no mind spy
I agree with you on Nketiah. He was part of why yesterday's match was funny to me. Baba will run to the wing, receive pass then cut in through Zouma's toro and shoot
He repeated it thrice yesterday...even ESR tried it once but bro Lokoja shoot way outside the stadium
One mind is telling me we should allow Nketiah to stay, another mind is telling me all na fuse...you know how our players normally improve anytime contract negotiation is around na...

mostob:
Exactly...apart from all this playing from the back stuff, Holding seems to be our best defender. Na from his younger days baba don dey handle all those bullish strikers
Costa, Lukaku et al.... I was not worried when Moyes brought in Antonio yesterday... General Holding will always keep him in check

mostob:
Saliba will have to show he is better than Holding. This team needs Holding next season

Roland17:
Our games against Westham are usually tough, first because it is a London rivalry and secondly, they have a decent squad with an experienced manager who can make things difficult. The moment I saw the strong line up, I knew it would be a tight game.

BlueRayDick:
Tomiyasu is fully back. Martinelli also back in the starting lineup .

Holding in place of Ben white

Roland17:
Ok…I like your idea of giving one or both of Patino/ Azzez understudy minutes with the first team next season. Personally for me, it would be Patino because he has caught up with Azzez and is a more creative and dominant player from deep. He may just need good cover though.

We need to invest heavily on our midfield and attack especially if we clinch top 4. Clinching top 4 makes us more attractive but I hope we can get the players with the right mentality about winning.

Lush100:
I don't rate oshimen.
I prefer we buy gabriel Jesus and maybe another striker especially one that is good at heading.
Laca should go.
Martinelli and balogun should learn the CF role.
Nketiah could stay.
Bring Saliba back, play 3 at the back when needed.
Keep Rob Holding.
Find another partner for T.Partey we can try Elneny and Partey or buy this brazilian midfielder we want to buy do he can partner Partey.
Xhaka should be a squad player or sell and keep Elneny
Pepe can be sold.
Mari, Torerria, Guendozi sold.
Learn to take out Partey after 65 minutes.
This is assuming we get the UCL spot.
We can buy Gnarbi too.

50d33q:
I don't like the idea of buying players from another league especially CF that will struggle to adapt
Moreover I don't really rate osihmeh maybe cause he's Nigerian I will take 2 CF plus balogun making 3
Nketiah and lacazette should go we still have midfield to settle
Xhaka must go or be bench from next season

constant1960:
Is still same price just the year that changed

50d33q:
He will come because halaand is going to city and he won't like to be on bench especially when WC is around the corner
Roland17 this guy have been on different beast mode since the last time we spoke about him I think we should go all out for him then we get ivan Toney as backup if nketiah leave with balogun as under study

BlueRayDick:
Somewhere in Nigeria Spy365 wants Jodera to bow down and worship him for this revelation he received before flesh and blood revealed it to Arteta

Kbs468:
Ofcourse Yes I did. But forget it as that was one in a million performance by Lehmann back then as we have never had any goalkeeper that is as consistent as David Seaman Honestly.

Else All our former Goalkeepers are crap except for Petr cech because of his previous performance for Chelsea and that was why we never do well in Europe

But I believe that if we qualify for champions league and Aaron Ramsdale is being exposed further, he would certainly come out good in the Long run towards becoming the BEST GOALKEEPER WE HAVE EVER HAD

Jodera:
Lol, Ramsdale isn't even a legend yet and they are comparing him to an arsenal legend?

O wrong nao

daveP:
Choosing two of 4, especially if we are back to Ucl.

Nunez
Osimhen
Martinez
Tammy



Then there is Gabriel Jesus too.

This transfer window looks promising. I hope its not regular regular chase till final day of window then one carpenter will hold jersey dey smile.

Roland17:
Lehman all the way and twice a day for right now.

Man was impossible to play against in his prime!

Kbs468:
[b]Well, I think we need much more than 9 points out of a possible 15 of the 5 remaining fixtures actually.

