But airmark you too get bad mouth

diggz:
Dayo just talk say no be the term ...fox in the box....be your issue...





Morata is a "goat in the box"....even timbros LiLbros knows this...

Lol...

Lukaku come be Camel in the box...

diggz:
Stop typing rubbish to justify the uselessness of your warapa striker cuz he never had anything that was close to form...

In their level of poo "morata>>>lukaku" indeed.....same way 14th>>>6th in your books.

Whoever told you about squawka definitely did you wrong by failing to tell you when or where not to use agidi or make terrible conclusions applying it.

Lol..... Same way 12th>>>5th abi?

eph12:
The issue is not even the loss of form. I don't know why you're not ashamed to say Giroud is the competitor to Morata. Abi is it not this same Giroud ni? Giroud can't bench Lukaku #fact, not in this lifetime

Your opinion....

... And it hardly matters.

diggz:
What straw are you holding on to again? Whether you discuss scoring ability or competition for morata...the koko be say....a fccking 32year Giroud was never meant to come in...to start benching your warapa striker...

Which straw kwa?

Dude asked me who the competition for Morata is, I listed then for him. Wetin bring scoring ability again?

Even if Chelsea decide to buy 100 year old Bonucci and starts him AS NUMBER 9 ahead of Morata, that's competition for him. What Morata will do is up his game, fight for that shirt, regain his place in the starting line up.

eph12:
We're discussing the justification for Giroud starting ahead of Morata. It's not because he's better or for squad rotation. Or probably because he's better, what do I know

I don't know who the "we're" in your post is referring to but certainly it's not me. I was never discussing that with you.

I gave you the answer to this question

eph12:
Who's the competition for Morata?

Whether Giroud starting ahead of Morata is justified or not, that's entirely another topic for discussion.

Giroud came into the discussion only when I answered your question.... Who's the competition for Morata?

Morata lost form, Conte decided to go for another striker to compete for that position. Lukaku lost form, Mourinho pressed on with him..... That's the difference.

Was any of Morata or Lukaku the best striker in England? No. But in their level of poo, Morata>>>Lukaku anytime anyday.

Cc diggz

eph12:
LOL competition ko. Abi dey couldn't stomach his uselessness

When Lukaku wasn't scoring, he was defending. @bolded ask Mourinho

Giroud had no scoring record, at least lately before he was bought. Even in his national team, they prefer him to other more prolific strikers

I don't know where else you are heading with this your comment. Was Giroud bought to come and defend for us? If Giroud starts a match, who gets benched? Alonso? Or maybe Azpilicueta?

Are we even discussing Giroud's goal scoring ability or competition for Morata? This was your question which I have answered...

eph12:
Who's the competition for Morata?

HanksAnuku:
one ediot dey use my name in vain so I left the moniker for him.

Is he still using your moniker? Smh...

I wonder how he cloned your moniker exactly.

HanksAnuku:
I dey here bruv

Lol.... I don dey monitor this moniker since.

Been wondering 'who be dis?'

eph12:
Bat hardly started any match before he went on loan. He wasn't a competitor at all.

Morata was not scoring and he couldn't offer anything else on the pitch, reason Hazard was forced to play the false nine. At least we saw Lukaku at left strike back. Giroud wasn't even bought for his goal scoring abilities ffs. If he was, then lol

Batshuayi made 12 Premier league apps (25 in all competitions) before heading to Dortmund in January. Most of the apps might not be starts but he comes in at the expense of Morata. That's competition.

@bolded....That is exactly what I'm saying. Competition. When Lukaku was not scoring, was anyone forced to play false 9? Was he benched for another striker? No. Because no competition for him.

I don't even understand what you mean by that Giroud statement.... Does a club buy a striker for his defensive ability?

Ah! So Madrid don nack Julen Lopetegui akpako... Wey him for jejely dey him National Team.

Just 4 months. Smh...

Conte to Madrid loading

eph12:
Who's the competition for Morata?

Batshuayi before he went to Dortmund on loan, Hazard as false 9, Giroud 2nd half of the season.

Mrphilia:
Last season Morata was a miss, but people on here just don't want to give the guy a chance this season. Atleast they should learn to give credit when it's due, if Morata perform shame no go just allow some people say the guy gave a good performance.

Don't mind them.

Even diggz gave Morata a benchmark of 15 premiership goals last season (his first season) and he scored 11....him no try? Na wao.

liveLongNprospa:
When you are not good enough to play, the coach benches you thereby leading to lesser minutes which is the case or Morata. So compared to Lukaku.. Morata was shit last season. Lukaku earned Mourinho's trust and even when he wasn't scoring in some games.. He offered more. All Morata did last season was miss and claim complete ownership of the sunken place.

Lukaku didn't earn Mourinho's trust. Rather Mourinho didn't trust his other attackers.

Brighton won Man Utd 1-0 last season in a game Lukaku missed through injury. Below are Mourinho's exact words in his post match interview...

Mourinho started with Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial in attack for only the second time since the turn of the year, and both struggled to make any impact as Brighton controlled the game and claimed the three points that ensured they will return to Premier League action next season.

