dopeJemi:You're very correct. There was a consensus last season that Stone was overrated and overhyped. Infact, both haters and non-haters admitted that it was a wrong move Pep made. I was even thankful Barça dodged the bullet because we were in for him at the time too. And now, everyone is singing a different tune. They wanna say how he was world class prior... Ahh, people should just fear God na. Haba! |
CapitalCee:Nope! I am not happy now! He should stop being a coward. Mourinho leads one of the best clubs in the world in Manchester United, and today Man U is nothing to write home about. Forget about the fact that you're second on the log and hence your team or manager should be lauded. Man U is head and shoulder better than the rest. Can you compare the Arsenals, Chelseas, Tottenhams and even the Citys of this world Man Utd? Nope! They're no where near! The only club that comes near is Liverpool, and that's even because of their rich European history. Mourinho needs to do better then I'll be happy. I love good football and that's why I always call Mourinho out for giving the negation of what I love about football. You'll agree with me that your club deserves better than they are getting now, no? |
eph12:As in ehn... It's really disheartening how peeps on here can twist and turn just within a twinkle of an eye. Tomorrow they'll all be shouting that DK twists and turns more than amala. What hypocrisy! |
CapitalCee:Honestly, for someone of Mourinho's calibre, he is acting cowardly. Ahswear! |
eph12:And now rather than credit him, they're instead giving lame excuses. Mtchew... People sef. |

ctuagent007:O Lawd!!!! You deserve a medal for this... Meanwhile, use this one hold body.
|
CapitalCee:I'm telling you that most don't... At least from my own perspective. Infact, they have more reasons to hate Madrid more with the controversial win they got against you guys in Fergie's era, but yet, most still would choose Madrid over Barça for no just reason. |
Galileogalileo:You're absolutely correct! Messi is what he is today thanks largely to Pep's influence. Yes, Messi is talented, but it couldn't have gone this rosy for him if not for Pep. Pep craved his indulgence when he came in. Told Messi that he could continue living his life anyhow and go with the way Ronaldinho did, or he could stop eating red meat, eat lots of veggies, sleep early and some other things. Pep changed his orientation towards alot of things and today he is regarded as the G.O.A.T. So, as much as a coach would do his part, it's also down to the player to complement the coach"s words with actions. |
CapitalCee:Man U fans do so mostly because of Ronaldo. And also to spite Barça who denied them of 2 UCL trophies. ![]() |
Oasis007:Lol @ fairly... ![]() |
odizeey:And to you? ![]() |
SIRcumalot:Playing good football ain't about playing the tiki-taka style. You can play good football without playing that style. It's just a way of playing. One of many ways to play good footie. Tottenham are playing some good football, but are they playing tiki-taka? Nope... Real Madrid plays good football too, but do they play tiki-taka? Definitely not. Present day Barça plays good football, as always and albeit not like in yesteryears, they still do now. But do they play tiki-taka presently? Far from it. One thing that is common amongst teams who play good football, is attack. The way they play the ball around and how they attack with the ball. Of course defence is also part of the game, and is not being undermined here. But then, football (in its attacking sense) is a joy to watch. You remember the game against Man City vs Monaco last season at the Etihad? It was an absolute gem to watch and whether you were a supporter or hater of any of both teams, you'd appreciate the end-to-end football played on that night. How about the UCL game between Napoli and City? It was spectacular! Why? Because of the attacking intent of the game. Now back to the nitty-gritty. I stated it some few posts ago that earlier in the season you guys played some good football and you scored lots of goals too. At a time, United and City had just 4 goals against, and City was just a goal or 2 ahead in terms of goals for. That was when you guys were actually playing football. But all of a sudden, Mourinho being Mourinho started approaching games with a negative mindset and attitude and then the amount of goals scored dropped, while also you guys started conceding more. Pep has always said the best form of defense is attack. And it's evident in the fact that they've scored the most and conceded the least. If only Mourinho would be brave again and do things accordingly, I think it would really help to reshape things, else, I think the 2nd place would even be up for grabs by other teams. Anyway, let's just see how things unfold. |
Oasis007:Then after that day, what happens next? |
odizeey:Okay then, tell me... Are you guys doing things right at the moment? And, are you playing attractive football? |
