What’s the difference between Ozil and Arteta as players, everything is not by activity.

Ozil is a successful footballer as long as football is concerned. People are just demanding so much from him forgetting his age and using his demeanor against him.

Ozil and Sanchez are of same age, both are 31 as at today. Between him and Sanchez since they parted who has done more for their respective clubs no matter how little the margin the answer is Ozil. Even Sanchez had to run to Italy for all the hype he enjoyed while here.

The question is why is the stick always out on Ozil,?
how many 31 yr old EPL midfielders are playing better than Ozil today.?
Ozil's Demeanor makes him less respected. A player not respected will not make a good backroom staff.

I've not questioned Ozil's professionalism as a player in any way, I'm only stating the obvious that he's not an inspiration as such that he should be handed a back room staff job.

Baba Aguero is 31 and he’s banging in goals when the opportunity presents itself....(although I wouldn’t be slow enough to compare aguero and Ozil sha)

Ozil should be allowed to go when he’s time
At Arsenal is over. As regards arteta , he won a trophy at arsenal as a captain. Wenger his coach spoke highly of him as being a born leader. I think that’s enough to show he has above Ozil

if u ask me

I’ll say Ozil can be useful as a back room staff

Just saying
Back room staff as in ball boy (àbí na man sef) or what exactly?

Sincerely all his time at arsenal has not really shown any leadership quality like that. He's doesn't look like someone who deserves any role whatsoever in the club even after retirement.

I don't hate ozil ó, but it is what it is ( in fact I'm one of his advocates here when Good evening was freezing him out).....Ozil is that kind of person who has everything it takes to succeed and even end up succeeding sef, but just doesn't have that morale that inspires others.

I will not lie to u, the only people ozil inspires are those overly religious people that like how he carries his religious belive on and off the pitch

Vegetable bean pottage.
As inspired by this Ur vegetable beans, I decided to try something different with u. I added vegetable to my Peppered snail and it came out laidis. cool

I join my anointing with sod09 and kokanepyramid and say with full authority: THUNDER FIRE UNAI "ESUGBAYI" EMERY!

Imagine Arteta that started coaching just yesterday , it took him just 4 weeks to diagnose defence is Arsenal’s problem which he worked towards fixing by getting two players in the defence role just to sort our problem.

The Spanish Okey Emordi just dey cap rubbish. Shey Na fans dey act like sissy rotate captainship ? Abi Na captain fault say he dey always put his best combo on the bench only to introduce them after they start trailing by a goal or two ?

according to reports, Soares will be available after the winter break. So technically, if he's signed, he'll just miss only Burnley game. Not bad if you ask me.
Bros he will burnley and most probably miss newcastke too. He will be available for selection by 15th February and we play newcastle 16th.....I doubt he will be rushed back into action like that, at least we saw how long it took Tierney to get his first start after his injury recovery.....And there lies the problem. Cedric is supposed to be a stop-gap / cover for our injured/makeshift left backs and also to deputize for Bellerin in case of unforeseen circumstances, but he is injured himself.


All I'm saying is : we should be going to the market buying either injured players or players that will be loaned out when we know we only got those players cos their position needed to be filled. I just don't want that nonesense that happened with Kim Kaalstrom's 6 months at arsenal happening ni

It's been five months after nysc, I'm not depressed yet but I can see it coming.

no money, no hustle, just nothing.

I can't even go out.

I don't even know where to start.


Now, it doesn't really matter, I just want to wake up and go somewhere till I have an option. I don't really need a high paying job, just somewhere to work, get some money and keep my head up before depression consumes me.

They say dep**" would be the leading cause of death in 2020, I think that's not far from the truth.

Any job at all, I don't mind traveling anywhere in the country so the pay would be enough for me to sustain myself.


I'm based in Ondo State.
Bros u made a mistake most new entrants into the Labour market usually make. You've posted about how difficult it has been to get a job( which is no secret in present day Nigeria). You indicated Ur interest in taking up any job that will put food on Ur table.....BUT.....You never talked about the course you studied......You never talked about what and what you can do......You never talked about any skill you have (No matter irrelevant it may sound).....You never mentioned what and what you've done in the past that can spark the interest of a potential employer that sees Ur post and may want to consider u for a role.

