Plot twist: Italy wins the Euros, Chelsea win the super cup and makes a stellar start to the season, with Jorginho playing key roles in all of these.

Jorginho wins the Ballon D'or

Jorginho is having an immense tournament so far

donstan18:
Chelsea don start again.

Running around making unnecessary deals for someone we don’t fully need. When he comes be and fails to perform more than who we underrated, you’ll see anti-British gangs hating on James.

Chelsea should get a striker first, it should be their main target, not all these ones they are doing.

I am sure the board knows who and what we need better than you.

Forget the red card Poland should be winning, this is Slovakia

Na Lewdoski dey fvck up, international flop

Very big flop. All he those is statpad against farmers and plumbers.

Joezinho:
[s] Typing like a typical shekpite after consuming bottles of ogogoro. His next destination is nairaland to type beer parlour trash.

Imagine what this goat is spewing. 66 goals in 120 international caps and you call him overrated?

73 UCL goals and you call him overrated.? This nitwit is drunk.. [/s].

Catfishing:
See his rating.....nigga be balling in Burndaliga and playing trash in Poland...nonsense

Never rated the fraud. Definition of a useless statpadder

Lewandowski is one of the most overrated stat padder of all time. I have never rated the idiot. Man built a career statpadding against Useless teams in Bundesliga. I bet he won't score more than one goal through out the entire tournament. Always flopping with Poland at every international tournament. Tueeh

No wonder people like Lukaku has 62goals for Belgium, Yarmolenko 41, Lewandoski 66 even Ronaldo with 104goals for their respective countries. The amount of useless countries in Europe to statpad with is endless.

Beast kor, boost ni.
Go watch the inter milan v atlanta match
and see how gosen ran over this lad. Not once, not twice.

Yes ignore 3 seasons of World-class performance and base your opinion of a player on one match. You are wonderfully made.

They are some kind of things you will read here that will irritate you instantly.

OJURONGBE1:
It's just an observation. Whatever they say is for their pocket. Inter milan are hyping him up, so that they can get good money from his sale.

Please just stop. Some of you just type and press submit for typing sake. Hakimi is a beast and have been exceptional right from Dortmund to Inter. A player Inter bought for 40million just last season from Madrid, how much do you want them to demand?

No James or Chilwill in England expected line up today.

User09:
To be honest, Many of those players were not Conte's signings.

I remember listening to some Italian interview a while back; where he was brazenly brutal about the whole thing.

The open confrontation with the board prior to his sack and even the legal drama says otherwise.

Was he ever going to agree they where his signings seeing as they all flopped badly? If Morata, Bakayoko etc became key players and delivered for Chelsea, would he have come out and said he never wanted them.

BlueAngel444:
he has been offered new contract according to rumor, Chelsea value him

Lamptey was also offered a new contract and still left.

I hope you guys realize Livramento has just one year left in his contract. He knows his not going to break into the first team anytime soon so could be a Lamptey situation where he leaves at Christmas.

BlueAngel444:
lmao, almost did not see this

Yes na. Look at his post, In his brain United and City will be playing each other for 38matches straight.

popizaino:
So man city will beat a fergie man United with Ronaldo Rooney tevez to the league.

They cant even beat Chelsea talk more of man United . Tell me another joke, is it this present man United that can't qualify from UCL group stage that you say can beat liverpool of around 2008?l

I don't understand, will Man City and United play against each other for the entire 38 league matches?

South African league na pure cruise

Shalaye FC

Argentina has played 6 World Cup qualifying games in which Messi played all of them, but he only has 1 goal(penalty) and zero assists.

If Argentina get dumped out of the copa America, you guys will find a way blame his teammates as usual

With the way that guy was typing you will think Messi was playing with Norwich city level type of players and not 100million Griezmann,120Milli Dembele,130milli coutinho , 60milli De Jong etc

MorataFC:
what?
If Messi is put for sale right now @ 150m many clubs will bid fight for him.

Zero

popizaino:
Yes I will rather Chelsea sign 35years old messi for 150m self than to sign halland for 120m .

Thank God you are not the owner of Chelsea or make transfer decisions for them.

popizaino:

He is finished till he reunites with pep Guardiola and this "finish" fly out of the window .
Messi is finished but some people are already scared of pep Guardiola getting him to city .

I don't care about Guardiola or city or going into pointless debate. The question was "So you will open eye and buy a 35yrs old and finished Messi for 120miliion and 1million per weekly wage ? Yes or no

Kilishihunter:
He didn't play any match against eibar last season, Hardly any businessman won't carry a 20yr old over a 34yr old, That's just it, If not I don't see anything haaland can do better than him as he's still growing

BlueMann:
There's little more he can do with the squad and players he plays with, and the manager at the helm of affairs.

Messi not doing a lot against the big teams should not be of any surprise if you actually follow Barcelona. Rather, you should ask yourself: how did the manager plan for those aforementioned big games?

Barca's tactics against them big boys was mostly pass to Messi and Inshallah. So once you lock Messi, the whole team becomes predictable and stale. Did you see the game against Real Madrid, when they lost 2-1? Did you see the tactics employed by Koeman? Busquets at DM, and an extremely high line featuring Pique against a Real Madrid side that were more than happy to sit back and hit on the counter, which is probably their biggest strengths. The moment the lineups were released and the formations predicted, even Barca fans knew they were in for some trouble. The only reason the scoreline was respectable was because of profligacy.

