Obiagu1: [size=16pt]Can someone name a coach that performed better than Stephen Keshi in Nigerian history?[/size]

Can you please imagine Ejide replacing Enyeama for the Word Cup games and you can guess if everyone won't call for Keshi's head?

bykebyke: Won't it be better to bench pique+busquets


Then Marquinhos+ Bartra.... with Mascherano starting as a DM!!

Like i initially predicted, you act like a Real Madrid fan in disguise!


How on earth do you want this to happen? ---- Barca can kiss every title good-bye...

honeric01: And become a starter? heck no, i rather we use Pique + Bartra and have him come in as substitute.

Formation should look this way

............................ Bravo

Cuadardo................ Pique ................. Bartra ................. Alba.....................


........... Ratikic ........... ..Busquet ............................ Iniesta

.................... Messi

................. Suarez ................... Neymar

When did Bartra become so reliable...


Abeg oh! The more i see Bartra in this formation, the more he reminds me of Bale! Haha...

bykebyke: Liga fixtures aren't out yet

Person blood is hot...


Relax, let Messi come back with the trophy 1st...

alekside: Kezman, Mutu, Shevchenko, Crespo, Torrid... The list goes on

My guy, i decided not to go into names because we won't stop quoting...

shadrach77: Yobo is even good. How can any sensible coach take Shola Ameobi to the World Cup? Shola Ameobi who scored 3 goals in 2 years for Newcastle. Why?

Its painful!


Why leave Ikechukwu Uche who scored 14 goals for Villareal last season in Spain Top Division having led his team to the 6th position for a Shola Ameobi who scored 3 goals in 2 years for Newcastle that finished in the 12th position last season?


Yet some people would come on here defending him... --- Haba! Smh...


As for the defenders, i learnt he left fit ones for injured ones in the name of what

alekside: He'd be the reincarnation of Kezman

Before Chelsea, he was a promising striker but since he arrived @ Chelsea, he has been cluless and since he left, no one has heard of him!

alekside: That's why I pity Diego Costa for making his move. Would be sweet and painful seeing him go the Torres route

The World Cup Experience already shown the fever! --- No single shot on target in 2 games @ the World Cup...

alekside: Yeah, it's every player's dream to play for either Barca or Madrid. that's why I'm not faulting the guy, unlike Torrid who left us for Chelski

Based on history since Mourinho initially took over as Chelsea coach in 2004, promising players' careers are either tarnished or prone to injuries and as for the established players, they are soon forgotten...

Chelsea isn't a club for ambitious players or else ... --- Where players are trained to be school-boys defenders...


Everybody "Pack the bus" jare...

cirmuell: yeah right, take a flight now and go ask for 1sec of Bill gate's time.(just to snap with him)

Wicked...


Man neva see food chop na human being next to .................

saasala: With my lame analysis, i seem not to have an iota idea what the game of football entails. The same Ike Uche was at the Nations Cup in 2013 and didnt make any meaningful impact. Without him, the lads succeeded. He jetted back to his club and started scoring goals. This shows that he has his club in his heart than his country. Joseph Yobo performed well at this world cup, and as for the own goal, anyone in the world can do that.

I hear you sir!

bykebyke: Or just give us Sterling + Agger.. Take Sanchez free

Wicked...

alekside: Should be "I doubt if Barca's £80m would be good enough to lure him..."

As much as i support Liverpool, i strongly believe its every dream of an ambitious player to play for Barcelona whether any fan likes it or not... ---- So if its left to players alone to decide where they prefer to play .... --- Barcelona FC would be chorused a million times...

bykebyke: This is where

Kareem Benzema comes to mind!!!

As much as a few clubs would rush to buy him i don't see him as a 20 goal-bound striker! --- Liverpool should not give it a thought...

alekside: The problem is finding one that can easily replace Suarez. All we can do now is to sign 2 or 3 quality players that can help mo litigate the effect of Suarez loss.

