Realtord43:
Is our defense now better since we won without conceding?

This is for those that always have a say anytime we concede a goal

Its a terrible Spurs team, though this is exactly what we need. Concede less, while scoring. It's as simple as that.

We scored the same number of goal against Sunderland and Spurs. We went home with zero points against Sunderland but 3 points today.

What do you think was the difference?

Emaprince:
He was unlucky though.

The spurs keeper did well and was lucky to have the balls hit him.

That injury time miss wouldnhave been brillliant cos JP placed it well, but the stretching leg of the keeper stooped it.

It's the keeper's hand actually that saved that last chance.

Omor, the unlucky too much today.

JP wey I know suppose comfortably get at least hattrick plus one goal on top today.

JP what happened? Abeg rediscover your CWC form biko nu.

A confident JP could have scored that Gittens miss instead of looking for assist.

3 point lane sha... We move.

Unlimited22:
I dunno how they saw that and said it wasn't serious foul play

I was 100 percent calm that I'll see a red card. 100 percent!

MorataFC:
it was a red card

EPL refs!

nateevs:
PL Match Centre calling that "not serious foul play"

Madness!

Really? Wow!

nateevs:
I don't understand how you don't understand the simple theory..... We are supposed to score but not supposed to concede.

Do you remotely think he will see your point even if you explain in a million years?

Can someone please explain to me why that challenge on James is not a red card, even after review?

Like play like play Man United don turn the corner... No cup distractions. Watch them gun for EPL if Arsenal loose guard..

drisham:
Person wey never experience this thing go think say na lie


Gusto had not yet made the backpass when people started shouting goal for Bayern

Very annoying thing

I swear

Chelsea was still camped in Sunderland half when one guy in my front hissed and shouted that Sunderland have scored

This is in a lounge o, not viewing centre sef... Lol.

BlueRayDick:
Is there an element of truth in what he's saying or his opinion is far from the true picture of things in present naija context?

His description of those viewing centres is extreme. Lol.

Watching football is more enjoyable when there is a crowd arguing and shouting at the top of their voices .. The adrenaline and loud roar of "gooooooooooaal" has this feeling that is second to none... And you can't experience it in the comfort of your sitting room.

swiz123:
Shocking submission. 4 3 3 has 4 defenders, 3 midfielders, 2 wingers and one striker. You can call the front 3 forwards if you like and that will be correct but calling them strikers is mischievous.

You suppose don pass this level na. I would rather believe this is just agenda than imagine this is your football knowledge.

Was Anelka a winger when he was playing beside Drogba in a 4-3-3?

JP and Delap have played together this season with Palmer or Neto on the right. Which of the is a winger, JP or Delap?

It's interesting you ignored the 4-4-2 example. When Sheva was playing alongside Drogba, were they both number 9s?

swiz123:
But he clearly called him a striker here.

3 front players in a 4-3-3 are strikers.
2 front players in a 4-4-2 are strikers.

In all these, there is always a one number 9 position in the line up.

Lordfalcao is talking of number 9,not just strikers.

We used to play Anelka, Drogba, Malouda/Kalou in a 4-3-3... Are they not all strikers? But we know who the number 9 is.

lordfalcao:
These players have a rubbish passion for red card.

Two yellow cards in 7 minutes

This is exactly how he came in against Flamengo and collected red card also, and cost us that match. Nonsense player. That Senegalese is cursed!

Why didn't Maresca use Delap instead? Rubbish coach.

I spit on this defence!

Tufia!

popizaino:
Why won't he apologize after so many threats coming from people like you who thinks thzt officiating was biased.

See the video again to remove every doubt you had concerning thr game.

He apologised in 2019. The game was played 2009. 10 years! So the threat continued for 10 years?

I don't know why I'm replying you sef.

raumdeuter:
Its obvious he made errors like giving Abidal a red card for a non contact on Anelka

What are the other errors?

popizaino:
If you think Barcelona robbed us in 2009,here is a video for you to have a rethink.

You are terrible.

The ref himself has come out to apologise for his performance that night. Everyone has moved on, but somehow, Popizaino from nowhere believes the ref was correct and Chelsea fans accused him wrongly.

I don't blame the person asking you if you are a Chelsea fan.

Liverpool scored more goals than Arsenal. Liverpool went home with 0 points. Arsenal 3 points.

Sorry na your name.

raumdeuter:
That Leeds defender don scatter my game plan. My opponent got 13points from him

I just hope I will recover that lead. Fingers crossed.

Unlimited22:
All we said was we need to balance both

We can't be leaking goals like my babe after we've not seen each other in three months


And I became public enemy number one.

Balance attacking prowess and defensive Steel and you will have a very very fierce unit. That's all I said.

You sure say na you be the public enemy number one?

Emaprince:
chelsea defence na tozuo

I just hope Cucurella go get attacking points now.

My opponent dey lead me with that Leeds defender wey score yesterday.

iamoyindamola:
Same here, I will use am buy Isidor or Tiago
Low budget with lesser risk

We think alike. Na the two guys wey I dey eye.. This Isidor dey worry sha.

Emaprince:
The way I see it, the goals will come defence...chalobah likely to score.

Clean sheet wiped. I have Cucurella.
