Lyon will do bro, marsielle will also do

Is it not lyon that mancity could not beat last season?

Man city lost to crystal palace last season... does that mean crystal palace will easily trash most big teams in Europe too?

Danielnino00:


Trash them indeed.. If Lyon and PSG can easily trash most EPL teams,what's stopping them from trashing those smaller teams they face in the UCL?

When was the last time a ligue1 team even made it to the final of the UCL or UEL?

PSG could not hold onto an advantage of 2 away goals against a Man United that finish 7th in the league, he's talking of thrashing teams. I even honorably excluded PSG then he added Lyon and Marseille. Abegi. They won't do jack. Nonsense and condiments.

How Leon Balogun Moved From First Choice Central Defender To Fourth Choice In Super Eagles


The sharp decline in the international career of Brighton and Hove Albion defender Leon Balogun with the senior national team of Nigeria came as a surprise to many considering how well he made the team defend the past two years.

Fast forward to the last Africa Cup of Nations and the once reliable Balogun referred to as the brain behind the success of the “Oyibo Wall ” partnership with William Troost-Ekong lost his spot to Kenneth Omeruo.

Many will say the decision was based on his lack of game time at Brighton but one point to note is that he wasn’t that much a regular at Mainz 05 as well but kept his national team spot and excelled when he gets to play.

So what went wrong at the AFCON? According to a team source the coach unlike before where Balogun was his sole option due to the level he was playing in Germany as opposed to Kenneth Omeruo who was on loan in Turkey and Chidozie Awaziem who found it hard to make inroads into the first team of FC Porto.

With Omeruo cementing his spot at Leganes in the Laliga the season before the AFCON, the coach didn’t hesitate to drop Balogun even though he had his doubts on pairing Omeruo with Ekong. However the both players proved the manager right with two crucial goals that ended as the match winner.

Omeruo netted against Guinea while Ekong scored against South Africa in the second group game and quarter final respectively. Sandwiched in between their goals was Balogun’s error in the 0-2 defeat suffered against Madagascar.

The demotion to third choice central defender was something Balogun was beginning to accept until the last friendly game where Semi Ajayi was preferred to him in central defence in the absence of Omeruo in the starting lineup for the friendly game against Ukraine.

Ajayi was coming on the back of a strong start to life in the English Championship where he has excelled at West Brom following his move in the summer. He further cemented his growing legacy with another goal over the weekend while with every passing game Balogun isn’t close to making the matchday squad of Brighton.

leave Andrew... he just dislike the EPL... pretending to be a man city fan because of his MCM Guardiola

Ligue1 teams are piss poor in European competition.. just one title in ages!! Even the Dutch and Portuguese leagues have done better!

IMO, if u take out PSG from the French league, it would be on par with the Russian,Dutch and Portuguese league... Can the likes of Lyon and Marseille hold their own against Porto, Benfica,Ajax,PSV, CSKA, lokomotiv and spartak Moscow?

Don't use evasion tactics here... u assumed that because man city couldn't beat Lyon in UCL,Lyon can now trash every team in the EPL aside city and Liverpool... That means palace too can trash every team in the EPL too..cus they beat city at home...

They can't.

When was the last time a ligue1 team even made it to the final of the UCL or UEL?

Who is the smaller team they have faced in the ucl? Liverpool that they won nko, say liverpool na small team abi , you no even think this one at all

Did i even rate ligue 1 , i know you didnt read where i said epl is far ahead of ligue 1, your purpose is to attack me without reading

You are saying when last did french teams made it to the final of the champions league, lol , didnt it take the english teams 6 to 7 years to make it to the final after chelsea won it?

Marsielle made the 2017-2018 europa league finals loosing to Atletico , i know you forget this so soon because you wanna attack me

Take a chill pill oga

I am a man city fan and i am not pretending okay

I saw on goal that Chuba Akpom pledged his allegiance to Nigeria. Hope the guy is still good, he used to have good potential then

Many of these teams that lost or struggled used second string sides.

Arsenal used kids to trash Nothingham Forest who are doing great in the championship.

It's about quality and team progression and cohesion.

Chelsea is using kids to have a very successful campaign in the EPL currently.

West Ham had a strong team and so did Bournemouth as well as Manchester United. You win some you loose some cup games can be very unpredictable.

Manchester City's Pounded Yam boys?

African origin boys with athleticism speed and strength. Not boys eating potatoes but Yam.

U said they will trash every team in England except city and Liverpool

TheGoodJoe:


That is nice. Even more impressive is Rodrygo scoring on his debut for Real Madrid.

From the control to the goal, rodrygo's goal was a thing of beauty. thr guy is special and i feel he is a bit more technical than vini. I once read that zizou wants him to play as a 10 sometimes

U said d EPL is ahead of the ligue1 truly.. I saw that...but then u changed gear and said Lyon and PSG will thrash any team in the EPL except city and Liverpool.. that's a big fat lie!! PSG beat Liverpool in the UCL group stage and it didn't in any way affect our progression to the next round .its normal to lost group stage games . but after the group stage,what next? why aren't PSG and Lyon thrashing the teams they meet in the knockout stages?
Its a shame that France can only boost of one champions league winner and 4 finalists in many decades...

Almost every barca fan I know is a man city fan.. just like a lot of man utd fans claimed to be real Madrid fans (some have defected to juventus)

.. I understand

Yes i know france has always been poor in the champions league

As good as english teams are, you already know what they went through for years in the champions league, so dont make it look easy, Thanks to liverpool

Yes

So because Norwich beat Manchester city they should therefore win the EPL.

One game does not determine the quality of a team. It's the over all performance over the season.

How many French teams got to the last 16 of the Champions league and or the last 8. That gives you an insight into the over all quality of a league nit just the teams at the top.

andrew444:

Let's compare him to Onuachu... who do you think has the edge based on current form?

safarigirl:
oh, okay. Thanks for the clarification, I wasn't aware City had a lot of Pounded Yam boys

They and Liverpool have the highest number of Pounded Yam boys in thier youth teams. Right from the age of 5 years upwards.

In the North West of England.

Epl is miles ahead of the french league no need of all this long talk

Forget last 8 or round of 16, if liverpool no win this champions league i for compare una 2 together seems na that leg u wan draw
