There is nothing you know I dont already know.

you dunno a lot.

When Madrid beat Bayern in UCL semi last season, it was only pace and power that saw them do that.

please stop highlighting isolated games. how come the same madrid were barca's bitchës for more than 3 seasons? where was madrid's pace & power when barca tonked them 5-0?

Same way Robben led Netherlands destroyed Spain.

where was netherland's pace & power at the world cup final in 2010. did robben not play that match? who offered the pace & power when cleverley & carrick mauled city at the etihad or when they destroyed chelsea @ the bridge in 2012/13?

When you have some players like Mascherano, Ronaldo, Robben and Ribery using their strength with a good all round team mate, nothing can stop them.

I don tire sef good night.

you don't need any yeye power to beat teams. barcelona & spain ruled the world for several years without power. it's about passing the ball, looking for opening & striking when the chance comes.

if it's about PAWA, cameroon should be winning the world cup every time it takes place.

elampiro:
No we played this 4-1-4-1 on some occasions and they were still poo. Although Blind played in some of the matches instead of Carrick.

when?
when rooney was in the midfield? can rooney pass the ball without going sideways to valencia? you really underestimate the work carrick, herrera and mata are doing with those quick forward passes they offer.

go and check the match stats - compare our passing accuracy to city. then check the last time any PL team dominated city the way we did. fellaini provides an option when our defence is pressed & de gea hits it directly at him.

guy, you need to start watching games with maximum concentration.

elampiro:
Remove Fellaini, Ashley Young and Valencia. United will be the worst team in the EPL.

rafael would easily replace valencia
nani would easily replace young
fellaini is irreplaceable for now - not because of any physical battle - but he's an outlet for the direct pass from de gea. his chest is better than berbatov's first touch.

patrickmuf:
You definitely know your football... What we're doing is simply overloading on the fullbacks akin to what Bayern does with Robben, Muller and lahm on the right or Ribery, Alaba and Schweini...
In Barca we see it with Neymar, Alba and Iniesta on the left and Messi, Alves and Rakitic on the right...
Even Chelsea do employ same strategy on their left side with Azpillicueta, Hazard and Fabregas/Oscar...

elampawa thinks it's just pace & power.

elampiro:
You no know ball. Why do Herrera and Carrick always useless when either or both Young and Fellaini got injured? Even when Mata featured.

because we weren't playing this system then. we weren't punishing our opponents. it's nothing to do with pawa. it's just about being smart & using the ball intelligently.

at every point on the flank, we always have our 3 players versus their 2 or our 2 players versus their 1 player. it's called an overload. simple tactical idea & it's been working pretty.

elampiro:
Young and Fellaini are very physical. I wonder what Coogar means. Valencia is offering all his pace and power to protect so much for us.

abeg, I don log out. Coogar is confused.

fellaini - 10
young - 11

they have nothing to do with the midfield battle. it's herrera & carrick in the centre of the midfield and they are not pawaful.

elampiro:
They are the champions. Remember. Another power team is leading the log.

we shall witness that pawa next weekend when ivanovic gets isolated with fellaini & young.

We have been struggling in past fixtures against these teams.

we have not struggled since the arsënal game in the cup tie & we have faced some pawaful midfielders in that time.

* Without Fellaini, we would get roasted in midfield. He adds some physicality.

fellaini is too far away from the midfield action. he's almost playing in the hole but a bit closer to young.

the tactics is simple but yet effective - we are only overloading on the fullbacks while having 3 gifted technicians in the central midfield who can pass & move the ball quickly.

that long kick from de gea had 2 of our players on zabaleta. he got outnumbered & he conceded the cross that got the first goal. check the spurs & liverpool game - it was the same ish.

this isn't about pawaful midfield - without carrick, herrera & mata(license to roam) knitting the passes from deep to evade pawaful midfielders, fellaini's physicality would be hopeless.

dopeJemi:
Chai! It was torture at the beginning of the season

Who do you think we should get in the next transfer window?

lacazette - CF
arturo vidal - CM
mats hummels - CB

keep de gea at all costs & if he insists on leaving, take a player from real madrid as part-exchange. varane, kroos or bale would be fine.

