Baba, leave that thing oh. Liverpool study their opponents better than any other team I have seen in the league. Klopp employing the hard press on Arsenal was a result of him studying Arteta’s tactics especially when we have the ball. He knew if he increased the press, Arsenal lacked the tactics to beat the press.

Simply put, Liverpool used Arsenal to increase their goal difference. It had nothing to do with respecting Arsenal like they will respect Chelsea, City or any other formidable team with good coaches. He knew the opportunity was there and he pressed hard for 90 minutes because he knew Arteta did not have an answer for it. Liverpool will not dare such sustained degree of press against Chelsea/ City. Arsenal under Arteta give teams way too much respect and it never ends well. We end up conceding cricket score lines despite his best efforts to park his trailer tactics/formation.

Klopp knows Arsenal are predictable and he needs the goals because it may come down to it on the final day and that is what he exploited. Klopp knows Arteta is not even close when it comes to tactics. Arteta is using us to learn the work and many of you are comfortable with that degree of mediocrity.

Jodera:
There's a reason the inzhaghis are no longer in vogue and the chicaritos are mostly bench warmers.

Even Tammy Abraham been see bench under tuchel even with him reasonable goalscoring stats.

The reasons are not peculiar to only Pep team

Jodera:
Of course!
Modern games demands that a striker should bring more than poaching to the field.

Jodera:
Auba without goals is useless
Same can't be said of Laca

Know this and know peace!!

Jodera:
False!!.
Like I said earlier, while goal is important and cannot he understated, but interplay is also important.

I remember when we played Tottenham(2nd leg) and Chelsea(1st leg) last season. Both games had Laca leading our line with Auba not available and I remember we playing a very beautiful game. Laca might not give you the goals, but he provides avenue for others to get into goalscoring opportunities. Even this season, since we moved to 442 with Laca as a starter, we've been attacking more and creating chances, yet I don't think Laca have got a goal or assist yet. We've played games last season with Laca starting(without auba) and the quality difference in cf was stark

You people are looking at Laca as if he's some form of balogun or nketiah when he's not

Amoto94:
Lewandowski is deserving of this year's award

Joezinho:
Why anyone gives this award the time of day blows my mind. It's meaningless.

"The Balon D'Or is a bunch of journalists and people voting for their friends" - Johan Cruyff, who won 3 of them...

The HEADIES award is more legit than this shiit..

Leyqute:
Forget.

If Barcelona had won the UCL in 2020, they’d have hosted a virtual Ballon d’Or event and handed it to Messi.

The fact that half of Messi’s ballon d’Ors are controversial says a lot about the award.

BlueMann:
Lewandowski's outrageous goal stats from the last two years is what endears many towards him.

Look deeper that that, then the argument begins to favour Messi.

It is, after all, for the best player, not just the best goalscorer.

Jodera:
I swear.
Auba horrible form dey vex me.
The worst part is that he isn't even contributing anything nor making darting runs again

BlueMann:
Mendy robbed FFS

SideshowBob:
If lewadowski or jorginho doesn't win this award then it should be scrapped.

Iliveforever:
Many people doesn’t know that when you’re a contract staff, the company will be secretly scared to withhold your salary or sack you anyhow without any reason because you can easily take them to industrial court and damages will be paid to you and you have the every right to ask for a review of your salary.

In America, almost all the workers are on contract with their place of work, but in Nigeria if we hear contract it’s as if you’re not fully employed.

sayhi2bammy:
I think they stepped it up to 100k around 2018. I don't know if they still pay same figure now.

popizaino:
Point me to any team that leaves a tall man CB for emergency during corner

raumdeuter:
The 3 defenders are tall and useful at set piece

Roland17:
Who leaves Jorg at the back for a set piece though? Ibime go finish all of una today.. Ibime food for months don land oh!

BlueAngel444:
couldn't even see the ball again

kodded:
Martinelli posses all the traits you listed out.

He is fast and a good goal scorer (head and feet)
And he can press like a mad man.

The only weakness is his body but that is because of his age, I think with time he will have a more bulky body, remember he is just 19 and he looks so big, imagine what constant gyming and training will do to his body in 3 years

kokanepyramid:
Reason I used "could" and whichever way a 32 year old striker shouldn't be considered as future.

kokanepyramid:
How can you use a 32 year old striker and "future" in same sentence.
This is even setting aside the fact he is African and this could even be his football age.

raumdeuter:
There might be one this weekend

Shukusheka:
So how will that work with AFCON being played every two years?
