I love Rashford from the first time I saw him play which was against Arsenal. Top top talent, he just needs to be consistent and I believe the Arsenal family, mentality and togetherness can help him achieve more if he makes the switch. Na just to follow 4 preseason and he will be hot and banging when the season begins.

Jodera:

Lol...
Shebi na the same superstition give me hope say anybody wey win Porto dey reach final .

Anyways, I was rooting for Tottenham to win/draw Man City but I just realized that they're playing Man City on the last day of the season. I just weak cos no hope.

From history when we're in this position (ie fighting for league and hoping for them to do us a favour), they gladly always fall our hands. Expectedly.

I thought when they'll be playing Man City, they'll be fighting for top 4, but I realized that on that day, they might certainly not be fighting for anything

Man city's last match na westham not shitty spurs. Shitty spurs last night na Sheffield.

iamoyindamola:
Will arsenal be in the same position if we were stuck with ramsdale?

I will say yes, raya have committed same errors as ramsdale if not more than

Even though Raya makes mistakes, he's better under pressure than Ramsdale.

Akinbahm:


When a striker is in midfield, we call him SS (supporting striker) abi what do we call him?

I dey always enjoy your takes, na comic relief for person wey get stressful day.

Strikers that excelled in midfield that got known as SS please?

Enyimbafc:
Brighton has so many injured players.

Yeah I know, but do you believe in miracles?

Spy360:

You can not call a striker playing upfront false. That's where he is expected to be.

Kane is a striker saying he is a false 9 is stupid. Don't do that. It's stupid.

When a fullback is in midfield we say he is inverted. If he is a midfielder we don't say he is inverted.

When a goalkeeper uses his feet, we can him sweeper keeper. When a defender does that we don't call him sweeper keeper because he is just a sweeper.

When a striker is a 9, you don't call him false. Wow! That's stupid. We call him striker. If it's a midfielder we see there then we say he is a false 9.

That's the idea. Every other thing you said about creating chances for others is correct.

I agree with you on this, some might say we're wrong but this is a fact(or whatever) I know about football. Because a recognized striker drops deep to help the team doesn't make him a false nine(they should probably find another word to replace that "false). Kane that I know of only started dropping and helping his teammates during the later days of his Tottenham days. Henry at some point started dropping to help his teammates too, we shouldn't call them false nine. RVP was amazing in that aspect too but he wasn't a FALSE nine, he was a complete nine with a desire to help everyone. Anyways what do I know, I'm just a fan who loves watching and playing football.

iamoyindamola:
Whatever happens tonight with Brighton against city will have little impact
We are in control of our own destiny
Our match against spuds is the real deal
We win we have 75% chance of the league
We draw it's out of our hand
We lose we are out

It's not in our hand boss, city have 2 outstanding and 4 points below us. They need to draw at least one match for us to be in control.

Jodera:
abeg no talk this thing again.

Anything less than a win from now till season end is futile. Which one be 4 points no go bad?

E shock you? 😲 😂

Everton!, I asked for a draw and you delivered a win
Next stop American Express Stadium tomorrow.

daveP:


He's our best presser. No doubt. Plus as Captain, his detailing others who to close down is superb. But it doesn't work for us this UCL Ko stages sha. If you observed. Porto and Bayern, two teams set up to stop our press. Very annoying.

Ashey Odegaard has been giving that kine assists from deep to Martinelli sha. Wow. I keep saying the best of Nelli is when he's released from halfway line. Then nobody can stop him or tackle him and it is 9/10 times to be a goal.

Partey
Jorginho
Odegaard


These 3 have given deep assists to Nelli and he buried them. While same can't be really said for Saka(he kinda loves the dribbling and deceiving players until the doubling up and tiredness took over)

It's a risk I'm willing to take sha. Odegaard to Nelli's wing. Let's see how crazy that will be😀

Abeg lets not go there Biko. It won't only affect the entire team, it will affect us as fans too. That's a no no.

Talking about a 9 that will fit our system, have anyone seen the Victor guy from sporting, like seen him play and not some YouTube videos?. I think Arteta will prefer him over the other names I'm seeing cus of his work rate.

Jodera:
It's tiring to be honest.
This is the first time in 4yrs I've been wailing over Saka CONSISTENTLY.

He needs to rest and properly heal. Man is too good to be playing like this.

Arteta needs to help him abeg

It's clear to everyone how dropped in form Saka is right now, but I think it will be too experimental dropping him on the bench during this run-in. His form dropped and noticable but he still have that ability to produce a magical moment. Even he himself acknowledge the fact that his level dropped, and Arteta have mentioned it too, they know but just scared of what will happen if he doesn't play. Arteta just don't trust Nelson enough and he needs to leave this summer.

