Very nervy end to the first half.. Hodoi useless so far.. Most impressive player so far has been Alonso.

It appears that way because Havertz and Werner are constantly attacking the left, leaving enough space for Alonso to run into. The same is not happening on the right, so CHO is constantly running into a wall of opposition.

CHO is not useless Abeg.

Wow! Almost

Oh Lord! I hope Ziyech is okay

Wetin do ref? How is that not a foul against us?

Missed chance Zouma

Goalllll

Havertz10:
I have listened to many arguments that push this narrative but I know an agenda when I see one, American legal system is the flaw in that stat

Anybody that peeps behind the curtain can see that it's an argument pushed for religious purposes and also because it's favors the elite to have that caveat incase of the unexpected

I think you lost focus of the debate. You opine that death as punishment is the only meaningful deterrent to high crime rates. And I give you an example where the ultimate capital punishment for 1st degree murder is enforced, yet still remains one of the highest homicide rates per capita in the world.

You cannot be aware of such stats, yet continue to hold that view. There is no data that suggests that if you kill people as a punishment for crime, that crime will stop.

Emmynator:
Your first paragraph is very accurate. What happens when peace is the price you pay for justice?
At this stage of insecurity, FG needs more terrorists surrendering, so its pertinent to create incentives for surrender. While we can all agree that the decision will raise brows, we shouldn't look at it like a totally bad decision.

Look at it this way, our struggles with boko haram means we need more information in order to combat them properly, information defectors can provide. If the government gives full punishment to terrorists who surrender, we will have less of them surrendering and more terrorists to deal with, while having less inside information.
Justice demanded the sanctions placed on Germany after the first world War, but these sanctions played a key role in the start of the second world War.

I will only advise the government to monitor them properly and ensure that they give quality information as part of their plea deal, and perhaps send some of them back as undercover agents.

Words from a thinking man. How can you defeat the enemy when you lack information of their operations and motivations?

The goal is to win not kill. And as sick, we start to explore all options of reaching the goal, including amnesty for those who will see the good, lay down arms and join the good side. Not all parts of conflict resolution is about the shooting.

This is not to say the shooting stops. But It is folly to not see that many of their fighters are coerced into the fighting. If there is a way out for these people, then that's one step towards the goal. Winning!

What we lack are radicalisation programs that ensure that people who cross the line to the good side, don't end up going back into the fighting.

Havertz10:
it's the same thing the Taliban does, i'm naturally empathetic, I can totally understand the reasoning behind their actions and their leaders actions self

your last paragraph is on the money about monitoring them but I don't think that it's that simple, you can't release a criminal into the streets and expect him to change

You have to find out what led to him committing those crimes and preventing that process from restarting, with employment rates in Nigeria, no matter how hard they try to reorientate these guys they will still fall back into that life, it provided for them, never play with a man's food, his judgment of right from wrong is skewed when his survival is on the line


Personally if I had my way, anybody that commits a crime should die, prisons are a flawed system, the numbers are there, it's an exponential growth system, it will never reduce crime or deter crime, people will forever try to game the system, only the certainty of death can deter humans, I also think that the world is overpopulated, straight forward executions is the only way forward in my book, especially for clear cut criminal cases.

This is extremely naive. The US has officially more homicide incidents per capita than most other developed countries in the world. And they have the death penalty for 1st degree murder.

There is no evidence anywhere to suggest death is a deterrent to crime rates. You think people go and pick up arms and go to war but it never crosses their minds that death could meet them at anytime during it?

How about this for squad depth?

Tammy Abraham is at the top of Arsenal's wish list this summer. The Gunners are also Abraham's first choice if he were to depart #Chelsea. [@DiMarzio via @Route1futbol]

E be like say this guy just dey make up Tory. Which one be If Abraham were to depart Chelsea? Even the most ardent Tammy supporters like myself have concluded that that Tammy is for sale.

