Ibime:
Pep is selling his B team players that will improve other squads first team.

All fingers are not equal

Lol. Just like Salah and KDB, our B team players are improving their respective clubs now.

Both of us can’t even name the better player that’ll be replacing Sterling in ManCity, Pep never wanted to sell him, heard he wasn’t buying the contract and condition of not being guaranteed a starter or so...

It’s okay to dislike Sterling because of his misses, but there’s no way you can convince any truthful person that Sterling isn’t an upgrade for us.

airmark:
I am not sure Rafael Leao will cost more than 55m and if he costs more, it is better to go for him than wasting 55m on a player that nearly gave Fraudiola heart attack on the field with his misses.

Smh

Griffon:
The name alone gives away his ineptitude. If only the manyoo board had a Yoruba translator up North, dem no for give that man that job

You don’t know the pressure and expectations that comes from everyone when you’re spend well

Just watch Conte next season, watch the backlash that’ll come when he messes up.

Griffon:
I sabi buy the market pass am with an open cheque.

Shey no be to deliver you want?

Ole spent more than Pep in EPL

Griffon:
Open Cheque.

So you’re saying you sabi coaching work pass Pep?

Griffon:
Don’t mind them.

Most of Citehs fringe players can comfortably walk into our first XI without issues. These lot don’t know how mediocre our team looks on a good day.

Tuchel only came around and made everyone look gold. On a normal day, Sterling suppose line up with people like Werner, Loftus Cheek and Sarr?

Leave them nh.

Sterling is a world class player. He has every stats it takes to judge a world class winger, plays in the “Toughest League” and has won it more than any winger in EPL.

The only winger to player 6 seasons under PEP as a manager, dropping 25+ G/A back to back.

Unless you have Ronaldo, prime Messi, Suarez, Mbappe and Salah as your wingers, you’re not qualified to talk down on Sterling.

Griffon:
The guy dey even lose match sef for EPL. See the kind record I dey set for my own fantasy island.

I can do better than Pep with an open Cheque.

Na mumu go doubt you.

BlueAngel444:
are you sure? Have you check Son?

Check Their stats.

Hate go so much blind you eh.

Same Pep we all agreed was signing quality players to dominate EPL, as e wan sell them, them no be quality again.

If he decides to sell Gundogan today now, una go still talk say no be quality again.

Troll with the truth and fact, else you’ll be contradicting yourself and looking very confused with opinions.

Griffon:
I’ll do better, I’ll win 5 in 5 years.

Pep is playing fantasy football with that City side.

Guy rest abeg.

He’s shiiting on EPL

airmark:
3yrs is ok, wtf is 6yrs?

No winger since the history of EPL has been more productive than Sterling in 6 years.

Griffon:
When you take the market home, you must deliver. If I decide to move into management today and I’m fortunate to be handed an open Cheque to build my squad, nigga with the little knowledge I have about footie, I go deliver.

Make una no dey hype what pep does. Many aren’t fortunate to be up there chatting with Sheikh Mansour.

He deserves whatever hype he’s getting.

He has comfortably turned EPL to farmers league, winning 4 in 5 years.

Give him his credit.

Android17:
Yes, Pep rotates every player not named Rodri, Ederson, Diaz and KdB. Sterling like even Mahrez was rotated. But he played more as a winger than Mané.

Even KDB has played false9 for Pep before.

airmark:
Why last 6yrs? Why not last 3yrs?

Maybe you’ll use past 1 year to compare Benzema and Giroud too.

BlueAngel444:
ya I know, but that doesn't undermine sterling in anyway, sterling has had good numbers for almost a decade, dishing out 20+ G&A

But honestly for the last two seasons Mane has been the better LW, even Son has been better

Maybe because sterling hasn't been consistent in the team, maybe

No winger dead or alive in EPL has been more consistent than Sterling for the last 6 years.

Griffon:
The next man should find a way out. Either to jettison those who don’t fit into his own ideals or work with what he has.

I think the only manager in modern football who tend to work with the pack at his disposal without bothering the board so much is Carlo Ancelloti. Apart from him, every other top manager have a demand to make, except for Pep, who always want to take the entire market home.

Only Pep has the qualities it takes to have that control over a team because he delivers.

Others shouldn’t....

