Still waiting for good team play from our attackers under Rangnick

Ronaldo and Bruno hmmm

elampiro:
But the police questioned the girl before they arrested Greenwood. Why does it look like you are trying to create the impression that should Greenwood be acquitted, it would not be that he was innocent, but that the law was weak. Pictures and audio posted to the net alone do not make someone guilty. It still remains a one-sided account. What if also the girl had threatened him that should he walk away she would ruin his career. There are many what if ...what if ..and what if.

My thinking is that if it was a very serious rape case, Greenwood will not have been released even on bail. This is the mitigating factor I was talking about that people did not understand.

Murder suspect have been released on bail, is it rape suspect that can't be released on bail?

Itsrm:
Before we start making it about me, let's go back to where we started from. Is the audio in itself sufficient to nail him? Can lawyers find any loophole?

Do you have answers to the above?

You should have said you hope Greenwood didn't do all these things he is accused of and his lawyer is able to prove that he's being framed

Itsrm:
That's what lawyers are paid to do.

I'm asking why YOU want that

Itsrm:
If its just an audio, is there a way to absolutely prove the voice is his? I'm just thinking maybe it's a loophole his lawyers can exploit.

Why do you want lawyers to exploit any loophole?

I loved the control I saw against West Ham, I hope we can build on that. More energy, more running, more pressing, better quality passes

BikeMan:
After signing only Lukaku? Fear God now!

Still spent more for a lukaka

BikeMan:
Again, how can this be your hope after those 3 signings?

Because chelshit spent more?

BikeMan:
Well renewed

Cry more

Expert17:
I swear

They didn't show the replay self ......we muvvvee

Abi watin concern me

Looks like we've renewed VAR subscription. Thank you Rangnick

we have some of the worst trolls on this thread

patrickmuf:
LOL...

I think our collapse at Villa Park was fresh in the mind of RR thus he had to make that sub...Next time, he should load the midfield instead of sunning in a defender...

That guy has something against loading the midfield

olabode89:
Them better sell am for summer.

I mean if he can't get in when the team is bad, is it now when they pick form? He has to leave

VDB bench go long sha

finished club

VDB is in big trouble

patrickmuf:
The eights should be Bruno and VDB and the holding six should be one of Fred, McTom or Matic...

You think that guy will start DVB?

At a point, I saw Bruno and Fred pressing forward LMAO. Leaving just Matic in the midfield. I'm not sure what the attackers were doing sef. They should just request to exit all competitions and start afresh. Ole killed this club

patrickmuf:
If we can't press up front, isn't it sensible to remain compact in the midfield and defense rather than risk recovering the ball up front only to be exposed defensively?

Another mistake over the weekend was RR's poor reading of the game hence delayed subs...Gerrard in a bid to exert more control and attacking poor brought in ball players in the midfield and attack but RR didn't respond and on time. Cavani should have been replaced by VDB while Lingard come in for Elanga with Greenwood moved up front. With VDB and Lingard (especially) you are sure of more pressing and control in the midfield...We totally surrendered possession to Villa after the hour mark or thereabout which left me wondering what the control RR talks about so often in his pressers is all about...

I was also expecting RR to take off Cavani and bring in VDB. Lingard has some energy, bring him too for Elanga. Looks like RR became lost and confused

patrickmuf:
Telles has a better cross in him than Shaw and with him, you are sure of 2-3 good crosses per game. One thing is certain, not every good cross leads to a goal...I have no qualms with Shaw as he has 8t in him but AWB is not just it...

I am not judging our players using whatever happened during Ole's reign but from when Rangnick took over and even then, RR opted for a strange 4-2-2-2 that had the whole team struggling. I just hope he reverts to a proper 4-2-3-1 that has 2 DMs or a DM and CM who can help us retain possession. The idea of Fred pressing forward especially when he is paired with Matic is one tweak that is not sustainable as Matic just doesn't have the legs to over when we are attacked through the middle and Fred is out of position.

I rather have us play 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 where our full backs have the license to bomb forward and we have our wing men tucking in to see us have more bodies in the box...

I think Fred is pressing forward because our attackers don't have it in them., they can't press, they can't close down passing channels, they won't pass/create chances for each other. This is a big problem

patrickmuf:
You asked a question and I explained what I observed to you and now you're back with another question as if you didn't see some of those games to know that Shaw and AWB were preferred and even when Telles and Dalot played, we opted for 4 2 2 2 which saw the whole team struggling...We only reverted to 4 2 3 1 in the Fa Cup game and the game on Saturday and in those games, for some reason, Rangnick rather instructed Fred to press forward meaning Dalot can't bomb forward as usual as we will be open to counters...Maybe you should go back and watch our game again to understand my earlier reply...

The essence of 4 2 3 1 or 4 3 3 is to give the full backs the license to bomb forward while the wingers play as inverted forwards but here, we rather see Fred pressing high up the pitch meaning Dalot has to be cautious in his offensive play.

Shaw has crosses in him. In fact, he crossed to Ronaldo recently that Ronaldo made a mess of. For the same tactical reason, or lack of tactics, Shaw has not been doing enough of that. That's the same excuse you're making for Telles now.

But my post was not particularly about last match. I'm still waiting for the crosses, assists and goals that was promised if Shaw and AWB were benched for Dalot and Telles.

And yes I understand your point, and you should understand mine too. We were promised crosses, and that's it. Last match was not the only match they have played

patrickmuf:
Telles sent in some very good crosses yesterday one of which resulted in a shot from Greenwood which Martinez did well to save.

Dalot not bombing forward looks like a tactical decision because I noticed that Fred was instead given the license to press forward and that contributed to our midfield being dominated because Fred couldn't fall back into position as quickly as Aston Villa attacked thus Matic was left isolated most times.

Oh and the game before? and the one before that? How many crosses, assists, goals from both? Or its now tactical decisions?

How is that myth about Telles and Dalot supplying crosses and assists coming?

Expert17:
Elanga was beating his man.

But the man that was helping/carrying Haaland according to Nairaland Analyst can't beat one single player

It's an eyesore

Ahh?!? We're in trouble

Useless fraud

A big fraud. How did that lie even escape the pit of hell?

Expert17:
The idiot is on 350k playing like Bebe.

Biggest scam in football history

The same league you have greenwood gliding past players, Sancho can't beat his man. And this guy came with a very long CV. Can clubs just boycott that useless burndesliga?

Players were already tired at 70 minutes. Not even tired because they were playing anything that made sense o, just tired on their own

Expert17:

Abeg shey you know who did this to us? Help me mention names abeg

I know nothing about his appointment. I was rooting for Conte o. We have entered one chance!

You shouldn't have accepted that decision to ignore conte o
