Marjoribanks:the feeling from Arsenal is they won’t buy a superstar player this summer and if they go ahead to buy Sesko there won’t be any need to sign Osimhen 1 Like |

Osimhen to Arsenal needs to happen. Has to happen. I have no doubt in my football mind that his coming will take Arteta's Arsenal to a major competitive level mentally. The Monster Mentality of Osimhen will further lift an already fantastic Arsenal attack. Marjoribanks: 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Arsenal going for Sesko would only be for the sentiment of "spending less" nothing more. If Arsenal wants to really fly even higher next season, they need a monster WC player not another Top potential. jihday: 2 Likes |

The Winning Beast Called Real Madrid From the moment they showed character and heart and inevitable unpredictability to beat Pep's Man City, I knew I was looking again at the UCL Winners for the 15th time. Madrid have an absolute winning culture. The best in the sport... and they aren't limited by any particular playing style. They are the ADAPTATION KINGS. They morph into any style depending on their opponents. They give freedom and limitless licence to the abilities and mentality of their players to deliver when it matters. From the 50s and 60s till the 80s... to the 2000s into the C. Ronaldo Era...and now in the Post-C. Ronaldo era, they just keep on winning. The key is a Monstrous winning culture and a mad "top talents" recruitment drive that never dies. This Madrid team is already the best but look at how they still add to keep their Monstrous flow going. Adding Mbappe and Endrick to this already Super Madrid team shows the inevitability of more UCLs to come. This is just part of why they will remain the best and biggest and mightiest clubside on the planet. They don't stop recruiting the best and they never get tired of winning. Congrats to the best of the best. And Congrats to Carlo Ancelotti... UCL master. 2 UCLs as a player and 5 as a Coach (highest winning UCL manager of all time). Only Real Madrid has won more UCLs than Carlo as a person. Carlo is tied with Milan for 7. Lol God help the rest of Europe next season and in subsequent seasons. 😂 5 Likes

TheSuperNerd: I have never seen a team as lucky as Real Madrid. Like look at the chances Borussia Dortmund missed yesterday. Real Madrid was there for the taken. Jamie Carragher's prediction was spot on. But, here we are seeing Real Madrid as champions. They were so poor yesterday that the commentators were complaining that there was no fight. Congratulations to them. |

How are they so lucky? Reminds me of three seasons ago where they scored two late goals against us (Man City). They were clearly not the better side. Las Las, their Babalawo knows work. 😂 |

A "Luck" that has followed them for generations is no luck. It's a tradition of winning. Let me quote Ancelotti before the UCL final kicked off.... "That’s a complicated question. It depends. But there is something special about this club; so many times can’t be a coincidence. Maybe history, tradition, quality, I don’t know, but it’s happened many times and that means it’s no coincidence,” said Carlos Ancelotti to reporters during the pre-match press conference.

TheSuperNerd: Still does not answer the question. They were terrible yesterday. Real Madrid were so poor. Vinicius clearly should have been sent off. Some how, they just get lucky and win. It might be history that they are so lucky but it does not change the mystery.

You are exaggerating again. Dortmund only had the better first half. Madrid were the better team in the second half. That is certainly not the painting of "totally poor". They are deserved UCL Winners..... AGAIN! TheGoodJoe: 4 Likes |

Certain Mysteries are never meant to be understood. Football goes beyond knowing how to control spaces or sticking to a particular playing style. Football is first and ultimately about the humans kicking that round leather and their mindset, and approach to the words "winning" or "losing". Even City have rode their "luck" a few times in the past. Every team has this phase but Madrid's seems eternal. Lol TheGoodJoe: 5 Likes 1 Share |

TheSuperNerd: Come on Bro. Even the commentators were complaining that Real Madrid should have come out stronger in the second half to make a statement. Not me saying or exaggerating. It was clearly the commentators. Even the first half, there were enough chances to kill Real Madrid. What I am saying is that, I don't understand this level of luck. I have seen ball deflect twice in a game and fall to a Real Madrid player and he scored. Look at the pass Maasten gave that led to the second goal. I don't understand it. No Real Madrid player will say they were not lucky yesterday. I just don't understand it |
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by TheSuperNerd(m): 9:26am On Jun 02 |
You don't take your chances. You lose. You take your chances. You win. That is the game. Real madrid is on 15 UCLs now. Pep's ManCity has a lot of catching up to do after he declared they are coming for Madrid's haul so far just because they won one last season. In all, My Good Friend, TheGoodJoe... you cannot understand everything. Know this and know peace. TheGoodJoe: 1 Like |

Arteta and Edu better prioritise right because in football sometimes, you have to spend big on super quality to bring in the desired results. Spending cheap doesn't always translate to a masterstroke. It works sometimes and at other times, it doesn't. Look at Madrid. So complete (or near complete) yet they are still upgrading by bringing in Mbappe. jihday: 2 Likes |

Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by mostob(m): 10:56am On Jun 02 |
If Arsenal is looking at Italy for a striker, they would go for Vlahovic. Talent is important but availability is also important. Osimhen's main Achilles is his injury issues. Why should Arsenal go for him when there is a certain Gabriel Jesus in the squad? So because Arsenal are going for Sesko mean they don't want to spend again? The same club that paid 100m on Rice and were willing to spend 90m on Mudryk. |

jihday:You're actually wrong. The last phase of the manager's plan is to buy superstars. You should have seen a glimpse of that by their recent signings. |

TheGoodJoe:these are the final stats of the last two UCL finals btw. Man city faced 14 shots and 6 of them were on target compared to Madrid's 13 shots and 4 shots on target but how you won the UCL did not surprise you, it's Madrid's own that surprised you. 6 Likes 2 Shares

We are going to have a clash against SA, Olisah Ndah is being hailed in the SA league as the best CB in the league, the SA team is made up of players from the SA league, but we instead chose Tanimu from one of the worst teams in Tanzania. Make it make sense. 5 Likes |
