dayokanu: Bayern is stil one of the top clubs that develop youngsters in Europe you still havent told us how many top teams have more than 6 home grown players in their team.
they should be - they are the only team of note in the bundesliga historically....every kid wants to play in bayern - they are the most successful club in germany so the guy is correct that bayern bully the other german clubs.

And your post Man Utd bought Smalling Jones Carrick, Valencia, Young, Rooney RVP are they trying to weaken their weak opponents? I wont even ask about City and Chelsea
count one by one....

fletcher
evans
cleverley
scholes
giggs
welbeck

Pls also educate us on teams that can financially wrestle players against Man City in EPL or How many EPL teams have taken players away from Man Utd(Iam sure you would say Arsenal took Sylvestre LOL)
there are more "big" teams in the premier league than the bundesliga.
if a young talent gets discovered(e.g zaha), 4-5 big premier league teams would fight for his signature. you cannot really say the same with bundesliga. who else can compete with bayern in the german market? hamburg or schalke?

chamotex: Worst player on the pitch?
Maybe you didn't see Rooney on the pitch. Atrocious performance by Rooney, we played with 10 men for most parts.
rooney was pure wänk but valencia has been shyte throughout the season.....
it's now obvious rafael has been bailing him out, dragging valencia's marker away to create the space for valencia. i cannot remember the last time valencia skinned his marker one on one - he's so retardêd! at the moment, he's not united quality at all and he has been figured out! everyone of us here would defend against valencia - just show him to his left foot and he's clueless!

wayne rooney today was another story - like i have always mentioned, rooney's bottom level is the worst of all the professional football players you can ever see. basic stuff like passing the ball, ball control and first touch become calculus to him. with him in space and hernandez in the centre, rooney had the simple task of passing the ball to hernandez from 6 yards........and he fücked it up! i hope fergie takes his shotgun to the dressing room. we just pissed 2 points away.

special mention to angel michael today - he bossed the midfield with the most incisive vertical passes you would see in the league this season. cleverley, evans, young, evra, de gea and vidic also did very well. others were just off the boil! valencia should pack his bags and leave man utd. he's too inferior for what we require from a right back. even bebe would have done better on the day!

chinua achebe!

he literally shot himself in the foot with his latest book by concocting all manners of lies to pollute the minds of the ndigbos. in a developed country, he would be culled to explain some of the things he wrote in the book. i have finished the book and to think i paid top dollar to buy this book of lies breaks my heart. until now, achebe was one of the few nigerians i have maximum respect for in the way he has always carried himself

dayokanu: Martinez joined after the Bundesliga has started
bundesliga kicked off on the 24th of august, martinez got his debut on the 2nd of september(game week 2) - martinez only missed one game before his arrival. he has started only 8 league games in the 16 available - for a player that is currently the most expensive signing in the history of the german league, it's a disgrace to bayern munich and javier martinez himself - record signings should be starting every league game debarring injury/suspension. grin

He has played 15 games started 8 already in a new league, new team only a tool would be expecting him to jump into an established team.
what's the meaning of new league and new team for the most expensive player in the history of german football? if he's so wet behind the ears, why did bayern pay so much for a player who does not add anything to what they have got already?

He also started 5 CL games So whats expected of a new player?
so he's only signed to play in europe and not in the league? is that what €40m buys you these days? what a waste of money!!!

At the moment Martinez is doing well so far and growing into his new role
martinez is not doing well so far - he has not done anything yet.......record signings don't start only half of the league games available - it makes no economic sense to fork such amount to sign a player and stick him on the bench 50% of the time even when he's fit!

martinez has not added 1% improvement to the squad and like you have said......you don't expect him to jump into an "established" team. it then means you also agree martinez(bundesliga's most expensive) is not significantly better than gustavo. grin

see how i destroyed your argument tactically with deductive reasoning.....i am book smart and street smart......while you just look smart!

dayokanu: Javi Martinez has already acclimatized and he isnt giving Spanish excuses like your favourite dud.
he has already acclimatised? 8 starts in 17 league games? €40m??
chygrnsky added more value to barcelona than martinez is doing for bayern

The nigga is even scared to put his money where his mouth his $100 wager Bayern eliminates Arsenal over 2 legs if you believe the oppycocks you are chatting pitch in
And that includes Debo, Roland or anyone e sure for
$100 Bayern wins Arsenal
stop brain-farting!
i need to see the players available for arsenal in febuary before staking. i am a man of tact n precision and i don't just throw my money in the furnace. like i have said earlier, bayern have more squad depth. bayern can lose 7 key players and still line up a strong team - arsenal cannot afford such luxury! however, arsenal's strongest possible team would give bayern a run for their money so relax......feb is still 8 weeks away!

pompori king: Grow up and stop complaining..we have taken all the so called stars everytime and failed miserably.keshi is the coach not you guys.
this is the most idiotic comment ever.......
people like you are the reasons the country won't be moving forward anytime soon - i can bet when it gets pear-shaped and nigeria gets knocked out, you would quickly change your stance and start asking for keshi's head.

even a goat knows there's no balance in the squad keshi is taking to the competition. he needs more midfielders than strikers. the maximum number of strikers keshi needs shouldn't be more than 5 - why is it that common sense evades indigenous coaches in nigeria?

there's no point watching this - nigeria have failed even before the competiton is kicking off. if keshi cannot get it right with simple task such as squad selection then how would he apply tactical nous during the competition. nigeria is such a joke! useless sports ministry, idiotic coach, and brainless fawners like yourself!