replace de gea with cech or begovic.

elampiro:
I wont be surprised if City is the team that misses out of top 4.

i can't believe my eyes....
you mean the midfield pawa of toure & fernandino might miss the top 4. which is which, really?

is pawa needed in the midfield or not?

dopeJemi:
We also have injuries to blame too, it wasn't really easy for the manager, he just couldn't sort out his first 11 due to injuries and all, I agree, they were winnable games... I'm hoping it won't repeat itself next season

he has no excuse next season.
all these people who think i like LVG would soon see i judge a manager based on the circumstance he's had to work with.

by mid-july, he should sort out all the transfer and take the squad to pre-season. the only reason chelsea are up there is the way jose conducted his transfer deals.

costa & cesc made the preseason. they all trained together, settled quickly & by the time the league started, it was bread & butter. united had lingard, blackett, etc cos LVG was still assessing his squad.

SailorXY:
honestly replying will only amount to insults, na why I throway face like say I no see nothing before them accuse me of lack of respect for elders

intelligence & wisdom should be respected. age is just a number. some 50 year-old folks are not smarter than a dessicated coconut & you would find some 12-year olds with the intelligence of albert einstein.

dopeJemi:
LVG is just great, he's an awesome manager and every tongue must confess including binghi's

the only reason we aren't up there with chelsea are those early games we dropped precious points.

burnley, sunderland, leicester, swansea. all these games were winnable games if LVG had quickly sorted the squad out instead of relying on the last minute transfer window.

https://giant.gfycat.com/FalseShockingArmadillo.gif

young's cheeky backpass to blind was heavenly. the cross was sumptuous.

dopeJemi:


Didn't wanna reply him until the end of the season, I remember vividly all that he said that day, I was so vexed but I just had to keep my cool cause I knew we were still gonna have the last laugh

he knew what he had done, that was why he quickly posted with his old username. if we had lost any of the last 5 games, the fool would be telling us how moyes should have kept his job. he cannot even bring himself to praise LVG for cleaning out 18 points in the last 6 league games.

moyes - 34 games, 57 points
LVG - 32 games, 65 points.

2 games less than moyes but 8 points more. yet, that lunatic called nyabingo thinks moyes is the better manager?

dopeJemi:
this is going to be awesome

my guns are ready.....

i had to take his stüpidity when arsënal dumped us out of the cup - but now, it's my time to piss on nyabingo's personality.....if dem born am well, let him reply me.

all of a sudden, it's his united.
his loyalty has the weight of a feather. was the fool not saying moyes was a better manager than LVG? did the plonker not claim we would never make the top 4?

and now it's his united? his united that moyes is now managing?

ElFenomeno1:
STFU.... We dont see you quoting when you get tonked.

do we see you?

kane would tonk united....
liverpool midfield would overrun united
man city are the kings of manchester derby.

how would you like to eat your vomitus? with bare hands or with a straw? elf, your self esteem is so small, it would fit in the inner pocket of my jeans.

nyabinghi:
how did I insult LVG, I only compared his results with moyes when we were losing home and away to swansea, losing to mk dons, to arsenal at home and also to some lowly placed teams. I have been a staunch united supporter for over 2 decades and I know what I want for the team.

may amadioha scatter your village for even having the temerity to post here. you are a consummate rëtard - after telling us to mark your words we wouldn't make top 4, you mean you can still have the gall to post here and be proud of united?

you quickly dumped your username for this old one to pull the wool over our eyes.....you think some of us have forgotten your idiötic remarks about 4 weeks ago. i can stand thieves, killers, drug dealers but one thing i cannot stand are hypocritical bastârds like you.

