Was dumping David de Gea for Andre Onana Man United's biggest mistake? How the former Red Devils star is massively outperforming his replacement at new club Fiorentina

David de Gea is outperforming Andre Onana in pretty much every metric, prompting the question: were Manchester United right to replace him?

The Spaniard left Old Trafford after 12 years in the summer of 2023 after failing to agree terms on a new contract.

He was replaced by £43million signing Andre Onana, who had just reached the Champions League final with Inter Milan and used to play under Erik ten Hag at Ajax.

Onana has arguably been among United's better performers this season but a series of high-profile blunders over his 18-month stay, including one leading to a goal against Brighton on Sunday, have seen him questioned.