I believe the essence of your post up there is to get help and not just to state the obvious (that there's unployment crisis in Nigeria). If that's what u want to do, then let people see tru Ur post that u can do better than others in Ur shoes.

Good money bawo? Who do think will splash money on Miki?

Let me help you put this in perspective. Since he joined Roma at the start of the season, he has made 9 Serie A appearances (5 starts/4 substitutions) and 2 Europa League appearances (1 start/ 1 substitution), he has been out injured more than he has even more the squad.

Baba, Miki na loss already. He is 31, earning huge amounts and is injury plagued, those are not positives, even for a squad player.
Chai!

I guess we better pray the Chinese come our rescue and take him off our books....at least make dem epp us find small change make dem collect Miki na. Abi? Cos I don't think MLS will want to pay money to sign him and still pay high wages when he's not Rooney or Ibrahimovic

I've noticed in recent times we've been going about our transfers with one habit; signing players that are not immediately available for selection into first team action.

We signed Tierney with injury....We signed Saliba and loaned him back almost immediately.....Now we will be getting Cedric Soares who won't be available for selection until February 15 or a later date.....

It is not pleasing to the heart when u know Ur team got a new player and he can't be deployed to help the team out almost immediately. I remember Wan-Bassaka; He played the first game of the season for manure, he wasn't nursing any injury prior to joining them, he was called upon and he played immediately.

Abeg make the scout or whether na top management dey show seriousness in handling bringing new reliable talents to the club Jàre. I mean it's just like a company employing a visibly heavily pregnant accountant when it's obvious the woman will probably be on maternity leave when it's time for the company to prepare and submit it's financial statements/final accounts for the year . To what end?

Anybody following up.on Mkhitaryan? How is he faring in Italy?

He's still an arsenal player u know? I don't know if he will fit in to this new arsenal under Arteta, but he doesn't I hope we sell him for good money so we can use the cash to bring in fresh legs

The team now has some form of shape and identity with players having an understanding of what is specifically required of them. Even Saka seems to be enjoying that fullback/winger role and his collaboration with Martinelli. The movements and transitions are joyous to watch.

Recall when I said we have to get Arteta despite his inexperience, because it would be more painful to see him shine for another club. He seems to be the next best thing as far as coaching is concerned.
Yes you did. I just love how Xhaka covers for him each time he goes forward. That was what was missing in that Arsenal v Loserpool Carabao cup. In that game our left flank was mostly opened each time the left back bursts forward. That was how loserpool scored the last equalizing goal that dragged us to penalty.

Willock is our player, hence the need to give him playing time for development. Ceballos is on loan qnd already nursing the idea of returning to Madrid.

Most clubs will prefer to feature their own players even if they are of lesser quality. It will require an extremely high level of performance to give a loan player continuous playing time.

Besides, BBC thinks Willock was MOTM. undecided
That comment was made 8.50pm which was 10 minutes before kick off.

In the first half Willlock didnt play so well, but he had a decent 2nd half.

By the BBC na Saka be man of the match....Na BBC know maybe na pure English breed MOTM dem award Willock cos everybody else wey watch ball see Wetin Saka do all match. undecided

No way I think he's also eligible for Ghana
Ghana báwo? Saka's parents are both Nigerians na. They relocated to England before he was born. How is he eligible to play for Ghana?

Saka appreciation post

How Xhaka covers for him each time he attacks just shows some coaches (like Arteta) know ball pass some other yeye coach (like Emery)

I no come understand this Holding and Ceballos situation again! Holding should be starting games like this na.. Abi he is not doing enough during trainings? I mean a horrible Mustafi has started ahead of him again! The same goes for Ceballos.. These guys have been back for a little while now and should be playing games now.
I no just know the kind work wey Willock dey put in at trainings wey dey make am enter team before caballos ó. Even Holding sef supposed Don dey play cup matches at least
