Yes, men are at an advantage.

The only place I see cheating as a deal breaker for women is on twitter. In real world, women live with it till other issues like domestic violence come up.

By real world you mean Nigeria and specifically Africa. Outside of Africa it's a real deal breaker with heavy consequences.

andrewbaba44:
Good question

English is currently better than Spain in terms of talent. And saka is better than yamal so he won’t start

Funny thing is when composing that post I wanted to mention 2 top Spanish winger and none came to my head. Only Nico Williams came to mind and he also a young player like Yamal.

What would now happen if Arsenal ends the season trophy less. Will the fans still trust Arteta or start having doubts? Cc Jodera. With Klopp leaving and Pep having just one season left in his contract, we need to start getting our shit together to pounce and reclaim our spot.

hensben:
Yamal already playing for Spanish national team.

Who is Yamal competing with?

Jodera:
The first leg was 10x better but it was still boring!!!!!
Man City without Kdb and Rodri and you think we won't take the game to them at our home?
That there would have been the definition of cowardice.


Second leg have Rodri and Kdb in midfield and you want us to play our game at Etihad without watching our backs?

Na you try pass

NB: Anfield or no anfield, a Midfield of endo, Jones and Szobo, while an attack of Gakpo and Diaz, there's no way we won't take the game yi them. Can't compare it to Kdb, Rodri, Silva and Haaland one bit

You are even admitting what have been saying. You went ultra defensive because Arteta didn't trust his team to go head to head with City at the Etihad unlike in previous matches last season and earlier this season when Arsenal took the game to them.

BlueRayDick:
The joke is on u to think Arteta started playing Pep 2 seasons ago.

Somebody that whipped Pep on the way to win 2020 FA cup against ur team in the final is who u think should play to the whims of an unknown kimbeast just to prove he's a king Kong against a man he knows how intelligent he is tactically?

Just dey play!

When you realize you are typing out of point let me know.

Roland17:
Which top 6 is Chelsea is a part of? I hope it is not the EPL sha.

The last time I checked, Chelsea gallantly finished 12th last season and are properly logged 11th this season, so which top 6 list be dis?

Top 6 of the biggest clubs in England and amongst the 6 English clubs to have won the Champions league.

The list goes like this
Manchester United
Liverpool
Aston villa
Chelsea
City
Nottingham forest.

Can you show us your club in that list ?

BlueRayDick:


So it's no longer cowardice but the number of Eason he's spent as coach Abi ? We are getting somewhere .

Arteta over the years has deployed different strategies to get the better of Pep but he's not been succesful thus far. Today he went back to the drawing board and he's able to hold Pep's free scoring team to a stalemate but u are here weeping on his behalf.

We will gladly take his cowardice that's produce 4 out of possible 6 points for us this season . Stop crying more than the bereaved. If e easy , do am!

What a funny post. Dropping my observation on a match I watched has turned to weeping because it involves your team? You better stop going to other clubs thread if people dropping their observation pains you that much. I am in my club thread not yours.

You have even admitted Arteta changed his approach and set up from the Arsenal we have seen over the last two seasons for today game which was what I said. He didn't trust his team to deliver with their usual attacking set up so decided to go ultra defensive.

Jodera:
What is the ish really?
Is it that the game is boring or that arsenal possession was low?

Cos if it's that the game that's boring you're arguing for, I can bring you receipts of posters here who claimed that the first leg was really boring even though we won


And it's only Naivety that will make you think that we'll go to Etihad and take the game to them.
Well, you're neutral, you don't care about the specifics. It's not your fault

You went to Anfield this season and took the game to Liverpool and that's a scarier ground than Etihad.

The first leg was 10 times better than what Arsenal served today. Arteta set up today was cowardly which made the game boring.

BlueRayDick:
This is Arsenal vs Man city FA cup 2020

U obviously don't know Arteta enough . U can obviously see the passes and possession Abi ?

Some of u ehn, na only chelsea match una dey watch and one or two star matches

What does a match from Arteta first or 2nd season has do do with anything? How is that related to the discussion.

Jodera:
Okayy, then I will tell you for free.

Anytime you see arsenal Vs Man City (at least under Guardiola), don't bother watching cos it'll always be a borefest.

Community shield and First leg should give you that hint. Us winning teams 4 and 5 Nils won't change that

Free advice so that next time you won't be disappointed

You don't need to lie just to defend Arteta tactics today.


