Betting ehn, once u are lucky enough to win, run as fast as your leg can carry you but na lie. Devil go still use you. grin
I don't know why they never run. At least spend your winnings and stake with pittance.

I won't tell people not to gamble but just know when to Japa and don't over think it. People squander on other frivolous and unprofitable vices like materialistic women, club hopping, alcohol etc. I've lost a fair bit of money on stocks and I have a family friend who lost almost 90mil naira and caught stroke over legit business that went bad.

Early this year, my friends father sent my friend to go and collect the annual rent which one of their tenants was to remit.

So we drove there and collected the #320,000 from the tenant, upon collecting the money, he began posing and posting pictures of the cash online unto showoff levels cheesy

Playfully, I yabbed him that he will not go and work, he'll be posing with papa wealth. Na so my guy say make him play "just 2 odds" grin

I told him to not let devil use his brain for pepper soup. My guy no hear word say make we drive go bet shop say im go double the money that day, he was so confident such that that confidence rubbed on me.

On entering shop, he went straight for virtual. I still advised that this was wrong but even if he was to do this, virtual was very unpredictable.

My guy no here, went ahead and played 50k, the first one cut, na there im begin sweat immediately, grin
At that point, his head clicked that this was his fathers money and the desperation immediately set in to recover the one lost. na so my go play another 50k, in 2 mins, 100k don disappear grin

He felt like fainting, I go compl
Virtual of all things. Your friend must have a death wish. If he stayed there he would lose that 320k and drop his phone as collateral.

Not with betting. Why do you think that gambling companies don't go broke? Instead more keep springing up.

Gambling is addictive and that is very dangerous.
Very very. I saw a nigga use his wife's C.S operation money to gamble and play virtual. Seen a nigga try to sell a Bible to gamble

What I'd say is don't rely on gambling as a source of income. It's the absolute worst. If you must play for fun and stake what you can lose.

So PSG failed to get past the quarter finals of the champions league in recent years because they paraded bunch of over hyped players, right? smiley
Let's look at PSG critically and tell me what is outstanding apart from their attack. And yes I believe Zlatan and to a lesser extent Cavani is over hyped. I have never hid that

Don't compare PSG to England that supposedly have World best material from attack to defense

And I still say its his choice, as long as he is not committing a crime what he chooses to do with his time/life is his prerogative.
People have a propensity of trying to tell others how to live their lives. As far as I am concerned it is his time to spend however he chooses to, I might not like it but it is non of my business.
You're still missing the point. I'm not saying it's not his choice. I'm saying he is engaging in warfare he can't possibly win and it's taking an unnecessary emotional toll on him as we can clearly see. It is avoidable and some of us his fans would like to see him take evasive action

A40, u believe the reason why England was unable to get past the quarter finals with that their generation of players was because the players were overhyped and not good enough.

Let me ask u this, PSG have had some world class and very good players in recent years but have failed to get past the champions league quarter finals(the last time they got to the semis was over 20 years ago), do u think the different coaches they've hired failed to reach the semis because of over hyped players?


I would really appreciate a straight forward answer and not amala turning.
Who are the players you're talking about? You mean the same PSG that was parading washed up Thiago Silva and David Luiz in heart of defense? or freaking Marquinhos? Can you compare him with supposed great generational defenders like Ferdinand and John Racist?

Is it midfield where they were parading Blaise Matuidi and Thiago Motta? Clearly o ti gba penalty lo throw in

My opinion is that every human on earth is unique. As long as he is not committing a crime he can do whatever he likes. I am personally tired of the medicine pushing a narrative that a human should conform to a standard, The fact is he does not have to behave the way we think he should.
There are billionaires who lavish their wealth, they are those who are philanthropic with it and their are others who live conservative life styles it's all on the person.
One angle most people are not looking at is the possibility of the individual who KD is chatting with getting positive feelings from KD replying them.
Finally in the eternal words of J K Rowling 'to each man his own'.
It's not about not doing as you like and what not but understanding that from an elevated position you have to be selective and pick your battles. Especially when they are battles that are clearly taking a toll on your psyche. Making peace with the fact that you cannot control how you're perceived by people.

Or the coaches failed due to over hyped players. Because you cannot show me any assortment of World class players that failed to reach semis of a major tournament over an 8 year and 5 tournament span

Kimbeast:
Here is why it's the coaches....

Lets take a contrast of italy and England and how cohesive the Italian midfield was in 2006, the way it was entirely built around getting the best out of Pirlo, Sven was trying to crowbar in the likes of Lampard, Gerrard and Beckham which was stupid.. Once Lippi got Pirlo and Totti, it was all about filling in the missing pieces for him to build the best collective. It was just so much balanced something a capable manager will do for England. Pirlo was the best deep-lying playmaker in the world, with the club and country foil of Gattuso who compensated perfectly for any weaknesses. Perrotta wasn't as impressive an individual as some of the English stars, but he played an important tactical role, tucking in to support the midfield and enabling Grosso to overlap down the flank. Ashley Cole was a far more defensively polished left-back than Grosso ever was, but Lippi didn't need another immaculate defender - he needed an attacking left back to go forward and make the difference as he did against both Australia and Germany. Even Toni up top wasn't as talented as either Rooney or Owen, but he was a fine spearhead for the team to hold it up for Totti and was coming off the season of his life with 31 goals in Serie A. It was such a complementary team were so many strengths were maximised brilliantly by Lippi. You can look at every player in the team and see the key tactical function they had. If England had a capable manager like Lippi who maximized his squad strength they would have Won Something.
No need for all this long yarnin. I gave you a murderer's row of coaches with questionable technical skills that were able to succeed once they got capable players.

You can't sit there and tell me Capello, Eriksson and other experienced coaches who have forgotten more about football than any of us will be unable to conjure a formation that will get England at least to semifinal stage. I don't care if Christian Chukwu is their coach, the players are accountable

It's better for you to claim that they underachieved or blame ill fortune for their failure than to suggest that proven coaches who have won almost every trophy available suddenly forgot everything they know while surrounded by supposed world class players.

If the English players were that talented it would be harder to fail than to succeed

You were supposed to know that the change in formation helped everybody in that defence, not only Rudiger's introduction.

They only quaked as usual in the second half and conceded goals, which were due to avoidable errors.
LegoxMetahuman:
rudiger has been very solid so far
hensben:
As I saw Zouma replacing Rudiger I already know we will concede.
Unlimited22:
I think it's very clear we need Rudiger and Kante urgently. I only hope Rudiger was taken off as a precaution.


Meanwhile Lampard does need to work on his defensive tactics. This defense is a mess.
Maybe all these people didn't know Lampard was playing a different formation abi what is your point? Why are you needlessly antagonizing what everyone with working eyes are actually seeing

Lima in that team back then run for 3 players, one of the main reason Francesco can concentrate on his skills. I saw it with my own eyes not on TV ..
Cafu turn the right full back to an express road , no go slow.. No matter who play against him back then .
Even Nedved as fit as he was , cafu run him down .
Nothing Sansa no go see for Winterfell.

Prime Cafu oh that year wey Cafu still be Cafu. That Roma squad had no business not getting to CL semi at least
