19) Amad

who made this stupid top 5 without Saka?

Oasis007:
None of the current Players can make the starting XI.

Bench? De Gea has a chance. Bruno for O'shea and Shaw for Sylvester.

Exactly my own thought too

hensben:
This is the coach fault. His tactical structure is average, hence the poor positioning to receive pass.

Exactly, Ole is poor in that regard

Ibunkun1:
2yrs ke?

Yes na, and that's me being generous sef

I don dey prepare write my answer only to notice say the guy don close shop

CapitalCee:
Wbo among the current team starts for this team? Or can make the bench

SUBs: J.S park, Fletcher, Brown, Nani, Anderson, O'shea, Kuzcsaks and Silvestre.

Bruno ahead of Anderson
Shaw probably for lb duties sub.
De gea for kuzcsaks

Leyqute:
Abi. Dem suppose ban am.

We now revert back to airmarkk vs Raumdeuters et all

Lol... I swear.
Something wey we for use divert discussion small, him don go cast everything.

Like 2yrs ban suppose follow am for this thing

Trevor012:
It's Kaka

Na wa ooo....
Must you spoil the fun?

iamoyindamola:
Auba the make shift winger
Some people are stupid by default, have you watched the new Justice League?
Aquaman was awesome

I've heard about it but I've not watched it yet. I'll create time to watch it

Lemme see the awesomeness of aquaman

biomustry:
He thinks he's smart na, autocorrect abi gibberish predictor

Virus99:
Whatsup with you two kiddos...you missed lotta English class

You should have known that's the work of autocorrect and not some hugubugu 3rd world English like your Barca brother
Oh abi the word "Comprehensively" is too big for you

Autocorrect actually spells sentences correctly with correct spellings, but your own "autocorrect " spells things wrongly.

Na wa ooo..
Shey no be "autowrong" we go call am

airmark:
Go and tell that to your brother in shamelessness.

I didn't see where he says he's better than any of our winger

airmark:
Ok.

You can go and rest now sir, and don't drag pulisic with any of our winger wen he's not salah or son

airmark:
Auba is not strictly a winger, read my post well.

Meanwhile in the FA cup final, Pulisic was the man of the match until he got injured and only if you want to deceive yourself you won't accept that you Arsenal fans heaved a sigh of relief immediately he left the pitch. Don't let me dig out posts.

who gave him man of the match before injury? Airmark? Lol.
Was Chelsea winning before he got injured? So how are you sure he'll win the man of the match if he wasn't injured?
You make me laugh.

Last season, Auba was our winger. Whether he's strictly winger or not, that's your business. It's like you saying firmino isn't strictly Liverpool striker cos klopp deployed him as a striker instead of an attacking midfielder.

So auba is our winger last season and he shit on pulisic any day, anytime, twice on Monday

airmark:
Pulisic without injury issues, was better than all your wingers last season and that's a fact.

Pulisic without injury problems in Dortmund was hailed by you, a40 and even Raumdeuter. We didn't see you and Dayo when he was on fire last season telling bullcrap about him being on the bench at Dortmund.

The best you could have done is to tell your friend Raumdeuter that injury was his bane at Dortmund as he showed his quality even against your worthless club, Arsenal in the fa cup final, before he got injured. But No, you must enter trap set by Apari for you and remind us that we bought a low-quality player.

Regarding Thiago Silva, you hurriedly reminded us that you warned us not to buy Silva because he couldn't measure up - Low quality. Thank God we have a coach not named one Roland. He will be in your face for another one season as you weep each time his juniors wear your Arsenic jerseys to leak goals as usual.

You must have forgotten

Fact ke?
Auba was sleeping last season shey?
Even the match you used as gif, auba scored double of what he scored sef

KingTom:
If you never marry, I get fine sister wey I for give you... if you dey drink I get one bottle of wine wey I keep since my graduation 16 years ago. You have finally made sense

.
You na boss na,
I no go mind the wine oo

mostob:
Gbam.. but the #10 shirt was confusing.

the number 10 might be the body of another player. But immediately I saw that face, na Arteta and Fabregas face flash for my eyes

mostob:
Somebody help out with this puzzle. There are two players edited together in the picture below.

