Yes aygemang
She will come gradually.

Im not really bothered about the players ageing and all cos as UWCL champs, we've become top destination for players whether we scout or they chase. But from within, there are talented legs all over. I trust Renee to give the necessary nitro alrounda.

Even arteta is being cautious
His main priorities are gk, defense and midfield.
Normally he has no plans for striker that's why he is hellbent on seskô and he's come out Kai is a starter
He will only get a CF to satisfy us
If naso he no like striker, i imagine how he felt on the touchline all the years he had no choice but to field Auba and Laca.

Chaiii. 😂😂😂😂😂😆

Even their goals no sweet am or what?

Infact, the acquisition of Sterling reveals more about the tactical approach or philosophy than anything else. Man got him for whatever Pep-ic reason and even he didn't trust his system player enough for minutes. But his system guy was trusted enough to arrive and be unveiled. Interesting. Lol

Don't stress yourself it will blow in our eyes soon
Shebi e no they hard to buy defenders with big money but we are struggling to complete cf deal
The speed of gk and defenders acquisition shows the influence of a tactician and not a financial genius. Reveals a philosophical approach, which means this is not about the board but Mikel Arteta. Na him no wan buy attacker. 💯💯😂

Nobody on that board aside Sports Director sabi football philosophy. Na football money dem sabi pass.

If board release 300m and na defender we see pass and 0 attacks across 11 windows, that's the influence of philosophy and tactical idea of a tactician--Mikel Arteta.


Lol.

Only thing we can lay at board's feet na availability of funds. Anything else na MA.

Na only Arsenal fans dey do XI wey never even get 50% hope of materializing with the way dem dey do wayo for this transfer market. For now, na noise dey happen. Real noise. Alll of the names we see are still noise.


Why is that when it’s about strikers/attackers arsenal supporters feel Mikel is not backed enough but for midfielders and defenders Mikel is backed enough to spend 105m on one player?

Why do i feel like they go do wayo with final squad for Wafcon? Ashleigh most likely wasn't invited due to recovering and her uefa B duties.

Crux now is the 9s that must complete this squad

Will Blessing Nkor join Onumonu and co?
Which new faces will join each zone(defense, Midfield, attack) at this rate?
Miracle Usani? Shukurat?
Favor? Onyenezide? Efih?
Bolaji? Nkor? Who else?

That Gk dept is not convincing me.
Which even reminds me. Dem Oyono and Omilana? I wish Ozioma was here sha. But even at that, the others don't seem tested for final assessment.

The main controller yesterday was Ruiz who was the man Merino replaced in midfield beside Zubi... Merino lack of "space awareness" (positional sense) was what Vitinha, Silva exploited more once Ruiz was off in getting Mendes and Leao in-between the space he vacated leaving Porro isolated with either Leoa or Mendes ( almost like PSG 1st_leg all over again)... It was Portugal best and most dangerous spell of the match

🇪🇸 Martin Zubimendi vs Portugal:

120 minutes
118 touches
101 passes
94% pass accuracy
5 duels won
2 interceptions
1 goal


Buh let agree to disagree grin grin grin....
This is 1st time i was watching and focused on him but Merino wey i no wan bother about kept stealing through. Well i no dey put high expectations on either. Friendlies League is over. Lets see who and who arrives next. 😂😂

An African equivalent is long overdue. This "friendly" tournament helps to emulate a high stakes competition, akin to the world cup, and as result, European sides are improving much more rapidly.
It will help Africa more than Chan can ever help IMO

ESPN release top 10 of each position. Remain Fullbacks


An Arsenal player is in allllll of the top 10s except the striker top 10. The player we're chasing no even dey top 15. But Gyokeres is in top 10. Lol.

Are you for real? The same Merino that was brought on and the midfield collapsed after Pedri and Ruiz was removed with Leao getting more joy due to Vitinha more freedom... Merino ghosted as usual... that even my United and Chelsea friends joked that Zubi is too good for Arsenal that he's Barca or Real's Material, did you see those surging runs from deep form Zubi...


Merino is our boy buh truth be told, he didn't influence anything when he came on yesterday and he almost gave away PK sef...
Merino defended
Merino pressed
Merino tackled

2/3 are Zubi's duty now. Yet he excelled at it more. I don't think Merino was given controller role in this final.

The ref was truly outstanding.

Merino still outperformed this Zubi sha. For back and front.

Im glad we have MLS. He's in the Mendes Order. It remains b2b pocketing of star wingers. He's great at everything else and he's how old again?

Sadly, no Gunner won anything tonight.

And Diego Costa?? Wow!!

Nuno Mendes. Without this lad, Portugal arent winning sh*t today. What a player. What a left back.

He has locked up Saka, Salah and now Lamine Yamal this season and also provides genuine attacking threat. He is possibly the best LB in the world now.

Congrats to Portugal and CR7 has 3 major international titles with Le Seleccao now - 2016 Euros, 2019 Nations League, 2025 Nations League.
Add Villa Winger and City too. He should be the most valuable fullback right now.

Mujtahida:
playing from the back becomes useless nonsense when it is done all the time. One other thing is this playing from side to side. Is this how football has always been and I'm just noticing it now or it's a new trend?
This side to side is boring and aimless. It's psychological but takes away the entertainment from football. Spain and Pep with this mentality. Germany has the hack to it but they always slip when you don't expect them to, especially with the low quality of their forwards lately. Na same way Arteta dey play. Same for Bournemouth. Marco Silva mixed his with a break and run approach at Fulham.

Low block teams flourish always against it. Shebi if craze meet craze, craze go high. 🤣🤣🤣

Nigeria and Morocco get personnel to punish this Spain and Portugal with the risky passes theses guys take over and over again at the back. Na just better manager remain. It's too risk. They're relying on luck to not get punished.

Well, let's see coz Arteta badly wants a striker this window. Arsenal's highest EPL scorer was on 9 goals (havertz). None hit 10.
Anyone that can match Aubameyang figures is what I'm affect and sesko isn't it. Terrible figures this past season for all our forwards

Chelsea signed Sancho on loan. The reason Sancho was available on loan was because he had a well publicized issue with his coach ten hag. I promise you, the IG issue is insignificant with the reason clubs are not rushing him.
How much do they even want him to take that it is the current issue though?

I sha dunno if all of this is lazily linked to that IG outburst sha. Im trying to imagine all possible outcomes for this dodging their giving such a talented player. My 1st defense is there's been far worse players, all talented but had bad temper and they all flourished. That softens such becoming anything of a genuine reason.

Their perception about VO is wack. That's the issue, regardless of if he's capable or not, or of agent good or not. They fit dey view am as one batshuayi laidat.


Fact remains that if he belonged to any African country, the crap we are currently seeing here, talking down on his ability, will not be on here. It will be different.


I personally don't like the Hilal move, especially as it's still early. But only him knows the kine crap he dey face behind closed doors too. I hope it's not the last resort sha. He's destined for a big league and a big big team.
