TRendlona:
Just because he is having a good start doesn't mean u shud start comparing him to Bale and Neymar, especially Neymar. Pedro had a bright start wen he came to Chelsea and see what it has yielded to now.

Let's still wait till towards the end of the season b4 we can start our judgement.

Talking about the stats, imagine Ronaldo or Messi or even Neymar scoring just 5 goals in a season and making just 2 or 3 assists... We all knw what d world's gonna say. Hazard didn't do anything last season and it really decreased his status.
I asked you about what you meant by consistency. I don't know what Ronaldo, Messi and Neymar are doing in the conversation.

What is your definition of consistency? And how has Hazard not been consistent?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Nihilist: 1:12pm On Aug 30, 2016
Trendlona would also notice that Hazard has actually got off to a very bright start again this season, though it remains to be seen if this form can be maintained.

So I want to know what consistency is.

Does struggling with injury as part of a team that really struggled last season count as a lack of consistency? I don't know who brought you guys here but hopefully we can send you back to Hades from whence you came....

Can u compare Hazard of 2014/15 season to Harzard of 2015/16 season?? That's wot m talking about CONSISTENCY!!


If u don't agree, pls kindly explain to me how Harzard has been consistent. I'm serious tho.. Really wanna knw wat u have in mind.
See key stats below for Hazard between 2012 and 2015

Notice that he improved or at least maintained his attacking input till the horror of last season which was clearly an anomaly...

Consistent :Of a regularly occurring, dependable nature.
I didn't ask for dictionary meaning sir.
I asked for the meaning of consistent as it pertains to this discussion, so that we can know where to start from.
What is the consistency? Is it goals, assists or what?

This is the Nihilist Position on Chambers here
Nihilist:
I believe that Chambers can at least be a good squad player for us due to his versatility, and I have no doubt in my mind that he will be a good centre back in future.
Next question please...

Krasid,Trendlona et al I would like you to define your meaning of 'consistent' before you guys carry on...because barring last season, Hazard has been Uber Consistent in his performances.

Christian Atsu joins Newcastle on loan.

This is for the naysayers who like to say "he failed on loan at xyz so he can't be good enough".

Christian Atsu, a Porto player, Champions league player and CAF best player at African Cup of Nations 2015 has failed on loan at Everton and Bournemouth.

Apart from a couple of unfortunate injuries, the key difference is that Porto owned and were invested in the player while Everton and Bournemouth gave 2 phucks about his progression.
Atsu is crap abeg.

He played only 139 minutes of UCL football and 17 league games in his ONE and ONLY season for Porto and, and was moved on for relative change, so I'm not sure how invested Porto were in the guy.

It's not that difficult to be best player at AFCON. A couple of months ago there was a big disvussion on the Manyoo thread about the apparent lack of tactically aware African footballers.

Atsu has gone to Everton and flopped. Same Everton that were so desperate for wingers that they signed Deulofeu and Aaron Lennon on loan and later purchased them outright. Deulofeu is even younger than Atsu sef and he saw shirt.

Atsu was compering with thr likes of Aiden Mcgeady and Arouna Kone for space on the flank. Considering how crap these guys were, any decent winger would have gotten the nod on that left flank at least.

At Bournemouth the story is even worse, Matt Ritchie had the right wing locked, but on the left flank there was virtually no competition. Max Gradel was injured all season, and Eddie Howe chose to play Marc Pugh(a 10) at left wing instead of the Afcon best left winger.

If you can't get a shirt at not 1, not 2 but THREE EPL clubs, then you're definitely not EPL material

Total War: Warhammer is pc exclusive. And i think its different from warhammer spacemarines.

.
Warhammer is a standalone brand owned by Games Workshop. Basically it's a board game like chess but with a deep lore. Spacemarines is a spin off of the Warhammer brand. The first half of my post was talking about how I generally ignored all things Warhammer including boardgame and spacemarines.

Anyways, if u like Warhammer, then i recommend Shogun 2. The game is 5 yrs old but its still the best in the series
Waaaay ahead of you there mate. I first played Rome Total War back in 05 when I was at Uni, and I've gone on to play every single edition of total war except the original Shogun and Atilla. Definitely agree with Shogun 2 being the best pre-Warhammer.

The map was small enough to not be overwhelming and the units and game play were easy to understand. Sometimes I fire up my old laptop to quickly play a couple of turns of my shimazu game post realm-divide, with my fire rockets and heavy gunners raining my deadly wrath on the Takeda who are now the only other superpower in Japan.

Warhammer has a bit of a steep learning curve though, as I'm having to deep dive into the lore and history to learn about the units. I'm currently sat in the car with my wife and son on the way to a birthday party. She's driving so that I can continue with my 'studies' grin

Total War: Warhammer.

I used to live in an area that had quite a few Games Workshop shops - there were 3 within 5 minutes of my flat, and 1 next door to my barber - but I used to just peep the models in the shop windows ad waka pass. I played the warhamer spacemarines demo on PS3 back in the day but didn't buy it....

I've been missing out.

I'm playing the TW campaign as the Vampire Counts and loooooving it. What a game. What a game.

4Thy neck is as a tower of ivory; thine eyes like the fishpools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bathrabbim: thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon which looketh toward Damascus.

5Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and the hair of thine head like purple; the king is held in the galleries.

What time to you normally have to leave your house each day? Like 5am? Cause I guess you need to hit the office before 8am!
I'm up at 5. Out the house for 6. At the station for 6.20. In London at 7.52. Then a 45 minute walk to St Paul's where I work

It's actually easier than it sounds. My service year saw me driving from Abule-egba to the island everyday. If you were a lagos boy you know what that means especially given the traffic.

You stay in Northampton and you commute to London everyday? shocked You are a transportation champion! My brother used to live in Milton Keynes, and I find it crazy everytime he had to come into London.
Used to.

Back then it used to take just 50 minutes to get to Euston.
I've now moved to a small village in Lincolnshire. It now takes 2 hours to get to Kings Cross, and I still do that everyday. grin grin

Bamford goes to Burnley.

They play 442 and have 4 strikers + Bamford.

This is the competition - Sam Vokes(75 career goals in 10 seasons), Andre Gray(24 goals in his last 3 seasons), Lukas Jutiewicz(57 career goals in 10 seasons) and Ashley Barnes that nearly broke Matic's leg(69 goals in 9 seasons)

If this boy does not make it at Burnley, then I don't ever want to hear his name on this thread again. Infact we should close down his Nairaland account 'Bimffo' tongue

PES 17 has the best graphics I've seen in a football game.

I don't know what to make of the game play though. I'm too used to FIFA's tactical defending and PES's legacy style defending saw me losing defensive shape too easily.

Passing is crisp, and the pace of the game is not as fast as FIFA. I really really like the game, but I still wont be buying it. grin
