No be this AitNouri our fans de cry say we no buy? Veey rubish player. The day I knew he is rubish was when Akor and Osayi Cooked him at AFCON

odizeey:
We learn every day sha. E no go better for all those yeye system coaches.

If we are not making Carrick permanent we should look for a coach that loves the idea of winning.

See Flick. As things bad for Barca the guy always finds a way to win.

Nothing concern Fergie with system. Just gather ballers sharpen your tactics and have strong winning mentality. Shikena

chrisley024:
of what

Dying minute equaliser.

Thank God omo fear wan finish me

Afrodoc2, abeg whatsup with that guy Orozsco abi na wetin be him name sef, wey we sign. they said he is the nee Caicedo. Do we have hope or abi mke we mind our business?

Because that Leon guy we bought that was crying as he was leaving Colombia, even U21 sef de hard am.

LostMyZeal:
But they Said City was the real test considering they had picked up a rhythm. After seeing what happened to City, they said Arsenal would be the realest test when it comes to strong teams considering their home record. After that, they said Fulham.


where precisely is the destination of this goal post?

Veey soon Grimsby will be the real test. 😀😀

Leyqute:
I’m a bit worried about Amad. He’s not as dangerous as he once was. His ambition and hunger has taken a hit. He still puts in the effort and his work in the team is evident.

But I’d like him to be more daring in certain moments or even have the belief that he can make something happen. Instead he just takes the safest options in most cases when faced with some difficulty.

It’s almost as if his growth has stagnated. Hopefully it’s another stage in his arc and he can become extremely dangerous in the next months cos I know how talented he is.

Amad ia still dangerous and is one of our best and most important players, his Ambition is still intact, he is a human being so will witness reset sometimes, he is putting in the rigjt work and attitude

afrodoc2:
Yes, Sesko has the box movement and aerial presence to work well against low blocks, and Cunha has just enough dribbling, invention, long-range shooting, and pace to trouble any block (low or high). He just needs to work on his touch, which can sometimes be loose.

Amad can work against any block as well. Once he improves his finishing and starts targeting and hitting the far post area of the goal, e don be for EPL LBs.

You are correct on all the players. Amad seems to be the only person in our team that can comfortably take on defenders. Even Bruno is good too against low block.
I think the key issue we had versus low block is the pace of our defenders If we get a proper press resistant Midfielders and Pacy defenders we will prosper against low block teams. And I hate to say this, but Arsenal strategy of using setpieces as an alternative to unlock teams like that is what we should try to use tpo
I

afrodoc2:
The manner in which he does it is also Important. If he just does Jama jama and wuruwuru to the answer to get it then that is not sustainable or easily repeatable.

In all our excitement we should try avoid repeating the Ole mistake.

If he does well give him 1 year contract. With an option to activate 1 more year. Madrid has Arbeloa now Chelsea has Rosenior so Ole’s mistake is unlikely. All these hipstar coaches dont work most times.
Any coach not named Flick, Enrique or Pep. Then we continue with Carrick

afrodoc2:
Not as explicit as your post but when i mentioned Carrick's coaching crew it was Holland i was talking about.

Carrick with Boro was known for setting up his teams to create chances but they also conceded chances. At least that is what heard. So, this our defensive solidity is probably partly due to Holland.

Woodgate has also been mentioned as a very good coach too

afrodoc2:
I think you are right about Holland. That is why I mentioned Carrick’s coaching staff in an earlier post.

Holland is said to be a very good defensive organiser who did some good work at Chelsea and with the national team.

I think given the pedigree of Holland and I also heard that Woodgate is very good as a defensive coach. I think if we add 2/3 more coaches with variable skills, they will make a formidable coaching crew to suceed. Even Arteta was also inexperienced when he joined Arsenal. So why not Carrick if he does well till the end of the season.

afrodoc2:
Yes. If he delivers a convincing top 3-4 finish playing good football and front foot football especially against the lower teams he will be in contention. If that happens then we can't reject him for another unproven manager like Glasner, De Zerbi etc. Only top tier managers like Enrique, Flick, Nagelsmann should be considered if Carrick does extremely well in this interim period.

But like you said, the real test will come against the lower teams. Can he device a way to consistently breakdown low blocks and can he find a way to inspire the players to consistently play with the same energy and discipline against unfashionable teams.

5th place will inevitably deliver UCL football, considering that Laliga and Bundesliga have 1 team each knocked out of the UCL already, and Bilbao and Napoli are struggling.

If Carrick can get 5th place which should get us UCL, i will suggest he stays and we back him in the summer.

