Melvyn11:

No offense but common sense is far From you. You are using your hand to destroy your own damn point. You basically just showed us that fernandinho started for his ability as a midfielder in that game and pep wanted to dominate the midfield. He was basically used as the DM in that match not as a centre back. Show us his heat map and that of Laporte let's see.

nihilistjnr:


Stones is not even brilliant at playing the ball.

I don't know if you really watched Stones play because even the passing no follow.

Imagine spending 50m on a brilliant ball player but preferring to play a 33 year old 5'8 cm in defence ahead of your guy

airmark:


Somebody also said Stones won epl trophies, so he was great.

nihilistjnr:


See Laporte's Heatmap

See Otamendi

See Fernandinho


Oya tell us who played centreback, who played midfield, and who played left back.

The problem with you is that you haven't yet realised that you are a rank idiot. Dont worry, I'm here to help you discover your calling

Melvyn11:

Your ranting won't save you.Now tell us why Fernandinho was the furthest player up the pitch and show us another match where stones was benched for fernandinho unless you want to to tell us one game out the 50 Man City played last season is an indication of what will happen this season.

nihilistjnr:


I blame raumdeuter for spawning all these little toads of his with double his ability to make outlandish statements, but half his ability to spin the defensive amala when cornered.

John Stones that was always the first CB to be benched by Pep during last season.This was what Pep said when Stones didnt even make the Match 18 for Manchester Derby.

I blame Dayo for this nonsense 100%

airmark:


Apari, I thought you said it was Barcelona begging Neymar. You haven't reacted to updates recently? If you need ticket money to join the entourage in Spain to beg Barca, forward your account number to his agent.

Melvyn11:

Clown nobody is talking about John stones at Man City. You are shifting and turning like amoeba. You basically said If stones was good he wouldn't be benched fernandinho a Dm and brought one match out of 50 in which Man City played last season. So why didn't pep replicate it or use it again if it was not an experiment. It was basically a one off which shuts down any point you are trying to raise . Like I said you are a not a clown you own the circus.

Emaprince:
Nonsense
He proved us right in his woeful first season..until he started breaking banks.

When I tipped him to be bought by Chelsea at 60m I wasn't mad.

nihilistjnr:


Fernandinho was the furthest player up the pitch but had fewer touches than Otamendi.

Fernandinho is the furthest player up the pitch but barely entered centre circle unlike Otamendi.

All this is actually incidental anyway, because you have still failed to explain why it was Stones who had to drop out for Fernandinho - which is really the crux of this debate.

That's actually all I'm interested in.

Why was it Stones who dropped for Fernandinho? Why not Laporte or Otamendi?

That is the answer to all your questions.

Melvyn11:

You don't drop one of your two most in lnform centre back when trying an experimental line up.

Melvyn11:


Common sense will tell you fernandinho will be their 4th choice centre back option behind Laporte,stones and otamendi.

airmark:


If you are talking bout him and not the age, you may have a point. Great CBs play into mid 30s so age is not an issue to any serious club here. He may give 7 great seasons to his team, if he is not a Boathand typa CB.

Wtf is European proven? Maguire was decent at the world cup and he has proved himself in the epl. He would improve United defence, hence they went for him. I will add 30m and give Leicester Rudiger, to have Maguire in my team.

airmark:


Raumdeuter will give you your size. He will be happy to reply you on those local trophies won by his team.

But for me, i'm still waiting for even his village people to give him one individual honour for his exploits under the apari coach.

nhilistjnr, ibime, ruadmueter n the rest,

What do you think about this team?

iamoyindamola:
your defence is okay but chillwell and Coleman likely to concede
Pepe and ceballos might not start ,neves can score and assist
Ederson against West ham considering it is the first match West ham won't hold back.
Attack is too blunt why not invest in expensive and proven scorers instead of these inconsistent lads
My opinion though



Btw nihilistjnr I haven't seen you in nairaland fa cup

during NYSC Dayo served in Osun state as an armed robber.

He was one of the guys they were using to train operation sweep those days.

You will never find a more blatantly unrepentant criminal anywhere outside kirikiri than your uncle.

LMFAOOOOO WTF

nihilistjnr:


So Pep cant drop Laporte and Otamendi for Fernandinho

But he can drop Stones

Yet you open your cavernous mouth to say this:


On a scale of one to ten, you rank an 11 for Stupidity, that username is no coincidence

What about this?

raumdeuter:


You dont need 2 heavyweight keeper when 1 will be sitting down on the bench.

Your defence is too expensive, goalscorers and assisters win fantasy. Reinforce your attack and midfield with scorers. Salah, Mane, Son, Moura, Auba, Lacazette, Kane, Pedro Pulisic, Sterling Bernardo Aguero you need these type of players in your team,

Which of the top point winners from last season do you have in your team

larride:


I now have Kane, Mane, Sterling. I included Rashford because he will prolly be the one spearheading our attack this season without Lukaku.

Robertson is the expensive one in that defense and it’s because of the assist.

raumdeuter:


This is a better team. Replace 1 of Lindelof or DDG they are from the same team playing a top side. They can easily concede

Jorginho and Ndidi too you can look for attacking midfielders from lower teams

airmark:


I remember you were that person that said
Van Dijk wasn't good for us at 60m and preferred
Rudiger. I hope you could see how your
Rudiger has been nominated as the best player in the world now?

raumdeuter:


This is a better team

Defenders and keepers mainly get points from clean sheets, Do you trust Man utd to keep a clean sheet vs chelsea cos you doubled up on Man Utd players in your defence

Jorginho and Ndidi, how do you hope to get points from them? How many goals and assists do they have historically?

nihilistjnr:


Uncle D

We no see your name in the other side.

What's up?

we are still waiting for belotti to be nominated as the best player in the world
