Kimbeast:

But Madrid got the ball back and so a new phase of play has started. It's not like City scored directly from it. Madrid got the ball back so there was no advantage for city.

You are talking of corruption but look at you turning amala to defend the same corruption. If the ball goes out of play is a throwin supposed to be awarded. Yes or no?

pkasso:
The way you dey talk about this Prime Barca, person go think dem do 100pts. Or dem go unbeaten in a league season? Or dem win CL 3 in a row. No worry, we go soon revisit this Prime Barca hype.

Hyped above their actual ability. Very overated side that were lucky in Europe. Their away record in Europe was terrible yet they won't let us hear word about how great they are because of 700passes per game.

andrewbaba44:


Is it by going on beaten ,Tito vilanova did 100 points on mourinho head ,does that make his Barca team better than pep own ?

Ernesto velverde almost went on beaten with loosing only 1 game in a full Laliga season ,does that make them better than pep Barca ?

Didn’t arsenal run 49 games unbeaten?

This your logic self

The point I'm trying to make is if they didn't do all these, why carry dem for head like say dem dey invincible. Wetin dem do wey no team never do? Shey na tiki taka?

WhoDeyHause:

So a throw in was missed and the opponent later got the ball for a whole 5 mins before city won the ball back and scored. How exactly does that count as corruption?

Callum Hudson-Odoi has been approached by two Saudi Arabia clubs. Talks are yet to start with the #Chelsea winger. It's unclear if Hudson-Odoi would be open to a move.

finished player ☠️.


I'm seriously happy for saudi Arabia league revolution,it is better than buying rival clubs and making them stronger ,plus they're taking all our deadwoods.



SYMBIOSIS!

Oga, nothing like deadwoods. They just don't suit into Chelsea.

Ake, Rice etc we throway are doing well with other top clubs.

£95m for Kai and Kova

Nice

pkasso:
The only one close enough is Rice, and his passing and build-up play is average.

be honest Rice is pretty much above average considering the team he plays for. Was Rodri posting city numbers when he was at Atletico? Rice passing and build is good o

BlueMann:
£95m for Kai and Kova

Nice

Then add Koulibaly, Ziyech and Mendy

£150m received

You would think they won all their trophies flawlessly without questionable officiating from the refs. Why you think say dem dey call dem UEFAlona that year. That away record funny ehn. Pep went over 3 years without winning an away CL knockout game. Make dem come lose first leg away, e done finish be that.

That's the corruption I'm talking about when it would have likely being awarded if it was another team. Apari benefits from fraud no matter the team he coaches.

Rice is above average sha so you are right

But rodri have shown class since his Villarreal days ,I have always wanted him at Barca then ,he upgraded at ATM and was better at man city

raumdeuter:

Barcelona 2011 Man city 2023

Who wins

City

So it’s now by winning trophies flawlessly by not loosing any game and winning all away games

Agenda don make you and the person wey you quote Dey confused

Pep went over 3 years without winning a ucl away knock out game ,but always making it through to the semis and quarter at worst ,so what’s your point ?

When does a ucl away knockout game decided how good you are ,na who qualify by the end of the day we know

How many ucl did your Bayern won flawlessly since you where winning all away games flawlessly,na so you take win flawlessly drogba score 90 minutes equalizer and dem kill your with pk

Na so you take win Salzburg home and away flawlessly Villarreal sent you packing

iamoyindamola:

Barca 2011
That Barca team was too formidable

but still very beatable
2023 Pep would have found a way to beat his own limited version

Excallibur:
It's been how many hours now and no Nkunku moniker yet, Chelsea fans don dey slack o

lol, person way everybody know say na Chelsea player since last year

Kimbeast:

Man city hands down, better defensively and more resilience. This is the only champions league Pep has won without controversy. That Barcelona team only made it pass the round of 16 due to a fraudulent red card.

am telling you. Some might think because inter may have beat city in the finals so Barca 2011. They just need to look at the team it's self. City team would have found a way to dug out a win

Bohley has blood on his hands if he sells Havertz to Arsenal. Since when did we start selling our best players to common Arsenal?

Which best player?

Which season did Havertz chart in our top 5 POTS awards

What's going on in Scotland?

andrewbaba44:


2012 chelsea was the best against that Barca with their parking the bus tsctics ,it hit like crack

When you watch 2012 Chelsea beat Barca and realize Pep has learnt to win with such tactics you now way that Barca will beat this City. This Pep is prepared to block every route and hit Barca on counter. This city isn't dependent on one player to score, like Barca's Messi, maybe two or three. City can score via any outfield player, especially attackers and midfielders

BlueAngel444:

Rice is good. I just think his game still needs polishing.

