Gucciboy:
His time will come when we loose back to back,just hear yourself no wonder we kill strikers

Will Guiu win you the league?

odizeey:
Only small losing, una dey curse Maresca. 😀

Una ungrateful o.

Shebi Una no dey title race? Why una dey weep?

As in ehhhh!

forgiveness:
Why is Meresca bench without Madukwe? The bench looks lean with inexperience players. Probably, he disrespected Fulham coming into the game.

When did we sign this Madukwe guy?

Gucciboy:
A wise coach will start Marc Guiu today but maresca is average

Calm down with this Guiu jinja.

If the young man come in and make one or two blunders, na you go still come here rubbish am.

His time will come at the right time.

I have Colwill last bench

Singapore1:
last year compare to this year

City in similar position. We know how it ended last season.

Liverpool and Arsenal go still bottle the league of care is not taken.

Silentgroper:
You said a defender's primary criteria is defending that other attribute is not compulsory ..


So I'm asking, what is a DM primary criteria??

In a football match, what is a team's line of defence from back to front?

lordfalcao:
na because say na James.

Na for this same thread, some will praise Palmer and still bring Foden or another player into it.

I see no wrong admitting Trent has a certain criteria over James.

It doesn't mean that James is not overall the better defender.

If the aim is praising a player for an attribute he has, then it should be done just for that player. Bring in another player is like comparing both. And when two players are compared, let all criteria come into play.

I can't praise Onana for his "playing from the back" ability and bring Cech into the conversation just because Onana is better in that criteria. It doesn't make sense.

Silentgroper:
what is the criteria of a DM ..



Wan - bisakka wasn't he good at defending??

Why is isn't he rated so high ..


James is piss poor and that's fact...

Who is discussing DM with you?

And who is discussing AWB with you?

Kimbeast:
Same person that was ranting all through last season whenever sterling misses. Now we
should pardon his madueke because he's not our marksman

Sterling is older than Madueke so we shouldn't pardon him. Sterling is on 500k per week so we shouldn't pardon the winger...

Excuses plenty.

Kimbeast:
Now we are excusing wingers for missing chances lol.

You can imagine!

lordfalcao:
I don't think it's about who is better in all aspects.

It's about a certain trait or special criteria.

In passing ability or creativity, Trent is clear.

Why choose a special criteria to down talk another player?

If you want to praise a players special, do it without bringing another player into the discussion.

Wetin consign King James with Trent assist in last match?

I will take a fully fit King James over Trent any time any day, twice on Tuesday.

Na defenders we dey talk of here. I don't know when "passing range and creativity" becomes the primary criteria to rate defenders. Defender o!

Give me a defender that can actually defend very well. Then if he adds the creativity, passing etc etc to his game, very good.

Unless you are among those making mockery of "balance", I don't see why you will choose Trent over King James.

Singapore1:
With modern football, your defense can affect how much you progress at the attack. Jackson is average, and we agree, but only Haaland has a better conversion rate than him this season. You don't expect a striker to score every goal.

We are not even first or second in EPL in terms of chance creation, and I am only saying this to pander to people who love stats. When you watch our games, only a blind man would say Jackson is our problem right now.

There are many instances where Caicedo has to drop to the RB position just to help Disasi, the same as Enzo dropping deep to help Tosin. A clinical Everton would have punished us badly today.

when last did Halaand score and how many times has he bail Mancity out in the last 13 games. and don't forget halaand is way more expensive than Jackson, i would say we are getting more than what we paid for. How many times has Nunez bailed Liverpool out?

Haaland has missed more big chances than Jackson, and Jackson has the same number of big chances missed as Madueke and Salah. Cole Palmer has only one less miss than Jackson. Man City won the league twice without a striker.

Nkunku was supposed to be our top striker for his price, but many of you will allow someone who has never believed he is wrong to do your thinking for you. You cannot watch a Chelsea match and think Jackson is our problem.

This!

Unlimited22:
Isn't he suspended?

He is only charged, not suspended yet. He isn't flagged in the app yet sef.

But I no need worry. KDB didn't feature so Rogers automatically comes in for me.

Ibime:
I need 2 niggas in my FPL team to injure make Rogers enter pitch

I desperately need Cunha to miss his match.

