Wenger in?

Spy360:
By calling out the midfield you missed your entire point.

The whole team looked jaded. The whole team looked weak. The whole team looked disjointed. The whole team looked fatigued.

Was it their training regime? Was it the international break? There are more questions than answers.

The best thing is to move on, because this midfield agenda will not work here.

BlueRayDick:
But e reach for naija to do juju against partey na. He single handedly made the whole 60,000 fans go berserk after denying us a place in Qatar . E pain boys sotey dem steal VAR wey commot Osimehn goal

popizaino:
You haven't asked him if he knew any player called Busquet before then, you haven't asked him how Barcelona were fairing in el-classico before then, you haven't asked him Barcelona total points before Pep Guardiola. Tbh na slap him suppose use answer all this question.

TLona1:
Please mention me when he replies this.

Thank you.

BlueRayDick:
They simply choke Partey and those he could pass to out of the game. His fatigue was visible but Palace plans worked really well too. Without Partey being fatigued we would still have lost that match yesterday. Those guys simply overwhelmed us from kickoff.

hensben:
So it’s not a big deal winning ucl with peak messi led barca team. Pep is a smart and cun man, he purposely go for team that is safe in terms of finance and squad unlike some of his colleagues that take risky jobs.

Party no go sweet here jare, make i go troll Jodera for United thread instead ...

BlueRayDick:
While we can attribute Partey's poor performance yesternight to Fatigue from international duty, we can't also take away the fact that Viera had a well detailed game plan his boy carried out to the letter which is largely responsible for palace's victory.

They had us where the want us. They knew the importance of Partey to the team and so Gallagher was always on Partey ; those usual switch of play we know Partey for were practically non existence cos Gallagher was always breathing down his neck. Maybe if someone like Xhaka were to be a more adventurous midfielder or more brilliant midfielder things could've been different and we might have been able to do things better.

Mitchell and Zaha gave Cedric a really busy night on the right side of our defence thereby limiting the amount of Saka could receive, tye few balls that got to Saka were either over hit, passes laid behind his back which he had to struggle to retrieve or balls that were perfect but he seem not to be able to hold on to....Maybe it's cos of the COVID-19 he had recently sha.

All in all, I think Palace deserved the victory. They didn't mind conceding possession to us, they had us where they wanted and the rest was history.

BlueRayDick:
For the penalty, Odegaard is the last person I will for it. There was Partey who gave the ball away in midfield thereby releasing Zaha to get a go at our defence....Then Gabriel failed to deal decisively with Zaha that had the ball his feet, instead he allowed himself to be bypassed like a training cone. Gabriel could've fouled Zaha long outside the box and would've taken a yellow for the team to keep the scoreline respectful at least but he didn't. Odegaard had to intervene after Gabriel had failed to deal with the situation decisively.

As regards Odegaard giving away the penalty, I think the coaching crew needs to work well with our players on how to mark opponents without giving out fouls unnecessarily. Almost all our players are guilty of not knowing how to win the ball from opponents without being penalised. I've Saka, Martinelli, Gabriel, Partey, General Xhaka and almost all the team giving out fouls they could've avoided if they could just keep eyes on the ball and take it off opponents' feet without getting entangled with them. Just like we've worked on conceding goals through corners and set pieces, I think this is also doable.

50d33q:
Remember early season when I said midfield is the heart of a successful team
But guys here will think it's defense, recently spy360 asked me if our midfield is now good
I told him it's okay if we are fighting for 4 to 6 position
At the moment if partey is really injured then the top6 might just die off.
Even if we have vvd and koulibally yesterday we go still collect wotowoto
It took a fatigue midfield to expose the clown inside Gabriel

Leyqute:
Arteta was nullified.

Should’ve done better. The workload was too much for partey.

Oasis007:


Jodera and Co don pack dia wahala go dia Hamlet.... LMFAO.

daveP:
His errors were school boy errors. Saliba barely has that this season. Don't act like we both don't admit he's having an excellent season abeg.

It's not cos of one match.

Leyqute:
Jodera my guy.

How far na?

Ellexy:
Jodera how far my guy?

Spy360:

50d33q:
Jodera will come and tell us how lacazette is linking with midfield when the agbaya failed woefully in his primary duty

50d33q:
Did you know if arteta present such avenue to talk

drisham:
Lol boss

Rooney actually meant pep from the context

If he used "someone like pep". In the statement then it's arguable

Leyqute:
LooL. You go see say na on a low key.

My favorites were City and Liverpool and I stated my reason why.

City, largely because of their superior squad depth and Liverpool largely because of their coach.

But your guy dey follow me argue (sentimentally) say United get better squad than City.

Even when I did A/B testing and case by case comparison, e still no gree.

Pepeye don open yansh now, e come quiet like Messi for UCL Q/Finals

popizaino:
A Guardiola is just Guardiola and a Klopp will be Klopp alone no attache by force. If Ronney meant others he would have gladly mentioned their names beside Rooney said this long time ago when Klopp was still yet to taste European success.
