global recognition? 1 reason people argue that messi is greater than ronaldo is because of his ability to dominate the opposition not just goals, zidance didnt score many but when he was on the field the entire team benefited

also also, if messi scores, you know that it will most likely be a beautiful goal, the added ability to take people's breath away is the real gravy, stats are essential but they dont indicate greatness, for all ronaldo's efforts, he is a child compared to true greats like alfredo di stefano

rest in jesus name with the premature hype

Make those United boys like ni.trogen no catch you sha

Why exactly does Odoi stop, look at the big space in front of you foool

Wetin be this nau

Professor Gengen-depression …… the man just looks like the older Ralf

BlueMann:
New prematch shirt. Lukaku should feel right at home with this one

He looks trimmed

Does this mean if I stake a certain amount I get 75.28 percent in a 30 days? Or there’s a hidden detail I’m missing out

BlueMann:
18-year old Silas Nwankwo...

Had to check

Ibime:
His sin is the amount of money he earns.

A way to get the yoke of his salary off their neck.

He deceived them with those performances against city and Chelsea during that FA cup win and signed da ting . Feel he might perform for Barca and try to prove critics wrong

Roland17:
Baba, no one hates our owner and board more than me but this is not on them! Heck, the entire board are in Compton praying for Korenke’s to win the SB….This is 100% on Arteta! The intern has horrendous man management skills. Does this mean support Auba’s behaviors? Absolutely not, but this has become predictable under Arteta.

Only one coach has had problems with Auba/ Ozil/ Saliba/ Guendouzi/ Torreira/ Niles/ Pepe while shielding favorites like Willian/ Xhaka/ Luiz. His stans argue, indiscipline will not be tolerated and I ask them to put their SCAM in the mirror and tell me what they see. They should tell me where Arsenal ranks in red card/ yellow cards since the intern joined! He runs the team like it’s a military camp. Everything is a world of 2 extremes.

The chickens will come home to roost pretty soon and I will be waiting for them by the corner with rocks to stone them. He met me at Arsenal and I will be here when he leaves. I know his stans will come for me as usual and limit my position to “you already have a bias against Arteta” and I will be waiting..I know they will continue to absolve him and if they have any courage to blame him, they will ensure they include an attaché to share the burden.

That attitude might just deter big players, there’s a level kids can take you to. Although it’s difficult to place the status of the club these day’s

What did Auba do that was actually unforgivable, Xhaka has had issues with the club but still came back….be like arsenal board na the most cold hearted club….Imagine this Lukaku drama with Arsenal

Kantebets:
CHO has played with Hazard,played under 3 different coaches yet such poor return
How do you start to teach such a person
Look the players Pep is dealing with at city -they were at least good before Pep signed them

Do seem to underestimate play time rhythm in your analysis, Sterling was playing game in game out and was hitting his strides, our attackers are poor but the rate the get chopped and shuffled it’ll be difficult for any to have impressive stats.

donstan18:
ManU has lost Martial and Greenwood since a particular player joined them.

Remaining Rashford and Sancho.

That attack must finish kpata kpata by the time that player is done with ManU attack.

You well so

This afcon sef, you add four minutes blow 3:30 at a high tension game

Amoto94:
Nigerians and hypocrisy sometime last we were on social media campaigning against bullying and yesterday after Super Eagles lost out to Tunisia some fools turned against the team via cyberbullying especially Iwobi, Maduka and Shadow, now it is reported that Iwobi and Maduka have deactivated their accounts.
On this thread people have been mocked for their poor understanding of English and some other times for mundane reasons.

Go check out the referees Instagram handle

That isn’t a red card at all

Mount is an integral part of this team, he does a lot

Which Israelite be this one again

Can we get decent money for Kepa now? He seems to be reborn

Ode

Hope Odoi gets his credit for that goal too, Ziyech with the swagger

Nothing defensive about Jorginho, look how easily Bergwin shrugged him off

Lukaku no be thumbs up I go chop o

I miss Rudiger at Lcb

Ziyech getting lots of game time of recent

Abeg we offend Brighton, see energy

Skimpledawg:
Nah, this is hilarious.

Ibime taking all man as they come.

Real Portharcourt boy

Be like e dey one vacation, the guy has time

lordfalcao:
another rubbish and silly talks..

Westham with 11 goals difference and Chelsea with 28 goal difference.

Antonio with 20 percent of thier goal contribution.. with 8 goals. Others with less than 5 goals.

So Westham is playing attacking football and Chelsea is playing low block..

You can say very rubbish things to drive a point

West ham play quite attackingly, you should watch them more…..one of the most entertaining sides to watch as they don’t sit back.

Ibime:
TT has performed brilliantly and is still outperforming this squads natural level. I see no problem except the unrealistically high expectations he set with his UCL win.

TT was a steady the ship manager who managed to use defensive nous to win a trophy. You can't use steady the ship tactics to win consistently, in the long run, the quality of the squad will catch up to you. That's why I laughed when neophytes started acting like we have a squad to win the league because a rescue manager who has no mandate managed to win a tournament. Such is no different from what we have seen over the last decade with RDM, Benitez delivering cup tournaments with a disjointed squad then we continue our struggles the next season. The mandate of AVB to get the best out of Torres and play attacking football with Mata and co is not the same mandate as RDM who can park bus, drop Torres and deliver a tournament. Same way RDM next season mandate to use MaZaCar and Torres fell apart, Benitez could ditch that mandate and deliver Europa. Same way Lampard mandate to get the best of Werner, Havertz, Ziyech will never allow him to go defensive like TT did.

We can even go back to Jose mandate to fit in Shevchenko which made us play a disjointed diamond formation and ditch Robben and Duff system and lost us the league. Avram Grant a rescue manager was allowed to drop Sheva and return to our normal formation, losing only one league game in 8 months and reaching UCL final. What TT is witnessing this season is simply the challenge of moving from being a rescue manager to a manager with a mandate and finding out he doesn't have robust enough players to deliver on the expectations set by last season. That's been the story of Chelsea for the last decade, that's why I laughed when people start acting like these players are the bees knees, same players whose natural level has never been more than that of a top 4 team which we have seen repeatedly under several managers. Where we are now in the league is the best we've seen since 2017, and people feel we're underperforming. I say TT is over performing with wack and non-robust players. I hope he doesn't lose hope and is backed with quality signings along his own vision to keep him competitive always, let's stop deceiving ourselves that cup results we achieved with cøck-nyash tactical triumphs last season are sustainable.

Great piece, you summed it all up

Funny how you guys were expecting a win at the Etihad with this poor form though, we were overpowered and always looked like city had an extra man in Bernardo Silva, we are done playing both city and Liverpool, let’s go on a good run from here, I hate to say this but till Pep leaves England this might be the epl for everyone else, false hopes early season and Pep takes it from December. So if you see any other cup grab it with both hands .
No wonder Kane wanted to go to city so bad, it’s almost like a guaranteed league title now, look at his mate Grealish

fredoooooo:
Bernando Silva is the best player in the Premier league, anybody can say whatever they want .. that guy is a Baller ... Offensive, defensive, assists,goals, play making.

I agree to this, didn’t even know he was this strong, thinking he was almost sold in the summer

Roland17:
Odoi no go kee me with laff. Pesin wen suppose dey AFCON with Ghana

Hudson Ode for a reason

Can they stop passing to Alonso