BinghiNya:
This united thread should be formatted and reloaded, junks calling themselves pundits have taken over, won gbadiye(moyes) won fowo rawo(van gaal) told them the team is sinking one idiot called coogar was posting failed stats up and down, heard he sleeps under the bridge. Has he plunged into River Thames, some secondary school boys join him to take on me but my intelligence is 50000 percent over their's. Top 4 is beyond this team coached by a misfit.
https://www.nairaland.com/871307/official-manchester-united-fan-thread/1469#31474053

BinghiNya:
These mongoloids were praising LVG that rode his luck to get to the semi of the world cup, he couldn't beat costa rica that had its best player plying then at olympiakos, he substituted krul for the ajax kEeper and fools called that a master stroke, he lost to the argies and brought the dutch from 2nd position to 3rd and they call that improvement. They heaped praises on martinez who has made everton into an unsure team beaten black and blue by almost everybody. The amount martinez spent is enough to bring everton close to top 4 but reverse is the case. united is curently 4th cos the other teams have been mediocre. It will take a miracle to make top 4 this season, LVG is finished.

BinghiNya:
Where are the LVG advocates, when he was hired they were having erections about a manager living on old glory, how much was di maria bought for, I owe nani an apology with the headless football di maria is serving united, swansea wiped united home and away: united yet to play: arsenal, chelsea, city, everton, tottenham,liverpool all tough teams , LVG is doomed.
https://www.nairaland.com/871307/official-manchester-united-fan-thread/1432#30956353

nyabingo, you are a fair-weather fan. if you cannot support the team when they were struggling, you have no right to come here & start beating your chest when they are winning. lest i forget, may amadioha scatter your teeth for trying to pull the wool over our eyes.

barawo!

if anyone yabs ashley young again on this thread, i would decapitate that person. he has been LVG's most consistent player from the preseason games to this day.

he must have studied philosophy in school.

https://giant.gfycat.com/ThisShyBoubou.gif

what a cross from young.....

https://giant.gfycat.com/ThornyUntimelyAdmiralbutterfly.gif

this is a nice reverse pass from rooney - mata was offside though. this was what rooney shoulda done in the first half when he couldn't see fellaini.

what a game!

we should start praying carrick's injury is only a knock. we need him next week to crush chelsea. nobody in the chelsea side would be able to deal with fellaini. matic would get turned apart & i am ready feeling sorry for ivanovic's lack of positional discipline.

cheiiii, mangala is coming on.

rooney should better start praying. this dude is the equivalent of tyson & an angry phil jones. we still leave holes in the defence & city might exploit us if they break.

dopeJemi:
Rooney for look e back na... Chai!

if rooney looks behind there, we get a 3rd goal. that area was too free. rooney's awareness needs work. he must know fellaini was free there.

Nihilist:
Oboi Fellaini don turn don dada

Coogar called it last season though. Credit where it's due

fellaini's chest is worth £50m alone!

the triangle of blind + fellaini + young has caused city all sorts of problem. navas & zabaleta cannot cope. it hasn't worked on the right because of that mumu valencia.

kompany should have been sent off - his reputation saved his arsë. the defenders are jittery as fùck. someone should tell jones to take it easy with his back passes.

herrera is a witch.

5 shots on target, 5 goals.
what a stat!!

unchanged team.....

jeez, loads of sweaty players in this city team.

afrodoc2:
dinho was best player in the world for 2 years and within a few years of that he was a bit part player.
his drop in form too was dramatic, but the reasons for his loss of form are well documented

what about kaka?
best in the world for 3 months and disappeared shortly after - this is why messi & ronaldo have to be worshipped.

they have been the top two in the last 7 years. no other player has been able to break their duopoly. this is why i think they are infinitely greater than any of their predecessors.

Ibime:
Una still dey argue this one? Only someone who doesn't know how to freestyle go argue. I have battled on UK formats preceding Jump-Off and Don't Flop, reaching a final of Subterranea 2000 hosted by Canibus and DJ279, and reaching quarter-final of Battle scars 2002 which was the premier UK battle competition then. Miss me with that bullshyt. The nigga who thinks RapGod was freestyled is a nigga who ain't quick with words and thinks freestylers are magicians.

this is a lie!
as at 2000, you haven't even converted your BC to get your british passport. which nonsense subterranea did you participate in 2000? reserve those lies for the darkrebels & the mikuzs of this world.

