Our game today against Villa was for the youngsters and they delivered.

Miazga looks assured. His distribution, tackles and reading of the game are all spot on. I was impressed really. RLC on the other hand seems to be maturing game after game. His confidence has taking a good lift, the lad no doubt is enjoying his new role.

Pato? Well, we were here when he scored. His movements on and off the ball are still sharp. He'd only have to work on his fitness, he got muscled off the ball easily today.

Marching onwards. KTBFFH!

On how dem give Madrid 5.something odds to win, naim I conclude say Barca don get wahala.

Hala Madrid jare!

Nihilist:
Replied. I checked every item and all look very promising save for one.

I dey reason whether to quickly tasi the movement sef on a skibbyjibby

No dull brah. A wise mafian once said that the man with a great gut - an instinct for the right move at the right time - will go to the top in any business.

You na my consigliere for this field, so e dey your hand to analyse, draw up worst-case scenarios, add up the plus and minus factors.

Nihilist I sent you a copy of a classified info. Check your mail now. No dull my spirit

According to Squawka Statistics, Christensen's overall performance score rates him the 7th best defender in the German League this season.

Just this evening, the rumor making the round has it that we're eager to recall the lad who is on loan at Borrusia M'Gladbach.

Truth is, before we went shopping for mediocres like Djibolowhatever, Hector et al, I was already of the view that we monitor Andreas' progress. Seems like the useless Emenalo led management have seen enough of their own folly.

Christensen featured in the two friendlies played by Denmark during the Int break, completing 180mins in the process. Tell me why he doesn't deserve a chance here.

Just logged into 'Has Alexandria Pato Played For Chelsea Yet?'

What a site!

raumdeuter:
That formation there was no marker in midfield I doubt in a real game vs France Loew would leave Kroos to mark alone.

I doubt Max meyer can make it

Too many options ahead

Like Weigl, kimmich, Kramer Gundogan Kroos, khedira, Schweini, Muller Reus, Draxler, ozil, Gotze, Sane

Even dem Bellarabi Meyer Gomez, Volland still dey compete for slots

Full time

On the emboldened, I believe the idea was to starve the Italians of the ball, which I think worked out perfectly fine. Kroos was only orchestrating play from deep and had little defensive work to do. When we're off the ball, watch how the boys spring back to reject space on our half.

It's a freaking possession footie, and a direct counter of Conte's formation.

Just the tonic we needed after the England defeat. We quite found our rhythm after a slow start. Ozil, Muller and Draxler were pulling the strings whilst the wing-backs provided us good options upfield, the duo of Hector and Rudy were constant threats, one got a goal, the other recorded an assist.

Good over-all performance I say.

raumdeuter:
Emre Can was a disaster on the right and I dont think he should ever play there again. So he is a poor comparison

I think Mustafi, Ginter and Durm sef can be better options on the right or try Kimmich there

Today Germany played a different tactic

3 central Rudiger-Hummels Mustafi

Rudy and hector acting as wing backs

A fluid midfield/attack of Ozil, Kroos Draxler Gotze Muller where everyone interchange but Gotze as the false 9

The position Rudy is playing today is as a wing back and might not be enough to assess his defensive ability when taking on a solid winger like Ronaldo, Griezman. And I doubt Germany would play such formation in the Euro with Boateng, Gundogan, Khedira back

That said Rudy and Hector impressed going forward

Spot on.

I started seeing the game around the 15th min and I noticed Rudiger appeared to be doing more of his business down the right side of the defence - he's been constantly on Insigne. I wasn't too sure if Rudy who's been impressive all night was really manning the RB but heck I'd rather have him there than Emre Phucking Can.

Definitely no way Loew would roll out this possession crazy formation against a stronger side. Chic2pimp's Azzurris lack the firepower to test Die Maanschaft.

Max Meyer? He's been quite impressive for Schalke this season and I feel he deserves a spot.

Raumdeuter your thoughts on Sebastian Rudy.

I think he's slightly better than Emre Can at that RB position.

chrisley024:
60mil for a goalie?! Bro, money doesn’t grow on trees like they say.

Well, the market isn't what it used to be. Inflated figures are what we're meant to deal with now.

And given Thibault is a big prospect who has achieved a lot in a short time, you can always expect his valuation to be sky high.

