United mata don tire person 😁

ChristineC:
put that mustard in your mouth right now and chew it.
the only thing you will raise at the end of the season is "the cup" in your hands 😜

Fixed!!

I know you mistakenly omitted that

andrewbaba44:
No be everybody play that one

So the remaining ones wey no play am that day, you wan complete am for them today shey??

Griffon:
FR the conclusion of that argument is encapsulated in his submission.

There’s no one dimensional way to defend, rather you stick to what works for you. Some CBs are great when it comes to going toe to toe with a forward, while some are great at cutting off supply to the forward, like you have to literally watch as they step up and intercept a pass that was directed to you.

VVD’s style is more of ball reading. The time he takes to drift backwards, is simply him buying time to decide when is perfect to make that timely interception, block or even a tackle. It’s not a bad approach. John Terry was effective with same approach and excelled at it and this was largely because he lacked pace, so couldn’t charge forward.

Everyone must not charge forward, unless you’re playing in a system that demands such.

💯💯

Point when 4 others are all pointing

That's the indiscipline I'm talking about.

In arsenal, Odegaard point, Jorginho point, Gabriel point and Rice point.

But you'll never see all four pointing at once. That's discipline

Ibime:
Maguire plays the same position as Gabriel so he will be where Maguire is. You don't see centrebacks running outside the box when defending corner, they mark opposition centrebacks or striker according to their height. Na short men dey stationed outside box

Thank you.
I don't know how Rau.mdeuter expect CB to start chasing player outside the box.

Trevor012:
I love how city and Arsenal fans are putting hope in us to take points of Liverpool. Nor be only United fans go dey disappointed today 😂

andrewbaba44:
Financial advice of the day

Stake your life savings on Manchester United to win Liverpool at 4:85 odds and thank me later

Cheers

Which other life savings you want make person stake when everything don burn on Chelsea Vs Man U??

raumdeuter:
I mean if Gabriel was in that Man utd defense where everyone was pointing

What will he do

Except he's near Palmer then yea.
But Gabriel would not leave his CB position to start racing out of the box to tackle Palmer, he'll certainly point

raumdeuter:
If Gabriel was to be in that defense I know he will donate himself to Palmer in that move and not point to others to do it for him

If your most experienced defender is jumping in front of shots you won't be pointing

That move is outside the box when everything is inside. I doubt Gabriel would do that. Instead it's either Rice, Odegaard or anyone would offer himself.

That just tells how indisciplined and non-chalant Man U were on that day

Kiwior didn't play on Wednesday, yet his other back 3 teammates played. He didn't even come as a sub. I took it as Arteta giving him a rest.

Against Brighton, he didn't start again, neither did he come on as a sub.

One thing I know is that Arteta takes match fitness seriously so it's surprising to see Kiwior not Play any of these two games when Fit.

So, I'm thinking, Are you sure Arteta won't start Zinny against Bayern? Or am I overthinking it??

Fkforyou:
Na him comment off me pass 🤣🤣.
Next in line, na our resident Nairaland trolls.

I no even send those ones, I see them as nuisance, nothing more.

TrebleChamp:
I no know where you dey pluck this high hope from, i wish i fit pluck too but this team don kill almost all United fans high spirit. So carry your cross biko.
We win tomorrow we celebrate, we lose we wail small and move on 😁...

Na today oo
You don even throwaway hope sotey you no know say na today Una get match

Anyways, I've explained the reason I have hope. Even though na like mustard seed, I'll hold onto it

afrodoc2:
You go explain tire!

raumdeuter:
Is that not what VVD dey do? Will Gabriel Ramos Vidic Boateng be in that defence and be pointing at someone to do defending

It just epitomises that Man u are indisciplined. They don't have followers.

How can everybody point and nobody is taking action. That's abuse of "pointing"

TrebleChamp:
We go try am, do your worst

Bros na beg I dey beg na.

