Man United victory over Everton with a score of 3-0 in Week 13 of the Premier League was a breath of fresh air for the Red Devils. This victory reduced the criticism that had been aimed at them, and also became proof that Ten Hag was starting to find the right formula for his team. One of the things that stood out the most in the match was Onana appearance. The goalkeeper from Cameroon managed to record several important saves, I think Onana showed that he can be a worthy replacement for David de Gea.

Overall, United performance in this match deserves thumbs up. They appeared aggressive, showed a strong mentality and played solidly. This is an important asset for United to face another tough match against Galatasaray in the future in the UCL group stage, they need to prove once again that they have changed to the real path.

By the way, Onana has his fifth match since the start of the season in the EPL in which he didn't miss a single one goal. Even Ederson, Alyson and Vicario have fewer such matches, no one has that many in the EPL. That said, Onana hasn't become a top 1 goalkeeper and he will have mistakes in future games most likely. I just think Onana was criticized too much but he didn't deserve to be treated that way.
It's true that it's very possible to happen, Onana can make a mistake at any time, and no one can guarantee that it won't happen. But for now, I see that he is very integrated with United and especially with the defense, which is why he deserves to be said to be a replacement for De Gea, as I said. This needs to be proven in the match against Galatasaray later. Apart from that, to become top 1 I think it requires other support for Onana to reach that level, I mean without United wins and consistency this cannot be achieved by individual performance alone. Because his position really depends on whether the team performance, is good or not, especially the back line they.
