CFCfan:
Hazard skipped past 4 Barca players to score a wonderful solo goal!!

That's what I am talking about. A40 , raumdeuter , dopejemi

Imagine the kind of Spanish defence . Now that's hazard for you

A40:
Suarez, RVP, Adebayor hell even Yakubu came from Isreal to destroy your league

They were primed in epl. Imagine loanees like chicharito, adebayor were instant hits at real Madrid. Let alone suarez, Ronaldo, bale that have been well sharpened in epl, easily they bombed the spineless defenders in laliga.

A40:
Who are the good defenders in the EPL? Kompany, Koscielny, Cahill, Smalling or Lovren? Lool

List the top 10 central defenders in la liga and let me pull out 10 from epl , lets compare. Time to watch Chelsea abeg.

bykebyke:
Messi.

So you did nt read it when PSG told them they would trigger his buy-out clause, despite being so huge?

bykebyke:
What kind of logic is this


So because no top team has made a bid for him makes him average

That's how it's in football. Name any great player without suitors coming and also tell me if he is better than yaya toure too?

bykebyke:
^^Busquets average??

Tell me any top team that has offered to buy him? He played 212 games for barca scored 6 goals. You too will put him ahead of yaya toure?

raumdeuter:
He was grade B because he wasnt good enough, They got rid of him and Fabregas and won the treble immediately. while they are dominating the weaker EPL.

Yaya Toure was benched by a rookie Busquet after Toure left Barca has won multiple Champions league Toure is yet to smell quarter finals, Its only in the weak all strenght no sense EPL where fake players like Toure can call themselves midfielders

What did Sanchez do vs Argentina? Score a penalty like 8 other players did? So whats special about that.

Not in football will any good non-racial sensible football coach will bench yaya toure for that diver , Sergio biscuit. May be in swimming and gymnastics. His non winning any ucl afterwards does n't mean he is not several miles ahead of that average Sergio. Its ludicrous what you just said bro. For you to call yaya toure fake midfielder, it defines your level of football knowledge.
Meanwhile
soldado played 101 games for Valencia scored 59
played 51 games for tot hotspur scored 7 at your leisure do the ratio.

It speaks volume. for rating Sergio busquit over yaya toure . No comment again Bye

Did I just hear that EPL defenders are the best? Were they able to stop a grade B player in Barcelona (Sanchez) from running wild on them?

Yes he was grade b because of the likes of messi and untouchable Spanish players. We all know how you chased e'too and yay toure away, when they were nearing legendary status. The same sanchez we saw what he did in copa America, helping to see off argentina and clinch the trophy. If you ask him today he will tell you he has better chances of playing now, hence he improves. Meanwhile he ran no wild, he could nt score against more defence conscious teams like Chelsea

Debroslink:
Tell me how...
Chelsea... 20 goals in 26 games (not fully fit) equals 0.79 goal per game
Atletico... 27 goals in 35 games (fully fit) equals 0.76 goal per game
So tell us how those overrated EPL defenders made life difficult for him

What made Costa not fully fit in epl? That's how intense it is to play against tougher defenders as opposed to what you have in spain. Aguero also have similar story to tell. Not frgetting the duo of negredo and soldado that came and were lost among the crowd.

raumdeuter:
Aguero a La Liga import is the current highest goal scorer in the EPL,

Of the top 5 top scorers in EPL last season 3 of them are ex La Liga players

Of the top 5 assist makers in the EPL last season 3 of them are ex La liga players

where are the strong EPL defenders to stop them

BTW none of them was EVER top scorer in La Liga nor top assist maker in any La Liga season before moving to the EPL

Diego costa scored 27 goals in la liga. But came to epl and made him feel the heat and slowed his roll, only to manage 20. Aguero has been playing in epl for how many years now bro? He has adapted well to the toughness of the defenders despite going off and on due to injuries in the past. You cant be chewing gum and scoring goals smiling week-in week-out like it obtains in la liga, in epl.
Suarez, nistelrooy, Ronaldo, suarez, bale all made mince-meat of poor defenders that abounds in the Spanish league immediately they left epl. Meanwhile I aint disputing the fact laliga has deadly offensive players, but good defenders are very scarce compared to epl. If not just of recent Barcelona used to cover their defensive flaws by their near-perfect offensive play. That speaks volume of how less-serious laliga teams take defensive play. Accept the fact.

Everyone did very well on that ish. thanks rotimiland

chic2pimp:
The stats is there for all to see. It's up to you to decide whether the stats in front of you was as a result of those teams being better coached or simply down to the quality of defenders.

Now why don't you name these so called "Very Good Defenders" you claim the league has aplenty?

We all know la liga generally is more offensive conscious compared to their backlines. I don't need any stats or start naming defenders. The number of goals scored in la liga by attackers brought from epl is enough to judge the number of weak defenders scattered all over the remaining clubs in laliga, save for the two Madrid teams and barca.

