Sometimes ago Tonto Dike said she saw an headline on nairaland. I av forgotten d headline, I read it in d punch where Reekado Banks said the year Sound Sultan died he read the first on nairaland.

I thought you're referring to this sport's thread.

do4luv14:
But I don't understand,

Who Did Karo Etebo offended, He had been constantly overlooked time and again

How do you think he deserves to be called up? We human beings eh, our desire is insatiable.

I think Zinny usually plays better whenever he is expected to be roasted. He should just concentrate on defending tomorrow.

Flourish Sabastine, iffy Onumonu, Anam IMO, Macleans Chinonyerem, Mercy IDOKO, Esther Ajakaye, Fransisca Ordega, Evelyn Ijeh upfront etc should make up the 3rd Team…

Even this 3rd team self na only 6 players be Home Bases for inside..


Note, the likes of Chikwelu, Ngozi Okobi name are not there. Also there are many Nigerian Women Footballers based in Israel, Turkey and other European Countries that I didn’t include their names.. Lawal, Blessing Nko and co

This is quite comprehensive. I totally forgot some of the names you mentioned in the 3rd squad.
DaveP, I think I will go with this.

daveP:
3rd nko

With their Onyene and Efih, Sebastine, etc

Omilana, Alani, Comfort, Oshobukola, Oyinlola, Alani, Onyenezidane, Bashirat Amoo, Peace Efih, Flourish, Anam Imo, MacLean.

daveP:
That's my point altogether. The one MA needs dey. And the team is set up to play for each other but the 9 will sharpen that goal getting tip upfront. Making the team more dangerous than it currently it. That's the point of all this. I don't have doubt about this one bit.


Imagine a 24+17+15+20 GA for our forwards ONLY!
Well.... i no fit explain am pass again.

Good. Do you think it is feasible? Can you suggest an ideal CF?

Jodera:
Do you think Arsenal will buy a player that hasn't kicked competitive ball for months to help us in title run in?

Hmmmm

Valid question. They said he has been training privately for weeks now.

iamoyindamola:
I read he's in training

Yea...I even saw the video. But according to Arteta, he underwent one Kain procedure which will keep him out till next year.

daveP:
My angle is let us get what will make that attack an 88+ one. That's all I'm saying. How that player will ruin our pattern is beyond me . I just can't seem to get why that's the fear of such inclusion.

At the bolded, the Auba example will give you an insight.

It is not the pattern that will be solely affected, it will affect the team's mentality too.

But then there is nothing bad in having a 30-goal CF and still spreading the goals across the team. The problem is such strikers are quite rare. All we have now are target men.
Although, Kane is good at this... And maybe Boniface.

Philosopher1979:
There is no imbalance anywhere. With 3 forwards the opposing team will be occupied and the three midfielders will work hard.
We are very dangerous that way. Imagone simon boniface osimhen troubling any defence. The rest of the team just has to wirk hard. Iwobi pure am nwakali or alhassan yusuf as cm while Raphael Onyedika plays dm. All the midfielders should just load passed to the front three.
Defending wingers from opposing teams is oveerated.
IT WILL WORK MARK MY WORDS

All your opposition needs to do to hurt you is to bypass your press with long ball or excellent buildups. The only way it will work is if you're suggesting 433. You think the work of the wingers is to attack alone? They need to help their FBs. In your case, how are you going to do that with your 1 winger, 2 forwards logic?

elyte89:
And what’s wrong if we av our private numbers …u Dey hide something? cos I knw this is a big family

That's not the issue. Things sometimes get tense here especially when there is an argument. For security reason, it is better to be anonymous. Make some people no go dey track their opposers down.

Jodera:
I would even be surprised if we get any striker at all.

I hope we do but I just feel it's the media that's forcing all these striker needs Tbh. Jan no far again sha, let's see

Heard A FB and a midfielder are the top priorities.
Logically, it seems Toney's deal was already done together with Raya's going by what #arsenalfanatic is saying.

We all agreed that Arteta doesn't rotate but the question we should ask ourselves is whether the fringe players are always available.

Vieira, ESR, Nelson, Tomiyasu and Partey who are supposed to provide depth have been rotating sick beds frequently this season. That's frustrating TBH

iamoyindamola has mentioned Partey about thrice now and I've been wondering if we have two Parteys.

The return date for Partey is January according to reports.

Odunayaw:
Telegram has features for hiding your numbers. You can be as anonymous there as Nairaland

However I fear the back and forths. The way a chatroom is structured can make reading past messages cumbersome

Well, it is just for backup and not our main discussion forum.

Philosopher1979:
When we play 4 4 2 it will be with 3 central midfielders and 1 winger. Something like 4 3 1 2. Playing with 2 midfielders does not work in the modern game

Playing with one winger doesn't work too. It makes the team unbalanced

do4luv14:
I tell you, even that green app is not free too,

I don't know much about cuberEagles and their layout, But here is the best with its style and layout,

We can only wish for the problem to be resolved asap

You're right. But I believe Telegram allows it's users to hide their individual numbers. Right?

maidaboi:
me the reason WhatsApp I was not the same these pass few days

I don't know say nairaland( this thread) don enter me like this

WhatsApp may not contain us all.
Moreso, people's private numbers will be visible.

do4luv14:
It's not Advisable we go there, with the endles back and forth which usually result to insults, threat and even Dares,

Telegram can create chaos as our private number will be visible, imagine sending threatening msg, heck even text too, due to availability of Phone number

hmmm

Well... I never thought of that. Telegram is still the best alternative for now. If anybody has another suggestion, they can table it.

daveP:
Yes we got 88 last season. But who else saw the GD that City used to win that league? And some of us are content with that, thinking that the players that gave that 88 would replicate it absolutely. We've even forgotten auba sef. 22goals back to back. That's a consistency we crave but is absent in our Attacking Line right now. A consistency that Ollie was nowhere to be seen but is now bossing on the list of G&A.


Bottomline: Let's aim higher abeg. If you're comfy with 88 then you're thinking very small. Verrrryy small. Considering the teams we are up against. I always say if it went down to deciding title by GD, we won't cos we haven't been set up to give that. But some are satisfied that everyone is netting. Naaaaaah. Factory Reset pls!!

You're just dragging us back with this talk bro. The season Auba netted 22 goals, which other player came near to that figure?

We were so reliant on Auba that if he doesn't score, we are not scoring any goal.

That said, the problem is not that we don't have a 30-goal striker. The problem is that we are missing chances.

BlueRayDick:
While we were away Loserpool knack West Ham 5-1 . Make our boys behave on Saturday o

I'm more worried about us missing chances than what Liverpool will do to us. If the boys turn up, we should get all the points.

germaphobe:
For that second goal, both Trossard and Havertz were brilliant with the way they drag Brighton players off to create space. Beautiful goal.

Odumodu be making me smile each match, big ups to Teta for helping Havertz get his confidence back.

When Nketiah had the ball, I was shouting 'pass to Saka' whereas man had something better in mind.

iamoyindamola:
Arteta and yellow
He’s not leading by example at all

He tries as much as possible to take his emotions but he can't help it sometimes. His theatrics earned Brighton a yellow sha

Rice is ill but still managed to start. Normally, We should be given him a breather for full recovery had it been Partey is available.

Well, I just had Saudi people are considering a 35m swoop for Partey. They should make it 50 abeg

iamoyindamola:
Bros it's not see finish
He's not just good enough and his age factor considering he's an African
Toney is epl proven unlike osihmeh we don't know abeg

Age factor? Like he is lying about his age?
