Talk about your useless Foden and leave Saka and others.

4 goals in 42 matches.

LOL. This means zilch if you cannot point to 1 chance (even one-half a chance) that Foden missed. If you can't, then what goal was he supposed to score that he did not?

I can point to one that Palmer missed.

Airhead, I heard England have never won a game that Palmer started. Is that true?

I cunt believe it.

Saka was ass in this game as well.

Before faking an injury and limping off.

Must be said.

airmark:
Android17's Foden finally bundled out.

He shouldn't have started this match and a top 9 should have started. Stupid coach.

Did Foden balloon a gifted chance over the bar like Palmer? Ignore the open man constantly like Saka?
Hold unto the ball for long due to main character syndrome like Jude?

Or he misplaced 2 passes: one to Rico/Gordon completely away from any potential attack or the long ball when he was caught in 2 minds between freeing up Watkins or passing to Noni?

That is the reason Foden should not have started. LOL.

You were praising Colwill in this game. LOL. I won't even talk. Make una dey hype mediocrity dey go.

On God, my heart was shaking small with Rodri out but now I'm getting convinced that 5 times in a row EPL titles might be a real thing.

BlueMann:
Palmer hasn't been at his best but he's picked some really nice long passes in behind the defense.

In fact, the whole team has been quite poor, barring one or two like Colwill.

This Pickford is a time bomb sure to explode every now and then.

You are another poster I like to read from.

Balanced. Articulate. Insightful.

Edit: I agree with you. England no get keeper. I've been so spoiled by Ederson that I sometimes forget what other teams suffer.

airmark:
Android17's Foden bundled out, they equalized. Palmer started the move by the way.

Oh, Foden was bundled out but Gordon was substituted for tactical reasons abi?

Do you remember when all through the euros England were allegedly not playing well because Gordon was not playing? Wetin come happen today?

hensben:
I mean why use him as false 9? What happened to Rice as DM Bellingham as CM while Palmer as CAM. This England coaches nor just get sense, na betting don affect their psyque.

LOL.

Watching the back of the TV again.

The false 9 in the first half was Phil Foden.

I wonder what you people watch sometimes. But then, most of yall support losing teams so I get it.

Arsenal fans and apologists can never like Foden. They thought they'll win the league last season with KDB out and Foden had other plans. Their foolishness is justified. It is the milipede that always has something to say about Haaland that needs addressing.

BlueMann:
Shouldn't that have been a penalty for Noni?

Anyways, another L at wembLey

I've seen them given but Greece FULLY deserved to win and were the more dangerous team for most of the game.

airmark:
A Foden with 4 goals in 41 matches for England, is looking like a fraud. If we now use Raumdeuter's 30+ G/A in a league season as cutoff, Foden is not yet a season wonder. Guirassy and Palmer did it carrying inferior teams that would have choked your Foden.

The 4 goals that took Foden 41 games to achieve, we will see how many matches Palmer will play to score his own 4 goals. Maybe you will get another stupid excuse to defend Foden's penurious 4 goals by then.

Airhead how many goals do Leao and Vinicius Jr have for their respective countries? They've played under multiple managers. Foden's senior team appearances have come under Southgate that yourself called an idiot.

In Southgate's reign, every England fan can admit that alot of players underperformed under him. Mostly due to playing them out of position and being too defensive.

Why don't you compare Foden's numbers for England until the senior team? Why don't you bring the fact that he won an U17 world cup for England as the best player? Why?

Because you are the vacuous argumentator that will ignore his club appearances and winnings, titles, personal awards and accomplishments and zero in on a checkered England career because you think it tarnishes him.

Newsflash! It does not. Otherwise, tell us why Palmer played with the same players at City and did not achieve half of what Foden did? Care to tell us?

At least, you're not stupid anymore to call Pep Fraudiola like you used to do before. So Pep (the best manager in the whole wide world) coached both Palmer and Foden and unanimously preferred Foden.

Even if you want to accuse him of bias, Foden won the league just this past season as the best player. You're telling me Guirassy and Palmer "did it" with inferior teams.

Airhead, what DID THEY DO? What did they win? What did they achieve? Are you telling me that the best player for the best team in the league is inferior to the best player for the 6th best team?

Are you mad?!

airmark:
Even with Guirassy scoring 28 goals in 28 matches last season and already on 3 goals in 4 matches this season, you decided to go years back to highlight his goals stats at Rennes.

Lordfalcao may even be smarter than you. Time to start ignoring you.

