Luiz and risks though.

Ibime:
The club lost 3 midfield yeomen and only gained one in Bakayoko.

If I'm Conte, the best I can make of the situation is deploy Luiz in midfield. That can alleviate the midfield problem for now.

For RWB, I can still rotate Azpi with Moses.

For LWB, I have no choice but to send Kenedy to TB Joshua for healing and then rotate him with Alonso. Some matches, we will need Kenedy pace, but Alonsos lack of pace can be ameliorated by Luiz doubling up with him from a midfield position.

Brilliant one. Mou tried it that time. Luiz can also play some passes to our attackers like fab and still perform better defensive duties.

Bimffo:
Is Gameiro not over 30 Years?

Bad market, Airmark o.

Anything that is better than morata is welcomed by me. Won't it be a shame if solanke of liverpool, that wasn't ready for our first team, outscores morata this season? We can't buy a top quality striker without coughing out serious amount and we are not ready for that. Gameiro still looks more ready than morata. He can still play for 3 years before morata finds his feet.

Bimffo:
But wait o, Monreal played at the centre of a 3 man defense and we couldn't break them down?

And you lots think we will survive this scare?

I pray we do.

When batshuayi was scoring in preseason, i wasn't convinced as i saw many holes in his game. I knew in competitive matches, he would find it difficult, cos it will be a different ball game. For now costa hasn't been replaced and it's sickening. I won't be surprised if we buy another striker.

Epl now will be more competitive, any slip, other teams will cash in. That's why the 'morata needs time' mantra should not fly abeg, abrahamovic only bought wrist watches for those that won epl last season. Morata's time starts now, he is not a 20m signing like baba rahman.

Bimffo:
Now back to the Match today?

Can we beg Costa?

Can Costa still play for us.?

Nihilist, Ibime, Griffon, Airmark, FBS, Nateevs, Bigkesh?

Another problem invited. No way bro. I believe this loss will make conte and board do the needful. We should dash atl. madrid, costa and take gameiro.

Pataki:
Hmmmm!

Hello Gunners. Good to see you guys keeping this thread alive. I have not logged on NL nor viewed this site offline for months, decided to view NL offline, and just could not resist logging in to type something. Silly me!

Hope you fam are doing great. Missed everyone though. Wenger messed up big time last season. I hope last season taught him a personal lesson in his coaching career. So much has happened, but the beauty of football is that, you can always fight back every season. I enjoyed today's game. For the first time, after we were a goal down, I was content to watch us play. There is a new level of ruthless desire in Wenger's eyes. Hopefully, Arsenal will take it one game at a time seriously.

Airmark, I saw your email. I am fine. Sorry that I did not reply your mail. I just was a bit laid-back about replying NL mails. But I sincerely appreciate you sending an email.

As for those who deluded themselves that their internet rambunctiousness gave rise to Pataki leaving NL, kontinuu to covfefe unaself.

Proud to be a GUNNER and forever will be!

Good to know you are safe.

agrovick:
This is one chance, ki Olorun gba wa

That's how we were waiting for torres to hit it, until we sent him packing finally. At least we were fortunate to still have drogba at that time. Now who do we have as the other striker? Batshuayi ? We are in for a long hike and conte knows it.

Segadem:
[color=#1986BC] Mr man let us cool down, messi or CR7 may also miss that , BTW shots off target and shot on goal always out-number goals scored, let's give him chance he may the next drogba[/color]

You must be a brother in the lord, to expect a water to turn wine in the absence of christ. This guy is a goal-shy striker, dont expect 20 goals from him in epl as a starter. He can't do more than his ability.
Meanwhile, i only posted that gif when someone said he wasn't given any chance to score. Drogba had only one chance against bayern and he buried it, the rest is history. If he had scored that goal, i know some people would have mentioned me in their posts.
Fact is, we are going into the season without a reliable point man.

agrovick:
Just look at the way, dude was doing legelege . Is football no longer a contact sport?

Some of us who followed real madrid last season, knew the goals per minute nonsense being bandied up and down, was a ruse. Even in laliga, some spineless defenders still bullied him in some games.
A friend called me after the match and asked me what made morata slip when he attacked willian's pass, i just cut the call. This same person argued with me before, that morata was strong and would replace costa easily.
Let's see how conte will manage the situation we've found ourselves.

pamcode:
This is why I am not defending him. H called for that pass and Willian gave it to him only for him to fumble it. I hope this guy dosent flop or else the Wolves are coming for him.

You are still hoping? With time y'all will agree with me, that we made a mistake buying him. Goals win matches, morata hasn't got the heart to deliver those goals for us. Conte's reaction after he missed that chance, says it all. When we hailed hazard for his influence in our team, some id.iots called us fanboys and tagged him, local champion. Their international champion could not score raumdeuter's 'awoof' penalty in a local government community match.

Nihilist:
He didn't have a chance to score his penalty too...

They will soon blame willian for not giving him a perfect pass, or not ready for it, despite being the one who called for it. They saw people like us who criticized the morata deal as haters or fools.

