AirborneLacer:


Are we looking at Wilson Palacios here?

Pogba's defensive side of the game is on the average, you did observe well. I see him to be more of a box-to-box midfielder.

TBH there are few decent DMs out there. It got that bad, that Bayern had to go snap up an ageing Xabi Alonso.

Can we price Javi Martinez away from Pep?

He is another bloke who knows how the deep-lying midfield role works.

lalaboi:
Oluwa o. . Who jinxed Costa/?

Why does Willian get so much games and bore us with his pathetic performances? He needs to taste the bench for some time abeg.

AirborneLacer:


Matic is the best DM in England, no debates there.

If only we can snap up Strootman, and have a midfield pivot of Matic Strootman, then It's a phucking demolition football next season

Nihilist:
What I find strange even got the sport section is someone trying to win an argument solely on the premise that he 'knows his footie'

I'm not even worried about insults and that, but Ibime can you please just make a submission based on facts?

Dayo for example, says Goetze is better than Oscar and backs his position with facts before throwing in the insult..

You just dey abuse anyhow without dropping no facts. That just makes you look silly

Ibime:
When you know your footie, you don't need to listen to clowns.

I was a clown when I was 'hating' on Mata, Ramires, Mikel etc, years before it became cool to hate on them.

Imagine a ninja who opposed Fabregas signing and thought Mata was best thing since sliced bread asking me why I think Mata is a passenger and Fabregas is not? Imagine that - when I'm the one who called it right. A ninja who does not know his thumb from his elbow.

BTW, I was just passing through to speak on two haters from Bayern who were comparing Jose to Brendan when a busybody nigga accosted me about Sterling - thinking because Liverpool are struggling, he can use that to prove Sterling is inferior to Oscar - only to find Sterlings level of contribution is the same in a team in the bottom half.

BTW, I want to ask the ninjas in the house - if the Koke deal goes through, who would be the nigga to be dropped? Would it be Matic or Fab4? Nah! We all know where the weakest link is - in other words, he's just plugging the gap until real niggas arrive!

AirborneLacer:


Don't mock me now bae...

Keky:
It's not by dribbling 10 players and scoring the occasional penalties. Dribble. Assist. Score. Lift team. Be Sanchez.

Ibime:


Give me another winger bar Hazard. You know Hazard is a precise mudafucka who doesn't even do crosses or cutbacks. He will dribble inside and lay the ball on your feet.

Go and fetch Jesus Navas stats for example.

Ibime:


And I responded thus:



All those cutbacks that Raheem regularly cuts back into the box after dribbling his man is what you are counting - nonsense stats.

Also Liverpool is a counterattacking team who break at fast pace. They don't pass easy passes in their half, they break quickly and release passes at speed. Last season, Coutinho only made 80% of his passes (lower than Raheem's 82%) - and every man and his dog knows Coutinho would pass Oscar to death.

Can you see Raheem through on goal with two men either side and overhit a pass as we've seen Oscar do 5 times in the last 3 weeks?

Ibime:


Yes, because from the wing, most of your passes are crosses which don't hit your man. Wingers have much lower percentage success than central midfielders, that's fact, nothing new. Raheem is a much better passer.

Check which of Oscar's passes are successful, it's those 10 yard passes with no pressure. Ramires also plays those passes and gets 85% regularly and no one calls him a decent passer.

As soon as Oscar has to release a man, everything overhit or underhit.

You discussing old news that Nateevs has already covered months ago - he was one of the first to tell us Oscar is a goat at passing, and one of the first to highlight Raheem's brilliance.

Oscar ko, Oscar ni.

Ibime:


For a ninja who 3 weeks ago was comparing Oscar to Gotze, Sterling and Draxler to come back 3 weeks later and claim Oscar is a bad passer means we are making progress.

His touch is also below average, and his vision is non existent.

Keep watching closely nigga. This is enlightenment.

