An analysis video on Ederson or Allison like the David Raya video would be awesome! There’s not really any videos like this especially how well you analyze and present the information . Keep it up mate!
This guy would fit perfectly in a double pivot role next to FDJ. Onana is obviously more of a defensive CDM rather than someone who dictates the game, but that’s exactly what De Jong is at Barca. While Onana focuses more on stopping counters and winning the ball back, De Jong would be more of a deep lying playmaker and our outlet when we transition into an attack. They would compliment each other perfectly imo.
@@apollo-9725 bro de jong is not a deep lying playmaker he is more of a ball carrier. pedri and gundogan are better deep line playmakers than him . To pair with de jong we need someone who looks to set the tempo of the game someone like lobotka, kimmich , bennacer , zubimendi or wieffer.
Bro, Amadou Onana costs money. He wants a salary and Everton wants a fee. Barcelona has no money. Maybe you should look for cheaper transfer targets before you turn completely bankrupt after all.
Best scouting analysis on RUclips. This isn’t the type of player Arsenal need, we need a player that can act as a foil for Rice and can also replace him defensively when he’s not available. Zubimendi/De Jong/Vermeeren comes to mind. Arsenal run the risk of having a midfield with little build up phase progression if they misprofile another slot in their midfield
Maybe rice can play as a CM if we move onana into a 6 role? That would free up odegaard to basically go into free roam or play as a CAM , thus diversifying our attack. Just my two cents pseudo analysis as a fan.
Partey was on all of these rankings, he's injured. I have no clue when he'll be back, but it would be interesting to see him, declan and ode in the midfield.
Definitely agree that Liverpool feels like a much better fit than Arsenal, though I'd imagine Everton would be reluctant to sell to Liverpool. I'm also very interested to watch the Belgium midfield over the next few years. Onana, KDB, and Lavia seem like they could complement each other very well if they can stay healthy.
The analysis provided on this channel is elite. Informative whilst being able to provide your educated opinion is what I love most👏🏽 Feel like Zubimendi is what Arsenal should prioritise over Onana given Rice’s strengths and what we would lose with Partey & Jorginho potentially leaving in the summer
A great review. And I'm agree that players like FDJ, Zubimendi would fit Arsenal perfectly, but I think that Arsenal needs players like Onana to keep the leading score.
Great video bro, Quinten Timbers a good shout to do next, very interesting player linked to a prem move for a little while now, possibly to reunite with his brother at Arsenal
I've never requested a video before but if you could do one of Garnacho whenever you have a chance, that'd be much appreciated. Great work as usual. The biggest compliment i can think to give you is that your effort shines through in these videos.
that comment about pogba was just silly. Pogba was misporfiled his entire time here. Should’ve been free to go forward. He was clearly an attack first player.
As a fan of FC Bayern and following the ongoing debates about searching a defensive midfielder next to Kimmich....I´m asking myself why do they consider Palinha but not the younger and more talented Onana...
I think he's similiar with Casemiro in terms of playstyle. A physical player who doesn't afraid to engage duels but could offer more than Casemiro in possession. But I believe he's still too quick to move to big clubs like Liverpool or Arsenal. Would love to see him move to UEL or UECL level clubs like Brighton or West Ham
I think Onana could be just what United need. At least if we're gonna persist with the single pivot. Kobbie Mainoo can do it at times, but I'm not sure he's physical enough to do it against a team that are favoured to win the ball back a lot thru the center of the pitch with Eriksen (or Mount) and Bruno in the 8/10 positions. Having the choice between Mainoo and Onana depending on who we face could be really nice. And also Mainoo could be given more opportunities in the #8 and maybe develop his creativity higher up the pitch. When we would need to see out a game playing a double pivot with Onana and Mainoo sounds nice.
You're probably right about him being a better fit for Liverpool, but I don't think Everton will do business with us. I'd be amazed if they do business with us, haha.
Great video, could you do youssouf Fofana next. i don't rate Onana too highly. the modern game seems to be lacking CDMs with Rordi-type ability. united should stay far away from Onana, especially with the current setup, will end up being another morgan schneiderlin.
Revisiting this as an Arsenal fan. It makes me question why Arsenal might sell Partey. He’s one of the best #6s in the world when he’s fit, and Onana is way behind him in terms of passing.
When he is fit is the key term because his injury record in Arsenal is abysmal for a player who is the only one in the team who does what he does for the starting 11 since Rice seems to be pushed more as a no.8. Add age to that plus the optimum sell by date and we have got to prepare for life without him. Ever wonder why big clubs in Europe other than Juventus (who seem to be taking gambles on anyone now) are not willing to break the bank to buy him?
I think he would do well at Arsenal. Last season Zinchenko and Xhaka interchanged from DM and attacking midfield. Onana could be the missing piece for the Partey replacement Everton would never sell to Liverpool
Do Rodrygo next please bro. Quite an interesting one as he’s now playing on his favoured left flank in vini’s absence, and is arguably in the form of his life
You could already see Onana got some talent when he played in Zweite Bundesliga for Hamburger SV. It wasnt a big surprise that he quickly moved on for 2 digit million fee to a bigger site. But IMO he wont be a "world class dm/cm". He is for sure a good Premier League Player but not more not less.
I think He is not a JdP type of CDM. He is a functional 6. That's why I think Liverpool is the best fit out of all teams you considered, but we know Everton and LFC don't do business which is weird.
i feel like the gunshot noise at the start of these videos is too loud. The videos are amazing, my fav football analysis channel for sure, but god damn that intro breaks my ears every time
@@JB-kd9wg but then the commentary is too quiet and I need to turn it right back up. Its not an issue of the volume but the volume in comparison to the volume of the rest of the video. Also the gunshot is the first sound of the video so if what you where watching before was quiet and you had your volume up, it’s a harsh start.
I'm late to this vid but having listened to you explain his strengths and weaknesses, I think if Onana was to make a move then Man Utd would be the best fit. Especially now that Kobbie Mainoo has burst onto the scene. Onana's duelling can give Mainoo the platform to be more involved in the buildup/playmaking side of the team, and there'd be less pressure on Onana to be the main player in buildup initially. The two of them could rotate in and out of the build up phase and even in situations of who goes forward, depending upon the game state.
pythagoras, do you have any good idea of why, nowadays, we see a lot of players with extremely bizarre qualities, related to the position and the role they play? i was putting the blame on their coaches but it's so annoying seeing so many times, for example a winger who is explosive but can't dribble or only able in big spaces, with no ability to cross , who can't finish, play in a team that progresses the ball slowly. This kid Onana, watching his limitation regarding his technique, how many roles could a coach fit him into? a CM like Marchisio, a box2box like Vidal or an defensive midfielder like Makelele. He has those wonderful passes but he is 100% unable to play any of the 3 roles mentioned before. The distribution of qualities is so bizarre. You can see that with wide defenders too. Can't cross, can't defend properly and even wingerlike (see Tsimikas) who begin from that deep the best they put in a pitch is a good combination, a 1-2. It's frustrating. Why are we seeing players like that a lot?
funny thing imo is onana when hes able to use his physicality looks good but in prem not as easy at like when belgium faced sweden and he could just man handle entire swedish national team he looked elite but never rly looks same in club football
seeing how close cacideo was on the ball playing stats to partey ,we (arsenal) ,should just spent the whole budget om him and rice . i like onana but for me he suits more rock and role style of futbol funny enough him at liverpool or newcastle would be perfect.
Great video, thanks. Though I disagree on Arsenal - I don’t think what he’d add is as complex as you make out. He’d simply sit and allow rice to get forward, still in a 4231
If he was a Britain another £100 was demanded..for me he is the best..I had rather had him than rice..the only reason for that is his calmness on the ball..the technique..creativity..above rice strength of rice is only power and tackles which I can see onana has too..I would like to see another creativity player on the left 8 as ode on the right..for time being onana can act there..with rice behind him..and even when we need onana to sit there as single pivot he can do that too
i feel like if he played for anyone but everton, then lfc might have looked at him in the summer, same for branthwaite EDIT: any plans to look at Bajcetic btw? i think his potential is part of why Klopp was happy to go with Endo despite him being a bit older
Wouldn't he be better as a modern central defender ? A CD that is able to create danger in the other's box once in a while (a bit like guardiola did with John Stones)

