Afrodoc I understand that's it's not really professional to say a club isn't of status to attract you but let's be fair a host of players won't join Spurs for the same reason and they wouldn't want to offset their wage structure.
As a person, he might have issues but under the right set up and environment, some the issues highlighted thus far can be addressed. At United, he'll line up alongside Pogba his compatriot as well as Martial and he'd settle down quickly.

Creatrixity, like dubylhover pointed out, Rabiot is miles ahead of Pereira, I understand you must have made that comparison with a lot of bias.
A lot of clubs are overlooking so many aspects of a players life and concentrating on the football side of things, this easily explains why Barcelona are keen on him apart from the fact that he'll be arriving on a free.

If you go for Ndombele or Ndidi, you'd be looking at 50-60m outlay but with Rabiot, a 10m sign on fee and wages that wouldn't exceed 40m over 5 years. However with the other options, you'd be looking at a combined transfer fees and wages of over 80m within the same period.

There's nothing like PDP project, it's this mentality that has seen successive governments come in and abandon ongoing project started by the previous administration.
When people say government is continuum, what they mean is that successive government builds on the successive of the past government and avoid the mistakes made. They're so many abandoned projects in the country because the succeeding government wants to come in and implement her own just so idiots won't say it's not their project.
Una go use una mouth impoverish una self. This is how you guys will say a politician who doesn't steal to build houses and cars is stupid upon leaving office, but if he steals, you guys will say he is a thief. Senseless youths.

Any news on Rabiot?
I hope he ends up Manchester United, we need him more.

JayKayMaybachz:
He's Barca bound, Fam

He is rumored to be Barcelona bound, not yet official. Barcelona are more interested in De Jong and seem to have won the race to sign him.
Rabiot is still available, Malcolm was Roma bound remember? But Barcelona came in at the last moment and snatched him.

We should try as much as possible to get Rabiot in the summer, a player of that quality on a free is too good to be true.
I am surprise only Barcelona is rumored to be after him or are the guys at Juventus (the masters of free transfers) sleeping?

"I don’t know if I’m at home at this level, but I’m at home at this club and that’s the thing. I spent 15 years here and that’s just me"
Spot on reply, is Solskjaer saying this stuffs off his head or is he privy to some of this questions?
His every word since he returned back has been spot on...

odizeey:
happy new year my Chelsea people.

codedguy1:
I don forget to even say happy new year! Happy new year guys.

I also could not believe I became disinterested in anything united. Chai!

Mourinho is a bascard!

LVG is a Tarado! and

Oluwayamoyes na ode!

It's now I know why Diggz used to curse the man almost every match day especially when Salah or KDB scores... The man wanted to bin Martial and Pogba and have us regretting in a few years time.
When I called him bastard of the earth, I meant it, if life is fair, that man should be coaching the Everton's, Sociedad's and Atalanta's of the world.

My own Governor promised Deep seaport, we no see...
He shouted super highway, we never see, him don almost clear our timber finish...
He made noise with Calapharm, we never see.
He signed MoU for CaliAir, we still dey wait...
Garment Factory is yet to fully take off...
Ayade is a conman...

codedguy1:
We should be playing everyday abeg.

I tell you, such is the excitement, I am not happy that we don't play until tomorrow...
I just hope the international break doesn't come anytime soon...

afrodoc2:
Yeah, sounds like a good idea.

Although it might change based on form and fitness I think this should be our front 3, especially for big games.

Yes, form and fitness, very important.

Front 3 has got to be Martial - Rashford - Sanchez...The 3 of them have the skill set to do damage from just about any position. I am quite happy that Martial is doing well coming from the right cos it looked like it was impossible with Mourinho.
A fluid front 3 is the way forward with Lingard, Mata and Lukaku as backups.

Mursz:
Chelsea - Pulisic, almost looks like a done deal though... I cant wait, that boy is fire!

He's firmly on the Dortmund bench, Jadon Sancho has taken over his spot in the team, good player tho!

postdigger:
Raumdeuter sorry it came late

We are back

What exactly is your point? with Mourinho, it was obvious Pogba had issues and he wasn't contributing his best. The last line should tell you that I still thought Pogba could offer us something going forward.

Happy new year Bundesliga folks.

chic2pimp:
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL ROSSONERIS THE WORLD OVER!.I forsee plenty of trophies this year and beyond.


FORZA MILAN!

Happy new year bro...

Happy birthday Nihilstjnr and Odunharry...

Happy new year great folks...Best of wishes to us and the club.

If depends on the set up you play in. William will do fine in an attacking set up.

Abeg, that Gomes is not ready yet. Even Pereira

And that's why I just can't entertain the idea of Willian... It's better we blood the young guns in especially now we have all come to the terms that winning the league is impossible...
We can still make something outta the season by blooding in our youngsters who have shown promise thus far.

Oasis007:


He's a Midget, and not all would turn out like Messi. I will rather play as a RWF or SS.

