My Strong 4955b has been off for quite a while.

It was on Yayi TV position before I abandoned it.

Today I tried booting it and saw it had zero signal.

I've tried changing the LNB, tried changing the cable. No difference


Leads me to conclude it must be the decoder


Any tips please or is it finally dead?


This 4955b is the worst decoder I've ever had the misfortune of buying

Sabitzer looks like he will be joining Spuds. There seems to be a mutual interest between Spuds/ Sabitzer and RB Leipzig.

Isco-Another Madrid flop looking to get paid.

Erikson- May struggle with Arteta’s style

Buendia is one I am hoping we take a shot at.

kodded:
what about £15million for buendia

WaytoGo:
That should be Ts.tv

If for anything the last 2 games further buttresses my point that Gabriel’s signing wasn’t a necessity, and we didn’t prioritize properly in that TW.

You can argue I won’t answer you, cos in the voice of legendary pa Elampiro “una no know ball”.

mostob:
This is an headache o.

Pablo Mari or Gabriel Maghalles..

Who do you think is better?

Auba will never agree to be a sub. I heard he left the stadium less than 5 minutes after the match against Chelsea.

mostob:
Auba hasn’t been the same since Boseman
Chadwick died on Aug 28.

so much pace and technique in that front 4....lets go gunners

modified: add teireny and bellerin and our pace will be off the chat. cant wait for partey to be back so that the midfiled will be balanced

BlueRayDick:
While it may sound cool having a youthful team full of live and energy, I will advise Arteta applies caution and not parade a totally young and less experienced team going forward.

I mean it's cool seeing what dem Azeez, Balogun, Smith-Rowe, Martineli et al cam do with the ball on a good day, but playing all of them at the same time in a match other than Europa or F.A cup may not end well. I will not like to imagine a match where Yeri Mina will be clamping down on Balogun upfront, Decoure and Allan bullying Smith-Rowe and Azeez in midfield.....while Domino Claivert-Lewin is somewhere is our half waiting to wreak havoc along with Richalison. We may have a repeat of Wenger days in our hands when we do lose to physically superior teams.


I will advise the youngies are mixed with the oldies to give the team a balance. For example Azeez and Balogun should be given more playing time in the Europa league for them to gain much match confidence while Smith-Rowe should be given more playing time in the league. From there the duo of Azeez and Balogun based on their performance and confidence level should then be considered for early subs in EPL matches when we have a goal or two advantage.

That way we can then think of doing away with some oldies in the long run.

so it has been confirmed? Chai!

100% and co-signed. Nothing to add, nothing to subtract

Jencejyde:
Quite an interesting discuss. From a player and Coaches perspective especially at the highest level. The key thing here is CONSISTENCY and not time. Players can blossom early or later but for you to be considered a starter and a key component of your team sentiments and favoritism aside, you must be consistent with quality performances.

I would not write off any of Nketiah of Willock but would be seriously worried that a martinelli who was good for us before going out for a year is now back again and delivering consistent performances more than the other two . It's worrying and honestly you would expect more from them. Balogun played two games for us but what he showed in two games is more than what Willock and eddyy have shown in so many games.

They should also be reminded that they are professionals with the privilege of playing in the first team and as such the bar has been raised with no excuses. Look as Ansi at Barca before he got injured. Even when messi was not playing that boy made the team look comfortable and was Consistent. Hardly does he have a bad game.

This needs to change quickly for eddy and Willock to convince everyone that they deserve their place in that squad else drastic decisions need to be taken. Time is of the essence and they are not getting younger too

pazienza:
There is no guarantee Balogun will become a star outside Arsenal. How many players have left Arsenal in recent times and become big thereafter? Gnabry and who else?
Chuba Akpom couldn't wait and left, where is him now, Benik Afobe is in Portugal unknown team, Amaechi that rejected Arsenal deal and decided to go to Bundesliga has struggled there and I heard he is currently on loan at league 1 from his Germany team.

Balogun will be stupid if he allows his agent ruin his career. All agents want players to move club because transfers are cash cows for them.

Balogun has a clear path to Arsenal first team. Lacazette has not aged well and will be entering the last year of his contract come this summer. Arsenal has no plans of renewing his contract and would look to move him on come summer.

Auba is also aging and going to decline. Jules who could even be a better striker than Balogun at least according to those who watch our youth teams renewed his contract this summer and pushed for a loan move to a league 1 team where he is currently doing well. That's a young boy who understands that success takes a process.

If Balogun wouldn't renew, Arsenal should let him go. If he becomes next Messi, good for him.

Fkforyou:
On the contrary no. @Spy360.

Nketiah is not showing any signs of improvement or the desire to improve. Same as willock.

It shows in his game. Let me tell you something, I was doubtful of Martenelli, I thought he was a flash in the pan, but then I saw his movements of the ball, his passion, his concentration and spirit, I became a little bit convinced, then, he went on injury and I was like that’s it, he is done. We are going to be making excuses for him that it’s because of the injury bla bla bla and that’s all we will ever hear about Martinelli, but guess what, I was absolutely wrong about him and right for giving him a 50:50 chance.