All your matches last season was interesting. The community shield and the reverse fixture was also good because Arsenal didn't respect city and went for it unlike today.

Community shield: possession was 55% to city and 45% to Arsenal. Passes were 590 to City and 485 to Arsenal.

First leg: Possession was 49% to Arsenal and 51% to City. Passes were 500 to Arsenal and 521 to city.

Today fixture: Possession was 73% to City and 27% to Arsenal. Passes were 700 to City and 265 to Arsenal.

That says it all. Be happy with your point but don't act like Arteta didn't change his whole approach for today fixture.

Jodera:
And what was the scoreline in both cases?

At the end of the day, we were the one ridiculed after the "interesting" game. We were called all sort of names.

If you think we won't learn from experience instead of going gung ho everytime we meet man city, then it means we're not learning enough.

We have 18 teams to play the interesting game with, so let's leave Man City out of it. Afterall I remember most pundits saying if we'd just been compact last season and not lost twice, maybe we'd have been champions.

The Koko is the result

This is the reason I said you Arsenal fans are just being defensive for no reason. To us neutrals the Koko is an attacking game of football which we didn't get thanks to Arteta Cowardice. The game was a borefest. No one said you shouldn't be happy with your point so don't tell us not to be disappointed with that eyesore.

Jodera:
The kind of play MCI Vs Liv and MCI Vs Ars is playing are two different games. How you guys aren't seeing it is what I don't understand.

Liverpool is always ghen ghen and swift counter so any game against Man city or arsenal will always be interesting.

Meanwhile Man City and Arsenal are known for control and territorial domination. Same style of play. Any of the team who gains possession, the other will retreat and this makes for a boring game. First leg, the reverse was the case as arsenal was mostly dominating while Man City retreated.

Anybody expecting end to end with Man city/Ars haven't observed enough.

If we are both ghen ghen, then the game would have been interesting

This excuse doesn't make any sense. All your games last season was exciting when Arteta played his normal game. Even the reverse fixture was 10 times better than the borefest we watched today because Arsenal took the game to City. It's obvious Arteta didn't trust his team to go head to head with city so decided to focus on just being defensive and stopping City.

These Arsenal fans are still not getting it. You are just being defensive for no reason. No one is telling you not be happy with your point. We neutrals were expecting two of the best attacking teams going head to head to deliver another scintillating attacking display like the Liverpool and City game. Today game was boring as hell with one team comfortable sitting back and only getting 23% of the ball which is unusual of Arsenal this season. I mean you went to Anfield with your usual game plan and dragged possession with them having 49%. Why was Arteta so scared of City that he changed everything.

oliverano:
Even Messi and Ronaldo had off days....

Halaand and Mbape are both world class players but one is not like the other. My comment on Halaand isn't based on today's game but what I've observed especially this season.

For today, all credit goes to the Arsenal defence.

Halaand's game depends so much on good supply that's why in the toughest games so far so good he hasn't really been spectacular. Mbape needs service too but he can go solo and disrupt play.

You will know the way city plays when teams are sitting deep doesn't really suit Haaland style. Just today he was making so many runs that were ignored just for the ball to be recycled and passed back to a center back. Bernardo silva was guilty of this a lot. Haaland can also go solo and bully defenders when played to his strength

Jodera:
Lol, you don start again.

Why Una no talk this nonsense last 2 weeks when Man city played Liverpool and they played cowardice?

E reach our turn, Una don Sabi English

Liverpool vs City that was end to end. You will know two heavyweights were playing a game of football. Today was a borefest with one team refusing to play their normal game. Arteta was a coward today.

Sportsweb:
The bus no be here. They got outplayed and dominated, werey de squeeze Arteta name with Pep

Cowardice tactics from Arteta. You wouldn't have guessed it was two teams fighting for the league.

oliverano:
Halaand without service is Alexander Sorloth. Those comparing him to Mbape are just looking for another Ronaldo Vs Messi rivalry. They're not close....Mbape clear.

Did you watch Mbappe vs Germany? He was equally as frustrated as Haaland was today without service. Which attacker doesn't need service to thrive. Foden was terrible today, Bernardo didn't do much and even when Doku came on he was toothless too. I really don't know why anyone will be picking on Haaland when does meant to supply him had poor games themselves.

