E be like say na you go Siddon for dugout on Saturday since Arteta no go dey there

Roland17:
Excellent thoughts Nwannem, I thoroughly enjoyed reading.

I had to go back and watch them even closer and I realized Emery is implementing the bulk of the same thing he was trying with us as coach.

One of the tactic Emery utilizes is quick passing to transition from defense to attack, see their goal against City. They are not necessary trying to engage in midfield plays when they have possession because they want to be direct and transition into the final third of opponents half quickly.

They also use long balls to transition plays from defense to the attack, thus evading the need to involve the midfield, see my first point. I saw Emery utilize this particular tactic when he coached us. They have 2 pacy forwards who can make runs behind the defense to connect with those long balls from defense.

Long/ outside shots and the use of aerial balls to attack. For a team with small midfielders and attackers, they sure attack aerially. This is where I am most worried about because of Raya. We need Raya to control and dominate aerial play, otherwise we will get punished. The use of long shots is intentional because they have quick attackers who can attack any rebounds or spills from the goalkeeper.

Overall, this is going to be a tough game and I believe Emery still harbors some discontentment with how he was let go and would want to use that as motivation. I believe this team can give a professional and disciplined performance and get all 3 points.

Too early? When will it be time to settle your "debt"

yinkeys:
Man City usually lose whenever they don’t start Rodri

raumdeuter:
I did not follow the news and don't know much of it but if its true as reported then its a wasteful spending which is likely to settle some politician

yinkeys:

Don’t be overconfident
With the confidence and momentum gained from the Man City win
Aston Villa and their fans are planning to batter Arsenal on Saturday
@ The Villa Park

Bailey & Watkins are deadly

Looking like Liverpool will win their next 4 games to clinch the top position @ mid season

The bolded is the main point. Their strength may end up being their weakness in that match. I wan see how their FBs go advance with Martinelli and Saka on the wing. I'm particularly worried about Zinchenko...

Truth be told, Yorubas have the highest number of investment out the South West.

You can see their investment (yoruba pentecostal churches) in all most every corner in the East.

Here are the top Yoruba investment in the South East:

1. Redeemed Christian Church of God

2. Deeper Life Church

3. The Apostolic Church

4. Celestial Church of Christ

5. Mountain of Fire Ministries

South East governors should start taxing these Yoruba investments.

In comparison to fatigue, I am at a 8 for a calf.

daveP:
Ya kidding me? 😂

Stop naawwwwww.


You are more likely to know wassup from the live physio involvement than from the manager(who's job is to use the real info to his advantage against consequent games)

I'm presenting evidence you're still saying drop evidence 😂

BlueRayDick:
Nothing u've written here explains why he benched an uninjured Gabriel for Kiwior earlier the season. That particular decision looked like trying to fix what is not broken.

Like I said earlier, thank God he backed out of that position and we have a stronger backline once again.

daveP:
He held his calf now. The speed at which the physio used his comms and kept talking for long should allow any of us to know this is no fatigue issue, at least.

BlueRayDick:
Well, the something new didn't look too good to we the fans. Thank God he backed out and we have a solid CB partnership now.

mostob:
After his goal today against Wolves, Bukayo Saka (36) has now scored more Premier League goals for Arsenal than Cesc Fabregas (35) in 64 less games.

He needs five more to overtake Aaron Ramsey (40) who is next in the list.

Only 13 Arsenal players have scored more goals in the Premier League than Bukayo Saka.

He’s only 22 years old… #afc

BlueRayDick:
There’s no explanation for the madness bro . The only defence I can come up with in favor of Arteta as a stan is : “ Most likely he did that to bring out the best in Gabriel ; maybe he wanted to put him in a situation to let him know he’s not indispensable “ .

Arsenal’s defence in the league has conceded the least of goals this season . Gabriel and Saliba partnership is crazy ! No CB pairing in the league comes close . We’ve only conceded 10 prior to Cunha’s goal yesterday .

Roland17:
No vex, your MCM too dey lamba

He should have just told us Tomiyasu will be evaluated and he doesn’t know extent of the injury or what the injury is.

The response on this thread is one of excitement and positivity after reading your post because of course we all need Tomiyasu but the fact is fatigue isn’t why he dropped to the ground clutching his calf in discomfort.

Roland17:
From Arteta's statement, it seems Vieira had been playing/ training with the groin injury before the red card game and they were trying to manage the injury. The degree of damage may have gotten worse and beyond what they can manage without surgery after that game.

germaphobe:
I just be reading some emotional comment and be shaking my head. You want result this method is giving you result and you're complaining. Makes me wonder if they even listen to or read about what ex players have to say about pep and jose. Na English medie cause all these shaa.

Lush100:
.

E tire me oh.
Small competition for keeper...May be we should have only one keeper then or one player for each position.
Instead of him to show he is way better?

Roland17:
Guys we have a goalkeeping problem! Neither inspire confidence to me.

Na Spy360 get us this week. A smash and grab was inevitable because Brentford were very compact and recovered well without the ball.

Nna I go review all these activities abeg. I realise say na my Madam dey cause all these billings not the kids directly. Even piano lessons they grumble every Sunday that they don't want to go. Last weekend my son walked out of football practice after 10 mins saying he's not doing again and my daughter walked out halfway through like some NLC worker, and they are always grumbling before they go. I later asked my wife how much we pay for football, she said £38 for each per month, and they miss half their lessons anyway. I said cancel it from December. From now we will only pay for what they show passion in and take initiative on except swimming which is a life saving skill. My papa no pay one kobo for me to play ball and I never failed to play everyday and twice on weekends for free. These guys can't trap ball after 3 years training and plenty billings because they ignore the footballs I strategically placed around the house and do no practice outside of their lessons.

See those costumes billings na another one. Christmas dance and drama shows are coming up and between billings for costumes and buying show tickets for all and sundry, I come dey wonder if I dey train pikin for university. But if I play Kizz Daniel song, dem go dey move off beat after how many years of these dance school billings. But bring any Naija pikin play beat, dem go dey move on beat without going to any dance school. I believe we just dey whine ourself with these things, and outsourcing certain life skills at premium cost. Heaven will not fall if I dance with my daughter every weekend, I guarantee after 3 months she go dey move rhythmically while if I play ball with my son for garden for 6 months, he go dey raise 10 easily. All these lessons na keeping up with the Joneses wey mummies group dey do.

Jodera:
While I wish for that to happen but I'm afraid that forced debate won't happen.

As it is, Arteta have made Raya his number one and we all know how stubborn Arteta is with his decision.

The reason why I'm hoping for Ramsdale to put in a commanding and good show is because let it be that Arteta have someone good to fall back on Incase Raya starts misbehaving or sort.

But for the number one debate, I'm over certain it's Raya.

Emaprince:
He is not confused. He is one of those probably getting a few crumbs from the criminals..so his duty is to come online to catch cruise with the situation of things.

If you read most of their posts, you will know they are just mocking the situation of Nigeria. Behind that post is a man that will say "mugus" to the publics' back after encouraging them to be faithful towards the brighter transformation of this country. It's just like what Oasis is doing here.

My mama trained her boys to do everything a woman can do and that includes cooking.

As an adult immigrant, understanding the importance of saving and efficient management of financial resources is your first and most important step to financial success in the diaspora. This is because if you follow the spending habits of Americans, you will struggle financially and just live pay check to paycheck with no savings or asset.

How about phone, cable and internet plans? Memberships and subscriptions nko? Cars nko? There are people who are obsessed with drinking a cup of coffee that costs $10 or more daily! How about waste of food and groceries in the house? Those wen dey smoke 2 packs of cigarettes daily nko?
