Let me see some PL fanboy call another league a farmers league :mjlol:
One team just starts moving around like Barca and Madrid, suddenly it’s no longer competitive at the top :mjlol:

The Premier League ain't a farmers league because one team has built the perfect football corporation. :yeshrug:

Liverpool have challenged twice (huge points total on both occasions, winning once). Both Chelsea and Liverpool have won a European Cup (each running through City in the process to do it).

How would current Chelsea and Liverpool do in every other league in Europe? Answer that playboy.

Nikkas gonna be saying this in the 4th year :mjlol:


Come on bruh

I don't know what you guys are expecting from a player whose gone from playing most of the time on the counter and in transitions with freedom to roam to majority possession less space and having to maintain their position. Grealish is performing it's just not what you and others want from him.

So what we hoping to see team wise my fellow Naijas :jbhmm:


I wanna see some rotation, in 2 minds about Chuk, would like to see Ejuke get a start but at the same time think he needs the chance to redeem himself and it’s hard to drop Simon after his last game. Alex needs some proper minutes too and Henry. Want Uzoho to start in nets but that won’t happen :mjcry: hopefully with group wrapped up he gets a go in the last match. Word is Eguavoen is a big fan of Ndah so would expect to see him get some burn in this one too.

No hypotheticals here breh. You can never predict how one team will perform in another league… what we can all see clear as day is one team slapping everyone around.

That shyt was competitive because no one was head and shoulders above everyone.. now there’s a big boy in town, and the whole world can see it :umad:

Heard Chukwueze might be on the bench.

And Chelsea spent 100m on a proven goalscorer who has only turned up vs Villa this season. See how that works.

If you understand what Pep wants from his wingers then Grealish is doing his job. If you're looking it strictly as a numbers fantasy football whore then no. People forget that part of the reason why Sterling and Mahrez got dropped in the past because they werent doing their wing duties properly over dribbling.

Pep system is the most complex in football and people expect someone who has never been anywhere close to it in their career before to take to it to a duck to water.

No attacker has come to City and hit the ground running in the Pep era except for Gabriel Jesus and he's been inconsistent after his hot start.

I thought Grealish did decent today, if Kepa doesn't save that the entire narrative changes. But I understand why people want to pile on Grealish, he's the most expensive English player ever. However Chelsea and United have expensive flops hiding in plain sight and by the time the media starts to ask questions about them, Grealish will be contributing on a regular basis.
