iamoyindamola:

How many did they lose with osihmeh and without osihmeh
I am waiting?

They lost matches with and without Oshimen. The point you are trying to prove is non existent.

iamoyindamola:

Yet osihmeh has injury and they dropped points and lost out on UCL

They lost matches and dropped points with Oshimen playing as well.

liveLongNprospa:
I hope osimhen gets the mvp at this point with how the league is moving.
But people can see how a different form of bigotry can pain when it's carried out against a Nigerian

Maradonna and Kvara are similar players so it make sense. Both are dribblers who score and provide assists. Kvaratskhelia was the playmaker at Napoli just like maradonna was. His nick name is even Kvaradonna. It's just similarities of the players nothing to do with racism.

liveLongNprospa:

Osimhen more than deserves it.
He had the highest contribution to their title.
It's annoying that such a picture would even be posted.

Kvaratskhelia was actually Napoli best player from August to Early March before he dropped form.

Mrviktor:


Rashford won't deliver when u really need him to.

Unlike Benzema. Salah. Kane.. Halland.. Mbappe.. Lewandowski nd other top goal getters.

His conversion rate is really low

Rashford has actually been clinical this season. He has an xG of 13 but has 16 league goals. The problem is you only remember the ones he misses but not the other times he was clinical and scored from difficult positions winning us games. That's what stats will always show you.

Leyqute:


According to this stats, Man city has a better xGA than Newcastle yet they've conceded more than Newcastle.

We have the same xGA as Chelsea but they've conceded way more goals than we have.

Stats don't tell the whole story.

My point is simple: with Greenwood in this side, we'll score more goals. It doesn't matter if you have a low xG, you'll score more goals if your strikers are clinical.

Liverpool had an xG lower than 3 against us at Anfield but they scored 7 goals.

Stats will always tell the story if you are over performing or under performing. Having a low xG already tells us we are not creating enough clear cut chances. In terms of xG we are not top 4. Having an high xGa already tells us we are allowing the opponent to create clear cut chances. We are not top 4 as well in terms of restricting opponents from creating clear cut chances. Average possession we are not top 4 as well. xPTS we are not top 4 too. You are only looking at our performances and not the other team performances in matches we were lucky to win or get a draw this season. Infact using xPTS we are already over performing by being in 4th because our actual performance will have us in 6th talkless of being title contenders.

Leyqute:


Bros forget.

With Greenwood in this side, we’ll still be in the talk of the title race. We might not be strong contenders but we won’t be 15 points away from second place. Worst case scenario, we’d be 2 or 3 points away from number 2.

Brighton away, Leeds, Crystal Palace, Tottenham away, Newcastle home. We wouldn’t have dropped so many points unnecessary. Even that Arsenal away game we wouldn’t have lost.

People always underrate Greenwood until he starts scoring and proves them wrong.

We are not even amongst the top 4 teams in the league this season using underlying stats. xG( Expected goals) We are not top 4, xGA(Expected goal against) not top 5, xPts(Expected points) Not top 5. Using performance index Manchester city, Arsenal, Newcastle and Brighton have better than us this season. Stats doesn't back your opinion of us being title contenders even with Greenwood.

Jodera:
We would never know yet BUT there's no precedence we could hold onto. Like Trevor said, Greenwood have scored only 12goals in last 52 matches. This is not the stats of someone who alights EPL that you'll think with his presence alone, you guys would compete for the league.

Is this Rashford only season in which he's scored 20+ goals? I don't think so, and if I browse it, I'll be probably right that this isn't.

But have Greenwood ever scored 20+ goals?
Yet you feel he'll be the one to drag you guys as title challengers. Let's even pretend as if you guys have been dominating teams like the real "title challengers" sef?

Like I said earlier, biko no make us laugh

We wouldn't have been title contenders for sure but he would have scored a lot more than previous seasons. Take your own martinelli as an example who has 15league goals this season, that's the kind of progression Greenwood would have had. Martinelli had never scored double league digits goals before in his career, he has 15 this season and we all know Greenwood was the better and more clinical player between both. Martinelli has scored more goals this season than in his 3 other league season combined.

Casemiro is too reckless. Hope he doesn't get sent off

olabode89:
Enciso just dey dribble Case anyhow.

He has him on strings.

Shaw breaking line pases is reminding me of Martinez.

Casemiro is a really poor passer.

LostMyZeal:
We don't even hammer teams on a regular, but see the numbers and make a mental calculation of what it could've been if we had forwards who aren't selfish.

Look how we've fared in comparison to teams that are well organized. What do you see?


ETH will reign

I won't read much into that. Most of those goals came In the Europa and caraabo cup against weak teams. Our Premier league tally is a better indication of were we are and we are only outscoring the likes of Fulham, Villa, Leicester and Leeds by 3 to 5 goals. Infact we have scored the least amount of goals in the top 8.

Blake755:
That una dead midfield

Which position in the midfield?

Blake755:
Of course let's man u continue turning a blind eye
🇳🇱 Xavi Simons (20) has been involved in 30 goals (18G + 12A) in 44 games for PSV this season so far!

🔥 He has created 53 chances and completed 62 dribbles in Eredivisie this season.

