When a coach like Mourinho has had three months to observe an opponent and prepare his team, it was always going to be difficult. It is natural to 'play into his hands'. He made it that way.

The players are just back with different level of fitness, we can excuse mistakes. But we know Maguire is naturally slow. Vidic too was slow. These kind of players use positioning to shield their defence.

What's DDG good at now??

Even the legs he was the best at, he can't find them anymore
Until Romero keeps 10 straight league matches before we can say he is good to be United number 1.

I will pick Matic over Fred as DM everyday.

Don't be deceived by Matic's lack of pace, you don't need speed to play 4
Mine is to watch the players and see. We were playing well with Fred, McTominay and Matic. Let us see what happens now that Pogba is back. Who plays best with who and comparison in different situations.

You are funny. You are the one making a direct comparison. Let these guys play football and let us see. A player might be better but doesn't suit a team.

Thank you ooo

Guys are saying its a powerful show.

Something Romero will save without stress
Romero is not good at low shots. But he is super at difficult aerial threats easy. He commands his box.

ChristineC:
we need a striker that can at least keep the ball upfront. we have non at the moment except Ighalo. in games where teams would rather sit deep and allow few spaces, a striker who can keep the ball or win his duels more times than lose it will draw more defenders to himself and create some breathing space for the support cast.
the whole area around Spurs' box was choked and there was very little for late runners to work with.
Ole should play Ighalo when a team park the bus. He will occupy the two central defenders and forced an error

Where are those people hyping Fred

Matic is way better than him, Fred is just gara gara
I thought it was Matic should be sold just four months back. How do we allow ourselves to be swayed easily by current moment. Fred was our best player for a while and suddenly after one match he is the worst?

You guys should let these boys play football and see how things look

Just as Iheanacho had better goals/mins than Aguero that year at City, but we know who was the better striker.

I'm very busy today. Tomorrow i will expose the average albino that managed a paltry 73 assists in like 20 seasons, playing with top quality attackers. That's like 4 assists per season.
Now you are bringing Iheanacho and Aguero after you have been found out in the scale of more reliable stats. When you were comparing Scholes, Iniesta and Modric, did you remember Iheanacho?

Secondly how many thousand minutes did Iheanacho have in City to be compared to Aguero? We are talking of comparing tens of thousand of minutes vs tens of thousand of minutes.

Something is wrong with you Ephraim.

Ask your Elampiro to tell us why the albino couldn't play impressive minutes, despite playing for about 20yrs. While at it, he should remove the goals he scored as a 2nd striker from his numbers.
Lampard played as an Attacking midfielder throughout. He also was taking free kicks

Scholes didn't have many matches because of injuries and sometimes SAF rested him

Look at Scholes injuries from in recent years. He was missing 15, 18, 20 games due to injuries

The Premier League plans to kick off the restart of football, with Manchester United’s away clash against Tottenham.

ESPN reports that the original restart date of June 12 is, however, set to be scrapped, after clubs insisted on three weeks of full-contact training before playing.

You should try harder next time.

Scholes - 73 assists in 709 matches.

Modric - 100 assists in 562 matches

Iniesta - 153 assists in 719 matches

Can you see that Scholes was terrible?

DEEP lying princess. grin
1. Modric has 44,292 minutes: 61 goals, 100 Assist and has won Ballon D'or

2 Scholes has 51,000 minutes: 152 goals and 73 Assist.

3. Iniesta has 49,895 minutes 67 goals and 153 Assists

Scholes is more productive with 225 minutes to produce a goal while Modric takes 275 minutes.
Inistsa has 226 minutes. Scholes won among the three.

All top names. What of their goal record?

Few midfielders like the ones above drive Mercedes when it comes to assists, but live in Boys-quarters when it comes to goals.

Some midfielders drive Tokunbo (assists) but live in Mansion (goals) eg Dele Alli

Lampard is one of select few central midfielders that drive Mercedes and live in Mansion.

