and that was why okocha was never taken serious, that iwobi is following his footsteps too angry
Making a difference in the final 3rd is what differentiates elite attackers these days where most teams play 433 or a variation of it, All 3 attackers have to be scoring options. Being smart on the ball is more important than having silky dribbling skills, a player like David Silva will make a difference with a quick turn and pass, Seemingly less talented players like Sterling Salah have learnt to reduce their ball keeping and improve positioning, shooting and decision making while Hazard is still trying to dribble a 4th defender.

The ref has no business going back to the coach saying 'he doesn't want to come off.'
coach made the call, your job is to execute the substitution. if the player doesn't want to come off, that's a yellow for time-wasting. if he still doesn't, second yellow. if the ref had done his job Kepa would've gone to the bench complaining and with a yellow, instead of getting his way.

attack and defence are the problem.
Only hazard was playing yesterday.

the attackers dnt shoot or break on time. they just pass around uselessly till it gets to hazard to make creative final pass or a 1-2
that never goes through and when It does go through, the useless striker or attackers dnt know what to do with It, then opponents make a quick counter attack and baam, the useless defenders dnt know what to do.

And the stubborn exhaust pipe man doesnt know what to do to fix it.
very clueless idiot.
The only thing Sarri can be blamed for is his stubborn team selection but definetly not his tactics. Your players are just not made for attacking style football. They lack the technical abilties.They all look so slow, don't move without the ball and seem unable to press. Even Serie C players were able to do it better under Sarri.

Iniesta was good, but Lampard was better. Messi and other attackers at Barca, made us forget the fact that Iniesta lacked what Lampard had.

Ronaldinho was a believer.
lol Even if you amputate iniesta he will still be miles ahead of lampard.

Kante is a defensive midfielder. Numbers do no justice for them.

What about Iniesta, a central attacking midfielder? How can a player go through a season without a goal?

I can name goalkeepers who scored the season while Iniesta was dancing from flag to touchline. An attacking midfielder?
Mr man this was your initial post. claiming iniesta went a season without scoring a goal. Stop jumping and show us.

Ibime had thrashed that Lukaku/Drogba goals/game nonsense, you shouldn't be dwelling on it again, unless you are Dayo.

I also told Dayo that Drogba scored just 5 goals in a season, despite playing games, due to injuries. These were things that made Drogba's goals per game close to Lukaku's. He lost over 2 seasons to recurring ligament damage. When he got over the injury, we saw him poaching goals again. These are the things stats merchants like you won't consider, while making conclusions.

Those calling Belotti, relapsti, should know better now, but they won't stop repeating stupid lines.

''
However, the striker, who will not need surgery o his medial knee ligament, is keep in a positive outlook as he seeks to comeback from another spell on the sidelines.

Drogba said: "I am very, very disappointed by the setback.

"I thought that I was about 10 days away from regaining full fitness (following a summer knee problem), and now this happens.
.
Man am not debating lukaku and drogba. We all know who the better player is and its not up for discussion..... yet . Am just trying to let ibime see the flaw in his logic that he is using to judge lampard and iniesta.

What's the context of an attacking midfielder that has half the assists of Lampard and 1/6th the goals. A Barca AMF that has lower goal return than John Terry and Sergio Ramos.
Context like 24% of lampard epl goals where penalty. Am sure iniesta would have also loved to boost his stats with pen like lampard did lol. Or the fact that the lampard we saw at Chelsea carried by ballack,essien and makelele was not the same without them when playing for England
Where he was badly exposed. Fact is Lampard was a hit and hope goal merchant this explains his horrible record at the world cup of not scoring despite having more shoots than anybody else and not having penalty to boost his stats.

Fact
Modric >>> Lampard.

One irritating thing about you aparisports pundits is, they would destroy your points with facts, yet you guys wouldn't stop repeating the same thrashed points.

Drogba had knee injury problems that took a toll on his performances for more than two seasons. Striker that was doing 20+ before, suddenly started doing 5 goals a season. This is not even considering the games he played when he turned grandpa and had lost his bite.

Everything shouldn't be about arguing, arguing, arguing, like an illiterate. This is the malaise we are facing on this thread, spearheaded by Apari himself.
How can you destroy a fact I don't follow. Does lukaku not have more goals than drogba in less games in the epl? Thats the only fact we are interested in. You didn't add context when it came to iniesta and lampard but you want to add context to drogba and lukaku yeye

Judging by your statement. He went through a poor form because of injuries too in that season.

Guess what? he bounced back by scoring 17 goals and helping Chelsea to a premier league title.


Iniesta did all his bouncing on the touchline and nothing came out. Did he even score up to 4 goals the entire season?

Do you not see the Carry-along I'm seeing?

We can pardon 365 days without goal if he claims goalscoromg is not his thing, but we can't pardon 365 days without assist.

No wonder Joaquin with just 74 assists is topping him in LaLiga assist table after 16 years in LaLiga
Help your follower out . Which season did iniesta go without scoring or assisting in all competition? Can we also pardon lampard going to 3 world cup accumulating the most number of shoots without scoring a single goal? what level of productivity is that. lukaku has more epl goals than drogba in fewer games despite playing in useless teams.....Next!

That's 2016,2017, 2018 of not breaking Lampard's goal record on loan grin

MAYDAY!! I repeat: Iniesta is a FRAUD
Stop jumping . Tell us the season iniesta didn't score any goal in all competition apart from 2014/2015 when he was injured? Eagerly waiting for your reply Bwhahahaha...Baba ignored hazard 355days without scoring a league goal lol.

You just disgraced yourself . So how does hardwork does not win point relate to my post in any way egbon and apart from the 2014/2015 season where iniesta was injured a lot and started only 14league matches tell us another season he didn't score a single goal in all competition. Your mcm lampard went to 3 world cup had the most shoot record and didn't score a single goal. Elite level of productivity lol.

Are you that pained? Does hard work win points?

Lampard is England 9th top scorer only 1 goals shy of Nat who's 6th placed. The others in the top 10 are forwards.

While others where busy winning points, iniesta was running from flag to flag on the touchline

Is he not a fraud?
What kind of stupid question is this '' Does hardwork win points " You are indirectly saying kante is useless lol. scoring the winning goal in a world cup final is running from flag to flag ok. Your productive lampard couldn't score even a single goal in the world cup.

Iniesta is no different in game from Kovacic. If he come to this current Chelsea team, some people will not mind if RLC and Barkley bench him at times, just like Kovacic.
Same way Modric is better than lampard. Bullying the epl is one thing but why did your mcm flop at every world cup with England.

Modric was not the best player going into any final.

He was the best player in the group stage, peaking against Argentina.

Perisic saw them through the knockouts while Modric was missing penalties against Denmark and co which his teammates had to save him from in penalty kicks.

They scraped past common Denmark and Russia on penalties, with England the only half-decent team they faced which Perisic saw them through before Pogba pocketed Modric in the final.

It was the big stage, but it was not big opposition until France disgraced them in the final. The stars aligned for Modric to have that good draw and penalty luck in WC combined with a year when Ronaldo saw him through UCL and then fell foul of a rãpe case which ruled him out of contention.

Ronaldo had taken carryalong blessings to Turin, Modric can't carry himself no more.

Still, Modric > Iniesta!

Carryalong beat Carryalong, God no go vex.
so when ronaldo was not carrying him it was the star's aligning lol. Very pitful excuse. ronaldo saw him through ucl so how many goals did ronaldo score from the semi final to the final? since You want to smart?. so we can say ronaldo only carried them to the quarter final and stopped as per your logic lol. Lampard the carrier couldn't carry England to any final lol.


Modric > lampard.
