looks false. If true Maybe we consider him after afcon.

consider who? where is he going to play? Orban sef never get chance.

timay1:
No one has beef against him, hes not a popular figure, so he will get a pass.

Rubiales case was an issue of someone that they wanted to roast before, he now used palm oil to rub his body to make the roasting easier

We all know that Spanish womens team has had issue way before the world cupwith their Coach and FA president who refused to support them and was defending the coach against them.
On a normal day that issue no suppose cause anything major as it happened in a moment of celebration and there was no bad intention behind it. The girls saw an opportunity to get back at those guys and they took it to the maximum. I respect them for that

Going foward, those girls have already proven a point to the hierachy within the FA and they will take their concerns serious moving foward.

Well...you made a nice point.

All i know is that uefa go soon change this UWCL format. Doesn't make sense. Now as Arsenal don jaa, big money don go with them

Semifinals last season
Non participating this new season
What a spin

It all just proves she's Paris FC's Most valuable player. Chiamaka Nnadozie

Arsenal really messed up. With Viv and Mead back, and with the acquisition of Russo and Cordina... I was expecting them to go all the way. They really fumbled eh.

Roland17:
I respectfully disagree.

It's cool. We all can't have the same opinion.

My fellow brothers, when are we taking these guys to court? See the way they're holding our wife na

Roland17:
In what ways? Give some examples.

1. Press resistance


2. Passing




3. Decision making

On Gabu....



Earlier in the game, the Gunners star was on the receiving end of a horror challenge from Bolivia's Diego Ibanez in the fifth minute..but he continued till 80th minute.. he was spotted with an ice on his thigh..after being substituted..Physical therapy doctor, Dr. Rajpal Brar, provided a brief update on his initial assessment of the injury..which he said it a thigh issue...but unsure if its a contact issue or a muscle pull...Brar later provided another update: "Based on what multiple people have told me, sounds contact related. Overall good news."..so guys stay cool...nothing big to worry about...let's wait for Brazil vs Peru on 13th where we will get a clear picture of what is going on...

Spy360:
He is really pushing to displace Zinchenko on the inverted LB.

He played as LCB not LB. Man is just so complete. Can cover the entire backline aside GK.

Roland17:
I have always been a firm supporter of Tomiyasu and will pick him ahead of White.

White is just more intelligent. That's the difference between the two.

Just finish watching Tomi against Germany, the guy na baller. I know he is defensively solid but the way he was spraying passes with his left foot... long passes o.

I just pray he stays injury free this season.

Gabriel Magalhães game by numbers vs Bolivia:
• 84 mins played • 100% aerial duels won • 95 touches • 80 passes completed • 93% passing accuracy • 5 passes into final third • 4 recoveries • 4 duels won • 3 clearances • 1 interception • 100% tackle won • 1 big chance created



What a debut!

Lemme talk about our Corner kicks I've observed so far.

Last season and the season before that, our corner have been very effective and dangerous(we've been using inswinging crosses using Inverted crossers) but this season it's been entirely different.

I noticed that we've changed pattern this season. We're more playing it at the near post and hoping that our players slug it out with our opponents in the near post which is the dangerous zone hoping that if we win the ball it'll have a high chance of ending at the back of the net (hypothetically 90% of the time).

While I understand the logic but it's certainly not working at all. We had 25+ corners across the four matches and if I'm not mistaken, it took us until the last match(against Man u) before we could win our first ball header through a cross.

Simply put, all the crosses have failed to beat the first man(or opposition players) probably because our players are too slow or not positioned in strategic place to win the first ball headers. Also, most of the crosses have been poor as it isn't accurately delivered height-wise.
We had to change back to our default corner tactics before we could start winning headers and consequently got the second goal through Declan Rice.

While I understand we need to get different tactics with corners, I feel we shouldn't do away with what was seriously working for us so far.

Sometimes mixing the two won't be bad, but my opinion should be that this new corner tactics should be our Option B and not A

COYG!!!

You noticed the corner routines too? Wow.... I think the recent absence of Gabi is why we have not looked dangerous during CKs so far this season. Moreso, the kickers need to up their kicks too. Another aspect I want us to work on is the outside shots especially curlers. Martinelli is the main culprit here... While Saka has been effective, Martinelli has been poor.

Spy360:
Upon all our wailings Jodera, Kai was called up to German NT. What are they seeing that we are not? I hope we get to see him play actually and assess his performance outside Arsenal shirt.

Kai will always get a call up na. Just like Nacho(super eagles). That doesn't take away his woeful performance in the last two games.

If Toru doesn't start, he needs to come on for at least 30 minutes. He is one player I'm looking forward to watch in this upcoming match. Our defence is kinda light quality-wise, we don't just know. And Bassey should face his LB position.



BTW, I wonder what must be going on in the mind of Sao Tome's coach. Boniface, Osimehn, Awoniyi and Orban against his team is something that is scary. I wish I can say the same about our Midfield and defence.

daveP:
Miracle too like ball
She miss pk dey cry like baby. Var help her that day.


