Btw, I went on and on about how injuries has ruined things for us this season, but na soso Ten Hag out, Ten Hag out.

Now that we finally have players back, we're finally winning games and actually deserving the victories.

Good to see.

Same here. I don tire to dey talk I just leave am.

Im praying Martinez’s injury lay-off isn’t lengthy. We can’t go back to Magwaya and Lindelof abeg

At least Shaw is not injured. He can slot in at LCB while Dalot or Malacia plays LB.

Olorun o ni je a ri ogun Magwaya

eph12:

One would think ETH has not bought/loaned over 10 players. Because we are focusing on Antony, they think we have forgotten

you are wicked!

ChristoBam:

At this point na to dey repost old stuff. No fit dey repeat the same thing 100 times.

Yeah there was no option. I remember now

AdisaOwala:


Gakpo, who had far better stats than pocolee, was available for less than half of what we paid yet ETH felt otherwise

Gakpo?😂
Get serious please
And for the unpteenth time, Antony was less than 40m at the time of initial enquiries
The fact that y’all paid 82m is because completing transfers is rocket science for the useless club we all support🤝

eph12:

You’ve still not provided any alternative names sha
I maintain that Antony was a decent option at the time and his deal should have completed earlier instead of chasing FDJ the entire summer

Yes,Gakpo - he was the smarter and more logical option.

PSV were literally hawking Gakpo at a cut price dey find buyer- a player who was head and shoulders above Anthony but the useless ETH had some silly ideas in his bald, empty head.

Gakpo might not have exactly set the EPL on fire but at least nobody is talking about him, he was a proven player at PSV who cost Liverpool literally next to nothing.

Anthony's purchase on the other hand, is a testament to ETH's cluelessness and wastefulness!

And PSV weren't literally hawking him

You want me to provide alternative? As someone that scouts players or what? Or you're looking for established players in top clubs we watch?

olabode89:
Dem just dey dribble Bruno and Case anyhow.

Both of them have mastered the art of unnecessarily diving into challenges. And people wonder how our midfield is empty during opposition transition

Players that do that always are actual lazy, because standing up to players and tracking them is actually harder. so they go with just sliding in.

Jodera:

Gakpo is PSV

PSV jare

Jodera:

And PSV weren't literally hawking him

He was hawked like Gala all over Europe at a cut price

Psv Chief:

When you talk about Cody Gakpo and the price tag, how many clubs are able to buy a player of that calibre? You are talking about maybe 10 or 12 clubs in Europe.

He wasn't. He fits into the profile of players we already had in abundance. Sancho, Rashford, Garnacho. All better playing from the left. Garnacho looks good so far on the right but still not totally convinced cuz his shot power on the left is weak. But he's doing a job.

Makes me remember what Ole said about Sancho totally preferring to play from the left. Made things complicated.

It's just unfortunate Antony ended up a bum. Most times you can't predict these things.

If we had the funds, we'd have gone for Caicedo. Imagine the tears now. But man looked like a sure banger in any team. Now he looks like someone playing with construction boots.

It can't be the Gakpo that plays for Liverpool you are talking about like this
Liverpool have even been in a far better position than united in past years and you think Gakpo, a clearly average player will do anything worthwhile at united?
It's easy to criticise the Antony transfer because it has not worked out but you no fit tell me say you no get hopes when we sign am

Jodera:

Apart from that Gakpo will not do well on the right side.

So was it the unproductive Anthony with very poor stats that was gonna do anything tangible?

And to think ETH blew a substantial part of our funds on him...

Our coach should be shot dead abeg

You only know this because it's been over a year bro
Maybe if Tony was 35m too he'd be irrelevant like Gakpo currently is

Exactly - ETH's approval of that Transfer at that price is the unforgivable sin here

Players wey good die sef dey flop if they transfer go another club

Approval?
I don't think ETH has anything to do with transfers beyond recommending names
No be ETH dey negotiate all the terrible deals we've been doing since 2013

He insisted on buying a rubbish player for a ridiculous amount, in the process wasted a significant chunk of our financial layout in the TW...

ETH cannot manage resources - both financial and human : he is clueless!

When defending ETH people should not mention that Antony deal.

Any sane manager who coached Antony for 2 years would have strangled Murtough when informed about the final fee we were negotiating.
You cannot coach Antony for 2 years and not think that fee was money laundering. That money would have been better spent on Instagram baddies.

P.S Murtough and his band of merry idi.ots are not innocent either.

Leyqute:

Another Sancho wahala

And for those who defended the Glazers with money spent, i hope the Chelshit situation has shown how money spent means nothing if it is spent like a drunk baby.

Why do you keep going on and on about stats. You mentioned it like 3 times, I mentioned Hojlund and you skipped past that.

Hojlund is literally a striker and scored only 7 last season. Antony looked like an Orthodox winger so we kinda excused his lack of stats. It was mostly about making the next step.

It's all about hindsight. Antony is a bum now, so kill everyone involved in the deal? lmao.

It's even funny, you wanted to kill the manager for poor results all these months. Didn't take too long to find another reason to kill the manager after recent good results.

afrodoc2:

They went into transfers with zero plan. You're supposed to be super successful after spending all that money.

Imagine spending 100m on a player just because Arsenal wanted him; talking about Mudryk. I think Caicedo falls into this category as well. Another 100m.

True.

I'd like to see Amad Diallo given more opportunities to showcase himself.
I had high hopes for Pellestri but the dude seems overawed by Man Utd. Maybe his loan move and more playing time would help him overcome that.

Do you know what it is to spend 1b dollars and still look shyte? Not over 5 to 10 yrs o. 1b in 1 year.

Even Emzor.

You have an unproven Jackson as striker, and Emzor in midfield, then you go for Conceedo in the same midfield. Then you add Lavia in the same midfield. While you are doing all these you buy Lesley Ugochukwu in the same midfield. Meanwhile you are spending more money to buy rated youngsters like Santos and Casadei. In the same midfield. Then you have local hero and Chelshit legend Conor Gragra playing in the same midfield.
All the while you have Jackson as your first-choice striker.

Boehly is Glazers on steroids.
It gladdens my heart.

Splashing a substantial part of our budget on an "Orthodox winger" with poor output ?The sense is still not sensing

The facts are there for all to see - Anthony has always been an unproductive player even since his days at Ajax yet our ikorodu Pep felt he was the solution to our problems on the wing and went ahead to approve 100m for "dance steps"

ETH is worse than the Biblical prodigal son

Oga - the crux of the matter here na ETH's cluelessness in the TF market - we weren't on about his hopeless tactics/poor game management and general uselessness as our manager
