Reference:You forgot that the Champions League can be won by any team and to show how great you are as a coach you have to consistently win your league, something Pep is set to do in the EPL. If you consistently win your league and occasionally do the Champions League then you are great because no one team has ever won the Champions League the ways certain teams have dominated their leagues. At first, people like you said Pep's style would be useless in the almighty EPL, but now your bias has made you dig up another excuse that he can't win the Champions League. You compared Pep's unchanging style to viruses' mutation in order to say viruses are so successful because of their mutation but you forget that the circumstances surrounding viruses and those surrounding Pep in football might be dissimilar. Hence, your comparison might just be irrational. Be careful when you use an analogy. What does it tell you now that Pep has won the EPL after so many EPL fans said Pep's style would not work in the EPL? You have only succeeded in limiting Pep's chances the way too or so many EPL fans did even if they have now been shocked as Pep did not just win the EPL but won it setting a number of records, playing the style that they said even Stoke City would show would not work. I think EPL fans who thought Pep would not succeed in the EPL should bury their heads in shame. 2 Likes |

prejulsuc:Schools abroad usually require applicants to take a standardized test, the GRE is an example, before they are admitted. Schools then set their required scores for admission and the required scores to be eligible for scholarship. If your application meets up with the scholarship requirements, then all or part of your school fees will be waived, monthly allowance will be given, and if you perform well after the first semester, you will be given graduate assistantship from which you will also earn money. If you check the websites of the schools, you will see their requirements for scholarship admissions. You can do this yourself. 1 Like |

Sports / Anthony Joshua Vs Joseph Parker Heavyweight Fight Confirmed For March 31 by phoenixthefirst(m): 9:14pm On Jan 14, 2018 |
The three-belt heavyweight unification fight between Britain's Anthony Joshua and New Zealand's Joseph Parker will take place at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on March 31 on Sky Sports Box Office, it was confirmed this morning. Joshua and Parker agreed to put their IBF, WBA Super, IBO and WBO belts and unbeaten records on the line, putting the triumphant victor within touching distance of becoming the first undisputed heavyweight champion of the world since Lennox Lewis in 1999. After an intense two months of negotiation, the contest is expected to generate upwards of £35million. Parker told The Telegraph exclusively yesterday that he would "smash Joshua's glass chin". Joshua, of course, has other ideas. “I would like to announce the official news that myself and Joseph Parker will be fighting on March 31 at Principality Stadium in Cardiff. It is a unification heavyweight championship fight, we all know what happened last time I was in a unification heavyweight championship fight. It was gruelling, it was interesting and we both left the ring with masses of respect. “These fights aren’t easy because there is a lot on the line, so respect to team Parker for taking the challenge. And you know me, I love this game. I am looking forward to it, training camp is underway and before you know it March 31 will be upon us. Stay tuned for more news and I will see you all soon, God bless.” WBO champion Parker said he was relieved the contractual negotiations had now been concluded as he could now fully concentrate on the job in hand. “Anthony Joshua is in for a huge shock,” Parker said. “A couple of months ago I heard him say ‘why should I be worried about this little kid from New Zealand’? “Well, now he’s about to find out. And the world is about to find out whether AJ can really take a punch. My entire existence is now devoted to proving what the boxing world already knows.” Joshua returns to the scene of his last action in the ring, where Carlos Takam became his 20th win inside the distance from his 20 professional fights, the fourth defence of his IBF crown and first of the WBA Super and IBO belts he landed in his epic, dramatic battle with Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley Stadium last April. “I'm delighted to get this fight made – it’s been a long time coming,” said Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn. “Champions should fight Champions and AJ continues to step up to the challenges. “It's the first time in history that two reigning heavyweight world champions have met in Britain and it’s a classic match-up between two young, fast, undefeated belt holders and it’s going to be an explosive fight. This is another huge unification fight for Anthony as he continues to make history in the quest to become undisputed world heavyweight champion.” Parker’s last fight was his first in England as he defended his WBO belt for the second time, outpointing Hughie Fury, cousin of former world champion Tyson Fury, in Manchester in September, moving to 24-0 with the win. The 26-year-old became New Zealand’s first heavyweight world champion when he landed the WBO strap in December 2016 against the undefeated Mexican American star Andy Ruiz in Auckland. Parker had defended the crown for the first time against giant Romanian Razvan Cojanu last May. Parker’s promoter David Higgins paid tribute to Hearn and Matchroom Boxing for the up-front way they had handled negotiations. “Eddie has been great to work with from day one,” Higgins said. “I know we ruffled a few feathers along the way but, as Eddie acknowledged, when you come from a small country and people perceive you as a small player, sometimes you’ve got to make a bit of noise. “New Zealand might be a tiny country on the other side of the world but it has a hugely proud sporting tradition – and a particularly strong tradition when it comes to whipping mother England. https://www.google.com/amp/www.telegraph.co.uk/boxing/2018/01/14/anthony-joshua-vs-joseph-parker-heavyweight-fight-confirmed/amp/ Lalasticlala

SEARCHING FOR THE LAST FAITHFUL MAN SCENE ONE Mayé: ...I really don't know why! Délé: Everything is with at least a reason. Think deeply. Mayé: It's hard to think of one. Or I'm ashamed of it. Délé: This must be the only thing you can't fill me in. Mayé: The cause of my depression is a lady. Beautiful, but just like my wife. Good-mannered, just like my wife. Everything she has, just like my wife's. As I try to suppress the temptation and crush the crush, I fall over and become powerless. But I must fight it. Délé: You must fight cos you are the last faithful man. SCENE TWO (Mayé looking morose) Délé: Aduńmáadán obeys me. On your instruction, I will make you know her. Mayé: If it means death, I choose to remain faithful. Let Sango's thunder turn me to a furnace if I cheat on Títí, my sparkling angel. Délé: You would rather be dead? Mayé: Yes! SCENE THREE (Títí looks disconsolate) Délé: Did you say you are ready to do anything to save your beloved crown? Títí: Yes. Délé: Let your appearance turn you to Aduńmáadán. After this, meet your husband and know him. As Títí does this, Mayé succumbs in a series of interrupted moans. We are therefore on a search for the last faithful man! Lalasticlala |