Roland17: What an excuse for a young player, i guess he was the youngest player in the league to have made a start, the league was tougher than he anticipated, he reckoned his playing chances with the National team would fizzle into the air, playing outside Germany with such demanding and physical league where competition is real, going back to Germany was the only option left.
buhahahahaha
boateng knew his chances of playing week in week out was slim so he went to an inferior league. every one of us here would get signed in a german club as a defender........javi martinez is a different case entirely though! he's the only €40m player who has only 8 league starts with half of the season gone and he's not injured. the excuses have been rolling out - he's tired, he's not acclimatised, he cannot learn the language, he misses spanish dishes, etc.

Ibime: This is a different debate to the ones who told us he is slow. You mean he is not agile enough to turn quickly but same goes for every player his size. Yaya Toure is another one who has tremendous speed but is inert in turning because of his body size
now, you get the drift of my argument!
i never said he's slow when attacking the ball but with 2 darting players - martinez would have no player to man-mark. cazorla is such a mobile player who would pop up here and there and wilshere is not far behind. martinez without the ball is stiff!

dayokanu: Coogar Would you be bold enough to put a $100 wager on Arsenal winning over 2 legs? I am staking $100 on Bayern winning in 2 legs
Anyone else can also take the challenge.
i would have to see arsenal's travelling squad to enter into that bet! bayern obviously have the better squad depth but i don't think bayern's first xi are significantly better than arsenal's if everyone is fit like you guys are painting it here.

dayokanu: Boateng a young player in a new league played 24 games for Mega rich City before he copped an injury.
24 games? how many league games did he start? cheesy

dayokanu: Its also in England that erstwhile mediocre players turn to sudden superstars e tu Demba Ba, Berbatov, Santa Cruz etc
this coming from you is a bit rich - whose "reject" was boateng before becoming a cult hero in bundesliga? sip some water before answering this question.... grin

debosky: I don't know why people are taking up space on this thread with inane debates about who will dominate who and so on.
Let there be talk about how Bayern's team is 3000% better than Arsenal's till human life is discovered orbiting Alpha Centauri; there is only one thing that is relevant - Arsenal will knock Bayern out of the UCL. cool
i agree with you here....
arsenal have nothing to worry about at all - i just hope kosverm would be fit for that game! i don't trust per against bayern attack....per is a fücking lightweight!

dayokanu: What does Bate result have to do with Bayern vs Arsenal? As a start Arsenal and Bayern playing opposite football one is possesion based one is counter attacking
it's a reference that free moving midfielders are a problem to martinez!

The same Martinez who shat on the Man Utd midfield
that's a big lie - martinez played no part in united loss to bilbao.....goals were scored in both legs. united's goalkeeper and the dodgy defence was the achilles' heel! stop apportioning fraudulent credits to players who don't deserve them

Maybe we can tell that Xavi and Iniesta would be flops vs Madrid because they failed vs Celtic
hahahaha
so martinez is now xavi/iniesta - your analogies have a way of making you look idiotic!

Ibime: When Javi Martinez first came out, before he started sitting deep and playing tika taka, one of the first things I remember about him is that he used to like running through players with pure acceleration much like Kaka and Stevie G.

The way a player plays may make him look slow. For example many gooners don't know that Dennis Bergkamp was the second fastest player at Arsenal circa 2001 according to official stats, simply because he was a player that preferred receiving the ball to feet.
that is when he has the ball - how does he fare when he's not with the ball? wilshere/cazorla are not the carrick/obi/mulumbu type.....they would be pulling their marker all over the place with sharp movements and sheer artistry. all you need to see is the cleverley vs toure battles. each time cleverley has faced toure, yaya toure bit the dust!

dayokanu: What do you expect from Arsenal fans if not daily goofs. wait till Pataki and Debo add theirs to it and to think that these are the most knowledgeable Arsenal fans on Nairaland. Can you imagine someone saying Martinez is slow when one of his major strenght is his pace.

http://community.manutd.com/forums/t/233531.aspx
dayokanu has come again with his illogical approach of analysing issues.
pace with the ball and pace without the ball are 2 different things. some players are pacy with the ball in their possession and clueless positionally to recover lost possession. all i know is martinez would be annihilated around 2 pass-n-move midfielders like wilshere n cazorla.

dayokanu: Cazorla start ahead of Kroos only on your play station. Whenever Cazorla controls a game of the magnitude of Bayern vs Madrid or Bayern vs Dortmund lets have this discussion
that would be the same cazorla that won the most man of the match awards in la liga last season(bar messi and ronaldo). the same santi that provided 84 key passes last season.....dayo, it's official - words fall from your mouth like shyte from arse.