Leave EPL fans to wallow in their delusion

In last season CL

The strong EPL defenders performed in the CL below

Arsenal conceded 11 goals in 8 games
Liverpool conceded 9 goals in 6 games
Chelsea conceded 6 goals 8 games
City conceded 11 goals in 8 games

The weak La Liga defence in the CL below

Barcelona conceded 10 goals in 13 games
Madrid conceded 9 goals in 12 matches
Atletico conceded 4 goals in 10 matches


Barcelona won La Liga conceding 21 goals Chelsea won EPL conceding 32 goals

Lionel Messi will tell you why he could not find the back of the net against Chelsea after several meetings. If you like bring more statistics, every european soccer follower know well that apart from Madrid, Barcelona of recent, athletico Madrid, other teams in la liga parade more average defenders compared to epl.

chic2pimp:
If I ask you to compile a list of these so called "Very Good Defenders", i'm sure you'll start naming wastemen like Shawcross.

Just let us know if la liga has more good defenders than epl. don't beat about the bush bro if you are against my opinion.

erico2k2:
U realy believe all that you wrote up there? lol let me ask you,name one good policy PMB laid down plz

There is no need to rush into making policies without proper homework, the rot met on ground is more than expected. Electricity has improved as distributing companies are afraid of license revocation, this alone has direct impact on people especially those at middle class. The fear of jail is knocking things gradually into shape as people are conscious of a serious government ready to recover stolen monies, hence improved revenue income and fuel problem has reduced. Not forgetting how PH refinery started working, the one last government told us could nt work anytime this year. Slow but steadily we will get there.

Telles looks too soft defensively to me, just like felipe luis

dopeJemi:
Hazard= bolasie


How many chances does hazard create?

Now it's getting ridiculous. I'm outta here.

Chelseafan1:
U be EPL fan, Man u fan, does Eden Hazard dribble like a headless chicken, u watched him get 3 points off ur team last season?

Don't mind him.

dopeJemi:
If na to dey dribble like headless chicken them Take dey become excellent player, bolasie sef na excellent player

No bro, successful dribbling skill is part of it, only messi had more successful dribbles than hazard last season. Bolasie did meaningless dribbles and not even close , try harder.

dopeJemi:
So when will hazard be an excellent player?

He is already an excellent player but yet to make the move. That's why football legends shower praises on him .

kr0ne:
Airmark, please, if you're chanced open the thread. I'll post the verses I have. The unserious ones can't hold us back jare.

Ok opened.

raumdeuter:
They both played in the Champions league. How many non penalty goals did each score

One carried the burden of dribbling, passing, striking majorly on his head, while the other did less dribbling because of more helpful colleagues around to do more taps in.

dopeJemi:
Ronaldo at 23 won the ballon d'or in england

You know that's a fact

Which up till now amazes everyone. Assuming he did n't leave for spain he would nt have won it again in his life, cos messi's dominance in la liga would n't let him smell it. If you are an excellent player go to spain, you have more chances of winning it. You know that's a fact.

homesteady:
I read one of your comments where you said you are not a party sycophant, but this your comment has just proven otherwise!

If you had said it's still too early to judge, it would have been quite more sensible, but saying renewed hope for the less privileged is just entirely just dishonest of you!

Government policies are responsible for bettering or degenerating the welfare of the citizens, what policies have this government kick-Started?

The value of Naira is dropping like every 2 weeks - which is directly or indirectly affecting the pockets of the citizens, the weekly bomb-blasts are back - So what is the renewed hope?

How has his various trips helped the less privileged?

My brother, what we have had since time immemorial have been selfish people at the helms of affair of governance in this country. I was one of those who thought buhari should nt be there since the era of obj, thinking cos of his Islamic/northern background and dictatorial tendencies. I tried to study his person and realized his actions and inactions have shown he has the interest of majority of Nigerians, who are below middle-class at heart. I listened to his interviews and realized though he has many challenges, he wants to lay great foundation in which everything will be well for majority of us. He has passion for a greater Nigeria at heart, that is undisputable. The past administrations got us into where we are right now. He needs to clean up the mess that might mitigate against his developmental programmes. He gave reasons for not appointing ministers yet, which I believe to every Nigerian patriot made a lot of sense. Permanent secretaries would be able to expose the rot in the system directly to him with no fear and this will make Buhari to bring a new system which can reduce corrupt practices to the bearest minimum and in essence people will directly feel the impact of his programmes. Now things are hard but I believe with time things will fall into places. Now nobody wants to go to jail, the era of impunity is gone, an average Nigerian can report any corrupt person to the appropriate agencies and nothing will be swept under the carpet.

God win They should now do their work .

dopeJemi:
Excuse of Life

You know that's a fact.

Mod should ban all these So-called people.

dopeJemi:
I expected this

But both have two legs abi? Both can run abi? Both have been circumcized abi? Both play for their senior team abi?

Ronaldo was how old when he won the ballon d'or again? Remind me.. also remind me if all the players that played in 2008 were of the same age with him

One play in the league where most team's defenders are very good, while the other play where most defenders are very poor.

One told me susshi. I asked her what was sushi. She refused to tell me.

Ok

Renewed hope for the less-privileged.