That has been the theme for Barca in most of the big games. And you expect Messi to do it all by himself? Which of the supporting cast raised their game? Griezmann? Dembele? Or is it youngsters like Dest, De Jong, Pedri, Ilaix Moriba abi Puig wey Koeman no even gree play? Abi na Braitwaithe? Sergi Roberto?? Lenglet?

And even against PSG, he got both their goals. Against Atletico nko, when his best chance came when he dribbled like four or five players before drawing a fantastic save from Oblak? And when Dembele had a clear chance, he nodded over.

That has been the theme of Barca's season, especially in big games.

My point is, you cannot conveniently say Messi is finished just because he "failed to turn up in the big games". That would be conveniently ignoring Barca's problems.

And I dare say if you remove Messi and put Mbappe, Ronaldo, Haaland, Neymar etc in that Barca team, they would not fare much better.

PS. This doesn't mean I feel 120m for Messi would be a smarter deal that 150m for Haaland.

Yes playing with 100Million Griezmann,120million Dembele, 130million coutinho, 60million De jong must be difficult for poor old Messi having to carry average players. Leave story bros. He never turned up against any of the big teams he faced last season rather he focused on stat padding against Eibar and their likes. He is finished.

donstan18:
Harry Kane over Messi is understandable because he’s tested and trusted.

Hålland over Messi in Chelsea is a big risk, unless we’ll give Dortmund Harvertz with 20m.

Baba no body is picking Messi over Haaland in 2021 leave all this story. One is finished and old while the other is on the path to greatness if he can maintain his current progress.

donstan18:
Choosing Messi over Halland is okay, only few will do otherwise.

Messi is tested. If he doesn’t score goals, he’s creating and assisting. He’s intelligent and good with free kicks.

Mbappe is tested, did well in Monaco, did well them in UCl against top teams and took them to semi finals, did and still doing well with France.

Still doing well with PSG. A big game player, he dey tidy both big and small teams. He dey create, run defenders down, gives good passes.

No dey compare am with Halland abeg!

Halland isn’t tested yet. He’s not proven shiit against big teams with tough defenders. No be Chelsea he suppose use prove am, we are not good in developing strikers.

Yes because 20ucl goals in 14matches is easy. Choosing Messi over Haaland in 2021 is madness. Hell am picking Harry kane over Messi as at today. Messi that's finished

BlueMann:
This Messi you people are calling finished...okay o.

Shey they said he was finished last season?

His 2021 performance neva shock una reach abi

What spectacular thing did he do in the champions league last season or against la Liga big teams ? You think stat padding against Eibar and Huscea will hide the fact that he is finished. So you will join those that will spend 120million plus 1million weekly wage on Messi?

DeadPresidents:
Haaland is a good striker but he struggles against low-block teams (which Dortmund don't get to face often).

German teams generally put more emphasis on attractive attacking play because TV money differentials means most lower teams don't have to "Orubebe" and adopt a "we die here" attitude to staying in the top division. In other words, you'll get better returns by playing attacking football and swelling your fan base with neutrals compared to doing a Burnley just to stay up.

Haaland's link up play with his back to goal still needs work. I've watched Dortmund games where Haaland's supply was cut-off and he looked pretty much invisible all game.

If you have a system that generates a lot of chances, then these deficiencies become less noticeable and you can obtain max output from him but don't expect him to contribute to your buildup as much as say a Kane/Lewandowski would.

Haaland however is young and still has time to develop his game even further and he is a freak of nature so I still see him becoming one of the deadliest strikers in the world.

Can you provide 3 to 5matches against those low block teams where you saw Haaland struggling? I want to watch them for myself to confirm.

So they are actual people that will buy a 34yr old finished Messi with over 1million weekly wages over a 20yr old Haaland and 21yrs old mbappe in 2021. It can only be ment na

popizaino:


Let fantasize a bit so if Halland is available for 150m and Barcelona decide to offer us messi for 120m,you will go for Halland citing age as the reason for your choice ?

So you will open eye and buy a 34yr old and finished Messi for 120miliion? Check your self

HewlettPackard:
Anything from that German league take it with a pinch. They play amateur football. EH hasn't done anything to to activate the figures I'm seeing on SM.

100mil euros, little above 80mil pounds and a wage btw 170-200 should do it IMHO.

Of course the Bundesliga is a farmers league everybody knows that but have you seen Haaland champions league records., 20goals in 16matches. Well your opinion doesn't matter to the top clubs who will be fighting for his signature next season. For Chelsea to stand a chance this season we have to offer Dortmund a price they can't turn down. 100Million is not going to cut it.

HewlettPackard:
Anything above £80m to dortmund for EH and a weekly wage above 200 is simply stupid, and i haven't known marina to engage in stupid business.

Lol Psg are negotiating to buy Hakimi from inter for 60million plus 10million in bonuses and that's for only a right back but you are here typing that Haaland, who is one of the best striker in the world with so much potential at just 21 should go for nothing more than 80million. Fear God o
