Amadou Onana

[Legend14]

Like the player. Starter quality at 6. Solves our “what if Partey gets hurts” problem.

If we really want Rice, not sure why we would target such a talent at 6.

And, of course, we should have sign when he was cheaper.

 

[ArsenesCoatMaker]

Quite bizarre to be fixated on an attrubute & its supposed detriment to a player when our own captain & legend, Patrick Vieira, all 6'4 of him, was never negatively impacted

Mate but Vieira is 6'4 and this dude is apparently 6'5, that extra inch kills his footballing ability

Go onto page “6” on the Onana thread to see the comment itself.

Bellerin, Ramsey, Diaby, Partey and now Onana have joined the “Mitchlist of hate”.

This was quite clearly joke and jibe against the people with an agenda against any player under 5'10 and reffered them to as midgets and instantly dimissed them as being good enough.

Also I was proven right with Bellerin, Ramsey and Diaby wasn't I?

Bissouma and Wanyama- most of who wanted them when I didn't and I proven right again.

Glad partey has dramatically improved very recently, and hopefully he can keep this form up.

Onana is 6'5 like Koulibaly was 6'5 until Napoli realized he was 6'1. Built like a tank but nothing like the height they believed it was

Im 6ft 3 ffs what is this height bs all about?

 

[DanDare]

Looking at highlight videos, he loves a slide tackle and seems great at breaking up play. Didn't see many passes in the highlights

Anyone shed any light on his passing? People talking him as a Partey heir but Partey's best skill is passing not breaking up play

Who the f*ck knows where it started.

Suffice to say, it had all parts of the AM bingo for typecasting players of African descent.

Football IQ (or lack thereof)
Height
Aggression

All that was missing was a mention of dreadlocks to complete the set

Built like a tank, seems more Built like professional darts player to me.

I would say Partey best quality is not his passing but his ability to evade the press like Torreira.

can't believe netflix bought utopia rights then didn't even make a remake but stopped UK one continuing

 

[Mitch]

Don't think Mitch rates Vieira honestly.

What I have done to suggest that?Because I said Bissouma and Wanyama weren't good enough for arsenal? There is a massive gulf in class between them two and Vieira if you hadn't noticed.

I've Always praised Vieira. Hell I'm probably one of handful old enough on here that actually remeber seeing him playing.

From Italian pasta to West London grease vans. Fat boy's loving life almost as much as Arshavin after his second season with us with handful of Metro McDonald's discount vouchers.

I blame chanel 4 for cancelling it because Geordie shore was killing it the ratings.

It was HBO that bought the rights and had David fincher signed as director and the cast but pulled just before production over disagreement over budget costs.Then it got shelved for years before Amazon bought the rights. Less said about the American version the better.

Most underrated show ever and my favourite show after Game Of Thrones and the Wire.

 

[Heavy Duty Rom]

Expand on this please.

Do I really need to?

 

[Dennis_Bergkamp_10]

As I don't know the player, I've looked at an Everton forum how they feel about him. Given that he plays in such a **** side for only half a year in England as a young player, we shouldn't be too harsh.

They think he's a young guy with outstanding potential and most don't hope they'll sell. Also, he was absent at training because he was going to a wedding supposedly.

oh wow, didn't know they eventually made a US version. yeah man it's great. GoT doesn't belong in the same conversation as the wire or utopia tho man

Basically you have to accept that football isn't for you

 

[Mitch]

Are you implying that Onana isn't good technically (I can't recall see him playing so don't know). Pep and Arteta love their technical and intelligent players.
