Nothing sweet me for this match at all...doesn't feel like a win to me.

Madrid, the most powerful force in the world football after VAR and infantino

NinjaMetahuman:
Nothingham will be playing like complete amateur, but somehow they will be bringing results.


Just weird.

Not the forest I know. They play with so much panache and direction

Gucciboy:
Joao Felix will do well at arsenal just like havertz.

Or liverpool

andrewbaba44:

lovelyeyez:
It was 9 with Pluto inclusive, but around 2006, it was declassified as it didn't meet the 3 main properties of a planet.
So yeah, we have 8.

The planet in this thread is an exoplanet, it is not in our solar system. Most exoplanets orbit other stars, unlike the earth and 7 others that orbit the star we know as the Sun.

are there aliens

AirBere:
There's so much to talk about here and most of the things I'll say are already known including you but since you asked, I'll answer. I'm just basically stating the obvious but here it is.

Modern football is more data driven. There's statistics for almost everything including touches. Players are faster, stronger, training regime is insane, players eat more healthy this inturn enable them to have a longer career. Back then once you're 29, decline sets in. But here, a 37 year old Lewy is leading a treble chasing team.

Teams play more careful with possession, aimless long ball/dribbles are almost forbidden. If you must give a long pass as a CB, you must be sure that the pass must get to its destination. A manager like Pep can bench you for getting this wrong. Henry once said that he scored twice but was substituted because he left his position to go do some inter play with iniesta on the other end of the pictch. 20 years ago, it was dribble, get to the byline and cross and hope.

The modern game also totally eradicate the free role nonsense #10. It's why players like Felix, Coutinho, Dybala didn't really live up. You're either strong enough to play in midfield or be shifted to the wing. Olmo is playing 10 but his defensive contribution is top notch so he's not really free. Right now, athletes are more appreciated. If you're athletic with a good skillset then you're good to go. If you're just skilful then you'll be another Felix. Most managers would prefer a midfield of three Gallaghers instead of a midfield of three Palmers.

In terms of management, traditional 4:4:2 is gone. The one used by Simenone is modified. Back then it was two classic wingers and two out and out strikers. Try this today and get whooped.

Defensive tactics are not appreciated at all and almost forbidden. It's now known by football fans as terrorism. Meaning that high press possession is the way forward. It's why Bayern would rather go for someone like Kompany who despite relegating Burnley tried to play "his own way" instead of outdated winners like Mourinho, Conte, Allegri, Simeone, Mancini.

Also the introduction of technology in the game like var, goal line tech and the automated offside rule system has really changed the game nah. I mean, var and automated offside rule is why you're on top of the league. Flick knows this and adapted to it with his high line.

All this didn't happen 20 years ago. I don't know if I have answered your question.

So in my mind, palmer, musiala, olmo, odegaard, raphinha, havertz, isi baraton are not free rolers

Bimmarlykay:
It's puzzling that Suarez's UCL stats aren't more impressive, especially considering he played alongside Messi, who's known for creating scoring opportunities. Even Benzema's UCL record surpasses Suarez's.

was he a great striker?

Havertz has scored more goals for arsenal in two seasons than his entire four seasons at Chelsea

Ibukzy:

scammer stop peddling Fake news. Nothing like this on google

Gucciboy:
Ac Milan are the manchester united of Italy

them and their brothers in red label float like sinking ships. They are never steady

engrelvis:
Before man city poor run Liverpool v been beaten dem so no biggie.Man city shud just allow us collect our 3 points from dem before dey "activate"

It will not come to pass

Leyqute:
If ETH had decent in-game management he wouldn’t have been that poor.

You didn't talk like this when he was in charge. It's people like you that is misleading man u fans

Lana1:
I'm looking at the table and top 5 is very possible. Maybe top 4 if we are lucky.
These guys just need to lock in

Top 5 instead of aiming for top spot. Shame on you

Trevor012:
I feel like Arsenal will expose this 3:4:3 like they did to Sporting plus we haven't mastered it yet.

