Ogbeni shut up your mouth ojare. I criticized all of them in that same post you quoted.

Mancini City beat SAF 6 - 1. Does that mean Mancini is better than SAF.

Even that year when Pep went trophyless, you could clearly see the way they were playing. They were not struggling to create chances, they create bucket load of chances, scored goals and concede as much as they scored. It was obvious the defense was the issue and the next season, he fixed that up. Now he has won the league back to back and will prolly do the 3 peat.

Ole style of play is counter attacking, there’s no point trying to lie to ourselves that it isn’t. Go look at all the match we won under him and see how the goals came by.

Counter attacking is not a bad style of play, but you must get the necessary players to execute the style of play and this is where the blame is on Ole.

eph12:

What wing/role is he going to play? A creator?

eph12:

Counter attack style has 70+ possession? This is new. The current players are suited for which style sef?

Lana1:
Ok. He should keep on using Lingard?

Leyqute:


He’ll play on the RW and create chances from there. Leave one of Martial or Rashford out. They’re both inconsistent.

larride:


Have you forgotten the arguments we had concerning this last season?

The words we were hearing last season was “Mou is holding them back” “Mou is too defensive minded” “Mou is not allowing them to enjoy themselves”. It’s very painful I’m not too good with digging out post. Even the Maguire we bought this season, I remember Mou going for him and the wailing that accompany it.

Maybe postdigger can help.

You criticized everybody in that post and your apere keeper no dey inside, your Ole legend dey missing too, but make we blame the celebration of james king Kong for the L in front your moniker and the one wey manU chop, no be so? Atole Oshe aka Mr shalaye

eph12:

Exactly what I was trying to point out to Lana. I'm not sure greenwood can play that role Lingard is currently playing and for someone so young, it may affect his growth

eph12:

Left to me, Pogba has no business playing from deep. He's our most creative player, probably the only one. In France there's grizzy, Mbappe etc that can create something out of nothing. We don't have that here. He should be part of the front 3 or just behind them, not from deep

Leyqute:


Keeper dey concede goals, na normal thing. Coach go do him own, e remain make players do their own for pitch.

Epa Diggz u sure say dem no dey disturb your thinking network for village so?

man u board Na fool. Even me wey nor Dey support Man U know say pogba struggles when used as cm or box to box. Them suppose don sign quality cm so that pogba can play where he is good at which is attacking midfielder

You sabi this one but wan kill pikin wey never learn how to waka finish,abi?

Mc shalaye! The palace win don do severe damage to your brain finish

Abi o

70% possession is counterattack.

Possession football wey Rashford and co never play in 3 years. It’ll take time before they adjust.

What style of play did LVG and Mou play?

eph12:

It's even worse when you consider that he's the only creative player in the team. He's strong, he can draw fowls, he can beat his man and he has nice through passes. Yes he loses the ball but with two guys behind him good at retrieving and passing, Pogba will do well. They went to bring Fred that can't pass

eph12:

We controlled the game but players weren't daring last season. You had a coach that will leave you out to dry in the press if you make a mistake, how do you want to go all out and try something? The team was playing like they are strangers, from defense to attack. They couldn't string passes, they didn't understand each other. There was already a feeling of two sides in the dressing room. The ones that would always get the stick vs the ones that could do no wrong.

You're an old timer here but have refused to see reason. Common sense should let us know that no coach will be pleased with this current team, definitely not OGS. But because he didn't say so in the press you are pissed at him. He gave young the captain and threw him to the bench. The same Rojo that they claim is in OGS plans is who is looking for another club. Jones and Smalling are no where near the first team. He doesn't say anything negative in the press, that's who he is but he is working behind the scene to effect the changes. This is only quantum physics to those that have sworn not to see reason.

He wants players but the club is weary of being taken advantage of. This project is a work in progress and will take some time. I'm pissed that we couldn't settle the RW and CM positions but we have to look carefully at what the club is doing and understand it.

The same Mourinho that said he was pleased with Lukaku performance at the left back position is who you want us to use as reference. He never criticized Lukaku, Smalling, Young, but was always on Pogba, Martial and Shaw case. Please he is gone, amen to that

Van gaal played drab football and Mou played boring football

Those boys have not played possession football before, sir.

larride:


I don’t understand this one bit. So last season, we had a manager that didn’t allow them to enjoy themselves, what’s happening with the new manager then?

Everyone knows Mou to be a loud mouthed idîots and I’m only using him as a reference today because while the fans were turning on him last season and supporting the players, I had maintained that these set of players are shite also and not just the manager needs to go but we need to get quality players in. If you think 2 players will make a difference in this team, the result is what you are seeing.

One thing I want to get straight from you is this, who should we blame? The players or the manager or give them time to perfect this “style of play” as you pointed out in your other post.

eph12:
It was obvious from last season that this team was one of the laziest. OGS has tried to correct that. He has brought in better defenders. Next up is the midfield and attack. I expect this season to be a season of many fixes.
