If na moanrimhoe FC ....dey will be parking ships,buses,airplanes and trains against loserpool. See as pochettino dey dominate loserpool

Pochettino >>>>>>>>>>>moanrimhoe #fact!!

Like una no dey park bus

He should win even plastic cup 1st before being compared to his grandfathers

Loogan:
Nawa for una ooh do you know how many more goal we would have consided if not for Baka in that midfield? He's far from the finished article but I can bet every penny, Matic would not do a better job defensively for Chelsea than Baka would. In case you don't know man united first choice was Baka, we managed to get him over them, some with kante. He's young and has wonderful potential, don't you think Chelsea at this point are thinking and planning for the future with having young quality players.
I don't know about you but in my opinion Baka gives me a better defensive assurance than matic does, and he's 22 and one of the best in his position at that age, so chill don't drag your players down especially when they are obviously giving their best, this guy gives his all everytime, if you don't appreciate him I'm definitely sure conte and Chelsea players value him immensely.

Where you saw this

Buhahahaha!

patrickmuf:
Are our players robots, why is it so difficult for us to press and retrieve the ball in dangerous positions like City and Barca do? Jose Mourinho

These attributes, passion and urgency, are more of a player than the manager though.

patrickmuf:
God bless you, Pep will do wonders with Mhkitaryan, Mata, Martial and Herrera, short intricate passes...

Guy forget stroy o! It is more than intricate passes. One thing you cannot take away from Pep's team is the pressing from everyone once they lose possession, the urgency and attitude which we've been lacking for a number games now. Yesterday's game was lost on this.

patrickmuf:
How won't Martial look like bench players when we are set up to contain rather than have a go at teams that square up against us...Please I'd like folks here to sit down and watch our game little emphasis on the very small details we take for granted for instance, when Martial is on the ball running at the defenders, you'd find Young still in our half on most occasions or not making the right run to draw defenders away from Martial, also, you have a technical and physically limited Lingard saddled with the responsibility of linking the midfield and attack and combining with the wingers and you expect swashbuckling football? You are indeed in wonderland...
And who uses two holding midfielders against a team like Huddersfield? Yes Herrera and Matic are both playing as holding midfielders and it's down to Mou to instruct Herrera to bump forward or find other solutions...

Exactly, I was seeing like 4 players at that left flank. He's also to blame; his delay when he gets the ball increases the number of players marking him unlike Rashford that starts running immediately and he should move with the ball into the midfield when the flank is clogged problem is the LB not joining in attack. Even Rashford that came in didn't create anything. Another problem is everyone knows our attack is through that left, there was more space on the right yesterday, their player just needed to stay infront of Valencia and there was space between the player and their LB but unfortunately we don't use a right winger

slimghost:
I wholeheartedly disagree. Better player in what sense please? Just mention one notable thing he did right for the whole 90 minutes. Lukaku and Rashford were way way better then the headless chicken yesterday.
Let's not confuse lots of movememt with effectiveness. Ikedia had lots of movements too.

Lingard with his headless chicken movement while Miki goes into ghost mode or Mata falling like he was under anointing. Depends on which one chooses

CapitalCee:
No pogba na baller last last, the guy good. When he was there everything was flowing, and another problem was that Jones injury, if he had been around it would have been another clean sheet. Lindelof fall my hand walahi , the scout would have easily seen his flaws na, He has one or two disaster in him per game. Poor signing for now, those mistakes are sunday league standard.
One of Rojo or Bailly have to be back ASAP or we will just be fighting for top 4.

This is my concern. I'm sure he showed the H'field attacker his jersey number twice for the 1st goal. I can't imagine him against top epl teams.

Nihilist:
Judging by Evertons league and European positions, I'm not sure this statement is factually accurate.