Did you watch Rodri at Atleti or even Villarreal? The comparisons with Busquets didn't just start today. Rice's passing is improving and is decent. His defensive qualities are not in doubt, but how does he fit when he plays for a side that dominates possession and constantly face low-block oppositions? That would require extra coaching and some personal development on his part. Rice can get to that point, but I just feel at 100m, you should be getting the finished article, or someone with a crazy ceiling. Rice isn't any of those .

pkasso:
Just listen to yourself. Anfield na playground wey everybody dey go there win? Liverpool were unbeaten for over 4 years on that ground for a reason. Mind you, Man City did win at Anfield, 4-1 in 2020. However you wan spin am, na you sabi.

Dey play. Just dey play.

I am not the one spinning anything. I’m just here for pushbacks before it will become the gospel truth. The fact that they couldn’t beat Chelsea of then does not mean they won’t injure this present man city after all this present man city can’t even dare that Chelsea side. Man city cannot beat any version of pep Barca not yesterday, today or next. They are inferior to any EPL top 4 side of 2007-2009. Facts only.

Who will sign Gift Orban for us oooooo ? I need that guy asap.

2 ucls in four years, the one they didn't win they made the semis with the winners defending for their lives in the second leg to qualify
Dominated and beat one of the greatest managers of all time SAF in two finals
Revolutionized the cruffyian possession brand of football in an era where most teams were purely direct or conservative
Won 14 out of the 19 championships they contested in that time span
Won a treble and sextuple
Once conceded 21 goals in the league
Most of their players also had a very key impact in their national team sides dominance under Aragones and Del Bosque, Xavi was euro POTT in 2008, Iniesta with Spain's world cup clinching goal in 2010 while he was also euro 2012 POTT
Messi's ballon d'or dominance during that period
Had three of their academy graduates make the ballon d'or top 3 list in 2011 if I'm correct, you can name another club that did that
These are the ones I can remember for now

at Atleti only against Barca or Madrid.

Even Rodri improved after his first season in EPL, don't conclude on Rice. Arsenal are going to sign him, though they are not some possession based team but you will still get to see the Rice west ham have be calling £100m for the past couple of seasons. There are few defensive midfielders in the world that have it all like Rice, aerial ability, goals, assists, leadership, passing, tackles, interception, mobility, he may not be known for one major thing like Kante is known for tackling or Kross for midfield control, or Xavi for passing, or Pirlo for long balls, that doesn't make his build up game any less than other DMs, apart from Enzo, Kimmich and Rodri and maybe Tchouameni, don't think there's an U30 world class DM with better build up, long passes, short passes, driving into the box

Melvyn11:
when Arsenal were comfortable and then another barbaric red card to Van persie changed the game that allowed your team to win again.

The same way a ref sent neymar off against malaga in 2017. His first yellow card came c0x he was tying his laces. ref say na time wasting & na barca dey lose ooh RVP was already on yellow card. ref blow offside & rvp kick ball comot 4 stadium. i.e time wasting too.

Capaldi:
Kovacic done deal to City. This clear out is massive.

City have gotten a pretty good player for cheap. It may just be like how Madrid got Kroos. Gundogan or B.Silva may not stay in City next season. Kovacic main issue were his injuries

You are all over the place, Andrew. Calm down We just dey peel the layers off your Prime Barca small by small. Bayern 2020 remains the most dominant CL-winning campaign in history. We were flawless, if that's the word you are looking for Even 2013 sef. We smashed a very strong Juve home and away and destroyed your club 7-0 No controversy, no ojoro.

Your club was at the center of the most disgraceful officiating in the history of the game. Yet, you go still dey beat your chest, dey shout Prime Barca. My friend, go and sit down.

andrewbaba44:
Chelsea is giving city kovacic and you people are happy ,call it a good deal but you are strengthening them ,i even tought kovacic was 32 not knowing dude just clocked 29 last month

You can give arsenal and Man U players ,but giving a team that won 5 of the last 6 epl is somehow

If it’s bundesliga we will be hearing how the league is unserious

and for just £30m I know he is on his last year of contract, they should have made it £35m if not £40m

WhoDeyHause:

At this point there might even be termination of contracts if Saudi people or Europe ones don't come for the remaining deadwood. Rival haters should get ready. We'll soon be back.

no way Chelsea terminate Cesar, CHO, RLC or Pulisic if they stay

Man City just completed a three-peat in the toughest era of English football, but they won't beat any top EPL side from 07-09. LMAO

Bayern 2020 Covid 19 ucl winners ,shame suppose catch you ,playing 1 leg games on neutral empty stadiums

Your Bayern 2020 wasn’t even close to Enrique Barca self

Person no see better ucl team flex ,na Covid 19

Firstly you tried down playing busquets ,now you enter prime Barca vs mancity

You are talking about ojoro ,but as a typical Bayern fan you are so blind to see when Madrid your oppressors cheated you
