“In some games, Tiemoue Bakayoko has almost been a passenger,”

“Chelsea are crying out for a De Bruyne or Silva who will dominate play.” - Martin Keown

.....................

My chairman in Leeds can take his war to the former Arsenal player

It's not a lie and I can't deny it.

But Bakayoko was never in the mould of those players. Next thing Martin Keowm may ask why Thibault has not scored a hattrick yet this season.

With Luiz and Yoko joining the list of injured players, kante not back yet, and Drinkwaters fitness still in question. How do we line up Moro against watford with fab being the only natural midfielder left to start in the midfield?

Cc Griffon,Nihilist,ibime,airmark and alll cfc faithfuls.

I'm not worried about the midfield. It's their flanks that have been hot for them.

That richairlison and carrilo Abi wetin be their names. Them dey worry gaan

A deep, inspirational, well-thought out history about the legendary Sir Alexander Ferguson. Well-researched article that gives you a deeper understanding into the life of the legend and how he was able to build his career from scratch before he caught the eye of United board.

His temperaments, doggedness, tantrums, determination to usurp powers that football fans are normally okay with, all well summed up in this piece. It's a long read I must tell ya, but I assure you once you start, you won't stop till the end.

A true Mancunian legend.

Thanks for the piece. I always knew that sir ref nose was an old agbero. Now I realise he was a born criminal.

There was no way any of these soft players could have messed with a nigga like that. No wonder he used boot to bust Beckham's head at the height of his popularity and my dude couldn't say a word.

I hated the man during his time at Manyoo, but I can't deny his legendary status. I'm surprised they haven't even done a movie about him sef

Whatever you guys think of what I did..I dont care


I did what I felt I had to do at that time to get downlines...Same thing the person that registered me did.

People pay to get positive reviews on fiverr just so their profile can look more attractive...Have they scammed anyone??

I already admitted that what I did was stupid and desperate..and I understand niggas would still like to self-service over this issue..y'all can go ahead

That one no mean say I no go give u hot hot if u come here come give us fake/beer parlour analysis

Actually yes, that's false advertising and its scam.

What you did is no different to one chance taxi where the victim thinks there's safety in numbers not knowing that everybody else is on the scam and he is truly alone.

You too judge yourself- why are you apologising for doing something "stupid" if it's not a scam. Creating a fake account and starting a conversation with yourself is actually not stupid - it's a smart move designed to truck people into believing there is a demand for your goods when there actually isn't. So why are you apologising for a smart move?

I'll tell you why - it's because you know it's a Scammy scumbag move.

You should have just left the conversation at 'it was a stupid move'. Period.

All this other long talk is just making you look even more unrepentant.

diggz:

Innit though? Meanwhile where is Ibime?

Thunder fire him for keeping me awake till 2.30am. He knows that I'm stubborn and will not concede defeat easily, and he will still be arguing.

I'm functioning on only 2 hours of sleep here. If you hear that an angry cranky black employee punched his manager in the balls somewhere in Leeds, just know Ibime made me do it.

Griffon:

At least the boy had the sense to not come back and claim that it was all a joke.

Griffon:
You are an obtuse fool Adelana.

What every sensible football pundit saw last night was a thrilling back-and-forth affair. It was a game Chelsea created 14 chances, one more than Roma who created 13 but NO, somehow we packed the bus according to Jon Lana Champion.

Seun suppose don create CrapBot by now, this sort of post no suppose dey surface for we eyes

Holy Guacamole!

cstr1000:
To be fair, I don't think anybody believe bakayoko was better than matic right now. Matic is the more experienced player at the highest level.
Bakayooko is supposed to be the far younger prospect( he is 23) for the future with the potential to not only to eclipse matic but possibly rival yaya toure.
I can't see that potential, and that is my problem with him.

I do. My belief that Bakayoko is better than the Serbian bag of overpriced legumes and pulses is unshakeable.

Ibime:
You don't get it do you.

Bakayoko has been playing for Chelsea 8 weeks and has the 3 worst passing records. Even if you went to dig Matic whole season last year and brought 1 or 2 matches where he only played 60 mins sef, Bakayoko still has the bottom 3 in just 8 weeks:

vs Spurs - 10 passes
vs City - 17 passes
vs Roma - 20 passes

By the time we reach 52 weeks, this guy will have like the 20 bottom results. He is persistent and consistent in incompetence.