Amoto94:
Romelu Lukaku -

"When people spoke of the best, they always used to mention Harry Kane, Robert Lewandowski or Karim Benzema. They used to say I was ‘in form’. That motivated me to work harder. I think I now have a place on that list.”

Sold on this. Boy's not short on belief and confidence. 25 goals minimum this season.

City lose another trophy.

A man can dream...

Lawdamercy! .....with Tuchel as Manager. I am keeping this dream alive!

Catfishing:
Our style of play

Elaborate abeg. This is news to me.

Catfishing:
Messi won't play well in this Chelsea.

Tuchel won't advise Baba olowo to buy Messi sef

Based on what exactly?

Sign him up!

airmark:
There's no assurance that Haaland will prefer to join us next season. Lukaku can still give us good 4yrs while the likes of Broja develops.

Which is why we should stop at nothing and do that deal now.

Lukaku's game style is not based primarily on football intelligence, good technique and finding space, so I do not see how we can get 4 years from him in the PL. It will be extremely difficult.

He will be good first season but he will burn out quickly and will need to rely on those basics, the older he gets, to continue being top class.

If you think he's bad now, wait to see what he would look like when his body slows down. The decline might be extremely painful to watch.

FBS:
Just kukuma say you don't like the player. EOS.

I do NOT dislike Lukaku. I just prefer players with a very good first touch. I mean I have to watch Werner every week, and Lukaku's first touch is not worse.

That said, what we spend money on does not come down to what I like or not. It comes down to pure financial sense. And I am sorry, just like it doesn't make any financial sense to buy Kane for £150m at 27, it similarly doesn't make any sense to buy Lukaku at 28 for the money quoted. That's a pure financial error.

The second error will be allowing one of our UK/EU rivals to potentially buy Haaland at £60m next season. We cannot allow that.

The better financial play is present and future-proofing our possibility to secure trophies by securing Haaland in our space and preventing others from having him. With Lukaku, in two years, we will be looking for another striker, while we've allowed potentially by then, the world's most lethal striker to go to say ManU and for a meagre £60m.

The third is that ever so important resale value. Even if Haaland flops after £150m purchase, how bad can it be? If we still could sell Morata for £55m (or there about) after buying him for €60m, then we can get good resale value on Haaland (potentially between 30% and 50% of purchase price), because we will buying at the right age. Unless he breaks his two legs which will be unfortunate. No way we are any such returns on Lukaku.

And if Haaland is a hit, then we would have transformed ourselves for the next decade.

That's why I say the Lukaku ship has sailed. No one is trying to buy him. Let us leave Lukaku to the rest of the world and go concentrate on the better deal.



We are going to get max two seasons of top value from him, while next season Haaland is potentially available at €75m to our domestic and European rivals

EOS.

I just heard we want to buy Lukaku for over £100m. I hope this is a joke. This will be the most expensive mistake we ever made.

I am sorry, but if we ever reach a point where we are spending over 100m on a player, it has to be for Erling.

We should play Havertz as 9 abeg. The Lukaku ship has long sailed. Why must we buy 28-year-old Lukaku for this much money?

Ibime:
3 black boys missed.

All Southgate subs for the pens.

Why did Southgate let Saka take the last penalty as a 19 year old? That's criminal.

Missed or not. That was not a good decision. Last penalty for a young boy

Yesssss

Ahhhh

Wow! See Fridge

Saved!

Roland17:
Walker, no be every time your recovery go help u oh!

Recovery is the only thing he has.

Mcguire just get play nonsense. Put the ball on the ground dude.

See Chiellini. Only Italians

seankafor:
Why does the camera shy away when a fan runs inside the pitch

Can't understand the need for censoring that

See Saka

nihilistjnr:
Why did Southgate bring Saka instead of Rashford or Grealish?

I would have brought on Sancho

Ibime:
England need to move to 4-2-3-1.

Put Saka and Sterling on their fullbacks and push em back.

Let Mount press Jorginho like Bobby

Bring Henderson on for Phillips or Rice.

Otherwise this game could go like the Croatia game at the last World Cup

He's done that
