Even a dead clock is correct once in a day so what's your point exactly?

Zouma and rudiger no difference for magbon level. Considering the fact that Rudiger is older with plenty f00lishness for him body, I go pick zouma ahead of him right now walahi

I like what you did there.

Maybe by next week you will pick him ahead of Zouma. Maybe by next season you will pick him ahead of VVD.

diggz:
Rudiger na kponkpon defender from day one guy. No need for plenty analysis.

No too much analysis guy.

Rudiger is a rock solid defender on his day.

And I never said he was better than VVD in that post. Go read again what I said.

airmark:
Sorry, not the same. Even when he wasn't injured at Roma i knew how he played his kpon kpon football, all power, no brain. Even in his first season with us, someone dropped a link showing all his school boy's mistakes here. So it's not about injury.

Belotti that outscored your Morata when both played in the league and went on to bang more goals that caught the eyes of big clubs, in his last season, before the injury. Don't compare both.

VVD at Chelsea would bench Rudiger, every matchday.

I don't want to drop gifs to back my point yet, i don't want you to run away as usual.

When did I post that comment that you dug up? Before or after Rudiger's injury?

So it is only Bellotti that is allowed to suffer a dip in form after injury?

raumdeuter:
Why is Chelsea not chasing Belotti for 100m

Abi he still dey relapse

Airmark come and answer. Why are we going for 32year old Cavani instead of a younger hot striker, Bellotti?

airmark:
I remember arguing with you.

The gap in quality between your Rudiger and VVD, is like Ikoyi and Mile 12.

I watched VVD against United and couldnt but curse those that stopped Conte from getting him.

If the player under review was Bellotti, you will start telling me how he spent 18 years out injured. Now you will not apply same for Rudiger. See your life?

Abi you want me to call postdigger to come and dig out all the ridiculous excuses you keep giving for Bellotti's dip in form.

Oya complete this sentence

What is good for the goose......

airmark:
I'm not postdigger o. That one is a pro.

Mehn that post wey you dig enter well well

Airmark, is postdigger your alternate moniker?

Eruditor:
Read my last 2 posts.

You don't know what weedtaker is asking so just sit this one out. You hear?

SMH.

Eruditor:
It is a pity. You butted into a conversation you don't even understand.

There is nothing like "better that season". Weedtaker was trying to argue that since Mou's team got 100 points they should be regarded as the best La Liga team over Pep's Barca team. I simply pointed out to him that the very same TEAM also got 100 points but then outdid that same RM team twice in 3 seasons which makes them effectively better.

I'm not even concerned about the genesis of your conversation with him.

This is the question I'm interested in, and I want to see your answer.

weedtaker:
So Jose's madrid that broke the La liga points record is better than peps barca?

Which season did Mou break La Liga points record? 2011-12.

Who was Barca's coach then? Pep.

So is Mou's Madrid better than Pep's Barca in 2011-12? That's what I believe weedtaker wants to know. And I'm interested to know too...

nipeks001:
It should be used for offside but there should be a negligible margin of error.

The rule is a player shouldn't be behind the last opposition player as at WHEN THE BALL WAS KICKED. Now You can't be making offside calls because a player's nose is in an offside position when you can make like 3 frames of "when the ball was kicked".

"When the ball was kicked" is not 100% objective, hence a wrong call might actually be made when your nose is accused of being in an offside position depending on the frame being used to judge the situation.

For me it should be used, but there should be a negilible distance due to the margin of error caused by the frames used.

Thanks for bringing this thought into writing. Exactly what I have in mind when I mentioned an atom of human error.

You can't get this thing 100% perfectly correct.

Eruditor:
Smh. What are you on about?

Pep's barca has done 99 pts (2009/10) and 100 pts (2012/13).
Mou's RM did 100 pts (2011/12).

Since both have the same record achievement the only way we can now distinguish them will be if they faced themselves or else it will become subjective. Luckily they did. That Barca won 2 titles compared to the RM that got one when they battled each other in 3 seasons.

Verdict: Barca was better even though not by much.

In 2011-12, Mou was coaching Madrid and Pep was Barca's coach.