The best freestyler of Eminem era was Supernatural, followed by Juice, followed by Em. Em is like every other battler, he turns up to battle with prewrittens, and then he might include a few freestyles depending on how the opponent looks, dresses etc. The skill is in arranging your punchlines on the spot inbetween whatever your freestyling.

the best freestylers in the eminem era was otherwize or eyedea. eminem was by far better than juice in 1997. no wonder it was eminem that got a call from jim iovine after the competition.

Believe it or not, the best freestylers currently is Kid Cudi. He does what I call real freestyle, no prewrittens involved.

charron is the best freestyler in the world today. DNA & dizaster have hailed him as the best. his rebuttals are better than the writtens of most people.

dizaster himself was wack in the early days. choked in a battle against locksmith & flatlined - this was in 2009 on grindtime rap battle league. 3 years later, he became one of the best freestylers in the world. only DNA & charron are clearly above diz.

translation - freestyling isn't a talent, it's all about practising. if eminem couldn't freestyle perfectly in 97, it doesn't stop him from becoming a beast in 2013.

Darkrebel666:
~ I hate to say this ...but shut the ffuck up about that wack freestyle where stretch was throwing words at him...Totally wack and basic .. There was no complex rhyme scheme... Even Kendrick Lamar had words given to him to freestyle with on flex and he flowed awesomely unlike Eminem's shaky flow .. Eminem kept on repeating 'step to this'(That's his filler line I guess) yet on rap god he needed no filler and he flowed awesomely....rubbish!
wake up from your trance

you are starting to sound like a complete idiöt now. for someone who cannot freestyle, how did eminem go through the stretch armstrong freestyle where he even had to tell stretch to shut up and stop interrupting his flow during the test. you can never ever find anyone better than eminem in the art of rapping. this is why he's the rap god! the only rapper that has made every other rapper sounded like a fool when they feature him.

Why would I lie?..Eminem said it himself..
He said I would have written enough rhymes and punchlines then mix with a little freestyle ..hear that?

if he said he would have written enough rhymes & punchlines, then it means he didn't. is english language a challenge to you? he's regretting not writing enough rhymes & punchlines which means he had to freestyle.

Proof is a better freestylist than Em ...They weren't battling in that car so it doesn't make sense to say Em killed him. Besides Proof didn't look like he was even in the mood.... They were just catching fun..Proof killed Eminem and the entire D12 on Tim west wood and he went totally off the dome...

proof was reciting written bars - he was not following eminem's storyline. eminem was talking about how mom used to leave him at home while she goes to play bingo....proof came on and was talking about how rappers lack practise.

you dunno anything about freestyling - eminem was finishing proof's end rhymes while proof couldn't return the gesture. eminem killed him with the bar - Hold it right there/ I'm your worst nightmare/
Wiping diapers on my high chair/ - proof shouted like what?? ??

..watch Eminem say he writes lines before battles here.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-kbB35Igrw&itct=CDsQpDAYACITCN3-8_G88MQCFc-CHAod-CkAXVIZRW1pbmVtIHJlZCBidWxsIGludGVydmlldw%3D%3D&gl=NG&client=mv-google&hl=en

you are confused!
rap olympic in their days was a freestyle battle. no written - it was just bars after bars off the dome. they had to rap and reference the things around them. go & watch the competition again instead of making guesses - eminem writing for hundreds of street battles is different altogether from rap olympics.

Emaprince:
I remember Em's lil freestyle with sway on MTV(I think)..I think sway was interviewing him on how he manage to come off the top with a rebuttal in freestyle battles.he asked sway to first throw some shots at him, which sway did and Em responded immediately with same rhyme scheme. It wasn't amazing but you can tell that he's good in that aspect.

these people dunno jack, abeg......
they are just reeling out what they see on the internet without checking their facts. the only reason eminem didn't win that competition is because black people couldn't accept his white skin in 1997 & the homecourt advantage angle.

he clearly took rounds 2 & 3 and that should have sealed the victory. the crowd wanted overtime. they voted draw in rounds 4, 5 and 6........before finally deciding to give it to his opponent in round 7.

