But what else does Townsend have

Now compare him to the players that converge good quality technical ability to Blistering pace and you see the real deal.

Gareth Bale
Mbappe
Dembele
Sana
Raheem
Neymar

Take away the pace and they become just very good players not some of the most expensive players in history of football.

I expected more depth from you to be honest.

TheGoodJoe:

If Blistering pace is the key to success, Andros Townsend would have been the next Maradona.

Finito.

DrKlever:
k Well, that's your opinion.. watch how KC would stroll back into the starting 11 in Okazaki's absence. It's obviously the formation that favoured Diabate, and not that he's better.. Passes, reading of the game, goal instict, and football intelligence KC beats him completely. They ain't even mates!

Mujtahida:
But the goodjoe I hope you know that with the current trend and the way football is going players who do not have 'blistering pace' would be one out of a thousand ooo cos the overwhelming majority would have blistering pace. One time Fabregas complained that only athletes can survive today's football. Hope you don read that book.

Akwa fall my hand losing 2-1 at home to hawks of Gambia, seems the Hawks are a good side, unbeaten in 6 straight matches now. today's win makes it their first away win in 4 matches the other 3 have been score draws. unless a miracle happens in the second leg Akwa maybe just out of the Continental football. even a 0-1 away win in Gambia won't be enough, they will need a scoreline like 2-0 or 2-1 to push the game into extra time.

Plateau United, well they are showing why they are truly the champions of the NPFL, their league win wasn't a fluke 3-0 winners against Eding who are also champions of the Cameroonian league is not a small feat but is their league that strong, is it stronger than the NPFL? Anyways we might need to wait for the 2nd leg to see if they would move into the next round, lest we see a performance like Rangers last season (was it Rangers?) who wn 3-0 at home only go away and lose 4-0 to crash out. let's just wait and see.

Mfm currently holding Real Bamako 1-1 and guess what they scored in tge 15th minute only to concede 2 minutes later game is still on in the first half

realpoacher:
Bla Bla.. Bla

You have been a closet Hater all along, you just didn't have the balls to come out straight.

I guess you now have an alibi to do just that.... Newsflash, bring it on and I assure you that you will meet fire for fire.

If you have made it a decision to see no good in him,.. Then I too have made a decision to see no bad in him

C'est fini

[b]Firstly, better is not the question at all.[/b]There is one attribute that he has over KC and that is blistering pace. It means Diabate can keep up with Vardy and complement him.Also I did not hype Diabate he has a HUGE ADVANTAGE, there is zero expectation on him everything he does is surprising. Because he came from nowhere. As a result he is getting a lot of media attention and accolades. However, KC came with a big transfer cost and GREAT EXPECTATION which he simply has not lived up too. That's the plain reality. Who is better is simply not the question. The more pertinent question is who best fits the needs of Leicester city Who is better for the current needs of Leicester city. KC has to find a way to be bullish and create value for himself. Football is never fair you must take your opportunities and use them.

Wake up, update and download the game has moved on, it seems you haven't moved on with it. You still deh DOS when we are on Windows 10.

What seperates Manchester City Fc from everyone in the EPL, is one word, BLISTERING PACE,

Which club has recorded the highest number of sprints in the EPL

Which club records the highest average speeds

Why did clubs play stupid ridiculously crazy money for Mbappe and Dembele one word Crazy Blistering Pace

Hopefully you have upgraded, updated and downloaded, so your eye suppose don open now.

Mujtahida:
Baba I hail once more. How many matches has he played in the EPL and you going ohhhhhh on this Diabetes (pun intended) guy? So much for unemotive, non biased view.

TheGoodJoe:

So you now agree it is not all about pace.

That is better.

Mujtahida:
I have fought a good fight here for our players including Nacho. I have gone head to head with forgive.ness and kome.kn who said the 94 set are better than this current set. I have had exchanges with komekn who will not give Iheanacho or Osimhen even a little benefit of doubt. Several times I have argued with Doc Mickael2. I love the SE. Growing up I despised anyone who didn't like football but I've grown past that now. All I'm saying is let the pro and anti Nacho people challenge each other, counter each other, argue and state their opinions but all in a spirit of respect. I don't think that is too much to ask.



And one more thing: many people use negativity to protect themselves and manage their expectations. It riles me but I owe them respect regardless. I too have disrespected others here but respect is and should be how we interact here. Cheers

TheSuperNerd:
I said on thay day thay it was the worst match I have seen a team in GWG play live in the past half decade.... I did make this comment. And I refused watching the replay. It was that bad for me. Once was enough.

But again, I cannot forget how those guys wobbled and fumbled to get there... they did make history no matter what.

And yeah... calling a spade a spade... thank you... now let's do this and move on from this...


Spade no.1: The team was poor in overall team quality.

Spade no.2: The team did show good and admirable character despite how poor they were quality wise.

Spade no.3: Okpotu was our biggest culprit in front of goal and really flunked when he got a lot of chances to bury.

Spade no.4: Okpotu is no main super Eagles material but he is a central part of this CHAN team's history despite all the flaws in the team. He scored two goals and even got the assist for the goal that sent us to the final.

Spade no.5: Both Ezenwa and Ajioboye had their moments of brilliance in goal.

Spade no.6: Salisu Yusuf may be tactically deficient but he led that team low on quality to the final. Something Keshi could not even do. That says a little something.

Spade no.7: Finally I will stop here... the team in spite of all the odds and all the obvious flaws noticed still battled their way through and defeated teams even better than they were before getting blown away by a superior and more cohesive Moroccan team. The team attained Nigeria's best finish at the CHAN and it is history. This is an upgrade on the bronze Keshi's team won in 2014. Keshi's team had the better quality than Salisu's team... but Salisu's team has the history and record.

Finito.

minfelix:
abeg which 1 una want for dis 2 options oo
1. playing good football and loosing out in the second round
2. playing pure nonesense and reaching final of the world cup only to be thrashed 4-0 by Russia

kellycute:
why he come lost for field Na? Not even one single highlight of his game at all. All those diabate blistering pace Na initial gra gra. The moment nacho released that heavenly pass to vardy, Komekn be like..

MetalJigsaw:
Of course you're right about your points bro. The team has some good players no doubt. A little above average to be precise. But I was only assessing them as a team on a realistic note.

They made the final, great. But we all know how they for their- Staggering through.

Mujtahida:
Goodjoe let me know your opinion on this.

Recently I read that the Dutch team that lost in the 1974 finals to Germany is remembered more today for their beautiful brand of total football than the Germans who defeated them.

And remember also that the Brazilian squad to Spain 82 WC is described universally as the most complete football squad ever(arguably the greatest collection of individual talents ever to grace a tournament pitch-from a website.) and people still remember their swashbuckling, frenzied, free and pacy beautiful football. In fact Zico described their loss to Italy in the quarter finals as the day football died.

So back to the poser. Let me know what you think.

tbaba1234:
Shehu is not playing well in Turkey. He has been poor.

Elderson started on the bench in belgium division 2.

TheGoodJoe:
If pace was the key to success, Iniesta would be worshipping Theo Walcott.

komekn:
If you go back in time I made it intrinsically clear that KC new competition was not Vardy but Diabate. I was called a HATER bad belle and biased as well as unpatriotic.

My comments are not based on my preference but from my understanding of the club ethos and after watching Diabate play, I knew then KC had a battle on his hands.

Meanwhile some were celebrating that Okazaki was injured and road was free for KC.

When you are a fan you are emotive not objective. You do not look at things holistically and consider team dynamics and club ethos.