“For many months you are always asking why this player does not play, why this player is on the bench, why always Lukaku? I know my players better than you, and you do not know them so well to be always asking these questions,” said Mourinho, whose side remain in second place but will need to improve dramatically if they are to have any chance of defeating Chelsea in the upcoming FA Cup final.

“You have the answer now when you ask ‘why always Lukaku?’ We are probably not as good as people think we are individually.”

To Mourinho, Lukaku is the best striker at his disposal not necessarily the best striker he wanted at the moment.

That is why he keeps playing Lukaku week in week out. There was virtually no competition for Lukaku. No matter how much poo he is, he will still start. But its not so for Morata hence the lesser minutes.

This season he even made the excuse that he can't bench Lukaku and play Rashford as number 9 because he doesn't have another wide player. But he actually have Martial, Mata and Sanchez who can flank Rashford.

Yesterday no be person tell am to bench the unproductive Lukaku.

Unlimited22:
I have rarely come across a comment as ridiculous as this. Even in the midst of this maelstrom that is nairaland.

You can only speculate. 670mins equals about 7 matches.

Depends on the opponents he meet in those 7 matches. It is very possible he can score a hattrick, brace or even go goalless.

But the record has it that he scored a goal after every 180mins so I don't see how that comment is ridiculous...

diggz:
Cool story....Keep taking a piss!

Last season, Lukaku played 670mins (about 7 matches of full 90mins) more than Morata and scored just 4 goals more.

If Morata played those 670mins more, he would score 5 goals or more.

diggz:
Cool story....Keep taking a piss!

Right now in all competitions...

Lukaku 14 apps 4 goals

Morata 13 apps 4 goals...

Who is more useless?

diggz:
We will see who is more useless at the end of the season....I can bet you will need that your metrics of yours to save face cuz your boy won't make the numbers...

It's not 'my' metrics. It's a metric set to show how efficient a player is comparing minutes played to output.

If Morata had played up to the minutes Lukaku played last season, he would have scored Lukaku's 15 goals or more sef...

Mrphilia:
Please why the hate on Morata on this board? The dude can get better but he isn't as bad as we are making him look Abeg. Yesterday performance from him was brilliant. He was just unlucky not to have scored more than a goal due to Hart brilliance. Make una dey learn to give credit when it's due.

If you don't watch Chelsea match and rely on comments here to know what's going on, your name na sorry...

diggz:
I didn't watch ManU game but I saw ours and your useless striker was useless as usual

Better go and watch Man Utd game and see how useless your Lukaku is

diggz:
I thought you will be happy seeing lukaku start from the bench? At least it's a start to equal out that yeye metrics btw both players especially minutes played.

Mscheeeew n.a. better waste man ojare.....person wey dey throwaway one on one anyhow yesterday....naim you wan dey dance ajasco on top.

Guess what? Loftus cheek scored yesterday too

Lol...

What an embarrassment to be benched against Everton of all clubs! That is the extent your Lukaku have descended to.

Did you watch Man Utd game yesterday? Did you see Lukaku's performance when he came on? Did you see the free 1v1 header he wasted? Lol

Na only Morata dey waste chances...

Emaprince:
Lmao.who is lukaku?

Their fans call him elephant...and celebrated his omission from the starting 11

Morata is trash but he is way better than Lukaku.

For Mourinho to bench him, make you know say him matter don pass joromi...

Lukaku chop bench, Morata score, no diggz in my mention...

Later you go claim network no dey that your village.

No wahala.

Courtois just dey chop the goals anyhow...

Thank you Madrid for Kovacic.

Unlimited22:
If we sell Hazard, please let's sign Wilfried Zaha

Make raumdeuter no see this post o.

You don use your hand put Hazard and Zaha the same level.

Palace equaliser. Another PK.

2-2

airmark:
I made that statement after 2016/2017 during which Bailly was instrumental to united having a great defence. His first month in epl, he was man utd player of the month and went ahead to be selected in europa team of the season, before a recurring knee injury ruined him.

Read below and make sensible conclusion, stop following idiots like raumdeuter and lordfalcao like zombie.

"He was voted Manchester United's Player of the Month for August 2016. Talking to MUTV, he said "The Man-of-the-Match awards are something I hadn’t thought about but I got them through the hard work I have put in. I hope to see more of that in the weeks ahead of us."[20] On 23 October 2016, Bailly was substituted off in the 52nd minute after suffering a serious knee injury during the 4–0 loss at Chelsea.[21] He made 11 appearances as the Red Devils won the Europa League, and was named in the Squad of the Season

You can check his injury history to know how his brilliant start crumbled.

When I told raumdeuter that I wasn't convinced with Bailly, the double-mouth started hyping him below:

So one is allowed to his view of someone overtime? Yet you are the resident hausa digger we have here, always rushing to dig out someone's post of months even years back.

Continue.

raumdeuter:
Not just that

he also

That Llorente own na massive L.

Few days ago when he was digging up my Morata's post, I asked him to do well and post his own recommendations that period. Him just pretend like say him no see dat one...

Unlimited22:
He pulled up and signalled to the bench.
He wasn't running tho.

Hamstring maybe...

The injuries are accumulating o....na wao

Unlimited22:
Pedro is injured. Bleep.

How serious?

I'm not watching...

Did airmark actually rate Bailly above Rudiger?
