We're not in the Title race ?, we're running our race .

There's a club based in North London. I can't see their badge anywhere in all this circles.

Why?

Trust me, I knew who I was chatting with but his one-dimensional, vapid, lacking substance and uneducated opinions get tiring after a while. Imagine someone who thought saying no Foden to blame meant England didn't win because he didn't play. LOL. How do you even respond to that type of slow person?

Zidane and Modric will be wondering how they were impactful with their 5 goals in some seasons. A head full of hot air for a reason.

I think you are downplaying Raphinha’s effort in Barca’s season. I still remember somewhere in almost middle of the season when Flick confirmed Yamal is seriously working on his shooting as his style was limited to just dribbling.

Raphinha plays a position that limits his shooting but cleverly found a way to make marauding runs and take advantage of his precise shooting ability. Raphinha’s excellent marauding stayed consistent throughout the season and the results were self evident.

That is why I always like when coaches go to clubs where they can spend money

Everyone can always cook with their mouth filled with if if if

If I had money etc how many coaches have been handed huge amount and flopped.
When pochetinno was with Spurs we always heard that if this and that

The pressure at top clubs is much and credit to coaches who can manage them and succeed

When you join a top club, money will SURELY be spent and you must deliver or get axed. The pressure at a top club is second to none especially one whose aspirations is to win the UCL not just local leagues and secondary trophies like Europa, Fa cup etc. I remember when people said Unai was so underrated and that he'll do well in a club where he can spend some money.

Unai won Europa with Sevilla multiple times and also with Villarreal. He got the top job at PSG and delivered arguably the biggest bottle job in UCL history. He then joined Arsenal, another top club, couldn't make top 4, got to the Europa league final (his favourite competition) he won it for fun at other small clubs but lost woefully to Chelsea in the final.

He's now at where he belongs at Villa and he's doing well again. Surprising? No. Na water pass garri. Take him to Citeh, Bayern, Barca or Madrid and it's the same story again. Some coaches are build for the highest level possible, some are better with small clubs.

Unai is a good coach though.

Seun is ruining the fun of this forum. You can’t post any message that is less than 40 characters now. But sometimes, all you need to reply to a message is just “ok,” “good,” or a laughing emoji, but that’s no longer allowed.

Oyibo man says: Too many cooks spoil the broth.

Or maybe "Maignan to Chelsea confirmed"

So person no fit write that kind 4 syllabus sentence in peace again..

Nah. I'm even surprised you fell for it. The conversation was about Palmer and his lack of winning mentality as CFC's best player vs someone like Lamine who took it upon himself to decide critical games for Barca like KdB, Zidane, Salah etc did for their respective teams at similar moments. KdB didn't need to be top scorer for City to decide that Newcastle game in 23-24, where City were down 1-2 at St. James' park and needed to win to mount pressure on AFC. He came on, equalized from nothing, and then assisted Oscar Bobb to win the game.

That dumb illogical guy was trying to define Lamine's impact by his number of goals. I was trying to show reasonable people why that just makes zero sense.

MorataFC:
Abeg leave dat guy. If I'm not mistaken, this will be the first time in more than two decades that Man U, Tottenham, and Chelsea will be out of the top 4 (though Chelsea made it the last day). Arsenal lost the battle mid-season, Tottenham and Man U almost got relegated, every big team lost form except Liverpool and the guy said the Man City that made top 3 was dipped in form. How many fans does Man City have, anyway? In fifty years, Man City can't pull the crowds of fans like Man's U, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea. It's like a billionaire buying a club in La Liga, let's say Levante or Real Sociedad, and they begin to win trophies every season. The seasons they go trophyless, you wouldn't say La Liga lost viewership because of Levante's dip. Even with Man U's dipped form, lingering between 15th and 16th position, they still command more viewership than Man City.

The truth is, Man City has the money, and they can buy trophies, but they can't buy fans. That's just a simple truth.

If they keep winning for decades, theyll gradually win over the newer generation. The fandom will eventually come.

Well, admittedly, I didn’t follow the argument from the beginning.

But I also need to point out that Palmer has been cursed with mediocre managers and players. Yamal is better but Palmer holds his own in that creative department.

Ask the people who live in Manchester which team has more fans currently between United and City (in Manchester not worldover). If they're honest, the result will shock people who think going to Cotonou is going abroad.

It wasn't even a Palmer vs Lamine discussion in terms of talent. It was in terms of winning mentality. I was implying Palmer can and should be willing his team to win even without being the top scorer and I used the Conference league final to give an example of a moment where he did it.

Unfortunately for you and your agenda, Manchester is still red. Even though a chunk of the new generation (under 15 year olds) are City fans, it will still take some time and continuous winning for the City to turn blue.

Shave your agenda for now.

There are currently more City fans in Manchester than United. Fact. Of course, United is still the bigger franchise with a larger fan base worldwide.

PSG's position will tell you why success get plenty friends. See Arsenal position nah lol.

But United's position is a banger. That club get commercial prowess ooo. Imagine they find great success in this generation AI then they could overtake Barca and Madrid easily.

Despite their failures, why are they so marketable and up there. Any idea?

Away kit out, to be worn at the Club World Cup.

People lost interest in the EPL last season because Manchester City dipped in form.

We are all that matters.

One player can't do it all the time. What difference would yamal do if he was playing with average players ?

Can Barcelona win trophies without loads of goals from lewandowski and Raphinha? No

You still don't get it,do you English professor?

airmark:






This guy.

Android17 seems to know only grammar.

Lewandowski this season 39 goals 3 assists

Raphinha this season 33 goals 18 assists

Now yamal wouldn't have done nothing without lewandowski and Raphinha pumping goals to win games.

This is what Palmer lacks currently.

Seeing what Jackson, madueke and co does to us Chelsea fans during matchdays makes me to be more annoyed that Barca fans underrate Raphinha and lewandowski.

Barca fans are ingrates.

So you wanna tell us yamal singlehandedly won all Barca games without Raphinha and lewandowski

Or you wanna tell us yamal had this winning mentality throughout 38 league games whilest he ended up scoring only 9 goals.

Jokes on you for thinking one player can do it all alone throughout an entire season like he's a robot or Machine and not human anymore.

How do you rate these players for a left wing position

Barcola
Leao
Nico Williams
Mitoma
Gakpo

I am compiling all the players Bayern have been linked to

I get that we didn't find enough success with the bundseliga players but they're doing well in the EPL.

Top of my head

Vanderven, LaCroix, Son, Kamada, Konate, Szobo, Chris Richard. All these are from three teams not coached by Pep and they're successful depending on how you define success.

I think Wirzt will do well but it'll not be 150m worthy. I doubt he'll flop because he's very good. My agenda is for him to fail sha I won't hide

For a min, I thought you were one of us


Only to read your last statement ..


Anyways you agenda is dead on arrival..

drisham:
30% success rate

Compared to the 70% flop rate

no

Gravenberch looked floppy under klopp but picked yo under slot ..


What does that tell you .. wirtz is going to be performing wonders under slot ...


You wait for it 🤭🤭🤭
