Boateng is truly world class

Lol Elampiro no go kill person.

Nihilist:
I think the lack of a left back in that team is a problem.

Bale and Henry would keep getting on each others way as the both like to drive into central positions from out wide.

I would play 442 with zidane left, Bale right, and Essien at Left back.

Zidane at left midfield drifting into the midfield, Essien a right footer playing at left back also cutting inside? There would be no real width on the left, it wouldn't work that way.

Tahith Chong is the player I'm most optimistic about in our youth set up...

There was a lot of hype about him coming over from Holland. He looks good and has the advantage with his height and speed that will possibly become more of an advantage as he gets older and bigger. This is in contrast to someone like DJ Buffonge who is smallish and already looks like he has maxed out his height.
However it is just too early to know which of them will make good on the talent. Which of them comes from a dysfunctional background like Ravel Morrsion, or which one has an almost neurotic desire for success like Ronaldo......we just don't know.

PietroRico:
There is a lot of noise about our current u18 set up.
Does anyone have actual insight on them?
Should the noise be taken seriously?

Cc afrodoc2 kagawa10(cant remember your current moniker)

One should not take noise about an under18 set up too seriously because not all of those players will progress as expected and also frustratingly it is difficult to predict which of them will progress. e.g Lingard and Michael Keane were probably 2 of the least talented of their group but apart from Pogba they are the ones making news professionally.
Having said that Gomes, Buffonge, Tahith Chong and Boonen look quite talented. Buffonge and Gomes are quite quick and tricky though small sized and Boonen while not athletically gifted appears the most intelligent of the lot. Very early days though, you never know if you are watching the next Ravel Morrison or the next Ryan Giggs.

Its a little worse these days because the ojoro is so brazen and in your face. Three judges all scored the fight the exact same 114-113. I'm not sure I've seen anybody that gave that fight to Ward in the entire webspace.

When you watch am you go see

I just watched it. Not as obvious a robbery as you said, so many close rounds.
Kovalev won early rounds and Ward won the 2nd half of the fight.....maybe edge to Kovalev but you can't bet against the Son of God !

OK let me confess Kovalev edged it maybe 7 rounds to 5, plus the knockdown, plus being champion he should have had the decision go in his favor.

Ward is no light heavy weight, he didn't even have real knockout power at supper middle weight. He needs to fight one more regular super middle weight guy maybe middle of next year then go down in weight and fight the winner of GGG vs Canelo.....but these promoters won't give the people what they want.

A40:
@afrodoc Nihilist

Did you see the way they robbed Kovalev last night? Boxing is fast going to shyte with these rubbish and borderline corrupt judges

Boxing has been corrupt for ever, remember Hagler vs Sugar Ray Leonard?
The major problem now is dearth of quality boxers and very crucially the dodging of quality opponents....

I was at work, recorded it though so i will watch it tonite. I also heard it was robbery . i wanted Ward to win but fairly though.
With the fact that Kovalev was the naturally bigger man and with Ward's inactivity for the last couple of years it was always going to be tough for Ward. You have to remember Kovalev knocks light heavy weights out for fun and has actually KILLED a man in the ring.

Hahaha

So you sef watch "After the storm" that year..

Teacher Chike & Emotan loving up in 'Tamodi' Village

Has Marcos Rojo been sold yet? I hardly hear complaints about him anymore...

You mean your "next Vidic"?
Why should there be complaints about him when he has hardly played?
You have mouth to talk now that your club Sunderland and your darling manager Moyes have won a couple. All that is left to take you to nirvana is for YOUR CLUB SUNDERLAND to sign Rojo, Fellaini and Adebayo Akinfenwa in January.

Please accept my commiseration on the injury to YOUR ALL TIME FAVOURITE MIDFIELDER .....LEE CATTERMOLE.

