Expert17, you know there was a time dinosaurs walked these planet, they were top of the food chain, fearsome predators. But guess what, they're no more, their threats are gone, we can only read about them[history] and all things they did but they can't do shit in our time cos they're no more.

Your MCM is a football dinosaur. Fearsome in his days but not anymore. He's no longer top of the food chain. Just deal with it.

Wow.... You couldn't have illustrated it any better.
Succinctly put

So Luiz is back.
I thought he had 3 match ban

sod09:
Na that save give me small hope that day say we go beat city
I just feel comfortable with him, I had to unfollow him when he went to villa park

I am not expecting Mou to win the league with Spurs but I expect them to be more positive in their play.

Mourinho is a great coach, his method has brought him so much success but ATM, football has evolved...Now, the best form of defence is attack rather than defend as was the case a while back...

I have seen Spurs go on the defensive against Leicester, Everton and the likes only to start attacking when they go a goal or two down and everytime I find myself asking why they didn't start the game on the attack.

Son, Kane and Berghwin/Moura is as good a front 3 as any other trio in the league. Mou should attack more...

Aside the front 3, their midfield is also up there too. Like you said, he should learn to attack more instead of defending and solely relying on individual stars like Kane and son

Lana1:
Thing is many of them are the same ones who wanted us to lose that FA Cup final so that they could see LVG get sacked. Only for them to start celebrating when we won it.

People wey no dey consistent.

Lol... You can imagine

KingAlabi:
They are nothing but that

Toh!!!

sod09:
If they wan sell him na like 40 to 50m
See that xhaka wicked freekick and last season Mahrez snap shot for fa cup.
Those 2 saves can win you matches

I swear... Esp that mahrez shot. Normally he scores that, but what really surprised me was that Martinez even catch it instead of pointing it

kokaneprodigy:
Reason I desperately wanted is to keep him.

And sell Leno??

KingAlabi:
I hope he does

I Wana see how the mou asslickers will rejoice on this thread that he won the freaking carabao cup

Me too I dey wait

Lana1:
Mourinho áss kissers in the dustbin.
I just dey look that one wey dey talk "First full season".

First full season for Fraudinho. But for Ole, na first season.
We all know where "the top 20 manager in the world" ended in his first season at Spurs.

Fraudinho came in after 12 games to finish 6th - Excuses.
Ole came in after 17 games to finish 6th - Fraud.

At least Ole is not swimming in mid-table waters.

We will see where the special once finishes in his "first full season".
For the mental health of Mourinho áss kissers, I hope wins that Carabao Cup for their sake.

Lol,
Me sef just dey look all of dem dey laff

handelex:
Lol.. Sarcasm bro.
Whoever doesn't believe Mou is past his best, na them sabi, his recent jobs proves it.

Lol... That your sacarsm get PhD oo

Thank goodness you see it the way I see it @ bolded

KingAlabi:
Na wa oh

This thing don escalate

I am in for the blood

I just dey watch dem.
Same people who complained mourinho wanted to buy old men perisic and mandzukic, with boateng is the same people saying mourinho wasn't supported in the transfer window

Same people crying then that mourinho was playing drab football for man u and that he should go it's still same people saying mourinho intentionally played man u owners to get sacked

Same people slating pochetino for not winning titles with Tottenham (forgetting that he's the one who made them this relevant) are now saying the same squad is too inferior for mourinho to win titles.

You can see the hypocrisy.

If they call dem mou fan boys now, dem go dey wail

obonujoker:
Pep didn't perform in his first season in the EPL.. nor Klopp nor even clownOle.... But but Agenda against Mou must agend

Did you say agenda? Lol.
It was you guys who brought up excuse for mourinho soft landing in case he disappoints, not us.

Pep first full season... 3rd
Klopp first full season... 4th
Clownole first full season... 3rd
But according to you, they all didn't perform

Let's see how this season pans out for mourinho

obonujoker:
Leave Mou alone.

This is his first full season in Tottenham

Lol...
Never knew he needed first full season during his Chelsea stint or man u stint or inter stint or Madrid stint.

E be things sha

CapitalCee:
Dont mind them. One was even mentioning Klopp as one of the managers who are better than Mourinho. I pointed it out to him that Mourinho as a manager is more accomplished than Klopp. He arrogantly laughed me off.

Yes Mourinho can be annoying sometimes, and his pattern of play might not be conventional but on 3 managers in the last 3 decades can say they are better than him with confidence. They are Sir Alex Ferguson and Pep Guardiola. Personally i am Adding Ancellotti. The rest are below him. Hate him or love him

seems you're misunderstanding the context. Nobody doubt that mourinho isn't arguably one of the greatest managers of all time. The question is, is he past his best presently or is he the man that can take clubs to a higher height presently? That's the issue on ground, not bringing in klopp, or Ferguson or pep and comparing who's the greatest.

handelex:
Don't worry mate, we'll see the best of Mou next season, this season is just a one off

Hopefully, we'll see it and I hope he proves me wrong
Cos I certainly believe he's past his best

obonujoker:
Talk about Wenger first before Mou

why? Is Wenger coaching any club?
Is it that you guys love talking out of context or you just love trolling without reason?

