Tuchel also said Kante best position is a double six not as a single six due to positioning

I remember how I kept mentioning this sometime back but was badgered.

Glad Tuchel sees it the same way

Squawka was right about both Kehrer and Thiago

And blamed both for the goal conceded

Thiago was the most experienced defender and still defended like a rookie leading to the CL final loss the only final of his career

He is no stranger to such disaster

He led the defence that lost a 4-0 win in the CL vs Barcelona

He has been practicing for that when Milan defeated Arsenal 4-0 only for Silva to lead them to collapse to a 3-0 return leg defeat

Just like when psg had a 3-1 win vs Chelsea only for Silva led defence to collapse at Stamford bridge

Any team depending on Silva to lead their defence is not ready. He is only good enough to pick balls from the net

Don't ever compare that disaster to Boatank a CL and world cup winner
Thank goodness you back.. cool

The other three players are Kovacic, Jorginho and N’Golo Kante. That means it’s not easy for Billy to find his place, but he’s the no.4 right now in my head and to be the no.4 for two positions is a pretty good start for Billy.”

- Thomas Tuchel

Seems Mount's competition is in attack lol.

Now we see if he can compete

Piece of info if you want enter aülts. . . swap trade volume is switching from Eêëth network to Bïïnance network and aülts with most upside are now on Bïïïnance network. Some liquidity providers are also considering dumping Eëëth network for Bïïnance network to tap into retail. I think Bïïnance easily wins against Eëëth due to access to retail market eg Pancakeswap is already challenging Unïswap for volume of trade on their respective swap exchanges - $600m in trades per day vs $1bln for Uniswap - in just a few days of launching. That's why I decided to ride BeeNBee coin this week as their network is usurping Eëëth network. Every aült on this list below which has launched has 10xed in the last 10 days eg CAKE and BAKE. So keep an eye on these and their launch, and of course, only put in what you can afford to lose. Only available on Bïïnance not Køøinbeezy.

Sorted out Binance and jumped on Dodge. Complicated app. I cannot find these Aults you mention here on there. Do you know your way around this? Can't see it on the lite version either. I must be doing something wrong.

Meanwhile, have you seen what's happening to IOTA? Read somewhere that they are making big moves in the market, including offering Oracle capabilities. So made a move last week. Price nearly tripled since last week - doubled since yesterday.

Actually it's clear that Kante performs best as a 4, we have even seen it under Lampard too. Some coaches just see him differently e.g. Sarri, Tuchel.

Nope. Disagree

Not true bro.
At Leicester city winning season, he was paired with Danny Drinkwater, who held the fore while he roamed about doing the dirty work.
When we won the EPL in 2016/2017, Nemanja Matic often sits back and allow him hound our opponents & win back possession.
Even at France world cup winning squad, he was paired with Pogba & they forged a successful partnership at the heart of their midfield.

United is a practical example...If United had made it out of the group stage with Rashford scoring goals and then get past the 2nd round and quarters with Rashford again delivering the goods, will you now say Martial was the most important player for Man Utd if he scores in the semis and final?

My point is that you can't undermine the performance of a player in the group stage, 2nd round and quarters because you think they're not crucial...If they're not crucial, will you make it to the next round in you fail in any of those stages?

Abeg who fit help me explain to this bros? I am tired abeg.

Performance in knockouts carry more weight than Performance in groups

You have heard people say Messi did not score a goal in knockout just group stage, have you have anyone being criticized for not scoring in groups just knockouts?

Kante best position is a box-to-box midfielder in a double-pivot system it is funny how some from the fans see it differently. Conte, Sarri, Ranieri and Tuchel all concur to this fact. I remember Ozil and Ramsey dragging him out of position when he played in a midfield 3 during Conte's first game vs Arsenal

It doesn't matter what Brazil did, the fact remains that Copa America is a continental competition. Equivalent to AFCON and Euros and wining it is very huge. That competition has teams with 9 world cup wins and 14 world cup final appearances between them. Its safe to say that apart from World Cup and arguably Euros, Copa is the next biggest international competition in the world. And you know this dayo

What makes a competition valuable is what importance people place on it

To Zenit or Lech Poznan Europa cup is great the greatest trophy, To Real Madrid or Barcelona Europa cup is useless that is why top clubs play their 2nd team in it. If Madrid or Barcelona is top drop to Europa do you think they will field Messi or Ronaldo? When ordinary Chelsea excused Hazard from Europa cup

Will a Real Madrid be celebrating or anxious to win Europa? That its the 2nd most glamorous UEFA club competitions means nothing to Madrid
Just like Copa being a continental competition means nothing to Brazil, It might be important to Chile or Paraguay.

Brazilians actually preffered winning Olympics to the Copa America where they will parade nameless homebased players at times

Na you quote me when I give you one question now you go run away.

According to squawka T.silva was found wanting which means he was no where to be found when the goal was scored and gave him a rating of 7 out of 10.
But Kehrer was massively culpable for the goal which means he is the culprit or cause of the goal and gave him rating of 4.
So on this basis we cannot say T.silva is the one that cause the goal a dent in his defensive duty that day but he is not the cause of that goals as you want us to believe.

What about squawka rating J. Terry as the best defender in EPL history?
Egbon not your rating but your reliable squawka rating.

Was Thiago Silva "found wanting" for the winning goal? Yes or No will suffice

If someone doesn't score in the group stage, how will the team progress?

Will the critics even have the opportunity to make such comments if Barcelona get dumped out in the group stage? No...It therefore means that those who do the job in the group stage, 2nd round and quarters are just as important.

Yeah. But Copa is a continental tournament. Whether Brazil rate it or not doesnt make it less relevant. For example British teams dont rate Olympics. Its not an easy tournament to win. Just like saying AFCON is useless because Nigeria dont rate it. Especially as Abacha ordered super Eagles to boycott the 1996 tournament because of his rift with Mandela and also did not enter the 1998 tournament.

Europa cup is a continental tournament, yet all top clubs send their 2nd team to it.

Most top teams will rather win 1 CL than win 7 Europa cup, They even rest their players for that tournament, yet its a continental tournament

Group stages are basically walk overs for any serious team, Its just to qualify for the real deal.
It will take a total disaster for top teams not to make it, Its basically like you passing Primary 6 exams in your current state.
Will it be an outstanding performance to pass primary 6 exams now? Yet if you fail it, you wont go to the next level

The group stage, 2nd round and quarters were not crucial right?

Manchester United are out of the UCL because people didn't do their job in the group stage. If we had progress, someone will come here are say the 2nd r8und is crucial...Who defines which match is crucial and using what metric?

All football matches are important unless the trophy is already won...

While this is politically true, and politcally correct, the truth is some matches are more important than others

There are some group matches of my team that I won't even watch, but I will never miss a semi or final

Just like I will not watch or care about Nigeria world cup qualifiers but if Nigeria should make the world cup knockout, trust me I wont miss a minute

or you think if Chelsea makes a semi final vs Barcelona its the same as the group game vs Krasnodar?

Many countries even have different match allowances for group stages and for knockouts

Brazil that uses Copa America to test new talents many times, will they do that at a world cup?
