What do you guys think of the Joao Felix rumours?

All the best to Michael Carrick who has been appointed Middlesbrough manager.

How good is Ivan Toney? I've watched him closely a few times and I still can't tell.

TrebleChamp:
I love the guy die

These argies have a way of letting us fall in love with them and then break our hearts. I'll take my time with this one.

The system is obviously working but our front three are letting us down with Sancho being the biggest culprit. Rashford is not a CF and even Antony sometimes does too many fancy flicks without going anywhere.

We also need a CM that has better legs than Eriksen who usually gets gassed by 60-70 mins.

It also appears that in-game substitution is not ETH's strongest point. Finally, he has to start getting some of these young players like Garnacho and Iqbal some minutes here and there.

I'm not sure we have good bench options for ETH to make effective subs.

Maybe someone can get Ighalo on the phone.

I can laugh now because we didn't lose but I was fuming.

I don't want Gakpo or some that prefers playing off the left or off the right. I want Striker. One that only wants to play as a 9. Upfront like Haaland or even Darwin sef. A striker. Please.

Chelsea won't allow us time on the ball like Spurs did. Your touch and passing in midfield have to be assured which is why i prefer Eriksen. Fred had a monster game against Spurs but i am never sure which Fred is going to show up on match day.

The choice between Fred and Eriksen depends on how the manager wants to approach the game. It is key that Casemiro plays and plays well though.

For sure Casemiro is key. You're right that only God knows which Fred turns up on any given day. Either the one that plays like he's never seen a football before or the all action midfield dynamo. Here's hoping the team turn up and get the 3 points today.

afrodoc2:
It is going to be a tough game. I am interested to see how much possession we can have against another good team that is not going to sit back like Spurs.

Line breaking pass is important so I see why you have Eriksen back in alongside Casemiro but do you think Fred's industry might work better against Chelsea's energy? I feel it's abit risky away from home with that lineup.

LostMyZeal:
I should read a report from a media so hell bent on finding faults with the guy ba

And what's with the game management misyarn wey you dey do?

Even your fave, being a key player, will not appreciate a boss who's trying to play police catch thief with him

That's petty

And Until it's confirmed from the horses mouth that he refused to play, y'all can keep masturbating with that speculation

I might as well tell you he stormed off because he heard a bad news from home or sh*t catch am

Why do you think ETH is lying about CR refusing to play?

Mrviktor:
He don talk sorry..

Make una forgive am.

So CR has acknowledged he was wrong but no apology. What a statement. Good to have money so you can get the best PR money can buy.

Cristiano just embarrassing himself. Its the end of the road for him now at the club. Absolutely no need for the petulance.

Youngzero2:
If we can get maximum points from Tottenham and Chelsea this week ,I think it would give us the momentum we need to go on a winning streak.The morale boost would be helpful

That's the dream scenario. Would be ok with 2 points from those 2.

We need a striker in January badly.

Nervous about this one. Newcastle are a tough team.

timay1:
He was initially arrested for Rape and threat to kill.

Now the actual charge changed to attempted rape and coersive behavior and assault

Seems they didn't get enough to charge him for Rape. And the released audio tape and pictures might even be the basis for the coersive behavior and assault charge and a good lawyer might get the court to dismiss it as per arguing that it's a normal couple disagreement with no real malicious intent.

Meaning that Greenwood will get a slap on the wrist punishment like Fine, and/or community service for assault as a first time offender.

Although Man Utd will probably sell him with his handlers moving him to play in other leagues like Italy or Spain.

But his career is not over like a lot of people will like to see. He's still young, and can still bounce back with determination and hardwork together with his talent.

That's why I said United career.

gameboy727:
He was arrested for breaching bail conditions I think. I don't think anything new has come up regarding his case.

He's now been charged.

Either way his United career is over.

femianski:
Guy it seems you were watching a different match. He came on and changed the game. Xavi is currently receiving the sticks for not starting him.

He was excellent when he came on.

afrodoc2:
He is still struggling a bit with the pace of game. That was the cause of some of his careless passing yesterday.

Yup. But he recovered well overall. Showed good mentality.

We nearly made it difficult for ourselves but God did!

We really paid Real Madrid 60m to get a finished Matic which we already had. Madness.

[quote author=maik99 post=117416986][/quote]Eriksen seems tired to me.

akwesenana:
That man no go gree.

He should start wan bisakka though.

Unless you mean in goal?

Everton away not a good ground for us. Especially as they seem to be playing well.

Hopefully Varane is fit. Usual back 4 although Shaw can probably come in for Malacia.

Casemiro Fred and Bruno midfield

Antony Martial Rashford

Would be my preferred.

Leyqute:
Isn’t this what you wanted?

Please, I'm on ibuprofen at the moment. Take it easy on me.

Probably shouldn't watch the 2nd half.

Malacia having a shocker.

We're losing to some part time call center analysts.

adebayo201:
Get well soon Bro.

Thanks. feeling better after resting today.

MRTA7:
I have too much peace of mind right now. I miss watching this team. Can't wait for our next match for my blood pressure and general mental health to reach unacceptable levels.

Nah me take my mouth ask for wahala. Now fever don start. smh.

Borntosmoke:
Nobody is talking about 100 million Antony. Brazilian pocolee, except the goal he scored, he offered nothing in the match. We should offload him and that fraudcho to team wey need them. The earlier the better. We can still make 150 million .on both of them if we sell dem.

He's played 3 matches. Everyone's blood just dey hot. No patience anymore. You people forget its not everyone that will hit the ground running like Haaland.

You people need to be calming down o. na wa.

That result and performance is all on ETH. I just hope he continues to learn quickly. There will be bumps along the way to making the team a force again but he needs to be a fast learner.

Maybe the juju Pogba was doing landed on Maguire by accident. Maguire needs to move to Italy to revive his career. he's a walking footballing disaster at the moment.
