We are middle class bro...

Since we are not in the Tues or Wed category, they use us to advertise EPL.

Na wa o. I just hope Emery doesn't over-use Aubameyang o

Spy360:
Also Because of the front three one of Ozil and Ceballos has to start. No need to pull any hand brakes. It should be all out attack. I mean it's Sheffield, even Robin Hood could escape with 3points.

talking about midfield of who to start or not is what I'm really tired tbh. Emery have made me just give up on us having a set midfield, always rotating. It's like he does tum-bo tum-bo there every match day. So any person wey him put, me I've accepted it o. I just wanna see weda bellerin and Tierney will start.

By the way, why are we always playing Monday night football when we're playing Europa on Thurs. This is the 2nd or 3rd it's happening on a Europa week. Is it fair? Cos I don't understand

Spy360:
This is the day the Lord has made for Tierney and Bellerin to start.

Auba.............. Laca.............. Pepe
Guen.............. Ozil.............. Xhaka
Tierney.. Luiz.. Chambers. Bellerin
....................... Leno........................

Something tells me Ozil will start after having so much rest. Lacazette will return today, he is fit. Chambers may likely get his rightful position in our back four. Fully deserved, I only hope he doesn't screw it.

I hope this formation is what our gaffer uses. If not for anything, at least cos of that backline

MATCH PREVIEW VS SHEFFIELD UNITED : TIERNEY STARTS

Arsenal heads to Sheffield in Gameweek Nine after an unbeaten eight-game run before the international break.

Arsenal currently holds third place at the moment but its still an unsecured position because a loss would drop us to the 8th position. Then again, a win could see us climb Man City, as we’re just a single point behind them.

On the other hand, Sheffield United...

Hmmm... Manchester city that won their match we will topple or which one? Moreover, we're 5th o.

Addressing or speaking to a large number of people in your dreams means greatness.

Those other dreams are symptoms of a spirit spouse probably contracted through indiscriminate sex or contact/involvement with, or dedication to marine spirits. There are articles and prayer points to deal with both spirit spouse and marine spirits on my personal deliverance blog, www.ggcrc..com

Please, I've a dream last night.it was in the night, I bought recharge card of #800(#500, 200 and 100#). Immediately I bought it and paid, I turned back to go home. The it all the paper airtime slipped from my hand and fell off. As I put on my torch light to pick it up, I didn't see it nearby. I was still looking for it, even traced my search back to the shop, yet, I didn't see it. I was still searching for it till I woke up.
Please, Is there any spiritual connotation to this?

iamoyindamola:
he's the one

Wow! That's really great. He deserves it. I don't even know the stoopid place I saw matip won the Pfa. Lol

iamoyindamola:
Congratulations to auba
Player of the month...5 in 4
Could have been 6 if he didn't dash Pepe
Good month for the club as a whole, I'm still looking for first Emery manager of the month

did Auba win player of the month? I thought it was Matip?

iamoyindamola:
fixed

Well. Both sides made a lot of sense if we look deeply what each sides are saying.
In as much as we're grinding out results, the pattern of play, ceding possession to opponents and allowing that much shots at our goal area is not something that's to be seen at an aspiring top4 club. Yes it's grinding out results, but can we bet that it'll be sustainable in the long run. Also, the issues of coward midfield is what is paining most guys here. A coach will put 3dms, against Tottenham at home, and when we concede first, he removes one of d dms and put a ceballos(an AM), for us to start attacking again. Same against Man utd. Once we equalise, back to drab football (noticed it against man utd, Tottenham, didn't watch Aston villa game tho). I mean, C'mon, is he going for a draw? See the amount of shots he's allowing from midtable teams against us, and you feel if we play like that against a clinical team, we won't lose or draw? So I feel that's what most people are on about, the process, not about the result. Same happened in man utd vs Chelsea game, most people saw over the 4-0 man utd gave chelsea, some man utd fans saw the glaring flaw in their team and wasn't carried away by the results. Some Chelsea fans saw the process in play that day and wasn't carried away by the results either (that's how the "positive fc" came about), now we can see how both teams are panning out. So I feel that's how sod and others are feeling too, same with me too tho. Can this process of incessant shots against us and teams pressing us and auba feeding on scraps be sustainable in the long run? If it's is cup, yes, I might agree, but through a 38 game a season long? Hmm. The midfield is his undoing, tho I'll wait for Tierney and bellerin to come back, but if he doesn't sort that midfield, I'm afraid, there's nothing much our fullbacks can do(I hope I'm wrong tho).

