My friend speak on 102 points that Conte won Italian league with and stop this megedefegede.

EPL all-time record is 95 points. What kind of league allows you to garner 102 points? That is 34 wins out of 38 games!

you are forgetting that conte also won serie A with an unbeaten record in modern day football

I know that I should be happy that we won the league, but the thing is that it does not excite me. My target is the UCL.
If Conte know wetin go better for am, make em sell Costa immediately the transfer market opens. I am tired of watching that man.

In conclusion, i say, bring on Barcelona, bring on bayern, bring on Madrid!!!!

raumdeuter:
I just heard the same mediocre Son Heung Min from Leverkusen and Hamburg won the premier league player of the month again

making it twice this season alone.

Bundesliga reject pissing on the EPL

how many has the burndesleaguedown best player won?

airmark:
Anelka joined arsenal 1 month to his 18th birthday, with just 1 league goal and no european goal in his boots. That 500k was even too much for him. Taye taiwo was bought 100k by marseille in 2005. I dont know how anelka at 18 was of same quality with mbappe who has 14 league and 6 ucl goals now. Anelka at 19 in his first season at arsenal played 26 league matches and scored just 6 goals. They are worlds apart at 18 years bro. Everything in life is a risk, we bought an epl-tested torres for 50m and most of us are not satisfied with what he delivered. Shevy is also another flop, a ucl winner, best striker then. Most of us have forgotten kezman, belharouz, zhirkhov, cos they all flopped despite not showing anything close to what this youngie is showing before they were bought. Eduardo was bought by arsenal and got crippled. So Mbappe's will not be the first and the last risk. When barca was bombarding messi with artificial growth hormones, they had the foresight. Thats why i will even prefer he develops under a frenchman, zidane, who can communicate and nurture him well. Marcelo who replaced carlos 10 years ago, has grown to serve madrid like no other foreign defender did. Mbappe, under a good ex-footballer/coach will blossom.

Risks are always calculated before being taken in business. In this case, for £80m, the risk is not worth taking.

Morata wants to see what happens with Chelsea
- there is a choice to be made between Romelu
Lukaku and Morata, the first one preferred by
the club and the second by Antonio Conte. I
think Morata will suit Chelsea much better. His
movement, the knowledge of the coach, his
intelligence would suit the London outfit

Chelsea head coach Antonio Conte thinks the strength of the Premier League makes it difficult to mount a combined domestic and European challenge. The Italian is bidding to take the Blues to a league and FA Cup double in his first season at Stamford Bridge, but has not had European football to contend with. Chelsea, who play Middlesbrough on Monday, need six points to win the title and could secure it before second-placed Tottenham next play after Spurs' 1-0 loss at West Ham on Friday night. Former Italy and Juventus boss Conte believes the competitive nature of the English top flight impacts on continental competition and the England team. Chelsea vs M'boro May 8, 2017, 7:00pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass Conte said: "This league is very difficult. It's strong. It's a totally different to the Italian or Spanish leagues. "Every single game you must fight a lot and, I think, also, for this reason, it's not easy to arrive at the end of a European competition. "Also for the national team, it's very difficult to try and do very well in the World Cup or the Euros because you arrive at the end of the season and the players are tired. "Every game is very tough, every game you must put all yourself in the game. "If you think you're playing for a team who is playing at the medium level, you're actually preparing for a defeat.

Nihilist:
When you have the likes of that wasteful Costa upfront, how are you going to convert chances?

Before today's game, Costa had had 16 big chances, defined by opta as 'A situation where a player should reasonably be expected to score usually in a one-on-one scenario'

He freaking Missed 10 of them.

Not surprised.

Ibime:
Everytime.

Na una wey dribbling dey trip.

Goals, assists and creativity is the koko for me.

The point of dribbling is to shift your man and make the pass. DeBruyne never fails to do that. Hazard will do it 3 times without producing the final pass. DeBruyne is way more dangerous a footballer.

yet, hazard still creates a great number of chances. In 2013/2014 season, hazard created the highest number of chances in Europe's top five league ahead of di maria. In 2014/2015 season, he came second to Dimitri Payet. If you check his chances created this season, you will still see that he has a good number. How then has he not been playing the final passes?

raumdeuter:
Popularity contests. Some players are polling booth celebrities whose relevance is only in the ballot paper. Ask why didnt Alexis make it

a nomination is not a popularity contest, why didn't he get at least a nomination in this two seasons?

Wait, i thought you are the one who uses awards to make argument for iniesta?

raumdeuter:
yes. This season that kdb is playing deeper he still has 5 goals and 17 assists in the league alone and he's not even the first choice penalty taker

Last season 7 goals 9 assist In the league alone despite missing almost 2 months injured

i know of only 15 League assists.