I think selling Keane and buying Linjollof is more like selling Shittu....to buy Shittu

Not his fault for a team's poor performance. Dude showed his quality in Burnley unlike this one that makes howlers leading direct to goals.

kelvinze:
bro..I'm a man u fan,believe me when I say lindelof is poo. Yes DDG struggled buh he was just a 20 yrs old rookie at dah time. We signed bailly last season and it didn't take him dah much time...in my honest opinion,I think its suicide playing lindelof in league matches(he can play d league cup games)

DDG has some qualities like shot stopping but what's this guy's defensive quality

Nihilist:
Where is that guy that was bragging about how Lindelof was a Portuguese league champion.

Huddersfield would be in the Champions League if they were from say Albufeira in Portugal, instead of windy wet Yorkshire

I said Jose shouldn't start him in our 1st epl match after watching him in preseason and against Madrid.

Selling Keane and buying this clown is like selling Maldini and buying Shittu

spartacus11:
Jose Mourinho on Man United: "The team that wanted it more won. When the best team wins there is nothing to say."

Good response. No intensity and urgency. They were playing on Wednesday like it's a friendly match.

elampiro:
Herrera can't fill Pogba's shoes even 70%. Forward play dictated by the CM is dead.

How's this connected to your previous post about captainship?
You need to chill

elampiro:
You no know ball. He rendered himself ineffective with that yellow and final warning from the ref. After the yellow, he committed three quick offences, and was given last warning. He couldn't function well again.

So Martial yellow is the reason for the two foolish errors that led to the goals? If they can't give him the ball, how about other players or is Martial the only attacker we have.

You really know ball

First, our over dependence on the left flank is having its negative impact. Most teams now crowd that area and we've no answer for it yet since no good winger on the right. Valencia that helps there has been poor, easy to render ineffective or has poor cross. I can't believe we use two converted full backs
All our 10 are sh!t; Miki, Mata and Lingard. Jose should kukuma revert to 433 and use
McTom with Rashford and Martial on both flanks

elampiro:
Three months ago, during the summer, some guys here argued for a long time that Herrera should be captain. I wonder if they still think same way now.

Also, same period, some said one of the 'useless English' centre defenders should be sold because we bought Lindelof. I remember suggesting we allow him to kick ball first. When he played the pre-season, he was exposed too quickly as one unable to read aerial balls. Although I think he can still come good later.

This loss is seriously affecting you. Wetin concern captainship with today's loss

elampiro:
Martial was partly the reason we lost. He was our best attacking player, but within 13 minutes of play he had put himself in danger of getting a red card. He got a yellow and last warning within 13 minutes. So be could not function well, and the lads were afraid to play with him in tight situations.

What's this

slimghost:
5 things I learnt from this game.

1. Lukaku needs creative players around him to perform optimally
2. We need complete wingers.
3. Lindelof is not ready yet.
4. We need a creative attacking midfielder in the mould of KDB.
5. Mourinho still doesn't understand his players abilities and how well to use them.

From what he played today, dude should come and be going . United don't buy unready players. What are our youth for then

I'm not perturbed. We saw it coming and have been complaining of the performance since.


Untoda next game.

Lingard is even better than this Missing

Unfortunately no afroman for aerials

Lukaku just showed these fools what they should be doing for him

MRTA7:
Martial has been poor and on a yellow.

Except for his card. Lingard is uber useless and we need more bodies upfront cos only Lukaku is inside the box.

We try if we score sef

Blind should come on for Lindelof. Atleast he'll help in passes.

This Lingard sees at all

Smalling changed position with Lindelooof and they've targeted him, Lindelof, again.

Why can't Jose just put Rashford without removing Martial

slimghost:
Tuanzebe is way way better than Lindelof. Then I can't understand why Mourinho is playing an effective Lingard behind a striker. The headless chicken can neither spot a pass nor create nada.

Darmian wouldn't do this RB.
Rashford should come in for Mata or Lingard immediately if we're to get any hope

weedtaker:
christ, see viewers, we better no lose dis game o

how we wan even get draw with this we're playing

Darmian is better in that CB abeg

Lindelooof!
Jose knows why he hasn't played him in epl
