hotwax: Calm down. Liverpool is in hot form right now. But Chelsea is one difficult team.
As a Chelsea fan, I can't predict Don't sit on the fence. Both teams are in form. With Lukaku, Chelsea are the favorite on paper. Liverpool being at home will be key for them. They didn't strengthen. Only Konate or so. |

hotwax: Jorgihno did not win uefa because he is better than Kante. He won because of his accomplishment at club and international level. No one compare to Kante except you are an arsenal fan. Kante is better than Jorginho no dispute about this. Read what I said with comprehension. I was giving example of players with great athletism. i.e players who can sprint. I mentioned one attacker in Adama Traore and a midfielder in Nkolo Kante. I never compared both. peace! |

He should come and play those triangles against Chelsea.  okay! |

Angelfrost: Jorginho ordinary??! Which sport are you talking about??!  People think that Jorginho is a slouch when it comes to moving the round leather around. People also think that every footballer must be electric and athletic like Adama Traore and Nkolo Kante. The same person who thinks Jorginho is bad will rate Pirlo, Carrick etc Of course Pirlo is better but he was equally slow. Jorginho, like Busquet are like fulcrum, they aid passing options but creating triangles. I love Jorginho because he's a great player. When Pep wants you, then you must be at least good enough. He doesn't know what he's saying! |

Angelfrost: He can only do such to a useless team... Where were the passing triangles and moves against Nuno Espirito's side?!!  There were enough triangles and passing options. I think he dominated that game. They need a finisher that's all!!! When you start Sterling, you're bound to lose because he's the second coming of Theo Walcott and Shaun Wright Phillips. I think Pep lost those big games especially the UCL final because of his stubbornness. He needs a 9 to finsh things up, Sterling missed almost 2 sitters against Spurs. |

This Arsenal is far more lifeless than a certain semi-literate president of a 3rd world African nation!

City go likely play them half field as usual!...
Still, a miracle fit happen! Never say Never! I'll be so upset with Pep if he doesn't completely pummel this stubborn Spanish Tony Pulis. A guy who was trained at the famed la masia academy @Barcelona, played under le prof(Wenger) who was and still a very attacking minded coach and then Pep, I mean we don't need to introduce Pep. What did arteta really learn from both men? Shame!!! Even a 5:0 win for City will upset me so much. I used to Love Arsenal and Arteta but mehn, the guy is just not good enough. |

DownChelsea: Ole will always be a leader figure to Ronaldo. Ever since they were teammates at Jnited And Ronaldo acknowledges and respects him accordingly.
Ole is a far better manager than Pirlo and Pirlo never had any hiccups with Ronaldo There's no headache..
Ole will find a place for Ronaldo in his team. And Ronaldo will give his best whenever he gets his role in the team to do so Hmm, a manager must win trophies to be considered good. A good strikers must score goals A good attacking midfielder must make assist Football is a game of numbers and numbers do not lie. Pirlo won two trophies at Jueventus in just a season Ole has won (0) zero trophies at united, I think for 3 seasons running now. You can argue all you want, but until Ole wins a trophy, he's not better than Pirlo who has two (2) already!!! Peace! |

All they need is Antonio Conte, Luis Enrique or any competent coach. Allow them to celebrate, reality is coming. I knew Pep will never sign Cr7 Lol This is football so I'll wait and see...

Kingcalls: I watched Madrid win it in 98, 2000, 2002... Madrid had young players ...those galaticos were relatively young ...non was upto 30 when they won it last.... u cant compare that team to psg ... neymar will not even make first team in that real madrids galatico era, neymar is notva consistent player, he is not reliable, Messi is old, he can't influence big games again...mbappe is the only true output player there...Mark him out and that team is dead .... u dont expect messi to hit the ground running , this is not PlayStation.... PSG can't win the CL even with mbappe cos expectations are already high... they dont even have that winning mentality in the CL... I guess the weakness of that French league is a huge problem for them cos they are only weak teams there ...if tough teams were there, it will also help to prepare for tough games in the CL... they should better not make the same mistake barca made by not selling messi last season , hoping he will win them CL  You write like a Ronaldo fan boy. I can deduce alot of disgust towards Messi from your write up I'm not here to argue what is or what's not because that's not what I was angling at. Neymar makes that team easily, same with Mbape, Ronaldo and Messi Leave sentiments and focus, it's focus season not banter peace!!! |

Sanchez01: Mbappe doesn't like Messi and it seems obvious. Probably as a result of playing style. Remaining at PSG with Messi means the team will adopt short ball playing styles to accommodate Messi and that will be at the detriment of a pacy Mbappe. Madrid on the other hand plays long football when which Mbappe will enjoy. Club philosophies aside, he had always wanted to play for Real Madrid.
PSG is making the same mistakes Real Madrid of 2000s made—signing world class players who are aging. The buys are good and worth it but with more over 30s in the team, the project will see the club crashing within a year or two, no thanks to injury and limits. Sorry to ruffle your feathers boy... This is a public forum. Learn to buttress your points with facts not based on what is thrown around. Who were the world class players signed by Madrid in the 2000s. And how did they struggle? A team that dominated 2000s yet you said they struggled? How  Madrid were so good in the 2000s wining UCL in 1998, 2000, 2002 and Laliga 2000 and 2003Na wa oo |

