He's a strong player physicality wise however he does need to work on his football intelligence and his passing and ability isn't anywhere near Douglas Luiz level in my view.
I do think signing Onana assists the defence and can go some way to addressing goals conceded.
That's the area that most needs addressing and Onana will offer stability as a 6 alongside Barkley.

Would like to see another midfielder in to address concern of Luiz leaving though.

There is nothing wrong with Onanas passing.

During Euro 2024, he had an average 90% passing accuracy per game. 92% of that was in his own half. 89% was in the opposition half.

During last years Premier League campaign, playing "Dycheball", he had an average 85% passing accuracy per game. 90% of that was in his own half. 81% of that was in the opposition half.

Which for the record, is pretty similar to Douglas Luiz Premier League campaign last season. (89% overall, 93% in own half, 80% in opposition half.)

So his passing ability is fine.

Especially within a team that actually plays passing football.

Come on now Onana is no Douglas Luiz the only metric he beats Dougie at is height!
As a 6 for Belgian in Euros he was over ran and ironically it was crying out for Your Tielemans to replace him in a game.

It's kind of necessary to have a few 6ft plus players in the teams now and of course Onana has quality other than his sheer size but I don't think he got the passing range , penalty nous or set piece ability and creativity of Luiz.

But he's got 5x the physicality, is willing to make a tackle (which Doug never did), and has a better discipline record because he's not caught out of position and has to tug a shirt to stop an opponent's fast break. Oh, and he's four years younger. Let's see where he progress to when he's 26.

Several people on here seem to be seeking the Dougie-replacement player. What if UE is not trying to replace one player with a carbon copy? Maybe UE is instead bringing players who all have a pass in them, who can all be quarterback when required.
We already have players like Ramsey, Rogers, Tielemans, Barkley, Bailey and Kamara who can see and hit a pass - either run-of-the-mill or Hollywood style - and I'm guessing that he sees the same in Barrenechea, I-J, Onana, Dobbin and Jaden.
If this is the case, then we are seriously building a squad that will ride the injuries and periods of off-form that most squads suffer from during a season.

I asked the other day why his English is so good but no one replied. Is it just because he's really clever, do we think?

Well going by what was on his tablet when pictured on the plane, he looked like he was watching Love Island, so maybe that's where he is getting a lot of his lessons. Although you did say his English was 'good', so maybe not.

He's fluent in a number of languages.