BlueAngel444:
Mane has been better the past two seasons

Last 2 seasons....

Mane 53G/A

Sterling 52G/A

BlueAngel444:
you saying sterling has more numbers than mane for 6 seasons straight

Sterling has been more productive than Mane for the last 6 seasons.

It’s just like saying Kane has been more productive than Son for the last 6 seasons, then you start objecting because of last season.

Check Sterling and Mane numbers for the last 6 seasons.

BlueAngel444:
are you including last season and the previous one as well

What don’t you understand from my post?

Griffon:
Do we have the players to perfectly execute TT’s idea? NO!

It’s the sole reason I told you to relax and allow TT to build his team. You don’t expect me to fix a leaking roof with a pen, I need the right tools.

This transfer window is all he has to make a statement.

It’s risky to give a manager full control of a team.

Very risky...

What happens to those players when he leaves?

Griffon:
His attention is actually on ball playing, being aggressive is just an added advantage.

You must have lost count of how many times Rudiger would surge forward towards the halfway line with the ball, it’s an approach to shut down the amount of time the opposition has to play, which essentially promotes TT’s idea of counter-pressing.

That rubbish dey hardly work for Chelsea.

OJURONGBE1:
Sadio Mane, a far better player joined Bayern for £48m. What are you on?
My own is do not sign players that are not of true value.
There are players whose hype & media shenanigans precede their usefulness. Look at werner, Ziyansh, Pulishit, Kepa & Lukaku.

Sterling has been more productive than Mane in the last 6 years.

FirstbornWds:
Araujo will walk into Chelsea's defense, effortlessly.

He wouldn't for city, tho.

No be only Araujo, na aradugbo

Griffon:
God of transfers talk say na Ake and De Ligt be TT’s preferred options for defense.

Your thoughts fam.

Tuchel seems not to like aggressive players.

a4turitoroman:
Even chike is even far better than the rest people you mentioned.
Whitemoney

Why are you laughing at WhiteMoney?

Quality PR and promotion is the only difference between the Ckay and WhiteMoney. If quality energy, promotion, Tiktok and PR from BBN fans were used for WhiteMoney’s first song, he would have been bigger. Wasn’t that the same stuff that helped Ckay?

You dropped a song since 2019, but it took Bollywood addicts from India, Egypt, Hong Kong and Philippine to trend it on tiktok in 2021 for you to get recognition. Na who dem dey compare to men wey blow organically with their crafts.

hensben:
Exactly, people are now mistaken internet world to real life. Online streams and certifications nor be real life audience oo.

Imagine the audacity to bring Ckay in a discussion of Fireboy and Rema.

I guess it was streams from “Nwantiti” that brought him in the discussion thou.

Someone that can’t go head to head with Zinolesky when it comes to quality craft with organic doings.

Comparing CKay to Rema and Fireboy??

Just like BBN made Laycon and his songs popular, Tiktok made Ckay and his song popular.

You don’t compare these people with Rema and Fireboy please. Let’s respect ourselves.

Ckay, Laycon, WhiteMoney and Chike should be in the same category. People who didn’t grow organically with their craft, just luck from tiktok, BBN and MTN project fame/The Voice Nigeria.

Bombblacks:
Just stop please. Ckay is the most booked African artiste so far in 2022 with over 30 bookings across 20 countries while headlining 6 of them. You think show promoters are dumb or what. Ckay will sellout any arena in Europa, US and around the world currently. He is the most popular African artist in the world ryt now.

This is pure cap

airmark:
Probably, except Fireboy. Fireboy just performed at Wembley today. Not sure any Afrobeat singer did that before him.

So...

Fireboy >> Wizkid

Rema>>>> All his peers.

And that’s fact.

Bombblacks:
How can a song that have over 1.5 billion streams in all streaming platforms including sportify and even apple music be manipulated and be bots? What a silly excuse to come up with. If it's that easy then all artists for they chop that amount on a regular na.

It becomes bots when it’s Ckay, but it’s legit and okay to use the same charts and streams to defend Fireboy against Rema.

Selective investigation

Barcelona’s reject DJ, about to cost ManU 85m+

Lmao!!!

Someone who isn’t EPL proven, only career highlight and achievements was dribbling Modric years back in UCL.