That midfield!!!!! Abeg Make Dem no Bleep up

iamoyindamola:

I thought jodera said he's not a midfielder
Why do we want him in midfield again
🤣🤣🤣

You too like violence good morning

BlueRayDick:


Iamoyindamola has recommended De Zerbi and Girona coach .

De Zerbi aside, when he mentioned Girona coach, laugh wan kill me. I just jejely avoided the post make I no even talk about am.

folake4u:


I know oh. We don already know our fate.

Na hating on ManUtd, Arsenal and the rest be our new tactics now.

An Arsenal loss? You'd find me 30mins early.

Spy360:

I won't say anything. If I say anything I will cause fight.

Fkhalifa:

Why didn't you spend and give ebening time too?

During Emery's time the transfer market wasn't this high. In all this back and forth argument, what I know is that Arteta is not leaving Arsenal at the end of season, yes he fxcks up but sometimes the players have to share the blame and not the coach. Would we be here with all these write ups if Arsenal made use of the chances vs Villa at first half?, Would we have crashed out if white had scored that 2nd goal instead of blast at Neur?, What if Gabriel, Saliba and Raya maintained composure at the back, would we have conceded those kind of goals. Some days you guys are compliment Teta for his in-game management and how he has improved greatly on that, and other days we slaughter him here for same. Mistakes are part of the game, losses happen from time to time cus you can't always win, but getting pessimistic and emotional after each loss isn't really my thing.

Roland17:


Y'all need to stop already.

Ebening took a bunch of clowns to the UEL final in 18 months as head coach. We are going into year 5, Arteta has never gotten to the Semi-final of any European competition despite being favored in all of them. Let him replicate some of these things first.

What are we doing here sef?

Why didn't emery take us to the UCL?. What's UEL final if you didn't get the trophy?. Wenger played the final too with our finest squad and lost

Roland17:


Klopp was hired in 2015, Liverpool won the UCL in 18/19 (3 years) and the EPL during the 19/20 season (4 years).

He also won World's best coach for consecutive seasons.

So where is the lie or typo?

Ok yes I counted the years instead of the seasons, my bad. But but Klopp was already an elite UCL and bundesliga proven manager while Arteta is is......... And they still had patience with an experienced coach for 3 years but somehow Arsenal shouldn't have patience with Arteta even as his progress is shown viable to all.

Roland17:


So, we can agree these are not hypothetical and theories but facts?

the only fact is see here is the transfer amount you quoted which isn't even specific and accurate.

Roland17:


Dayo abeg stop. If anything, we have helped his career big time with this OJT (On the job training) privilege he is enjoying. In 3 years after hire, Klopp won the EPL and UCL. Question, will Bayern fire Arteta if he went 17 competitions with 1 trophy?

na typo be this?. How may competitions did Klopp feature in from 2015-2019 when he won his first?.

Roland17:


Spent nearly 700M is hypothetical?

Has had 9 transfer windows is hypothetical?

Broke transfer records is hypothetical?

Making Havertz the highest paid Arsenal player is hypothetical?

If he isn't promising to the kreonkes and helping in recovering the funds by 2nd league finish and qualifying for ucl do you think they wouldn't be shouting and wailing more than us fans.

Every now and then transfer records are broken because transfer fees keep going up.

Isn't Havertz a player he isn't as bad as we make him look like when Teta plays him in CF (na just say even de Arteta get problem for head)

[quote author=Roland17 post=129528537]

Arteta may as well quit coaching until Pep retires.

He flops in the EFL----Blame Pep
He flops in the FA------Blame Pep
He flops in the EPL----Blame Pep
He flops in the UEL-----Blame Pep
He flops in the UCL----Blame Pep

Don't you guys get tired of the cuddling?

I think you're quoting the wrong person here Boss. I don't blame pep for Teta's mistakes, matter of fact I don't blame anyone for another's mistake. What I really don't agree on is sacking Teta, who for to come exactly?

An elite and experienced Klopp was appointed in 2015 and got his first trophy in 2019 and Liverpool stood with him all through those years. But Arsenal.........

Roland17:


The fact that you are seeking equivalence with another coach without addressing facts presented to you as evidence of Arteta's failure is all I need.

Which facts was presented please, seems really skipped that or there wasn't any fact but theories and hypothesis.

Roland17:


I say this all the time

Ebening achieved 5th place in the EPL with a UEL final appearance with those clowns. When Arteta dared using those set of clowns, we were nearly relegated and finished 8th for consecutive seasons.

Same players he couldn't win the UEL against Chelsea with dispist playing so well in the first half are the same set Teta won the fa cup with against same Chelsea. Same players that he used to drag us between 10th and 11th before he was sacked Teta finished with on 8 position.
