Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has revealed he will talk with Andre Onana but continue to back him despite his poor form.
It appears Altay Bayindir will have to wait longer to make his debut for the club as ten Hag has not lost faith in Onana yet.

The Cameroon international made yet another mistake in the 3-2 defeat against Galatasaray in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Onana made a huge error in the defeat against Bayern Munich on Match Day 1 and his mistake against Galatasaray resulted in a penalty being awarded and Casemiro being sent off trying to rectify the blunder.
The keeper has now conceding 18 times in his first 10 appearances for the club.
“I have to talk with more players, but I also have to talk with Andre of course. I will do and I will back him, because he’s a great goalkeeper,” Ten Hag told reporters after the game when quizzed about Onana.
“We are happy with our goalkeeping group.
“Definitely with Andre, and Andre was in one semi-finals of the Champions League, last season he was in a final of the Champions League, he has the capabilities to be one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
“He showed that and he will do. We have already seen in games his great capabilities, also his personality after he made a mistake. He will bounce back and I’m sure he will do in the coming games as well.”
Bayindir is available and could end up getting his break if Onana continues to make mistakes but as things stand he remains second in line.
The Turkish international is likely to get playing time when Onana leaves for the Africa Cup of Nations but will be hoping to break into the team before then.