I thought I got it right when I decided it is Fabregas and Arteta but I nor understand again when some fans were mentioning Cedric and Mari. moreso, the shirt number sef is confusing....

Haba...
This is Arteta and fabregas mixtape na

Arteta eyes and mouth.
Fabregas face
.


I didn't even see this puzzle before sef.
Just seeing it now.

I'll be glad to hear other people opinion

patrickmuf:
I get your point...

What I'm certain on is that if Manchester United were subject to a transfer ban and Ole came in and made the UCL, some of his fans here will advocate that he be given a life contract and won't stomach any criticism of him but thank God for Abramovich, baba no get time to check time...

Lol...
You might have a point, but we'll never know.
Even tho man u is 2nd, ole fans and supporters have really declined here. I'm sure nobody wants him after this season (maybe aside tre.vor).

How much more if he's 8th(lampard position)?

BikeMan:
FA Cup since when? Trophy of last season still saving him?

Yes... Fa cup was the last match of last season. Arteta was brought for a long term plan, and even tho the result was so so bad, the fa cup and community shield he won was just his saving grace.

patrickmuf:
I'm all for his contract not to be renewed but his constant fvckups is what's making me rant here...Baba just look at the performance yesterday and the team selection, it was like we had UCL commitment against Bayern in midweek but alas, next on the calendar is the international break...

Lol... Even me wey no be man u fan e shock me sef.
I mean, which coach will use his full squad against sociedad 2nd leg wen 4 goals up, but rest his full squad against Leicester during a q/f fa cup match,. Just the week before international fa!

It can only be madness

BikeMan:
How far, what of Arteta? He still deserves to keep his job right?

Fa cup bought Arteta time.
Everybody knows that. He would have been sacked with such a poor form if he didn't win the fa cup

patrickmuf:
Chelsea were obviously struggling and he appeared to have lost the dressing room...

If Ole was in Lampard's position, I am certain the argument here would have been that the season is not yet over and that we are in the last 16 of the UCL...There's always an excuse for the man.

Hmmm.... Do you know arsenal who won only one match between October to December (before meeting Chelsea) was at a certain point 3 points just behind Chelsea. Reason the maths, arsenal who were mostly drawing and losing(even flirting with relegation then) was mathematically 3pts below Chelsea wen Chelsea had a purple patch. And the worst part is they was no sign of progress at all.

Tell me, is that not enough to sack lampard? Did ole go through such a rough patch this season to warrant the sack like lampard.
Ordinary 1 or 2 straight matches ole might lose, he'll be under scrutiny, saying they might sack him and before you know, he'll go on 5 match winning run. Lol. If na you, will you sack such a coach? Did lampard have such a run after he had a purple patch this season?

This is to tell you that while lampard deserved the sack mid season, ole doesnt deserve it.

patrickmuf:
After spending over 300m? Even Titanic wasn't this shaky...

300m is serious money, Ole has no excuse...Losing to Sevilla and now Leicester...I excuse him for losing to Manchester City and to a lesser extent, Chelsea as they're good enough...

Nobody is doubting the bolded, that's why una board suppose catch head sack/relieve him end of season. He doesn't deserve to be in man u after his contract. But like I said (or asked), what is the justification for sacking ole NOW? Because he exited champions league group stage?
Do you know man city, even with their star studded squad and over £200m spent then finished 3rd in their Ucl group yet their coach wasn't sacked cos of that, and that's because they were still in contention for top4 then. Wen they relieved mancini was after the season ended. That's how it should be done.

If ole was in arsenal, Liverpool or Aston Villa position presently, then he's justified to be sacked, not wen he's 2nd.
Reason am na

KingAlabi:
You don marry, if no, I get fine younger sis ripe for marriage, you be man!!