Ibime:


It's my job to make you watch players closely. It took 2 years of me teling everyone on this thread that Ramires is a poor player for ninjas to watch his game.

Technique is not an all-encompassing word. A ninja can have great technique in hitting shots but be piss-poor at passing . Example Jimmy Floyd Hasslebaink, Rashidi Yekini, Ramires.

Oscar does not have anywhere close to the technique of a top midfielder. His technique at hitting shots is just a bonus like Ramires. The nigga is inept at his primary duty.

Ibime:


Same as he eulogised Ramires last season and Torres and Mikel a hundred times.

We ain't concerned with the coach lifting his players morale, you the punk posting every statement here like it's the word of God. He stunk out the place against Maribor, United and Shrewsbury (he even stunk yesterday bar the goal), now you are back for your monthly praise session. Oscar is crap technically, nothing you cut and paste here will improve his technique or vision.

Ibime:
Oscar crap again.

First touch poor, passes astray, no vision and never got on the ball in the no10 position. Everybody was playing football, Oscar just running.

nateevs:


There is no use calling a young player a joke. Yes he is not ready but don't forget he is 17 and this is his first CL appearance for the club. Perhaps he will become a pro some day, perhaps he wouldn't. At least appreciate the shift he put in abeg.

Ibime:


We are here in the Premier league mate. We see what Raheem Sterling is doing and how influential he is, scoring or assisting every game while Oscar struggles to get in the team. That's why Real are sniffing £70m bid for him.

The so called Oscar, two years in England can't even win a nomination for PFA Young Player of the year award and someone said he is one of the top in the world, yet can't make a list of 6 young players in England alone, something Raheem Stirling was nominated for last year - 4 years his junior.

Draxler can't make his National team, neither can Gotze who I just proved is not Oscars mate. If Oscar was German, he might not make the B squad sef.

I have not finished with my Under-23s. What of Aaron Ramsey, a ninja who is winning games week in, week out?

Oscar ko! Oscar ni!

Ibime:


Chelsea is in the top 5 clubs in European footie.

So why should I name ten under 23s?

Our AM should equally be in the top 5 or 10 AMS - this is not U17 World Cup we're playing here.

Top-10 Under 23 level players should be playing at Leverkusen, not Chelsea.

If I start listing the Gotze's, Draxlers and Sterlings of this world finish, I'm sure I'll get past 10 sef.

Ibime:


First of all, Oscar never played in the "park the bus" games so forget that excuse. Jose wouldn't let him.

Go and check Lampard's stats in 2004-2006 under the same Mourinho and tell me whether he was playing only 36 passes a game.

If Oscar's game is not about passing, where are his assists and goals? Na 5 assists and less than 10 goals we go chop every season?


Like I said, I never had no problem with Oscar. He's a good player. This is about holding Guapo accountable for airbrushing Lampard out the way for Oscar. Guapo and I been going at it for the last 2 years over this issue. He won't even acknowledge that Lampard schooled Oscar in his old age, after Guapo shunted Lampard aside to make way for Oscar.

I don't mind Oscar in the team, except for big games. But make no mistake, there are many better midfielders out there. Niggas should just stop gassing after one good game in months. Hazard is his agemate and doing it weekly.

Ibime:
it will surely happen unless Oscar learns to play as a genuine central midfielder

Ibime:


Check the previous page. His stats since joining Chelsea is 36 passes a game - FACT!

We are going to have (Andreas) Christensen and (Nathan) Ake, who are 19-years-old and coming from the Academy. We are going to have training with us, but also playing for the Under-21 team, (Dominic) Solanke, (Jeremie) Boga and (Izzy) Brown. The other ones who are a bit older, 20 or 21, we feel they need to compete against men in a different league, people like Bamford, Swift, Chalobah. They are ready to go to other clubs and have a good loan.

What we are trying to do, and we believe we are going to be successful, is in a few years’ time, when they are between 20 and 23, we will have them back at the right moment and in the first-team squad.
