has improved his performances in recent months.
The 28-year-old has made 41 appearances for Man United so far this season, keeping 12 clean sheets in all competitions.