Thanks boss, I never marry oo, but I dey committed loving relationship

patrickmuf:
I assume Tuchel was brought in to steady the ship too but watch Abramovich wield the axe is things go south...

No... Tuchel is a seasoned coach, so he was brought to take Chelsea to the top.
The coach utd should be looking for after Ogs should also be a seasoned coach

patrickmuf:
After 2 years o! A very good coach have have traces of his impront on any team with a year or less but not Ole...

True... But las las, it's result that matters. Ole first full season, 3rd
Second full season, Still in top 4.
You can't sack a manager mid season with this kinda result, especially wen you're brought to steady the ship. He's steadying it and doing it perfectly (just "enoughly" ok), until a better coach takes over.(hopefully for you guys, they won't extend his contract)

I think that's what you guys don't seem to understand from your board. Ole didn't take over a champions' team like Moyes did, he took over a faltering team from mou, so he can't really be judged like Moyes or Mou.

patrickmuf:
Leicester were underdogs so could comfortably adopt a style of play hinged on quick breaks using the pace of Vardy...There we able to win games by using a combination of methods, whilst Vardy's space was a weapon when they defended deep against top teams, Mahrez came to the fore most times when they were up against teams that sit back...

There’s a game they beat Chelsea and Mourinho was mad because he said he had taken note of the move and prepared his defenders to stop the move. Mahrez was the one that should cutting in from the right...So as much as one will want to say Leicester adopted a cou tee attacking approach, they could actually play and had some really quality players...Watching them, you could see them execute so many training ground moves to perfection...

When you watch Manchester United, do you notice any passage of play or movement that reflects the quality of players we have? As a rival fan, be sincere even though I know deep down you rather Ole continues here...

Truthfully, I hardly see any pattern tho. Sometimes, I hardly see training ground moves. Just normal players opening and passes.
It's like players or midfielders, make the pass after the run of attacker
I hardly see that synergy of understanding, that you'll know that this is what was done on training ground routine.

patrickmuf:
Even when I went ahead to state that there's a difference between Ole as a player and a manager? Well, Alabi asked for clarification and got it...

To be honest, it isn't written on that mention handa.lex and Ala.bi both quoted.

But anyways you've clarified it, so it's all good

patrickmuf:
Counter attack is what every team that is inferior resort to in a tie, there's little or no ingenuity on the part of the manager...

You don't expect West Ham to play an open game vs City, they'll sit back and look to hit City on the break. Should we now start praising Moyes for doing anything special should they manage a win playing that kind of football? If yes, what then happens when they're up against Newcastle who will sit back too?

It's laughable to come here and say our style of play is counter attacking...

What style of play did Leicester play in their title winning run in 2016 please?

patrickmuf:
Handelex, I am responsible for what I post and not what you understand...From the bolded, you can see that I was on about their playing careers. The both are legends in their respective clubs but one legend was fired when it was obvious he had lost it but the other is still manager of his club...At least Alabi asked for clarity which is what you should have done and not jump into conclusion...



If you want us to debate their managerial performance, I am up for it...

Hmmm... Reading that, anybody will think you're talking about their managerial career.
To my understanding

1... You started about ole being out of his depth (managerial context)

2.. Lampard did more for Chelsea. wen he was heading to the rock, he was relieved of his duty.(the bolded statement is truly managerial context)

3... People won't stop defending ole cos he's a legend(still managerial context)

Looking at that, with the way you started about their managerial career comparison, and ended with it, you won't blame anyone for thinking you were referring to their managerial careers and not playing career.
Even me, I thought you were talking about their managerial career too.
It would be hard for someone to think you were talking about their playing career wen you didn't even mention it(at least, you weren't explicit enough) in any of the statement

Spy360:
So who was MOTM?

Odegaard

kodded:
I dont think we would have won the cup without his goals



so yes he is the main reason we won the cup

True. He's the key reason.
