Baba Don show. Lordfalcao and ibime get ready

I don't discuss with hothead over one game. I'm known for taking long positions, not shaking over one game. I'm one of the only nigga who never said a bad word against Pedro last season because I know what situation he came into while Conteddicted was cursing his mother up and down. I'm the only one who backed Matic last season whilst people were talking nonsense about Mikel. This season came and went, Mikel did not see one minute of action.

A hothead raving over Swansea does not change my opinion of our most robust midfield. I would have played Fabregas today if I'm manager! Next week Conte will decide that West Ham midfield is too physical for Fabregas and they have too many tall players for set pieces. He will drop Fabregas and all that will happen is Conteddicted will curse his mother.

Any Stevie Wonder who claims Matic was not a key part of those wins should watch the video of his performance vs Arsenal in this link.

Nihilist:
You guys are the ones that were claiming it couldn't be done and Fabregas can't play 343.

Not only is Fabregas playing the formation with no problem, he is posting goals and assists. He is playing the same formation and finishing as MOTM in consecutive games...

Nah fam. You are the one with the hyperbole blud. I'm me, reporting live from your toilet, and keeping it 100% real

This is Swansea midfield we are talking about who ain't about midfield battle. This is hardly a litmus test of that position. I personally would have started Fabregas today.

Amyway forget story, this lady on frontpage is my cousin. Come yarn me better thing.

Nihilist:
Yes and this is due to Fabregas how?

Didn't say it was due to Fabregas. I'm wondering why the hyperbole over an uncomfortable win over Swansea at home, like we were losing before now, when we have been trashing much better teams than Swansea comfortably.

Nihilist:
This is a stupïd thing to say in a game we won with 2 goals to spare.

How did we 'nearly' drop points when we were already ahead 27 minutes into the 2nd half...after even already chopping bar?

17 minutes to the end of the game, we were dropping points and hoping for victory at home against Swansea. In most of our matches this season, we are home and dry by 60 minutes.

Unlimited22:
Who ran the show in Midfield? Who gave Pedro the pass? Who was the man of the match?

It was a great performance from Fabregas but not a comfortable win from Chelsea as we have been seeing all season.

Nihilist:
It was only Burnley till Matic cost us a win.

It was only Swansea yet we nearly dropped points.

Unlimited22:
Hope we all saw Fabregas today. Unlike that redundant lanky Serb who doesn't know his job.

That lanky Serb was part and parcel of our 4 most dominant performances of the season - Everton 5-0, Utd 4-0, Southampton 2-0 and Arsenal 3-1.

We went 1-0 up against Swansea and you guys started shouting Die Matic, then spent the rest of the game praying not to drop points before Pedros goal toward the end

Nihilist:
Nothing new there. When Ibime told you the boy runs 11km per game, did you think he was joking

Let Matic stay improving his temple run high scores, while the real midfield don runs the game.

Calm down ogbeni. It's only Swansea.

See Alonso balling.

Dieeeeeeeeeeeeggggggooooaaaaaaaaaaalllllll!!!!

Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeedddriiiiiiiiiiiitooooo.

Oya Raumdeuter come start the comparison. I dey your back!

Swansea starting to crank up pressure. Make these boys wake up o.

Who left Victor Moses to mark Swanseas best header of the ball there? What are Luiz and Cahill doing?

Pedro almost doing a Hazard there

raumdeuter:
Yes One has won the CL world cup and Euro cup winning the MOTM in each final

Now tell us about Hidden Ikedia Hazard

No need checking Pedro vs Hazard goal contribution then since Pedro has won all the above.

raumdeuter:
Very soon I will start the Hazard vs Pedro contribution to goal

Don't forget the Iniesta vs Chilavert one while you're at it.

afrodoc2:
Spain has 16 titles but just 2 winners, Italy 12 titles but just 3 winners while England has 12 titles from 5 different winners showing depth and variety..

What of Burndisligdown. How many titles from how many winners?

Why is Dayo always crying more than the bereaved?

Dayo and Bundesliga are serial bridesmaids always arguing which bride is the most beautiful.

KOWA party always putting mouth in APC and PDP business that doesn't concern them.

Nihilist:
Fabregas starts.

Lalaboi and lordfalcao eat your hearts out

What of Ibime?

Ibime come out oo

"normalising for the late 1950s and early 1960s when English clubs refused to join UCL"

Na the kain lies wey you dey spew upandan

Lets even do it the right way. Lets bet $200 and I will prove that Englishclubs joined the UCL in the late 50 and early 60s only that they werent good enough to win

Definitely when I'm talking you know there are some facts behind it even though some hyperbole may be involved. European Cup was not taken seriously by the FA in the 1950s who discouraged English clubs from competing and that was also the prevailing attitude of English clubs. It was Man Utd that fought for England to start taking the tournament seriously and for the first few years, they were on their own in that regard.

