No it's in our hands we are currently 4 points ahead having played a game more than city.
If we best soton and manage to get a point at Etihad then we will be 7 points ahead with 2 games ahead of city, that will shift the pressure to city to win their outstanding then hope we drop points
City still have Brighton and Brentford to play away
We have Newcastle and city away
It's in our hands anyway you look at it we must beat soton on friday

I no go doubt you bro.
But can you confidently say we will beat City?

Jodera2:
This is emotions talking. League still dey our hand.

We just need to do what we always intended to do which is to win all our matches and draw Man city.

Mathematically, league is still in our hands!
Today's draw didn't change the fact

Jodera...I like to be realistic when it comes to Arsenal's matter.
Everybody is allowed to believe but me..I don comot mind.
The one wey Dem do me last year ehn..I still dey feel am.

Saka fumbled today no be small... See person wey dey hold us to ransom..

Roland17:
Why you dey kill the small hope wen I get na? So make I forget title be that?

To be on the safer side ni. No allow them shatter your heart.
Mae we dey prepare for pre season like this....

Roland17:
The only good thing is that everything is still in our hands. We have a more difficult run of games to finish the season in comparison to City and that worries me. We play Southampton on Friday, we have to get maximum points and hope we can regain some confidence heading into the game against City.

Let's talk true and shame the devil. Nothing dey our hand again. Our draw against Liverpool made it a tie. Losing another two points today kinda seal the title for City.

Leicester abeg na...

elyte89:
Definitely…he’s an old member

Yea...

Marjoribanks:
So what is an 8? There is nothing like a false 9 in football. A false 9 is a tactical creation that occurs when you use a winger/midfielder/SS to play as a top 9 without a SS. You categorizing Messi, Muller, Firminho, Mane under the same position shows your lack of football knowledge. lol! I am done!.

8 is a CM that usually operates as a B2B.
Lukaku, Ibrahimovic, Lewandowski, Aboubakar, Onuachu, Osimehn, Diego Costa, Benzema /// Firminho, Messi, Muller, Mane.
Can you differentiate between these two groups of attackers?

isan:
Add Ajakaye

oh..I didn't know sha. FC Robo has been giving us better players sha.

AndSunGorilla:
Smart smith probably.

No..Smartsmith was not this insultive. Purplehouse probably or that Ph.D guy.

Oshoala Ajibade Gift Very soon , Esther Onyenezide. FC Robo to the world.

Marjoribanks:
Define a striker for me. Arguing with you guys is like pouring water into a basket! Thank God you said you don't know ball.

Whilst a 9 is generally the main striker and a 10 is the secondary striker, a false 9 is a combination of both . The false 9 has the freedom to drop deep from the forward position into midfield, allowing them to receive the ball deeper in the pitch and creating space to allow the midfield or wide players to run into. Mane, Messi, Muller, Firminho are not strikers, they're false nine

Danielnino00:
From his utterances since his moniker surfaced on this thread, you can tell what kind of person he is... Let him tag Messi a striker na...since Messi under Guardiola was one of those who made the false 9 role so popular

I think he doesn't understand the meaning of versatility. Mane has played as a forward yea, but that doesn't make him a striker. I still think he is an old member of this thread who change moniker.

Danielnino00:
You obviously have no idea what you're talking about...

Una dey try sha... No be say I Sabi ball like that o but calling Muller and Mane a striker? WTF

is the no-look flip from Gift for me....
The girl sef na something else. Always in every video.

Amedino99:
that arrangement probably started when he started his playing career in order for him to focus and not lavish his earnings unnecessarily. Smart move. So now hakimi can even claim half his wife assets during the divorce proceedings as per less earning partner. his morher is a confirmed Ogbon sodiki

Wait, he will still collect something from the wife? o boy...the hunter is now being hunted.
May God bless that mother. E good make person no dey lose guard sha.

If this news about Hakimi is true, he should be crowned the smartest African footballer of his decade.

daveP:
Kanu and Onumonu will make that list. Especially Kanu. Headache for final list loading

Headache no dey anywhere. The team already picks itself unless something surprising spring up between now and June. That Onumonu no too dey follow. Look at how Desire would hold up the ball and release a clean pass. Onumonu no fit do am jare

elyte89:
In three simple words …FEAR OF RACISM towards osimhen

dts my understanding of his post

Sane is Black.