Airhead, so Guirassy is not a one season wonder because of last season but Foden is?

How dense are you? How thick are you?

I thought you were exorcised of all the MMM and Commandclem demons that ravaged your dull brain?

airmark:
If you have brain, you should know Kane and Watkins in England are miles ahead of Jackson in front of goal. Comparing Kane and Watkins with a striker with no goal in 16 matches for Senegal?

No sane person would have same expectations from both England and Chelsea.

Only God knows when you will stop typing epistles with no intelligence.

Stop bringing intelligence into the mix airhead everybody knows you are not intelligent.

Kane and Watkins are better than Jackson, at what stage of their careers and what have they won to prove it? You seem to be grappling with the concept of winning. Raheem was missing chances when KdB was still ensuring City won the league. That's what we expect from the best players.

Messi has gone to Inter Miami, and they've become winners. It is the same expectation we have for Mboobie in Real Madrid.

Even Jackson's biggest fans know he is not quite the finished article but he has so much to his game + the numbers that a stud like Palmer should be winning things with him.

You argued yourself sore that your attack needed bolstering and you got most of what you wanted. Now I'm asking you to hold Palmer to the same standards Foden is held to and you are waffling when most restaurants are done selling breakfast meals.

Airhead, which team has a history of winning between Chelsea and England nation team? If England have not won shingbain since 1966 why will any reasonable person have higher expectations for England than Chelsea that recently won a UCL?

So why pretend Palmer would be the difference for England when you won't back him to be the difference for Chelsea? Does that not prove you don't truly believe what you are saying about him?

If you do, then tell us if he is better than Hazard and Lampard. Simple.

Like I was saying.

Edit: trying to upload Lee Carsley's comment about Foden but Nairaland is not complying.

Sportsweb:
Like this like this, na Foden be the one season wonder.

He is not even a starter with Pep favoring Savinho and Doku/Grealish as wingers

Mr PiffPaff brain.

This is the Giurassy that airhead believes would win the EPL for CFC.

airmark:
So scoring 9 league goals in a season in an attacking team like Man City, is now top. Na wa o.

Come and see oh.

If Eden scores 10 nonpenalty goals from his favorite position, airhead will agree it is world class even if he played 38 games. But if Foden scores 9 non penalty goals in 28 games playing multiple positions, Foden is a fraud.

Your own mumu arguments will be used against you.

I'll show you the ropes after I hang you with it.

airmark:
Which day would you ask a sensible question, Timbros?

At present, Palmer is more resourceful than Foden and we saw it also in the Euros. How this fact metamorphosed into Palmer better than Lampard, Hazard, who have both retired, is foolishness of highest degree from your coven. Even Lordfalcao wouldn't ask this mumu question.

How will Palmer prove his resourcefulness like Lampard and Hazard did whilst they played for CFC?

Can you mention 1 season that either players had that is better than what Palmer did last season?

andrewbaba44:
You can’t call a consistent premier league performer a one season wonder though

drisham:
This is cap foden has been top for 3 seasons max

Maybe there's a reason pep is playing him much this season

Please help me ask Airhead if Hazard was a one hit wonder when he had these stats in the seasons he won PFA YPOTY and PFA POTY. The red is penalties and yellow is number of games played. Please compare it to Foden's stats.

But according to airhead, Foden is a one season wonder. Meanwhile, who else has seen that Jackson's stats are as good as Eden yet Jackson has not even peaked.

Airhead, is Palmer better than Hazard? We should even ask if Jackson is better as well.

I have oraimo cord for you so you'll learn not make brainless arguments.

andrewbaba44:
The players voted though ,maybe Palmer is loved more than the other guy ,even the other guy voted Palmer ,lmao

Fans vote not the players.

airmark:
Because Southgate was foolish to be trusting your 007 ahead of Palmer.

Gentlemen of this thread, here is airhead now telling us England would have won the Euros over Spain had Palmer played instead of Foden. Fine.

Airhead, why won't you hold him to the same standards for Chelsea? He already has a striker that can replicate what Hazard did in 2014. He on his own is an idolo. Yet airhead won't expect CFC to win anything but that same player is the reason England would have won?

Where is the proof?

airmark:


Because he is Messi.

4 goals in 41 matches.

Thanks for making my point. Kane and co scored millions right, why did England not win?

Because England goes how their best player will go.

airmark:
You are going to 2021/2022 just to prove that a striker that had highest XG and missed most of the big chances, was decent.

Foden in 41 matches for England, scored a penurious 4 goals. Outside of Fraudiola's system, he is like Jackson in Senegal - fruitless.