Vermalaen Kolscieny? The same toad that get benched by Per freaking Mertersacker? You must be Basket mouth in disguise
benched by who? so when a player gets injured, it's because he's not good enough? another epidermic of christmas madness!

Ibime: I don't know who told the guy above that Javi Martinez is slow. That's what you get reading all your football on google. Javi Martinez is quicker than 80% of the Arsenal team.
the same javi martinez hleb ran rings around barely 2 months ago?
some of these nairaland tools just speak absent common sense. martinez is only potent when he's up against role-players not the free moving ones who would pull him apart by occupying various positions on the pitch. cazorla/wilshere would destroy martinez.....i need people to bookmark this comment of mine for posterity sake, please!!!!

dayokanu: Boateng Badstuber are super regulars at Bayern when fit and they havent missed a min. Before Gustavos injury he was playing as well

Players who wont make Arsenals bench? I tell you categorically NO Arsenal player would make Bayern first 11.
german clubs have never had the best breed of centre-halves historically so any tool can defend for bayern munich. the strength of bayern has always been their goalkeepers, midfielders and their attack. badstuber/boateng are not top premier league quality......

no arsenal player would make bayern xi? you mean cazorla will not start ahead of kroos? vermaelen and koscielny will not bench the zombies you have in your central defence? please, stop making me laugh!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: The Red & White Army: 2025/2026 EPL Champions! by coogar: 6:33pm On Dec 22, 2012
dayokanu: And the injury excuse wouldnt cut it cos Bayern would be without 2 key defenders for the game Badstuber and Boateng probably a midfielder would pair Dante in Central defence.

Robben and Gustavo are also long term injury doubts

With or without injuries I see a Bayern aggregate win with 2 goals and above
badstuber, boateng and gustavo are peripheral players.....they are akin to djourou, coquelin and metresacker......robben would be a massive miss but then you have shaqiri as a competent deputy.

@ arsenal, they would need koscielny/vermaelen axis in the defence....they must also have a fit diaby to combat bayern! arshavin, santos, chamakh, coquelin and ramsey won't be missed! so compare like for like for once and don't just mention deadbeat players who wouldn't make arsenal reserve team! who is badstuber in the comity of brilliant defenders?

dayokanu: What does Celtic win over 40yrs ago have to do with the quality of their team currently? What does Notthingham Forest being 2 time Champion mean if they play Chelsea?
it's called technical know-how!
this is why celtic are in the 2nd round and man city built with £1billion picked only 3 points from a possible 18 points.

The Celtic beating Barca was it a dead rubber game? Or Basel beating man Utd dead rubber?
what has this gotta do with anything? fc bate beating bayern is a global disgrace......celtic have european pedigree, fc bate do not have such to step to bayern and yet bayern's martinez was disgraced by hleb!

Fact is Arsenal doesnt have any ammunition to stop Bayern. Let both teams have their best display and I see a home and away drubbing. Arsenal 1 bayern 3 in Emirates, Bayern 4 Arsenal 1 in Munich

Arsenal lost 2 games and were second in their group in case you have amnesia
there's no shame in barca losing to celtic....celtic have a rich tradition in europe, they have won the treble way before barcelona or man utd. please, tell me what fc bate have won historically to have beaten bayern bluish blackish way back in october when the match wasn't a dead rubber game? guess who murdered bayern midfield on the night? alexander hleb(the ex arsenal man) - once again, bayern cannot cope with free-moving midfielders.....martinez would be obliterated again and again if wilshere/carzola are available on that night!

Pass and move? You are still stuck 4yrs ago. Bayern completes more passes and possesion more than Arsenal and are only second in the whole of EUrope behind Barcelona

It makes it worse that this current Arsenal team cant even bunker like Chelsea did

I pity everyone in Arsenal. Gibbs vs Robben, Sagna vs Ribery, Gomez vs Mertersacker, Lahm vs Poldi, Schweini-Martinez vs Wishere-Cazorla, Kroos vs Arteta?

This is hopeless
podolski would annihilate lahm - abeg, phillip lahm is shyte! wilshere/cazorla should also ace the midfield battle. schweini/martinez would have nothing to man-mark and this is where i really fear for bayern.......the arsenal midgets would use their movements to cause chaos for bayern. if arsenal can have their key players fit for the 2 legs, it would be easy money to bet on arsenal. 1-1 in munich, 2-1(arsenal win) @ the emirates!

While Poldi, Gervinho and Giroud are too lame to cause any worries
that was what people said when arsenal drew madrid in 05/06.
the form on the day is the determinant. how do we even know the players you have listed won't be crocked in febuary? bayern would be very vulnerable to arsenal's pass-n-move tactics. i pity toni kroos!
