‘C**p’ Andre Onana criticised by Man United fans as ball slips through hands for Conor Gallagher’s Chelsea goal
Manchester United fans vented their frustrations with Andre Onana after he failed to stop Conor Gallagher’s opener for Chelsea.
Just four minutes into the clash at Stamford Bridge, Malo Gusto’s cross deflected off Raphael Varane and into Gallagher’s path, and the Blues academy graduate fired his side in front.

Taking to X, one said: “Just saw it again, Onana should save it. It’s poor.”
“That’s c**p from Onana that is..” added talkSPORT’s Mark Goldbridge.
A third said: “We signed Onana to because he could use his feet, but that’s no use when you refuse to use them when trying to stop shots.”

Things got worse for Erik ten Hag’s men on 19 minutes as ex-Manchester City man Cole Palmer scored a penalty after Antony tripped Marc Cucurella in the box.
Onana has now conceded 65 goals in his debut season for United, doing so in 41 appearances across all competitions.
It’s also the 20th time he has let at least two goals in during a match for the club.

Many United fans believe Onana should have saved the shotCredit: TNT SportsUnited responded soon after when Alejandro Garnacho raced through on goal and slotted past Djordje Petrovic.
Bruno Fernandes then equalised moments later before Garnacho scored his second of the game midway through the second-half.
However, United crumbled and two late goals from Palmer sealed a dramatic 4-3 victory for Chelsea.
The visitors had seemingly won all three points by stoppage-time, but it was the Blues who miraculously came out on top in wild scenes.