Unlimited22:
MOTM thus far

Pressed well, muscled everybody in midfield, unselfish assist, well taken goal

The kind bad decisions I don make for FPL this season!

I hope Saka hauls. Na because of Saka I bench am.

BlueMann:
I was looking for one cheap midfielder to add...why I no pick Rogers

I benched Rogers

Unlimited22:
On the Internet, it is almost suicidal to admit you've been wrong about anything.

Na why e no gree am. Even as it's obvious that the battle is long lost.

Maybe the word "rare" have a different meaning in his dictionary. Who knows?

popizaino:
No 👎


You guys still don't get t why i tag you to this. I have no problem with a left footed scoring from right and verse-versa.it is the norm. My qualm is that sometimes this phenomenon doesn't work for all the wingers.

As a coach, you study the players you have and try to get the best from them. Ziyech was wasting on the RWF position because he couldn't dribble,Madueke can't also dribble very well at times and also has a deadly shot with a good shooting technique but he struggles to get that space to test the keeper from that position. This position we put them requires being good at dribble,so why not put him were he doesn't require space to shoot? Ziyech loves to cross,why not put him there were he can get it done easily and will be more of advantage for both Kai and Giroud and team that was strugglingto score under Tuchel,but you all disagreed till i brought how Fergie uses Giggs in the same position to win.The next excuse was that it was some centuries ago and can't be effective now. Still gave a Di-maria example at the World Cup. You all still had your excuses. So i turned it to a point of duty to always tag you guys whenever there is this rare moments you made excuses for and called it bullshiit.

So you prefer rare moments to frequent moments? I no understand you Popi.

Do you prefer something that happen once in 5 matches to something that happens every match?

Ibime:
Cuku should have rested for Chilwell

Also would have liked to see Carney and Rak.Saki

Whatever happened to Chilwell.

I thought he wanted to be integrated back into the team with that solitary appearance he was given some time ago. Wetin come happen?

Calibrator:
This one pass village people doings oooo.

Are you in any way related to Vi sister in Arcane?

iamoyindamola:
I know it's cause of his attack
But all that have been fading for years na

His first match after injury, came in as a sub and assisted 2 goals.

iamoyindamola:
The work of defenders are to keep goals out
They haul with that, assist and getting goals are bonus
If I am picking defenders I look at the price and how strong the team is defensively
That's why I hardly get trent, with that pricetag he must deliver week in week out

Liverpool have conceded the least number of goals this season. And I brought in Trent primarily for his attacking output sef.

Calibrator:
No be same Timbros Fc wey get Gvardiol, Porro and Trent on team rooster?

How is that terrible, Sire?

I just brought Trent in. Benched Gvardiol vs Man Utd and he scored. Porro form is on and off. Ait Nouri was in form before I brought him in but dwindled immediately he came in.

iamoyindamola:
🤣🤣🤣

His attack is good but defense is terrible

Defence just dey kee me

raumdeuter:
Why cant you? where you suppose dey before? You think you suppose dey higher?

Attack vs defence

I no blame you. Why you no go get mouth talk?

Sha, na first half of season be dis...

I can't believe where I am on the log

Everybody can see how often my moniker is unnecessarily on this guy's post even when I try my best to ignore him.

Yet he will be the one to lie that I insulted him.

Well, continue in your childishness.

Vischy:
Quit already, airmark won hands down. A new striker is needed to compete comfortablely,to finish our chances and kill our games as soon as possible.

Ok

Vischy:
Nothing concern Chelsea fans with other strikers,what we're concerned about is the rate at which Jackson misses open chances considering you don't get such chances at all time especially against defensive or low block teams.

Imagine yesterday was a draw game,what would you have said?

We need a top striker to finish the chances we create and kill games as soon as possible before opponents think of a comeback.

What I would have said? I would have blamed the defence for not keeping a cleansheet. We are already one goal up. With a water tight defence, the match would have been all but won.

But sha, I hear you.

diggz:
Bros I no understand you o... so you expect me to dey disappointed or unhappy when strikers from other teams e.g Haaland, Gakpo or Harvertz miss open net too? I no understand you at all bros

If Haaland, Gakpo, Nunez or Harvertz miss open nets na celebrate I go celebrate... Or how you want me to react to their miss?

I refuse to do this.

I hear you bros.
