Nihilist:
I did not say city does not use a DM. I specifically mentioned that city did not have a DM or a Striker on the pitch.

You are arguing that fernandinho is a DM because he was playing at DM but KDB is not a striker despite playing 9 in the very same match

Can you just stop bugging me please?

Where we disagreed is that City did not have a DM, Fernandinho plays as a DM, simple.

Nobody is bugging you.

Nihilist:
Why do you keep doing this?

1st leg, KDB played 9 but you said he's not a striker.

Today he's playing left wing. He must be a winger

What prompted the argument the other time is that you claimed City does not use a DM that night and when I pointed out Fernandinho you claim he's a CM and not a DM while I insisted that he might play as a CM sometimes he mostly play as DM for City.

that's different from your comparison with KDB.

Nihilist, where Fernandinho dey play for this match?

elampiro:

You know know ball. Is it not the same players Rooney created for against Bournemouth, Southampton, etc?

The quality of the chances have to be great, then the person should be able to score one or two of them.

YOU REALLY NO KNOW BALL.

Baba, I hail ooo

Na Ogun go kill Mou for those 3 wasted substitution.

Why remove Mata when Herrera just got sent off and we still need a goal. Once again, Ogun kill Mou.

Rubbish.

What's all this buhahaha about, we are playing well and controlling the game, goals will soon start trickling in, guys calm down. Haba.

Oasis007:

Ogbeni no dey shine your teeth for me jor!!!

eph12:
Mhki is fit but Mourinho wouldn't play him. Just imagine if he had gone to Assnal or city or even liverfool he would have been getting playing time to fit into the team and understand the league. Probably by now if fit would have made one or two impact. But Mourinho will prefer to play Fellaini Pogba and the likes. Power always win when Mou is involved.

Guy calm down, Mihki will be introduced into the team gradually, we all don't want a repeat of what happened in the city match as it could dent his confidence. Give the lad some time to find his rhythm and get back into the side.

Must you guys always look for reason to bash Mou, if you can't support the team, you can go support either of City, liverpool or Arsenal. we have enough haters already.

This place don turn desert?

Nice game from the lad, we won and that's all that matters.
Burnley next.
#GGMU

who be the DJ for tonight

We the haters have arrived.

SAF must be laughing really hard at those lambasting him for letting Pogba leave the club.

Dude is busy justifying SAF decision.

Herrera ko, Heerenveen ni, Man utd going the way of liverpool. United lost it the day they hurriedly sacked moyes.

My Nigga

This loss is squarely on Mourinho head. I said it after the Liverpool game that Pogba is very useless playing behind the striker, I don't think he did anything meaningful when he went to partner Herrera at the pivot, dude was too lazy to even mark his opponent, always jogging around. The earlier Mourinho comes to term that Pogba needs to sit on the bench the better for him.

You want to play attacking football and you left Martial, Mata, Mihki, Carrick out of your first 11, hell you drop your best LB at home and bring fuc.king Rojo and you expect any miracles. Mourinho better start sorting things out or he gets booted out.

Shout out to Smalling, he made sure the game was over before it even started. January cannot come soon enough.

#GGMU

Smalling is so useless proudly supported by Pogba.

Pogba is so useless I'm wondering how any one will call him a footballer, dude is just too lazy.

Damn.

Let the party start.

Bring in Martial, Mata and Carrick,
OUT
Pogba, Fellani, Lingard

Pogba
What a useless player

raumdeuter:
1st goal Fernandinho slipped
Red card Bravo handled the balloutside the box
2nd goal Debruyne passed to a Barca player who was almost infront of their box
3rd goal Gundogan passed to Suarez who was around City Box

2nd goal was purely from messi brilliance, you think it's easy to curl a ball in front of like 2 defenders like that, another player would have passed to another teammate, it wasn't like KDB passed to messi in front on the goal keeper.

3rd goal, Gundogan passed to Stones who was ball watching and the ball went to Suarez.

Moreover errors are always part of the beautiful game, you force your opponent to make errors and punish them for it, the difference between Barca and City last night was that Enrique played all his player that will punish any mistake City makes but Pep put his on the bench.

That's a tactical blunder and not tactical ingenuity.

raumdeuter:
He had 5 shots on goal including point blank saves from Gundogan and Debruyne. This isnt the first time Pep has deployed a false 9 pattern he started it at Barca he played it at Bayern

Most of the goals were individual errors, No coach will coach Fernandinho not to slip in the box or for Bravo to use his hand outside the box

Even those we park the bus do have shots on targets, heck they even win matches.

You are talking as if it was all the goals that were individual effort, apart from Fernandinho slip, there's no goal that resulted from individual error.

It was Pep's philosophy of passing from the back that had been instilled into Bravo's head thats what caused that red card. A Joe Hart could have ballooned the ball to the stands but Pep wants a ball playing and he got one.

There was no tactical game plan from pep last night except tactical suicide and his team paid dearly for it.

I have been going through all the comment since the match ended and no one has actually pointed out the tactics which Pep used in this particular match.

If it's to win, why drop your most potent striker on this bench to play as false nine?

If it's to flood the midfield to deny Barca spaces in the midfield, is he trying to settle for a draw or what?

For a manager that's being called a tactical genius and yet he's not able to beat a Barca side be once coached in all his encounter with them. haba.

Yesterday loss is squarely on Pep's head as on Bravo's.

nateevs:
So parking the bus means you won't get hammered 4-0.

Yes. That's what it means.

Nihilist:
Guy help yourself and use Google. The information you seek is on there. Goodnight.

Finally, Thank you sir.

Nihilist:
You have serious comprehension problems bro.

In this same match KDB is playing up front. He must be a striker.

No you are the one that goofed and looking for an escape route.

The difference is that Fernandinho usually play as a DM for City while KDB was just used as a false nine in this particular match.

whether Pep use 4-1-4-1 or 4-2-3-1, Fernandinho either plays as the DM or as the B2B if Fernando is on the pitch, claiming otherwise means you don't watch any City matches or you just want to argue for fun.

Show/List any match/matches where Fernandinho plays as the CM.

Thank you.

In this particular match, what role did Fernandinho and Gundogan plays?

Nihilist:
If you could understand English, you would have seen where I told you that Fernandinho is as much a DM as KDB is a striker.

Whatever rocks your boat man.

Even when transfermarkt claim he does play as DM, yet baba Nihilist won't agree he's a DM but we should agree that he's a CM because transfermarkt says so.

You are good bro.

Cheers.

Nihilist:
Nihilist does not own tranfermarkt website bro so I don't understand this aggression.

You can play in a pivot and not be a DM, ask Santi Cazorla, Ander Herrera or Fabregas. You can be the deepest midfielder for your team and still not be a DM, ask Pirlo.

Fernandinho is not a DM.

Cheers.

Take your L like a man bro.

Fernandinho plays as a DM considering the kind of formation they play. even your transfermarkt claims he plays as a DM.

This particular match that we are watching, Fernandinho plays as the DM.

Once again, take your L like a boss and walk away.

Nihilist:
What goof?

I repeat you goof, you should accept it and move on. Fernandinho has been playing the DM role in City for almost all his time there, I don't know why you have to argue against that really.

Even in this same match, he was the DM while Gundogan was the b2b.

I ask again, how did Pep not use a DM?

Modified: Even your site quoted that he play as DM also.

Nihilist:
Fernandinho is as much a defensive midfielder as KDB is a striker.

Baba, Fernandinho is a DM, nothing more, nothing else. You can't change that with your own word of the mouth. I really wish I would screenshot, I for show you how they describe him.

You goof, accept and move on.

Peace.