Which team is better that season? That's the question.

I'm not the type to go back and forth with you. Don't bring 3 seasons into the discussion. The question is for a particular season.

If you can't answer this question directly, then don't bother to reply my quote. I'll take it that Mou's Madrid was better afterall...

nateevs:
You keep missing the point. VAR was brought in to improve the accuracy of officials. But your point seem to question why have any officials at all?

You agree that VAR should be used to verify a penalty decision that may already have been decided by a Referee but I don't see you asking why bother having a Referee? So of what significance is this question with the Linesmen?

You will agree it's just a sentimental opinion, not a factual one.

You are the one not getting the point here.

Penalty decision by a referee and offside decision by a linesman are very defferent.

A referee can miss something in a twinkling of an eye based on his positioning when the incident happened in Th box. Maybe another player blocked his view that very moment or from the angle he is that very moment, the player's body blocked him, or he may not be sure if the tackle happened inside the box or outside etc etc... VAR can assist him then.

But a linesman's positioning generally allows him to make a better decision in an offside call. From his position, he can clearly see who is offside and who is not.

And don't get me wrong. I don't like VAR in football generally. My opinion is its ruining the game. BUT IF IT MUST BE USED, THEN USE IT MORE ON PENALTY DECISIONS, NOT OFFSIDE CALLS.

Especially in EPL, the application of VAR is rubbish. More than half of a season now and no referee has used the pitch side monitor. Why?

I'm sure those sports analysts that are against VAR too are not sentimental.

nateevs:
There's no haba in this. Either the decision is correct or not.
A second Forest offside has just been correctly awarded. According to what you are saying, Forest should have had a second goal?

It was an obvious offside. Linesman even flagged it.

That's why I asked earlier, what's the job of a linesman? If the officials don't trust linesman decision, let them just scrape them.

He flagged offside and they still had to confirm from VAR. That means linesmen are useless.

timbros:
Lamptey and James in the pitch at the same time.

James playing a more attacking role now.

Actually Lamptey is in front of James

Lamptey and James in the pitch at the same time.

James playing a more attacking role now.

nateevs:
But why should it be used for Penalty situations and not offside? Why don't we leave Penalty situations to human error as well? It's part of the game isn't it? There is no data to show also that it takes longer to resolve Penalty situations using VAR than it does for offside, so I am not sure what the point is.

VAR improves the accuracy of decisions in the game. I don't know what there is such resistance to it.

Much better if VAR is not used entirely sef.

Did you watch Aston Villa match mid week vs who sef, that Grealish goal that was cancelled?

Someone's tip of boot was offside, it was not blown until that attack is recycled and crossed in again. (not less than 1 minute have passed) and Grealish nodded the cross in only for VAR to go all the way back and cancel the goal and award offside.

Haba...

obainojazz:
My bad... I only looked at hidden and the number of assists.. Then hazard entered my head.

Wetin raumdeuter don do for this section, no be small..

nateevs:
It was the right decision, even if less than an inch.
And that's the most important thing isn't it?

Without VAR there, they get a penalty, perhaps 1-1 and it's a different game.
Should we let that happen, because we want to celebrate a goal well?

Using VAR in offside decisions just no follow. That atom of human error is part of the game.

What is the linesman job on that touchline? If they can't trust the linesman decision in offside situations, they should as well scrape them.

IMO VAR should be used in penalty decisions but not offside.

Why are the fans booing Dawson? Na the Spurs rivalry?

obainojazz:
Wait.. Hazard has played up to 51 matches

"senior colleague"....

timbros:
Look at how long it took to line and measure that offside incident.

One cannot even celebrate a goal or penalty again.

That's not even up to a an inch offside!

I just no fit hold myself again.....

nateevs:
How?

Look at how long it took to line and measure that offside incident.

One cannot even celebrate a goal or penalty again.

That's not even up to a an inch offside!

50th Anniversary celebration

1st FA cup win celebration.

VAR is killing this game!

Spits...

Eruditor:
No.

Because that barca team won the league 2 times to Mourinho's one time in 3 seasons.