Lol in that formation, he'll more or less play as an AM with Pereira as the 10 and Herrera as the holding midfielder.
Fred has to up his game so we don't start searching for Matic replacement when he can't do the distance again.

Oasis007:


Playing Gomez in that Position is suicidal bro! Instead..... The Trio of Fred, Pereira and Herrera will be Fine. Gomez can play on the right instead of Martial.

Gomes is an AM/CM and not a winger, I have watched many of his videos and he seems better suited as a 10 or 8.

Oasis007:
FA Tie against Reading at OT gonna be a great Chance to see the Lads. I hope OGS will have trust and confidence to atleast field 4/5 Academy Players in the Match.

Something like;
...................... Romero....................
Dalot........ Bailly..... Rojo..............Darmian
....................... Herrera......................
.................Gomes.......Pereira..............
....Greenwood......Rashford.......Martial.....

Bench: Grant, Smalling, Valencia, Fellaini, Garner, Chong, Lukaku.

Oasis007:
The Name keeps popping up, I recalled he was on the Bench along with Gomez against Huddersfield.

Gonna check on his Clips to know more about him.

Afrodoc mentioned him and I decided to check him up, wasn't a waste of my data.

I did like to see how the lads will react if we go a goal down but definitely not against Newcastle United as Benitez has mastered the art of parking the bus.

Oasis007:
I ain't Following the Academy like you and Diadem10 are doing, but I have high hope in Gomez, Chong and Mason. I've watched some of their Clips on YouTube, and hope they get Minutes in the FA Matches.

Check out that James Garner lad, dude is more like Carrick, I was so impressed with his composure and his ability to pick a pass, the type that will completely take out 2-3 players, his brother is also with us.

afrodoc2:
We all know Lingard is a squad player, and there are benefits to having homegrown squad players.
I prefer having Lingard in the squad to having Willian.

Also OGS needs to promote the young players to the senior team let’s kniw what they have. A new manager with expectations to win titles will be reluctant to give youth a chance.

Spot on, Lingard doesn't only bring goals to the table, he is more decisive than Willian who takes extra seconds to decide what to do with the ball.
A squad player? Yes...

elampiro:
I don't know how to answer this. We already have Valencia, Young. As for William, it depends on what price he goes for and whether he is willing to move. Although someone like him might stifle the growth of Lingard because I see some similarity in their game.

Please just stop with this your Willian thingy, dude is very unproductive, at least Lingard pops up with a fair amount of goals, what exactly does Willian bring to the table?
It's not like we are still coached by Mourinho where we need defensive minded wingers or AMF we need attackers who can press from the front and do maximum damage up top, not those who will track back, recover the ball and lose it in midfield.
Instead of angling for OGS to promote Greenwood, Chong and Gomes, you are hoping we get Willian.
Even if it's for free, hell naw...
Just look at the bolded, a wasteman like Willian shouldn't even have that option when Huddersfield reaches out to him.

I read the first page and shook my head, only the Op and a one or two guys made sense, the rest were just writing absolutely trash.
He does not have leadership qualities? What leadership qualities does Atiku or Buhari have? Thus is the same Sowore that led students to stand up against the military, for people to rally behind you to stand up to the then military junta it means they believe in your leadership.

He doesn't stand a chance and bla bla blab... Does Buhari stand a chance? Does Atiku stand a chance? If your reply is yes, know that they only stand a chance because you give them a chance, why not give Sowore or the other enterprising aspirants a chance too?

He wants to divide votes? Are you for real? Even people doubted Jesus so no surprises here.

Others are still bitter about the role Sahara reporters played in ousting GEJ, whether you admit it or not, the administration of GEJ was deeply immersed in corruption so its high time some of you get over the loss and move ahead.

I really feel bad reading from supposed youths, Buhari came and brought with him Saraki, Dino, Amaechi and co and at the end, nothing has changed, now we want them out but same idiotic youths are rallying behind Atiku that has in his camp, same Saraki, Dino, Tambuwal, Fayose etc are we cursed or something? I mean, is it so difficult to see that it's the same set of politicians that have impoverished us that are realigning again?

I am so ashamed of some of us, we are not ready to see the country that we so crave for...

PietroRick:
Defence is bad, so the solution is to subject it to pressure at the slightest opportunity, then come out crying in press conference that the entire team isn't good enough when they inevitably crack under the pressure he loves to invite for no reason.
Walahi, na thunder go fire mourinho and his wayward logic

Hehehe Mourinho issa fool... Keep the abuses coming.

Let no man tell you otherwise, we are back in business...

Lana1:
Guy i'm a bonafide member of Martial FC.

Asides his assist today he didn't do much. He rarely even takes on defenders anymore

Post Mourinho, it'll take time for the lads to get their swagger back.

Lana1, abeg leave Martial alone, see him drifting all over to cause havoc.
