Jodera:
I tell you... Once defence park bus or both defence and midfield are very solid, then it's over for us.

Seriously, we'll just be another Moyes under Everton strolling but this time strolling between 7-10th consistently
We'd just be doing that stupid and rapidly useless left to right passing despite the numerous presence in the box. Personally i expect crosses into the boxes instead of those wingmen tryna find space to be doing pass and shoot. See how just their strikers kept interrupting the left to right crap and got uninterrupted, not even fouled till they enter our box 18. Shameful.

If Arteta is over drilling these guys in training and this is the results. I'd take mild training and full Concentration over useless, non productive drills.


I noticed they just seems less energetic, even though Palace came energetic only when attacking. Once again, those dispossessions dey worry my mind. One too many

Odegaard is no starter. Especially against an energetic team. The dispossessions tonight is a big cause for big worrying. Especially as it leads to a stroll straight at Ramsdale with virtually no interception.



Ndidi>>>>>>Partey

He loves luck as well. Disconnected from fans.


Thierry and Vierra know what they say to the press. I think Arteta is too comfy

Make we no deceive ourselves...
Nothing Wey Arteta fit do to carry us go top 6

Him no get attacking pattern one bit
He lacks a plan to break down a resolute compact defence where the opponents don't care about possession. He just doesn't know how.


Two players he never hoped are worthy to be in his XI for crappy reasons saved the day

Arteta with his useless experiments. You are going up against a physical Palace side, you decide to pair Odegaard with Partey as your midfielders..
Once again,it proves he doesn't know how to prepare against his opponents' strengths. Its like he doesn't consider it in his planning. Other coaches are doing that except Mikel. So piss poor.

Doesn't seem like he thinks about the what ifs. And he's stubborn.


Stupif sideway passes with no creativity.

We were a goal up in 10th minute and this werey coach already parked the bus
I knew what i said when i said we'd struggle against Crystal. Its evident. Hope Aston Villa doesn't do a double by weekend. Smh.


Lokonga is best brought on when we have a convincing lead. I doubt he can master epl tempo just yet. Oh, all dispossession are at Tomiyasu and Pepe side. Wassuping? Too poor. Be like Vierra analyzed that Brighton game well.


A bottom table coach just need to study our past games and put players in loops and Arteta crumbles.

Everytime we want Xhaka out. When he is off The XI, the team never do like they don't need his presence. We miss Xhaka abeg.

This is one stupid Midfield combo im seeing.


Its all a stupid network but Xhaka is some respite that helps

BlueRayDick:
Partey's had a first half of mixed fortunes. One minute he's making a critical cover /block and the next minute he's getting bypassed like expressway.

I observe if Pepe can get sharper than he presently is, he will benefit more from long passes from Ben white. If he can just be half as sharp as dem Salah and Mane that do latch on to Van Djik's long balls from the back, then he will be very deadly upfront.
I think Partey needs Xhaka more than Xhaka needs Partey. Cos this is three poor 45mins in a row. I suspect he's not fit. But he scored for Ghana last week na. What's stifling Partey? angry


I think A focus on improving Pepe is already evident. The easiest is understanding between him and Yasu. I expect he'd come more lethal with aerial balls soon.

Arteta is not for us at all
We are playing defensive at home with a goal up
We switched off after the goal playing counter attack
Even viera they tap us, which kind wahala be this
I noticed that all our three Midfielders will be in a straight line, and one pass will go through the spaces between all three to Benteke. And Partey that should be on Benteke would be running crap. Should the Midfield be doing zonal marking on the back foot? Stale. Very stale. Its 3v 1 and that 1 Will still get a cool Ozil pass to their forward. Stale!!

Pepe dey play well today thus far
i think Auba is playing better though. And Partey is the worst so far this first half. What's happening?

People are commenting, expecting that the tattoos are gone.

Its should rather send a message to you all that if you do things harmful to your flesh, it will bear the consequences, especially for young people, probably till they die most times, if miraculous healing don't occur. Be it smoking, drunkenness, etc. But your soul is already assured of eternal life.

Brighton are a team in form. Emphasis on team because they actually play as one. An away draw against them isn't that bad. It's actually easier beating Tottenham at home.

All English defenders are hyped. Maguire is only more hyped than others. Lol.
True sha. The next one may be 120m and may not even smell UCL in 5yrs sef.

Said he only heard such from the press and so he isn't bothered about side comments about his job for the time being.

Exactly
Those bunch indigenous coaches failed
The painful thing is that after been relieved of their jobs they barely go develop themselves or acquire more skills to help them do better

They keep rally round to be recycled into the system and fumble again the cycle continues
No mata how poor Rohr is, which is admitting the truth sha, these indigenous coaches just sabi paper column arguments and interviews, asif it would help anybody or even themselves. Very sickening those years at all levels of football. Epic failure most of them were.


And as you said, they don't develop themselves to make themselves marketable after one or two failures. Just sitting expecting to wake up to a fill in the gap job somewhere. Asif they don't even follow club football in Europe or South America. Only recently a few of them are eager to go for coaching education.

That being said, Rohr na Carpernter in Chief.