2 favourable home matches vs Leeds united and Everton and 3 away vs West Ham, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle united

Even our home fixture, especially vs Everton is dicy before of their relegation battle and we don't usually have it easy with relegation threatened teams

The best way out for us is to Win Both home fixtures vs Leeds united and Everton as well as the away game vs Newcastle while we win or draw first with West Ham giving us atleast 10 points plus our present 2 points lead over Tottenham Hotspur.

That should be enough to overcome them once and for all (13 points out of 17) if we equally avoid defeat at the hands of Tottenham too



Since Tottenham Hotspur have 2 favourable home matches vs Leicester city and Burnley with an additional favourable away match vs Norwich -That is 9 points out of their 5 remaining fixtures

Away vs Liverpool certainly won't fetch them more than 1 point at most if not total loss and that would make it 10 points

Home fixture vs Arsenal? -we pray it doesn't end in a loss for Us so that should we draw them, then they would have (10+1) 11 points which won't be enough to surpass our own 13 points haul from the earlier analysis above

However and in order to be safe, we should avoid defeat at the hands of west Ham while also praying that Tottenham loses vs Liverpool away at Anfield and Even succumb vs Leicester city first come next weekend[/b]

50d33q:
Honestly I have no idea
But I will prefer he don't play for us this season again so that he can rest.
Same with Tomi and Tierney, if we can stamp the 4th place with few matches to go, I will prefer arteta stop using the top performers again till preseason

50d33q:
Since partey decided to expose our defence with his injury, I hope we score first and bring in holding to close shop as this method have been effective

Jodera:
Nketiah's game ystdy was great. I love the way he ran the channels aside linking up well with his Midfielders and wingers. I'm glad he finally fought for his shirt even though I doubted he wasn't ready. I just hope he keeps it up. He may save us money from signing two top strikers.

Our defence was indeed shaky yesterday. I don't know if it's just me but I noticed our defence was just jittery unlike what I normally know it as. Just thankful that man u attack weren't able to capitalise as well as element of luck on our side (penalty miss) as well as Ronaldo's marginal offside call.

Tavarez needs to get his acts right. Grateful for his goal as it gave us the much needed advantage at the start of the game, but he needs to work on his decision making most times. Aside his decision making being poor yesterday, he was erratic both in his tackles and positioning. Thank goodness it was Elanga and not a deadly and experienced winger he faced ystdy cos we would have been duly punished

50d33q:
Roland17 look at West ham line up
That's exactly what I am expecting against us unless they finish off Frankfurt which I doubt

daveP:
In the second half he went dark. Elneny controlled things for the rest of the 20mins. Good MOTM for him, but that doesn't mean he didn't go dark.

50d33q:
West ham are still in Europe they may fancy their chances of winning
So they should manage their squad since top4 is not possible on the long run
I am concern about spuds and Newcastle

Roland17:
Omo our next fixtures na die eh..Make dis guys no give me hope come fall hand oh

Westham
Leeds
Spuds
Newcastle
Everton

daveP:
Epl go humble you. Chai. I feel for Ragnick.

Na Ten Hag i pity pass. Cos if he mess up, Pochetino dey. Na Poch Man U need.


Elneny is the motm.


How ESR and Odegaard disappear in such games need be studied. Nketiah had to come do markings where ESR should be,while Odegaard just went dark.


We move.


Nobody on here thought we'd have 6points vs Chelsea and Man U in 6days. Nobody. Lets get this going. Twill be good for chilly pepper to see UCL football this time. His co-mates are already far ahead on appearances. Nice game. Need more of such Xhaka volleys. Looks like he's given more freedom lately by Arteta. Normally he won't even be there.

Roland17:
I no want... Fredoooooo no fit take wetin him dey give. Small trolling, him go vess begin misyarn..e too get hot temper, give am @Sod09, I no dey like wahala.

Roland17:
See that mama dey force her pikin to use jacket cover her United jersey

Spy360:
