Did I just read he has 6months left on his contract and was sold for 20M

Crazy market, crazy...

NinjaMetahuman:
even 2-0 up

scummies still lamenting.


scummies must scum

We are not Chelsea, we don't just just play to win, there's a standard we expect and anything short of it is not good enough.

Scrappy first half but I'll take a 2 goal lead going into the second half...
I just hope we get to see the youngsters on in the second half.
Fellaini should come in for McTominay to bring in some stability and maturity in that midfield, Chong should replace Mata around the hour mark and Garner for Fred in the last 15mins...

It means without our first choice midfield, we don't have any midfielder on the bench that'll come in without a consequent drop in quality...

Lukaku with a fine finish and Sanchez, what a pass...Nice one.

Mourinho saw Fred and his aimless running and thought to himself, my kind of player.

Rabiot agrees 5 year deal with Barcelona...10m sign on fee...

A steal...

Pereira is very good at beating his man, he just needs to release the ball quicker.

DIAZ DEAL CLOSE

Brahim Diaz is on the brink of completing his move from Manchester City to Real Madrid, for a fee that could rise as high as £22m.

Sky Sports News understand Real will pay an initial £15.5m, with add-ons that could be worth a further £6.5m. The Spanish winger is in the final 6 months of his contract and rejected the offer of a new deal to stay in Manchester.

Sources at Man City have told us that while they would have liked the Academy graduate to stay, they understand why he has made the decision to return to his homeland to play for one of the biggest clubs there.

In addition to the initial £15.5m fee, Man City will also benefit from any future transfer, with an intriguing clause inserted into the deal that seems to be designed to scupper their rivals across town. If Diaz leaves Real, Man City will get 15 per cent profit on any sale - unless he is sold to a "club in Manchester" when the percentage of the profit will rise to 40 per cent.

This Manchester City are mad.

We are open in midfield...What's the role of Mc Tominay in this game?

Our counter is dangerous sha.

The goal should settle the nerves.

Mata...

According to Sky sport , psv have accepted a 36million offer from Chelsea for hirving lozano...


People are raving about how he is the best Mexican player at the moment but I won't lie, I don't know much about him aside the YouTube videos I watched recently and the 2018 world cup

Do u guys think he will be an upgrade on Willian and Pedro?

Yes, he is an upgrade on Willian and Pedro, he comes with goals from the wings, I reckon Sarri is looking for the next Mertens, a winger with an eye for goal playing as CF

neezar:
Rojo and Smalling injured according to OGS

Smalling I can understand but Rojo has to go...

afrodoc2:
Rojo is injured as usual.
I would like to see more of Chong and Perreira in this game.
I don’t know why Greenwood has not made any of the recent squads.
Garner’s rise this season has been exponential but I am not sure he is physically ready.

Rojo and Jones have to go, how do you get injured all the time sitting on the bench or maybe they're just after their weekly wages, a pay as you play contract should be drafted for them if they must stay...
I hope we end the match as a contest in the first half so that OGS won't think twice about bringing in the youngsters.

United squad vs Reading:

Romero, Grant

Dalot, Young, Jones, Lindelof, Darmian

Garner, McTominay, Pereira, Fellaini, Fred, Mata

Rashford, Lukaku, Martial, Sanchez, Chong

#MUFC

Afrodoc, I hope we get to see Garner and Chong at some point. A blistering start to the match and they might have their chance today.
I don't know why Greenwood and Gomes are not in the squad and we are really slim at the moment when you look at our CB options? Where's Rojo? He's been missing one too many games.

SIRcumalot:
Godin is on his way to inter.

Source?

The front page is littered with absolute gibberish from brain dead Nigerians...
A member defects from the APC to the PDP, his seat was not declared vacant but when others decamped from the PDP to the APC, you declare their seats vacant...It isn't fair any way you look at it.
This guy's have federal power but you want to oppress them with State power, let's see how it plays out.

It's only normal to start beefing the club that put 5 past you...

Gimenez is good but he isn't the fastest CB out there.
I'm all for Koulibaly and the good news is that he is eligible to play in the UCL thanks to the fact that that ridiculous rule has been changed.

I hope the club signs a CB this January cos I will be very worried seeing Jones against that PSG front 3. If Koulibaly isn't possible, I'd say offer Atletico 5m for Godin, I'm sure he has 2-3 solid years at the top left in him.

VVD was culpable for many of the leaks yesterday only that he had Allison to bail him out, That Aguero move which Allison saved

VVD obviously had no awareness of whats going on around him and didnt know Aguero was sneaking behind, So when Sterling passed, he thought it was an errant ball going out

Putting your toe through every ball like Ikemefuna Ozuah or Rabiu Afolabi is not what defending is about

No be the same VVD dey defence when Liverpool dey concede 7 goals for CL group stage? Abi those refugees from Crveda Zvezna no take him eye rub floor?

Which of the all time greats didn't concede?
VVD covers a lot for Robertson who has the license to attack, he was caught in between rushing to cover Sterling or staying with his man at a point where they were chasing the game.

raumdeuter:
Only colossus not Galatians? Where was his organizing ability that was responsible for clean sheets like we've been hearing before. Rather it was Allison that was turned into a shooting target

Lovren like Jones is renowned for moments of madness, you can't help them. Against smaller teams, their inadequacies can be masked but against quality players, they're easily exposed.

Just tell Lewandowski not to bother going up against VVD cos he will be pretty much eaten, he and the rest of your attackers should target Lovren...

Even the commentators acknowledged that Aguero had to run from VVD to Lovren's side and he found joy over there.
Yesterday, VVD was a colossus.

Make una stop this banter abi na beef.

Joromi12:
Sowore the trouble maker. He is not civil

How is he not civil? Calling a corrupt politician corrupt is not uncivil...
Berating our generals is not uncivil...
Saying the government are not sympathetic to the plight of Nigerians is not uncivil...
If you are looking for uncivil leaders, try Trump...

kolafolabi:
If Sowore is eventually included in the debate, well, I don't see Atiku and Buhari coming to the debate.

Hehehe he'll floor them 100%

Lana1:
This is why a team shouldn't revolve around one player. When one of the star men is having an off day, others should be able to step up.

Na why i dey pray make person help me give Hazard FC one small 3 weeks make he use am hold body this new year

E go too make sense.

larride:
The problem is that Jorginho is not creative enough.

That's why Fabregas has to start.

elampiro:
Linderlof actually won 1 tackle. Who composed this kind of stat.

He did very well though, but again he was moved to RCB after a very poor outing in LCB last weekend.

Even Jones that they said did not play well, also won 1 tackle.
Linderlof 0 interception. Jones 2 interceptions won. I actually saw those two times he intercepted after Shaw had been displaced. But I don't know if people do not watch ball as I do. Jones still had the highest pass accuracy in the game apart from Lingard who had 100%

Lindelof is the best ball playing centre back, that is not disputable. But at the moment he is now where near our best centre back if everyone is playing at their best with fitness.

Lindelof was up against Rondon yesterday in most occasions and he did fine.
The bolded holds no water...

Arsenal and Chelsea have some tough fixtures coming up, in the next 2 weeks, they meet at the Emirates... We need to capitalize on their every slip.

You have evidence and instead of making it public, you are shouting everywhere like a mad cow. Now, even if it is true, doesn't it give the accuse the chance to cover his tracks?
Atiku is a joke...

Away from trolling and banter, why can't Sarri try Kante as DM, Jorginho as CM (Like Xavi) and Fabregas as the AM?
Kovacic isn't too daring and Barkley's first instinct is to shoot after beating his man even if it's not the best alternative.
