Spy360:
I think we are all just being bitter, and playing the blame game.

We lost to City, Pep's City arguably the best team ever in PL and we are throwing tantrums like spoilt brats.

Cool down, if that final was so important, Man Utd and Chelsea should be crying more.

Besides do we deserve the cup more than City? City invested more so they deserved it.

Hmm Spy360 the same Pep that was overrated and you swore will not win anything in England abi eruditor no dey see?

Lana1:
Its all about the take-ons.
He has only one goal against the top 6 teams that was even a penalty. He ll disappear for 5 to 10 games, no goals, like 2 assists, 90,000 take-ons and then score brace against number 20 on the table and then disappear again....but his loyal fans go still dey call am best in the league and better than Neymar.
Shior!!

The Hidden Defence Force are coming for you

meanwhile this was what Conte said about his removal of Hidden

Conte's substitution of Hazard drew widespread criticism, but after the match the Chelsea head coach insisted he replaced the tiring Belgian in an attempt to preserve the "balance" of his team.

"It was a tactical decision," Conte said when asked if Hazard was injured. "We have to keep the same performance for 90 minutes. Otherwise we don't have a great balance. Every single player has to work with the ball, without the ball, otherwise we lose our balance and the game.

"I think he finished his energy. In the first half he ran a lot. In the second half he started the same way but when I see a player is a bit tired, my task is to find a different solution."

Does this mean Hidden was not able to keep his performance for 90mins or Hidden was unwilling to work without the ball

Una go like sign Alderwereld?

Since Costa started playing for Atletico back in January, Antoine Griezman has scored 10 league goals In 2 months
Yet Simeone is still a defensive coach
Those are the people who know how to benefit from a striker like Costa not those that will be dancing one corner

Thauvin(25yrs) 27 games 15 goals 11 assists
Fekir(24yrs) 24 games 16 goals 5 assists
Malcolm(21yrs) 25games 8 goals 6 assists

Nihilist:
is there another thauvin, or is the newcastle flop you're talking about?

A40:
De Bruyne and Lukaku were once Chelsea flops. Salah too

I havent seen this Thauvin guy play though I know say he flop for Newcastle but that should not stop us from getting him if he has shown that he has improved. Ribery sef at the beginning of his career went to Galatasaray didnt have a good spell, back to Marseille shined before coming to Bayern

Thauvin might be on a similar trajectory

There are some articles out there hailing him as improved.

https://www.si.com/soccer/2018/02/15/bayern-munich-target-marseilles-florian-thauvin-replace-ageing-wingers-robben-ribery

Also this Thauvin guy if he is good enough is of the right age. Malcolm is 21, Coman is 21. Baley is 21, Pulisic is 20, I am not a fan of having two 21yr olds running the wings for Bayern

A40 of the 3 Fekir Malcolm and Thauvin which is the real winger not just an AM fitting on the wings. Someone with lightening pace and good decision making

Ibime:
Sleekdot, see your German league keepers disgracing Der Naziland.

Either this one is belle-face or high on Tramadol. He claims he thought penalty spot was the ball. Is he a science student?

Meanwhile this one was busy drinking palmwine at the back of his goal while play was going on.

Pastors Skimpledawg and Elrony, do you think this guy will be ready when the trumpet sounds?

You remember this

VAR is a joke

Chelsea last FA cup game 2 red cards, Survived penalties

City Last FA cup cup 1 red card didn't survive Wigan

Spurs will Spurs survive VAR

Howard Webb retires but his manhood lives on. He has been mandated to deliver something by force for his team

hensben:
But goals is the reason you want to start this argument since Salah is scoring.

As an attacking player you either score a lot or assist a lot you need to do either or both like Messi

A40:
I think the game has evolved beyond having two speed stars on the flanks. Madrid regularly used Isco on the left last year so I think James can feature there too, I don't think a suboptimal Robben on the left would help us.

For me the problem lies centrally. If Javi is the de-facto DM who then starts at CM between Thiago and Vidal? Thiago is a midfield controller and it would be unwise to leave him off as we go into the latter stages, at the same time we need Vidal's aggression. Maybe it would boil down to who we are facing but I don't envy Jupp at all

Every top side still have pacey wingers as their first choice, Pace is still important in attack if you are not pacey enough you get sent to midfield

City has Sane and Sterling, Madrid have CR7 and Bale, PSG has Neymar and Mbappe Liverpool is burning everyone with Sallah and Mane

Madrid went 4-4-2 because Bale wasnt fit, right now Isco isnt playing again and James was so benched and thrown out

Personally I must start Martinez and Vidal. Na Thiago and James go fight for the last slot. I prefer the solidity that Vidal and Martinez provides first and not for Thiago to be escorting players in the field.

