Does it matter, provided that they are doing there jobs excellently well in their current positions, why change the status quo?

Am saying some tweaks can be made to see how improvements can be made to surprise opponents.
Under Guardiola, Trent will be playing 2 positions now.

mikuz:
Trent playing defensive midfield is suicide mission. The only two persons who can hold that spot down for us are Fabinho and Henderson.

I hope you know RB isn't his natural position. Or that Fabinho is a natural Right Back.

abduleez1:
Well, I think it's time WB do a recast. He's not worth the trouble.

To be honest I want them to cancel that flash film, remove Keaton from Batgirl, recast Superman, Batman, Flash and do it again but better.
The flash film will be a PR and marketing nightmare.

mikuz:
I could have still fancied another natural DM in that midfield. Hendo plays optimally when he's deployed as a CM. Nothing beats playing in your natural position. Fabinho as DM and Hendo as CM is always a joy to watch, he hardly puts a foot wrong bro.

It was a mistake selling Neco Williams. I still don't know why Trent isn't playing DM yet. Cause this season would have been a perfect season to do that.
I don't know if Gomez or Matip can play there. Would be interesting lol.

Kaycee7:
Oh! TIL that.
His work on the Arrowverse isn't exactly inspiring my confidence, though. But I never mind being pleasantly surprised.

Is the arrowverse well written? He acted what was given him.
Routh has better emotional depth than Cavill though.

abduleez1:
Very true. And that's what is the most annoying. Ben who's a better and bigger actor with more pedigree, despite all the shït WB did to him got back after seeing the new team. His movie was repurposed and given to another director (Matt Reeves), an old actor set to replace him and a younger actor just debuting yet he's back.

For over 3 years Henry still dey drag money. It's bad from him especially from a character and studio that made him a familiar face in general audience.
It just shows he never really loved the character to begin with. More like a fat paycheck.

Henry Cavill said it way before now that he was into acting because of the money though.
But seriously, it's not the guy holding the movie but WB, if they really wanted it, they will have it out already. No need to bash the guy sha.
With the way WB managed the DCEU the guy wants to cash in big time knowing there's a tendency for the film to tank big time and affect him.

Kaycee7:
I'm kinda confused. Do you mean he was playing an onscreen version of Christopher Reeves or his portrayal of Supes mimicked Reeves' own?

The Superman he was portraying was that of the Reeves version. Everything was about it being a sequel to it. It's public knowledge lol.

Kaycee7:
Superman Returns wey them give am, how far?

You mean the film where he played Christopher Reeve playing Superman?

WB can just go with Brandon Routh. Dude has been begging for the role for ages.

abduleez1:
I was surprised seeing DC in Comic con. Cos it was only House of The Dragon and Don't Worry Darling that were poised to showcase.

Seems no DC Fandome this year.

There was a DC fandome this year na. Or was it last year that the flash trailer was released?

mikuz:
He's ok for me. Which mistakes? Are you not being harsh on him? Seeing that he's been deployed to play as ball retainer and not given enough freedom and opportunity to express himself with the ball.

Our pattern of play does not allow for holding on to the ball for long. We are a high pressing team, once you get the ball, you move quick by identifying a pass.
You are asking which mistakes, against Man City in 2020/21 season, he held on to the ball too much and was dispossessed. City ended up scoring from that.
He did same thing very often that season which lost us points. The guy is a good player but dude needs to actually play the tactics.
He is deployed as an 8 but tries to play as a number 10 by getting into tight corners and trying to dribble.
The problem is we play a high line and if we get dispossessed, voila a counter attack against us.

CAPdan21:
What do u guys think about Curtis...he seemed like someone always close to taking the next step to becoming a mainstay of the first team but always regressing... I'd argue he's already starting this season behind Elliot and carvalho in the midfield pecking order...Do we think he's good enough, or he'll get consistent later on cuz I don't see any path for him now...

He keeps repeating the same mistakes too often. Holds the ball too long and losses possession as a result. I prefer him on the wings.

openmine:
Guys who is that young player Bajcetic?
He is very good in the midfield

Fabinho spoke very highly of him.