Ibime:
Eminem didn't freestyle in Rap Olympics. Almost every lyric he dropped in that competition turned up on Slim Shady LP album. They were prewrittens.

oh shut up & stop pretending you are clued up about battle rap. apart from the line - "You ain't gonna sell two copies if you press a double album", which other bar in the 4 different battles in that competition turned up in the slim shady LP?

Darkrebel666:
I don't think Ibime meant Eminem couldn't freestyle at all in rap Olympics..of course he can but it's wasn't smooth and most of his bars were fillers...

and he came 2nd?
that competition must have been filled with retärds for an unknown white boy from detroit to go to LA and beat niggaz in their art.

remember that Eminem himself said it in that Red bull interview that he wrote his battle verses then mixed with a little freestyle but most of his material were written. So Majority of his punchlines in Rap olympics was pre-written

he didn't say that - stop lying.
what he said was the so called freestyling in most battles had a bit of pre-written in it but sometimes you get in the zone, you forget what you have written and you manufacture bars in the air and whoop your opponent with it.

He also said proof was the only one in their group that could freestyle from top to bottom...Even Proof can't freestyle like you believe eminem did on rap god . cos if he was still alive, his freestyling would have been on a whole different level..

he said proof was the best freestylist in the group - that does not suggest he himself is not a beast in freestyling. the freestyle they did on MTV inside a car, eminem whopped proof hands down.

Even at that he can't throw heavily laced multies and complex rhymes or do a tongue twister off the top... or is Eminem a better freestylist than proof
Coogar ..please

he is the best in the art of polysyllables and complex rhymes. eminem has one of the best vocab pool in the rap industry & his ability to slant rhymes gives him the best flexibility. even words that shouldn't rhyme on paper would rhyme when eminem spits it. if eminem counts 1-20, he would make it rhyme perfectly.

Rap God was not freestyled... ..This is the problem with core Eminem fans..you take him as a god..if he says he doesn't piss or poo , his staunch fans would still believe...
He has already said you stans take things too literally

rap god was freestyled - the sloppiness of the lyrics suggest to me he was freestyled. lyrically, the entire track is meaningless, lacks any content or direction - but he rhymed the fück outta the joint.

eminem can't freestyle & yet he did freestyle aerobics with stretch armstrong on radio? stretch was throwing words at him every 20 seconds and eminem was destroying those words with multis & complex rhyme scheme? half of you dunno what eminem is all about.


stretch - "animal crackers"

eminem - "animal crackers is what i do when i eat MCs like a cannibal backwards"

hell yeah, eminem cannot freestyle.

bunch of mumus!

Ibime:
Anyone who thinks Rap God was freestyled needs to go for check up. The same Eminem who couldn't freestyle in rap Olympics. No time for childish arguments.

this is the most idiotic comment on this thread. rap olympics = 97, rap god = 2013. even if we agree for arguments sake that eminem couldn't freestyle in 1997, it then means he hasn't improved 16 years later?

eminem freestyled in rap olympics - he had 6 ties against juice before he was defeated in the final. if he couldn't freestyle, is ibime insinuating eminem wrote 6 different rounds for the final match? eminem saw the future and he knew 3 rounds wouldn't be enough so he wrote 6?

some of you know nada about battle rap. it's a shame that a head as big as ibime's has no logical content in it. how can a seasoned battle rapper not know how to freestyle & he came 2nd in a rap competition held faraway in LA in 1997. the only reason juice won was the homecourt advantage.

AdeLaNa1:
I'll ve to try out the game b4 i can gve my opinion abt it. The added bullet trail seems like exta effizy dat we dont really need. But if u ask me, there's no fun in sitting back and sniping an entire game wen can go all-out in BF and play as a Sniper, Tank driver etc.

it's not about sniping all through.
he has various weapons but sometimes he's called upon to take out an important nazi general from about 900 yards away.

https://i.imgur.com/B2lHUlJ.gif

just look at the trajectory of that bullet as it smashes 2 tësticles of a nazi soldier. this game is the truth. each time you snipe, you get the above in slow mo - showing how the bullet hit its target & the damage in x-ray.
