Jodera:
From what I understand with Spy, using the word "clinicality or clinical" is an insult to top players

Let's say for example, if Haaland starts missing big chances in his last 4 matches and you say something like "Haaland has not been clinical of late, he needs to step up", Spy would see you as someone insulting Haaland as one shouldn't use clinical and Haaland together.


That's why he would ask you
Is Nketiah more clinical than GJ?, then still turn around to ask you again,
Does GJ miss more chances compared to Nketiah?


And he'll still believe he asked you two different questions grin
You are close but not there yet.

Your mistake is that you use clinicality only to judge strikers performance.

But...

1. You find it hard to say that Nketiah is more clinical than Jesus, but find it easy to say Jesus misses more chances than Nketiah.

2. You find it hard to say Nketiah is more productive than Jesus, but find it easy to say he scores more goals than Jesus.

The fact is both are mutually exclusive.

It's like saying Everton beat Arsenal, therefore they are a better team.

When you are asked why, you cry Spy is setting trap for you. The truth is that the reason why Nketiah has a better average than Jesus is what is different in their styles of play. And that is Nketiah stays more in the box. Not that it is because Jesus is not clinical. If you have any other logical reason, I will be glad to hear it.

In an argument, if more than three people are opposing you, something must be wrong with your notion. Your notion may not totally be wrong but there is a defect.
Every notion has a defect that is why there is an argument. However it does not matter how many people opposes a view, what's rational is rational, what's logical is logical, what's sensible is sensible.

The bolded is exactly what you should have said since. Clinicality is why our strikers are not scoring, not because of stay in the box nonsense.
Good.

Since Nketiah has a higher goal/game average which of this is correct?

A. He is more clinical than Jesus.
B. He stays more in the box than Jesus.

This is a simple question.

Sp.y is very good at twisting words and you’d lost completely during the argument.

We were all here when he said Balogun would break to into the squad before last year... baba change subject matter.

Now Jesus is losing chances because he’s not inside box to bury those chances (composure)... Nketia he used as a case study who’s more compose inside box is losing chances and baba is here twisting issues again.

What I could depict from their argument is Ego is strongly online.
I am happy you are following the conversation.

Please explain why you think Nketiah has a higher goals average than Jesus.

Spy, your questions here are traps. You have totally deviated from the main argument.
You claimed Jesus doesn't score much because he doesn't stay inside the box. By the time he arrive in the box, he'll lack composure to finish chances. You now referenced Nketiah being a poacher who usually stays inside the box, probably why he do score more than Jesus.

Jodera and I disagreed that Jesus is not scoring much because he is not clinical enough. Remember we brought stats.

Now, Nketiah has been missing chances lately and has not scored in the last 4 games. Jodera asked you why Nketiah is not scoring since he do stay inside the box and so should finish chances comfortably because HE HAS COMPOSURE.

This matter no hard reach like this na cheesy
If they are traps, it simply means there are information you are hiding because they will expose your argument.

Here is the answer your question. Nketiah is not as clinical for a main striker in a top club as Arsenal. He is not as clinical as the likes of Jesus, Haaland, Rashford, Kane etc. He will get better say by next season but he is not there yet. Ask me why he has a higher goals average than Jesus despite being less clinical.


Meanwhile, I have answered all your questions.

Go and answer my questions.

Ahswear...I don lost for this argument o grin grin
una just dey turn everything like Amala Polaris
Let me make it simple for you. Just answer yes or no, don't explain. Straight answers and you will see where the argument is coming from.

1. Is Nketiah more clinical than Gabriel Jesus having a higher goals average?

2. If Gabriel Jesus changes his pattern of dropping deep, will he score more goals?

3. Does Gabriel Jesus waste more chances he should score compared to Nketiah?

4. Is Nketiah more productive than Gabriel Jesus?

Note: Don't explain, trying to explain will complicate the point. Just say yes or no.

Other ways as in ways not expected, but it still happened.

For example, I predicted that Balogun will reach the level of Saka, ESR and Martinelli. It didn't happen in Arsenal but it has happened in French league.

You can twist it all you want, but anyone who followed our conversation knew that you never really loved Jesus style of play.

Jodera:
There's big difference between being a better finisher and being a better striker. Finishing is all about clinicality(converting your chances) while being a striker is much deeper than that.

