BascoVanVeli: Monle's issue was not diving. She was just generally shakey at times.
As for Faith Omilana u just reminded me something. The same goal u complained about at the African Games was scored on Chiamaka by Brazil at the Olympics. I didn't see u guys complaining about diving then.
Without Faith Omilana we don't finish 3rd at the U17 world cup. Add that to helping her club to the Federation Cup final this season. I think she has done enough to earn our trust.
We are talking of what is not an attribute despite the years in active football. Forget the "we didn't complain" part cos as far as we are watching, it will be raised. We even complained about Chiamaka weight. Nobody is doing favouritism here. We did complain @ bolded.
Fine, you noticed she was shaky. I noticed both were lazy at diving. 3years is enough time to have upgraded all these lapses. If they haven't, then wahala dey. Till then, goodluck to them. But with Falcons in sight, we need that attribute
But TBH, the way Lookman just blow dey surprising. This is someone who wasn't even hot laidat before his move to Atalanta
That's why. Normally person go check if na fluke but he's not just consistent but also their top performer till yesternight, playing that way vs Madrid. His link up and movement and flair, unpredictability all join.... I'll take him if chance dey. Personal bias-i want a Super Eagles player in Arsenal. Since Iwobi, none!!
BascoVanVeli: Idoko might be ready right now with the season she just had in Portugal.
Years ago u guys kept complaining about that girl but it ended up being Demehin who cost us the game against Netherlands. She was at fault for both goals.
So far in this tournament we don't know anything about Oyono's diving since Edo has not given away chances. Hopefully she steps up when called upon.
I recall we called out everyone's error but before that loss, we've been noticing her being lazy to dive to make saves. She and Omilana sabi gather ball(they still are experts at it. It's obvious in the highlights clip).
But that diving to make saves was too obvious for both that year and during the Ghana tourney as well(Omilana)
They need to thoroughly work on that cos time has really passed to not be any noticeable improvement on that aspect till now. That's why i asked.
Demehin is still error prone and nobody is ignoring that. But these 2 goalies, they need to improve if they haven't cos we all know soon, na Falcons invite go start and we don't need them to start such basic detail in the senior team.
Me no go mind Ademola Lookman o. Did watch his game vs Madrid? Martinelli can NEVER. Just that Trossard and Jesus dey already. But I'll prefer he benches them sef🥱🥱🥱
Jodera: Lol, according to the bolded, who do you have in mind?? Cos e be like say that list toff
I dey look ex Man City player, I no know who fit fill the bill sef. Except maybe Gundogan
Omorr, I'm just waiting Sha, even the Merino own just they shake anyhow
Na 4 options o. Not 4in1. Lol. E go hard.
I had to add that city own cos i know that man well.😆 Merino na normal deal. Though still stalling. And then, there's me and my former stance of not expecting any signing again.
Jodera: Lol... The last time anybody said such a word was Wenger in the summer of 2013 and by end of Tw we got Ozil. Everyone knows we're expecting Merino so I don't think that's the expectation he meant.
Let's be patient Sha, you fit see person wey go make you shock
In terms of departures, I'm not even expecting Fabio to leave. Some part of me still believes Arteta still sees something in him that I don't know of
That bigger must either be
A top Euros performer A player from the AFCON final A player that played a UEFA final and was instrumental to their reaching/winning that final
And for the man city bias, i need to add this- an ex city legend that is still playing but might want to return to EPL
Shegzdave: Now I understand you😄👍 But I feel if the team own is achieved, then individual awards will follow especially if we win the EPL and Maybe CL😉
Fact is even if this is the aim-spreading goals across players, its high time we start having that one player that leads everything else by far in GA and 25 should be the EPL least. We need that sure banker fear factor from that lone figure upfront.
I dunno why i feel like he wants departures before he does this. Meaning it is conditional. I don't like that.
Besides, what if we are expecting bigger and na Merino be their Bigger😂😂😂
Sha expect Fabio to leave las las. I'm sensing it. Not now, but consequently. Esp of no playing time. But i really want to see what Ethan does. I set a 10goal in all comps for him(wrt playing time anyway) 😂
Anything to make Saka start scoring with head is welcome for me.
As for Nketiah, I don't care again. I'll rather care where Rams will go. This Ajax interest, i pray it is fruitful. Karl Hein is on loan to Valladolid finally.
One more arrival(big please) before we resume, Edu. Abegggggg.
mostob: Yea... Though I still think Arsenal would have agreed to 25m if not for the 'insultive' bid tabled by Marseille. The initial deal was for 30m to which Marseille agreed only for them to table 17m.
mostob: If Arsenal had agreed to 25m, there would have been backlash especially on this thread. We still debated on letting our players go for peanut few days ago na.
Normal. But seeing a bigger deal now is way far than this 25m.
