Who was the person I was arguing with about right backs overlapping yesterday? See the goal Madueke just scored now. He was with two people and Gusto sprints up to join him and creates uncertainty. In that one moment, a small space opens up, baba takes the shot and we lead by two. Ben White go stand like say e be usher for RCCG. Get your full backs to overlap. Simple. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Jodera:You will keep arguing even when the facts are laid bare to you. It's honourable to accept arguments that are made with facts that are verifiable. Even if you don't believe the facts at least accept them. If someone says he is a billionaire and I doubt it. If the person shows be his bank balance at least I should accept even if I still have my doubts. Any body can wake up and call Giroud 'very very average'. It's funny because it is similar to you accusing Hausa for saying that Saka and Martinelli are average. There is no difference then between the both of you. |

Unlimited22:Don't blame White, blame Arteta. White is part of a back three together with Saliba and Gabriel. If he overlaps the defense will be open. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 4:49pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
Jodera:You are wasting cyberspace. Post the required measures that you used to determine that Giroud is very average. I have brought up titles you say they are rubbish. I then brought stats you call them mini skirts. Oga bring whatever you used to determine that Giroud is average or remain silent. Talk is cheap. Meanwhile I'll like to see the goals per minute ratio your talked about. Don't run. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 4:56pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
daveP:I think it's correct to say. However, stats are facts that when presented as evidence should be accepted. If I say I spend millions daily for example, and you doubt it. Then I bring facts to prove it, like a bank statement, you should accept the facts as long as you don't have any counter evidence, even if you still don't believe. That's my problem with Jodera. After going to viewing centre to hear beer parlour analysis he will come here to argue with no evidence. |

For all the talks about Liverpool defenders, they have the best defense so far this season. Better than Arsenal and Man City. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 7:19pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
Spy360:Football no be mathematics wey I wan dey use stats as all in all. I no be stats person but if you feel say Giroud dey on par with Van Persie and Auba, then good for you. And if you and H.ausa feels that Saka is average, Congratulations!!! I rest my case for this matter. 1 Like |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by daveP(m): 8:04pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
Jodera: Yeah. They SHOULD NOT be ignored either. They spice up the analysis. Anyone wey no wan analyze with stats dey play. Not, e no dey play. The person dey gba!! Students of Statistics know these things. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by daveP(m): 8:12pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
Spy360: Lol. All stats are facts All stats are evidence Make person no go dey shalaye without evidence. For one sample size, there can be stats and counter-stats. Both are still facts/evidence. It's now left to see which is affecting maximum output the most. If the counterfact is that max one, it wins!! Simple!!! For your bank statement example, that falls under irrefutable facts!! However, since football get sentimental value in the mix, one may still choose to stand by their weak premise. Doesn't make it any more factual than the irrefutable one. That is why i personally will continue to complain about our output vs last season. I'm not too comfy like others just cos we 2nd. By 2nd week of January we MAY be 4th if City continues to win and outscore us(for example). We can also be 1st again since out of top 4, we have the easiest next 5 fixtures( unless we flop and disappoint) |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 9:10pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
daveP:So you agree that Giroud was on Par with Van Persie and Auba during their time here? |

Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by mostob(m): 9:25pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
Spy360:Bro... Stats can be quite misleading. Remember Mustafi had better stat than VVD that year. Now pray tell...who would you have rather have in your team between both? Statistically, Havertz has been better than Xhaka this season yet many would still go for Xhaka when it comes down to choosing between the two. Everything no be by stat bro. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by mostob(m): 9:27pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
Spy360:You remember that year Leceister won the league. Remember Giroud went almost 15 games without scoring. That is one proof. Jones was crawling and still got to the ball ahead of Giroud that was running. That is another proof. |

Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by daveP(m): 10:13pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
Jodera: Error initially. "Without stats" corrected. I can't call them to be at par. We should never forget the style of play is totally different even if they are both forwards. That's why i was laughing when i saw some comments mocking Giroud for not scoring at the WC. I just shake head. That guy was the intro to a new style of play for national teams. His goals surpassing Igwe in national team is also indicative, not conclusive. OG sha was wasteful at Emirates sha. |

Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 10:42pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
daveP: If you can't call them to be at par, then what are supporting the stats for? And please don't say we have different styles during both of them era. Both played under Wenger and Giroud immediately replaced Van Persie, so you can't say the teams or style was different |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by daveP(m): 11:05pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
Jodera: I am talking about downplaying Giroud cos of those mocking him for WC show. His stats never won him Golden boot for Arsenal. Rvp got Boot at Arsenal and Man U. 30 and 26goals respectively. Giroud can't lace RVP Arsenal boots. Let him try Yakubu Aiyegbeni fes. Who was the last person to score 26G/A for Arsenal sef? Auba? |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 11:38pm On Dec 30, 2023 |
daveP:Well, like I've always maintained (which was my bullet point to Spy) that Giroud was very very average at arsenal. I don't care nor does it concerns me what he does outside arsenal cos I'm neither a Giroud Stan nor do I support those clubs. Spy brought stats and says he's on par with Van Persie and Auba and your tone initially seemed to agree so. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 5:43am On Dec 31, 2023 |
daveP:You are absolutely right in everything you said here. For every stat there are counter stats. I hope Jodera and Mostob can understand this. For example Striker A may score more goals than striker B but A may have also missed more clear chances than B. So the question becomes which stats supercedes the other. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 5:48am On Dec 31, 2023 |
Jodera:As per the bolded you think it's about feelings? It's you that feels when you open your mouth whaooo like Roman Reigns without having evidence. Football is mathematics. You may 'feel' that Man United and Chelsea have better players than Aston Villa, but look at the league table, Aston Villa has more points than Man United and Chelsea. It's not about feelings it is about evidence. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 5:51am On Dec 31, 2023 |
mostob:My friend stats are not misleading to those who know how they work. If they were then why are they kept. Opta has been keeping stats of players for many years and making good money. Saying stats are misleading is like saying your bank statements are misleading. EFCC go just carry you go where you don't know. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 5:53am On Dec 31, 2023 |
mostob:Do you know how many games Henry played without a goal? Your point no hold water biko In 5matches, Striker A did not score in the first four but scored a hatrick in the fifth. Striker B ensured he scored one goal in each of the 5 matches. Striker B has a better goals per game ratio. But people will think striker A is a better player than B because of the 3goals they saw in one match. Mumu fans |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 6:30am On Dec 31, 2023 |
mostob:You fans can be funny. Havertz missed one game and Arsenal lost 2-0 at home to West Ham. Think about this. When I said it is Havertz that makes the tactics to work with his space control you guys think you know ball more than me. Dey play. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 6:50am On Dec 31, 2023 |
Spy360: If you need me to provide evidence to you (An arsenal OG) that Van Persie was better than Giroud in arsenal shirt just so that you'll be satisfied then you're on a long thing. A very Long Long Thing!!!!! Chukwu aju!! |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 6:53am On Dec 31, 2023 |
Spy360: Thank God Havertz played against Aston Villa and Newcastle, if not I know say you for add that dirty yarns to this turkey yarns you just spewed now Modified: I just remembered that Havertz played against this same West Ham in league cup and we lost. Agenda must always agend sha |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Lush100(m): 6:53am On Dec 31, 2023 |
Spy360: I partly disagree with you on this. We need to understand the context. Harvetz was playing but his performance was VERY POOR. He gave out ball loosely and missed chances. Note I am not saying Arteta system of play was NOT built to have Harvetz as a key component. At some point Arteta benched him and brought him in a sub which was I advocated for so he can impact and understand the game and the players. Harvetz confidence has improved and his performance has also improved and he is showing why Arteta was bringing him in. The system Arteta is playing Harvetz good performance will yield a positive impact. Pls lets understand the context. He is playing well now. Even Odegard went through this phase. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by mostob(m): 7:08am On Dec 31, 2023 |
Spy360:So you're saying we lost because Havertz didn't play? Just say it bro. FYI, you didn't support this Havertz more than me. However, I'm not too blinded to know when to call out a poor performance. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by mostob(m): 7:11am On Dec 31, 2023 |
Spy360:Gbam! You just summarized everything. Using this your context, Giroud is the striker A here while VPersie is striker B. I'm glad you can see how a flash in the pan performance can hide a lot of inconsistencies. |