@Pythagorasin it’s very difficult to see Arsenal buying a player without nearly enough skills and awarenesses
This guy would fit perfectly in a double pivot role next to FDJ. Onana is obviously more of a defensive CDM rather than someone who dictates the game, but that’s exactly what De Jong is at Barca. While Onana focuses more on stopping counters and winning the ball back, De Jong would be more of a deep lying playmaker and our outlet when we transition into an attack.

I don't get why we shouldn't go for him. We need another beast in midfield
Midfield is supposed to control games Onana and Rice win Duels... Arsenal will struggle to affect games with the ball
Partey was on all of these rankings, he's injured. I have no clue when he'll be back, but it would be interesting to see him, declan and ode in the midfield.
DE JONG???😂🤣🤣 WHY THE F*CK WOULD HE COME TO ARSENAL BRUH?😭

would be good in liverpool, if we get amorim he would be a beast in the double pivot
Never ever gonna happen. Hugely surprised that Phytagoras would even mention it at all

Now Onana has signed for Villa interesting to see how Emery can develop him. He has an amazing record of improving players.
Partey's forward passing stats are amazing and somewhat surprising. Greatly missed and one of the reasons Arsenal are scoring less.
Very underrated
His rape stats are good too

onana would be cover next season as zubimendi is the number one choice for arsenal in midfield
Great video I'm looking forward to see him play for Aston Villa I reckon Unai Emery will make him an even better player. UTV
Great signing when you consider a straight swap more or less for Luiz.
Could you do one on Artem Dovbyk of Girona?
Would be perfect for Barca CDM role, he is strong, has good pass vision... we need to get him at Barca!
The only way this signing makes sense is if Partey is leaving. Even then someone like Zubimendi is the preferred option
In FM terms... Ball winning midfielder - support
Suggesting an Everton player to Liverpool at adult level is quite something. I know it happens on academy level, but even that is frowned upon