Because that Barca got 99pts and later equalled the same 100pts that Jose's RM had.

Oga, why the bolded? Simple question is...

weedtaker:
So Jose's madrid that broke the La liga points record is better than peps barca?

Did Mou broke the La Liga points record 3 seasons to 2011-12 season? Why referencing Barca's trophy win of two seasons ago just to answer a 2011-12 question? Na wao...

Was Jose Madrid of 2011-12 that broke the La Liga points record better than Pep's 2011-12 Barca? That's the question...

raumdeuter:
Why then did your team sign Pulisic or you are Bayern? Kagawa Mikitaryan Sahin Gundogan Aubameyang Sokratis are also in Bayern now

Is it one club that bought all these players you listed?

raumdeuter:
What is your guess? Is Dortmund getting stronger when your team bought Pulisic, or when Aubameyang Sokratis and Rosicky were lost to Arsenal or when Kagawa and Mikitaryan were lost to Man Utd?

BVB is Bayern's feeder team and the board is not happy about that. That is why they want to stop selling players to Bayern.

You know that. But I don't expect you to accept it publicly.

Congrats again for Haaland signing.

raumdeuter:
Did you know that Hummels went from Bayern to Dortmund same with Sebastian Rode

Maybe we need to remind you of where Kagawa went to or Sahin

You even mentioned Helmer why not Tomas Rosicky, Sokratis, Subotic, Blazykowski

So every club can buy players from Dortmund buy Bayern must not

There is a reason why BVB board had an internal meeting and decided never to sell players to Bayern again...

https://www.sportbible.com/football/transfers-rivalries-borussia-dortmund-will-no-longer-sell-players-to-rivals-bayern-munich-20191227.amp.html

Why Bayern? Why not Barca, Chelsea, Man Utd, Man City etc? Why Bayern? Your guess is as good as mine...

KingAzubuike:
So the header he placed in the hands of Leno wasn't a sitter right? Or maybe your own definition of sitter is one on one situations. If you miss a clear scoring opportunity with no pressure from opposition defenders at all, my friend you missed a sitter. Or didn't you see auba for arsenal's first goal? And his can't really be classified as a sitter sef coz he was under pressure from Emerson.

So that one header is the "several sitters" abi?

And to use Auba as an example of one who utilise his chances is just hilarious. Aubameyang!

raumdeuter:
Shebi Pulisic dey Bayern now

Just Like Aubameyang Mikitaryan Gundogan and Dembele sef dey

Christian Pulisic: Dortmund to Chelsea
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang: Dortmund to Arsenal
Henrikh Mkhitaryan: Dortmund to Man Utd
Ikay Gundogan: Dortmund to Man City
Ousmane Dembele: Dortmund to Barcelona.

5 players who left Dortmund to five different clubs.

Now check out the list below...

Mats Hummels: Dortmund to Bayern
Robert Lewandowski: Dortmund to Bayern
Mario Gotze: Dortmund to Bayern
Torsten Frings: Dortmund to Bayern
Thomas Helmer: Dortmund to Bayern

5 players who left Dortmund to one club.

Dortmund is your feeder team. You walk in, poach select any player, and walk out.

It's only a matter of time, Erling Braut Håland will join the list.

KingAzubuike:
Morata and giroud under lampard would have doubled that figure by now.

How can you be comfortable with a toothpick legged striker , hair like Medusa from clash of the Titans with horrible gameplay and poor finishing ability. He missed several sitters yesterday and could have easily missed the last had Leno closed his legs. I don't want to believe sloting the ball inside Leno's "kolo" was premeditated.. Dude is not clinical and the boy I'm seeing here doesn't have the potential to improve. Even in football manager he gets useless after year 2020 and returns back to the championship. Those guys surely predicted well. We deserve better.

In football terms, do you actually know what "sitter" is? Or you just like throwing words around?

And what's the meaning of that bolded?

..... doesn't have the potential to improve..... Imagine yarn!

And to think two people actually like this post

afrodoc2:
But Dortmund is your feeder team na. They are just grooming Haaland for una.

Exactly.