Jodera:
Lol... Mik.uz na conc Mane fan than Liverpool fan. He seems to me he's all those guys who supported Madrid and juventus because of Ororo

No need to take him seriously then. Na to just ignore am.

Jodera:
Lol, I also agree with you that Liverpool aren't to blame but his agent. I even told him that.

One thing you'll agree with me is that mane
is arguably one of the top3 Liverpool best player during his time here. 100k nowadays is for average players or new signing coming from a different league or club that isn't big, so he deserves more than that.

Another thing is that Liverpool is a big club. This is the club that Firmino earns almost 200k, Chamberlain earns like 150k, thiago, Van dijk earns very very high(all as basic wages), top why can't mane who is one of the top performers earn high too? Abi na only Mane kit sales and sponsorship deals dey affect??

Also his Agent saying he earns more is just watering down the situation and his Fvck up. He didn't say what mane earns, and he Only said it when mane left Liverpool. This is something that everyone knew his wages was 100k for a very long time, why is it now that he's no longer a Liverpool player that he now saying it?

I don't believe that Mane was mistreated but one thing I do know is that 100k is too small for someone of Mane calibre at a big club like Liverpool who even pays players with lesser calibre higher.

All In all, na mane and him agent Fvck up

Again, we don't know for a fact what his wages were. Mainstream media didn't carry it and Mane's PR agent already debunked it.

abduleez1:
Yep. He's a master telepath and slightly more powerful than even Charles Xavier and Jean Grey in terms of telepathy. He's done it in the comics before.

I don't think MM is more powerful than Xavier though. The stuffs Xavier can do in the comics scares me.

abduleez1:
I need to see King Shark's rivalry with Aquaman.
Action would be dope.

I don't think there will be any rivalry. Dude has telepathy to control fish.

Jodera:
Hian, this your talk different na.

How will you compare Footballer's salary with that of doctors. Granted, in terms of any other job, Mane salary is big but compared to his fellow colleagues?

This is false equivalence you're doing. Compare Mane wages with his fellow footballers wages and see if he's underpaid or not. We ought to be discussing footballers wages not doctor's or Cleaners or sort

Why I brought the freaking comparison was to squash the idea that Mane was mistreated. And speaking of colleagues, I don't know what Mane earned but if he was earning lesser than his colleagues, Liverpool aren't to blame but his agent. And speaking of agent, his PR agent already debunked the salary thing.
People want to bring the idea of racism and mistreatment forgetting the fact that he earns far more than some British guys.
Mane may deserve the Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, De Bruyne wages but these guys who call themselves fans of Liverpool don't know who runs the club or how the club is run.
Compared to the big guns, our kit sales don't produce the money United, Real Madrid, Barca command.
Sponsorship is another thing. And the way FSG run, they want to make the club self sufficient to pay for what it earns.
So you can't have players signed on to big wages if the club can't afford it.
Besides there are other staffers in the club that are being paid.

Eaziimoney:
Nairaland is saturated with dumbos but, I must confess, this is the dumbest post I've seen this month.

Thanks... your opinion saved lives.

mikuz:
What's my business with UK doctors? Are we discussing doctors or footballers.

Mane is the only player whose salary is undisclosed and that is ok to you.

No footballers wages is disclosed. Even the figures you see are even disputed. There are clauses in wages, tax etc that determine it, so don't assume you know.

I brought UK doctors for you to understand that, those who actually save lives don't receive what footballers earn in a year.
If you think Mane was being mistreated, I can brag to you that the money Adrian or Kelleher who are not regular starters are being paid for a month, your current job can't give you that in 50 years. It's not an insult but to show you no one is being mistreated.
Check what footballers earned back in the 80s and 90s.
I just don't like arguing what I don't know and a players wages, no one knows but their agent and them. Estimated figures are what the media circulate around.
There are clauses, tax cuts or whatever and bonuses that determine the weekly wages so don't act like you have the information.
And Mane's PR agent works for Mane not Liverpool, if Mane was being mistreated, he wouldn't have denied it.
Mane's salary is 100k, he pays UK taxes and still has a lot of money to do charity in Senegal, own houses in Spain and Liverpool. Bros, you sef reason am. Abi na starve him dey starve na.

mikuz:
He was very much under appreciated. 100k for a club legend? That's abysmal.

