He was nt consistent in the first half, losing possession easily. I don't see him playing ahead willian, cuardardo in the flanks not forgetting untouchable hazard. If he is not sold, loan looms.

Or Traore. . . but hes better than Cuadrado

Tval:
HT.

Abeg hit us with 2nd half link. Na on phone i dey watch am

airmark:
I can smell loan on moses head

His touch is all over the place

1. Mind you this was at the beginning of last season. At that time sane person rated Bruyne over Oscar.
2. Bar Gotze, no one on that list is Definitely better than Oscar. Best scenario, one can make a case for anyone of them.
3. Sterling and Coutinho are not better than Oscar, they play in the same league, and they've not out-performed him

Oscar is 24 years old (no longer a youngster) and has never been nominated for young player of the year in his local league yet you class him top 5 young AMS in the world. I want some of what you're smoking.


Coutinho you mentioned got nominated with the big boys, not even youngsters and made team of the year. How can i compare him with someone who cant even be nominated with youngsters after 3 solid seasons of playing AM for one of the top 2 clubs in the country?

Meanwhile Sterling has been nominated severally, even won the European version of YPOTY and had £49m put on his head while Juve are pricing £19m for Oscar. The Oscar myth has been exposed. He is no longer a youngster and has never had an outstanding or even good season in his career. He is only still at Chelsea because we cant get a decent price on the market - to even breakeven on what we spent on him.

Ive always rated De Bruyne over Oscar, forget politics. All these fake Brazilian internationals are/have been exposed for what they are - products of hype due to third party interests in their value. I cant place Oscar in my top 30 players under 24.

dawhizkid1:
I also said one would struggle to name 5 AMs under 23 that definitely better than him.

Even dis na blasphemy if this is what you said.

Is he not mates with Ramsey, De Bruyne, Isco, Sterling, Gotze, Coutinho, Calhanoglu and many others?

Please we have tasted Mikel as our DM especially in 2012/13 season and had to replace him with Luiz, Lampard, Matic and co cos he doesnt do his basic job properly, so dont come here telling us about the Mikel you know from Super Eagles where Onazi does his defensive job for him. The Mikel we know sees an agricultural brute like Kurt Zouma drafted into midfield in his stead because he can't be trusted to do his job defensively. The Mikel we know is also well into his 30s claiming to be 27 or 28. The Mikel we know is only at Chelsea after 3 solid seasons of riding the bench because his patron in the Technical Director chair is looking after him.

dawhizkid1:
This is the Mikel Obi I Know, he is a decent Midfielder.

Hmmmmm. . . you told us this time last year that the Oscar you know is one of the top 3 Under23 players in the world. . .

lordfalcao:
callejon?? when last did i hear that name which club is he plying his trade now



imagine who mou wants to sign

Callejon is alright. Certainly an upgrade, most importantly he scores goals

Looks like Chelsea are in for Jose Callejon

Meanwhile Jose says to forget talk about Witsel cos he already has 6 midfielders. . . unless one of them leaves

I don't who keeps giving this two faced weasel limelight on front page. Barcanista is a jobless oaf looking for appointment, our very own FFK on Nairaland. I cant stand duplicitous, hungry and desperate men.

I remember arguing with I think chic2pimp at season start that I know Felipe Luis as being weak defensively and strong attacking-wise right from his days at Deportivo. . . . and that I only saw him be strong defensively when Simeone started coaching him.

I think his experience at Chelsea bears that out - defending is not his natural default setting.

donjazet:
Seriously, we Chelsea fans have to learn to make a decision and stand by it. Am always reading some ppls posts whereby dey complain about d lack of opportunity given to the youths in our rank and rake about how Chelsea waste talents and these same fans are asking for more established players. In life u can't have it both ways, I bliv d club knows DAT if we wanna raise d youth, we won't compete on all four fronts effectively 4 a given time nd it seems they are trying 2 integrate d kids nd here we are whining. I personally think we shld put more trust in our kids nd trust mou to still win at LST 2 domestic cups.

When we request new signings, we are leaving space for the kids. . . the spaces that deadweights like Mikel, Ramires and Cuadrado are currently occupying.

Icon4s:
Super Ted!

