he was left alone against LFC,I think if he see someone technical like him that's why I said ozil to play 10.
Ceballos can also press

sod09:
laca in the middle...I'm not sure ceballos can excel in 10, we should just partner him and torreira and ozil to play 10

Greatihex:
Ronaldo [for his consistency in what he does] and the rest.




Mind you, i am talking of the present generation. Not the past that i didn't watch

Greatihex:
See some of them with their double standard.


If na hazard now dem no go remember say e get more to football than numbers.

But, when na Iniesta and Ronaldo, dem go remember say e get more to football than numbers.



Mehn! I no dey rate penaldo that high o.


Messi is the football ultimate.

Kimbeast:
The issue is Would C.ronaldo have achieved what he did during Ronaldos time and vice versa. I am not sure whether C.ronaldo would have been able to handle the sheer amount of fouls and the physicality of football. De Lima Ronaldo bossed Seria A when it had a huge reputation for amazing defenders. CR7 has scored a bag full of goals but mostly against not that good opposition in Spain and Madrid and barac dominated the league for over 10 years, taken all the money share and this helped them build teams around them. De Lima Ronaldo would have thrived in this environment and i reckon he would of scored even more goals than he did and the world cup factor.

nihilistjnr:
How man of those 40 goals were scored in Serie A.

This isn't a case of you nor know ball...bros e be like say you nor know book too.

spillo1:
The mistake you are making is that you think I am trying to convince you about de Lima being a god when honestly I could careless what you think. You probably didn't even watch Him in action.

spillo1:
There is more than numbers in football, otherwise C.Ronaldo is a far inferior player than Bican, Di Stefano, Pelé and others. Nobody rates Gerd Muller highly yet he is a better goal scorer than Cr7.

spillo1:
De Lima was unstoppable at his peak, often playing for less cohesive set ups and even very limited cast (Inter). He was unplayable in a Seria A which was the best league at that time - stacked up with talent, especially defensive one.
He made a mockery of defenders like Maldini, Nesta, Cannavaro at their peak.

Cr7 nor reach

spillo1:
De lima on his day was something else. I’ve never seen anyone terrorize a defense like he could in my life.
He was my favourite player back then and he will always remain my favourite ever player. I don’t care how many Champions league CR7 has won, how many years he’s scored X+ goals, or any of that.

What I watched with my own two eyes with De Lima took my breath away in ways that CR7 never could.

patrickmuf:
People are seriously comparing Ororo to De Lima? I just weak today...

Ronaldo played when football was football and not business, if Ronaldo were to play now, he'd be very marketable as he was the top marksman for club and country.
He was magical on the ball, he could beat you for pace, with skills (dribbling and ball control), he was simply unplayable in his prime. The video Afrodoc2 shared highlights his time at Barcelona, you need to see him at Inter and with the Brazilian national team...He wasn't just a goalscorer, he scored goals whilst entertaining the fans...Dude is right up there with Pele as the best CFs ever.

..... Yes, it was a strange decision from Liverpool not to sign players this season and an injury could derail their season but let's see: they didn't sign midfielders because of Ox and Keita, both injury prone but most times, one of them is usually fit. In the attack, they don't have quality replacements for the likes of Mane and Salah and honestly it's hard to find players of similar quality who would want to sit on the bench for them as these players are rarely ever injured. Gomes too is decent cover for VVD. They look shaky at the back currently though and the sheer number of matches they have this season might be against them at the end but it's early days. Let's wait till mid season at least and then we can return to this discussion. On paper, City are champions already but it's not always like that in reality. Remember VAR too will come to play in vital matches and that could go a long way in deciding the eventual winner. Early days bro, early days.

sod09:
dude you get patience oo like I'm losing it on your behalf already

solomonbrown64:
.... I don't think you followed my conversation with Jencejyde. My response was about Liverpool's players fitness in comparison with ours and the rest of teams in the league although I stated clearly there that I might be wrong.

... I think it's funny for you to ask why I would regard a team that was only behind city last season with one point and surpassed us with more than 25 points. They have also been to the UCL finals twice with Klopp and won the champions League in their second attempt at getting there with him. They could have won the double last season in another time. Their champions League success is what Guardiola has been unable to achieve despite having a supposed better squad of players. I am not taking anything from Mancity, they are scary good but despite the fact that Arsenal fans hate to admit it, Liverpool are one of the best football teams on the planet currently. Arguably, top 3.

.... Yes, Liverpool will struggle without Salah and VVD but just like Auba, these players hardly get injured. Some teams just have good luck like that. I still wish we had gotten klopp then when he was available but nothing man fit do now, we just to hope for the best with Emery.

solomonbrown64:
.... I don't think there is a team in England that can keep up with Liverpool (I stand to be corrected), they are just that fit and it took years for them to reach that level. We pressed a lot early last season but I think perspective changed and the coach decided to go for results rather than enforcing somethings and he has carried that too to this season as well although it's still early times as a number of first team players are either out injured or not yet match fit. And it will also depend on the tactics of the manager, we won't be seeing that tactic against Liverpool for a while.

kokanepyramid:
No one here said he can’t improve, but trying to overhype his performance while comparing him with Torreira, etc and attacking those that don’t rate him was uncalled for.

Secondly, u can’t be patient with a player at the detriment of team results, he can come on as sub in EPL games and gradually grow into the games + there is the FA CUP, EFL and Europa.

What some don’t understand is Guen will come and go, the fact that he will improve is probable too as it’s not a certainty. He can even improve and decide to leave the club for a higher bidder, while we’ve suffered poor runs in the past just for him to grow.

Fkhalifa:
Walcott improved in so many areas till wanting to play CF/RW and injuries marred him..He started running from tackles and got lazy..We should have sold him in 2016.

Many had gone to be better players, Gnabry,Oxlade,Benaccer,Vela and few more others, it can be argued they grew in lesser leagues and that shows how fans expectations and pressure makes development a bit hard especially among top teams in England...

I'm not saying nuture them for 10 yrs nor offload them asap like some fans wish, but stirring the middle lane like we did for Iwobi.

Fkhalifa:
You think its one thing he should learn? I along with some fans feels they are about 68 things

I think some things are inborn, Auba's positioning looks natural and not learned, just like so many players with personal characteristics..

Maybe those in that dept feels it isn't needed, or he's been taught but haven't yet mastered

Good thing he's still at the stage he can learn, just like Niles, Bellerin,Holding,Martinelli and other youngsters.
