KingAlabi:
I might even argue this sef, for me the difference is mbappe is more serious and has more natural talent than rashford.

So you believe Mbappe has more natural talent AND he is even more serious...........................SO what are you arguing about?

If the major championship winners (World Cup, Continental Cups, UCL) do not have a standout player AND no player dominates those major tournaments the Ballon d'Or will go to one of the form players of the domestic leagues and this is where Lewandoski, Suarez, Kane come in.

That is the logical thing to do rather than just picking one average player because his team won a major tournament, even though he was not outstanding in that competition.

The only Chelshit player with a glimmer of hope was Kante, and that sliver of light was dimmed yesterday. However there is still enough time either for a standout player in the Copa or Euros OR someone to start the next season on a tear. The 2nd scenario is what gave Weah and Ronaldo WPOTY in 1995 and 1996 respectively.

You told us he will molest Spanish farmers. Now it looks like Spanish farmers dey rough am inside Spanish farm

E be like say Spanish famers get herdsmen too. LMAO

I have never heard so many excuses for a footballer's irresponsible eating habits.

Mrviktor:
I hope we develop this guy oh.

Elanga

Elanga getting ready for the next season. For next season Elanga, Amad, Greenwood, Mejbri combo no go bad for some cup games.

nitrogen:
You guys should stop washing our players jare. Rashford is a better player. Na pace and speed Mbappe get.

So Rashford too no get pace and speed?

Mbappe had a crappy tournament but IMO he is still a better player than Rashford. However for his own good he had better leave PSG because he can't fulfill his potential by playing against shoemakers and mechanics on a weekly basis.

Skimpledawg:
Hazard na better fowl Doc

E shock you? Imagine having to lock buns and puff puff inside cupboard to keep the greedy boy from finishing everything during the night.

So na buns kill Hazard career?

popizaino:
Giving the captain armband to your most skilful player or players who love to have the ball at their feet all the time has to be the most stupid decision to be ever taken by a coach. Luis Felipe Scolari who started the trend should be questioned if he understands the psychological impact of captain armband on this kind of players .

How can you drop pseudo-information so confidently like person wey carry orijo enter exam hall?

Thought Police don enter this thread.

Fernando Santos should remove Palhinha before he gets a red card. Danilo can come in and do a job.

timay:
BTW, his job description as an AM is to spam passes into the box. That is what creates chances.

timay:
Nothing wrong with him though. Club football and international football are not the same. Him flopping at euros doesn't count for much . As good as Rooney was, he was always shit at international competitions for England aside for his debut Euro tournament in 2004.

Also, the guy needed some break. Cos he's obviously fatigued from too much games. The fact that he wasn't even running around and pressing hard for the national team the way he used to do for man utd says a lot

O

Bruno had better recalibrate himself. It’s not only by spamming passes into the box.

Maybe he has been listening to his fan boys here who believe there is nothing to criticise in his game.

OJURONGBE1:
The video must have been leaked by one of his staff, not because its the right thing to do but because of Hancock's hypocritical nature.
The Sun also reported that; the bald head didn't feel sober about his affair. Immediately, he resigned, he went home and told his wife of over 15years that their marriage was over.

The guy went to Uni with both his babe and his wife. He has probably been kpanning that woman for decades. The husband should go and carry out DNA tests on their children.

Roland17:
Based on wetin na? I would only entertain this narrative if it’s based on making adjustments..

Lol. You asked the question AND you answered it yourself.

Roland17:
As M. Verratti stock take drop over the last two seasons dey worry me.. Injury Na bad tin!

He also lives an undisciplined lifestyle. All that alcohol and partying will always come back to bite you.

BlueMann:
Be like say Chris don dey play for the middle of the defence sef, now that Kjaer is off. At least that's where I'm seeing him.

You are right. The perks of versatility.

Cornelius the Voltron.

BlueMann:
Aswear d man dey tweak anyhow

I wasn't sure Chris was playing in midfield considering that Hojbjerg and Delaney were starting, but that was where he was at the time.

Now I don dey see am for that RCB position.