Be Kwayet!
Scored 41 penalties from open play and 8 from shootout for Chelsea. Being the penalty taker for a long time helped his goals tally. In his career he scored 60 penalties.

Minus his penalties let's know how many real goals he scored grin grin grin

Meanwhile Scholes only scored 3 penalties.

thorrvik55:

Paul Scholes = 54 league assists -> The greatest midfielder to have played in EPL.

Frank Lampard = Over 100 league assists -> Not good enough

Zinedine Zidane = 69 league assists(France+Spain+Italy) -> One of the greatest midfielders to have played the game of football



grin grin grin

Some have eyes but cannot see...

After 19 years of playing as a midfielder at a top club the Greatest midfielder to have played in EPL could only manage 54 league assists.

Someone that's not even the greatest albino to have played in EPL...
The comparison is screwed.

Lampard 71,184 minutes played
Scholes 51,302 minutes played

Lampard was more like the Attacking Midfielder in Chelsea in 3 man midfield.
Scholes was moved backward very early by SAF to be one of two CMs.

And what concerns me with swish and his legend?

I am asking you what made Scholes to produce paltry 73 assists in 709 matches? 1 assist in like every 10 matches. Name one great CM with such shameful stat?
How many minutes of football do you think those 708 matches are? For instance, between 2010 and 2013, Lampard played 13, 817 minutes and Scholes played 6,512 in same period. So Scholes played less than half football time Lampard played.

Another angle to it is understanding football formation. Lampard was the most advanced midfielder in Chelsea 4-3-3 like De Bruyne is in City while Scholes was one of two CMs just like we have Fred and McTominay. This is one angle some of my guys here did not understand when I had an argument with them. Midfielders are different.

@Op firstly, there are rats in your house, there's a need to rid your house of rats "number 1 thing that attracts snakes". 2. This snake chase a rat into your soak away and couldn't find its way out, so it follow the only place where with its forked tongue sense oxygen, which is your toilet bowl. Many do believe that the water in the closet go all along to the soak away, NO it ends right after the U-bend that's why if you open the chamber at the back you find it dry. 3 get bottles of sniper and empty it into your toilet bowl and flush at least twice to kill other crawling stuffs breeding in your soak away. 4. Your 2 soak away pit are connected together, pls get a plumber to disconnect it, or expect more crawling visitors plus you may find out you spend more treating malaria as you will have mosquitoes and other insects infestation as result of your connected soak away.
Pls can you explain further number 4? What is the connection you are talking about? How is this disconnection done?

No matter the debt relief granted Nigeria, we can never be debt free under this current government.

The more the debt relief comes, the greater the borrowing capacity and tendency to borrow more and use it for frivolous irrelevant looting projects.
Still better than the previous govt that was shouting Nigerians should be ready for hardship when oil price was $79.

My consideration is limited to those players who 'prosecuted' the 1994 world cup qualifying matches and the 1994 Nations cup. Mostly from the first group game away to Ivory Coast.

Ugbade believed he would have gone as reserve LB because he had played that position several times as well. Emenalo coming in blocked that possibility.
There was no place for him in that loaded midfield.
Ok, it is a long time ago. We have forgotten some things that happened and the particular positions they were fighting for. Thanks for the update.

I personally didn't think Ugbade had a compelling argument to make the squad he wasnt one of the outstanding players in the team. I think Oliseh coming and being an instant hit was one of the reasons Ugbade had to be dropped. He might argue that he is on the same level or slightly better than those who made it like Emenalo, Ezeugo

He also wanted to be the first Nigerian to make U17 world cup, U20 world cup and Senior world cup
Emenalo played as a left back in the world cup. So he obviously didn't obstruct Ugbade's chance of getting selected. Emeka Ezeugo had a physical presence Ugbade didn't have. Oliseh and Ugbade were both in nations cup as two midfielders who didn't play the world cup qualifying matches. Ugbade was a flop and kept exposing us. I was pained he was not allowed to make the world cup team to enable him male history. But the decision was the best. Some people wanted Ikpeba to be dropped because he was a new invitee who whose chance of getting a game was 1/20

Ugbade and Edema Fuludu.