Super Ted and Voltron all day, followed by Robert Ramjet

AirborneLacer:
Kenneth Omeruo has officially joined Turkish side Kasimpasa on a season-long loan deal.

This dude has lost it, TBH.

I wish him the best anyway.

Old age, as with all promising Nigerian players.

Nihilist:
Bamford signs on loan at Palace

Good choice. Lots of pacy players means they're not relying on him for pace, also less competition for the no9 shirt.

The window is starting to move slowly. Luis out, Rahman in.

Next Salah out should bring a face in.

We shoulda put Ramires out for Witsel also. I'm sure AVB is still a fan of Rami and would have him at Zenith

ThaBlaqBonez:
Okay ibime. Someone just went from 7k to 30k in one day

He must be employing bots or sitting on PC with his friends clicking all day. NL sef cant get you more than 2000 votes. I made the request to the mods but they are not forthcoming.

liricyst:
I’ll swing a wrecking ball/ on this baby’s effing balls/
And let the resonance take him from newton’s cradle to grave!/

Once you spit this one for crowd, na boo dem go take pursue you.

At least 25% of Nigerians have come across Ohm's law. . . . .a small percentage would give you props for that.

Oscillation is even more niche. . . . we no send am. . . . and I no think say Okeke Physics cover am well sef.

liricyst:
Tanks for getting that. Ibime been wan argue physics with me before. Said its current that is squared forgetting that I is indeed current.
Really maximum power is also = I square resistance......that was played with show max power

I do agree however that max's punches hit harder. I mean, I reread my verse against gladyys and I saw I brought the same amount of creativity to the table but not the steam.

C'mon dude, who no know say current na I. Why would I know that you are referring to Ohm's Law and not know the symbol for current. Does that make sense to you?

You related Max Power to square of resistance without mentioning current, hence I said you should have built in current in your build-up as current is actually what is squared.

I can't give you 10/10 for that line. . . .

This is a 10/10 Ohm's law punchline. . . .

Those old verses you penned are skilless/ and show proverbial weakness
and ya current flow. . . Im sorry!! . . . shows no potential difference

JM is giving me HBP with his recent statement that we will only sign John Stones thís window.

What happened to his earlier proclamation that he needs a defender, midfielder and striker?

Shey Mikel na the midfielder?

I reckon the club has hamstrung him thís window, maybe due to the Felipe Luis bust and possibly Cuadrado who I think was recommended by the club anyway. They should not forget his 3 other signings delivered the league - Matic, Fabregas and Costa.

These people no go kill me with HBP. Wasn't it obvious that lack of midfield cover made us tentative against PSG as we were dominated in midfield and scared of counterattacks?

Chasing Stones over midfielder and winger is an exercise in stüpidity.

It is not Mourinho chasing Stones, I believe it's the club.

@ Mukina2, Airmark, lalasticlala

Can we help one of our own on here and push this to front page?

Thanks

bandely:
Well, I wasn't aware of that. Nevertheless, it is a gone deal already.
For me, Laporta would have made a better president. The Barca of today is now shrouded in controversy while also chasing players with exorbitant fee, thereby neglecting and depleting their renowned La Masia (an academy we all wished was ours). I think last season's success "clouded" their reasoning, however, Bartomeu isn't a bad choice either.
All in all, I wish them luck, but not at the expense of Chelsea

Bartomeus (and Rossels) regime has the corruption and tax evasion stain of the Neymar transfer hanging over it, not to mention haranguing Guardiola and making life difficult for him, but I think elections came at a perfect time for him - just after winning the treble!

ThaBlaqBonez:
Thanks boss, anyway you can help with getting it to the front page?

If you put thís on FrontPage, you will get disqualified from sheer no of votes.

Lalaboi who runs NJOK is one of our mods in music section, and I'm sure your fellow contestants come to NL also, and may complain.

You have a healthy lead so I think you should win, but if any contestant has a sudden surge and overtakes you, let us know, then we can petition the mods.

bandely:
Bartomeu wins! Arda Turan gone for good!

All candidates agreed that they were gonna keep Turan. . . .it was debated live on Barca TV channel between all 4 contestants and they came to a concensus that whoever wins will honour the agreement. . . remember also that Luis Enrique wanted the player so it is any Presidents interest to keep him happy as his stock is high with Los Cules currently. . .

