Jodera: If you check the reason why I initially quoted you (my first quote to you today), it's because you claim he's limited in midfield and not pacy in wings.
I never had issues on your post with injuries or selling him. What I'm against is you denying his talent saying he can't build up or press or sort or doesn't suit our system.
C'mon!!!
If arsenal wants to sell because they suspect he's our next doctor as Blueray says, fine and good especially now that he's still high in value.
But if it's about Skillset or that he has regressed, that's what I'm against. And certainly not against Viera who has shown his skillset is mainly for counter attacking team.
But we watch. In as much as we like him, his injury is a concern and I admit it too. Keeping or selling him depends on the club and I won't agitate if he leaves cus it's understandable, but comparing him with Viera and even making up thesis to support his claims led to all these back and forth. |

What you do not understand is that the boy is coming back from a very difficult injury, after 2 years of managing a groin issue he finally got surgery and while still trying to come out from that he got a knee injury. I remember reading somewhere that even his doctor abi physiotherapist told the team not to rush him too. The medical team and the coach are taking their time and he's improving gradually, but you choose not to see it that way. You see him as a finished goods that have regressed so bad and needs change. |

Jodera: I said it... Only Fulham.
Lol.
But what made ESR regressed? Did he even have his match fitness yet or you don't know he's still not sharp.
ESR against Luton should show you he still got it but you're still looking at him from 3 seasons ago.
And nobody is stuck in the past here. Everybody knows ESR needs match rhythm to get his form back. [s]The Viera you're even placing side by side with him never even do anything consistent for this team sef[/s] No loud that Viera talk abeg, person get headache for front seat.. |

mostob: Bring the stat. I'm open for debate. Go and bring their stats here and let's see. I don't do stats bro, I watch football and analyze all expect of the game, from the formation and system the team played down to the way each player execute theirs not just stats and figures. ESR has the player to disturb the defense and have a good vision too, he just needs regular play time to show up again. This season between the times he played and the times Viera played, Baba, he had more impact than Viera. I dey watch ball no be stats Snr |

Smith had more impact in the minutes he played than Viera did, so I don't get where this your argument is coming from. |

mostob: What Vieira lacks in physicality, he makes it up with technicality. I think you're using that season to judge ESR. That is why you are not getting the point.
ESR ain't fast bro... we saw that against Villa. ESR have that technical ability too, both weren't rushed this season so their injury can be managed and contained. And bruh ESR has pace, I followed that boy from his Hale end days, he has pacemore than Saka sef. |

daveP: That one dey too sha but he's in his prime sha He's 29 and Arsenal focus on youth and age, so I don't think anyone from the team will still consider his signing when he hits 30 |

mostob: You're still judging ESR based on his exploits three seasons ago, that's what you're still holding on to. When both were available, Vieira usually gets the nod ahead of ESR, that should tell you something.
ESR has regressed badly which is what you are not considering here. His incessant injuries didn't help matter too. The few times he was subbed on this season, he disappointed. Three years ago when he was still hot, this argument wouldn't happen. But since last season that both have been together in that team, with what they have both shown, Vieira will always get the nod. I gently disagree with you on that bro, |

daveP: What aspect of Ozil's game do you need Odegaard to adopt next season?
And what part of Odegaard's game did you feel Ozil should have used during his spell with usm I love Ozil, but odegaard is gradually getting there abi he's there already. Ozil can't run and press like Odegaard but he's developing that crazy vision of Ozil. |

Jodera: Lol.... Omorr, we are talking about ESR here and you're saying this thing?
Someone that's good at buildups, one touch and move play. Someone that's good at pressing (at least our match against Luton where he was even half fit yet won Motm should give you a pointer). He's good at beating the press is whom you're saying all these bolded?
Anyways, I still dey wait for this setup to suit Viera sha. God keep us Alive to see it I'm beginning to wonder if he watch ESR from his early days down to even last Sunday match. How can he say ESR doesn't drop and help in build up. Well every man get his opinion shaa |

mostob: And how is that harsh? In another system, ESR will get the nod. It is simple. The current system doesn't suit him. I was clear enough. Na you wan turn this to Vieira vs ESR. ESR is a final third specialist who will get you goals. He is not someone that would drop deep and help with buildup. His positioning and late runs into the box is quote alright but in situations where we need numbers in midfield to beat the press, he is limited. Where do you think he should play then? ESR drops when he needs to bro. You are making the comparison but trying to convince yourself that you're not. ESR has pace, and he he's someone that's always ready to help this team however way he can. I think he's more suited to play that odegaard role more than Viera but what do I know... He has the physicality and sharpness that Viera lacks. |

