The way they have been screaming Nwakali's name on this thread, i can't help but wonder if it's the same nwakali that plays for Huesca or another nwakali..

Some of you guys stan nonsense. I am thinking these useless footballers from God forsaken leagues actually pays some of you mofos to come here and spew trash.

O bob we are talking about super freaking eagles and not Raggae boys of Jamaica or Gilbratar football national team. Smh..
Coachito talks highly of him. So there is high chance he'll be in the team. We just don't know who will be sacrificed. That's all. We are talking about him cos coach talked about him.

Same way we all will do U-turn about a player we don't rate if Mou or Klopp talks about such player all of a sudden.

Football world eh....

ahnahn, what’s the relationship between posting memes and carrying ashewo? Osimhen is just catching fun and trying to make himself and followers happy don’t think that’sa bad thing
Any Nigerian will easily understand Osimhen's post. Any naija celeb will post like that and will get a million engagements. But his European fans can't even understand him, sincerely.


It doesn't have to be bad. Its what's at stake here that should be considered. He needs to carry them along and probably cut less on the street boi levels. He's more than a naija star. He's a world star already. Adjustment is required.


We his Nigerian fans will always understand this.

While most African teams have one or two games during the international break, European countries mostly play 3... Even in South America,it's 3... But we don't hear them complaining..
They wanted to create a super league and turn players to robots...

In my opinion, CAF should just shift the AFCON to a 4 years tournament..make everybody rest...
For all i care, CAF should never bend to any nonsense talk from these Europeans talking. We maintain our two year window. If its African that have 2-3 national tourneys in such a window, im sure none of them will want to buy any African again. They'll turn redder than blood.


More respect should be added to continental main tourneys IMO. It will cut down these disrespect.

Ok Rorh we hope nff makes necessary adjustments wink
Factors like the rotation of home stadiums played a role in that loss and concentration. The fall back is on leadership. I never liked the rotation. Rohr comes absolved for second quote to me. Yeye lagos pitch and stadium.

Plus family and friends, parties.

Uyo was far and concentration could have been high.

Ramsdale is absolutely overhyped. Everything he's doing now, Leno did and more.
But media are rating him as the second coming of Van Der Saar.
He's not Overhyped, but Leno has done most of what he's doing. He's better than Leno in his organizing defence and shouts and ginger which is yielding results we all can see. Leno can't do that. Besides Leno was too yielding to the yeye play from the back system imposedby Arteta. Ramsdale is choosing when to use that at will, no matter what Arteta wants. Thats balls.


If Leno is 2.0 version, Rams is 2.3 version.

Iwobi just destroyed a perfect counter attack by refusing to play a simple pass to Doucoure to set up a one-on-one. He had at least five seconds to pick the pass and still messed it up.

I still think Aribo is a better passer than Iwobi, and Aribo should be tried as a 10 in place of Iwobi with Onyeka and Ndidi behind him.
This has Happening to


Benardo Silva

David Silva

Neymar

Kdb

Jorginho


Partey


Townsend

Di Maria


Should i go on?



But not like his indecision isn't there to be dealt with.

Arteta needs to do something to his backline regarding this loss of concentration around the 55:00 to 75:30. I've noticed its a back to back pattern full of errors and lack of concentration, and it leads to goals conceeded.


Anyways, who noticed Xhaka was more involved in central attack than the usual LM role he is used to?


That red card was more of his words at Taylor than cos of the tackle.


So two former Arsenal goalkeepers saved pks against our two strikers


Martinez vs Auba
Fabianski vs Laca

Nice.

Laca looks and acts more captainy than Odegaard.

Who noticed that Odegaard was so pissed at the substitution that the camera caught him not celebrating ESR's goal. He just looked on sadly. I pray he becomes more consistent. But captaincy? Naahhh.

The shots at goal are increasing. One can't but notice.

Short term contracts gives the advantage to the players not club. Clubs generally prefer long term.
Arsenal may need that to repeat till non academy buys are not eager to leave. They mostly feel like mercs. Thus my take. I may be wrong sha.

Coincidentally, viera was the last captain to carry the epl for us
Which is Even scarier.

The club needs do better. Its not in a position to get sensible loyal guys currently. SHORT term contracts, with players being the one eager to extend may be the way. It will curb this nonsense entitlement of players thinking they are doing the club a favor.

Ya asking again? Even without the article, its like something every coach in arsenal should expect.


The fans insatiable curve is higher than the loyalty the players are showing, even in sincerity. Which falls back to the owners. If they at least somewhere back in top 4, and with a Coach and valuable players that are in the mould of Sanchez, Santi, RVP, then things will balance out.


Arsenal needs feel like home again. Notice most of the curse coincided with needing to depart the club. I think most don't feel its home due to lots of factors. Pro or not,a footballer need it.


But the club is on a long thing, both back and forth.


Vierra is last captain before curse start.

To many theories here and there. I don taya for the whole mata.


But could this have been handled a better way? Yes?


Could he have been offloaded without noise like Wojiech that year? Yeah


Is this how Arteta wants to keep doing things? Probably.


Like a repeat of Yaya vs Pep.

Too inevitable.


Much hilarious if Odegaard is new captain. Gabriel would have been a better choice, unless he refused respectfully.


I hate that noise that's not sweet always come from Emirates. Maybe they need a Conte or Mou.

From one Spaniard to Another.


E go shock am say Xavi go do am shege pass Arteta. Its sad it all came down to this. But Auba left Arteta no chance with 4 indiscipline cases under 2 years, and for a captain. If Arteta let that gonna be like he's not man enough to discipline his players. Not that i even like Arteta, but this one is on Auba.


The big player curse continues at Arsenal. Shows thr smallness of the mindset of the club as a whole; when big players are coming and they are settled and begin to wonder what makes the club a big club....


Ozil and Auba


Now its goes on.


This aspect need to change.


Although, Auba knows if this was Wenger in charge, he won't even post on SM talkless come late.

Big player Curse

forgiveness:
Eguavoen has won Bronze at the AFCON. Won Federation Cup. Coached a team to second place in Malta league. Coached in South Africa.

He is definitely far better than Finidi and Amunike combined.

The only problem with a local coach is corruption. Gbam!
Bronze in 2006? 14yrs ago?

Has he done any other national job since then? Cos im very much unfazed by these Malta and SA addition to this cv. Very much to be sidelined to me. We want to do Shaibu Amodu with Eguavoen?

I dunno, but the trust just skyrockets when its not supposed to.


Besides, its not just corruption. We have Tactical acumen too.


But as i said, this appointment is more of Trust than Qualification. I'm riled up cos its a WC year. This shouldn't be happening atall.


We don't want Fans to be singing "Tunisia lo maa jabo" for the two legged WCQ.

That's exactly what's gonna happen. Believe that.
This kinda gamble should never be happening in a WCQ year atall.

Now all of a sudden, chasing shadows is an nig option already cos Afcon might be an experiment and WCQ may never be in the bag either, which would further glorify Rohr if any one of such two scenarios happen.
