Agbaya Luiz!

Nihilist:

The wholr point of playing 5 at the back is to defend a lot deeper.

oshey defender of the universe

Ibime:
Navas and DeBruyne are doing 2v1 vs Alonso all day.

they wan put that guy for confusion. I no blame them, na only Alonso dy mark them.

Swansea rendering this match's result irrelevant at the moment

Ibime:
Agbaya Luiz!

as in real agbaya

All these risky back passes!!

lordfalcao:

Well the strategy is for Hazard to go into the space vacated by Navas. Risky strategy from both sides.

Well, they haven't created any real chance and they scored an osho free so I'm not sure why you dey vex

I'm still looking for Raumdeuter.

Costa playing left wing just tire me sef.

Nihilist:


City are playing 3 in midfield vs our 2.

That's why Silva us seeing space to run in to. Has nothing to do with Matic's absence.

It's not even about the 3 or Silva, it's about how our 2 are going about the business of screening the defence.

It's horrendous!

Hazard is on fire!! !

He is going to be deadly as a 9 in this game


Where is my one and only Willian or even my Majestic Matic, Costa needs to Bleep out.

First 45 mins.
1. F.ck whatever anyone else says but There is no league like the EPL.
2. The first goal was made by Hazard and scored by Hazard. Brilliant.
3. Cortouis ain't getting his bonus. No way.
4. We need a serious penalty taker.
4. Aguero is one dangerous striker. Pep just dey pour sand sand for the guy garri. It's ok for us though.
5. Where is our midfield?

Oshey broda, we ain't missing Matic at all.

What do you want them to do? They are 2 men marking 3. Our own 3rd man is at centre back. If they like, they should run through midfield all they want. They still have one man against our 3 centre backs. Apart from that goal Courtois dashed them, what chance have they created? Outside the free goal, they've only had 2 shots from inside the box.

Morata don dy try.. Having less appearance than benzema yet outscoring benzema

Conte man wey sabi... He don put matic sharp sharp

Staying compact is the idea. No matter how useless Matic is, you can't find him drifted away from the action zone.

Cesc doesn't understand 'cos he's no Dm.

Matic is on, Conte dey observe sha

Switching to 3-5-2. Not feeling Pedro for that RWB though.

Conte should give Willian a shot at that RWB. He has the work ethic.

Matic is on to put numbers in midfield, nothing more. If there was a problem with individual performance in midfield, it's a midfielder that would have come off.

This fernadinho dey craze.

Cesc's creativity is needed in a game of this sort, Matic is on to complement.

So numbers...

KDB na player abeg!!!!

Nihilist:


So numbers...

Call it numbers if you want bro. It actually translates directly into stabilizing our game play while preventing the opposition from having easy pass through the midfield.

If you put my grandpa in there, you'll get exactly the same effect. 3 midfielders find it harder to get past 3 than they did against 2. Quelle surprise

Which side is playing at home?

Costa actually has a mental problem, that I am certain of.

Well I am definitely not arguing against your point. And, I do agree when you say it is about numbers. However,the set of players who make up the numbers actually count so pls dont play that down.


PS: I am not even seeing the match sef and Na una I dey use follow the game.

Hazard don start the rubbish o?

Alonso has been fantastic so far