Bakayokos passing is ãss-crack. . . .and that's the bòttom line!

I see a trend actually in both players, with the low volume pass games coming in those tough fixtures where Conte parked the bus.

I'm struggling to understand your punch line. I see the relationship between Asscrack and bottomline- but can a player be asscrack?

Plus the use of bottomline to describe a player's passing rather than an argument is strange to me - for instance 'bottom line' and 'crux of the matter' are interchangeable phrases that generally mean the same thing - an idea central to a statement or argument.

If you said 'bakayoko's passing is crap - that's the bottom line', I get It immediately. Instead this reads to me like 'Bakayokos passing is the bottomline' which is a bit...weird

Ibime:
Why you no bring matches that Matic only played 5 mins kuku join am.

Vs Manure, Matic played only 65 minutes.

The 90 minute average on all these matches above is 3 times better than Bakayoko who once made 10 passes in 90 minutes.

Pikin wey score 10% for exam, and the one wey score 30%, their beating dey different.

You mean you need more than 1 hour to make 20 passes?

Na wa o.

See excuse.

The only thing I know is that Matic was playing nonsense in all those games which is why he got subbed.

20 passes in 1 hour is poor anyhow you want to cook it

Now it's no longer Bakayoko made 20 passes - it's Bakayoko made 10 passes

That same Game yoko was MoTM with his 10 passes. Try another style bro.

Ibime:
My friend stop equating the nonsense Bakayoko serves with fake FA Cup final stats.

Bakayoko at his worst - 90 minutes match, 10 passes

Matic at his worst - 60 minutes match, 22 passes. That is 3 times better.

No matter how much Lizard do press up, he can never get alligator chest. Bakayoko is shyte! Instead of accepting jejely like Chelseafan, you dey form stronghead.

Now, I found several matches where Matic made 70+ passes, and trust me I did not search long to find one with 80 passes.

Chelsea vs West Brom, Matic made 92 passes at 87% accuracy = 80 passes. And Matic is a man that can make 100 passes in the past when not playing with Kante who prefers to rush forward than exchange too many passes.

Meanwhile if Bakayoko completes 60 passes on his best day, I go kill goat.

Chelsea Manyoo

Matic 22 passes

Chelsea Arsenal

Matic 22 passes

I fit even call Chelsea City

Matic 21 passes ( though he only played 1 half)

So why all the noise about Bakayoko and 20 passes?

Mind you yoko has mostly played in games where we packed the bus this season and without a full complement of players.

Let season end before you complain. You are already on hook for canvass, you wan kill GOAT join.

By May ending, Bakayoko fit don even cost you your car keys join..

afrodoc2:
Hahaha.
Ibime wan use Nihilist money buy the canvas for am!

Leave am. Me wet don sabi him style

Chelsea Manyoo at Old Trafford last season

Matic 21 passes.

So wetin come dey lead to all the noise about Bakayoko and 20 passes?

Surprise surprise Conte parks a train and the midfielders can't see ball to pass

Ibime:
Leave all this story. As a man of valour, can you back this statement with £100?

The bet is not relevant to me. If you have to do research to find where Matic completed 80 passes under Conte, then you've already made my point for me - such an event must have been a rare occasion at best.

So telling me the number of passes Matic is now making at Manyoo is completely irrelevant, if you have to demand £100 pounds and dig through the archives to find a similar performance at Chelsea.

Instead I can see Matic making 22 passes in a cup final. So why are you shouting Bakayoko and Aaliyah up and down? Does he look like Rkelly or DMX?

Ibime:
Stop being disingenuous. Matic played 60 minutes against Arsenal. That means he would have completed 33 passes in a full match, and that's the worst you could find. Meanwhile Baka can complete 10 passes vs Spurs, isn't that disgraceful?

Now to the matter at hand. You claimed Matic has never completed 80 passes under Conte. Put £100 where your mouth is to compensate me for time I will spend on research.

See excuse. As if 1 hour is not more than enough time to make more than 22 passes.

Even if you project to the 33 passes, that's still the same number of passes that the Fabregas you said cannot control game, made today.

Mind you I can also give excuse that Yoko is injured.

I brought out 2 clear examples

Kante went from 77 passes in a game we won 5-0 to 25 in a game where we parked the bus.

Matic went from 79 passes in a game we won 5-0 to 22 passes in a game where we parked the bus.

