What is so "insightful" about IBB telling us his wife is Igbo? This thread should be deleted for being "deliberately misleading". cheesy

debosky:
Yab DD all you want - scoring 30+ goals no be yam.  grin

There is clearly a dynamism he has that also assists other team mates to score - simply because you had some landslide victories against teams when he wasn't around is no proof of anything - the consistency of his goalscoring performances matching up to the majority of Chelski's wins this season means that the issue is not DD as such, but a lack of awareness on how to best utilise him.

The proof of the pudding shall be seen when DD eventually leaves and we'll see if you will do as well without him.
I guess Aston Villa is also a small team.

Manure is also a small team I guess, the way we dominated them in DD's absence in the first half.

Anyway, I expect Arsenal fans to have a blind spot when it comes to Drogba. In the pantheon of players most feared at Emirates, Drogba ranks up with Messi as joint no 1.  grin

How can you say the build up play is abysmal when we completed twice as many successful passes as Spurs before Terry sending off. . . . nah, the build up play isnt poor, DD link up and movement is poor. Any good build up ends at Drogbas feet.


Whats that stat again. . . . Chelsea have scored 4.17 goals per game without DD and 2.14 per game with Drogba.


If Ancelotti is serious about playing possession footie, he needs to stop sucking DD manliness.

Here's a stat for y'all. . . . at the start of the 2nd half, it flashed on my screen that Chelsea had completed 280 successful passes to 140 for Tottenham. . . thats double the amount of successful passes.

Its a shame that after 15 or 20 successful passes, the ball ends up at DD's feet, he loses it and we have to start again from square one. If the ball lands to Anelkas feet after a few passes, you can be rest assured that possession will continue until a chance is created.

I have always hated DD cos I dont believe a team like Chelsea should be playing with a striker as crude as Drogba who has the first touch of a semi-professional footballer. Others are just saying now what I've been saying since I joined NL in 2007. Some even argued when I first said that DD first touch is woeful. It doesnt matter to me how many goals DD scores, Im sure the team can do better without him, and this season has brought that to light.

It shouldnt surprise y'all how Carlotti keep throwing away leads. This is a man who threw away a 9 point lead against Lazio in 2000 when he was manager of Juve.

As for DD, I think he is a major obstacle to progress right now.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Tottenham Vs Chelsea [2 - 1] On Saturday 17th April 2010 by Ibime(m): 7:09pm On Apr 17, 2010
I laugh in autotune!

Never again will 85 points suffice to win the league, yet Mr Ancelotti specialises in throwing away all the leads we've had this season.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Tottenham Vs Chelsea [2 - 1] On Saturday 17th April 2010 by Ibime(m): 6:31pm On Apr 17, 2010
How many chances do we need to win the league?

Are these lot telling me we have to go and win away at Liverpool to secure the title?

Ancelotti needs to explain why DD is on the pitch.

Ivanovic last played only 3 weeks ago, meaning he still has his stamina. If he is fit for the bench, then he is fit to start. I dont know what Ferreira is doing on this pitch.

You dont have to have a degree in Physics to be a Secondary-level Physics teacher. Any Engineering or Maths graduate can teach Physics at that level.

Whilst our education system is falling apart, I think the Prof is overstating the case a little.

@ibime
U're not worth debating with, if it was easy to score goals then, how come no other striker scored same goals with him or even more than him? U claim there was no league in brazil then, now i shouldn't even argue with u because most of his goals were scored with the national team. If it was easy then, we should have had @ least 15 strikers with 1000 goals each.
Are you sure Pele scored 1000 goals, or are you counting exhibition matches?

Please go and check the records. . . Pele has 656 competitive goals to his name, not 1000.

Esuebio has scored way more competitive goals than Pele. Ferenc Puskas has a better goal per game record, and he did that in a better league.

In Paulista Championship (against semi-Professionals mostly), Pele has 470 goals in 412 games. Na there him chop goals, come dey make mouth anyhow.

How many goals will Messi score if he plays against Tranmere and Havant and Waterlooville every week?

Imagine this one coming to tell me that most of Peles goals come with the national team. You should be repatriated to your village!

Go and sit down abeg, you have no argument.