Modified. I see elampiro has already answered.

I think i have gisted you guys about Ugbade and the spiritual warfare that he believes led to his exclusion from the 94 squad courtesy Keshi and his boy Mike Emenalo. Very funny story.
Ugbade has no excuse. He was poor in Tunisia 94. He also did not take part in the qualification to USA 1994. If out all, it should be scantily. It was Thompason Oliha, JJ Okocha, Isaac Semitoje that were in our midfield. Then Adepoju was also used.

Even Oliseh came after we had qualified for the world cup. But he was an instant hit in the final match of the Nations cup qualifier.

Oliseh na baller when he came in 1993, He brought another dimension of vision and long-range pass into our National team that was when we realized we have a real world-class player on our hand

Did you hear when Oliseh was giving one speech recently about Yekini, He said

See this pass to Yekini, why won't a striker be praying for Oliseh every day, One-time ball and the striker isolated with the keeper

Health › Re: White Tongue After Unprotected Sex: Please Doctors In The House I Need Your Help by elampiro(m): 1:15am On Apr 15, 2020
Scaredd:
Good day everyone,

I'm the guy that likes to flirt with women (trying so hard to change). Sometime last year November, I hand some sex encounters with 4 different women (2 unprotected) and by first week of December I started experiencing some symptoms which include;

1.White tongue
2. Occassional diarrhoea (watery, oily and formy stool ever since then. I feel sudden need to ease like twice or thrice a day).
3. A gradual weight loss (I eat very well, mainly fruits and proteins with carbohydrates on average)
4. Occasional hand tremor.
5. Occasional body vibration and fast heart rate.

I used to smoke marijuana and take alcohol, but stopped. I also masturbated for about 5-6yrs, then stopped last year which added to flirting with women. I've not masturbated since then, but still take alcohol (mainly vodka).

I went to a university teaching hospital, met with the consultant and explained to her just as I'm doing here (she was wowed!). She then directed me to do HIV test (came back negative), H. Pylori test (also came out negative) and another test (I've forgotten the name).

She then prescribed, nystatin oral suspension and vitamin B Complex which I've finished taking, yet no change. Meanwhile, I've taken fluconazole, antibacteria and probiotics of late.

I'm waiting for the lockdown to be lifted to go back, but before then, (who knows when this whole problem will end) felt i might get some help here.

Please Doctors, what could be wrong with me. Especially this diarrhoea and white tongue. My stomach is always rumbling after eating. Please help.

Thank you.

When I dey vex for showboaters like Okocha you need to watch efficient footballers and know the difference

Big ups to Sunday Ogochukwu Oliseh, strong in tackle, Calm in possession with vision like an eagle, left leg, right leg, shots he dey there

See this break in attack and immediate vision to launch a through ball to his attacker not wasting time. Imagine say na JayJay win ball there, he will first relax and look to disgrace the opponent while our attackers will be there suffering

https://j.gifs.com/D1lyYk.gif


See the same type of ball over the top in the Nations cup final

https://j.gifs.com/VAKXoX.gif

vs Senegal in the 2000 Nations cup we were suffering Oliseh had Malaria, he saw the team down and hopeless with Okocha doing his thing, Oliseh begged to come on from the bench and before long sent a long pass that opened the Senegalese defence and Aghahowa scored (elampiro where were you that day)

Omo that moment madness catch me, See as I run, Even watching the highlight now sef I wan dey cry.

If you watch all these good times of Nigerian football, you can see why some of us cant be bothered to watch the current eyesore we have now

That is why he played for European giants of his time like Ajax, Juve and Dortmund not the likes of Fenerbahce, Frankfurt or Bolton
Correct. I have not been following this session since the time football went on break.