Roque Santa cruz is a player about to retire from football

He would be retiring from international football soon. This player would be remembered for scoring an average of 5 Bundesliga goals per season. His first season in premier league 19 goals

A player who scored 31 goals in 8seasons in the Bundesliga scored 19 goals in his first season of EPL

He would be wondering why he didnt discover the EPL quicker a league where a joke like SantaCruz can score 19 goals should be sent to LAWMA for proper disposal

U got me there, he scored 31 goals in 155 burndisliga matches for an average of 0.2 goals per game and he scored 26 goals in 86 league goals in EPL for an average of 0.3 goals per game.

But how many own goals must Anthony "2 left legs" Modeste score in order to match his EPL record of 0.0000 goals per game. The same Modeste who has scored 11 goals in only 9 matches this season. That league that should be flushed down one of Otunba Gadaffi's toilets is making Modeste look like C.ronaldo.....o ma se o

raumdeuter:
Abi oooo

They should tell us the season Berbatov was top screr in the Bundesliga while I can tell them the year Berbatov was top scorer in EPL

That EPL na yeye league a league where Berbatov was top scorer

Berbatov was top scorer in EPL we no go hear word.

In the last 10 years in the Gbongbolosliga Alexander Meier, Stefan Kiesling, Edin Dzeko, and Grafite have been top scorers.

If Edin "over the bar" Dzeko and Grafite and Theofanis Gekas could be top scorers in that league they should play the matches behind closed doors henceforth.

The list of the top scorers in the Blomblomsliga can be found only in the Who is not Who of World Football

A40:
He was so shyte Middlesbrough named him their player of the season.

Injuries didn't let him reach his potential at the other clubs.

I doubt people even know Ziege played for Bayern without the help of google. Overall he played better for country than club IMO

Middlesborough player of the season? Wow what an achievement. He powered them to a bottom half finish.

He was not a Bundesliga reject that dominated in the EPL, correct your junior broda dasall. And neither was Berbatov or Ballack a reject.

Now if we are talking about people who came, saw and were conquered in the EPL Anthony Modeste and Claudio Pizarro will make the list.

Pizarro a laughing stock among many Chelsea fans is the 5th highest goal scorer in the history of the Bonedisliga

A40:
Ziege chairman at Bayern? Ogini na fio? We can also say Phil Jones is a chairman at Manyoo, Paolo Ferreira chairman at Chelsea

I said COMPARED to the shite he served in the EPL. Your ignorant grammarian friend mentioned Ziege as an example of a Burndisligyansh reject who did well in EPL. I had to correct him that Ziege actually had the best years of his career in the German league and was a relative failure in the EPL

Dopejemi and Lana abeg make una sheathe swords.
You guys are 2 correct guys, no need for the insults IMO.

We all want the best for the club, we just have different views of how this can be achieved.

Personally i believe Mourinho could have done better this season especially with the expenditure and the players we have. However we have to support him as manager and see how things pan out. Sacking him now or even at the end of the season is unlikely to solve the problem
UNLESS it is a 60yr old SAF who is getting the job next.

Anthony Modeste that looked like a King of Comedy in the EPL is now one of the Kings of the Burnthisshitdown.

0 goals in 9matches over 6 months contributing his own part in ensuring Blackburn got relegated, ambling around the pitch like an Area Boy looking for olosho.
He moved to Burnthisspliffdown and became an Area Father scoring double digits in multiple seasons with an average of 0.46 goals per game over 4 whole seasons

raumdeuter:
Peak of his powers was when none of the big clubs didnt want to have anything to do with him, Was Kluivert also at the peak of his powers when he went to Newcastle or Balotelli at the peak of his powers when he went to Nice?

Ziege struggled at Milan yet there was one maga in the EPL willing to pay for him, Everyone knew 998-2004 were the low level of German football just like Brazil since 2010 where failed footballers like Fred Jo and Hulk were wearing famous shirts

The truth is EPL is retirement ground for footballers when they come to collect maga money

Schweinsteiger Hierro, Campo, Zola, Vialli, Gullit, Weah, Djorkaeff, Lombardo, Babbel, Klinsmann, Ziege, melo melo melo melo la fe wi? melo melo melo melo la fe so

Players they dare not talk to in their prime, Its like a guy cant come near a chic at her prime, now when she is worn out and undesirable he sees the opportunity

Would a peak Weah, Vialli, Ravanelli Gullit, Schweinsteiger, Ziege ever play among shitty EPL players?

