Nah Martinez from Villa, World Champion.

Or we stick with Mendy, former European Champion and ACoN Champion.

I don’t get the hype around Martinez; sure he is a character and he makes decent saves, he just isn’t a modern goalie. 
Onana is probably the closest goalie to an Alisson or Ederson in the modern game. He is very good with his feet, press resistant and not a bad shot stopper.

    He looked a GK to be, better than the ones we got. So a deal involving Lukaku going the other way, surely Inter will take the deal, right?🤫

    Lol yeah if we can swap Lukaku for him then I say welcome Onana. Inter cannot be that stupid, Rom screwed them last night.

    I was extremely impressed with him to be honest, looks a level above our current keepers for sure. 

    He was fine. Nothing he could do about the goal. Two defenders directly in line with Rodri who bent the ball around them. He wouldn't have seen the pill till the last second. In fact, I thought Ederson looked shakier.

    Really? I was very impressed with this ability on the ball, he beat City's press multiple times. 

    The thing with this sort of stuff is that it is a bit of a confidence thing.. when mendy started out he looked average with his feet, great at commanding the box and short stopping.. as his form dropped his weakness got amplified.. 

    Onana also makes mistakes and he seems a character.. wasn’t he banned for 6-7 months?

    I like my footballers old school like Kante silva who are never in the news.. I would rather we try to rekindle mendy than spend obscenely on another keeper.. we seem to be finally getting a new manager after a fraud and a manager out of his depth.. 

    There is no keeper in world football who is more confident and unbothered than Onana 

    his technique is brilliant 

    he is up there with Ederson as the best footballing goalkeeper. And i think Onana is a better shot stopper than Ederson. His reflexes are absolutely insane + he is a bit of a character who is aggressive and confrontational in a good way 

    the only downside is that he isn't very tall but he makes up for that with his insane speed and agility 

    and what you will see is that he will overplay sometimes which will result in some mistakes at times, but that's expected when you want your goalkeeper to play out from the back

    i would definitely love to see him at Chelsea 

    he speaks French, English and Spanish (having come from the Barcelona academy) and probably a bit of italian by now

    he fits the profile perfectly. He can play a couple of years and then Slonina can be brought to compete with him

    Isn't he the one who got banned for drug test failure the other year?

    Yup. 12 months. Said he took one of his wife's tablets my mistake. A diuretic, not banned per se, but can be used as a masking agent.

    Tinfoil hat on.  Aren’t most top athletes taking something now a days.  Remember the rumours of the Liverpool team a couple of years ago, or Lance Armstrongs Dr saying he had footballers, tennis players, and boxers as clients?  The money in performance enhancing drugs and drugs to mask is massive, yet the money to detect drug cheats is miniscule. The cheats are always 2 steps ahead.  
    The tiny punishments for this used to really bug me but now I don’t really care anymore. It’s like it’s a well known secret in the sports world and no one really cares anyway.
