dmcdad: As much as preseason matches are good for the coaches to test alot out. It doesn't really mean much because often times, teams end up cleaning the slate during preseason, while they fumble when the nitty-gritty comes around.

Madrid had lost their three preseason games. Does that mean they won't destroy teams come the new season? It doesn't at all!

So Sanogo can score 10 goals in one match. When season start, them go separate boys from men.

Destroy wetin! --- And end up trophyless...

Antell95: 20 mins Ago

Smh...

Zahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...

afrodoc: about?

coded01: That's not true... --- He has proven himself but instead of giving him more playing time, Fergie n Moyes preferred to play Welbeck ahead of him even when he hardly impress, although we know why! He is English!

You didn't reply me... --- But Hernandez did reply you...

afrodoc: lol.

Antell95: Another Corner

Which corner?

Zahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...

chrisley024: U dey watch ur own i dey watch my own

I dey watch Gunness International Champions Cup Game --- You dey watch people for game house play Winning Eleven!

chrisley024: Was still surprised he did dribble against Madrid

Which dribble? --- No bi dis same match we dey watch ni?

afrodoc: I would still give Zaha some time to get used to playing as a striker and improve his finishing. there is still hope for him.
seems van gaal has not been impressed with chicharito and he is going to offload him.....NOW chicharito is the one who has not significantly improved his game over the years

That's not true... --- He has proven himself but instead of giving him more playing time, Fergie n Moyes preferred to play Welbeck ahead of him even when he hardly impress, although we know why! He is English!

chrisley024: Ofcourse I know he was injured but y Zaha for Welbeck when Chicha is there?

You are very right! But it seems he is transfer-bound! --- Moreso, Van Gaal does *not* have him in his plans @ all...


Zaha is just one those players that never seem to grow up! Haba! You either pass to Rooney or shoot but my friend dey try impress himself...

dmcdad: Hehehehehehehe. Abeg ooooo.

My friend swerve...

chrisley024: Hmmm! Zaha in for Welbeck
Van Gaal doing his selection

Its obvious you aren't watching the game! --- Welbeck injured...

This one wey Young dey ball like this... --- Are we seeing the return of Ashley?

This is why Zaha won't see any game in this coming Season unless a miracle...


Typical Zaha... --- Pass to Rooney or shoot but my friend dey think...

ELYMAXiimus: he was no where to be found like that soap opera!


for where?
He won't be banging goals! unless on bed!

This is the only time you see players like him perform!

He will be benched nd forced to learn how it's done from sanchez

Smh...

What a miracle?


Ashley Young scores... --- oh I forget na friendly...

ELYMAXiimus: so, u're tryna say, he played rubbish through out his stay at the camp nou?

Alexis is a fine player, sanogo took the day,,, not cos he's better! Alexis just got there nd he's just warming up! Soon, he'll be banging the nets!

Where was Sanogo last season? --- Let Season starts n we see those friendly-goals in real games...

dmcdad: If Piqué were to be worthy, then I guess Puyol would have bestowed the number 5 jersey on him.

That tells alot for him to hand it over to Busi.

Exactly... . --- no bi you talk sey why e no give ur padi...

dmcdad: I have never rated him high albeit at a time we nicknamed him Piqué bus stop. Guess Puyol was the inspiration behind his performances then.

I know I started complaining bitterly two seasons ago. And JP would always counter whatever I say about him. I guess he is happy that his favoured Piqué has been great thus far. I was the enemy then. I guess that would make me the what now...

Definitely, he inspired him, Puyol was a great Captain who does not take non-sense from his colleagues...

dmcdad: I wonder ooooooo

I initially rated him among the best defenders, maybe top 5 then but with the injuries that led Puyol to retire, it is really showed how lucky Pique has been to pair with the Great Puyol... --- Attache...


Infact Mascherano has also been the better player among the two only his height is just a minus for a defender...

homesteady: Pique is actually trying oh!
The nice boys are too rough

The same Pique abi another one...

homesteady: As I saw the referee, I just knew he was a foool! I wonder why he'll blow for a PK for that minor push!

The nice boys are even more threatening than us! Let me not just be a pessimist!

Forget that thing...


Why must it be Pique?

PENALTY! Nice win themselves a great chance to take the lead! Cvitanich rises to meet a cross from the left and he is nudged in the back back Pique and the referee points to the spot.

Obviously, Piqué has been "found out" --- if not for Baba Puyol...
