Reality on Ground, backed and in strong affirmation by key players of The Invincibles.

Behold Daniel Ek, the Swede Billionaire about to become Owner. Kroenke is about to be booted out. And yeah, he means to bring those two. Is the Emirates ready for this?

Wake up bro kroenke ain't selling shít
But if it happens Arteta won't be the coach

See you?

Person wey don drop Selling price of 2.15 this morning. Lol. You wey suppose know Kroenke by now. Moneybee !!

If Arteta isn't, no p. And since the Igwe set are pushing Daniel Ek,then I'm very sure the club philosophy will be unaffected by any Coach. Infact Arteta might be left as Manager. Cos he just needs better players.

Seniorman Kelechi goals are what we are even focusing on cos e dey sweet belle. His movement, passing, touches, technicality, are sweet to watch over and over again. Plus he does it without much muscle or sweat. Another POTM loading. Bruno ko, Gundo ni! Kele all the way!

Rodgers is still yet to come to terms with what he's seeing.

I just checked the stat of our other wingers..
Apparently, only Ejuke has a better crossing success rate than Osimhen... Chukwueze comes close with 21% I just checked the stat of our other wingers..

Seems this season, Simy got the Serie A.

Osimhen though should be more central. Although when called on, left wing shouldn't be a problem. Most Epl teams do it. Vardy racing down the wing and Seniorman almost made his assist effort waste, but God save Seniorman there.

He however did a Lingard when Celebrating. Go meet Vardy na. You run go meet flag. grin

Jodera:
I know of lacazette getting injured, but who is the other player injured?

One thing is that nketiah can play nonsense or loss in games, but you see poacher, I give him that. He's a very good poacher.

As for xhaka, he's playing midfield plus Lb cos he doesn't attack. I don't see anything burdensome there.
Our left attack was not so agile cos it's always martinelli attacking that side only him.

Well, I think we were just unlucky and from the lineup, Arteta is prioritizing the Europa over the league. I'll do same if I'm him

Xhaka scare is the other. Seemed good, but i don't think it is.

I pray his plans form a good cake.

Are you sure??
According to sofascore, he has a crossing successful rate of 22% this season.... That's not actually impressive...

Im less bothered about the VAR issue today. Im bothered about the fact that there was no urgency from the middle. Xhaka playing those two positions... that's very burdensome.

Two key players on injury list. Ending the match with young attack.

It's good Nketiah proved his own mettle.

Under Wenger, twould have been 5-0.

Elneny shouldn't have started.

Aina getting the better of Martinelli one-one

I hope Southgate's presence isn't putting pressure on these boys? That's if they know he's even in the stands though.

OTD Sober Reflection: Adefemi Olubayo

On this day in 2011, Naija Football lost a son and a rising prospect who was approaching his peak.

He was a key member of the Wonderful 2005 U-20 Flying Eagles side that had John Mikel Obi, Taiye Taiwo, Chinedi Ogbuke Obasi, Apam Onyekacki, Isaac Promise (also late), Solomon David Abwo, and more.

He was also a member of the Silver Medal-winning Dream Team Eagles side of 2008 in which we lost to Messi's Argentina again.

He was also part of the XI that shocked France in 2009 in that international friendly between Les Bleus and Our Super Eagles under Late Amodu Shuaibu.

Adefemi Olubayo was a Right back who could also play right midfield/Right wingback.

Before he passed away 10 years ago today, he had a very good debut season for Skoda Xanthi in the Greek Super League. He was primed for a better season in 2011/2012 and getting set to be married to his lady when the accident happened in Greece. He was on his way from Xanthi to Saloniki to finalise details of his wedding.

Keep resting dear Adefemi. A lad who could have been more in the GWG. Lad was a fine baller.

This set, e be like one Babalawo do them strong thing. Hearing where Vanzekin is right now and the way he's so disrespected on pitch grounds in Benin....

Rip Olubayo.

Jodera:
To be very honest, I'm not to afraid of chukwueze. Granted he's talented but I still feel he's still to raw for that completeness needed in a good player (noted I said good not great). I'm more wary of Emery's tactics than Chuks himself

Moreover, Tierney might be probably out of the season, so unfortunately, Chuks isn't meeting him

Emery and Counter with the urge to stay front than go back to loosen a defense. If he had King Santi, I'd have feared his Midfield.

Whoever Chuks meets asides Tierney, Chuks will shine am comot o. That's if he see ball play sha.

Arteta should be careful, ebening will be out for blood
2 aways goals should do the trick, Villarreal hardly score but I'm concern about chukwueze

Chuks aka SmackDant is too good and will give Tierney issues. Both are good. But Villareal go be like what Granada was to Man U on two legs. Very slick but no end game.

I think Villareal's defense should rather watch out for the fantastic 4 youngsters in attack. They can't handle.

From what I see Vandrezzer fc are leaving the NNL because the league is an enemy of its own progress. The NFF must step in and make things work because losing this club will hurt Nigerian football in more ways than one.

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

Saw the article. Its said that even if Vandrezzer is wronng(which i believe they aren't), the speed at which decisions were turned without any notice and information shows how poor that NNL is. I even wonder if the NFF are aware that such a league is running and should be run to the best capacity.

Im sure one or two senators and reps have called powers that be that caused these reversals. The drastic changes scent of such crew ONLY.

Relief seeing Arsenal 3matches away from UCL football once again. No need to praise them yet until after the Fulham game. But Smith Rowe? And Laca with 4goals in 2games. Deserves some praise.

You would keep the best goals-hungry Striker/Left wing forward that never went pro away from the team??

I once bagged 19 goals in one game of fives vs fives.

You dont know what you are missing.

Meanwhile Tbaba1234 will be in goal. We can call him out of retirement.

Nerdy......

Mourinho can never coach this team very uselessly lazy

I like Mou from way back. but the subs he did against us shows he's losing it already tactically. He should get a ball playing defender if he wants to succeed against such style of play from opponents. cos Dele Alli added nothing, same for Sissoko. Bale could have being a better stay after that red for them.

Magical nights at Highbury!
Henry was unplayable and absolutely classy player. He scored some of the best goals I have ever seen and understood how to command the ball with his shot technique.

That word.... unplayable!! we need such players in any XI. we aren't far... The Future is Arsenal.

Most of our current players are just mentally lazy. It’s all about the money and Instagram now.

to be honest, It’s the case with the current footballers at large. Irrespective of club.

I see a shadow of that seriousness in our midfield.

if we eliminate those self induced errors, Arsenal's road to glory is near.

Gone are those days Arsenal will score a goal and you’ll want to watch the replay over and over.
These days Na make ball sha enter anyhow anyhow

i watched Arsenal's road to the UCL final of 2006. i felt bad watching it as each min passed.

the gap in talent and technical ability is way too large.

i noticed the penetrative power around the middle of the opponents'(Ajax, Juve, Madrid, Villareal) box 18.

And then solo decision making by whoever was lucky to be in the box at the time of an attacking attempt.

Arsenal is now a middle table team in the EPL. no one should be sentimental and argue this.

ManCity+ManU+Liverpool=Arsenal
2+4+4=10

Number of Losses after GW23!!

Hope dey, but not the bright kind. Lol

meanwhile, this pic is epic. the GK at the back celebrating....