Martinez---Vidal
--James/Thiago
Muller--Robben
------Lewy

hmm. The stone go fit hit neymar o.

You don see the number of goals Neymar has racked up for club and country?

hensben:
Should we say ronaldinho was overrated since he never scored 40 goals/season

Ronaldinho is not a point 9. He regularly delivered double digit assists in his prime

My people good morning

CapitalCee:
Who agreed with you on what?

for your manager ascertion to hold water, why then did you place Klopp ahead of mou? you are just contradicting yourself

Yu havent told us why Sterling should be behind Mahrez, why Mendy should make the team or why Bailly should make it

O why Mou should be the manager for the season based on what he won 15yrs ago

CapitalCee:
Who agreed with you on what?

for your manager ascertion to hold water, why then did you place Klopp ahead of mou? you are just contradicting yourself

Klopp and Mourinho are currently separated by 2 points and Klopp has been in better form in recent times. They can be neck to neck and based on preference

Guardiola is so far ahead, Mourinho is marginally ahead of the rest

Greatihex:
are you saying that you wouldn't have argued with anyone who said by last season that, conte is better than Pep?

Last season If there was a coach of the season award, Conte would have won it and it easily. Conte won the league with like double digits right?

CapitalCee:
And if not that you are just being disingenuous, Why would Klopp be assistant and Mou the reserve coach as stated by you. even by your flawed logic. Mou has bettered Klopp in 3 competitions so far, while both are favourite to go through to the quarter finals of the UCL.
if not for your hateful nature why place Klopp ahead of mou?

So have you agreed on why Sterling should be ahead of Alexis and Mahrez, why Mendy doesnt have a place in the starting lineup and why Bailly should sit for Otamendi

Also why Pep should deservedly be the Manager of the team over Mourinho?

Maybe its my anti English bias thats why I hate Mou the Englishman

Now who has been illogical?

CapitalCee:
you are who are doing deal? So in 2009 you will make pep. the manager and SAF his assistant abi. that's my question. You brought the assistant issue oga stick to the argument. You are turning round And round

In 2009 Pep would have been the manager of the season in UEFA and the best SAF would have been in 2009 would be the assistant

In many ratings Pep was the manager of the year in 2009 and 2011 and Ferguson was the runner up

CapitalCee:
Mind you I not making a case for who won more in England. Mou is the most successful manager in the World now. no manager still Managing has won more trophies than him. Wenger is not more successful than mourinho for example. but mou is more successful than pep, Klopp Conte and poch for example, which bellies his reputation. Hence can never be an assistant to anyone still Managing never mind pep or hilariously Klopp as you stated initially. As even this season Mou has performed better than Klopp in all competitions. If SAF has still been coaching, then Mou can be his assistant not to his subordinates.

If in 2009 that Barca won the treble who would have been the coach of the year to coach UEFA team of the season Pep who just won his first or SAF?

I dont understand why this is so hard. Its called team of the SEASON that means the best people for this season not for their entire career
Sterling this season has been better than Mahrez or Sanchez and rightfully will be picked

Okay lets make this simple, there are PFA awards coming in a few weeks Should we wager on who would be picked for the team? If Sterling makes it you give me $1k, If Sanchez or Mahrez makes it I give you $1k

If there is a manager of the season award in the PFA Guardiola wins you give me $1k Mou wins it I give you $1k

Is this fair enough and does it resolve this confusion

If you take this bet then I agree that I am the one not logical, if you refuse this bet then can we agree that you are the one not logical

DEAL or no DEAL?

Why is the Wenger question beating about the bush. Your reason for arguing for Mourinho is that he has won more trophies in England than others, but Wenger has won more trophies in England than others So why are you not pushing for Wenger

lol whenever an argument is turning against dayo, he will twist the criteria to suit his narrative. that's when you will start hearing hilarious words like.
catchment area, Poling boot award, League cup is not a major trophy, etc. leave him he is a comedian

You still havent make any point here. How is the argument turning against me?

CapitalCee:
Wenger did not defeat my logic you are just beating about the bush.

now answer this simple questions. Please as numbered.

1. After the 2012 season, would you have Placed Mancini or Di matteo as managers while SAF is their assistants.
2. As at may 2017 would Zidane be the manager of your team while Pep is the assistant.

3. should we do away with the reputation of heynkes, since Klopp waz on top of henckyes in 2012 and make Klopp the manager and heynckes the assistant?

4. so after last season Conte should immediately be turbaned the manager while PEP is his assistant?

ogbeni do you check what you are typing at all?