Roland17:
We can all agree Alonso is making the best decision to stay with Leverkusen.

Wrong decision in my books. Liverpool and Bayern are going to get new coaches in the summer so those options are already ruled out for the foreseeable future. Barca as well will get a new coach. Meaning his only viable option after next season is Madrid if they sack Ancelotti. I am having a sneak feeling he already has an agreement with Madrid. It only takes one average season from Leverkusen next year to damage his reputation.

andrewbaba44:
Lmao ,someone will think Messi have spent a season at the mls yet

Dude have even played more cup games than league games

Since you are very smart why not tell us Messi has 16 goals in 19 games for inter Miami ?

At least you saw where I said not wanting Messi at your club is valid since he is old

A smart pained Ronaldo fan

If he was dropping top level performance like you claimed then you wouldn't need to worry about his old age. You would want your own Barca to sign him back and include Suarez as well.

afrodoc2:
and said there were 6 England players in the World XI.

I don't think this is really far fetched. If I am doing a world 11 today Kane, Rice, and Bellingham are definitely getting in. Saka/Foden is definitely getting a spot in the left wing. An argument can be made for Walker or Trent in that full back role which is 5 already.

popizaino:
There is no motive for him to perform in MLS. Stop acting as if Messi won't be better off bumbs like Madueke and co in our team.

Why stop at Messi. let's bring Suarez, Alba and busquet as well to complete the team. They will definitely be better than Enzo, Caicedo and Mudryk.

andrewbaba44:
Not wanting Messi at your club is very valid because he is now old and close to retirement ,but asking how many top level performance has he dropped in the mls is pure trash

You get eye to see say season just start and 5 goals in 5 games so far ,but here you are asking for a top level performance

Messi has 5goals in 10mls games. Nothing about those figures screams top level performance especially in such a weak league. Ibrahimovic went there at 40 and dropped 22 and 30goals in back to back season. You should ask Barca to buy back Suarez and Alba since they are dropping top level performance in MLS.

popizaino:
Why don't we approach Messi if he will come cus i cannot imagine in the life of me how a player who is better than everyone else decides to be plying his route in an inferior weaker MLS league while we still parade bums like Broja playing top flight football in Europe elite Club.

Forget age Messi can still give you top level performance for 5years.

How many top-level performance has he dropped in the weaker MLS?

andrewbaba44:
Have more epl goal boots by moving like rashford

Rashford with zero golden boot?

andrewbaba44:
Guess the striker ,a better striker than Thierry Henry according to some people

Despite all these he still has more Epl golden boots then Aguero and Suarez.

fredoooooo:
Brazil National team is not like the Brazil we all grow up to know..
When you see a player like Rodrygo wearing the Brazilian number 10 jersey , that define perfectly what their national team is today .

Calm down. Brazil was literally playing a mixture of most of their 2nd and 3rd team plus giving new players their first caps.

andrewbaba44:
Vinicius have never impress for Brazil

Friendly man Dey flop ,competitive game man Dey flop ,too bad for a player of his standard

3 goals in 5 years is very poor

How many goals does your Foden have for England who by the way just dropped another poor performance for the 3 lions.

iamoyindamola:
Even Messi wasn't overplayed at such young age
I was telling Barca fans here gavi will soon have a severe injury if care was taken
Like a month after it happened, the boy will never be the same again when he comes back

Gavi injury was ACL which has nothing to do with being overplayed. Your own Saka played 86games in 2 seasons from 18 to 20years. Mbappe has been averaging 44games per season since his break out campaign for Monaco at 17yrs till now. De ligt had 117 appearance for Ajax at 20. A world class talent at any age will always get game time. An injury prone player will always get injured.

andrewbaba44:
I am someone ,I have scored 50 goals for my current club ,the 1st goal was a pk and the 50th goal was a pk ,after all those penalties I am yet to win a major trophy for my club ,who am I ? 😁

Has Messi won any major trophy for inter Miami?

andrewbaba44:
Are you sure ?

Well if it’s 5 spot chelsea won’t still see any spot

The rest leagues are already eliminated. It's remaining England, Germany and Italy. England will definitely leapfrog Germany with 5 teams remaining.

England is definitely getting an additional spot for next season Champions league. We still have 5 teams remaining in European competition.