But, why was he not nominated for the best player award or at least make the team of the Season?

Aguero has more than 30 games he played as a lone striker under pellegrini.

Ibime and raumdeuter

Having watched KDB play two full seasons in the epl, can you still place him above hazard in your players ranking?

If manu wins the Europa..what happens to the fourth spot..they get bumped down to the Europa don't they?

How qualification for English teams may
change were United to win the UEL:
If Man Utd win the UEL and finish in the
top four of the Premier League, the top
four PL teams will all qualify for the UCL
group stage unless the 2016/17
UCL winners fail to qualify for the group
stage via their domestic championship
finishing position. Then Man Utd, as UEL
winners, would go into the UCL play-off
round stage.
If Man Utd win the UEL and finish outside
the top four of the Premier League, the
top three PL teams will qualify for the UCL
group stage, the fourth-placed team will
qualify for the UCL play-off round and
Man Utd will qualify for the UCL group
stage unless the 2016/17 UEFA Champions
League winners fail to qualify for the
group stage via their domestic
championship finishing position. Then Man
Utd would go into the UCL play-off round.
If Man Utd win the UEL their place in the
UEL third qualifying round for winning the
EFL Cup would go to the next-highest
ranked team not qualified for UEFA
competitions in the Premier League.

MetaHuman:
I think so too.. He is ready to buy every star in europe for next season.

Those player he is going after will really boost manyoo chance next season.
I hope they qualify for champions league so england can have better representation.

I wish it could be chelsea, liverpool, mancity and man u

it will be the best representation England will have.
If Manchester United wins the europa, then England will have 5 representatives for the UCL

Nihilist:
There's only one paper saying that shït, and it's the S*n.

Never ever believe the Sun bro.

I think Conte definitely had a strong input into recruitment, he's just been unlucky. Naingollan and Morata have both publicly stated that Conte personally called them to say he wanted them - Naingollan didn't want to come, and Madrid didn't want to sell.

A coach that doesn't have freedom to sign his own players won't be personally contacting players he wants to sign...at least I don't think so.

are you saying that conte is the one who wants to sign Lukaku?

Nihilist:
You don start again abi?

i think it will be true since the papers are saying the same thing.

Ibime:
Don't be sure of that. Emenalo is a powerful man.

As I understand it, the Lukaku vs Morata argument is a tussle between Emenalo and Conte.

Michy was also signed for Emenalo which is why Conte has been sidelining him.

if this is true, then we are still in square one.

Eden will still probably be a little frustrated at times, but he is learning quickly that you just take your marker to where he doesn’t want to be. You also ensure he is booked early on if you can, so if you can get fouled at pace if possible at the start, as I mentioned just a few weeks ago, it makes things easier. When the marker is booked he can’t get as close, can’t hold your shirt or block to the same level. At the game it was clear that Eden was probably fouled up to 50 times, no exaggeration I promise you, but because he was being held or blocked when the ball was 60 or 70 yards away, the officials (and the TV cameras) never caught it. He must constantly tell the referee and crucially the assistant referees to be aware of this. When they are alerted to it, they do sometimes act on it.

I thank God say na conte dey sign. He will sign what he thinks is best for his team.

Interesting to read.

KANE: The bottom corner for me is my favourite. People go mad for top corner goals when they look beautiful and come off the crossbar to go in but I was taught as a kid that low and hard is difficult for a goalkeeper and that's what I try and do. I don't think there have been many goals in my career, especially from the edge of the box that end up going into the top corner and if they do, they are probably miss hit because I'm aiming for the bottom.
No wonder em finish courtois that year.

raumdeuter:
Its obvious Aguero has declined? Are you serious Have you not been on this same thread when people wanted to lynch me for suggesting that?

i have seen the arguments. The thing is that you wanted to make it look like he has always been average and have nothing in his game aside goals. But, aguero has always had that link up play and ability to take on a defender and score.
The fact is that aguero has missed chances that he would normally not miss in the past and now finds it difficult to take on defenders and score like before.

raumdeuter:
Well done

No, it is obvious for anyone to see.

FPL wetin consain me with local champion

lol

Man city could not win relegation threatened Middlesbrough in two attempts.

Gueye is Gana. Idrissa Gana Gueye.
Anyway, Gana must go!

yes. Thanks.

raumdeuter:
I tire o.

I want Arsenal to win though maybe Sanchez score 2 Alli score 1

for your fpl or to troll hazard?

Aguero has definitely dropped, but he is still top class. He has not lost his link up play.

nateevs:
Hehehe. Gueye and Gana are the same person. His real name is Idrissa Gueye.

okay. Thanks. I come dey wonder.