WHy is the Wenger question beating about the bush. Your reason for arguing for Mourinho is that he has won more trohies in England than others, but Wenger has won more trophies in ENgland than others So why are you not pushing for Wenger

sod09:
john fashanu couldnt make nigeria squad yet he ran to england
costa playing for spain instead of brazil does that mean he cant bench fred or jesus
the bolded doesn't mean a player is better or not
deco couldnt make brazil team cos they were better than him even juninho paulista didnt get much playing time for brazil to show how good that squad was

Who said John Fashanu couldnt make Nigerian team? Players who have options will first choose the more prestigious nation before the other option. England was more prestigious than Nigeria and Brazil was more prestigious than Portugal or Croatia, Soon you will say Dele Alli cant Make Nigerian team was why he chose England

What is the point of this post? Is it to prove me wrong that Deco was good enough to make Brazil or that Eduardo was good enough to play for Brazil?

CapitalCee:
people might have different opinions but to me Drogba is slightly better than Micheal. but dayo is notorious for his hate for Englishmen. like his Boateng vs Terry debate. and he said Ferdinand only played for man u because of catchment area.

Those are just strawman arguments
I love Scholes and he is an Englishman, I love Gazza he is an Englishman, I love McManaman he is an Englishman. I dont rate Hazard as high and he is not English. I don't like Higuain and he is not English

I think Drogba is better than Owen, You think Drogba is better than Owen but you said mine was because of English hate, what is your own reason for picking Drogba ahead of Owen? Do you also hate English players

liveLongNprospa:
Dayo my man

Stick to the argument.
These are WC awards. They are open to everybody.
I can understand your hate for English players, but this argument holds no water.

You are trying to bring in different examples to suit your argument.
I am sticking to just this argument alone.

So who is better? And why is he better.
Also do you have the numbers and awards to support your claim?

If you can't provide these things then please take a chill pill and argue something else

Was Bebeto not eligible for European golden boot and he never won, Which of the awards Larson was eligible for was Bebeto not?

Owen won Balondor, Henry never won. Who is better between the 2? Is Balon dor not a world class award, was it not open to everyone including Henry, Xavi, Lampard, Gerrard Rooney

Kholiwe:
Don't be deluded. Drogba was never better than Owen.

You think so? Many people will disagree with you

CapitalCee:
sometimes dayo don't check most of his post, before clicking the submit button. he knows the game well but his amalanomics sometimes makes him comment like hensbrain

You havent made any point here

CapitalCee:
Yes because Klopp that sat on top of bundesliga for 2 seasons ahead of heynckes is better than him, or Mancini is better than SAF. or Conte that Sat there last season is better than mou or pep. this is what you call logic abi?

If we are to pick the best Buli coach in 2012, to coach the Buli team of the year Klopp would have been the one not Heynckes

if we are to pick the coach t manage the team of last season Conte would have been there ahead of Pep or Mourinho

The team is called team of the SEASON not of the past 2 decades.

CapitalCee:
please dayo answer the question in my last paragraph, leave Wenger alone.

at least it has been established that your Rooney example is way off in terms of managers.

You said the point is about coaches and their lifetime achievement and trophies they won several years ago will always make them elite, I asked you if Wenger is the best or top 2 in the league based on your logic and you are now asking me to leave Wenger alone

Is it because Wenger defeats your logic?

sod09:
larson bros...
bebeto playe in one of the best brazilian squad. my point is you can say an average brazilian is better than some european elite
btw if you call bebeto an average player what will you call benard, wanger love, fred etc

bebeto is average Brazilian player, Larson is elite Swedish player and I think Bebeto was even better. Some players who will never make Brazil team will be elite in many other countries

E.g Deco who couldnt make Brazil became a Portugues elite, Eduardo will never make Brazil and he is one of Croatias best players. If Bebeto switched to Sweden in 1985, he would have been Swedens best ever player

So the point is still that being average in Brazil is elite in Sweden, Being average in Germany is elite level for England

Littbarski in England would have been one of the best English players ever

CapitalCee:
you are not just being logical, it's either you are. deliberately twisting facts as usual or just being ridiculous. my issue with you is you are very knowledgeable about issues, but you most times overflog the facts out of shape.

Attack the illogical point and make your logical argument from it. Most of my points are very logical

You think picking a team of the year, Sanchez and Mahrez deserves it over Sterling who has almost as many goals as the 2 combined this season

You think Mendy who played less than 300minutes this season, You think that Bailly who has missed about 3months out of 7months deserves to make the team of the season

You think these positions are logical?
