In the middle of our best run we faced a Liverpool side that was in the middle of a bad run minus their 2 best attacking players and we couldn't beat them.....AT HOME!

this isn't ludo na hehehehe. I remember their best team lost 0-2 at home haha

.

ChristineC:
true that. I agree.
One point is still better than non. It was always going to be a game of fine margins.
I still think the coaches' A and B tactics were efficient, only limited by some[b] incompetent personnel[/b].

The players were competent. Pogba is competent he just had a bad day. He failed to score from a clear cut chance and gave away a penalty while losing possession throughout. But it happens.

Phil Jones lost concentration in one moment but Rojo came to his rescue. Rojo on his part could have put the ball in throw-in instead of corner kick, the Liverpool closest to him was playing from clear offside position at the time. But the lads were a bit nervous . Jones stopped a lot of one vs one with their forwards while also making many clearances and blockings.

Carrick was okay but the coach wanted to cut off the midfield in the second half.

Only Darmian I don't always like. I wish Shaw could return and hit proper form.

elampiro:


They also couldn't beat us at Anfied when we were playing poorly. They didn’t do well there.

Yeah. That was the match in which JM parked the bus. We have dropped too many unnecessary points already this season and if we don't start beating other top 6 teams especially at home we won't make top 4. We need to beat the other top teams and deny them points, beating the small teams and getting draws or losses against the big teams won't be enough.

incompetent on the day is what I mean. of course they are all good pros, we know they can do much better. It's still a long way to go.

Ok

Pogba had his worst game as a professional today.....he was terrible but that should not count against him because he has been superb for almost a month now! Every player has an off day at some point in time!


Our defenders also need to start taking more risks with their forward play and should help build attacking moves from deep and our forwards need to be put on some intense finishing training because 90 percent of them don't seem to know what to do once we are approaching the opponents box! All these up balls also need to be curbed, it's better when you are chasing a game to be calm and keep the ball on the ground!

Jose should have gone for Rashford instead of fellaini but these things happen...men make I go puff one mad spliff come go attack my madam nether regions....at least I know say my finishing no go be like man u forward line own!

Lana1:

So we still can't beat any of the top teams..

Mourinho and his stupïd subs

Spurs?

I actually think this will be more than enough.

People just like to dwell on negativity too much.
Even the performance today wasn't nearly as bad as the reaction.
Sometimes we need to look at the big picture.
16 games unbeaten, all comps. The team Is playing good and exciting football again.

Sometimes I dey tire men.

Lana1 I just dey use corner eye dey look you and your anti mourinho brigade.
Kwontinue...

A few (really unfortunate) draws that time and many people were declaring top 4 gone.
I wonder if there's still anyone with this opinion.

And let's stop acting like ALL our rivals will beat ALL the 'small' teams they'll face, making it look like our managing to beat these teams (if/when we do) will be useless

Imagine Guardiola was coaching us, with all our indoctrinated negativity by LVG, where would we be right now?
Look at the squad he inherited and has turned them to something else.

I pity this man, cos by the time everyone sees him as vulnerable in the EPL, it'll be a hopeless case.

Una no know anything!
Even the Unai Emery some of you were shouting about has turned out a dud.

guardiola is still ahead of mourinho, that makes mourinho a bigger fraud. Guardiola this guardiola that at least he has beaten man u and arsenal, who did mourinho beat out of the traditional teams.

will man u beat all the small team it will face.

I just saw the Everton-Mancity highlights and I must say, Bravo was very very poor. Dude should've saved a couple of the goals.

Ademola Lookman's finish is what delights me though. I pray he grows well and leads the Super Eagles lineup in the future.

He MAY not feature for the Eagles unless he's not called up by England.

Wilfried Zaha comes to mind.

sometimes you need to calm down and understand what someone is trying to say before quoting... Seriously.

BushWickBill:

He can play for England's U-20 , 21 or 23 side but as long as he hasn't played for their senior side he is eligible to play for Nigeria.

It's totally up to him.

After playing for England's junior teams Zaha was almost tied to the 3 Lions (he has been called to the senior team and even featured in a friendly match) but now he plays for Ivory Coast. Sharp guy

some people really hate pogba sha , poor performance from my guy, but the hate here too much abeg.

Why nah

The penalty was actually the problem. If we had scored first, we would have won by 3-1.

We are doing well. If we continue this way, we will finish top four. We were very unlucky with officiating in the first half of the season.

Look at the table when we played 13, 14 matches and now. We eeet10 points behind our rivals. We are now five points behind them.

maybe what u typed is in portuguese. Your rivals wont beat all the small teams and you would beat all the small teams abi.

purplekayc:
Why nah

second or third time he would do such in the last 7 months, same against palace in the fa final.

I just hope that he doesn't play for the senior team.

purplekayc:
Why nah

Which touch-line bust up is that?

BushWickBill:


Yeah.

Kelechi n Iwobi need peeps like Lookman to join em
