Match highlights


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHLXE9uv_OI

looks like Dessers and Iwobi are made for each other. A Muller-Lewandoski kinda partnership.

They should be paired going forward. That's the biggest positive i saw from this highlight. Peseiro also have a job on this middle. The Mexican wingers barely had time to dribble. Just midfield spotting run ins and positioning that can hurt. If we can get something like that instead of wingers dancing always with no end product, it would help. Happy to see Iwobi back.

We don't need a Salah. We should just have a player like Mane in sE

Is that too much to ask?

As Roland don tokam am, i agree that if this Saliba situation didn't exist, we would probably be blaming 100% all the players that had a fallout with Arteta.


Arteta messed up big time. Saliba does not deserve such from him. Too poor. An sms would be great. He suddenly wants to reap? Naaah. He needs tutorials on handling players well. Perhaps a class with Freddie would help.

Spy360:
Remove Bissouma and Gabriel Jesus. Add another striker with the money. We are fine. Though I can't say how good Hickey is but if he is a good LB it's ok.

Hickey is the most assured of coming right now.

Maybe those two won't come Sha. Especially as Ucl clubs want Bissouma. We kinda need the urgency Osimhen will bring. A link up with Partey is going to be absolutely stunning.

Shegzdave:
Same Gnabry of Bayern Munich?

Lol. Year. If they wait one more year, na free transfer o. Na to accept the cash like that. Its going to be more about Loyalty than European level rn.

.
Brighton is quoting 50M for Bissouma.
Leicester want 35M for Tielemans
Gnarby is more of his salary.
Gabriel too salary plus he wants CL
I know Aour price has reduced but u think they will sell for 13?
I know too little of the other to comment.
The thing is if we give assurance to these player then we have to wait for next season transfer window to buy them for cheap.
The fans can't wait.

Actually these are their current tags. Anyone bigger than this is cos of chop chop and observation of desperation by potential buyers. I even hear Lyon wan Tielemanns. Meaning Aouar is replaced.

£13M for Aouar
£25M for Tielemans
£30M for Bissouma
£50M for Jesus
£25M for Hickey
£35M for Gnabry

Total spend : 178M

Nketiah extension
Elneny extension
Saliba returns.

Is this possible?

Jodera:
Well, the 6.5 you gave is still very fair.

It was just the last 13games you said he wasn't solid enough that I was just surprised, nothing more.

Noticed his saves dropped drastically. That's why. Then errors climbed. Dunno why.

Jodera:
Ramsdale poor in the last 13 games?? I never knew oo
Wow!!..

Nice ratings for the rest

never gave a 7.0 to me.

.
Mancity don win league be that.
Haaland and cucurella has made that team complete

Till further notice, the top 6 is now divided into two

Title Contenders-Liverpool and Man City

Outsiders-Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham, Man U/Extra team.

I don't think any of Outsiders can break ranks as it seems.

Day 2 of the post-season:

Gabriel Jesus
Youri Tielemans
Dominic Calvert Lewin
Cody Gakpo
Richarlison
Adam Hlozek
Aaron Hickey
Victor Osihmen
Tammy Abraham
Gianluca Scamacca


Hlozek na baller men. Watch him. That physicality fits EPL.

Make we no Sha dey linked to an entire squad figure before we sign one o. Cucurella to Man City almost done deal. Mehnnn.

mostob:
Person dey bear SCAMacca, you still want us to sign him

I just dey imagine Ode shouting in training scam.. scam.. close him down....

Guy is good o. Only the name go sweet to use for bant if he goes the Pepe way

mostob:
Well, apart from quality wise, I just want him to move on but if he is still here by next season, no qualms.

For Xhaka to go, the incoming must perform and bench him as a result. Xhaka is XI starter anyday. If incoming can't do that, he'll be here till further notice. Lol.

mostob:
well, I wouldn't write that off.... Klopp is too playful though his age no go let him do some things sha....

Playful. He's too serious o. He's feared in dressing room

50d33q:
These people are finally mad

Lol. Hearing Juve stories with Vlahovic. Looks hilarious to read.