Where I support fkhalifa is about meeting Chelsea in that final. I know I was against that "all England final" cos I prefer meeting Frankfurt to Chelsea. Arsenal have a tendency of beating all these average clubs not in England in any European competition, but you see all these top clubs in England? Man utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, if they see us in any European competition, they have a way of dealing with us, cos will I say, the players know how to get to us. A little ruffle here and a push there, and b4 you know it arsenal will start crumbling, but most of these average European clubs don't know it, that's why I can safely say we can beat them. There's a reason deeney says we lack cojones and most of these England top teams(esp Chelsea and man utd knows that), it's just that it was just deeney who pointed it out. I hope Emery will change that mindset from our players (you can imagine wen a captain says "we're scared against phucking Watford", after going 2goals up). Lol.

So all in all, I believe Emery is making us to see arsenal in different perspective, and with time, especially when our two fullbacks is back, then I can now really say Emery out. But we'll also all agree that he's greatest undoing is xhaka for torreira(thank goodness guen have improved greatly). I feel once xhaka is benched, 80% of our problem is solved

Finallydead:
Yeah but it's only a farce. Look critically at OPs post you'll see he's really trying to replace some of Jesus' teachings with a more "progressed" teaching of Paul. Again and again he makes comparisons towards this. That's what I'm very much opposed to. A lot of people think Paul brought more light to what Jesus brought and as such we should move on to that not realising Paul's letters' scope was limited to gentile churches while Jesus's went as far as the end of the age and were from a higher perspective. And such people will often promote Paul's teaching and try to look for how to make Jesus' agree with it(in their attempt to not discard Jesus'). But It's a world apart from taking Jesus' teaching literally and getting to see Paul's agree with it (which we should tend to). That's why I suggested the safe approach in my post. Again I stress that we are not progressing from Jesus' teaching to Paul's (just because the gospels come before the epistles) but from Paul's to Jesus' because Jesus spoke from the higher perspective. So u see that OP and I only seem to agree but are still worlds apart. It is VERY dangerous for our spiritual lives to remove Jesus' teaching from being our foundation or to at any point progress from it to any other's, we should only look to see them in the teachings of others. Believe me, this makes a great difference in our lives.

Now this is great and I very much agree with what you said. This is the constructive criticism that is required and reading both you and OP's own I personally see what you're talking about

OrDan:
You have said well. I was surprised too, reading through comments.

I was just so so surprised. I'm sure even the op go weak sef reading all the comments. Lol

dabossman:
Too many angry people on these streets in this economy. Most Nigerians have no chill.

.
Seriously, we've got no chills at all

Finallydead:
Ok. what would u say about my post?

Yeah, I agree with your post in terms of criticism. But in the end, both of you are saying same thing. Which is Paul isn't contradicting what Christ says, but Paul is expressing all what Christ says in clearer terms. And if any one feels contradictory, then the help of the holy spirit is needed to explain it more for better understanding. So basically both of you're saying same thing.
What op was just saying was that he's debunking the misconceptions which says that Paul writings and speech are contradicting that of Christ

dabossman:
I can't entirely blame them. The initial examples were not exactly contradictory, especially when you understand the context in which Jesus and Paul spoke. Even I was beginning to get irritated by the write up, but decided to see what the OP planned to end his analysis with, and then realized what he was actually trying to achieve.