Jamiuokolaa:
Haha

I think we still have Chelsea away and Liverpool at Home.

I go like see our approach vs minnows in like 4 games... 2 home, 2 away.

Then maybe....

Chelsea away is the issue, we can beat Liverpool at home. For Chelsea away we can play haram football and scrap a draw. They are our rivals for the top 4 race

Scamorim said if you want to change the idea you need to change the man. Scamorim na werey i swear

Leyqute:
He has scored against City, Arsenal and Liverpool, all in his first season for us. Na Chelsea remain.

And Spurs

We were veey cowardly at first and we got punished. We need to remain compact, but we have to take the game to them. This Arsenal team is not really better than us with much. They are just a more settled team

elyte89:
No b Una talk say nothing concern fifa with aw d passport was issued and deir constitution? …leave dt assignment to the country on aw Dey will get d parents …once Dey can issue a genuine passport and Dey can back it with deir own claims and FIFA confirms it’s a genuine passport,den Dey re good to go


With dis format ,na Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 or Bahrain 🇧🇭 go Dey win World Cup going forward

Dont mind them, Saudi wey don get parents ready sef. Dey play

Karlovych:
DR Congo issued passports to those players because their parents are Congolese, I wonder where Qatar and Bahrain will get South Americans with parents with Qatari and Bahrain origin.

Dont worry, the grandparents of those Brazilians, Argentines and Spanish players will emerge from Saudi. De play. The way Saudi and Qatar them go take pack players eeh, e go shock una

Jamiuokolaa:
One cannot even celebrate Liverpool's loss

CL/UEL qualification would likely go down to the wire.

Atleast 8 teams are literally neck on neck..vying for atmost, 3spots!

England will get the extra UCL slot. 60-62 points will be enough to lock in 5th at the minimum. Just forget about the table and focus on getting vital strategic wins and draws if need be.

Joebie:
prompting Gemini further

You are arguing strongly based on your conversation with Gemini. Gemini, grok, Chat gpt etc has given me a lot of false information before, so leave Gemini and be realistic.

🇩🇿 Algeria punishments for Nigeria match:

—Zidane, 2 match ban

Hmmmn with this sanction. I wonder what they are going to do to Senegal. Their own sanction go long oo

ChrisKels:
Senegal should walk off the pitch.

Exactly

minfelix:
Senegal should have been EXTRAAAAAAAA careful at that moment naaaaa….this game was easily going to the extra time na

So they should not mark ball again

Everyone was laughing at Nigeria

Senegal should walk off the whole of Africa will support them

Mrviktor:
Kudos to him.

He should be a converted winger

I understand your reservations about him, and its justified at times, but he is a young player that just came from relagation battlers in Seria A. With the right coaching he will be a monster. We are looking at something closer to Nuno Mendes.

I am for allowing young players to thrive low key without pressure until they reach like 24ish, thats when their true potentials show. Ofcourse there are outliers but those ones are very few and rare, and even in many cases taper out before they reach 28. Look at Delle Alli, Rooney(I am very harsh here though), Rashford, Owen etc

eph12:
It will be interesting to see ineos transfer decisions in the summer. I'm not convinced they'll want to spend that much unless we make good sales

We wil spend heavy on the midfield.

Lana1:
Rashford ship has sailed abeg. Let everybody involved move on from that relationship.

I don't think we should sell Ugarte just yet. We can keep him for another year as 4th choice CM for squad depth.

I'll prefer we sell Dalot but I can live with him eating bench

Sell Ugarte, we can recoup something for him now.
Get Anderson plus 1 more CM. I think Ruben Neves is even free in the Summer

I think Lacey will mature at a rate that will surprise many next season, we need to add a LW.

Dalot can stay as long as he is 2nd choice. I think we need an experienced striker on a low fee or free.

Trevor012:
We can actually pipe Liverpool to that 4th position. Top 5 might even be good enough for champions league football next season.

5th is enough for UCL

chrisley024:
Seems Cunha getting sense by passing.

Na the benching wey him recieve

nani667:
#AmorimOUT
#SackTheFraud
#JailTheBasterd

!!!!!

Amorim has been sacked na. Which one again are you talking about

K

Lana1:
Amorim also beat City. We've always beaten them playing counter attacking football. The same counter attacking football that wasn't regarded as tactics when Ole did it 4 times in a row.

Let's hope we can get something against Arsenal and Fulham.

And win or lose Dalot is still shît

Make we no lie, this particular beating was a resounding one.
