Diademk07:
I already chimed in rumour sources that confirmed our interest in Kante while Van gaal was here. Only a fool would expect anything other than that when the said man was sacked before the transfer window even opened.

I understand what you trying to say... buh something like "because van Gaal signed Morgan,means he's defo gotta sign Kante"... truly holds no water. That's the point I was hoping you'd see.

Diademk07 just a piece of advice bro, if you don't have concrete piece for any argument stop chipping in your premature premonitions.

It makes the whole point you tryna make less credible.

Diademk07:
Drinkwater was decent but that midfield belonged to Kante.
He was the reason behind their attack as well as the defense. Without him, Mahrez wouldn't have had his best form. Watch Mahrez last season highlight and you would notice that he received the most passes from Kante.

Reason I said you should tone down on the exaggerations.
Kante was their best midfielder no doubt,best in the league last season to me sef,buh he never achieved that feat alone,saying he manned the full midfield all by himself is mere exaggeration in its highest peak.

Diademk07:
The truth is I don't trust Herrera. He's as inconsistent as Fellaini and tends to hide apart from fouling upadan. Apart from having a better technique and intensity than Fellaini, He's not better than Fellaini. At least, we know what to expect from Fellaini. It could be that my expectation of both differs though.

You may not trust him , buh he's still better off in that Midfield compared to Fellaini.
You think he hides,me thinks he gets overrunned cos of his partners in that midfield(take yesterday for example ).
He might not be the best out there,buh I'd rather play him alongside Carrick than Fellaini for goodness sake.

SIRcumalot:
Make city no go kill us for Wednesday.
Best thing na to play our 2nd stringers and act like we no send the carling cup.

City wey never baff... unless Mou has the usual brainfarts with his strategy and selection!

Diademk07:
There was never a time Schneiderlin became a top player. His best form was with a certain Wanyama beside him and as we have realised, Wanyama is obviously the better player as seen by his performance at Spurs.

Kante on other hand, manned the whole Leicester midfield all by himself.His pace, energy, movement, creativity, technique and defensive awareness are several notches above that of Schneiderlin. He was the best CM in the Epl for crying out loud. He's the next best thing close to Roy Keane. There's no way he woulda flopped.

Likewise, Mane who was Southampton best attacking player and always had great performance against the top team. He was several level above his team-mates at southampton. Did you realise that Southampton found it difficult to score goals as soon as he left not until they got Austin?

Take small small dey exaggerate things na, wetin Drinkwater and Co dey do for the midfield, sleeping?

Not taking anything from kante tho.

Lana1:
Daz it. Conte has changed from 4-1-4-1 to 3-4-3 and things seem to be working out for him. Lets see if Mourinho sef go change

If Mou decides not to play Mata, rather than play Pogba as a 10, why can't he deploy a 4-3-3 with Carrick as pivot (or Morgan as DM) with Herrera and Pogba upfront!
Martial,Lingard,Mhiki,Memphis,Young,or Mata out wide ,with any of Ibra or Rash as striker.

NB: Roo and Fella are injured.

tess1:
Don't mind him. His hatred for the guy will not let see any good in the guy.

Lol Diademk07 no dey like anything wey start with "H"

Spy360:
Your manager is too full of himself.

That one is known... buh I just dey observe whether the guy dey blind to change!

Diademk07:
You and this your Herrera sha.. You keep forgetting that everyone was awful yesterday apart from Valencia..

Nope, he really has a point, Herrera might not be world class as you want buh pairing him alongside Carrick with a top form Mata as 10 will offer far much better than ,with a certain Fellaini and Pogba as 10.

weedtaker:
jose go shame people.

Only and only when he squeezes his iron balls and do the needful...

If he continues like this against Rival opponents, e no go pay us at all!

Danhumprey:
It's funny seeing Carrick wasting on the bench with our midfield disjointed, our defence unprotected and our attack blunt, lacking creativity and clear-cut chances. Why did Mourinho asked for Carrick to be given a contract extension if he won't utilize him always?

If Mourinho choose to stubbornly stick to his preferred 4-2-3-1 formation, then pair Pogba with Carrick/Herrera in the pivot and Mata playing the no. 10. Pogba should never near the no.10 position again. He should get accustomed to a new role as a box-to-box midfielder and accept whatever defensive responsibility that comes with the position instead of ogling the no. 10 position.


Pair Carrick with Pogba and see how his potential unleashed. If Carrick can't be guaranteed to start all games, play him in the most important, most win games.


Is that too hard?

Mourinho should put it in his mind first and foremost that the French Izaga can never in 20 life times match that 89 milla price tag.
He should stop pushing the motherfucka to do stints that ain't beneficial to our midfield..

Take yesterday's game, we only had just one manageable single midfielder vs Chelshit... Poorgba disappeared, Fellaini went to the market.

If I see this kinda line up again with that foolish boy as our 10, then I'd be rest assured Mou ll get the boot sooner than later,cos we are going nowhere with this woeful displays.

@Landinfo,Yesterday Mou had a world class offensive Strategy indeed,with Carrick, Mata, Mihki, and Martial on the bench!

nyabinghi:
taa, make mourinho go coach sunderland make we see him ingenuity, the fraud nearly relegated chelsea last season. una go soon cry now say na rooney dey cause make players revolt against am. Jose fraudinho

Ok.