I voted for Blaqbonez and Prometh as they are part of our community. . . .


Listening to all the entries, Blaqbonez was the best, followed by Chockie, then Tytanium . . . . Prometh in 4th, but all were good efforts.

From the punches analysis above, I've shaded punches to Elymax. . . . so here's how the rest of the criteria goes. . .


opener - 1 point - Lirycist

•rhymes - 2 points - Lirycist all day

eg:

My bars shortly will dish out acute pain cos my opponent’s obtuse/ No giving this Rodent a truce/ His nick is Air coupled with lies, in him every component’s a ruse/

Best pity yourself in this dentrimental battle/ cos it shows you are expendable like experimental samples/ Ya family will be indifferent when I send the metal at you/


•similes/ metaphors - 2 points - Lirycist

The science metas were a higher form of metas than Max's offering

•punchlines -3 points - Max

As dissected above

•personals - 2 points - Max

BTW @ darkenedrebel, 2 points is too much to give in a battle where personals were not a big factor. I recommend this category only carries 1 point going forward.

•flow - 1 point - Lirycist

•word-plays/puns - 2 points - Max

Lirycist is yet to add this category to his arsenal

•closer - 1 point - N/A, didn't really feel both


Final scores:

Elymax 7 - 6 Lirycist


Close battle, highly debatable. . . . . . .but I give a slight edge to Elymax

Wow, this is a CLASSIC final!!

Engineering ninjas like Coogar will love Lycisists punches, me I liked em, but I also equally loved Max's witty punches.

These are my Don de Marcos:

Elymaxiimus:
but i won't only hurt n graze him/
i got tools! ....... A swing leaves his head spinning on
THESE AXES
.... Like the earth's rotation/

7/10

Elymaxiimus:
cos you a die-hard nuts-flaunting f@ggot sucker/
but miley cyrus knows i'm "wrecking balls," when i
catch this pauper/

The final punch was generic, but this build up was hilarious. . . . I am awarding extra 2 points for this build-up

Elymaxiimus:
nd he aint got the drugs incentive either/ heard he
brought his mum
to help deliver/
but i won't let any FAM ASSIST ...... Or a medicine
giver/ as i sear
the geezer till he's with fever/
cos when we the cage, i'm a deadly eater/
i'll bring hoooooooooooot water to make him BOIL
IN RING ..........
Like electric heater/

Decent wordplay in the build-up and the final punch also landed nicely . . . . 7/10

Elymaxiimus:
When i bruise him with pleasure/
the HATCHETS OPEN HIS CHEST .............. Like
b1tches looking for treasure/

Simple and effective.. . . the first two bars was a waste of rhyming. . . .you only needed these two last lines to land an effective, clean, simple punch. . . . .7/10

Elymaxiimus:
plus i brought loads of teks in/ when i sight ur
spine, it aint focal testing/
the aim is to put ur back down like local wrestling/

This was in the build-up, not the punch but I add 2 extra points for this cos I like those little mini-punches that keep the reader interested.

Elymaxiimus:
y'all gon witness ... An ONLINE
battle where liric gon
be dead/
cos i'm a spider ..... He's my prey .... He's getting
killed on the WEB/

I deduct -2 points for this. . . . vets should not be talking of spider and web

Elymaxiimus:
this wacky cruiser/ has more career issues than
an ajepaki boozer/
jobs vacancies section - he's the most active user/
a confused sap n loser/

This is only build-up, but I love the flow and personal lands funny as hell. . . . I award an extra 3 points


Elymax punches total - 26 points

___________________________________________________________________________________________

Liricyst:
Call it a first class murder ….cos in flying
grey and red
colours…it successfully exits his
thinking faculty!/

6/10. . . . . could be better with better build up

Liricyst:
I will smite max, if he opts to be a hindrance/
No much work required to have him boxed
up in an instant/
He’s far from my potential but my fist
Force’ll cut through a
Distance/
This is settled with a punch….. as I show max
power…when I
square up to the resistance!/

8/10. . . . .I would give 10/10. . . . but it's a very niche topic so I deduct 1 point. . . .also current is squared in Ohm's law so build-up could have been better. . . .

