Someone said "all Abraham does is score goals"
We could do with a goal or two today.

Oh we heard more than that. We heard that it is the system that enables him. And specifically, any zombie that fills in that position will score 'goals'.

Grundig:
Too many games too soon.

Having said that, asides the decent crosses he's had a poor game today

Poor game ? Really?
I thought it was only Tammy, Callum and Mount that have fans who dislike them for nothing. I didn't think Reece was on the list.

Grundig:
This same shit Will happen a few more times this season if something isn't done.

What's the point you are trying to make? You want a player who's incapable of making a mistake?

Arsenal sack Manager

Wetin do Kepa today?

Kovaciccccc

nihilistjnr:
Baba with the way Lampard set up this team, goals will be scored.

Players that we cuss are scoring

Players that don't normally score are scoring

Even rookie defenders are scoring from 30 yards.

This is the second myth being circulated. This argument seems to be saying that if we had an Aguero instead, he would have scored 20 goals already. So many things wrong with this conclusion, it is verging on dangerous.

For instance, Willian has only 2 goals this season so far, and at this rate, is averaging just about the same numbers as his normal seasons. Is he playing outside the system? This alone throws that argument out without even trying. You either know how to score or you don't. End of!

In the league so far, it's 10, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 in the order of Tammy, Pulisic, Mount, Kante, Willian, Tomorri. This mean Tammy has scored a combined number of goals as the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th highest scorers in the team.

How can anyone be arguing against fact like this?

KingAzubuike:
No big team anywhere in the world would have Abraham as their main striker. He's better off as an assistant, coming off the bench . He needs alot of freedom and space to get a goal. Na feed and score kinda striker even the feeding sef you for don feed am like 6 times before he gets a goal. It's lampards style of play that is covering his secret. You would have hated him under a Mourinho or a conte. Forget the goals, he is very blunt and unreliable.

This is another myth you keep pushing game after game after game. Dude scored again for England midweek. You are arguing against empirical evidence and trying to pass it off as fact.

Because you don't like him does not mean what you are saying is true.

nihilistjnr:
You have a point...he's not actually bad...
In the championship

12 goals in all competitions this seasons says it a big fat lie.
Because you guys like to repeat it over and over doesn't make it true.

nihilistjnr:
Very

KingAzubuike:
This Abraham is a very poor striker. He no sharp at all.

It's not true.

Emaprince:
Zouma and tomori have really been stupid and annoying in this match.

What's with all the back passes? As if they can't see any body to play to again

Do you why are they passing without instructions by their manager or do you mean why can't they defy their manager and stop all the passes?

larride:
You guys struggle against this same Leicester team remember? Even Liverpool had to depend on a 90+ dive/penalty to win them.

Leicester is actually a solid team.

Finding them tough to play against is different from being outright poor.

hensben:
Zouma has really improve. Him and Rudiger in big games will be a big plus for the team. Kovacic is criminally underrated, the way he change Geer when about to make runs is top notch.

Big games? Is this a call to drop Tomori ?

How poor is the Arsenal team ?
They are 5th for goodness sake.

SkimpleD:
Is it any wonder he warms the bench these days?

Odoi likes playing for himself. I like him as a player but he needs to learn how to play with others.

Fundamentally wrong. Take this from someone who's watched him since 15. That's the hallmark of his game - vision and ability to put the ball in dangerous areas for his team mates. Under Frank, he is learning to score goals and be a game changer. This is why you see taking shots. But you never see him not adhering to the basics.

He's 19; and as such, at this level, you will see many mistakes. Criticism is okay but to say Odoi does not play with others? Really?

donjazet:
Nateevs, do you play fantasy?

I don't anymore. I no dey remember to change my team
So I always found myself at the bottom.

Clean sheet. 3pts.

Ibime:
Mount does most of the pressing in the front 4.

He doesn't need a rest.

What you are seeing is that by the time the ball enters our half, Mount has done copious amount of fast paced pressing in opponent half, so will.not be as sharp.

Most of the pressing! I think most distance covered per game after Jorginho, game after game.
All you see here is remove Mount, remove Mount, without looking at the intricacies of the tactical set-up.

Emaprince:
Odoi wey no fit score. See your life?

Dude you can complain for the world.

Puliiiiiii

Unlimited22:
Who saw our no 17's work before Willian flicked the ball on brilliantly?



Another day, another Mateo Kovacic apprecation post. And this dude is like 25 or 26.

Seen! Top player.
He's 25.

Palace are bunkering with 9 players on a regular in their half and we are blaming Tammy.
All sorts of talk. Some of you guys can be so impatient.

22 years and you are looking for A-list striker. How many A-list strikers at 22 can you name?
Meanwhile, he is joint top scorer in the league.

Tammmyyy!

Pulisic showing serious promise.

What a day!

Tochex101:
As larride said this Hudson na palasa, he seems like he needs time on the bench....Lampard should not hesitate to wield the stick.

He's 18.

LordAzubuike:
Like someone said, he should have brought on giroud if at all there was need to bring another striker in. Bring players who can bring different angles to a game and not like for like players.

What's wrong with bringing in like-for-like players ?

donjazet:
Nateevs, e don tey oo, where you dey since?

Bros I dey o. Na work o contain.

3pts.

LordAzubuike:
The kind substitutions lampard dey do atimes ehn you go just dey wonder if his IQ is as high as portrayed.

What would you have done?
