Unpopular opinion. Liverpool don win league. Man city don't have enough to make it to January without Laporte.

Odunayaw:
You can use formwork to support your head while you're shaking it.

How can't you comprehend that Monaco is the glittering substance I am talking about.
I still stand by my opinion that Monaco is a ship Onyekuru shouldn't have boarded.

@all on the matter of balance, here's a greater part of the article written by solace chukwu on the medium(take note of the bolded) https://medium.com/solace-on/now-that-we-are-born-again-part-1-bd0b2c6dd07a

You may have noticed that much of our play comes down the right side of the attack. I make it 8 of our 12 goals were a result of build-up/a passage of play from that flank. That is a staggering percentage. Two have come down the middle, two from the left (one of those a corner). See what’s wrong with this picture?

Victor Moses has the rights of democracy to roam wherever he pleases, creating overloads. He invariably drifts to the right to link up with Moses Simon, who holds width rigidly on that side, opening up the channel between the opposing full-back and the near-sided centre-back. Odion Ighalo as well tends more naturally that way, so we end up with a cluster.
Not to say there is anything wrong with this in and of itself. As a matter of fact, creating superiority in certain zones is the very key to unlocking defences. However, we won’t be playing Zambia, Cameroon and Algeria at the World Cup (no disrespect to them); what’s going to happen when teams realise we have no left-sided width?
The reason overloads work is that, in creating superiority in one zone, you force the opponent to commit more resources there in order not to be undermanned, weakening them somewhere else. You overload on one side, and you finish on the other where the opponent is now underloaded.
However, when our entire attacking band shifts over to one side, we have to have a threat on the other. Else, the opponent can simply commit one more player than we have in that zone and squeeze, safe in the knowledge that no one is taking advantage.
In theory, you want Elderson Echiejile pushing up into that area and holding the width on the left. The benefit of that goes beyond even attacks: once the ball is lost it, his presence in that advances area makes it impossible for the opponent to escape an immediate press by simply switching the ball to the far side.
As it is, our attacking play is quite blatantly unbalanced, and you can be sure whoever comes out of the hat for us at the World Cup will have noticed.

Laporte is not an excuse

Liverpool are favorite for now but i watched them dropped 7 points last season, i remember when i said city will win the league last season many here disagree with me because i started saying that from about when it was 7 to 10 point gap by liverpool

Never say never

timay:


You better don't bank on that.

The number of times Liverpool had bottled the league, is enough for them to be on 25 league titles by now. They are perpetual bottlers. Although this season might be different, but a professional gambler won't put their money on them

BascoVanVeli:


How good would Liverpool be without Virgil van Dijk? It is ridiculous to say Laporte is not an excuse

charlesemeka85:
That guy is the worst striker in the epl and I still wonder how he gets to start for a decent the like Everton. Na only jump and run em sabi

mostob:
Arsenal fans sef ..thank God Iwobi is no more with us,they would have blamed the poor boy yesterday. Don't sell Iwobi ,they said NO...OK where is the replacement? dem talk sey na Martina and Benson....
BTW Pepe is not shit... Emery is just being foolish.
Nonsense and okpotu.
All arsenal fans here should have it in mind that as long as Emery is still is charge,we ain't playing UCL. That man was cursed with Europa league.

jihday:
That's my boy

andrew444:


Even the Arsenal fans here do blame Iwobi not just the British ones Bt the ones on this super eagles thread

andrew444:


Because they are not playing well right now, if they have been doing well you would not say so

If osimhen lille have not been doing well i am sure you will also say the same, many of you would have been ranting that he should have stayed at chaleroi for 1 more season

Na una nah, Nigerians anywhere belle face, abi no be una wey i know for here, once super eagles loose or draw match una dey get 2000 mouth so am not surprised

jihday:
Shortly after the U-17 Osimhen was called up just to train with the eagles but Rhor was so impressed by what he saw that he decided to call him for subsequent games but when his career wasn't flying he was duly dropped. I can't see how that is a bad thing.

Odunayaw:
Monaco didn't play well last season and so we have a precedence to judge by, Lille had a better season last time and it'd have been a shock if they were poor this season. Just the way the fortunes of Villarreal was last season in comparison with their good past.

I don't know why you're diving in with your emotions and your 2000 mouth. My opinion remains the same as it was even while his transfer was still dicey.
There's nothing Monaco is offering him (I dare say will offer him- this season) that Galatasaray hasn't & won't give him.

andrew444:


So because Monaco didn't play well last season onyekuru should not join them

Clap for your self

If e no leave gala Na una go insult turkish league

Many of you guys here are already showing you belong to Nigeria league ,because Monaco is doing badly you guys are ranting

Please channel your opinion to the Nigerian league because that's the best for your anywhere belle face opinion

andrew444:


He is not, afterall pep won one of his leagues title without him, yes i know he is their best defender

With van dijk liverpool didnt win the league, liverpool are favorite as they are on top, but i will still wait till about 20 games

BascoVanVeli:


Well I don talk my own so it is left for time to prove me wrong or right.

chrisooblog:
after 5 matches? boss calm down remember two different years like that man city and chelsea won their first 6 fixtures but guess what? they both ended up not winning the league that year

TheSuperNerd:
Arsenal's Post-Iwobi era: Just for fun

Focus on David Luiz

For Chelsea:
160 Premier League games
3 penalties conceded


For Arsenal:
4 Premier League games
2 penalties conceded

David Luiz is learning fast. He's been studying hard. Currently on a book written by Shkodran Mustafi while Pepe keeps dancing Awilo in an arsenal shirt...