odizeey: ![]() ![]() ![]() Novex... I say make I help your team reason their matter small. But I talk bad? |
Oasis007:And yet your fellow fan on here said you must be doing something right for trolls to be overwhelming you guys in recent times... Plus he said your brand of football is attractive, hence the trolls. ![]() Abeg you agree? Talk true.... ![]() |
SIRcumalot:Bia! If na play stop am ooooo. Which kind talk be that na? We tell you say we need ball boy? We get enough already abeg. |
CapitalCee:Yes you have... But the bone of contention wasn't about comparisons to previous seasons, was it? You said that in relation to the trolls, that you must be doing something right for trolls to be swarming your thread in recent times. Anyway, as much as you've really improved compared to previous seasons, I dare say that you are still a long way off especially taking cognizance of the resources you have at your disposal. Hence, I believe there is every tendency that you should have done better than what you're doing now. My point is... At the start of the season it seemed Mou has had everything all figured out and he was actually competing. All of a sudden, he started being a coward and approaching games like an inexperienced manager. And for me, that was where the team started nose-diving. Well, it's all good though. At least you guys are still in 2nd position. But from every indication, it seems it won't be for long because your coach is definitely running out of ideas. And I would still state that at some point earlier in the season you were playing actually well. But now...? |
CapitalCee:You wanna make this hard for yourself bruv... In this time and age, you honestly don't have to be anywhere at any time to give your say or air your view. We have all ways to garner information nowadays, so one cannot be limited to saying if you weren't there, or if you didn't see it then you can't have a say. To a greater extent you can tell of some historical events that ensued in Nigeria in times past. And albeit some might not be entirely true, but to a large extent most will be. Will you be okay if someone says because you didn't experience first hand at the time some of those events transpired then you have no idea what actually happened? Your answer here would really put things into perspective. So you see... You don't have to be there live to know what happened. You also don't have to watch every game to know what happened. I've not been to the States before, but I don't need to see Trump live to know that he is the President of the USA or to have an idea of his kinda person, do I? Just wanted to clear this idea of "you don't watch our matches and hence can't have a say" blah blah blah. Now back to your claim... Can we just be objective now? Can you tell me what you honestly think you guys are doing right in recent games or weeks? Because judging by the turn of events, the reverse seem to be the case, at least judging by recent events. No? |
CapitalCee:And how did you think people come here because you play attractive football? You started this you know... And from the get go your logic was flawed. Just so you know. Moreover, you don't need to watch every match to know what happens, do you? |
CapitalCee:It defies logic to make assertions you can't defend or that are unfounded. Who says I watch your match? The last time I watched your match was against Chelsea and before that, it was Tottenham, and before that, I can't even remember. So, point of redirection... I don't watch your matches. Got it? |
CapitalCee:I don't have anything against one supporting its team through thick or thin... I just didn't fancy the assertion about other club fans getting at you because you are playing attractively and/or doing something right. I decided to clear or correct such impression that there is absolutely nothing attractive about your team at this juncture. Not to say you shouldn't be loyal though. Just don't make such claims ever again. ![]() |
PietroRico:Ahh... My belle ooooo. ![]() |
dubylhover:I see wetin you mean there. ![]() |
CapitalCee:You might just be looking for a way to console yourself bruv because you are doing nothing special. Infact, you are neither doing things rightly nor attractive. Come on, of all the words to use in describing this club that is celebrating mediocrity, why make use of attractive? Haba na... You sef check am. Is there anything attractive in the way your team plays? Talk true abeg... ![]() |
raumdeuter:If Pogba's absence makes them lose and his presence makes them draw. What then makes them win? ![]() |
chrisley024:You got what you asked for... ![]() |
Chelseafan1: ![]() ![]() ![]() |
kokaneprodigy:That Pep is the boss of all bosses. ![]() |
hensben:Men don dey accept the truth... Sebod, Yahoo1, homesteady, eyonigga, et al make una come see ooooo. Nice one bro. Better late than never. I hope the others will accept the obvious truth too. |
raumdeuter:No be lie... I blame Pep. Why him go spend money to buy players? That's why Man U dey lose anyhow. Not fair at all. |
