Our players don't like looking up. See Werner and Havertz again lipsrsealed

This would have been a clear run on goal. Fabinho wanted to play the offside trap but Werner was clearly onside. With his pace, Warner could have been face to face with the keeper in less than 2 seconds...

Put Jorginho in Mount's place in this exact setting, Werner should have had a goal to his name by now.

Even a simple pass to Havertz would have made a big difference.

Fashi Alcantara. That should have been Ziyech cry

Creating chances is more like Ziyech's prerogative. That's something you can't say about our midfield hence the mention of Alcantara.

We don't have to rely solely on our wingers, we need a midfielder who has the technical ability to unlock a stubborn defence with a single pass. Our current pack lacks that creative nous.

This boy is intelligent. He started the move and got into position for a header or tap in.

There were so many potential chances for us that never eventually materialized, especially in the first half. We would've done a lot more damage.

It was unfortunate that Kante had the ball in advanced positions several times, and couldn't do anything with it.. Even Mount fall hand

Jorginho is one player you would expect to do that more often. His passes to Abraham (vs Watford) and Giroud (vs Spurs) last season come to mind. Even Kovacic suppose sabi run that level.

Isn't it obvious that Ramu hates Chelsea with passion. He hates Chelsea more than any club in the world.

He hates Chelsea fans and every player that joins Chelsea.

This same Ramu rated Hazard high but once he joined Chelsea he became HIDDEN HAZARD.

See Havertz that called "Generation talent", he now mocks.

Look at Timo Werner, now a runs girls.

Am sure if Muller or Lewandoski joins Chelsea, he will hate them with passion.

His hatred for Chelsea is the reason his analysis is always bias

He is better than our midfielders but I don't see him as an assist freak. He is also a bit injury prone. I need someone like Fabregas. Jorginho should have been a close replacement but he is more interested in back and side passes.

Na Sarri cause am. Kante should be stopping attacks but he is now starting them. The funny part is that he drives forward so well but he is often clueless there.

He's better than our midfielders in that regard but then he isn't a midfielder, he's a winger. When a winger becomes a team's ONLY creative outlet, then there's a problem.

Etche-Umuahia na Federal I guess.

But the PH-Aba from Intels to Oyigbo one lane is done now... The worst area now is that Imo gate axis towards Obehie (which is in Abia State).

I only drive my car to Aba when it is absolutely necessary. The last time I drove to Aba, I regretted it. Coming back, I even contemplated connecting Owerri then PH.... That is how much I regretted using my car.

I've not been to Garrison in ages.
Boss, I vowed not to use my car on that road again till it is done. Road is so bad with wicked ditches and holes that can swallow your tires.

My last experience of driving via Owerrinta connecting Etche through PH was hell. And it is hellish when it rains

I don tell my maami say na video call for now. cheesy

Last week my buddy asked to pay me to use my car to Umuahia whereas he has his own car o grin

What we need is a player who can see those runs. Pulisic had 11 assists(Penalties won) last season. Havertz will most likely play in front of Kovacic and Kante. Silva is very good at playing long balls. Gilmour is also good too. I want to see a fully fit team playing before I start shouting Lampard out.

Jorginho is supposed to be on that level, he is technically adept, however, there is a question mark on the level of his awareness and the ability to pick out a player with a quick pass.

You can only mention few times he has shown that vision and timing. He's more comfortable with possessional play.

Midfield bosses like KDB, Alcantara, Kroos etc they run 1.8-2.5 key forward passes per game. None of our midfielders dey that level.

I take public transport to Aba. Galopin Motors dey carry 2 passengers per seat, #1,500. Its better for me that way.

I no fit use that Owerrinta road. It's better I reach Control, Owerri then start head to PH.

I doubt if PH - Aba expressway can EVER be smooth from beginning to end.

But from after Aba, around that junction that diverts to Owerri (forgotten the junction name).... From that area straight to Umuahia to Okigwe na smooth express way... You fit close eye dey drive sef cheesy

I expected him to play Werner, Giroud/Abraham and Odoi. Silva had to quarantine for 14 days, he trained with the team for a few days and he doesn't speak English that well. You can't just throw him in against Liverpool like that.

What makes you think Lampard bought Havertz to play him on the wing? Do you think Havertz will be on the wing if Pulisic and/or Ziyech is available?

That's Isialangwa junction. That express way na still FG construct am, the contract is overseen by Arab Contractors. Nothing good can ever come out of that pot-bellied he-goat we have as a governor.

Give him that express way to construct, and watch him award the contract to low budget simps like Setraco and Marvelous Brothers.

See how Tomori performed when he came off the bench. I can bet that he would have handled Mane in that situation. Rudiger will enter and give 2 assists and one penalty to Liverpool angry . He should be sent to Bayern.
