I guess we watched a different game because VDB was class...It's not his fault that most those around him are brainless...

Rangnick, way too much changes...

Matic is drunk...

olabode89:
Greenwood need slap once once, he could have played Amad on goal, baba should be more aware of things around him

You're right...

Leyqute:
Don’t even know what AWB was trying to achieve by moving into that space.

His position is at RB FGS

I just tire for the guy,he showed up but acted like he wasn't ready for the pass...All this yeye players wey dey avoid pass in tight spaces...

How is it a VDB assist? AWB was asleep there...

CrystalTiger:
Na training them go dey use ice cold for now since him head no wn correct

He is injured, leave my boy alone...

Mason Greenwood...Top talent...

afrodoc2:
You guys should chill o. Dalot is still naive defensively. It only takes someone like Adama Traore or Saint Maximin catching him on a bad day for complaints to start.

We need to see AWB and Shaw play under this new system before we start crowning their replacements as the 2nd coming of Cafu.

AWB is limited on the ball, there's nothing I am expecting from him. He'll bomb forward more but can he deliver those quality crosses into the box? We can't play two sitting DMs and still expect our 2 and 3 to sit back back...

I clearly limited my comment to Dalot vs AWB and when it came to other right backs, I said with the right coaching he can be at their level meaning that I acknowledge he is not the finished article especially defensively...

Shaw stands a chance but his reluctance to cross when he gets in good position might be his undoing...

olabode89:
Mejbri is with the Tunisian national team at the Arab cup

Okay...I'd have loved to see him come in today.

It will be interesting to see how we line up today. I hope Amad starts or at least comes in at some point...

Where is Mjebri?

obainojazz:
How did we not know Dalot is that good or was AWB preferred due to his price tag?

Some of us knew he was good enough to start ahead of AWB and hopefully with the right coaching he'll get to the level of the Cancelo's, TAA's and Robertson's of the world...

BikeMan:
Patrickmuf, see how your brothers kept mute for that sweet Messi goal.

I no want discuss Messi vs Ronaldo for here again.

We all have our preferences but as Ronaldo dey my team now, I go excuse myself from the debate out of respect but it doesn't mean I am not a Messi fan...

I hope Ronaldo fans can do away with the argument too...

Drinking and driving...

Davido should know better, a lot of youths kids
look up to him.

Oasis007:


Arsenal Thread and stillborn sha. How many times dem go reborn this yeye Thread. Una be Ogbanje (Abiku) Fans?!

Hehehe

This man, you dey craze walahi!

afrodoc2:
I won’t mind Kalvin Phillips in this team with this style. Or Bissouma.
Better yet Phillips AND Bissouma.

Bissouma and Phillips/Rice will be a huge upgrade. One of the them sef is enough.

afrodoc2:
Yeah I remember that move. By that time he was fatigued cos that was a tired swing of the leg. Quite unfortunate cos most times when Elanga is released like that you don’t catch him.

We need to rest Ronaldo for the UCL game. Let’s play Greenwood, Elanga, Lingard, Amad, VDB. The Ronaldo I saw yesterday is very close to a muscle injury.

Ronaldo will not want to be rested but for his won good, I hope the coaches protect him even if it doesn't sit well with him. He should be playing on game every week and not 2-3 especially this period where the fixture list is crazy...

Rashford, Martial, Greenwood, Elanga, Lingard, VDB and Mjebri (I hope he isn't injured) should be drafted in to cover for the regulars...

Any update on Cavani and Pogba?

Karleb:
Baba was everywhere.

He was seriously running after a Palace player towards the end of the match at the right flank.

Na Bruno spoil our ball yesterday.

Ronaldo did a lot of running but his finishing and touches were sometimes off.

In the dying minutes of the game, there's a one time pass he tried to release Elanga but he didn't connect well with the ball. The industry was there but surprisingly, his finishing was off...

I am willing to give all the players a chance with Rangnick before making up my mind on which of them is not Manchester United quality...

Maguire didn't look as bad as he looked in Ole's time...

VDB was good when he came on.

I want to see a midfield of Fred, VDB and Bruno...

McTom is just too limited though you can't argue that he gives his all.

eph12:
I'm looking at this stat and I'm finding it very difficult to accept the huge difference in touches between Fred and Tom. There must be a glitch in the software.

McTom hides behind the opposition, it's common knowledge...

Fred sorry, Eph12 with the goal...

VDB needs to come on.

ChristineC:
this will be exposed long term. we need proper pace in there.

The thing is that against teams with abundance of pace upfront we can draw back but not against all the teams we come up against. The position Maguire and Lindelof are taking up is helping us narrow the pitch.

See the position of our backline when they want to play a goal kick...

Ole no just sabi. See Maguire and Lindelof playing a high line.

Oasis007:
Rest.

He tried and doing fine with it. He misplaced just one so far.

Do you understand the post you quoted? Or you just think everything is agenda driven?

slimghost:
I am happy with this first half. We have total control of the game and the goals will come.
Dalot will definitely keep AWB out of this team.

I don't see how AWB will function properly in a team that plays attacking football...

Fred should stop going long, he just does not have the range...

metodman:
Yea with few players needing to really step up. If Rashford and Bruno were in form, we would definitely have scored

Hopefully the goals come soon enough.

We are playing well, really well...Good movements here and there, all we need is a goal.

Illimitable:
Predict your line up.

It's already out now...

I am interested in seeing how high up the pitch Telles and Dalot play...Fred and McTom should just hold the base and allow us attack with numbers...

Palace have some very tricky players especially on their bench, I'm talking about Eze and Olise although they're just returning to long injury layoffs.

Make this Messi vs Ronaldo argument die down, we have a game upcoming...
