Yes no "official" language, that doesn't mean you will find any government or administrative officials speaking any other language to address the press apart from English or in few cases Spanish.

Spanish is not just important but part of their curriculum, it's also a language they include in official documents.

Only 2 languages are used on official documents in the US, ENGLISH and SPANISH.

Every other languages are spoken unofficially or lets say informally.
tbaba1234:


We are saying two different things. Let me summarize what i have said

1. There is no official language,

2. Spanish is an important language because of the closeness of the US to Latino neighbors. Several states have large spanish speaking populations

3. Naturally, Spanish is less important in areas with larger populations of other immigrants.



Nationally, no official language.
but on state level, 31 states have English as their official language with like 6 more states planning to come on board.

AMR- attacking midfielder (right)

AMC- attacking midfielder (central)

AML- attacking midfielder (left)

Sir Metallic... Biko what is complex and false about this simple description now? undecided

Just say you have never heard of the terms. Not insisting that they do not exist when they actually do. I don try for you ooooo....


There's nothing such as AMC or AML in football. They are inappropriate. And no three letters except RWB and LWB (right wing back and left wing back).
LCB and RCB.


These are all the availably possible positions in football.

Say what? grin grin grin

Most official documents in the US contain both English and Spanish languages. enough said, do your research.


It's not just Mexicans, [b]North [/b]America is filled with alot of Spanish speaking people/countries. There are more Spanish speaking countries than English in North America (Not saying Spanish speakers are more in population.
forgiveness:


Spanish is not a general language in US though we have a lot of Mexicans speaking it there.

There are only a handful of activities that allow for legally using languages other than English. These are the areas covered by law:

1. Immigration procedures: This includes all languages as people come from all over the world
2. Court trial: When a defendant does not speak English
3. Voting: In areas where speakers of other languages are large, you have bilingual ballot boxes.. So If the population is mainly Arabic, you will have ballot boxes in that language
4. Migrant Health.

Spanish is the most spoken Language so you are likely to see it in many documents. It does not make it the only Language that can be used.

This is my prefared World Cup list. And I'm sure that the actual one that will be released by Rohr won't be very defferent from it.

GOALKEEPERS: (in no particular order because its the only department that is very much up for ravish by any personnel. About Akpeyi, I still believe he will make the cut but not as first choice because of his exploits at club level. And he will likely get over his psychological issues and lack roof confidence wearing the green jersey)
Ezenwa, Uzoho, Akpeyi.


DEFENDERS: Ekong. Balogun. Awaziem. Shehu. Aina. Idowu. Omeruo. Ebuehi


MIDFIELDERs: Mikel. Ogu. Ndidi. Etebo. Onazi. Joel


FORWARDS: Iheanacho. Moses. Ighalo. S.Moses. Iwobi. Musa

I totally unassumed Joel Obi's injury concerns which earned him the inclusion, with his undisputed quality and how much potency that he brings to our midfield.


Onyekuru Is another talent worth mentioning but his present injury issue which could affect his impressive form and jeopardize his World Cup chances, coupled with his inability to impress Rohr when he was called upon ruled him out for me.

This is the most likely squad we gonna take to Russia. To be candid this list is about 85% to 90% sure all things being equal...

He played for USA at the last U-17 world cup (2017) and even scored a hat trick I think in one of the games.
And Liberia is not so big on football shaa... So uhmmm... Well... But that doesn't mean a couple of Liberians won't be grumbling. Lol...

Well i used that word to accommodate those who think Echiejile is no longer useful because of his current clubbing activities. We can only talk here sir but that won't change what the coach sees or plan to do. If he thinks Elderson is in his plans, nothing except injuries or total loss of form will stop him.

Best and quality players aren't really what all coaches want, rather people they believe can play to their plans and directives.

We have seen good players being dropped by various countries all over the world, so it has nothing to do with Nigeria or Rohr. it's a coaching thing.

Sharp knife is not always good for everything, sometimes you use a not so sharp knife depending on what you want to achieve with it .

Honestly Nigerian Team even without much super stars seem to be a balanced one. It's a hard call, but i give it to the attack due to their pace.. Nigerian attack on a good day can run down any team. I'm not exaggerating!

I actually thought I was alone on this. I don't see why that guy shouldn't be playing in the he championship. He is so poor. I would pick Omeruo ahead of him seriously
that guy can't trap ball one time. How chelsea spend that much on him despite having better players baffles me.

Original Liberians were former slaves who returned from America hence the similarities in flags. Also the boy is the president's son, he should play senior football for Liberia.

I hate Chelsea with passion since they started becoming the enemy of Nigeria.

Always destroying our players, turning them to something else.

First was Mikel, now Moses. Why?

Why would a nice winger like Moses be turned to a defender that can't even aim at goal?

see, everything is discussed here. When tbaba had a baby, why didn't you say the family section exists?

We did not get to over 2k pages by discussing only football, shey you know?

Anything that comes up in the process of discussion can pass as long as it doesn't extend past that one day.

We're like a family here, if someone needs
money or even a job, we have gotten to the point where they can even come here and ask....that is how far we have come and we won't send him to job section.

Football may be what brought us together, but we are not limited to it.

On Awaziem against Marseille

Positives- He was vertile, a natural central defender but can play left back or right back
He was a good header of a ball,good in heading- in set-pieces
A solid man-marker...took out Thauvin except for that last gasp goal...my o my...96th minutes..heatbreaking
A decent tackler. Tackles,clearances and duels were done with finesse[ compare with Taribo West aka mongaru tutti]
He uses both feet,but majorly the right.
Negative- He did not bomb forward,didnt initiate any counter attack except for one, once,he desperately kick out a ball...for a doomed counter
attack by Nantes
The goal Marseille scored ,though he deflected the ball for a corner, as a left back he should have stayed put at that left
goalpost[during
corners,left and right backs stay at their respective goalpost and goal line]Awaziem did not do this. Though there two other
defenders with him there,it was his duty to remain and kick out any goal bound shot.

Above all,we have an elegant centre back to last a decade!!!
