Raul albiol is not finished, someone that is still making the spain team is not finished sir

I wonder how you watch your football most times

Because a player is 34 means he is finished abi?

Na wa for you

Go and tell conte or sarri that godin or chiellini is finished

You sef calm down to understand his context

Stop jumping into things like Ese Brume

What he was trying to say is that they could have used the money they spent on albiol for a younger and more agile defender who was just as good

Villareal relegated this season?

You are not serious sir

When they started poorly last season is that not what almost all of you said?

Now they started well and you are saying relegation, a team with just 10 points difference from the top and you are here saying relegation

Ok

Instead of running helter skelter, get the point. The French were not playing fair. I think a player was injured by them in a game before our match. They had injured Onazi and Ambrose. Azeez winning ballon d'or would not in any way help when the opposition was not playing fair. The solution was to try to match them in physical strength which Azeez offers none in that respect.

It would have been a slaughter and Mikel was right stopping it. We lost the game as soon as we lost the legs of Ambrose and Onazi. Not as soon as Ruben came on.

At the end of the day, the kwatankwa tactics was not the solution.

Perhaps, tell us how we controlled the game with smallish Onazi. Was he also physical?

Keshi messed up big time for playing Reuben who was match rustic. As soon as he entered, we were bombarded left right center. EOD

Oga, a good defender from a top academy can be bought

In fact, they could even graduate one from their own academy.....for free

Did I say they can't. I am we already had Onazi, Babatunde and Azeez. We had a big option in Mikel and needed another big option. That was why Ruben was carried along. He was not the preferred choice for the sub but had to come in for the physicality.

You mean we needed physicality because it was wrestling hence ability, fitness, agility, skills, etc were not needed?

No wonder when he entered, we were one man down.

Between me and you, who watched Martins playing for Inter? Na wa. My team in Italy is Inter Milan because of Kanu. I watched Martins well at Inter.

By the way, I wonder the person that said Martins and Emenike are the same height.
I just checked.

Martins is 1.7m and Emenike is 1.82m.

You didn't watch. Because if you did, you wouldn't have talked about Marrins not suitable for long balls. Gbam

You are missing the point. It is not playing Uche but how he wanted to use him. When it comes to hitmen, Keshi used and liked Shola Ameobi, Bright Dike, Ideye, Emenike to some extent, Anichebe, Aaron Samuel and Osaguona. They were important for his long ball approach and keeping the ball in the offensive end when attacking.

He could use them just as he used Musa but they were not the direction of play and were not priority to his attack.

How come with all those giant hit men, Ike scored more goals than them in the AFCON qualifiers with the same so called long balls you said Martins can't fit into?

this one is beach soccer, not field. We have no structure for beach soccer

It would be hard to beat Canada in Ice Hockey, but Field Hockey is a different story.

Two Premier League clubs are reportedly monitoring the situation of Wolverhampton Wanderers' Owen Otasowie with a view to a summer swoop for the Nigerian box-to-box midfielder

According to the online edition of The Sun UK, Arsenal and Liverpool are monitoring his progress at the Molineux Stadium, knowing full well that he comes off contract at the end of the 2019-2020 season.

The report also claims that French champions Paris Saint-Germain and Bundesliga outfit Schalke 04 also hold an interest in Otasowie.

The 18-year-old caught the eye of PSG after starring against them as Wolves were held to a 1-1 draw in a Premier League International Cup on Wednesday, November 20.

A product of local side Mass Elite Academy, the promising teenager is also comfortable playing as a central defender.

This season, Otasowie has featured four times for Wolverhampton Wanderers U23s in the Premier League 2 and was in action against Football League clubs Morecambe and Blackpool in the EFL Trophy.

He is eligible to represent England and United States apart from Nigeria.

Celta Vigo ended their poor run of five consecutive defeats after beating Villarreal 3-1 at Estadio de la Ceramica on Sunday evening.

Pione Sisto opened the scoring for the Galician club in the 54th minute but the lead lasted less than six minutes as Samuel Chukwueze equalised after a lovely team build-up for the finish.

Two goals from Iago Aspas in the final ten minutes secured a win for Oscar Garcia's side.

Speaking as a pundit on La Liga TV after the game, Spanish football expert Guillem Balagué singled out Chukwueze and Gerard Moreno for special praise.

He said : ''Villarreal came back, pretty quickly as well, with Samuel Chukwueze who was with Gerard Moreno, perhaps, the best players.

''After this they disappeared a little bit. It was a combination that started right at the back, it must have been 20 odd passes before the move that actually opened up the opportunity.

''But the thing that turned things around when it was really balanced, you didn't know where the game was going, was a bit of luck that went Celta's way. ''

Chuwkueze, who was today nominated for the African Youth Player of the Year, has scored three goals in La Liga this season after 13 appearances.

It's not even the financial clout it's the scouting ability

Carlos Bacca and Toto Ekambi cost a lot but there are other alternatives that would have been better and cost less

They even got a finished Raul Albiol in defence

Exactly it not about having alot of money to buy players
I still rate sheyi ojo better than carpenter ekambi
The nigga is damn too poor you don't how to score and you're still selfish with passes.... The dude nah confirm carpenter Cc darkelf
