Alisson made a grave error in that Lingard goal. The blame is on him no doubt...

BUT

We have VVD right there in the scene (his positioning is top notch), why didn't he mop up?

The least I expect from Voltron is to correct his GK error....thats what world best defenders do.

Did i tell you i mentioned 5 key areas earlier? I said Rudiger was better only in athleticism and that was one out of many other aspects Van dijk spanked him. I only replied to your post below.
You mentioned athleticism and positioning in one breath and in the next, you said Rudiger edge in only 1 out of 5 key areas.... Isn't that contradictory?

With VVD it seem Liverpool are using three CBs and two full backs.
And no 'keeper?

Where was the two CBs when Alisson and Gomez made a double goal line clearance against Everton? I need you to watch that clip again. Focus your eye on VVD in that clip.

VVD the positional master should thank Mahrez for Ramos~ing that PK which earned them a point.

Just go a few pages back and see tons of gifs raumdeuter posted about VVD. He is just another very good CB. Nothing special.

That's the difference between me and some aparisports pundits. I won't give a pass for a player for having edge in 1 out of like 5 key areas.



You said they were close. That's a fat lie.
5 key areas? Which 5 key areas did you mention?

Sentiment inside bro. Rudiger has actually improved from the jawando one i saw in Roma. But saying the difference is not much between him and VVD, you were being economical with the truth. I doubt if you actually know how to rate great cbs. The only thing Rudiger has over him, is athleticism, which Van Dijk covers with better positioning.
Where are the 5 key areas you mentioned here?

Rudiger is good but sometimes lack positional sense, he started his career as RB tho. VVD is better than him, forget argument.
So VVD don't sometimes lack positional sense?

And where did I argue that Rudiger is better?

Sentiments Dey blind some people. VVD is just too good of a CB, he is a good leader as well. With that guy in our CB now we would’ve gotten another JT in terms of leadership. The guy reading of the game is top notch, he is two in one in Liverpool back line.
So the other remaining players in that backline is three in four?

PFA to me. It even covers all the major divisions in the land.



Let me know your view, compared to other cbs in epl. Who are better than him in your eyes?
Don't get me wrong, VVD is a very good CB who I'd even love to be in my team. But the hype is over too much. He get more credits than he deserves. Since the debate of VVD started in this thread, I have cool down and watched him. He is just a very good CB, nothing more.

Alisson and other defenders have contributed as much as VVD in that Liverpool backline but all we get to read here is VVD VVD VVD.... The hype is too much.

Sentiment aside, the difference between VVD and our own Rudiger isn't much.

Raumdeuter the referee himself that night, Tom Henning Ovrebo, have conceded his mistakes that night. I don't know why you are trying to defend his decisions.

OK if he got Abidal decision wrong (one decision), what of 4 or 5 decisions that went against Chelsea?

All this one you're doing is semantics, and I'm not here for that.

If somebody steals Chalobah's medal today, and they catch the person tommorow - How does Chalobah identify his medal?

His name is not on the medal. The FA don't care about the individuals because the medal is for the team. It's then up to the team to distribute how they want.

Mourinho threw away his medal and somebody picked and sold it for 18k. There's nothing stopping some particularly rich money miss road from buying 10 of such medals to hang in his sitting room one day and brag to his son.

If Harry Kane sells his Golden boot today, and someone else buys it, whoever sees it will still be able to tell from looking at it, who the the top scorer from that season was.

That money miss road can spend 180k and claim that he has EPL title medals too.

Then the Timbros's of this world will be clapping hands and hailing him that he is better than Lukaku.
Who is here for semantics?

Will all this things you type deny RLC or Chalobah their EPL medals?

HanksAnuku:
Nope it's not.

EPL winners medal does not have anybody's name on it.

The medals with your name are only awarded for your individual exploits.

That's why there's no mention of Tottenham on Harry Kane's golden boot.
So a medal personally handed over to RLC or Chalobah is not their own? Oya carry police go their house collect the medal because their name no dey on top... cheesy

And with the context of the discussion going on, I expected you to post the picture of Lukaku up there not Harry Kane. Or are we discussing Harry Kane? Nihilist, no dey fall hand like this na...

At least something like this will be okay...

The analogy is apt because I'm bragging about wealth I contributed very little to accumulate.

Yes my brothers combined have more money than you, but them no born me well to stand next to you to open my mouth.

Amba's ancestors tried to do the same in bible, by trying to claim the team achievements of Apostles Paul and Peter in the bible, and those old school demons beat the living daylights out Of Amba's great grandad.

Amba's teams can compete with Lukaku's team.

Let Amba stand on his own.
@bolded..... Contributed very little how?

You have your own hustle. Your brothers have theirs. They made 5 million each from their hustles while you never meet up. How did you contribute little to them making 5 million each? My brother, you contributed nothing. Nada. Zilch..... Same way John contributed absolutely nothing to Wayne's success.

But Morata can boast of contributing something to the teams achievement. That's why he has a medal to acknowledge his contribution to that trophy the team won.

Oscar and Ivanovic was sent medals to China and Russia respectively to acknowledge their contribution for EPL we won 5 months after they left.

Trophy is a team achievement

How is that relevant to a discussion on individual ability?

You have 5m in your account. I have 500 Naira.

But because you're an only child, and I have 2 brothers that have 5 million each in their account, then I must be richer than you. cheesy
Why does EACH player have a medal hung on his neck when a cup is won?

In the Olympics in 1996, Chioma Ajunwa have a medal on her neck after a winning gold. Nigeria men football team have a medal EACH for winning the tournament.... They should have been given just one medal since its a team achievement.

BTW that your analogy is way off target. You can't boast of your brother's 5million same way John Rooney can't boast of Wayne's trophy/medals... But if there is a trophy he (John) wins with his team, he can boast of it.

When both of them grow old, Lukaku will be 'gisting' his son how he scored millions of goals during his career while Morata will simply lead his son to a particular room and point... "look here son, your dad's accomplishments during his footballing career"

Truly you don't know ball. What's all these minutes bla bla nonsense? Maybe from where you come from, highest goals scorer is awarded by minutes played on the pitch.

As at today, 10th of December, 2018, Morata does not have more goals or assists than Lukaku. The only thing Morata has more than Lukaku is the number of chances missed, whether big or small.