Look at them. They afraid of defeat before it stares at them in the face. That jamiu is a fake fan

afrodoc2:
Casemiro made a few mistakes especially when premature sliding and stretching of leg, but if the midfield is not donut structured such mistakes can be corrected by nearby mistakes.

That donut midfield was the most significant tactical mistake that ETH made, alongside broader general issues like poor talent ID, poor team selection, poor substitution, poor coaching on the practice field.

Casemiro of almighty real madrid. How has the mighty falling in old trafford

Trevor012:
Last two games Hojlund brace, Zirkzee brace, Rashford brace. Erik bin laden was killing these players.

Bin laden kept faith in rashford but your eyes were inside your pocket

Jamiuokolaa:
We can actually get something from that game - the lads are currently buzzing with confidence and the morale is high....

Arsenal (A)

Nottingham Forest (H)

Victoria pilzen (H)

Mancity (A)

Spurs (A) in the league cup

The next three weeks would be interesting!

Five potential losses unless

Seunpapa65:
Make we talk true can garancho pass this ball if he is in amadinho position 😂😂😂

Very useless player that should be learning barber

Jamiuokolaa:
Amorim might also need a clear strategy on how to stop Saka who would most likely operate on the LHS of our defence....

Maz might need to move to that side or we hope that Shaw would cope (match fitness is a concern here)

Dalot might also need to start at LWB ..

what is the purpose of malacia and shaw in man u if they can't stay fit? And they are collecting bumper salary. This man u sef. I'm tired

Jamiuokolaa:
Amorim currently seems to be spoilt for choice in attack and it's a welcome development...

Since Mainoo is ruled out, It remains to be seen whether Bruno retains his attacking spot while Ugarte Partners Case in midfield, or the Portugese drops to CM and probably Mount takes his place behind the CF. These permutations would depend on how "conservative" the manager's game plan is..

CB is an area that might be a cause for concern...

With Martinez out, we might be forced to start someone who is still battling to be match fit.

To think we might be forced to start either Maguire or Shaw

Where is leny yorghort

CapitalCee:
Unpopular Opinion, I will start Rashford against Arsenal.

Take that opinion and use it to wipe your asshole

TrebleChamp:
Bald fraud would never admit the opposition controlled/dominated the game, in matches we were totally outplayed and deservedly lost he will tell pundits we were the better team.
That man will have a lot to answer for on the day of Judgement....

This is how you will talk after amoru is fired and a new coach is brought in to clean the mess. Ten Hag was the best thing after pussy when he arrived. Now he's gone. Amoru is next

Tottenham spoil my ticket. I give them goal goal and over 2 and they disappointed me. I'm in tears

eph12:
You see what happens when attackers press and try to force defenders to make mistakes. God bless Amad. Can never be Rashford or Ganarcho. Amad is wasting as a WB

since when that rashford enter bad thing, e no get sense again

eph12:
We were losing these kind of games before. Let's start doing well against the likes of Everton first before we start talking about the likes of LFC, Arsenal and City

How many goals would you like to concede against arsenal

dreamxhaser:
I Dey support Chelsea today. City should continue chilling in 5th place plzzzzzz

I bind you. Enemy of progress

CapitalCee:
Go and look at our passing stat, its like that of prime City, way way different from that of ETH. Despite the fact that this is a rotated lineup

Damn you! Don't ever compare this team to cityball

Jokerman:
Lol... He already has 1 million years for Ronaldo z and now 600 years for Amad's??

Make Una no kill Bin Laden o

Your ronaldo that was past his prime

Leyqute:
Imagine benching this Amad for THAT Antony. Thunder must roast ETH for that rubbish.

After saying Antony is next best thing after rivaldo. People can change

Jamiuokolaa:
I don't know if it's just me but this Martinez is kinda unpolished and brash.

I thought we had signed a "leader" in defence when he joined

That yellow was unnecessary

Smh

You talk about the butcher like that. I told him and he's coming with his knife

aieromon:
10 times out of 10, Garnacho will take that shot instead of a pass.

If I'm the coach, garnacho will be playing in league two
