    WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

    Supporters have reacted with near-unanimous delight at the news Onana may be missing.

    @IamthebangK said: "Good news, I hope he never starts for a few game too. We're tired of his errors."

    @daniels21220856 wrote: "Keep him away from the goal, better get any other goalie in!"

    @IkehJesus said: "The best news I have heard today."

    @Rayinatorsport added: "Ik some of the fans are going to be celebrating this and I would be okay with this. But if Bayindir and Heaton are out who on earth are we playing?"

    @AaronMain7 said: "No Onana in goal today, actually excited to see a youth player in goal and see how he does."


  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Onana has played in every Premier League game thus far this season and has conceded 40 goals. He has kept a total of seven clean sheets. Mee, by comparison, is a Northern Ireland U21 international, who has fast become the Red Devils' No.1 at U21 level.