He started Chris at RCB and then i think when things got a bit tight and Bale was finding pockets of space in front of their box he pushed him into midfield to support Hojberg and Delaney while he pulled the WBs back to be orthodox FBs.

After going 2-0 up he pulled Chris back to RCB and and reverted to using WBs.

This Denmark manager dey confuse everybody with his tweaking.

Christensen has dropped back to RCB.

BlueMann:
Chris plays in midfield for Denmark

He is playing at RCB not midfield. They are playing a 3-4-3. The midfield is Hojberg/Delaney.


Correction. You are right. He has moved into midfield.

Greatihex:
You don't remember them because you were still little and didn't understand what you were watching. It happened to everyone. Rest.

E choke.

Oasis007:
How good is Verane?! Is an upgrade on Lindelof?!

Varane is miles better than Lindelof. He is one of the best CBs available and he will bring more confidence to Maguire as he does not need babysitting, unlike Lindelof.

Sancho, Varane, and a complete CDM would be a very good transfer window.

Rudiger just stand for no man’s land like Okorocha statue.

Ty Lue is really Belichick.

Book has to take this personal going forward. You can’t give Pat Bev that kind of satisfaction.

Singapore1:
Rudiger is out of position, hummel had to cover for rudiger, you can see hummel directing ginter pointing at SZALAI, ginter is suppose to either mark Szallai or keep him onside ... i will not argue it again ...

Rudiger is out of position, YES............But what was Hummels covering for him? Was there any Hungarian player there?
Why would you leave a man in the box to go and be covering potential space outside the box?

That left space had no Hungarian there and anyway Rudiger, the German LWB, and a covering midfielder were in that area goal side of the 2 Hungarians that were moving in .
The danger was in the box and right side where Hummels left an overload of 3 Hungarians vs 2 Germans.

Rudiger shares blame for traveling into midfield when there was no real reason too.

Hummels takes a large chunk of the blame for marking nobody and leaving his junior partners Kimmich and Ginter to mark 3 Hungarians while he was pointing finger like an ageing Taribo.

Maybe Ginter could have done a better job of covering but he was left in no man's land by Hummels who gave him the job of marking to 2 Hungarians.

uptimumOne23:
President Buhari with the good heart. No wonder why Nigerians love you.

Same thing he did for Biafran war veterans but the most annoying part is some hypocrites still don't appreciate him.

Sha be doing your own for God Baba Buhari

Uptimumu.

ChristineC:
I still don't get how the board planned this.
about £50m was thrown at RW position last summer.
if this *£75m* is thrown at same position this summer, hmmm... how's the balance happening?
for all we know, he's staying and nobody will be surprised if Martial becomes an in-form Nani through out next season. aside Pogba, he's the only guy who can be sold for a reasonable fee.
there's still a small matter of a DM / CB.
Roma is courting Matic and Tuanzebe is pushing for a loan deal, so we'd be left with Mengi & the Fisch guy in reserve. I didn't count Bailly, we know his itinerary.
the size of transfer purse is yet to be seen though but I'm guessing Pogba will be on the table.

You are carrying out all these calculations with the assumption that we have sensible people running the club.

Mrviktor:
365days later..
1 naira no commot from what dey wanted last year.. This is so dumb

Like why u no just pay the money last year.
U just waited 365 days more to pay the same amount that they would have accepted last year.. 95M. Making us end up with VDB that barely started up to 10 games


Mehnnn..

You got it wrong. Dortmund wanted 95-100 million POUNDS last year (about 120 million EURO). Now they are willing to sell for 81 million POUNDS (about 95 million EURO), though United are offering about 72 million POUNDS (about 85 million EURO).

In essence the fee has dropped by about 20 million pounds in the last 12 months.

handelex:
Renato has really picked up after his dip. Had a very solid game yesterday. Wouldn't mind him at United tbh.

He made that big move too early. Hopefully he kicks on cos he has all the elements needed to be a world class box to box player.

DeadPresidents:
Palhinha looks tailor-made for us IMO. I really like his distribution and how strong he is on the tackle.

We even have a favorable business relationship with Sporting CP which we can leverage to best effect. It's like God created that club to produce class talents for Manchester United

Na dem dey supply babes for us anytime congi catch us.