10M a yr for Schweinsteiger who can barely walk, Iku ma pa maga wa o.

Help us take care of Schweinsteiger, pay him some more then let him go to MLS to Chicago Fire, After that he can come retire to Munich board. Maga United abi na Maga premier league

LMAO see long epistle.
I no follow you talk all those other names.
Ziege came to EPL at 27yrs of age, played in a World Cup Final for Germany while in the EPL. There is a difference between being tired and being found out in the EPL

raumdeuter:
EPL is the retirement ground for tired Bundesliga players like Markus Babbel, Jurge Klinsmann, Christian Ziege etc

Ziege came to retire and collect maga money in the EPL just like Schweinsteiger was a chairman in Bayern and came to collect maga salary they are dishing out when he was about to retire

Demba Ba 25 goals in 5,300 mins Bundesliga when he saw mumu in EPL he scored 43 goals in 6,800 min

No wonder everyone dey come EPL to catch mugu defenders, mugu managers and mugu clubs who paid stuppid money

Fuchs and Okazaki would never believe their luck when they stumbled on foolish EPL players

Ziege was so tired he played about 30 times for Germany while in the EPL, playing in the international tournaments for Germany.

Ziege came to EPL at the peak of his powers at 27 years of age after dominating in the Bundesliga and struggling in Serie A.....only for him to struggle in the EPL

He was tired yet he was only 27yrs, played almost half of his international matches for Germany while he was in the EPL........LIE ANOTHER LIE

raumdeuter:
Thats why we say EPL teams mumu no be small

It took Firmino almost 11,000 minutes to score 38 bundesliga goals

It took him less than 3,000 minutes to score 15 Premier league goals

Firmino must be wondering why he didnt discover the mumu premier league earlier he could have been compared to Neymar now like Hidden Hazard

Papiss Cisse scored 37 goals in 65 matches in Bundesliga. 0.57 goals per game

He came to England and scored the same 37 goals.....in 117 matches. 0.31 goals per game

And who was that person mentioning Ziege? Ziege was a chairman in Bayern compared to the rubbish he served in the EPL. Unless u never watched him and are depending on stories by moonlight

Berbatov scored 69 goals in 154 matches in the Burnthisshitliga...........an average of 0.448 goals per game.

He scored 94 goals in 229 matches in the EPL.............an average of 0.410 goals per game.

Only an ignorant person will come here and start insinuating that Berba was shite in Germany and much better in England.

Berba was more prolific in the German league than in the English league

bykebyke:
Meant it as a joke..nothing else.

I was wondering
However those Brazilian forwards were on fire, Rojo might have done worse.

bykebyke:
Didn't say he is a good player though.

Just that I now appreciate him more.


He is shït,but he is less shïtty in comparison to his replacement for Argentina.

How does that concern Manchester United fans?
All you are saying is that Argentina has defenders who are more fecal than the already fecal Rojo.

The fact that Chikelue Iloanusi is a more useless defender than Furo Iyenemi won't make me appreciate Furo more.

Kai omo, so i miss all this?

So this is the quality of posters you get on this thread? People that do not know the difference between long ball and cross?

Money is now more important than life?

Lana1:
Some people believe football is a matter of life and
death. I'm very disappointed with that attitude. I can
assure you it is much, much more important than that."


What can be more important than life and death??

That is a quote from Bill Shankly

I am Zlatan!

Pogback! That is a dabbing goal

Lol make i go sleep i no fit do sleepless night on top this kind line up.
Hope we get the 3 points but i wouldn't bet on it.

I don't want to pile it on our dabbing player but his limitations which some of us knew about are just coming to the fore now.
Pogba does not have the positional discipline or composure of a carrick or busquets to play the holding role
He does not have trickery or inventiveness of mata, ozil, Silva or iniesta to play the 10
He lacks the work rate, team ethic and stamina of a Vidal or Essien to be truly box 2 box.
Pogba is like Orogbo, what is his benefit?
