So you only wanted Tosin to be signed and tweaking of Tactics, with all these DRs you listed. You never asked for more than 1 defender to be bought.

You are the first 'Jehovah's witness' that wants to outshine Peter with a lie.

airmark:
Without injuries to James and Gusto, Tosin might have been benched for Fofana as our Maresca first choice CB. I know you didn't know that. So, keep quiet as we we kept clean sheets consecutively without spending big.

Tosin came as Silva's replacement as we all expected and even at that, we didn't spend 1 Naira to get him as against your wish of spending more on defence.

In our attack, the burden of carrying the team is no more only on Palmer. Sancho though majorly quiet today, he still assisted Jackson's first goal just as he did last week for Nkunku.

Thank God Chelsea reinforced the attack with Neto, Felix, Sancho and next January, we replace your epileptic Jackson.

lordfalcao:
Why were you not praising crystal palace and bournmouth keeper for making excellent saves to deny Jackson?

You thought he was shooting at dummies during the last two matches? You didn't factor the good saves the keepers made.


I am sure you secretly pray that keepers make saves of Jackson shots. So you can cry about it as missed chances

airmark:
This one no get shame.

Can you see that we didn't spend shishi on the defence and we are not conceding 2 goals as you and Lordfalcao predicted this season?

raumdeuter:
Timbros Sanchez with a clean sheet likely 10 points from my keeper

You better surrender early make I no kantab you this game week for fantasy

User09:
You forget the scenario where 3-3 becomes 4-3 by a last minute winner by Chelsea, emphasizing the importance of attack over defense

raumdeuter:
How many non PK G +A from Jackson this season

And how many players in the league have more

Unlimited22:
Timbros will you let this slide

raumdeuter:
If na you I dey play na walkover be that. I no need to worry

Griffon:
My stance and that of Tim.bros on this lingering matter made clear.

Two goals scored, and the defense are about to throw them away with some crappy high school football defending.

If we draw this game, expect some smellos to slip up on the defensive lapses to blame an attack that produced two goals for not scoring more goals.

raumdeuter:
My hate watch no dey flow well cos I have Sanchez as my goalkeeper in fantasy

Jamiuokolaa:
What has been mathematically and theoretically proven is that a team can concede the fewest number of goals and still relegate - 38 nil nil draws is relegation form.

As you have seen, goals are needed to win games to avoid relegation in the scenario depicted above

raumdeuter:
2022/23 Leicester scored 51 goals and relegated that same season Aston Villa scored 51 goals and finished 7th

Jamiuokolaa:
If a team keeps 38 clean sheets, the defence has done a perfect job but it cannot even guarantee survival.

However, that same team needs the attack to score goals to win games - if they manage to score a paltry 38 goals (1 goal in every game), they are champions!

Jamiuokolaa:
Theoretically,

A team can keep 38 clean sheets and relegate..

But a team that keeps 38 clean sheets and scores a paltry 38 goals (1 in every match) would be crowned champions

Fact check me..lol

oliverano:


I wanted to ask this but you beat me to it lol.

If you can keep 38 clean sheet in the premier league or any top league, the chances of survival is extremely high that's because 38 clean sheet doesn't mean 38 points!

Jamiuokolaa:
What's your opinion?

Peeps keep forgetting that a team can keep 38 clean sheets and still relegate

raumdeuter:
Imagine getting -12 to get Haaland and not captain him

I'm sure na RevfrEbuka and Segedinho carry my team name to Baba for village

popizaino:
It gave us our 2nd UCL but real madrid is on record 14th UCL with outscore your opponent mentality.


That is what you should aim for.

popizaino:
That you had to go back to the era Mourinho when was still the special one tells me all i need to know.

airmark:
If we want to compete for trophies Havertz shouldn't be starting our key games. The ball came to his favorite leg and he still put it off the goal.

Even that his controversial move, off which Spurs used to score 1st, he should have moved the ball away from the trailing defender, he put it in his path. They should have loaned him away and get better strikers..

airmark:
Better, he should work on his confidence in front of goal after that big miss against Udinese.

I don't want Havertz to lead the line this season, he kills the moral of the team with his lackadaisical play upfront.

airmark:
You are not serious. Havertz ko, Havard ni.

airmark:
Richarlison should be bought, I don't want to see that unproductive Havertz, leading the line next season.

airmark:
Relying on Havertz will expose Tuchel as a madman.

lordfalcao:
Jackson was not the reason you lost two points


Anyone who claimed to play football will know that this was a tight angle finish with a weaker foot. With the defender heavily on him.

The keeper made the difference with his arms

lordfalcao:
so na Jackson make you loose two points .

You no serious.


Your other attackers were busy missing chance.


And your defense conceded as sure banker

Rest

airmark:
Let's ask his multiple agents here on this platform.

I was here yesterday stating that Jackson wouldn't score the goal Havertz scored. Anytime he sees a keeper standing in his front under minimal pressure, his brain freezes.

We have seen so many excuses they gave to defend his big misses. The only one I may accept is that his legs are not straight. Why not just sign a better finisher, whose legs are straight?

Teams will try as much as possible to shut down our support cast/wide men and the wasteful striker (who is supposed to be our best finisher) playing closer to the post, will continue to be missing sitters as we saw today.

2 cheap points dropped, rinse and repeat.

popizaino:
Arsenal had the meanest defence last season but city won the title.

Man city scored the most goals last season and also won the title.

What are you saying about defence again?

popizaino:
This is the same stupid mentality that has made Mourinho less desirable for top clubs is what you are religiously clinging on to. Thank God you're not at the helm of affairs at the bridge.

Ibime:
We both got the highest points this game week and still drew. That's why FA Cup is luck of the draw

WhoDeyHause:
Boss We scored them in the 25th minute before our auxiliary and inverted wingers ft jackson couldn't put the game to bed, even the palace goal is one that you can't really fault any defender on except maybe gbanchez for his poor positioning, upon all that we still saw chances and could have had 3 points instead of one if the weapon fashioned against us to prosper today didn't snooze,so we should sit down in our own half and defend a goal scored early in the game when we could have sharply put the game to bed, at home against a team we beat home and away last season? it's not as if the defense is even great, your league champions conceded minutes after taking the lead, I didn't see them defending any one goal lead from the 9th minute. Let's just keep making excuses for some certain individuals, hopefully we'll have something good to celebrate by season end.

WhoDeyHause:
Yes you right, we shouldn't have even attempted to score, just camp in our box 18 at home against crystal freaking palace like all those eastern European teams till referee blow whistle, clean sheet for you, clean sheet for me everybody goes home happy.

airmark:
The same people did the same against me on Morata and when we threw him away after the havoc had been done, they went mute.

The same script is about to play out but I don't blame the ignorance of the fans here but the stupid club relying on a wasteful striker to spearhead our attack.
