We dey actually flog city for house!

obainojazz:
But VVD captains Liverpool....

Well..the two situations are not comparable.. are they?
One is 2 yrs old at the club and has delivered outstanding performances and even propel the club to success
The other is less than 5 months at the club and we're still struggling to understand how and why we paid 80m for him..

ChristineC:
that's a scouting problem. another Dan James can unearth to improve the team. look at Pepe and James now; non is really a waste of money per say but comparing respective contributions so far, one is looking like it.
Madison is trying but not £80-100m trying. all that hype and big tag bring it's weight and very few of them have the persona to carry it.
ordinary captain's armband looked so heavy on Harry Maguire, I'm I the only one who observed he was much more composed in the last game without that added responsibility? [I'm not sure why the hell he's even getting the armband, he's the newest player within the group].

Maguire being captain is an indictment of the club as a whole..
A player that's less than 5 months at the club?

codedguy1:
If the rumours are true about our looking at this kulusevski guy. What exact has the scouting team seen in the guy for his name to even come up from no where. Potential?

I know say na our own small assessment from the view of a fan we dey analyse and debate but what guys have said here is not encouraging.

Can't we raid 1 or 2 players from that ajax team to compliment our midfield especially.

Madison won't be a bad idea too.

I dey feel you
Our scouting system has been shit for years
Make we get that Donny Van De Beek lasan..I'm surprised no European top club has snapped him up yet

post=84681459:
You can say that again.
Nobody gave us a chance this season at all.
Especially When the coach left and the best player in Chelsea for the past 6 years left for Real Madrid also, couple with the fact that we won't be able to sign players for 2 looong years,bringing in a coach with no Premier
league experience,
everybody thought that was the end of Chelsea.
But bringing back these young players from loans and from our academy has panned out well and good for us so far.

The target this season from @ point of view before this season started was to try and finish in the top 6 or 7, try to get to atleast the 2nd round or quater final of the champions league, try to see how far we could go in Carling and FA Cup as we rebuild.
But these young players are performing above that already.
Right now, we are above Arsenal, Tottenham, Man utd with all their experienced players and coach.

Lol
Man utd have the average youngest squad in the league and certainly do not have an experienced coach

GloryIsaac:
The previous strategy of world-beaters hasn't worked either...

You read the ESPN article, right?

Regardless, the club really needs a DoF.

They don't have to be world-beaters.. There's an abundance of non-english talent across Europe
And yes..we've been saying it for far too long it's become cliche..WE NEED A DoF

GloryIsaac:
He doesn't fit the young, british talent recruitment plan, and if there was an exception, it'll most likely be Bruno Fernandes or a striker.

Leemao
That "young British talent" strategy will only lead us back to square one

GloryIsaac:
Can?

He's German.

So....

Seems we are being linked with Emre Can for January
Thoughts?

nitrogen:
You minding the OGS-in guys? Bassaka keeps messing up everything upfront, and some faithful are scared to say it as it is. Can't cross, no sense of urgency, etc. He only knows how to dive and block balls, that's really bad!

I don't understand the lack of criticism for him either..even offline people have refused to say the blatant truth

Wan Bissaka really frustrated me today..dude's so poor attacking-wise..he's got pace when diving into tackles and blocking attackers but seems to lose it when he's at the other end of the pitch

blowjohn:
He has a point.
Messi lost 3 trophies last season.
That's a lot!

Messi lost or Barca lost?
Or Argentina lost?
How people seem to think trophies are won by individuals still baffles me

gurunlocker:
If not for Media hype, how can this giant even be the talk of town for the award?

VVD and Messi? Like WTF!!!


I will even prefer mane winning than him.

You know your stuff..VVD where Messi dey? It's a phucking disgrace

Tarabye:
On a normal day, is lukaku even the striker meant for United?
Lukaku is nothing but a player fit for average team, the name Man United is bigger than him
He played well in West Brom, Everton, and now playing good at Inter Milan but failed in top teams like United and Chelsea

So Chelsea is a big club and Inter is not?

Na Manchester United dey play abi colcester united?
30 mins no attempt?
Issokay

ChristoBam:
See trash. Levy has not forgiven Poch for not winning the UCL final? Lmaooooooo.. All of you are comedians.

