Ranking Andre Onana's worst Man Utd mistakes: From costly Champions League slips to proving Nemanja Matic right in Lyon

The last few days have been a very difficult period for Andre Onana. It began with him giving what he must have thought was a harmless post-match interview after the Manchester derby in which he was asked for his opinion on Lyon by a journalist ahead of their Europa League quarter-final tie.

His answer, which included the crucial line that he thought the Red Devils were "way better" than the Ligue 1 side, was repeated to Nemanja Matic before the first leg, and the former United midfielder gave one of the most brutal responses imaginable. Matic described Onana as "one of the worst goalkeepers in the history of Manchester United" and his words, which Onana chose to ill-advisedly respond to on social media, made the Cameroonian the focal point of the tie.

Onana's blundering performance in the 2-2 draw in France meant that he was cast as the villain at full-time, and he has remained in the spotlight since, even though Ruben Amorim decided to leave him out of the squad for Sunday's Premier League loss against Newcastle. The United coach has confirmed that Onana will start the second leg against Lyon at Old Trafford, which could make or break United's season.