What season should I go to? Haaland missed numerous chances last season and City still won the league or are you now claiming that Chelsea will win the league if they had a striker other than Jackson?

I need you to make commitments to your claims so they can be used against you.

You keep telling me about Foden - when I claimed that England has to build around him to be at his and their respective bests. Hope you know you're making my argument for me? If they maximize Foden's abilities by playing him where he will be most dangerous, they'll win.

That's similar to what CFC have done for Palmer with the only difference being, you still don't expect your team to win anything. You'll do same if England was built around him by blaming everybody else.

I won't do same for Foden just like I wouldn't have done same last season when KdB was out.

Do you think Barca want to finish 6th but Lamal will have 50 G/A?

Barca believe they have a potential Ballon D'or winner in their hands (as did Spain) and you can see how they expect to win trophies. That's how it goes.

Airmark, is Palmer better than Hazard? He has to be, abi?

airmark:
When you are comparing a top 9's goals with a midfielder, there's a big problem.

Will City swap Haaland with Jackson? You are Timbros of Manchester city.

Try dey reason abeg. Your style of harping on one minuscule aspect of a post whilst straying from the main gist is worrisome.

I'm saying if Jackson contributed 14 goals
Palmer contributed 22 goals

That's already more than what City could muster in 21/22 yet City still won the league. That's my way of saying, Jackson is not the reason CFC won't win anything and if Palmer is who you guys say he is, why won't you expect to win tangible trophies?

If I believe Pep is the best manager - I will expect him to win.

If I believe KDB is the best player in the league - I expect him to win.

Same goes for Foden, Rodri etc. I make sure my expectations match my profiling of the manager/players.

You guys in one breath tell us Palmer is the best in the EPL but shield him from the expectations of winning. To me, that proves, you don't truly believe he is the best. I'm just calling out the grand hypocrisy.

drisham:
He's on course to surpass them yes


This logic is flawed cos he's only played 1full season of senior football



Why are you beefing your academy player 😂

So he is on course to surpass them. Fair answer.

What will he need to do to achieve that?

I have nothing against Palmer by the way. Just like with Jude Bellingham, I drag them when they are being put against their superiors.

Watch how they won't answer it.

If it is to talk rubbish hypotheticals they'll be posting multiple brainless posts.

Don't forget both Foden and Palmer played for the same team. We should not be asking what they'll do if teams were switched. We saw Palmer play with the same players Foden plays with.

The talent did not show.

The brighter light shines in the midst of other bright lights but a dim light will shine only in darkness.

IYKYK

drisham:
You know you can't talk shit on his footballing abilities or greatness...now switching to trophies


Like man city won't win those trophies wether foden exists or not

Don't be shy like airhead. Is Palmer better than Hazard and Lampard?

Realtord43:
Correct.

Then you are at least reasonable and consistent. I can respect that.

airmark:
I was expecting Foden's name in the highlighted.

007's performance at the Euros without Haaland and Fraudiola's system, was unacceptable.

That season? Foden was back to back YPOTY. Have you forgotten?

This past season he had 19 non penalty goals and 8 assists.

airmark:
We don't have Kane or Haaland as striker.

Foden instead of Palmer in our team last season with wasteful Jackson, would have struggled in relegation waters.

Foden has won multiple titles without Kane or Haaland. Foden has 6 EPL titles.

Jackson is not the finished product but his numbers were as good as KdBs when City won the league. Palmer's were out of this world. What else is the excuse?

Don't forget Palmer and Foden have played for the same team - City. One stayed and won again. The other is apparently the best player in the world but he should be excused from winning titles. E no gel.

Realtord43:
Which high Profile EPL matches are you talking about?
If you watch Palmer of last season, you won't be talking about high Profile Epl match.

And on UCL, the minutes he got in Man city, he was impactful.

Don't rush the kid bro, he is doing more than what people expect of him.

I am not going to defend Jude Bellingham but you have to admit that if you are not convinced he should be the EPOY then he should also never be the Ballon D'or right?

airmark:
Not every Saka and Palmer has Haaland as goal merchant.

Haaland was not here in 21/22 when City won a league title strikerless. KdB scored 15 goals in the EPL that season.

Erling was out for 3 - 4 months last season. If Foden solely depended on him City would not have won the league. City did with Foden being voted the most significant to City's winning.

I need you to have the same expectations for Palmer. No excuses. By the way, Palmer is better than Hazard - that's also fair right?