Liricyst:
In this conquest that glads contest/The subjects
and fans confess/
That going through the motion to count the best I’m
Top Left, like
Mav’s Northwest!/
But you have no bearing….You will Always
be nothing….like
objects that start from rest!/

8/10. . . .The punch is not a haymaker. . . . but the build-up is delicious. . .

Note: You are now running out of credit on Physics subject matter

Liricyst:
He’s d flavour of the tourney? Coogar that ish is
being addressed n
debunked/
Let him bring on the jazz….i’ll whoop him with
the best of g-funk/
Cock the rifle/Pop the rival/stop his vitals/
I’ll Show I’m not his contemporary in rap
when those Heavy
metal rocks the chest of this punk!/

Decent word association scheme . . . . 5/10

Liricyst:
Don’t believe the stories, Elymax is just fabled to be
cray/
He’s badly lame, please tell the disabled to behave/
I’ll swing a wrecking ball/ on this baby’s effing
balls/
And let the resonance take him from newton’s
cradle to grave!/

Now I'm deducting -2 point for overplaying Physics and for reaching. It's too niche, it doesn't land and swinging wrecking balls on someone's balls is a reach. Associating Newton's 'cradle' to 'grave' is also a reach. Poor set up, bad idea.



Lirycist punches total = 25

nitlad:
Yep! I made top ten in my H2H last season.

You must have been in conference Cup.

Anyway, I see Mukina2 has given dyabman code. If standards are that low, surely nitlad must be eligible to receive code.

bigkesh:
If you have a fight with some homeless ,lonely refugee in YOUR HOUSE and destroy things, will your parents blame the other idiot? NO........
The only reason we are blaming you is because u are a Chelsea fan and you brought this shit upon our thread....
The other slowpoke as I said earlier is homeless and a Fool,He doesn't have anyone to care about him and deal withhim because he damaged your home not his.....

If this was his thread then you would av been excused..
I really expect you to apologize and ignore that idiot who probably has a grandchild..

Well said bigkesh. . . . jimmy4x, no be say we dey vex for you. . . .but we dey vex for you cos you keep bringing vagrants to our thread. . . .

kr0ne:
Shaking off rust. .
hos all about se.men and d1ck chase/ and my men rivals get defeated and displaced/
coz when ur away, I’d be creeping to ya place/ and while u buying her ‘beauty products’, I’m creaming ya chick’s face/

Don demarco!

kr0ne:
Krone getting older, and I for like to marry/ but I wan first build house and buy Bugatti/
if you like travel by foot like Fulanis/

This is a funny @zz build-up. . . .

nitlad:
Imagine a high-flyer like me being made to hustle for codes amidst neophytes.

This is almost equal to what Ibime suffered last season for deleting his team the penultimate season.

High wetin?

Where you finish last season? You done crack top 10 before? Please don't compare water to kaikai. All fingers are not the same.

jimmy4x:
You are acting more stupid for taking sides, dude, can't u read?

I'm not taking sides. Everytime we Chelsea fans log on here to check transfer news or see our fellow forumites thoughts on how the squad is shaping up, all we see is 5 pages of jimmy4x and some nonentities going back and forth on some unintelligible gibberish that hurts our eyes.

Na you dey bring all these clowns come here. Chill out on the brainless arguments with your Barca, Real and Manure rivals on our thread so we can enjoy our collective experience on this thread. We no come here to see your private conversations on BBM either.

All I'm looking for on this thread is clear space to read what Bimffo, Mithel, Emaprince, FBS, TVal, Nihilist, Nateevs, CFCfan, Airbournelacers, lalaboi and all our Chelsea brothers have to say, that's all. I can't be coming here to sift through 5 pages of unreadable nonsense between jimmy4x and some nonentity everyday.

jimmy4x:
a douchebag for doing what exactly, being a Chelsea fan, commenting on this thread, arguing with the likes of raumdeuter , A40 nd co or for trying to defend myself cos nonso is trying to mess me up, tell me pls.

Dude, just take a break. We are tired of stupidity and unedifying semi-literate nonsense back and forths on this thread.