What he meant is that Osimehn get small temper. The altercation that happened between Mane and Sane was because of utterance. Imagine Osimehn shouting (like he did against GUB) during the game, Dem fit throw blows.
You get?

E don finish... Zambo red card

Hope Arteta dey watch these UCL matches sha... make e no be say na basket we go dey use pack goals next season o..

Arsenal has neither draw nor lost a single game with the first eleven this season.
I dey pray make Saliba come back asap... God abeg

How do you guys see this List??

Excellent selection. Gift and Nicole for me.

BascoVanVeli:
If he put his hands on Waldrum he must go but if it was just a argument, they'll get over it. I didn't feel there was any beef between the 2. U could even hear the Nigerian coach passionately defending Randy at the end when they said he made an extra Substitution.



For me the real story is the coach that wasn't there. Would Randy have made the same decisions with her presence? I think the Nigerian coaches need to be talked about because this proves without a doubt that they bring something to the table. It was just Randy and them and they got it done.

Wow... excellent observation Basco. How come we have been getting results without that Grandma in the team?
I didn't even notice.

daveP:
I'll still love Ify to go to wwc. She deserves a spot on the plane. Like this lady wan die the next day after she miss pk. She was moody inside swimming pool


The truth is our WC campaigns, the last two, na only Oshoala get pace that threatens opponents. Our tempo is not among top 20. If we can just switch it, there'll be a few casualties.

I'm rating the irish o. They are really physical and have a good goalie. Just not threatening up front. We should get 3points without slacking at the back. Defensive errors has caused 6goals in last two Wwc for us.


As For Oshoala,i dunno. Looks like she's a 60min player. Ajibade is 65. What they offer after this time is just not good enough especially as they don't even have power to defend again. Esp not to risk injury that will deflate our attacking flair.

I'll take Kanu as the 3rd CF as well as a backup on the wing (even a starter sef)
Onumonu can sit down abeg...

iamoyindamola:
Yes ok but did you see apari formation tonight
Na overthinking go kill him

No over thinking bro. Na normal formation with Stone at RB

iamoyindamola:
Can Leicester new coach do normal

New manager bounce!

carbonado:
.....lol, she must way up to 2 bags of rice(100kg) , that lady must have had a near death experience(NDE), must feel like been hit by a keke napep....

Danielnino00:
Assuming she still has a lot of pace now, she would have bullied those Moroccans at the WAFCON...

Desire? Bro.. Desire is deceptively fast. Faster than Onumonu sef

carbonado:
....Desire,Esther,Asisat upfront, Ajibade to the bench.....Desire will cause problem with that size and hold up play which will result in freekicks, as it stand, i think we have 3 people that should be taking our free kicks, Desire, Esther and Plumptre..Also i do like to ask, where do you think this leaves Ucheibe.... . This squad is loaded, i hope Randy can pick the best for each position per time.

No way Ucheibe sit on the bench. One of Jenny or Tony will have to make way. BTW, Ayinde won't be available for our first two games so that practically sort itself.

Deltamani:
Onome look pregnant to me sef… anyway joke aside Age is telling on her, e nor easy

Pregnant? I didn't notice that one.
And yea, age is catching up. She should be going to 41 by now.

carbonado:
My take on the match, note i did not watch the whole game:-
1) Desire still has a lot to offer, Onumonu has not been too impressive since WAFCON. That goal showed it. her hold up plays are good, and she made some really good passes in both games. Also, Desire can help with direct free kicks, something i think Plumptre has also, they both have a connon in their legs. We must look for different ways to score goals.
2) Ajibade should be dropped to the bench please, we have too much talent go through this. This is not a ball juggling contest, pass the damn ball.....She also missed those opportunities before Desire scored. Esther should replace her upfront, Desire should pushed back to the starting line up with Asisat and Esther, till Ajibade shows up again, she can use the bench.
3) Immoran and Demehin are settling in good, Alozie also had a nice game. Also happy for Onyi, she is growing.
Please what does Desire weigh/ , that lady she fell on could not stand up.

You noticed it too.
It will take about a week before that girl can get herself. Next time, she no go dey contest ball with someone twice her size.
Desire is probably the biggest in that squad.
