Kilishihunter: No lies chief With those three thugs wey dey their midfield we'll have to be very careful with possession, nobody for our own strong reach them, them just be like rayo with better players sef, e go get point for the match wey we no go see anything play cause of their high pressing like wetin dem do Liverpool and psg few years back
Forget Newcastle's midfield. They can't take possession from Pedri. My worry is our high line defence which is likely to be destroyed by Newcastle's pact wingers.
andrewbaba44: Aside Villarreal beating spurs ,I don’t know what you where expecting from atletico and bilbao
You expect atletico that cannot bear elche to beat Liverpool ?
Or you expect bilbao that cannot beat a weak team like Man U to beat a far better arsenal ?
The only result that surprised me is spurs beating Villarreal ,I still think Villarreal was even the better team
I may understand Bilbao's case, but It's not long ago when Atletico knocked out Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool from UCL at ANFIELD when Liverpool were defending champion. Same Atletico with around 300m dollars spent in summer looked like a championship team last night.
What of Madrid that had to fraud a penalty to beat a grade B team from France. Same Madrid played with a man down for an hour and still won an away match last weekend in La Liga.
Let's just hope Barcelona bring smile on our faces tonight.
This season's UCL will fully expose La Liga as a very weak league. Even Barcelona and Madrid are weak, but due to poor competition in La Liga, it looks like they are strong.
This UCL will expose everything wrong with the league and how Tebas has ruined it.
Boring Boring LA Liga. No competition at all. Even if Madrid or Barcelona play with 2 men down, they still have a higher chance of winning the match.
Thank you Messi and Ronaldo for making it the best league in the world during your prime years. As of now, I don't even miss watching La Liga matches anymore.
Baddestguyp: This begs the question that I've been left wondering---
"What exactly does De Jong do in that midfield?"
De Jong and Casado should be sold. I don't know why our management can't see that as a priority. They are a waste of space in our midfield and it feels we're always a man down when any of those two feature.
AirBere: If Curbasi who doesn't have pace and not strong enough like him can play, Christensen can as well. I actually don't see what Curbasi is better than Christensen. Even passing, the difference is not much. Danish Madini for a reason.
Barca would've conceded again if Araujo completed this game. I think I've said it before and I'm saying it again, if he was on the pitch, Barca would've reached the UCL final.
I knew he was the truth after replacing Thiago Silva in the 2021 UCL final and ending the game with the title. He was part of your defense under Xavi which had one of the meanest defence in Laliga.
He's clear of everyone here. Abi you want use Curbasi and Araujo compare Christensen? Even Inigo no reach. Inigo wey dey chow bench when Christenson was fit.
I've never mentioned anywhere that either Cubarsi, Martinez or Araujo is better than Christensen. His record at Chelsea is very good; but he's been injury prone since he came here, and so we still can't conclude that he's the best we've got.
We hope for an injury free season for Christensen to finally show us that he's the answer to our defence.
Colson: Abegi. If it was MATS on goal na another story we for dey hear.
I don't think there's anyone who criticised Stegen on penalties. Stegen's issue is well documented and penalty is the least of them. It's you trying to create an unnecessary agenda.
AirBere: Including Inigo, there's no defender at Barca that is better than Christensen. No one.
He'll 100% improve our defence. Him and Colwil is a title winning defence. I hope he can return this season or next. I knew Barca won't concede again with him on the pitch.
Jury is still out on Christensen. He came up when our players were on extra gear and piling pressure on Levente. I will wait to watch Christensen when we are under pressure like what happened in the 1st half.
It's very evident that our CBs will cost us dearly this season. Araujo and Curbasi shouldn't be our top CBs. We need to go to the market to get a solid defender.
agentNija: Manuel Neuer to me is the best among them. He started what coaches are now calling 'playing from the back'. Peter Cech remains the best ever.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1r2r37vaA0g Why did Cena suddenly turn face? Why are Cody and Cena drinking beers together before the street fight? What monkey is writing this story?
I think they're paying the ground for Cody turning heel. But it still feels like scrap
