Shebi una dey see? Abeg just Bude ball throwaway, stop trying to build from the back.
Arteta instructions. If he was a regular he for dey bude like Rams dey do many times. Lol. 😂😂😂

Very risky and scary passes. Viera has been impressive so far. But Zinny has the upper hand for middle play this half.

What a first half. Roland is right about Turner's shakiness. The goal isn't his fault really. But those scary passes are his. Arteta hasn't played this guy since January. Rusty definitely. This Sporting are embittered. Lol. Asif Arsenal steal their kulikuli 😆

I think we should take advantage of the Nelson wing. Guy has pace to do stuff. Xhaka is however not working well with him there. Zinny should be careful. I don't like those giveaways atall. Our middle play has Zinny there, but Odegaard is missing truly. Jorg is doing well, but i haven't seen him connect with Nelson yet. I need to see that. Coates be like Pepe.


Nelli card is rubbish. Var should be assisting with that. Smh. I hope we take advantage of that loop at Nelson wing. Its a free wing. Sadly, this is a kind of Nketiah match, but he no dey.

I love the lineup, good to see Nelson/ Kiwor get starts while Partey/ Gabu get some needed rest on the bench....But na that Turner own dey do me somehow. Turner has not impressed me and is mistake prone. I hope Saliba/ White/ Zinny can show good leadership from that position, otherwise Turner fit sabotage us. I also hope to see a better performance from Vieira, man was poor over the weekend.
Viera dey fear me pass Turner. What's the situation around Leno at Fulham sef?

Arteta should allow Nelson and Tierney get minutes. Infact they should work on Tierney to a good level. I miss his left footed shots at goal. The exact spot Nelson stood is just where Tierney used to stay and volley hot shots at goal. We need to get used to resting key players. I don't want a time that what happened to GJ becomes the norm to 4 or 5 key players when we are back to UCL football. We need look ahead.


Give these guys minutes. It's more beneficial to everyone than detrimental.

When that time comes, we'll surely see how far.

But one thing is certain, Zinny will start that match except being injured or suspended
I dunno Arteta's man marking plans for Salah. I dunno his style for fullbacks marking, but we'll need one for Salah. Those guys are lethal on counter attack and we have conceded more goals from it than even setpieces this season.

Tomi should play abeg... Zinny can come in later.
I dunno if his poor performance vs Bournemouth will impact Arteta's decision vs Liverpool though. But one thing is certain-i want him to score a goal this month.

Laziness
Fatigue
Indiscipline

These made Liverpool triumph with the scoreline. I doubt it will be that easy when they play us. But Salah vs Zinny/Tomi? I can't say I'm comfy. This is the Salah i know. But we would have possession. We just need to utilize the ball faster.

But Nelson didn’t replace Viera na.
I meant impact down that left wing. Viera no be am. Workrate esp. Xhaka settled it. Now, at the end of it all, we have to start looking for a Xhaka-esque player in the market.😎👏🏾

Are we ready to tear the streets when we win this title? We need to start believing far above this "na top 4 be the target" mentality.

This was a mentality test.

Almost slipped through but we held on.

Nelson is the only forward player that scored today. The rest were non forwards. Odegaard and Saka today though.


Impressive step up by White. Really Impressive. We didn't deserve this win after that 2nd goal. A draw was all we needed. But 5points. Elephant 🐘 dey dance eo

Roland17:
Nelson has impressed me since he came on
I knew he will be more an impact than Viera. Viera doesn't deserve to be a starter for me going forward. That wing lacked any impact till Nelson came on. I'm sure the kid will now have more belief of scoring important goals going forward. When all hope of 3 points was lost, Nelson volleyed through.

Yusuf should have done his homework before inviting players 🤦🏿
i doubt these coaches are not aware. Infact he and Bosso are legends of the system and i see them more as "managers of the cheating realm" cos they'll understand how to go about such secrecy and do whatever it takes.


Are they in the dark about this? Highly impossible!! Enablers of the system. Before someone will come to say we are talking down on them.

Odegaard have I e annoying disadvantage
He can't cover his ball
Some aspects of his game has never improved. Annoying. Especially that stamina part. Partey should not be the only player with stamina in the middle. I hate we have two players that can easily be bullied when things get physical.

After all his shakara so he has decided to represent Nigeria? But his addition will be big competition for Ekong & Balogun. I love it. What of Eze na? I thought someone said he too was changing his mind on England?

Blunt Attack
Unskilled Wingers
Porous midfield
Poor decision making
Decent Defense
Ok Goalkeeper
Coach Ladan Bosso has a lot of work to do..
Hopefully Daniel Daga will be fit for the semi final
Good luck to Nigeria and a Hearty congratulations

I don't expect much from them. Majorly cos of their coach. That appointment stinks of Galadima and co days of Nff.

This 9ja U20 is so terrible and for them to qualify for the WC shows the mediocrity level of the competition
No ball holder
Football sense is close to zero
Decision making is abysmal
Nothing exciting about the team
No individual talent
Coaching input is little or nothing

Congrats to the worse U20 team i have seen in recent times
Recycling coaches is just bad

Nff are a big big retrogression to this team. See that foolish anonymous nff official's statement about Randy leaving his Uni job to fully concentrate on SF. Doesn't that alone shows how backwards these guys reason? Regardless, Randy should get out. Damage has been done already but far worse will be he staying till that June date. That will collapse the team and all these rubbish talk of building team.

This is why I said March is a more important than April. If we take care of March, we go into April with a strong mentality and good confidence.

For me, it has always been one game at a time and the next is Bournemouth which I expect a W, no excuses.
i remember you saying this truly. We Marching on.