BlueRayDick: Abeg if argument Dey hungry u, go look for who to argue endlessly with for front.
Someone ask which players do we want the club to sell; I listed my own choice . He requested for reasons and why listed ESR and I provided reasons to him which was fine by him. You are the one that started argument about Viera and what not while questioning my personal opinion .
Now u are making it seem as if I was the one arguing with u over ur personal opinion.  |

BlueRayDick: You are sure bawo ?😳 Even the coach and his medical team won’t be sure ESR won’t get injured again.
A player that has consistently gotten injured with various injuries ranging from Shoulder injury, groin injury , hamstring injury ,knee injury , ankle injury , etc over the last 5 years …. That’s the player u are vouching for that his injury concern will not be a problem next year ?
Baba , na so Diaby spend 10 years for Arsenal and didn’t play up to 200 games o. His main injury concern was the groin problem which have been taken care of, na to manage him properly. Hmm BRD(shey u no get problem with the initials for ya Monika?) It's really hard defending his injury issues but I just love the boy and wish him to stay. His injury shouldn't be much of a problem again |

Jodera: Hopefully ooo. Fingers crossed cos I too like the boy.
But I believe if good money comes, they'll sell him this one that he's listed on our transfer list Transfer speculations are normal, I can remember Belerin being associated with Barca and moving from arsenal right from his first season down to the season he finally left, same with Bernardo silver at man city. But if the should sell him, then we will need a better upgrade. |

Jodera: Lol, I think you're misunderstanding him too.
He's bringing in Kdb to just say that he might be like Kdb in the future so we shouldn't discard him. Perhaps he saying he has Kdb-like attributes or ceiling He might be right or wrong but then nobody knows the future.
But what I do know is that we need players PRESENTLY to carry us to that next level. We no need to really dey carry players again You see Viera and Smith, they both have a place in Arteta's plan if you ask me. They are versatile and tactical players. And I'm sure ESR injury concern won't be a problem next year like the previous years. |

I think spy is right with what he said too. I wouldn't want to see ESR leave but if the club thinks it's the right move for both him and the team then so be it. But there's no one who really watched him on his better days that won't mention KDB while talking about him. Spy didn't say he's KDB but what I think he meant to say or tried to pass across with his message is that the boy have better potentials like that of KDB (which is actually true). The reason why he was out injured for most of the time was because of his groin injury, he was advised to go for surgery last season and then he's gradually being integrated back to the squad since full recovery and then he got a knee injury. His major setback years back was his constant groin injury which have been taken care of. He just need a full preseason with the boys and I believe he will be back, he's our #10 for a reason(though I would really love to see odegaard wear the #10) |

We were actually waiting for it to happen with our phones and gadgets in hand to type away our sorrows in you guys thread. WE GO AGAIN NEXT SEASEON club  As long as my team couldn't compete for the EPL even before we knew the league have started, we have every reason to drag Arsenal. As a chelshit fan we're waiting for Man utd to loose fa cup so we can show arsenal how to PLAY IN EUROPEAN COMPETITION.  As a man U fan we're hoping to win man city to play in EUROPEAN COMPETITION and pray we don't go out in the group stage again.  Non.since Arsenal fans with delulu  Don't near my mention or we will attack you till Man City or Man U stop us. We're hosting a parade for Arsenal loosing like loosers they're. Sign out....... |

Wenger and Sol came out too and said Arsenal will win it. Arsenal even trimmed all the trees around the stadium. The trolling go hit hard eh.. Arsenal didn't request for the EPL trophy, the fireworks, the victory stage and medals to be in our home, it's the league's rule. And there's a possibility that they can win the league so the preparation around the stadium is understandable. Trolling or not it is what should be done. |
