Andre Onana Faces Criticism at Manchester United, but Emerges as Premier League’s Top-Rated Goalkeeper. Since his arrival at Manchester United from Inter Milan, Cameroonian goalkeeper Andre Onana has faced heavy criticism from fans and pundits due to a shaky start at the club. Replacing club legend David De Gea, Onana joined United for a transfer fee of over £47 million, reuniting with his former boss at Ajax, Erik Ten Hag.

However, Onana’s journey at Old Trafford began with a run of poor results, conceding over 30 goals in his first 15 matches for the club. The disappointing start led to doubts about his ability to perform at the highest level.

Nevertheless, recent performances have seen Onana turn the tables on his critics. According to Whoscored, the 24-year-old has been named the highest-rated goalkeeper in the Premier League following his latest outing. In a 3-0 victory against Everton at Goodison Park, Onana played a crucial role in securing United’s fifth win in their last six league matches.

With five clean sheets in 13 appearances, Onana leads the league in this category. His save percentage stands at an impressive 76.1%, with only Alisson Becker boasting a better rate. These statistics contribute to his overall rating of 6.96, the highest in the Premier League according to Whoscored.

Despite the initial criticism, Onana’s recent performances have demonstrated his resilience and ability to excel between the posts. While Tottenham’s Gugliemo Vicario follows closely with a rating of 6.92, Alisson Becker completes the top three with a rating of 6.84.

As the season progresses, Onana’s strong performances and consistent presence in goal will be vital for Manchester United’s aspirations. With his ability to make crucial saves and keep clean sheets, Onana is gradually silencing his doubters and establishing himself as a top goalkeeper in the Premier League.