Expert17:
Leave Mourinho, face Wenger first.

Mourinho has won everything in club football, allow the man rest.

was Wenger the topic of discussion??

Expert17:
58 years old,can still coach for 20 years, I don't buy that rubbish past his best.

He has nothing to prove in club football.

If he retires today, he will sit comfortably among top 1-20 greatest managers of all time.

who's doubting the bolded? Even Wenger is among the top 20 greatest EPL coaches. Does that mean he wasn't past his best as at wen he retired?

And you saying he has nothing to prove is wrong. He still has to prove it for Tottenham. That's why they paid him and hired him and saw him as an upgrade to pochetino. They need trophies and good footie not the drab football they're watching.

Wen I mean he's done, I don't mean age wise but in taking team to higher level

Expert17:
Even Arsenal fans dey blast Mourinho

No allow me bring Mourinho and Wenger stats

so mourinho has more wins and trophies than Wenger... So??
I shouldn't voice my opinion cos of that? You're not serious

Expert17:
A negative coach won't have Mournho' s records and trophies.

He is not the first Top manager that went through bad period, Van Gaal, Arsene Wenger, Ancelloti, etc

Long before arsene retired, most arsenal fans knew he's past his best and wanted him to gerrout of the club.

Mou is past his best, nothing like trying or bad period. If you don't think mou is past his best, that's your cup of tea and I won't begrudge you with that. But recent managerial results proves he's past his best. He should just retire, if possible go and coach a national team.

How you people still think mou still got it is beyond me

KingAlabi:
Mou fan boys don't fail to spring up surprises

I swear... This surprise na really Valentine surprise

BikeMan:
In what world does a team concede only one goal per game?

When you count the number of goals a team has conceded, are you not talking about the number of clean sheets the defense has kept too?

No, goal conceded is goal conceded. Clean sheet is clean sheet.

In fact are they not words and opposite.

In football terms "how does GA relates to clean sheet"?
Just agree you goofed on this one then carry on with the other argument with King Alabi instead of trying to turn amala

sod09:
What Leno can do Martinez will do better
Na this kind performance I like
If this guy no start for Argentina, thunder fire them
E fit collect golden glove sef, the guy just they drink clean sheet like water e no need defenders na him they carry them

I'm sure he's already Argentina keeper. No worthy contender I guess.


Mehn, Aston Villa mk bargain for that 20milla oo

sod09:

.

Shey you no go turn Aston Villa fan like this las las

mostob:
Sorry for the late reply bro...
A midfield of ESR, Xhaka and Odegaard will be run ragged.
Except Arteta want to go toe to toe.
My front Three is kinda fluid.. Martinelli and Pepe will rotate the top 9 role but Gabi will be starting there.

Haba bro, I understand.

if Arteta wants to go toe-to-toe with them esp hitting them on the counter, that midfield trio is the best bet. Odegaard should slightly be with xhaka while ESR in advanced position. I notice ESR doesn't have long pass accuracy reason I'm putting him in the Advanced of the 3. Both ESR and odegaard has good work rate, so I guess they should hold their own with intricate passes and exchanges

Honestly, we have more quality than them. They just have the work rate and system, but if we can attack them, we'll surely hit them.

As for your front three, I'll gladly pick those 3 especially with the arrangement, but we know with Arteta, it's never possible sadly. Not when Auba and lacazette is available.

KingAlabi:
You sef see am too?

Tottenham an average squad ?

Wonders Sha never truly end!!!

Surprising how pochetinno is slated for not winning with this squad, but same squad now is still too inferior for mourinho to win anything.

Tbh, I never saw the excuse for mourinho coming

Godsfavour78:
see your life mtcheeeew.

like she said, that one no follow. That might be bad, but you can't term it evil. E no follow at all

BikeMan:
Lol, you're counting the number of goals a team as conceded. When teams don't concede, what does the keeper and defense keep?

Think dude, think!

Lol.. Do you know it's possible for sevilla to concede only one goal a game?

I know say you wan twist am to clean sheet , but less goals conceded doesn't necessarily mean more clean sheets

larride:
This Lamela is a clown

I've always disliked the guys game right from the time I saw his play at Tottenham back in 2013/2014. How he's still a Tottenham player till now is even a miracle sef

timbros:
So you now agree that if your narrative is fact, mine is too. Good.

*facepalm*

timbros:
Alisson in over 2 years at Liverpool haven't conceded 7 goals in a match.

That's a fact and that proves that if Alisson had been in the Aston Villa match, they wouldn't have conceded 7.

2 years is enough time to use as sample. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I ask again, is there something I am missing? How is your narrative a fact but mine is not?

That's a fact and that's why I didn't dispute it with you. High tendency that if Allison was in the Aston Villa match, they wouldn't have conceded 7.

So also, do you agree to the fact that vvd present in this Liverpool squad, they wouldn't have lost 3 straight matches and also wouldn't have lost 3 straight home matches?
