  1. People suggested this about him. Not the only place I heard this from. This is a common problem in countries such as Nigeria and Ghana. Hope this is not the case with Omeruo. IMO has a young face and hopefully is the real age. People use to say the same thing about Moses as he was a big beast when he was around 16 years old. It goes on though sadly.
  2. Worse than Torres right now
  3. Don't care about the performance. We got the 3 points which is vitally important.
  4. Demba Ba has only 1 in 10 Time to bang in one or two today, sure he will
  5. Maybe he has got a point in some of his outburst. Roman must look really stupid now as well sacking RDM and hiring Benitez. Was a stupid move which has backfired big time. I hope who ever Roman appoints next, he just sticks with them because all of this swapping managers if they have a dip in form is just getting beyond a comedy matter. However regarding Rafa his stint at Chelsea and his outburst will not help him get a job in the future, I am sure. Look at the way he went out of Liverpool blaming everyone but himself. Then he dismantled the Inter treble winning side almost immediately and was tactically inept over there, despite having one of the best squads in Europe at the time. Now he has taken a talented Chelsea side backwards, and that's apparently not his fault either. This is why he was out of work for 2 years and why he will be again and good riddance. I am sure he slyly laughs and curses Chelsea fans and the board with his family at home, but anyway good riddance he is leaving. However, Roman please learn from your mistakes in appointing a manager who was never wanted here and the worse thing is you brought in a manager who fans did not like while sacking a legend. Disgraceful!

  7. He is an Arsenal fan, boooo! We got the right Lukaku lol.
  8. Just scored for Colchester. Quite a decent player when I have seen him play for the U21s. Quite versatile to which might help him.
  9. We are at home to WBA. I expect a win 100%, nothing else. We are at home to West Ham as well. Definite wins, from all thems games I mentioned. Our record against them motivates me to think we will win them games.
  10. Being in the Europa League is a hindrance to our season and it is something that other rivals such as Arsenal, similar to last season might capitalize on, albeit that this time we have no opportunity to turn to the Champions League if we do not finish top 4. The extra games of the Europa League is making players more tired and just adding congested fixtures which is not good for us as our depth is not brilliant. It is vital we finish top 4 this season. Major consequences if we do not. Good that Spurs and Arsenal are playing each other next week. We can take advantage on one of them, if not both of them. We cannot take anything for granted because we have slipped up in games we should have won before but on paper our next set of fixtures are definitely ones where I would say we are better than our opponent and should be winning. West Brom, Fulham, West Ham, Southampton, Sunderland, Spurs at home (our record at home against them is excellent) are our next set of fixtures. Realistically we can get maximum points from every single game here, however we are so inconsistent and there is bound to be some slip up in one of these games unfortunately.
  11. He would be better of, or is better off in a 4-3-3 formations. You would get more goals from him but yes with the 4-2-3-1 formation, I agree with you, sometimes he doesnt suit our general play. However even his quite robust game, I like him in the fact that he offers goals and is one of them players who draws us many penalties due to his pace and unpredictability. The amount of times he has won us a penalty is countless. Next season I hope any manager who comes fits him, into our plans, in a way where we can get the best out of him.
  12. How has that got anything to do with Ramires? Yes he has his flaws, but defence is something different. While he has played RW before Rafa played him in an unfamiliar position. When Ramires was in the CM position against Arsenal he had an excellent game. Today he was on the right and it flopped. The problem lies way past Ramires, believe me.
  13. He has scored quite a few goals, i don't need to remind you about the others. Also remember this pass for Cole that lead to Drogba's goal plus the determination to win the ball back? No creativity? Not as bad as you make him out to be. I wish we had more players like him.
  14. His goal against Wigan a few weeks ago in the 4-1 win technically brilliant as well. The composure he showed to finish off that goal was excellent.
  15. He was poor today for sure, but beforehand many of us would of said he is useful for this type of game, where we are going to get dominated in possession. Previous encounters against City he has been excellent, one I remember that solo goal he scored. However if we took him out of the team, we would be missing a huge player. He contributes goals, gives 100% and makes some vital interceptions and has one of the best work rates in the Premier League, if not the best. Both matches against Arsenal this season he was arguably our MOTM. There are many others problems apart from Ramires that need to be looked at because as far as I see it he is a vital player for us.
  16. Some of the comments after one loss really piss me off sometimes. He is not a world class defender and Aguero got past him a couple times, but he would have easily done the same to Terry, who is much slower and has been exposed to fast players many times. I am not going to say Cahill was brilliant but he made some vital interceptions, headed away many crosses and if it was not for him we could have conceded more. Look at his overall performance and the blocks he made. He was at least one I would say played decent today.
  17. So here comes all the bullshit after one bad game. Everyone was bad today IMO. But all of a sudden, Ramires has a bad game and he is not good enough for the club. Bullshit. Please just look at the things he has done for the club before saying he is not good enough. Now all of a sudden the previous post states Ramires should play against the weak teams, contradictory. Was not that what people were saying he should be used for the big games? Please just look at what he has done against the 'bigger teams' before we state he is not good enough.
  18. Look it is clear that most of (including me), would prefer Lukaku over Torres, and during the summer I wanted him to stay with us however the loan works for both us and the player. Had he been here, he would have stalled due to not being a prominent fixture in the team, like last season. But he got his loan to West Brom with a good manager who has helped him develop. Lukaku is getting regular football with lower expectations and he has proved himself. While it is annoying to think he is outperforming our strikers, he is going to come back a much better player. Imagine we had kept him here, like last season, would have been awful. He did not manage a league goal last season and going out loan was a good choice. If you asked me who would I prefer as our no.1 striker right now I would want Lukaku, but would I want to abort the loan? No way, he is improving down there and will benefit him to return in the summer, providing we have our long term manager and transfer plans sorted out.
  19. Has guided Watford to 2nd place in the table. Yes, he made tons of loan signings but to gel a team of players who do not know each other into a team of winners and chasing promotion is excellent. One of the youngest managers around and is over exceeding expectations at Vicarage Road. Just hope he can guide Watford in the Prem.
  20. Why Tottenham beat Arsenal? A draw is the best result for that game.
  21. Not only is he scoring, he is a nightmare to defenders, never letting them lest on their laurels like Drogba was, complete powerhouse. He will thrive here next season if given the chance, I am sure.
  22. KDB scores for 10 men Werder, nice once!!!
