Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - 'We will not be there.' - Pep Fraudiola

I don't understand them loaning out Maitland-Niles when they knew they'd be without Partey and Elneny.

Poor planning really need to get someone in soon

 

[Premeditated]

I forgot Micheal Seri was Ivorian. Just imagine that midfield if it had Fofana

fukk that nikka though

regarding Dembele, he did alright yesterday, I guess. but still no where near his 17/18 season. That man was playing like prime Neymar in that first half of the season before going down. He still has his acceleration, dribbling and thorough balls, but he doesn't dance with the ball like he use too. hopefully he can regain that.
although he would suit the PL, I hope in stays at Barca. That el classico was fun to watch and Barca are not that bad. their midfield controlled the match with bunch of kids and a liability in Busquet(who they need to upgrade). Fati back that was probably the blackest el classico we've ever seen. Mendy going full Zidane in his own penalty box

That club is in absolute shambles

Spoiler

But they’ll still probably knock us out of CL

The players were bullying Ole like he was a supply teacher.

 

[Roberto Firmino]

Just what was needed

 

[Roberto Firmino]

We got goals today

 

[Ukbrotha]

what a start!

 

[African_brehda]

Can’t score in 90 minutes, but score 2 in 10 minutes when my money is involved?

 

[Ukbrotha]

Cameroon are feeling it today. Their passing looks sharp and crisp.

 

[Roberto Firmino]

Both these games it’s showed Onana hasn’t played, damn shame what’s happened with him.

 

[Roberto Firmino]

Tolo stuck the jets on



Some game we got brehs, no boring football isn’t his one

So when ranking the heavyweight footballing nations in Africa who we got

I feel like it's between Cameroon and Nigeria at Tier 1. I wanna add CIV, Egypt, Ghana and Algeria but Egypt doesn't really show up in the WC, Algeria really just got hot now after being cold for much of the 2000s. CIV hasn't shown up at the WC yet and even in AFCON they disappoint when you consider their talent. Ghana made the QF in 2010 but they've only made WC finals 3 times.....

Cmon breh, how are you gonna leave out Algeria when they are defending champions, unbeaten in 35 games etc. They are tier 1 until proven otherwise.

Also had a solid run in 2014 World Cup.

Put some respek on our football heard all the nonsense about boring football with no thought given to the fact teams haven’t even had a chance to work on stuff this been electric from the first minute

It’s us and Cameroon with Egypt just below due to their AFCON pedigree.

In recent times yes without a doubt but historically no.