As for Bukayo, I’ve always wondered what Roland saw in him, like I didn’t really get the hype about him. I remember Roland17 bragging about seeing his prospects since when he was in our youth team, guess what, Saka has been my best player since our deep in form, I currently rate his importance to the team more than Aubameyang, I started being impressed with him from our Man City game, and so far, hasn’t disappointed me. same with Tierney, those guys dey give me joy. They put in a 100, week in, week out.

Now compare them to the likes of Willock and Nketiah. When last were you impressed by them. Forget about the goals they score in our Europa match’s with small teams. I mean an important match where they put in an impressive performance. Just name it.

Jodera:
All is just needed is for Arteta to convince him that he'll start seeing mins from next season with opportunity to get first team if he performs well. I mean it's just nketiah that's a 2nd striker, so he can keep the competition open between both of them

If he allows balogun leaves, he's allowing potential £50-80m to leave, cos that's what we'll need to potentially fill that cf position in a year or two. So the earlier Arteta sees what we're seeing, the better.

kodded:
nketiah can not make it here, his ceiling is very low compare to these guys. I expect arsenal to cash in on him before he ends up like wellbeck for us

kodded:
add balogun infront and we have gotten ourselves a very tasty front 4 that will last us for upto 15 years atleast








I hope this performance against chelasea will proove to arteta that the future is now

Jodera:
Lol. You said we've wingers na.

What I just wanted to say is if we had a good 10, with a stupid winger like willian or pepe, our attack will still be dead cos they inhibit attack very much. To me, the tide turned much during the removal of martinelli IMO.


I remember a highlight in the 2nd half where martinelli dropped deep in the midfield, played a quick pass to Tierney and turned almost immediately, sprinting towards Chelsea's goal, and then countered with the ball. On reaching the box, Tierney squared the ball back for martinelli who steadied himself and fired a shot for Mendy to make a save.

When that happened, I almost cried for joy. I'm like "Gosh, see what we've been missing since". See happiness in me

Mehn, all these Senior players don do me(us) strong thing I swear

Akinbahm:
No vex oooh mention two of your wingers who's creative and creates fear in opposition biko dont name Saka & Martinelli cause they are to be eased in...

Akinbahm:
Continuous Attack eases off pressure away for defenders.

patrickmuf:
Arteta has to trsut the likes of Mari, ESR, Martinelli etc just same way he shouldn't make the mistake of relegating the bigger boys to the background. There should be a balance somewhere...

Jencejyde:
IMHO it was not a case of attacking midfield, it was just pure desire and attitude from saka martinelli and esr. Immediately they were subbed the desire and hardwork was missing again.

Honestly they need to take a cue from the workrate of martinelli and saka especially plus like someone said, it rubbed off lacazete who also has a good game . His pressing also nearly resulted in a goal.

What they need to do is build on this Attitude. Pepe was disappointing to think he has a huge tag on him and he completely offered no threat when called upon.

Time is running out nd Arteta must be ruthless like I have always said and drop anyone who is not ready to bust a gut. January is not far off and if we can get a quality am ,hopefully we should start gaining more momentum

fredoooooo:
Oga abeg stay on your lane, leave me and Roland abeg ...

Jodera:
who be the wingers?
Pray tell... What did pepe play wen he came on. Did you watch were Tierney was motioning for him to make a run so that he will lay him a through ball? Aside that, what meaningful thing did pepe do??

See if you watch this game eh, you'll see that the difference between martinelli and Pepe/willian is as clear as night and day. Dem no near martinelli at all.


As for the bolded... You don start again abi

Roland17:
Thank God for COVID precaution if not we would have seen Willian/Luiz.

Jodera:
One thing or lesson this game taught me is that we lacked forwards (wingers) or attack all season.
We created chances upon chances as normal arsenal would have created and also took purposeful shots like a top team. The midfield played well and even the defence wasn't under undue pressure cos the forwards were great. Tierney had a great game and so was xhaka who had an OK game (bar the free kick)

Just imagine what saka, martinelli, ESR were doing in that front. It even rubbed off on lacazette and he played a very good game. We were always on the front foot and the front press was great. No wonder Chelsea never had a shot on target (the closest they had was mason free kick that struck the bar)

Now what happened... We introduced willock and Pepe for Esr and martinelli, then our attack stopped. Chelsea increased their attack and our defence was under undue pressure. We now receiving shot on goal and on target. Not only did we concede a goal but also caused a penalty. We might have drawn the game if not for Leno save. All these happened just because our 2/4 of our attack was off.


This game typically tells us what we've been suffering this season and what we needed to correct. Come to think of it, how many cross and insha Allah we did today.?

If after today's game and Arteta still sticks to Willian and Pepe, then he's really not serious


Coyg!!

Roland we don dash una 3 points , atleast we are good senior brother , we no wan make una go relegation