You claimed for Jesus to finish chances, he needs composure thus he must stop all what he's doing to make the team click.

So I ask, Why is Nketiah with all his composure missing chances? No turn amala!!
First you argued that Nketiah hasn't scored more goals per average appearance now you are still arguing about his clinicality.

Nketiah will miss chances that Jesus will easily score. But because he is always available, he will score tap ins and rebounds to boost his goals average.

Next question.

Me that predicted Balogun's breakout season.

I also said that Balogun will be a better striker than Nketiah and will join the class of Saka and Martinelli.

I am going to make another bold prediction.

I believe that Gabriel Jesus is a better finisher than Nketiah.

When he returns (with hope that he will focus more on scoring- his heat map should show him spending more time in the box) he will outscore Nketiah.

At this rate, you need to let us know if you're catching cruise. grin grin
Hahaha

Jodera does not want to accept he goofed. By asking that question on Nketiah he didn't know he will commit himself.

He was the one who said Nketiah is a better finisher than Gabriel Jesus . Yet he is asking why Nketiah missed chances.

Mine was that Nketiah despite being less clinical will score more goals. I said it's because GJ does not focus more on scoring compared to build up.

This whole thing started with Gabriel Jesus not scoring enough goals. I said it's because of his sacrifice, dropping deep all the time which leads to lack of composure. Jodera said it's a lie, that it's because he is not clinical.

Then I predicted that if Nketiah gets his chance he will score more goals even though he is less clinical than GJ. Note that I said this before the world cup, before GJ became injured. Jodera accepted the challenge.

Nketiah has so far scored 9 goals with just 1 assist, while GJ has 5goals and 6 good assists. I was proven right.

When he saw that Nketiah was scoring more goals 4 in 5 PL games as at then, confirming my prediction he immediately changed mouth, that Nketiah is more clinical than Jesus. I said it's not true.

Now that Nketiah has been missing chances, he is asking- why?

That's how he became confused. 😁😁😁

Let him come out and apologize and confess that Nketiah is not as clinical as he thought.

Your questions are misdirected. Ask Jodera Lol

He was the one who said Nketiah is better than Jesus.

The fact that Jesus has more assists than goals proves my point that he sacrifices is personal glory for others. Instead of Joder.a to appreciate his contributions he is saying that Jesus is not clinical. SMH

Many of our players gained awareness when playing with GJ. Even Martinelli miss period as soon as GJ got injured. The only person not affected is Saka.

Jodera:
I have answered you. Nketiah have scored goals this season more than Jesus.... Not because of any composure but because he converts his chances more. All Jesus needs to do is to do make it simple in his scoring like Nketiah but you claimed otherwise, that all he needs is composure because of his running around, interplay and pressing makes him lacks that


Now Nketiah is not running around, staying in the box And have all the composure in the world like you claimed, why is he missing the big chances against Everton, Man city (twice) and Aston Villa?
By implications of the bolded, you mean that Nketiah is a better finisher than Jesus? Lol
Even Nketiah will be flattered.

By the way isn't conversion related to composure inside the box?

The question you asked is for you. Since you claimed that Nketiah takes his chances better than Gabriel Jesus. grin grin grin

Jodera:
He's not clinical than GJ yet you claimed if given the same opportunity, he'll score more than GJ?

You see how you're confusing yourself?
He scores more because he stays in the box more. Most of his goals are tap ins.

It's that simple.

The simple fact that Nketiah scores more means that GJ is sacrificing his goals. If you check you will see that Nketiah has just 1 assist whereas Jesus has 6.

It's so simple if you don't want to be deliberately confused.

You told us that if he's stationed in the box and stop his running around, he'll have composure to score goals.

I said that he is not as clinical as other top strikers for a top club as Arsenal. He is not even as clinical as GJ.

So my Question is simple: If with all the whole composure and advise Nketiah is doing and is still missing chances. So tell me, what is the cause of Nketiah's misses?
Thank you for making it simple. grin

First let me say I apprentice contributions by Nketiah standing in for GJ during his absence.

Nketiah is missing chances because he is not as clinical a top Arsenal striker should be. He is more like a poacher not one that can score all type of goals. He is still learning and I believe he will come good. But he is not as clinical as Kane or Haaland or even GJ.

