Edopesin:


this one sef no , Atletico came to defend their one goal advantage ignoring the fact that Atletico are also a defensive team

I no this one

Lol i agree say that one no

Even eibar and others small laliga teams used to have possession over atletico , let alone liverpool

Subzero047:


Is it the final against Madrid or the semi final against Bayern Munich

TheGoodJoe:


This too.

Liverpool dominate a weakened Leicester

What a news

I no this one

Atletico Madrid do not follow at all.

Very annoying team.

Liverpool dominate Norwich

I've basically said that the superior team will always dominate but that does not change their style of play

Liverpool have an average 59.7% possession this season according to whoscored, that's not saying much IMO

The same Leicester City that gave arsenal a lesson below.

That is a very high percentage. Shows a lot of the possessive strength of Liverpool. I think the debate ended here.

Leicester without Ndidi? Even Norwich dominated them

How about the first leg they played?

Does not change the status of the team. Or is Ndidi not their player again?

Man City are better with 61.6%

Fine , leicester will always miss ndidi, but sorry it doesnt change the team

Is vardy not upfront there ?

Mancity are better than liverpool with possession, that one no need make we talk am self

Leicester won only one of the 6 matches they played without Ndidi losing to Norwich, Aston Villa and Southampton

Weren't you aware?

They have still lost games with ndidi also

And yes ndidi is important .

sheyishemba:


if you study kloop play very well you will notice he plays an attacking play but some times can hit on counter attack that if they have the chance but Liverpool relies on counter attacker thats a huge lie
liverpool attack like their live depends Liverpool use all their player to attack expect Gomez ,van djik, milner and Henderson these player cover up the defense with milner and Henderson provuding cover for Robertson and Arnold
thats just Liverpool tactics they engage all of their players to attacking thats why in all of van djik goals he hardly scores with foot most of his goals are headed goals from set pieces

You are spot on..

Most times when Gomez starts he is usually the only one left in our half when the team is attacking...

Liverpool midfield set up isn't primarily for creating chances. It is to provide cover for the overlapping full backs.. We had to revert to that style after Coutinho left..

Though sometimes Keita and OX are required to provide creativity for the midfield when the need arises...

ChrisKels:


We talking present while you dwelling in the past. By the way, when and how did Simon single handedly win the Belgian league

Present as in the quarantine league or what?


I was talking. 2014/2015. His impact was immense that season. Might not have been single handedly but he surely was the biggest hand. That should not be up for debate.

Make una dey drink panadol for Gernot Rohr. SE will neither play gengenpress nor Guiardiola football. It’s just like saying he will bench his regulars for newbies abi?

That's good. But he's still got a lot to do as a leftback. Though decent going forward.

Ajayi is brilliant but also Ekong was brilliant playing the ball at the Olympics with Siasia. I think the system of the current Super Eagles have held Ekong back. He was a joy to watch at the Olympics.

Watching him at the Olympics, I telling everyone who cared to listen that the guy would be a solid member of the team in the time to come

Subzero047:


Is it also the system hindering Ekong at Udinese? You forgot that Olympics was 8 years ago and a lot of dynamics have changed since then

The last Olympics was 4 years ago, not 8

Thats not even the worst.

For me the proverbial " dirty slap in the face" to black players is Lee Bowyer and Joey Barton both of them essentially racist thugs.

Joey Barton is a hooligan but despite all his misdemeanours which are present continous fighting other managers, etc . As soon as he finishes football his in management within months.

See screen shot about his brother below.

I kinda liked Joey Barton back then though.

Ah tell u.

Dude ain't scared of no one.

one match between Man City and QPR, He stepped on Tevez's leg and was red carded, after receiving the red card, he went on to kick Tevez who was still on the ground. Balotelli had to be held back then, he wanted fighting off Barton and Barton wasn't scared to confront him.

He said he did that because tevez was bullying the young qpr player who should be 20 or so then
