Every time dem shift the post and shot to score, Raya's golden palm reaches to deny them at the goal post😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Dem go soon taya. Na Denial stage dem dey for 5 stages of grief.

If that penalty kick had gone in, it would have changed the outcome of the game.
I need that 4th golden glove.
He's on 3 now. I think that Hull goalie comes second. He go soon drop sha by the time other teams pick up.

Lush100:
Hshahahahahhahaja.


U funny die.
Raya na keeper.
Omo we go need to get a younger version in 5 years rime

Missing out on Garcia pain small.
The guy is equally good. Not like the jokers we packed for squad wey dey call themselves backups.

Fkforyou:
Omo! Today’s match was epic.

Xhaka is still a good midfielder and a leader. Kudos to him.

Kudos to Arteta for bringing in midfielders instead of defenders.
He has learnt his lessons from last season.

Having said that, unfortunately I don’t think those subs were useful in this game because all of them were weak players. I would have preferred he brought Hincapie and push Cala upfront.

Thank God he did not bring madueke to come and be losing possession anyhow.

Ben White is coming to the end of his time at Arsenal. He can’t stay fit to save his life and even when he is fit, he is a defensive liability that can easily lose possession/duels anyhow.

I don't really see anything wrong with his subs.
He got a lots of criticism from fans about how many games Rice featured in last year.
Some people here were also talking about how Rice and Ode needs rest. He has subs and he used them. It's left for the subs to measure up.

TheSuperNerd:
They did that training specially for Arsenal. 😂

😂😂😂
Only to get flogged.

FiveFootNinja:
Did they change the site fonts again or is it just getting uglier in my eyes?

They did. I found out after i changed my phone font severally. I first thought someone messed with my phone sef cos i no dey change fonts frequently

TheSuperNerd:
See wetin Semi Ajayi do Chelsea player, Malo Gusto...

NAIJA POWER! 😂

I think he has bulked up a bit. He looks bigger now.

BTW, thought Chelsea trained with rugby bag few days ago 😂😂😂

TheSuperNerd:
But truth be told... Nwabali should have done better to prevent the late equaliser. Chippa were so close to a shock win.

Had a great game but one mistake cost them 2pts.

Should have added more power to the punch.
BTW, is this Van Wyk related to that of Banyana Banyana?

3 clean sheets in four games.
Anywhere person talk say na defence dey help Raya, make una gather beat the person.

With due respect, ori ref yi ti daru
Gabi was protecting his teammate ffs.
Where dem carry all these f**ls come from sef. Gabi was even pulling Konsa away

Instead of Gyokeres, e better make we bring in Merino abeg

Just chip the ball Havertz 😩

Muscle wey God give you wey you suppose use hustle WWE, you dey use am play ball.

Obafemi wey carry em muscle go WWE na mumu abi

Tzolliiiss

I was about to come here and asked why Bruno was not in yet because we need those outside shots.

randy01:
Which kind of formation is Sunderland displaying

And if we managed to score a goal to bag the three points rivals and some Arsenal fans will start dragging the coach about being too defensive blah blah

mostob:
I mentioned him specifically knowing how fragile White jas been lately. At least till Timber is fully fit, Mosquera can give White some breather. Our RB situation has become worrisome lately. Timber plays too many games with White out. White comes back only for Timber to go on his own sabbatical. Rinse and repeat. Mosquera need to stay fit to at least assist balance things out till both are fit and can share minutes.

White don carry his usual injury again. I still talk this thing this morning o.. Smh

TheSuperNerd:
Chelsea and Cleansheets are not friends lately.

Ajayi and Hull ensuring their defence leaks continue.

With Alonso at the helm, i don't see them getting a clean sheet anytime soon

Bassey is deceptively fast

BlueRayDick:
I don't think Mosquera will ever make a good RB. His defensive game at RB is 80% and above, but his offensive rating is below 50% when he played RB towards the end of last season.

With Timber back in training, I don't ever want to see Mosquera playing makeshift RB except we are already leading by 2 or 3 goals margin towards the end of the game.

Good day guys
Please troll and banter aside, is there anyone here who is close to Jodera?
It's been a while he visited Nairaland. I hope he is doing fine

Fkforyou:
Omo!

I doubt. I am not even sure if Seun can help.

Maybe Dominique might have suggestion. He used to frequent Chelsea thread then. Make i go ask sef.

BlueRayDick:
I hope Rice is given his deserved rest today and Bruno G starts in midfield in his place.

The line up should be :

Raya
Calafiori
Gabriel
Konsa
White
Lewis-Skelly
Bruno G
Odegaard
Tzolis
Saka
Havertz

We better starts grooming Salmon. I no understand the rubbish injury Mosquera dey carry up and down. He should be replacing Ben White so the latter can rest and manage workload. The two RBs we used in pre season are good. Gutted the better of the two is out for the season.

Wingers, midfielders, defenders.

I see Mavididi.. Former hale ender.

I think his set followed Benik Afobe and Chuba Akpom then

Fkforyou:
Lol..Spy my man!

Na why Jodera no dey leave him neck that time be this..

Omo.. I just remember Jodera. I hope he's fine sha. No way to even contact the guy. There must be someone on nairaland that has his details

Fkforyou:
Justice for Ben White, no one is even defending him from here to Twitter.

Fun fact before he even mentioned names, I know say na Ben White dey call am greek salad. Na him first come my mind..lol.

The guy na agbero. 😂😂😂

Of course, the 'greek salad' is Ben White doing

https://x.com/i/status/2098100464076419289

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Christos Tzolis: “I have many nicknames here! They call me Leonidas, Tzatziki Greek Salad, Mykonos, Santorini - they call me everything! It’s only Ben White calling me Greek Salad!” 🤣🇬🇷

🎥 @SkySportsPL

You see that Ben White own, it is 💯💯 even though I'm not there.

Nigerian football is dead. Our u20 girls can't score against ordinary China.

Since I heard some of their stars won't be able to travel, I lost every confidence in them. Make dem dey come home abeg

johnjunior39:
It really bothers me that Havertz can be a better striker than someone. Any proven striker that Havertz is better that one life don spoil.

calm down na 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Just rewatching highlight now and I saw Tzolis was the one who provided the assist... He provided the assist from the RIGHT WING.
And this is not the first time he would drift across the whole front line position.

Maybe, just maybe Arteta was not the one restricting Martinelli to the width.

Komekn no gree make we rest ontop this boy that time.
I hope he finds his feet again.

FIFA requests ongoing electoral process suspended till further notice.

FIFA will visit Nigeria's football house soon in a joint FIFA-CAF situation assessment exercise.

They should buy plenty breads when coming. We are looking forward to receiving them. Eba dey, fufu dey, edikaikong dey, ofe nsala dey, black soup dey, amala and ewedu dey. 😂😂😂

On serious note, i hope this development births a reformed and efficient system. It won't be bad to hand a life time ban to some corrupt members. Dem don too mess up our football.
