André Onana

[ADRossi]

looks like handa is first choice again boiz

i think taking some plusvalenza out of GK is a risky one - its such an important role and you arent gonna buy 2-3 keepers in the hope that one works out next season, so a flop in GK costs you a season

When you look at our plusvalenza options, Onana is the worst player. Barella, Lautaro, and Barella should be unsellable. Gosens, Dumfries, and Dimarco might have some plusvalenza built into them, but not much. Brozovic is probably too old, and I'd argue Calhanoglu is harder to replace.

 

[.h.]

Yes, but fungibility is just as critical. No point doing a shitty 20m plusvalenza if we need to take a big risk and get a new keeper

 

[Il Drago]

If we sold Onana i would go for Vicario.

 

[Helenio Herrera]

It's Chelsea. They'd bid €90m for him if he matches their philosophy. I think they'll go for shinier targets though, most likely one of Diogo Costa, Raya, Meslier or Trubin.

I also really like Vicario.

 

[Armes]

wtf already talks about getting sold?

Welcome to Suning's Inter. Everyone is for sale except the club.

 

[varmin]

A rumor that Chelsea approached Inter for Onana.

Milk them as much as possible and get Vicario.

 

[wera]

first buy Vicario

sell Brozo, Dumfries and Onana
do not keep Lukaku

revamp defence and attack

oh, AND SELL THE FUCKING CLUB ZHANG

 

[brehme1989]

Why are we confident that Vicario is the real thing?

Didn't we say the same thing about Cragno 2 years ago? And where is he now? Benched by our 4th choice keeper at the time...

Finding the right goalkeeper is not easy. Unless you know that he's been consistently around at a high level, anything else is a gamble. And there are those who never got lucky enough to have someone gamble on them (eg Skorupski or Dragowski) that could be well worth the trouble.


Chelsea is nuts enough to offer 100m for Onana, especially if we somehow end up in the CL final. I mean, even his biggest fan would say yes to that deal, even knowing that we'd barely reinvest 30m of that.

Think about it for a second. Handa was the last Serie A GK who made it. Since then we have had Perin Bardi Radu Cragno Gollini Donnaruma… who all have failed to step up. It has been 10+ years.

 

[wera]

Did Handa made it? He got like one Serie A to his name, but otherwise he is like the Spurs of goalkeepers, great when it doesn't matter, bad in important moments. Well okay, I'm overreacting, but the point stands.

I can thank him for his service, but he wasn't a Toldo or Julio Cesar. How many seasons did he have that he was solid throughout the whole season? His first two at Inter and his first season with Spalletti?

 

[brehme1989]

would have been cool if he scored in that late corner but our set pieces were pathetic

 

[Corrode]

wtf already talks about getting sold?

welcome to zhang suning family!
all the players and the money they get have been dedicated for the master of zhang family, suning company and new lambo!

 

[.h.]

The tabloids, which I don't really believe to be clear, are suggesting 40m+mendy for Onana.

If it's anything like that we are undoubtedly going to say yes

 

[Harpsabu]

Fuck that. No mendy. Just 60m. Buy vicario for that 20m instead.

I like onana but he's certainly replaceable. He's good and has potential to be great but it's just the reality of the situation for us I'm afraid. Sell high buy cheap

 

[varmin]

What is the salary of Mendy? It won't be too smart to replace Onana with a keeper who earns more and is worse than him, most probably .

 

[NimAraya]

Isn't Mendy injured? Isn't that why he doesn't play?

 

[IM21]

Isn't Mendy injured? Isn't that why he doesn't play?

no, he's being benched.

 

[NimAraya]

no, he's being benched.

But IIRC he was sidelined for a long time right?

 

[IM21]

But IIRC he was sidelined for a long time right?

my bad, he has been injured since the WC. But before that he was benched and only got into the starting lineup again before the WC, cause Kepa got injured... I also think even when he comes back, he'll be on the bench, cause Kepa has been doing good.