✅ Second highest rated player in the league (7.86).
This guy and Bellingham who do you rate high above the other

What position should we sign him for?

Ray07:
make we leave hate and jealousy aside . . . Man City the really run their club well.

Every players the literally asked to united united to sign, man City end up signing them.

From Dias, Akaji, Alvarez and Halland.
Have this players been delivering, yes they have for me especially Akaji. The guy really surprised me.
These guys could have been united players if we had competent board and not delusional money drunk individuals.

They are performing because of Pep. Guardiola is the reason City are dominant and consistent season after season not their board same way we were dominant under Ferguson. Carry those same players to United and their performance levels will drop. You will start blaming the board for buying them and wasting money.

patrickmuf:
No, it doesn't.

Bayern, Madrid, Arsenal, and others sign players who are not superstars in most cases and they go ahead to do well.

I know what I am saying. I mentioned Danny Ings here 3-4 years ago and guys here laughed off the signing but this same club signed Ighalo, Cavani etc. In the same period, Ings scored more goals compared to the ones we got.

It's less risky to sign 2 players for 50m each than a single player for 100m.

It applies to all big clubs. We have also signed players who are not superstars and performed well. Top clubs will always go for established players. The same way you are complaining now is how arsenal fans are saying why didn't they sign Caicedo for 6million when he was in south America instead of the 80million Brighton would want currently or Chelsea fans saying why didn't they sign Enzo from River plate for 20million instead of the 110million they paid.

patrickmuf:
The first time I heard of Caicedo he was being linked to Manchester United but as usual, the fans wanted established footballers and will always pressure the board to sign established players. Now, the same fans want the board to go after Caicedo and pay a huge fee.

This applies to all top clubs.

Donjazet2:
If only we could manage our resources adequately.

I made this point some time ago.

Bombblacks:

Normally the oil producing states should have been the feather in cap for Nigeria. If you look at the American states of Texas, Alaska, Louisiana, and California, their growth was fueled in part or largely by oil. The cities of Houston and Dallas were built on oil money, and so was the state of Alaska. A state rich in Oil is supposed to be booming, I mean look at common Dubai. The oil producing areas of Nigeria should have been the catalyst of the industrial revolution in Nigeria. They should have been home to numerous industries such as pharmaceutical (Aspirin uses petroleum), cosmetic oils and greases, Industrial oils and greases, plastics resins synthetic fibers, industrial and domestic detergents, chemical fertilizers, and a host of other industries that depend on crude oil for raw materials. So much possibilities wasted.

akwesenana:
Omo
Which team go gree pay Scancho 300k?
Scancho will leave on free transfer except he agrees to a pay cut in another team.

Those are wrong figures. Sancho is on 250k a week.

patrickmuf:
To who? Terminate that contract bro.

Terminate his contract and lose money paying him off then he signs for another club for free. Maguire is England first choice center back and will go for 30 to 50million easily.

odizeey:


Maybe you should read again.

Everyone was pointing out De gea awful record at penalities. That was the only discussion.

odizeey:


Who argued that pena is his strength?

Then why are you commenting when people are calling out De gea for his poor record at penalities.

8 penalty shout-out for De gea in his Career 0 saves. His penalty record is very very terrible.

Nezzjnr:
Awb tried though

Immediately he left Mitoma started causing problems.

Maguire should be sold today. Shaw is very solid in that position. How can a fullback be better than a center back in his own position.

Somebody was talking about Twitter alternative the other day Jack Dorsey just launched his own Bluesky.

GloriousGbola:


you're right

and that trend is even more disturbing

completely unpredictable

can anyone explain exactly how twitter makes money

i mean - during the panedemic when everyone was trapped at home, and when the finances of all the tech companies rose, they made a loss - their biggest loss to date. it should have been their finest hour -

elon don buy market true true

Musk overpaid for it and so has straddled it with more debt. Almost like Glazers with Manchester United. Twitter wasn't that far from profitable before Musk. It had positive cash flow for the first half of this year , had minimal debt, had significant cash reserves. As with most tech websites, it survived this long by coasting off of investment capital in the hopes of getting even bigger and then becoming profitable.

GloriousGbola:


Twitter has to turn a profit or die.

it is as simple as that.

amazon started in 1994 - its first profit was in 2001

twitter started in 2006 - it is yet to turn a profit.

Twitter turned profits in 2018 and 2019.

Leyqute:


Hallelujah.

Maybe we'll have a chance.

Casemiro at CB.

Bruno and Eriksen in Midfield

Useless Sabinus at AM.

Maybe we'll get away with it.

Or maybe Varane will be available sef.

Varane-Lindelof pairing.

Then Case, Eriksen and Bruno in midfield

Anyways, I'll likely not watch the game.

It's most likely Lindelof and Shaw partnership with Awb and Dalot in the full backs position.

Leyqute:


Na strongman go watch that match. It’s likely they’ll play rubbish again.

Unless we replace Magwaya with McTom or sth.

The lineup will determine if I’ll watch that game or not.

Maguire is suspended.

Itsrm:


The only verification I've seen is phone number verification. Anyone can do that

Identity verification and others.