I wish I could unlike that comment..absolute balderdash!

weedtaker:
why are dis people mentioning Ndombele as if he's a bad player, one even called him Bakayoko 2.0 lol,
that guy is good na.

Exactly
I've been surprised

SalamRushdie:
I bought an OPPO F11 Pro after I saw the camera performance and since then I can't remember when I used my Samsung S10 to take a picture ... Their phones are great and it seems I have become a fan

Oppo F11 whatever takes better pics than S10?

Issokay..continue

Dollarseeker:
true but for other things na Ronaldo

Una Don start again..other things like what exactly?

ajericho:
you didn't think like this when you were shaming ronaldo na,

abi na only messi matter you dey get sense?

Show me where I shamed cr7
If you can't find it..give a verdict by yourself on your level of intelligence

NORSYK:
Man you made mockery and jest of Messi by posting such a demeaning picture.

By the way if an average team of Chile could be win it back to back, then what stops the so called Messi from winning it 4 in a roll.

Can you see where you goofed?
You said Chile an average "team" won it b2b
Yet messi, an individual, is supposed to win a whole tournament by himself

Smh

ajericho:
the same way messi put 10 past Slavia lol

The same way cr7 put 12 past lokomotiv Moscow

Una just like dey bring rubbish analysis

SincereBigot:
euro cup

I see Ronaldo played all the 7 or so matches alone...beating the opponents with his incredible strength and skill...yeye dey smell

You should be saying "Ronaldo has won tht Euro cup with Portugal"

The fact that messi has no major intl trophy is not his fault by any stretch of imagination

SincereBigot:
when will ur messi win even a plastic cup for his country?

What has Ronaldo won "for" his country?

Samsung with their fragile screen and plastic casings/housings ( except from recent phones), iPhone shit on any Samsung you can ever think of.
Do you know that Samsung phones depreciate faster than any other flagship phones out there and Samsung phones are the easiest to clone to the last detail by Asians.

Apple's iPhones displays are now made by Samsung from iPhone x...Samsung is the best in the display business no argument here

Depreciation? Well it says a lot that the 2 phone brands that lose value the slowest are Google's pixel and Apple iPhones...nuff said

Cloning? You never jam better iPhone clone before ba?

laptopsale:
designs, durability, security ,UI, software and better OS.
I have used both and currently using S8+ , so I know what I am talking about.

UI, software and OS can be put under "OS" and remains subjective..ios is not better than android and vice versa..choose what's best for you

Design? Apple that used the same design for 4 years is better than who? Samsung? Are the current notched iPhones better designed than Samsung's flagships if you want to be true to yourself? Anyway beauty is in the eyes of the beholder

Durability? Probably true for the older metal Build iPhones but the newer models also have glass front and backs and are as costly to repair as any other flagships out there

The only point I can agree with you on is security as no doubt, iPhones are really secure thanks to Apple's ecosystem

Cheers...

hustla:
Over priced products and 5 year old features

Lol...Apple fanboys

Do you know that

You've not answered my question...in what terms?
Design?

iambabaG:
That’s what y’all don’t understand.. Apple products are simple, durable and very reliable!
How will the cost of the screen be more that half the cost of the phone?
We clearly look for different things in a phone. I need one that does the needful; Samsung hasn’t stood out in any actual department till date. But they clearly appeal to a particular market. Same as Apple.

In what aspect has Apple stood out?

VIPERVENOM:
because of one miss? Make we hear word. C. Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Aguero & just recently Rashford missed from similar positions all empty post & everybody has moved on. Nigerians should move on from dat miss too. That was 9 years ago

Lol..it was the significance of the miss, which tbh cannot be compared to the misses of the others you've mentioned

But Nigerians really should move on..and he's one of our best ever, whether we accept it or not

ChristineC:
they obviously didn't want his baggages for good reason.

What reason can be better than him coming in and banging in the goals?

ChristineC:
Dan James has looked like a real bargain so far, the board may not want to invest that heavily on another winger in Jordan Sancho.
I think it will make sense to strengthen the central areas first (if there's a budget) - chance creation and conversion - chances are coming from the right wing, we could use a fox in the box right now. Javier Hernandez will be on 13+ goals if he led our lines from Match day 1.

Yet we let icardi go to PSG on loan when we could've gotten him for free