I think James Rodriguez should be ideal but i doubt if Liverpool would be strong enough to lure him amid other wealthy competitors...

alekside: I doubt we'd ever go for Balotelli. Just some lazy Jornos linking him with Liverpool.

Make we just handle dat una £80m first We'd know who to buy

alekside: Shaqiri
Balotelli
Markovic
James Rodriguez (my wish )

So Liverpool is dragging Balotelli with Arsenal now? --- As for Markovic, i have no ideal how good he is!

I would fancy Shaqiri playing for Liverpool! James Rodriguez has been a revelation @ this World Cup! -- He is everyone's wish...

As for Balotelli, i hope he won't end up beating the coach or sterling, Sturridge or anyone that cross his path...

bykebyke:

--- Though i rate him above all Chelsea strikers ---- But...

bykebyke: Lukaku

Its now i know how funny you are!

bykebyke: Liverpool should look for a striker that can score 31goals in one epl season!!

Honestly aside from Suarez, Who?

alekside: It pains me too till now. It's hard getting that moment off my head. I wonder how we are going to cope without Suarez next season.

I hope BR would spend Barca's money() judiciously to cushion the effect of losing Suarez.

I hope so too!


But which players apart from Alexis is Liverpool going for?

Yomii: If only NFF will listen to our voice.

My brother, i support you on this but unfortunately they listen to their pockets not the voice of the Nigerian People...

bykebyke: Lwkmd....Okay ooo..

Let Cuadrado get injured and Montoya fill his boots!!

I am very cool with the words in bold that's if Cuadrado is eventually bought...

alekside: Yes, na money things o!

I want the deal to be done sharply so we can quickly bring in new additions before pre-season starts.

Ok...

I am also for Liverpool sha! But luck was not on its side last season especially since Gerrard's unfortunate fall during Chelsea's encounter...


E pain...

bykebyke: Alves na

Abeggi make dat guy dey go joor!


I hope he is returning to Spain to empty his locker quick...


--- On behalf of Bykebyke! Well done Alves for everything you have done for us... --- We appreciate...

alekside: That's true though. I can see Suarez scoring loads of goal in that Barca side.

I'm happy for him making his dream move.

Anyway, it's still £80m or Sanchez + £60m or No deal

You and money ehh...

bykebyke: Yes...I know..

But Am saying we should hold unto him till next season!!

Hold on to what?

Honestly, Barcelona is going for 6 trophies next year! Sure thing!

------ With Rakitic, Suarez n 1 or 2 solid defenders, we are good to go...

I think we need to replace Song fast with Marcherano~ ------- Song out you go...

alekside: I'd really love to see how you guys will cope with having Messi, Neymar and Suarez, players who always want the ball

It would also be interesting seeing how Suarez will cope with playing on the right side of a front three cos I can't see Barca displacing Messi from the center for Suarez. Interesting times ahead

I don't see why Suarez won't be played in his favorite position which is the Real 9 while Messi plays behind him... Simple as ABC...


If we want to see GOOAAAALLLLSSSSS... --- Suarez must play 9 or else...

dmcdad: Exactly what I feel too. At some points or the other, even legends should give way to fresh legs. As far as Chelsea is concerned, Drogba, Lampard, and Ashley Cole are club legends, but there was still need for them to give way to younger players and move ahead in life. Being a club legend isn't necessarily a yardstick to end your playing career at the club. Afterall, Raul left Madrid after giving his life for the club and vice-versa, just as Casillas would probably do this season with recent reports that Madrid wanna let him as well as Lopez to go while they bring in Keylor Navas and Kiko Casilla.

Is Alves more a club legend than Ronaldinho was?

NO - N - O!!!

toba: except if he becomes unhappy. Never say never. Vidal might want to play for a club aspiring to win the UCL and not the one that will crash out in the group or second round stage

You are right about that as it is the wish of every ambitious player but is he willing to be benched?

dmcdad: You will agree with me that at this juncture he offers not much offensively and defensively? He is close to nothing now.

Wicked...