Wining Champions league and La liga. Wining UCL in 1998, 2000, 2002 Laliga 2000 and 2003 PSG are good enough for the now and for the future...The core is pretty young to be honest. Bernat, Kehler, Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Hakimi, Donnarumna(GK) Draxler, Verati, Parades, Gueye, Danilo Icardi, Only Ramos, and Messi are old..Nyemar is still 29. I don't even get is point...

jpmoriarti: Lmaoo some of you take things too seriously. If you like oppose Koeman from now till anytime, you no get the power to change anything. We're just Nairalanders. It's not like Laporta reads the comments here. So you can belong to any side of the divide and your opinion will still not make any difference at the end of the day.
8-2 reset my brain? Lame! Come off it! If we suffer such humiliation again, na everybody go suffer am. Even those who like Koeman and those who hate him.
So come down from your high horse and stop being condescending, as though you know farther than we can throw you  I'm not here to play with semantics. Coming from a guy who saw an excellent game yesterday it's incredible that I'm having a conversation with you lol Brother man, bottom line is Koeman is a very limited coach. Peace!!! |

jpmoriarti: He's a good passer of the ball and he's more intelligent than most of our present defenders. Reason he's first choice for Spain at such a young age. And he's fast too. However, he needs to work on his positioning. You're on point about EG being a good passer but that's just about it. You simply don't get it do you.. playing a player like EG under a tactically inept coach like the klown himself is asking for trouble. Enrique is as good as Pep that's why EG didn't struggle! Araujo is a beast, as far as I'm concern when everyone is fit EG should be nowhere near the starting team. Pk-RA should be first choice. Eric 3rd choice because he's not fast, not tall, weak in the challenge. Passing alone won't win UCL go ask Pep on why Gundogan was played as a DM. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Fc Barcelona Fan Thread: "més Que Un Club" by oliverano: 9:32am On Aug 22, 2021 |
jpmoriarti: I have never watched Collado play before. So I cannot say what he can do and what he can't. Koeman looked at him and Demir, and he chose the later. I always like to think he must have made his decision based on what he think is best. He has seen the two, up close and personal. We only get to watch them online.
Besides, I don't know why everyone is making a big deal out of the ATH match. Our matches with these rivals are notoriously cagey and always close especially in San Mames. I don't know what Puig could have done differently. Koeman has absolutely no faith in him. He has told him this for a fact. Dribbling through the lines is good but there is no given that it would have earned us 3 pts yesterday.
As a matter of fact, if Koeman is currently no longer coaching Barca, who do you think is a good fit for the job? It is not enough to say, sack him, sack him. He is incompetent. You have to be able to proffer a solution, for if when he is indeed sacked.
Me I will go for Luis Enrique. He should quit that his boring national team job and come back to the bustling live of being a club coach of the best club in the world.  Another 8:2 will reset some of ya brains, keep trying to sound correct with "If Koeman is sacked who will replace him" Who was Hans Flick, I bet nobody knew him until he was given the job as an assistant and boy we saw what he did. Koeman will torment all Barca fans till they all have sense. Available managers... Raff Ragnick a real disciple of Cruff Antonio Conte; one of the earlier proponent of la possession so he understands and can play possession football if need be. Xavi Hernandez (100% better than Koeman) Lucien Favre Rudi Garcia. Garcia Pimeinta All these guys especially the last three were sacked yes. But even Tuchel was sacked at PSG. They are all better than Koeman but another 8:2 in Europe will reset some of ya brains! |

andrew444: Iñaki Williams Na ekuke ,forget the pace and the power ,man cannot even average 1 goal in every 4 games ,I am glad Enrique is a smart coach ,you all saw what he did with Traore at the euros ,he will rather call up Rafa mir Inaki Williams plays like a typical African player in the NPL or Dec league. He's no different from Adama Traore and Saint Maxmin of Newcastle United. I'll take Theo Walcott ahead of Inaki. He plays as a 9 or second striker but doesn't have up to 10 goals per season. Tueh Barca were so poor that's why he looked like Mbape! Just raw pace nothing special. Enrique should stay away from Inaki if he wants to win the next world cup. Verdict; NOT GOOD ENOUGH! PS; quoted the wrong guy lol. you're right. At best he's ekuke! |

Kilishihunter: This, that's why I've been advocating we look for an experienced CB likely on loan, pique injured, Araujo and Garcia are excellent but are still one to watch for the future, De Jong and Neto really saved us today Big man, even if Barca go for prime Puyol, Nesta, Lucio, it won't change anything. The coach is the problem. It's beyond signing experience players at this point. Luis Enrique dominated these games with ease. Get a better coach and watch Barca. If you're asked, what was Koemans tactics today what will be your answer. Even Arteta will get Koeman really decked at this point. Terrible to watch una goodnight! |