Nihilist:
So first touch is not even ready to start?

It's better he comes in as a sub, when wenger boys must have tired out. Zidane wasn't a fool, benching him in tough matches.

BlueAngel444:
Drogba impacting his wisdom for arsenal's demolition...

Cc to ONLY the sensible people in the room

Let's hope a miracle happens. However, a dog will never roar, even if a lion shows mercy and serves as the tutor.

bigkesh:
Rashford getting compared to Mbappe

Scummies.

Psg should buy coutinho now.

hensben:
What's Hazard buyout clause?

I dont think he has a buyout clause in his contract. Epl teams hardly add that clause in deals.

Skimpledawg:
Abeg o, did they force Morata on Conte?

Why is Don sounding as if he does not know what to do with the Niqqa? Season don start o

I was more than surprised the way he has been talking about morata recently. He said he would need time to adapt, today. I was like, so you settled for a striker that would need time to fit into our style, despite zola and co's warnings?.

I hope ibime and nihilist can help us with details on who was responsible for this morata acquisition. So as to know who to send mail to.

amodu:
If that should be the case, don't you think it should have been Van Dijk's transfer first before that of Rudiger?

For I fear the deal might not go through as it can drag for long owing to Southampton's reluctance to sell considering bidding less than a month to the closure of the transfer market.

Their reluctance was somehow reflected in the treatment of Liverpool.

We were chasing the guy long before now, but nothing worked and we had to grab rudiger, who some of us didn't see as cahill's upgrade.
We don't know what conte saw, to have renewed the interest in van dijk. He talked about the importance of more players in his press conference today.

BlueAngel444:
Considering the fact Cahill probably has just two more seasons he would be quality back up for VVD.
Just like Rudiger is back up for Azi and Andreas for Luiz


Anyway can this team beat Arsenal
Courtios; Azi, Luiz, Cahill; Moses, Kante, Fabregas, Alonso; willian, Batshuayi, Morata.
Subs: gk, rudiger, Boga, musonda, remy, baker, andreas
Conte has hinted on the same formation and similar faces

I dont think moses will be available, so rudiger may start. Wenger boys are not that solid defensively, so morata and batshuayi are expected to prove themselves in front of goal. I expect musonda or boga to come in second half and finish the work. My only problem is cahill handling sanchez. I am optimistic, we shall win.

amodu:
For what actually, after the arrival of Rudiger

Rudiger, just like in his national team, is supposed to be a squad player in a big club like chelsea. Conte sees players that go for 30m to 40m as normal players these days. He talked about team's depth today and improving the weak areas. May be he sees van dijk as a better lcb.

Alvaro wants to play as number 9, but in his characteristics he could play also as number 10 - Conte.
We are getting there.

Never noticed this neymar moniker before today. Wow, Barca is blessed with indomie-influenced fans.

Neymar1095:
For 55million i thought only Pep was crazy.

Don't compare a diamond with ordinary stones.

Will be so happy if Van dijk comes to chelsea. Learnt he is back on our radar.

Nihilist:
Femo don tweet say no be am o.

That's just professional courtesy in my opinion sha after slacking the puna

I expected him to go gung ho on amir in his tweets. I don't trust him. When mayweather visited london, if you see the eye wey femi use follow one big azz wey dey pass during photo shoot, you go fear. One even gave him a gift, mayweather tell am say na 'set-up', he should watch it.

The same thing debruyne's girl told kevin. These women wont kill us. Femi femolacasta don do am. Hope married men in the house dey see am. Be faithful in marriage.

Femi can have my leftover - Amir khan. Fury will definitely talk about this later.

diggz:
U mean the crack head aurier. No be that guy dem say craze pass Costa?

He is now a born-again player. Preaching good deeds in all the nooks and crannies of paris. Allow him to bring the gospel of change to london.

BlueAngel444:
But £60m for sandro when Chelsea has the best lwb in EPL, and Marco alonso has stepped up to probably top 10 on the world @ his position.

At this point i dont care about the amount again. Alonso looks weak when troubled by a sharp winger. Both offensively and defensively, sandro looks more solid to me.

BlueAngel444:
Is the Aurier and Sandro deal likely to happen?

It may happen

hensben:
Any chance that we will still sign Sandro?

If juve gets telles, we may get sandro.

Chelseafan1:
Bros na either of the two clubs o, I fit count like 4 pple for here wey no kuku fancy Hazard and I dey 100% sure say Airmark, Hensben and Bigkesh go equally dey happy for Hazard to join a better team, a well organised team that has Messi, Pique, Iniesta and Suarez, infact, if Barca no sign that boy, I no go happy.

He should join madrid, not barca, after winning ucl with us.

diggz:
All this rumor on serge aurier, I hope it is not true Sha!? Before crazy arabs choose to do us like barca.

Abeg make una free psg players o! I can't shout biko.

Psg wanted him out long ago, no problem. This is going to be a good buy, we discussed him here few weeks ago.
Aurier at rwb and sandro at lwb will be dope, if it happens. Morata will be forced to score goals.

Bykebyke earlier today