I think it would have helped if he had stated somewhere at the beginning that his aim was trying to disprove an existing misconception. Just like you would do when writing a project or term paper. People get very sensitive when it comes to matters of their fate, and it seemed the OP was trying to create contradictions were many people didn't see any.

What you said is true tho. From what you just said and from peoples' reactions to op, you'll find out that Nigerians lack patience. Lol. What you did ought to be the normal thing what others suppose to do too, I mean, you've started it, why not finish before attacking someone. But they just read the first line and gbam...attack!!.
The mistake the op made was to make that statement of disproving an existing misconception which he didn't do(like you pointed out), and that's where everything started from.

Finallydead:
Are u saying what he wrote is perfect and cannot be criticised in any aspect? I wouldn't say so.

I'm not saying it's perfect nor can't be criticized. That's from people who read it to constructively criticise from where the feel needs criticism. But from responses been aim towards the op, you'll see criticism like:
1. Op you don't know what you're saying, Paul and Christ are saying same thing.
2. This OP needs understanding from the holy spirit, how will you say Paul is contradicting Christ.
And so on and so forth.
Now if you read fully what the op wrote, you'll find out that those people who gave all those responses, if only would have been little patient to the end, wouldn't have given such a response. And that's where I'm coming from.

Gosh! I'm truly amazed. The fact that above 80% of people who commented here actually criticized the op really means they never truly read it from beginning to the end. Nigerians and no-reading culture is what will finally finish us in this country. Some are attacking the op, some are insulting him, all because they didn't read to the end, perhaps, just headlines and the first two paragraphs. It's really pathetic.
To those that didn't read, I sorry for una!!

patrickmuf:
Very funny, didn't Fergie fail to qualify from a UCL group that had Lille and Villareal? Didn't Fergie lose a derby embarrassingly? Didn't MK Dons beat us?

You have found your voice now that Spurs are obviously having things tough. Though Poch hasn't won a trophy, Tottenham board are satisfied because they haven't exactly backed him in the transfer market. It was folks like you that was saying Sarri hasn't won anything before he came to Chelsea and won the Europa League. Now he is at Juventus with the financial muscle and quality players at his disposal, can your bet that Sarri won't win at least the league come the end of the season?

The problems at Spurs is not caused by Poch, you have disgruntled players who deservedly should be earning more but are on a ridiculously low wages compared to their peers in other teams who in most cases are less untalented and on the other hand you have Levy who is too stubborn to realize that at some point which is now, the club have got to break their wage structure to keep their top players happy and performing. If Erikson was at United, he'd be earning at least 250-300k weekly same with Alderweireld, Kane, Son etc.

Exactly what I wanted to say, especially the sarri example. Even tuchel that haven't won anything is winning league at PSG, yet folks prefer him to poch cos he won at PSG. Not thinking if poch is there, most probably, every season will be at least, winning a domestic treble or double.

eph12:
What's counter press?

Lol.
Pressing and choking of opponents and hitting them on counter. Just a mild ghen ghen pressing.

eph12:
So was Mourinho and OGS backed financially?
What's Tottenham style of play under Poch? So how many years of setting the foundation do we give Poch before l another manager can now come in and win trophies?

1. everyone knows mou was financially back unless last season. OGS, I can't say. 2. Tottenham style of play is counter press of previous seasons. Non existent this season. 3. At least towards his first full season, you'll see a direction and pattern absent now during OGS reign.

LostMyZeal:
aswear down...
putting those 2 and even trying to compare
wtf is there to compare
can't believe what I just read

...na so we see am my brother o

eph12:
If United were to go for a coach now, why should we pick Poch? What would you expect from him?

blending youths with talents. Style of play and identity. And even though he might not take you people to the highest of highs, but the foundation set at united will be easier for the next coach to manage. And above all, you people will be sure of top4 and identity. What I know is that he'll be backed financially in man u than at Tottenham

spillo1:
Oasis is usually reasonable. Am sure he's joking around. We will dump ole if we have the chance of landing Poch

Lol, I knew he was just trolling when he replied me. That's why I didn't bother to reply him back, cos I know it'll be another back and forth talk. Cos from his response to me and others, he's already decided, so no need saying anything.

spillo1:
Klopp's last season at Dortmund vibes. He's taken them as far as he can on a small net spend. I think he'll be a big success at his next club, but Spurs won't make top 4 this season.