And in this era when the offside rule has been tweaked and tweened to force strikers to score (check Italia 90) and there is no longer a back-pass rule,In this era where divers abound and clueless ref walk about on pitches with no idea as to what to use the whistles in their mouths,in this era where any sort of contact is judged a foul by these refs,in this era where there is an increase in real and imagined penalties,tell me why anyone shouldn't score 2000 goals.
It's freak'n easy these days.The standards have dropped so badly.Players are not as available like they used to in a World Cup year.
honeric01:
@ibime,
I can see that you dont any real fact to back up your point that football now's harder than before, lemme play by your rules, how manage that manU was able to score 7 against roma? How about holland vs serbia @ o6 wc? U remember the scoreline right? Saudi vs germany 02 wc? Remember that too? Goals cant be used to determine if football of now's harder than of old, try checking fouls stats in the past to now, maybe that might give u a clue. Headbuting and elbowing was like goalkicks then, players always ended matches with bruises and broken bones compared to now, ask those who were fortunate to watch football at that time for the raw tale.
If this was school, both of you have already scored F-

I mentioned scores like 7-3 and 5-2 because those were actual scores in European Cup Final and World Cup final respectively, yet some numpties are coming here to mention freak results like Saudi Arabias game against Germany.

This season, there is talk whether Chelsea can score 96 goals to become the highest scoring team in Premier league era, yet teams like Aston Villa scored 138 goals during Pele era.

Before coming to yarn opata, please go and check the historical goals per game average of all the major leagues in the world.

Back in Peles day when the standard formation was 4-2-4 and WW-formation (3-3-4), why will strikers not find it easy to score goals? Can you compare the space available to players from the 2 eras?

These numpties do not even know that Brazil had no National league during Peles career. At that time, they only played State Championships, and Pele only played in the Paulista Championship (Sao Paulo), where the only big teams are Santos, Gremio, Palmeiras, Corinthians and Sao Paulo. . . . the other 15 teams in the league being mostly semi-professional teams and bunch of amateurs. . . . no wonder Pele dey score 1000 goals. . . . NONSENSE!

Any mugu should be able to decipher that with Barcelona scoring 100 goals a season, it will take Messi 10 years to complete 1000 goals even if he scores all Barcelona goals by himself.

Make una no dey yarn nonsense for here abeg. I am not saying that Messi is the GOAT (Maradona still is), but make Pele no dey talk him 1000 goals nonsense for here. If thats the criteria, then Romario is the second greatest player of all time.

Sorry but how old are you? when did you start watching football? saying football was damn easy in the old days, you are joking right? in the old days, goal keepers were allowed to catch backpasses, there was nothing like extra time, if a match ends in a draw, there must be a rematch, the ball was harder, the boots were of inferior qualities, no gym facilities, if you are not warm up, all had to be done manually by running around a whole city, there was no ER like we have now, no facilities to put you back in shape like we have now, karate, kung fu, wrestling and all that was a norm in football back then, why would you compare the "war" style of football to ajebutter type of football we watch today? please go back and start watching classic football, you lot have alot to learn about the genesis of football.
Save the fairytales abeg. . . . there was a lot more space for strikers in the old days, thats why matches regularly end up 7-3, 5-2, 8-1 etc. . .  .

No striker in the modern era can score the amount of goals those old guys did cos space is simply at a premium cos players run more than double the distance they used to, thus closing up any space. . .

Till infinity, no one will ever outscore Just Fontaine who scored 13 goals in 1958 World Cup or Gerd Mullers 10 goals in 1970. . . . thats how easy it was to score those days, so please save your "Thunder Balogun" stories about football being a difficult game in the old days. . . .

truly:
Thanks for the information
Actually Pele was injured in 1966 not in 1962
and that was the only world cup he participated in and did not win
He played all through in 58, 62 and 70If you have been following Pele's comments on this matter
boo. . . . Pele only played 2 group matches in 1962. . .


@ topic,

In an era where players used to run 5km per game, there was enough space for players like Pele to cop a humongous amount of goals.

Let Pele come and play in this era where players run 12km per game (thus limiting space, and consequently chances), where teams play with 2 defensive midfielders and 4 defenders. . . . lets see whether Pele would be able to score 400 goals, talkless of 1000.

The old man should go and sleep abeg.

Pele played in four world cups and won three of them.No one has managed that before or after him.
Pele didn't need to play in Europe,because back then it was difficult to have foreign based players,let alone South American players in Europe,so it wasn't his fault.
Story, story. . . .

If you look at Peles contribution in 1962 and 1970, that would tell you that Brazil would have won those WC's with or without Pele.

Pele had chance to go to Madrid. Di Stefano and the rest were already in Madrid by then.

Maradona knows how to dribble. Dont be suckered in by his newfound espousal of progressive policies, especially his plans to instill Federalism in Nigeria. Did all these policies not cross his mind during his 8 years in charge? Whilst the temptation is there to believe that you need a strong man like IBB to change society for the better, we must know that change comes from the citizenry, not from its leaders.

So far, Ill just say IBB is telling you what you want to hear, as has always been the case with IBB.
