You rate the Scottish league so low. Aribo plays for a team that participates in European competitions, no League1 club would ever do, so?

No League1 player would be invited to the SE, remember, Maja had to join Bordeaux before getting a call up

Actually Maja was already invited to the SE when he was playing in league one along with Eze unjustified at THAT TIME in my opinion.

Thats been the general consensus for many years. In General the Scottish Premier league is on the level of League one.

The vast majority of transfers to Scottish premier league come from league one.

No league one club will get the opportunity.

Welsh league, Cymru Premier plays in Europe does that therefore make them better than the championship, League one, etc. From my position I will place Cymru a bit below the National league in general.

It's obvious you simply lack knowledge and from a position of no knowledge you are getting indignant.

When we look at individual club ratings in Europe becomes a different measurement. And you will find Glasgow and Celtic above average.

A comparison cannot be made with the Championship and or league one clubs because they rarely play in Europe unless they win the Cup competitions.

I dont think it's about league because if we can invite players from the very lowly rated Cyprus league as well as the Isreal league and Nordic leagues. Which have a rating in excess of 20 ➕ below the EPL. Which league one will clearly compete with and possibly be better.

Nonetheless, l prefer my long standing proposition, It is better to be a Lion in a lower league and club than an anonymous mouse in a top club and league.

Dele Alli went from league one with MK dons to Tottenham and England all in one season.

Fee ‘shouldn’t be a problem’ as Liverpool compete for €80m forward



Liverpool are set to compete with Napoli for the signing of Lille forward Victor Osimhen, according to reports in France.

Osimhen has attracted interest throughout Europe after scoring 18 goals in 38 appearances during his breakthrough season in France.

The 21-year-old sat joint-fourth in the Ligue Un goalscoring charts, level with Neymar, before the season was curtailed due to the global pandemic.

Osimhen had impressed enough to be named as a ‘priority’ target for Man Utd this summer, while Inter Milan are among the continental clubs keeping a watchful eye on developments.

Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham have all also been linked with a reported £75m bid received for the Nigeria international in recent months.

There have been rumours in France recently that Napoli have tabled a €80m (£72.2m) offer for Osimhen but people close to the Serie A side reckon it’s much nearer €40m.

And nowL’Equipe (via Sport Witness) claims that Jurgen Klopp is ‘very interested’ in signing Osimhen although the report doesn’t say that Liverpool have made a bid yet.

The French publication adds that the fee for the Nigeria international ‘shouldn’t be a problem’ for Liverpool despite Klopp saying yesterday that he cannot spend “millions and millions” on squad reinforcements.

L’Equipe believe Napoli could pay as much as €80m before bonuses, an amount which will likely be disputed in Italy.

I know football is a contact sport. I know it wasn't the intention of Semedo to tackle Carrasco. But since Semedo's inadvertent contact with Carrasco caused him to lose his balance, that act prevented Carrasco from being in a one-on-one situation with the goalkeeper or squaring the ball to his teammate to score, then it will be a penalty.
Also, VAR would have looked it up and if it wasn't supposed to be a penalty, it would have been ruled out.


Semedo's inadvertent contact??
"Semedo's inadvertent contact" wasn't even the major cause, carrasco right foot was placed across his body causing him to fall as soon as his left leg touched it,watch the video very well,he was trying to turn and face the goal properly when "Semedo's inadvertent contact" happened before his right leg caused him to fall.

And is it the var that gifted Royal Madrid a penalty the other day u re talking about

Official! Bukayo Saka signs Long term Arsenal extension.
Contract taken care of. 4 years deal. Arsenal can expect more assists from the lad. He is now available to assist for the long run. grin


He tweeted:

"London is my home. Arsenal my team. I’m so happy to finally announce my contract extension. I love playing for this club and I’m looking forward to what the future holds.. The hard work continues so I can continue living my dream. God is Great !!"

The contact is the main thing here, carassco was already on the run and away from semedo at his back
Tackle or not, Carassco was on his way to score and he was tripped even though it was an accident

So semedo should have kept his distance so as not to make that light contact that will trip carrasco.

U were moving with the ball, I followed u, ur booth hit my knee, instead of me to fall and start rolling on the floor in pains, u fell down yakata like mango tree, at the end of the day I was punished for doing notin.

This isn't the first time a penalty of that nature would be awarded in a football match na..

I don't think you would complain about it if it was Barca that benefited from it...

Of course i won't complain, but I will also not call it a penalty when it's not.My argument is if its a penalty or not which it clearly isn't.

I response to ur 1st paragraph, I tot the introduction of var was meant to put an end to calls of this nature

That is why he has not rejected it, he is expecting a bidding war between Lille and Monaco. Genk not Gent cannot match the financial power of the French.

Hehehehehe... Sadika is in demand. grin

I hope Partizan can reach a compromise eventually abeg. I need Sadiq sealing a deal this summer to Ligue 1 preferably.

And Monaco released Slimani alongside a couple of others. They didn't want to make the deal permanent. I understand it was for financial reasons. It's no surprise they are in hot pursuit even when I expected Lille to be more serious seeing that they are losing both Remy and Osimhen. Although they got a back-from-injury Timothy Weah but that's not enough.



I would have preferred Lille because Monaco are very desperate to go back to the top and would not give a 10M signing a second chance if he doesn't adapt quickly. Dude needs to make the right decision here.

Contact sport doesn't justify anything, he was already past semedo why should there be any contact again? The contact that is expected from there on is ball slapping the net

Was he meant to stand and watch cara take a shot, or he was meant to start shouting "clear road oo,make una clear road, ma carrasco dey come",so that he and his team mate won't interfere with carrasco's play in other to prevent him from tripping.

Of course he was going to make a tackle nw,but did he?No.Semedo simply didn't want to make that tackle from behind so he was running down to carrasco right side, carrasco on the other hand was trying to turn slightly so he can comfortably use his left leg, it was as if they were interchanging sides, carrasco's misplaced right foot caused all this but semedo was blamed for trying to carry his defensive duties.

And carrasco was on the extreme left,he wasn't face to face with the goal keeper,there were still other players in front of him so he wasn't clear on goal.