Who's next? Afolabi? Esther? Flourish?

Na Sebastine I wish to see make a move. With a good coaching, that girl will terrorize defence.

Nigeria vs Sao Tome first leg... We were already wining by 9 goals when we won a penalty. The look on this coach is just so priceless


Man be like '9 goals nor do them, una still dash them penalty' 🤣🤣🤣

jpmoriarti:
Ballon d'Or nominated Odegaard & Saka, who bottled the league & got mudded by Sporting in the Europa League.

They nominated Bellingham, who bottled the Bundesliga. Even Musiala.

But they didn't nominate Ter Stegen, Pedri, FDJ & Koundé who won LaLiga by breaking records on Madrid's head.

Unbelievable. Shocking.

Not vex
Make Dem wait for the supplementary list or VC list. E sure me say their names go dey one of the two.

Deltamani:
Of course we need a new CB and a Younger one for that matter as we’re done with Mama…

Mama can’t be seating on the Bench when it’s best for a Younger player to fight for that Spot and gain the experience Playing National Team Football..

Exactly...I'm surprised she has not announced her retirement.

Kog45:
Enter boys…

Kelechi and Oversabi.... why you go carry power bank enter camp

While you all are still on this Umeh vs Dinehin debate, I'm just glad we might have another CB in the team soon.

Deltamani:
Abia Angels to Spain

Congratulations to U17 right back Miracle Usani she has signed with Laliga Academy Spain...

Wow ...wow... congratulations girl. The first footballer that scored the most difficult penalty

Deltamani:
NEW OUTLOOK 💙💙💙

Ajibade stir reaction on social with new hair style

That third picture though

I really wish we have the depth at the RW like we have on the left wing.



At the right wing, we have the wide forward type 5 (Martinelli), we have the proper winger (Nelson) and we have the creative one (Trossard). Saka alone combines this three but he need a backup. Make interhouse cup start asap make we see Lucky Dube.

Jorginho has been a big brother and a true Arsenal dressing room leader.

This man is really enjoying his time with Arsenal. Jorginho couldn't even focus on the warm-up to prepare to be thrown into the match, but he celebrated hysterically when Declan Rice scored.

The midfielder also continuously directed, shouted to encourage his teammates not to give up when the match was not over. No different from an assistant coach outside the touchline.

Jorginho's role seems to be getting bigger and bigger at the Emirates Stadium. Really admire the behavior and dedication of this man.

Your thoughts...

#Arsenal

Nicolas Pepe will join Besiktas. The player passed a medical in Paris today. Pepe accepted Besiktas’ proposal in ‘recent hours’, after initially rejecting them earlier in this transfer window.




£2m Loan deal with obligation to buy for £6m.

Shegzdave:
Let's just leave Saka cuz I remembered last season, something like this happened at the beginning of season where he missed some goals and some thought he's loosing his mojo only for the dude to pick up almost immediately..

Look forward to another great feat from Omo Ologo (as Roland calls him).

So in one word, Saka na Tiger generator wey dey get plug problem when you wan start am but immediately it starts, no going back.

Deltamani:
TRANSFER NEWS:

Falconet midfielder Bashirat Amoo has left NWFL side Nasarawa Amazon to join Uzbekistan Women's League where she will be representing PFC Sevnich Karshi.

I wish her well..but Uzbekistan?


A very fine midfielder though. She and Ezinne Kalu are the two players I would love to see in the SF setup in future

Jodera:
I heard Partey is probably out for 6weeks

Wetin dey do this guy sef.... why groin of all places. He better go and marry make all these small girls no go spoil his ......hmmm

daveP:
Mercy Idoko with 4 Assists and a Goal. Wow

My pikin... I have been noticing her since that tourney. I like her playing style. Pacy, Rugged and fast. Wishing her all the best.



Flourish better comot that league asap.... her mate dey abroad now and she is supposed to be their star. Esther sef. Make both of them sha eat enough Akpu before they comot. That their stature eh..

Kibbs:
lovewins, I know you’re different from me but I’m definitely not one to reply or engage dimwits. I know an intelligent person when I see one and he’s not worth wasting your time on or attempting to educate.

His brain is filled with insults, not logic. Just leave him be and add him to the list of the blackisted monikers on the thread. Everytime he extorts a reaction from you, it’s a win for him. Don’t give him or his brothers that.

I trust you.... You no dey mince word.

Jodera:
I know Havertz will start. Like I said, I can manage that a bit as long as our back 4 is not touched or Partey doesn't play RB.

If you watch our ball ystdy, you'll know he was our only weak link. Prior to ystdy match, we had so many weak links even though we were dominating.

Isn't it surprising that it was only ystdy match that we weren't under pressure during the dying minutes. That's what you get when your core or solidity of a team is present.

Hopefully Partey is back against Everton. Na pity I just dey pity this Havertz. Man is not even trying at all.... Truly, I did say we should give him time and even tried to justify why we signed him. However, since that backpass against Fulham, I don comot hand. For the sake of our 65m, I hope.he clicks.
