Normally, people like this shouldn't be taken seriously but the kind of government we have pave way for these kind of people and VDM

You made a very valid point here honestly. If the country was good and the kind of government we operate was up to its task, ideally there's no how someone who was paraded for theft and conversion of ₦50m as recent as 2021 will suddenly turn up to be the go-to person for ransom negotiate and rescue of kidnap victims.

It's quite unfortunate Sha. Like if we have working security agmecies who have records, the moment his name came up as being involved in hostage and rescue negotiation; security agents should have warned members of the public to be wary of him.

But then again, if they warn people about his past what will the security agents suggest as alternative to dealing with him? It's not like the security agents will even help victims' families rescue them from kidnappers den without paying ransom sef

BlueMann:
Inter Miami are MLS cup champions

Another trophy in the bag for the GOAT. Lovely ending to the careers of Busquets and Alba, they came to chill with their homeboy and won a couple of titles with a previously bottom table club.

Another day for WaSIUU fans to be sad

Gabzy1:
Our attack has been average since Arteta took charge, no improvement at all.
If he fails to win anything this season, he has to go.

It's true defence wins you championship but Arsenal is the only anomaly.

We have had solid defence for three to four years now with no trophy to show for it.

I am not convinced with the dribbling and creativity of the likes of martinelli and trossard. It is eyesore watching them taking on players.

That's why odegaard always focus more on Saka as our main creative outlet.

Teams have now device the means to double mark Saka.

We have been fortunate with setpieces for helping us break the deadlock numerous times this season, if not the issue of creativity in our attack would have been glaring for everyone to see.

While the likes of trossard and martinelli are scoring crucial goals and helping the team defensively, their lack of creativity is a major source of concern.

If we replace gyokeres with Haaland, he won't have double digit league goals by now, that's how bad we are in creativity.

I hope saliba and big gabi come back on time.
Let's see if we can continue to ride our luck depending on set pieces to win the league.

The bold is not true at all.

You can criticize the result of today's match an even blame the coach for the result, but u shouldnt do that with falsity and agenda abeg.

In 2023/2024 season we scored 91 goals in the league which was the most number of goals arsenal has scored in the EPL of all times. That was scored under Arteta yet you claim our attack has been average with no improvement since Arteta took place.

I understand fans get hurt and frustrated due to the fact that major trophies keep eluding us, but that does not mean we should be making false claims like the team was the same as it was when we had Loserpool beating us 4-0, Man city whipping us and Chelsea always getting the better of us under previous managers.

Yes we all hope Saliba and Gabriel will come back to give the team the balance it has few weeks ago.

On thing most fans are refusing to acknowledge is the fact that even our open play goals, Saliba and Gabriel contribute significantly to it going by how they start our attack moves. They always stay at alert to have the ball released to Zubi or Rice who would push attack further up the field. When the opposing players try to start their own attack or counter, Saliba is always standing solidly behind their striker to dispossess him thereby overturning the ball to our Midfielders to restart our attacks. If u notice Mosquera and Hicanpie almost always lose aerial duels which puts pressure on our midfield and has led to Rice overworking himself at the back. These little detaiks count. It's nof just about Saliba and Gabriel contributing to our set piece goals alone.

This Delap na frustrated white hooligan

Caicedobets:
be calming down

As how? 🤷‍♂️

Offside

Sharp sharp hotel!

Ellexy:
Pressure contributes to erratic decision making. All the same, I'm very glad for his contribution.

😂😂😂

Ellexy:
Pressure had been building, the pipe had to eventually burst Hincapie regardless.

Pressure for no burst of he didn't concede that last throwing now. At least he shouldn't have conceded the throw too close to the box.

Shegzdave:
Hincape is not arsenal standard at all

There's no reason for him to have conceded that last throwing at all. The ball was played to his leg and somehow he ended up letting it slip to throwing at a time when almost everyone was tired to defend Villa's pressure.

iamoyindamola:
We had no chances in this game jare

Says who?

We had 9 shots on target and u say we had no chances?

We didn't score the chances, that's why we lost jare

We had our chances but didn't take it. We have ourselves to blame, no other person.

Hicanpie was the architect of this Villa second goal. Shame!

They refuse to clear the ball out there.

Nonsense! Absolute nonsense!

Why is Madueke useless like this? 🤷‍♂️

What is wrong with Madueke? Why u no go pursue that ball; u wey just enter game. Smh 🤦‍♂️

Why are we allowing loose ball all over the pitch? This people will score us o

This Hicanpie never ripe for EPL Sha

Saka got the ball there na referee.

Rice calm down abeg! Don't use Ur left to waste that chance

That rubbish Hicanpie dey play lásán. I really hope Saliba comes back on time

E be like say God Wan punish this Hicanpie Sha

Shegzdave:
He operates better centrally so far in Arsenal shirt

He doesn't actually. He's always hiding from passes ; he doesn't come out to take the ball off Rice and Zubi's legs like Odegaard typically does.

Why do they keep allowing Watkins go one v One With Hicanpie? 🤦‍♂️

Rice is really putting pressure on them in that midfield

1-1!

Come On You Gunners!

Shegzdave:
Ordegard should be taken off in the second half and Eze return to the middle with Trossard manning the LW

Eze doesn't deserve to remain in the game at all.

Trossard and Gyokeres coming on.

Ellexy:
And move 5-10m while at it.

It's annoying watching him do that all the time. Soon he will get yellow card for it.

MSGAMBLE9:
That is why when some sections of the fanbase make a case for people like Kai and Nelli, it's crazy to argue otherwise... Eze doesn't impose himself on games for all his talents

Exactly. All those times Martinelli was frustrating going forward, I always tell people that Martinelli is starting because of his defensive contributions.

It just looks as if Odegaard came to spoil how fast we've been playing in attack ever since he was away injured.

He keeps slowing attack down, holds on to the ball unnecessarily and just seem to be misplacing passes.

Eze not tracking back is not helping matters on the left side making it difficult for Calafiori to go on one of his attacking dash into the opponent's box

E be like say dem swear for Odegaard Sha
