'No wonder he concedes so many!' - Andre Onana leaves Man Utd fans baffled as he's spotted smothering gloves in vaseline amid Liverpool's siege on his net at Old Trafford

Onana was spotted using vaseline on his gloves during a busy first half against Liverpool, in which he was forced to make three saves. In total, he faced 15 shots in 45 minutes, but fans were left confused by the efficiency of using a slippery substance on his gloves, after seeing him concede to Luis Diaz.

WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

Applying vaseline to goalkeeper gloves is not a new tactic, as it actually makes the gloves stickier, and potentially makes it easier for stoppers to catch the ball. Newcastle United legend Shay Given and ex-Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart have both used the product in the past.

WHAT DOES THE VASELINE DO?

Onana has conceded 44 goals in 30 Premier League games this season and has kept eight clean sheets. It remains to be seen if the vaseline will help as the season progresses.

DID YOU KNOW?

Onana and United will next be in action against Bournemouth next weekend as they continue to aim for European qualification.