Danhumprey:
It won't cost anybody anything to admit that the EPL currently is shiiit! Simple!

Follow the thread of the conversation please.

Donjazet said English league has always been shyte except 2004-2010.

Au contraire, normalising for the late 1950s and early 1960s when English clubs refused to join UCL and for 1986 to 1998 when English clubs were expelled from Europe for hooliganism and took their time to recover, English clubs have been the dominant force in UCL.

In other words, for the period that England have been actively competing in UCL, they have been the top dogs.

In the mid 1970s to 1980s before England was expelled, whoever they send to UCL wins it. If Liverpool couldn't qualify, Aston Villa would go and win it. Nottingham Forest twice won it when Liverpool couldn't qualify. Basically any team the English league puts forward will be champions before their expulsion from Europe.

donjazet:
England would then go on to dominate for 10 years from 1975 --1985 with Celtic, Liverpool, Nottingham forest, Aston Villa,leeds and Manchester United all winning it on the first time of asking. The subsequent years will be overrun with the Italians and Spanish again dominating till mid 2000s and then the last 5 years.

Remember that English teams were banned from Europe for 5 years from the late 1980s to early 1990s due to the Heysel disaster. After the English teams returned, they had been left behind and it took till 1999 to win it again. In effect, England spent 13 years in the wilderness before getting back to their previous status - due to the expulsion. The Italian period of dominance in the 1990s should have belonged to the English if not for that expulsion.

If you take away first mover advantage of the 1950s and early 1960s when English FA refused their teams to join UCL (this is the period Real Madrid swept up 5 trophies) and take away 1986 to 1998 when England was serving suspension and then recovering from the suspension, then it is fair to say that England has beasted every other country in UCL.

donjazet:
In truth, apart from 2004 --2010, the English teams have never dominated Europe the way the Spanish and Italians used to.

English teams dominated the 70s, 80s and 2000s. You are just a child of the 90s, that's all. English league has 5 different UCL winners. No other country has more than 3. In the last 11 years, England has 3 seperate winners. That is diversity and strength in depth.

Dayo having a field day on this thread. Please we are not in Europe oh. Carry your sermon to Arsenal and Spurs thread. We are the choir. When Chelsea go to Europe, we represent 8 times out of 10. All 4 European cups are in our possession.

All na simultaneous equation.

raumdeuter:
Madrid has a rich history in the CL of winning, Compare that to City

So does Nottingham Forest

raumdeuter:
Gentle reminder that it took City 6 attempts to reach one semi final

And it took Madrid 9 attempts yet couldn't reach UCL semi. JM did in his 1st season.

This is me lordfalcao reporting live from Etihad. Una see my goal?

bykebyke:
He's a ball carrying midfielder..his dribbles can open chances passes won't open.

And how many assists has his dribbles created? ZERO league assists in one calendar year I remember. Less than Dani Alves I remember.

Toooooooorrrrrrr! Monaaaaaaaacoooooo!!!!

homesteady:
This was exactly how you said Iniesta didn't have any assit in that season, I reminded you of his Assist against PSG, you were now claiming that was his 1st assist, meanwhile he had about 3 or 4 assists before that one and ended up 2nd on the assist chart only behind Messi!

Now you are claiming that he did not have any assist in the league during that season! How much are you willing to bet on that?

Kevin De Bruyne - worlds best midfielder in 2015 with 50 goals plus assists

Iniesta - worlds best CARRYALONG midfielder in 2015 with ZERO league goals and ZERO league assists in one full calendar year.

bykebyke:

Tales of dribbles like Pius Ikedia.

Show us goals. Nothing.

Show us assists. Nothing.

Show us passes per game. Nothing.

Just Pius Ikedia metrics.

Godstraight:
,u say iniesta is useless without xavi,now tell me who Barca's and the WORLD'S best midfielder in 2015?

You be real mugu for quoting 2015. Name the midfielder that went a whole league season with ZERO goals and ZERO assist in 2015 season.

I'm sure you missed the vital adjective in your sentence. You meant to ask me who was the world's best CARRYALONG midfielder in 2015.

raumdeuter:
How many minutes of this season has a 34yr old Iniesta played

Pinnochio, your lies are getting worse each day. From 32 years old to 34. Do you work for IRS, why are you putting tax on his age?

Please tell me how Mr 53 passes per game would be in top 30 passers in laliga even if he played every game?

Nihilist:
Sid Lowe's acerbic commentary on last night's game hitting home with all the impact of a Mike Tyson upper cut.



Cc Airmark

You can see how false Iniestas reputation for possession football is. He can't score, can't assist and does not run any possession game. That's why we named him Pius Iniesta, for dribbling himself upandan. Oh what a Xaviless Barcelona.
