Jonny Evans backs Andre Onana to succeed at Man United after error-strewn start to life at Old Trafford and insists the £47m shot-stopper is following a similar path to David de Gea

Jonny Evans has got behind under-pressure Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana following his difficult start to life as the club's new number one.

The shot-stopper took the blame for United's lacklustre 4-3 Champions League group stage defeat against Bayern Munich in midweek after producing another struggling performance.

The German side opened the scoring after Leroy Sane's tame effort somehow broke through Onana's hands and into the back of the net with the £47m summer arrival admitting afterwards he had 'let the team down'.

However, Evans has joined other United team-mates in supporting the Cameroonian with captain Bruno Fernandes similarly stating 'he hasn't got to take any blame'.