44chux:
Point of correction, Nigerians can believe anything so long as the rumour stays long enough.

One of such rumours nearly killed me: when one respectable guy told me he would give me #1mil if I got him an old grandfather clock and other similar antique items claiming that one mysterious rare mercury metal dey inside.

Another deceived me claiming if I dialled the imei of my phone whenever it was stolen, MTN will jam & render the phone useless.

Yet another one made me enter gutter looking for MTN used recharge cards when one morning in 2007/2008 some people said if I load any used card e go enter coz somebody hawk MTN server. That morning I received about 19calls from people claiming they loaded up to 20k

The emboldened wasn't a hoax though. I was one of the many people who benefitted from the glitch in MTN's network that faithful day.

I recharged up to 8k before the transient fault got corrected.

Ibime:
Samir Handanovic and Diego Benaglios contracts are expiring this summer, plus I have 100% faith in Begovic.

Make Courtois dey misyarn.

This is why I said last summer that we should keep Cech and sell Courtois who Madrid were ready to pay £45m for.

It was a no brainer. With the loss of DD and Lampard and the impending loss of Terry, Cech was the last leader in the team.

Furthermore, that is a goalie who guarantees world class performances for the next 5 years and will only charge £100k per week due to his age, whereas Courtois will start asking for £200k after one or two seasons.

Regardless of the comments he made, If any team were to bid £60m for TC, I'll accept the offer and promote Begovic.

This current government puts the i in incompetence.

chic2pimp:
Which Job?..... Hitler would have been ashamed of his comrades yesterday.

Certainly no shame losing in a friendly. We're taking our time to prepare for the big stage whilst England are serious with friendlies.

The Euro is around the corner, I sincerely hope the three lions do not bandy around big grammars like 'learning curve' when they must have been eviscerated and knocked out by some minnows.

Leroy Sane anyone? This lad has made tremendous progress over the last few months and must not be overlooked.

His pace, dribbling skills and workrate are his biggest assets and we must keep tabs on him.

Meanwhile, it seems like we've been drawn into a transfer war with Juventus for the signature of Naingollan. Dailymail are carrying around the speculation. This was a ninja I suggested we go for last season, funny the big wigs at SW6 are only after him now.

Happy Easter good people.

chic2pimp:
That was because the Germans had a very easy path through to the finals that year. Swap positions and it would have been the germans backing their bags at the QF that year. Bring on the Germans at the Euros this summer. The three lions go beat una black and blue wahlai.

We keep hearing this, the last time England asked for it, we needed only the boys to do the job.

hensben:
For Germans backyard and from two goals down?

Doesn't mean anything. Nigeria who thrashed Cameroon in a friendly a month ago couldn't even beat a hapless Egypt in a competitive game yesterday.

I've seen England pull off this sorta stunt only to stutter on the big stage. As a Die Maanschaft fan, the only team I dread ATM happens to be the French team, na them be the total package.

Sinizia you don't have to keep doing this, you don't. I believe you're old and wise enough to know when not to breach an international treaty.

We only accomodated you on our soil/thread cos you're a neighbour, that shouldn't give you the effrontery to sever our diplomatic ties with the Germans.

What do we tell the Germans? Raumdeuter who is only a tourist here was shot seven times on the chest by you, what do we phucking tell the Germans?

******

We the Chelsea fans of Nairaland shall not be liable for injuries inflicted by or sustained as a consequence thereof, including, but not limited to lacerations, eviscerations and incinerations.

Sinizia do you stay in Aba? If yes, then how can I benefit from the ongoing hype promo?

It is my earnest wish to be known as the Benito Mussolini of my town albeit I haven't killed a coachroach in my entire freaking life.

bigkesh:
He didn't deny us....When he waa asked about us,he said ' Its not a taboo for me to join Chelsea'.....

He can't let Chelsea rumours affect Italy

I don't know which news you read but what I saw on express had something in this line; ''There aren't any offers in England tempting me because right now, i'm the coach of the national team. . .''

Now that's denying a link. I can only hope he said that just to drag the attention of the press off him and Italy for the time being. If he wont be coming here, then give me Diego Simeone already.

Same old trite lines, nothing new.

''Boateng is better than JT b'cos he has a WC medal and b'cos he beasted in the final''. Isn't this just too dull on the account of overuse?

What's the next debate? My momma cooks better than your momma?