Yet, he has more goals average as a starter for us than GJ. How do you explain this. grin grin

Lol Spy.... there's a reason I quoted the posts above again. According to you, Gabriel Jesus run around too much and by the time he arrived inside the box, he will not have the required composure to score. You didn't bring anything relating to clinicality to your argument.

It was Jodera that brought the number of shots taken, big chances missed and other stats to show you that Jesus was just not clinical enough and not that he lacks composure.
Lol

You are right. I wasn't the one who talked about clinicality. It was Jodera.

Mine was about staying in the box. But I also said that Nketiah though less clinical will score more goals. The fact is Nketiah has more goals as a starter than GJ.. So despite being less clinical, he scores more because he is stationed in the box. He will miss a lot of clear chances but he will score more. I am right.

Now let Oga Jodera explain to us whether Nketiah is more clinical than GJ after missing those chances. 😜

I dey follow am boss na why I go dig out past talks. grin grin

The question Jodera asked is why has Nketiah not scored in the last 4 games or so despite the fact that he do stay inside the box according to you?

Remember we sighted clinicality as the sole reason why Jesus was not scoring but you didn't agree.
If this question in the bolded is in relation to Gabriel Jesus (as informed by the last paragraph) then I can't answer as I have always claimed that GJ is better and even more clinical.
Jodera should answer the question because he was the one who claimed that Nketiah is scoring more goals simply because he is more clinical than GJ.

If the question is seeking an opinion without comparison to GJ, then it's because Nketiah is not suited (yet) to playing against a low block. The same reason has affected all our attackers. Yesterday he was competing for aerial balls with Konsa and Mings who are taller than him. Against City he had no space to run into, and missed two headers. He refers to run into balls or to tap in. He is not as clinical as GJ.

Another angle. What I am yet to see discussed in all permutations is the extent to which rigging still has an impact on elections.

In other words, by how much percentage can a sitting Governor influence the outcome of elections in his state.

Say in the last election, they said no voting except by PVC card reader, then card reader started breaking down in remote locations all round the country and INEC allowed them to use paper ballot and write result, and some thugs just intimidate some polling booth, pay all agents and INEC staff on ground and write result. To what extent can Governors still "deliver" in modern elections using these means? If this is still significant, then LP has no hope at all.
The only way to rig is to buy vote (assuming that is classified as rigging).

1. No BVAS no election. If the BVAS didn't work, go and collect another one. If that one didn't work, no election.

2. If you're not accredited, you can not and will not vote. Accreditation and voting takes place simultaneously.

3. Results are written and transmitted immediately after elections before all observers at the polling unit. Nothing like collation centre.

4. Snatching ballot box is meaningless. The unit will be automatically cancelled. Only if need be will it be rescheduled. That's if the cancelled units can affect the overall outcome of the elections.

Lol .. You can claim you like his style of play but anyone who followed our conversation then know that you don't really do. You that claimed Jesus plays exactly like Laca and predicted that Nketiah might bench him?

Just dey play
Let me make it clear so that if you want to quote me, it won't be difficult for you.

I prefer Gj scoring goals. Which means I prefer that he stays in the box, let others do the build up. I love my strikers scoring many goals.

But I am also OK with him dropping deep if that would mean we win games. For example, I stated here that I wished we had him against teams defending in a low block. Nketiah was poor against low blocks of Everton and Brentford. Jesus would have broken them down.

What this means is that I appreciate what he does, dropping deep (I call it sacrifice). But I prefer he focuses more on goals.

So you still think Nketiah is more clinical than GJ?

The way you don dey talk now, someone would think you were never against Jesus style of play from beginning.

Continuuuu!!
Your over smartness was what Roland complained about.

If I say I prefer Akara to moimoi, that does not mean I said I hate moimoi.

I will never be tired of explaining myself to you until you get my point.

Someone rightly mentioned that GJ was not getting enough goals being the main striker. My response was that it was because of his style of play. That doesn't mean I didn't like the style. I only gave an explanation as to why he will not score many goals. I even said that though he doesn't get goals, he makes others score. That he sacrifices his goals for the benefit of other teammates.

You were the one who said GJ was not a good finisher. You said that he gets more chances that every other player, but misses them. You said Nketiah is a better striker.

Didn't you?