If he was under appreciated, his PR agent wouldn't deny it would he?
Bros, if you think he was underpaid, ask yourself what medical practitioners earn in the UK. You don't know the figures, don't act like you do when his agent already said it.

EgusiShankly:
Mane was abysmal for 18months and he admitted that himself yet Klopp didn't drop him for other options.

I believe dis guy possibly started following lfc in recent years, so I will wait for his reasons

Come to think of it, Mane started putting up the numbers the minute Salah came.

EgusiShankly:
Care to explain how Mane was treated?

I tire oh. Even the Salary nonsense, his agent debunked it. This was a Mane who had a very bad form last season that the club stayed behind.
Or did Liverpool owe him wages? No.
Some fans are just annoying sha. This why I hate people who fan players, I don't take them serious.
As it is, I don't fan any specific player in Liverpool or even have a favorite. Anyone leaves, good for him. We throw him a farewell and we move on.
What this club did for me in times I was depressed, I won't forget it.

mikuz:
If if if if if . . . We could have won the league last season if we had beaten Man City at Anfield going by your logic. You cannot tie your success in the league to a particular team. You can lose against your greatest rivals and still win the league! Winning the league is ultimate.

Sure, but Klopp finding it hard to win Everton speaks more about the fixture. No just argue this thing. Merseyside derby is not an ordinary fixture just as Man City vs Liverpool is now a big fixture.
I no go follow you talk again on this same issue if you continue arguing something that shouldn't be argued.

mikuz:
We lost the league in 2019 because of Everton. What tha?
E be like I go leave this thread for una because the kind things I dey read here every dey turn my stomach.
Man City won the league 2 seasons ago while losing home and away to Man Utd.

Man Utd were busy celebrating beating City while City were celebrating running away with the title because no sensible club places priority on winning senseless derbies wins over winning the league.

What is Everton? Why should I care about beating a team that almost got relegated last season? What bragging rights are you guys talking about? Man City is turning the EPL to a monopoly but Everton is more important

Oga, I don't have time for argument. Everton was the last draw we had in 2018/19 if we had won that game as you claim it was inconsequential, we would have won the league. Since Klopp became manager we won Everton back to back in the league just last season. And you saw how difficult that was.

mikuz:
I don't see the rivalry you guys are talking about here. Wikipedia already rubbished all that by calling it THE FRIENDLY DERBY.

Why it's called the friendly derby is because in a family of scousers you can have a red and a blue and in games both are often sat together.
It is not divided by politics, religion or anything but it doesn't stop it from being fierce. That game ended our season in 2020/21 because of Van Dijk injury and Thiago injury.
We lost the league in 2018/19 against Everton.
I didn't hate Everton before but now I really despise them like I do United. The Everton vs Lfc game was huge then when Everton and Liverpool were big clubs and competed against each other for English titles.

Carot:
Guys how true is this?
Martian Manhunter is capable of reading the minds of all inhabitants of Earth at once.

Yea, he is a telepath and he did it in the JL animated series.

BankyGee:
I swear down bro. Maybe setting it entirely outside the Arrowverse is for the best after all. I just hope HBO Max can take it up from here, then more wonders can happen with the series.
It's been confirmed Tom Cavanagh is set to direct Season 3's pilot episode. Me no wan sha get The Flash's vibes inside the episode o

He has directed the series before actually.

nani667:
°°°°°

For real? Why did she sign another contract?

BankyGee:
Just watched the Superman and Lois finale, and it's one of the best Comic Book Series' finales I've watched in a while.
I can now 100% agree with the bolded, because it was clear, even a blind person would attest to it
One of the characters I really enjoy and applaud is this General Lane guy (every cast is perfect tho), the man dey give me premium joy I swear.
SaL just feels like a sequel to 2001's Smallville.
Doesn't feel like a CW show either
Season 2 - 8/10
I really enjoyed the ride!
Can't wait, while patiently waiting for Season 3!
We move

I so love the Sam Lane character. All the characters are well written even the villains.

But most times, d woman who wants us are not the one we want.. Has happened to me twice..

Life is never really fair though. But seriously, if you have someone who wants you, best to stick by them.
