You think we can't win with Vdb starting ?

One of our biggest problems post lockdown was running Bruno into the ground..
Leipzig would be the perfect game to play VDB and pogba in a diamond with Fred and mctominay, play Greenwood and martial up top, can’t play Rashford every game he’ll burn out too

Let Rashford burn out..

He needs to work on his finishing.
D more games he get D better for him..

He misses 10 chances and scores 2.

For Bruno.. I don't see why we can't overwork him D way Mancity overwork KDB.

VDB is no Bruno.
Give him time to adapt... Same with telez

Everybody for Nigeria now na hoodlums..

Nothing bad in playing 2 number 10 but the blocking 4 needs to work extra hard.

I don't see Mac or Fred doing that.

Matic is good at if but he can only last 30 minutes before he starts committing fouls everywhere

Vdb plays d Bruno position.

Playing him as a holding midfielder will destroy him.. Nd our game. He will be like Pogba.

He only knows how to run into the box not defending.

Be like playing Mason mount with kante in midfield.

Smellymouth:
Fine ore mi. What's your take on VDB?
Most of the fans are upset he's playing. I feel the same way too . Although I am still surprised he's not starting but I feel he will get his time..
So many matches coming up and I would love him to start against Leipzig though except ole wants his own thunder that cannot be hidden like palliatives.

Why start him against Leipzig that on hot form.

We need to win that game to qualify for d next round oh.
If we win that.. And win instabul twice den draw PSG that's sure qualification.
He can play after that

StatmanTolu:
Yes oo. Already scored as many Epl goals as Giggs. He really deserves the statue.

He's a premier League legend no doubt...

Only sad that ENGLAND didn't give him a chance..

First time in 47 years.

Vardy deserves a statue outside d kingpower

Vardy with half fitness.

TheGiftedOne:
With Man U, Chelsea, and Man City all dropping points this weekend, little wonder many here wish Arsenal also fall short of maximum points tonight.. But truth is with a manager like Arteta Arsenal are more likely to win than loose.

Hehehehehehehehehheehheheehehheheehhehehehehehehehehehheehehehehheehehhehehehehehhehehehehehehehehehhehehehehehehehehehhehehheehhehehehehehehehhehehehehehhehehehehehehhehehehehehehehehehhehehehehehheheheh

Chaii.
When I tot Chelsea vs manutd was boring..

Dis arsenal match is shocking..

Arsenal wan kill Leicester with pressure yet partey after partey still Siddon for blocking 4.

What is he protecting exactly..

ChristineC:
?? why is this even a consideration
is Chelsea a team of aliens?

On paper they poses a very potent attacking line up..

Fred nd mactominaty didn't switch off yesterday.
Vdb is more attack minded.

patrickmuf:
Has Telles played against PSG with Manchester United before or Cavani against Chelsea? Your excuse doesn't hold water here.

For clarity, no one is saying VDB must start but for a player of his quality, he has to be getting game time. It's still here I will see people complaining that Bruno is fatigued.

VDB is not ready.

Dont make decisions on sentiment.

Starting Lineups are determined on the training ground.
When he's ready we would see more of him.

ChristineC:
VDB could have started ahead of Mata and James to better effect. when you have too much of your better players on the bench then it becomes impossible to right your errors in-game because you are only allowed three subs. Evra's context is relatively from Ole's point of view. the whole thing is now looking like Ole isn't happy with the purchase probably because that wasn't the transfer he wanted, and let's face it, VDB is fitter than both Pogba and Cavani at this stage, so not sending him on first is a farce.

Send out someone that has not played against Chelsea with manutd before.. Okay oh

KingAlabi:
I guess this was why the penalty was waived

Fair game??

Oboy see hug lol

pharod:
Starting Mata was a wrong decision because Chelsea will never completely sit back. VDB would have done better because he's more mobile. Is Pogba on a small salary? Ighalo has 2 months left so this being Mata's final season has nothing to do with it.
After all this excuses for mata(who I like by the way), what do you have to say about James?

We'll, the coach said that some of them played a lot of games during the international break and they are tired. I'm willing to accept the excuse for now even though it doesn't make sense because Bruno I can't remember the last time Bruno rested.

Mata amongst others deserved to play.
What are u even saying.

Mata sent Rashford tru on goal 1 on 1... But rashidi missed.

Mata also curled an absolute peach that Mendy had to produce a brilliant save for..
Mata also send Daniel James tru on goal..


Amongst d creative players on d pitch yesterday. Mata was d best..
James was shit.
Bruno waa not in d game.
Rashford was hot nd cold.

patrickmuf:
If you're VDB, how will you feel watching James and Mata start ahead of you? Mata isn't bad but he is only useful when we play against teams that will sit back for most of the play asking us to break them down if we can...

Brooooo..

Mata is more technically gifted Dan VDB na.

And do u know for how long mata has been waiting for his chance..
Also he's not on a small salary oh.
This is also his final season.
Dey reason all dis things too.

We haven't played up to 8 games and people are already screaming for vdb to start all d games..

None of our new signing has played more games dan him u know.

patrickmuf:
Guy forget o! I watch almost all of Liverpool games and Klopp some how manages to give all of them quality game time...Even Milner gets games too.

No dey talk like dat Biko..

How many matches kieta nd fabinho play for in first season.

Vdb no be Messi wey go Just enter team straight up.. We all saw d training ne work effort mactominaty put in during lock down.. We all saw what dey both did against Newcastle nd psg. Nd dey were amazing against Chelsea..
For dem to bench an attacking player like Pogba who is VDB.

They will all get dia chance.. If we win Leipzig this coming Gameweek we go play am for d next game..

After Leipzig we play arsenal..

Nd everton some days later.

Evra na big mumu oh..

See Liverpool has keita on bench stand by
Fabinho was on bench almost all tru his first season
Wiju is always on bench too.
Chelsea dey bench jorginho.. Mount.
Mancity for dia midfield only kdb is assured of starting.

Season just started..

We are playing 3 games every 7 days.

Everybody screaming vdb vdb vdb should stop Biko...
He will get his chance..

Goalless

One last attack..

One last attack

Theses players are playing as, if dey don't have insurance..

No risk involved..

Mendyyyyyyyy ohhhhhh

This is what, we call safe football

iamoyindamola:
Make I see AWB enter England NT na

There can be a mass outbreak of polio and chicken pox
.

15 minutes more.

No shots in d last 15 minutes if am not mistaken.

If a winner comes.. It's either lucky or decisive.

No quality from both teams. At all.

Rashford naaa.

Be clinical for once

olabode89:
chai Fred's passing is weak AF

I smell vdb or Greenwood

This match should end joor.

Lemme see if Liverpool Sheffield will be more interesting

D way bissaka dey chest ball funny die

adisaaowala:
I no even understand...

Is this supposed to be a diamond with Cavani/Rashford upfront?

Rashford even seems to be on the left

Bruno and Pogba are our wingers..

Which is music to Chelsea ears..

Space is now showing in our wing areas. .

More work for Shaw and Aaron.
Fred and mactominaty.
