Iwobi's workrate has really improvved. The guy is everywhere
We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand
Roy Keane: ITV 02/25/14

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.
Gary Neville: Mirror: 12/23/14

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

Good point.
Osimhen raised his hand and admitted he didn’t read one great pass and a better first touch by Ade from Iwobi and he would have been in on goal

We need a third goal to kill the Rwandan desire off.

Iwobi is getting caught a bit far upfield. At 20 mins left and 2 goal lead, we need to be more compact knowing that one long ball could leave Osihmen 1 v 1 against their high line

Chukwueze should never be called up ever again, I think he has finally played himself out of any future callups...we've tried with this guy with all his boneheaded and frustrating outputs.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini.

Dude is tired! The intensity in the first half in the HOT SUN gassed a couple of our players out.

Why?
You want us to play a high line with no pressure on the ball? If anything we need to drop into a mid block and allow for room to run behind on the counter … we have a two goal lead!!