Oasis007:
Nah!

He's as fit as Schweinsteiger and Mkhitaryan!

Then Mou must be silly!!!

AdisaOwala:
I am dissapointed with the result....the scoreline is embarrassing no doubt but a loss to a potential contender for the title isn't the end of the world . There were seasons when we lost away matches vs Top sides and still managed to win the league.


Mourihno has to start using sense to park the bus - we cannot continue to nullify our attack ourselves by benching inform players simply because one uber useless, overhyped langalanga with a very poor attitude from France is tactically undisciplined and unwilling to play to instructions.

Our manager has some big decisions to make as regards Pogba & Ibrahimovic - he dropped Rooney & shouldn't be afraid "kick some more arses" as a wake-up call to the underperforming players in the squad!

Can he?...

Oasis007:


Like seriously! We should be expecting Smalling - Blind Partnership against Man City on Wednesday!

They had better start shopping for a new CB.

Just one question that has been eluding my mind since, is Luke injured?

Spy360:
Jose would be sacked by Christmas

The fans would turn against him...

Maybe you should consider Wenger. His contract ends in June.

Taaar! Si ebea puo...

Anam achikwanu? ...

Oasis007:
"He (Bailly) is injured and I am afraid he is badly injured. In his knee, in the ligament area. He feels it - is really bad."


- Jose Mourinho

We don enter am

Oasis007:


What else remain for the Stats to say?!

that we shoulda won na

Lana1:
Lmao. O ma se indeed.
Moyes kor, Moyinsola ni.

Moyes da Genius... how could we sack that kinda rare breed of a gaffer?

nyabinghi:
your mourinho lost 3 games in a row, got beaten at OT by city, stoke got their first point at OT under your fraud of a gaffer, chelsea raped united 4 0 under the same fraud. Continue to sing baa baa black sheep have you any wool.

My mourinho indeed!!!

Hope you are enjoying your Genius Moyes at Sunderland, he's doing a great job,a very phenomenal job!!!

larride:
Lol.. Baddest guy, I sight you.

Thanks though

Lol... No wahala bro!!!

nyabinghi:
aburo reason with sense. Howmany players did he sign, was he hammered 4 0, did he park the bus. he is struggling in sunderland we know but let your god go to sunderland and waste their money there.

If Jose is a terrible manager by ur standards,and you still wish Moyes for Man Utd then O ma sè o!!!

Egbon, e ma binu, but just keep kwayet!!!

chrisley024:
Weed at work.

That old man don crase...it's not weed this time around!

weedtaker:
not like the one he wants us to get is doing pretty well nowadays, pep has gone 5games without a victory, his worst run in seven years. abeg make i go sleep, man city next

Lol....all man dey vex, I blame mourinho sha.

Lincolnn2:
And yes, fucck you Louis van Gaal! Didn't we pay you off to leave the club alone? Why are you still hiding behind Mourinho, making him act stubborn and clueless?


Yeah! Fucck you Diademk07! I blame Van Gaal for not wanting to leave Mourinho alone.

you don mad lobatan! !!!!

Lincolnn2:
Mourinho, if you've got the balls, bench Ibra and play Rashford upfront. We didn't employed you to come and make another 'Welbeck' out of Rashford!
If you can't play Rashford as a and instead chose Ibra to start, then utilize Rashford as an impact sub!


And for fucck's sake, Pogba should never near the no. 10 position ever.

Reveal yourself mate

larride:
This loss is squarely on Mourinho head. I said it after the Liverpool game that Pogba is very useless playing behind the striker, I don't think he did anything meaningful when he went to partner Herrera at the pivot, dude was too lazy to even mark his opponent, always jogging around. The earlier Mourinho comes to term that Pogba needs to sit on the bench the better for him.

You want to play attacking football and you left Martial, Mata, Mihki, Carrick out of your first 11, hell you drop your best LB at home and bring fuc.king Rojo and you expect any miracles. Mourinho better start sorting things out or he gets booted out.

Shout out to Smalling, he made sure the game was over before it even started. January cannot come soon enough.

#GGMU

You be correct guy .
If you are in Lagos, enter ICM on Wednesday and buy any drink you like!!!

I'll pay with my October allawee

Oasis007:



But..... Stats-wise we outplayed Chelsea, just unlucky to convert the slim chances we got!

LOL!

With this, it's then obvious that stats don't tell the full story.

nyabinghi:
Herrera ko, Heerenveen ni, Man utd going the way of liverpool. United lost it the day they hurriedly sacked moyes.

Egbon Troll with sense na.

Lana1:
Go back and read my reply to eph12. Some of these top managers were available as at last december when we were playing rubbish. Abeg make we just leave am lai dat.
I don talk say i no wan dey wail bcoz of Mourinho.

Na him make I say make you stop to dey wail na.

Not all of us were in support of him being named manager, buh we still went ahead to respect the club's decision and bid him well.

Not like some plastic fans that switched allegiance cos of having him as our manager.


If at all ...blame the clueless folks running the club.

afrodoc2:
Modric/Kroos means Modric or Kroos NOT Modric and Kroos.

No vex, my blood dey hot ni