So why are you complaining about Bakayoko making 20 passes in a game where we parked the bus?

Ibime:
He made 86 passes, completed 79. I no check his matches, I just went straight to that match cos I know he was on form that day.

Oya bet £100 that he never completed 80 passes under Conte

I don't have to put £100 on nothing. If you could find the 80 passes you would have posted it by now.

Mind you that same Everton game you're talking about Kante also managed to post 77 passes.

This season against Spurs, he only managed 25.

I won't look at those numbers and say that Kante forgot how to pass between Everton and Spurs. I look at the tactics against Spurs and see that the low pass volume was part of the game plan.

I'm too sure today that of Matic played today his numbers would not be far Bakayokos. That's what happens when we park the bus.

Afterall, Matics last game for us - FA Cup final, he only completed 22 passes .

Ibime:
Matic completed 79 passes vs Everton last season

Congrats you were unable to find a match where Matic made 80+ passes under Conte.

Goodnight bro.

This 6 defenders thing still dey bust my head.

4 centre backs and 2 full backs on the pitch at the same time.

What the hell

Ibime:
That's what midfielders do to take pressure off, not ping ponging ball back and forth, losing it and putting team under pressure like Yokozuna.

But Matic never made the 80 passes under Conte.

He also never surpassed Fabregas under Conte so all this one is story for the Gods.

When you have the likes of Rashford Lukaku Mata Mkhitrayan generating movement in front of you, it's easier to make passes than when you are playing with 6 defenders...and all of them are behind you.

Tactics is the reason for pass volume not ability. If you can show me where Matic made 80 passes in one game under Conte I will concede otherwise...goodnight

Ibime:
Chelsea had 40% possession today, Baka completed 20 passes

Utd had 38% possession vs Liverpool, Matic completed 49 passes.

There are things midfielders do to control dangerous moments in a game and take pressure off that you won't see.

Matic vs Manyoo still had 11 more passes than Fabregas today.

Fabregas is a more capable passer of the ball than Matic will ever be.

The same Matic under Conte never hit 80 passes once.

I'm seeing a difference in tactics for the difference in pass volumes. Nothing to do with ability. I'm sure if look for Fellaini pass volume it will be something similar.

Abi no be short back pass to centre back be the majority of the pass?

diggz:
Bruv no amount of tactics will explain how rubbish yoko is please. ..he is an eyesore ffs!

Bakayoko played crap today no doubt, but number of passes is not what I'm looking at because I could see from the tactics that we did not generate any meaningful movement with our tactics.

Our wing play was dead because Conte started with no wingers and obviously told our wingbacks not to overlap too much.

Our attack tactics was literalky give the ball to hazard and let him run at the Roma defence. When he loses the ball, everybody bunker with even Morata and Hazard defending in our own half.

Our tactics was shït

Conte: I didn’t like the type of football we did for a lot of the game, but it’s right to take the responsibility for this,” Conte said. “I tried on one hand to protect my team, to become more solid and to move our central defender into midfield. On the other hand we lost totally our style of football

Ibime:
That means Fabregas completed double while Luiz got subbed early.

Matic cannot be caught making 20 passes against Roma.

Fabregas made less than half the passes Matic made.

That says it all about the tactics. Infact I don't think he completed the full 39 sef cos his pass accuracy was something like 85 or so percent.

Meaning that Fab only really completed 30 or less passes. I guess fab too is a fowl that cannot piss.

Conte has already said he got the tactics wrong. I agree completely.

Ibime:
Matic made 85 passes away at Benfica today. Baka made 20 at home to Roma.

It's easy to form midfielder until them ask you to do midfield work.

To piss no hard, but fowl no fit.

Number of passes no mean anything. Fab completed 39. Luiz 18.

Blame the tactics. Conte has already kuku said today that he got it wrong.

Choi!! I nor see this before... Shekpe people are always so disappointing

Na Madrid fan

Lmaooo....ds talk pain you gan o.

E pain me because this guy has the ability to be making ballon dor podium every year.

Can you imagine neymar or griezman chatting such greasy talks?

Richairlison is a good player on that Watford left wing.

We need to come up with something sensible this weekend

Conte just said he made a mistake in the formation

It's the 'you know' part of the yarns that pissed me off the most.

The fool actually expected the reporter to know that he is allergic to goals