Exactly. Spurs might not mk top4 this season, but saying poch is average as ogs cos of this season which haven't even gone halfway sef is being sentimental. Nobody says poch is world class but the work he's done at Tottenham can't be neglected just cos of this season.

Oasis007:



B & H is leading Spurs by 2 Goals to Nil. I never believe in Poch, and I am right on this One. He's as average as OGS!

I see this case of poch as that of klopp. Klopp in Dortmund almost relegated them even after over achieving with the team the previous years. Same as poch now. At Dortmund, he(klopp) has only Bayern to contend with for the title, in England, poch have at least, 2-3 teams to contend with for the title (varying strength in leagues). When klopp almost relegated Dortmund, I'm sure you would still be one of those against his appointment then when he was available, but look at klopp now. Because of a bad season, and maybe players no longer in tune with his tactics again (same as klopp final season in Dortmund), maybe the reason for his struggle, that doesn't negate the fact that if he comes to man u, he would struggle here too. I mean, you guys have the structure and finance for poch to succeed here. I won't write poch off and I'll advice you not to also.
Another case is Leicester (Brendan Rodgers), but I won't go there.

hensben:
That is the problem with these anti-chelsea. They make reckless statement forgetting that it will come to bite them in the ass.

True. When he was asking aside goals, what's lampard known for, he didn't know one needs to watch lampard to see that he was truly great. When it reach scholes turn now, it's now, "you need to watch scholes during his days". Lol.
Both players are exceptionally good, and those who really watched both play will know both aren't over hyped. But of course, for clicks and like, some people will just want to bring a legend down!

TLona1:
Very much explainable.

Hazard thrived as Chelsea and was sold to Madrid to improve their game play and help them win matches. This was why he was bought for a whooping 100 million.

Herrera on the other hand left for PSG as a fúcking FREE AGENT.

Still trying to understand how and why a player who performed excellently well in a club left as a free agent.

As a Man UTD fan, were you satisfied with Herrera's all round performance? Answer this please.

was lewandowski a flop wen he left Dortmund for Bayern?

kokaneprodigy:
keyword “exceptional”.
Guen has improved his forward game but not “exceptional”

But I get it that he’s his most performing signing so far, that alone says a lot about how shîtty Emery has been in the transfer window.

lol, yeah. I get your point. But I feel the players have talents, but it's just the way he's utilizing them that's killing the players. That's how I see it

kokaneprodigy:
keyword “exceptional”.
Guen has improved his forward game but not “exceptional”

lol. In that case, no one has been exceptional.

Roland17:
Pepe has underperformed thus far but I am not going to up on him because I believe he is talented enough to succeed in the EPL. I think he is going through the phase of understanding the speed, intensity and spacing in the EPL. He came with a price tag and that is definitely going to play into the justified expectation for him to prove his worth early and for a player who has never commanded that amount of attention, it can become difficult to shake off and just be yourself instead of trying to impress the gallery to prove you are worth the price. Sadly, I don't trust Emery enough to be the one to help Pepe navigate this phase. He would have to rely on himself or someone close within or outside the team.

Me also, I'm not giving up on him o. But one thing he needs to do is to try and take risks as he was doing at lille. Dribble forward more, take deadly shot more...he's has the talent. With time it must surely showcase. But with his nonchalant attitude of not wanting to beat defenders instead opting for a cross which he's not known for, then even his own facets of his game might disappear with time. I just pray he turns up for good, I'm not sure, as you said, emery is as patient as Wenger. I mean look at how he relegated mustafi and ozil. I can't remember Wenger exiling you even if he doesn't like you.