You don ever see me beg Una laidis

mostob:
We should be afraid TBH.
That guy lives in the world or inversion. If em curse you, go and do thanksgiving in the church. And if em pray for you, better go swallow Abido shaker and gandusa.

Today na Sunday, I'll ensure to do that for Arsenal.

Abeg, make Una no try this nonsense tomorrow ooo

When you take Pointing to the next level.

Everybody deh point, nobody wan mark

daveP:
We'll need new haterz o🤣🤣🤣
No way they're retiring 7games early.

Dem deh wait us for front, no worry

daveP:
Yunno me no dey hide face. Even Starboy go colet🤣🤣🤣🤣
Make i mellow small sha

daveP:
Slowly we don dey equal many Invincible stats o. And season never finish.

Im glad the naysayers are in Acceptable stage

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Even Trey deh praise arsenal

Roland17:
In comparison to Liverpool and City, our run of games to finish the season is demonic to put kindly.

Really demonic but surprisingly I no dey fear. I believe the boys will do it.

I'm just hoping for a Liverpool dropped point

daveP:
Na cos all of us na Arsenal fans na. So i expected we'll all grab that😎

But it's unfair on GJ sha

Vischy:
[/b]

Jodera ,you're the most sensible arsenal fan l have seen in a long while.

Always spitting facts without sentiments.

Kudos 👏👏

Thank you boss

mostob:
We are saying the same thing. bro.

That's life bro... hossanah today, nail him tomorrow.

Lol.. okay. I didn't get it at first

raumdeuter:
Actually Chelsea fans will be pointing to them as examples of what they need in their team. See how many players left Chelsea and their fortunes turned for better. Same way they claimed Rudiger was the beginning and end of their problems, today he dey Madrid balling

Lol, exactly.

Na Jorginho dem for even drool over pass sef

Yesterday Hens.ben told me it's Jorginho (and partey) that normally frees Rice to play his game and that that's what Caicedo lacks at Chelsea. I just do as if I no see am.

But then it struck me: So Jorginho dey free person? Same Jorginho they claimed you need to park the bus in order to cover him?

This life sha

Roland17:
I been dey get hope for United side but Iamoyin.damola say make I commot mind say the Dutch bald fraud go kill my hope

Even with Man u worst form, Liverpool couldn't beat them twice, even drawing at Anfield sef.

That's enough reason for me to have hope oo. Just a little faith and hope like a mustard seed is all we need

mostob:
That Liverpool own na miscommunication sha.... Saliba is not that unserious.

I didn't say he's unserious tho neither did I imply such.

I knew that day it's miscommunication reason why I didn't blame him that day. My point is that if it cast very few people will be forgiving and they'll forget about how he's been "Rolls-Roycing" for years

raumdeuter:
Leading is by example. Will any defender not want to face shot when he see Gabriel doing the same
But when its VVD he will be pointing, if others are also pointing, then who will do the work

Instead of Gabriel blocking the shot make he come point to Rice or Saliba to come block shot under the pretext say he is Nokia communicator or Putin leadership

I've seen Vvd block shots. This one no be talk na.

You think Liverpool fans will rate him if he doesn't engage? Heck even Haaland confirms that Vvd is the defender he's afraid the most, you think it's because of running away, shadow marking and communication without engagement that will make Halaand talk that thing?

drisham:
They were part of the problem🥲

Not like they were fantastic that season

Truly they weren't that fantastic but the thing is that if those two hadn't played for Chelsea and with the way they're playing for arsenal now, you wouldn't have mind to have them in your team.


Good team and structure really brings out the best of players sha

raumdeuter:
Whoever engages has the right to direct others not the one that will be turning nyansh at attackers. The other defenders sef will be willing to go to war for him, See as dem jump on am to celebrate him

See as Gabriel faced the shot with his chest while VVD will be turning nyansh

You cannot be turning nyash to shots while pointing to others to go do work

At least, this proofs that pointing and directing is not nonsense
