Abeg make them leave matter for Mathias ooo.

Which one is being forced to play sideways and backwards due to lack of options in the attack again?

Aren't they Eleven Players every now and then?

And they still concede early Goals?

Does the Coach asked them not to open up to create spaces and options in the attack line?

When their adrenaline rush wouldn't even allow for the compact attacking Football that they are being asked to play?

Abi which Coach want to always concede and not want to win as well?

Maybe na one of those bench warmers dey talk sef undecided

I'm thinking its one of those that used to be a regular but was dropped. Or it could be a lie altogether

First and foremost this is not a Messi vs Ronaldo debate. Take that to your local beer parlor.

Did Barcelona beat Real Madrid 5-1 without Messi yes or no? If those players don't have to humble themselves and work for messi you would see that they have immense quality.

Oga basco you have a point, they do work for messi when they know he is there, but trust me if messi is no more it will be a different ball game

Barcelona have beaten madrid more than once without messi

Former Dutch international Raphael Van Der Vaart says Nigeria international defender William Troost-Ekong would have been a regular for the Dutch team now if he hadn’t committed to Nigeria.

The Udinese defender was eligible for Nigeria and the Netherlands but picked Nigeria where he made his debut in 2013 and has risen to the role of vice captain of the team.

Van Der Vaart who now works as a television pundit first had contact with the Nigerian during his formative years at Tottenham Hotspur and claimed he advised him to return back to the Netherlands when it was clear that he wasn’t suited to the style of play at the club.

Speaking on the rise of the defender who is now an established international with the senior national team of Nigeria, Van Der Vaart said if he hadn’t rushed in pledging his future to Nigeria he would have been a part of the Dutch set up.

” Ekong has improved but still need to work hard on some areas. A decent player who could have been part of the Dutch team but he wasn’t patient and played for Nigeria instead. You can’t fault his decision because he has played at major tournament with Nigeria “, Van Der Vaart concluded.

He would be in the dutch team but he wont be starting due to the emergence of Vandijk and de ligt, he will settle for a place on the bench.

Even stafan de vrij is on the bench, but i can bet you that ekong will always make the squad but not a starter

There are no much world class players in the netherland, if players from brighton, bournemouth , crystal palace, krasandor, wolfsburg can make the dutch team then i dont see a problem with a regular from udinese

I think you are the one engaging in beer parlour talk here. What am stating here is fact. You keep hammering that barca defeated Real Madrid 5-1, what about the matches they lose against mid table clubs in messi 's absence? How was Barca performing when he was injured at the start of the season? I know football is a team sport but don't come here saying Messi ,s teammates are the one working for him. No ,that is wrong. In fact, It goes the other way.
Am done with this argument anyway.

Are you referring to a tattered Madrid team under Julian Lopetegui? Anybody could beaten that team

Without Messi this season Barca would have been mid table

He won them the game away to Slavia Praha
He drew the game against Leganes
He won the game against Celta Vigo
He won the game against Atletico Madrid

So you see, it's not the team serving Messi rather Messi serving the team

I may catch a lot of flack for this but with the way things are currently going, I would say that Akpeyi is at the top of the goalkeeping pecking order.
