Well if he doesn't sit up and improve he can be shifted out. Time and opportunity wait for no man.

If Wenger leaves I honestly will be very very afraid for him. This is not about hate or bad belle but forward projection and reality.

Iwobi will come good. Think a new manager might actually be good for him. He'd thrive under a coach like Tuchel or Pep. Wenger is a great man manager, but he's no longer hands on with players like before. He's lost his touch.

Irony of years. See de Gea too. NFF too should help matters at least. Treat me as gods and egg until they rule the world. it only drags investment to them that way....

Watched the game highlights, INCREDIBLE.

Did not know how young the Liepzig team is and for a German team they have a lot of African origin players with blistering pace.

They are building for the future one to watch out for.
. I saw their main man Werner training on the sidelines but he never got to come in and I don't know why. Anyways,it was a great match. One I'll definitely watch again and again.

That is what I call "experience over talent"


Even that Payet's goal sef was dope.... 3shots from the same angle in 5seconds and the keeper parries two.... and the 3rd went in?? Mehn, the final four teams have it really.


Sporting effed up.


They totally outplayed and outclassed Atletico. But respect The Diego at the sidelines, he knows how to defend die.

The Diego on the pitch is a demon too.
. Mehn I was so busy and engaged with the Marseille match that I didn't even bother checking others cheesy. Did you see Payet's 1st half disallowed goal shocked? That guy is madly talented. Both feet of his take shots accurately!! That was an Arjen Robben type of goal cheesy. No wonder West ham refused to let him go. Funny enough I still think he's still underrated. What a talent!! In fact the whole Marseille team was ready to DIE on that pitch. That's the kind of determination that makes you just love the game of football. Amazing!!

In actual fact his team Reading has been struggling to create the same level of performance as last season. They sacked thier Managers and have lost thier way.

Although Aluko has been a stand out consistent top player for Reading Fc. It has affected his rating you can't play for yourself alone it's still a team game.

His decision to leave Fulham was simply from a football perspective shambolic. However, from a financial perspective from a player who is 29 he pocketed a near £1million so he is laffing all the way to the bank.

But Fulham seem to be on thier way to the EPL after a long absence. But no worries there will be a number of Nigerian origin players in the EPL if they make it including a Nigerian striker.

Aluko has not been the topic of general discussion here. Reading are not in the Europe. So not too much too talk about. I use go to Fulham games a lot and still do in my opinion they have one of the best football academies in England. Reading Fc on the odd occasion.

I expected him to get some good game time at Lipzig but its not happening. To be honest he is not better than the existing players who play in his position or possible positions. There are some very good African origin players with blistering pace you also have here Liverpool bound Keita add to that they are all young.

So it may be next season for him at Everton if the get a new manager.

He is getting game time. Out of the 9 matches he was eligible to play, he played 6 matches, out of which he started 2 matches.

So far, he has scored and assisted once.

He was not eligible to play in the Europa League because he already played for Everton.

One day,he'll join a bigger club and come back to score a hat trick against Arsenal thereby bringing hot and heavily streaming tears to the eyes of those idiots who insulted him and I hope he tops it all of with a big wide grin on his face grin.

Thank you for talking me down, Richard Kajola. I think you've balanced opinion in the whole matter and made some indisputable points. However, when these things happens over and over again, and becomes a pattern, you can't help but wonder what's going on. Just to refresh your memory:

PSG played a man down in both legs of their round of 16 match against Real
Juve played a man down in the first leg of their Q-final match
Two years ago, the cup was practically stolen from Athletico and given to Real
Bayern Munich played a man down in both legs of their semi finals clash with Real Madrid last year. And even with a man down, when Bayern starts winning the match, Real Madrid was given the most bizarre offside goal you can ever see in football.


O pari


RichardKajola:

For me it was a penalty. Let's remove sentiment and forget the time it happened in the match ( imagine if this was to be in a LA liga match on the 60th minute with Madrid 3 nil up, would there had been contention?) and you will get a better view. Benatia didn't touched the ball and that was a definite goal scoring opportunity though it wasn't a red card and in these modern age were almost 90 percent of fouls involves simulation or let's call it exaggeration of contact, this was definitely a foul. The red card to Buffon was harsh.
I agree with you that Madrid have been very lucky when it comes to referee decisions this past few years but its just football if not Isco's earlier goal in the match would have been allowed because it was a very tight call. However I agree with u that they have been favoured by referee but I don't believe uefa has a hand in it.
I also agree with you that Ronaldo is over hyped. Anything he does even if he scores just a taping or pk it gets blown up but somehow he has a way of scoring in top games.

Yup. It was less than a 50-50 call, in my opinion. And considering the timing and the impact of the penalty, a fair ref should've waved play on and let the teams settle the matter in the extra time.

Why is he a flop, facts figures and present your position coherently without emotional ramblings.

He is on loan from Everton and Leipzig will not show loyalty as is normal to any loan player.

He is a winger played 5 games 1 goal has been influential when he played and you call him a flop.

That's not very well though out, I would say.
he is just not good simple

I think Dangote should take a cue from Red bull with the way they run different clubs in different countries and still making considerable succes and raking in money.

he should however start from home clubs, sincerely any low or small Northern clubsides and take them up the ladder the use it as a good reason to bid 4 Arsenal.

Players careers have been made and destroyed by managers.

You imply Wenger is not a good manager in my opinion he is one of the best. He has taken nobody's and made them into some of the best players in the World.

Consider where Thiery Henry, Vieira, Sylvino, Fabregas, Kolo Toure, Eboue, Lauren, Adebayor, Bellerin, Anelka, he then made Bergkamp and Kanu into what they are today. This just a few there are just too many to mention.

You should apologise to the house for saying that Wenger is a bad manager and coach because that's what you have implied.

I stand to be corrected but Wenger has done more for African footballers than any other Manager in the history of the EPL.

Wenger suppose get Chieftancy title from Nigeria.

Wenger is a good manager past his expiry date.

My point is that young players with great potential do not reach that next level under him. Danielson, Walcott, Ox, Merida, Carlos Vela,... These wrong prospects were unable to reach that next level under Wenger.

Isn't he a flop by your standards?
The expectation is that he would be getting regular time based on his "EPL proven quality", and you opined that he is currently playing second fiddle to other young African forwards in Leipzig. What more do you have to say than excuses that he is not favored because he is on loan?