Blueelf:
Bro, at this point, should you still be mentioning Akpeyi or Ezenwa?

Why can't you people learn or no be the same National team we dey watch?

Chai ..I tire for una

Spy360:
Lacazette hasn't scored from open play since December, 2021. If not that he had competition with Nketiah which Arteta was lucky to uncover after several calls and advise from me it would have been a disaster for us. That was the mistake Wenger had not that Giroud was bad. He had no competition and for any player that's not healthy.

Be like dem curse Arsenal with French Strikers o. Else why French french since Igwe times?

We should stop getting them to me. I hear Sassuolo's Scamacca is up on radar too.

mostob:
Omo...if we manage to get Tieleman, we should just use Xhaka for swapping deal...I'm tired of this guy.

Xhaka will stay and I want him to stay but get competition. We need senior figures in this team. We should stop making that error Wenger affirmed her made regarding no senior player that the young ones look up to. Chelsea, Man U and Liverpool have always realized the need for such. Captaincy to Odegaard is not absolute leadership imo. But it is what it is.


Update: Osimhen Agent in London with Arsenal for talks. AC Milan to rival for him


Hmmm

Behold the first transfer target. He is eager to play Europa. Since UCL plans fell through, so do all prospective targets. So fresh targeting .


Yay or Nay?

mostob:
With only pant

I doubt Klopp can do that if he won.

comodo:
Pls age detectors in the house. How young is this Flying Eagles player? This one be as it get.

Definitely not u20. Probably u30

Danielnino00:
The bolded is absolutely not true... Nigerian fans will issue threats online,but how many of such threats have ever been carried out? You are trying to imply that Nigeria has the most fanatical set of football fans in the world..how??
Uzoho and Okoye simply can't deal with the presume they are facing at the moment and that's understandable..Not everybody has a tough mentality...
Akpeyi got a lot of sticks from fans after the 2019 AFCON, but he didn't quit... Ighalo got his own share of insults after the world cup,but came back to win the fans over with his performance at the AFCONQ and tournament proper... Players like Musa and Shehu have been getting the stick from fans since forever and they are still here..

I'm not condoning what the fans did to Uzoho and Maduka, but they should understand that it's work hazard..it's all part of the game... Their pulling out won't matter much cus they can easily be replaced...

Daniel, hope you know Akpeyi still get threats for that 2019 goal? Now imagine the messages those two will get? Are you trying to deflect that Nigerian Fans aren't fanatical in nature? Just club football alone, they kill over that.


Like a wavelength thing, fans are a mix of both: fanatical and most loving and supportive. Remember the way they chanted for Iwobi and Osaze? For these two to want to pause, then death threats are real and nobody can guarantee safety right now so safe way out.

JohnBullMySon:
You can't even compare the level of support and love Saka, Rashford and Sancho got, to the criticism they got. the English FA and government even came out to caution fans against insult and slurs.

What has NFF done for these players? What have they done to prevent all these? Even in the NFF you still find people criticizing the players.

Exactly.


Nff hasn't done anything.

Big names in sport influence have not done anything to rally support and campaign for show of love in a way. Just to tell Nigerians to desist from such actions next time. Accumulated pain and frustration in arrears is still hanging over the SE brand then this new one again. Both sides have a case but never should we go the Escobar way. Nff should do something. These guys are not safe to walk cos if they are seen in public lasan, big wahala if angry fans spot them. I'm sure the threats have gone that far.
Right now, winning Afcon may change all these furore.

jihday:
According to owngoal, both Okoye and Uzoho have told the NFF they want to be left out of future SE games. Till further notice

Over to Sebastien Osigwe or Akpeyi and Ezenwa. Either way, Ike Shorunmu is now having a bigger job of finding the new Vincent Enyeama. I wish him all the best. If he mess up he go colet.

Pep Guardiola: A Cruise Champion

I think the players made a bet with him that if he wins the league title, he'll strip and slide on the wet floor in the dressing room.

I saw the clip, baba slide like pikin

TheGoodJoe:
Amazing point.

Komekn no go like this one o

Schemerkhiz:
