It is clear, when Tammy isn’t scoring, he contributes little or nothing to the attack.

I really hope he improves his all round play
And how did you come about this?? Did you even watch the match?? Dude disorganized that Tottenham defence,made the right runs and linked up very well with Mount.Had a very good game and everything he did was perfect. No dey go livescore go collect stats to criticise the player. At least watch the match before you say anything

Which one is too soft again. That's a red card anytime any day. Intention matters a lot. If you go into a tackle with two legs whether you win the tackle or not,its straight red. This shouldn't be different

You don't do business with family members. You only donate to them or organise charity programmes for them. If you carry your business and put in their hands, you have become a philanthropist.

My personal rule is this: I don't involve myself in business transactions with anyone I can't get police to lock up.
lol.True. You need someone you can deal with without looking back

Most drivers that accept vehicles or motorcycles for transportation intend cheating the owners of such vehicle or motorcycles. Their daily operations, activities and stories are geared towards achieving their ulterior motive: cheating the owner.

To reduce incidents of this happening,
1. Favour hire purchase over rentals.
2. Let the hirer pay some deposit (10%) which forms part of the hire purchase sum before you hand over the vehicle to begin work.
3. Let the hirer provide 2 guarantors, one of which must be a Civil servant.
4. Make sure you don't buy what you can't track. Install a tracker but don't tell the driver. This is hard in keke and bikes.
5. Ensure comprehensive insurance but don't tell the driver.
6. Hire only to young guys without family obligations.

If you can get someone who can fulfil the above obligations, at least your headache would reduce.

If you can't ensure you satisfy the above, use your money and buy local chicken to eat. At least, it's better you eat your money than someone else eating it.
You forgot no 7 which is the most important of them all. NEVER give the keys to your Keke/bus to a family member/relative even he meets all the above requirements

STOP BEING ENTITLED.
What do both of you mean by saying others should desist from calling humongous figures?

Anthony Joshua was paid 30bn for last fight. Consider what will be his personally. How much do Messi, Neymar , Mayweather etc earn?


Zuckerberg earns 10.2m every minute. Yes, 10.2 million every single freaking minute.


Yet people mention a few funds here, and you are inditing this, shouting.

These are existential realities. People live these fantasies.


NOTE NOW that there will always be richer people, more intelligent, handsome, sexier etc people.

It's like a ladder, some are at the top, some below.

You become frustrated when you look only at those at the top.

Look below the ladder and see those whose combined income are less than 30k monthly.
Some are happier genuinely.
Thank you bro for this. One cannot even be ambitious in this world without getting tagged greedy.The 40k we are talking about is less than 15m/annum which can't even get a land in some decent locations in the country. That's gots to show how far things really are so anybody that feels he should dream of making double of that amount should be encouraged so far its not crime related

But It's unfortunate Xavi can't replace Alonso in that DM slot.
Xabi didn't have to score before becoming laliga's best midfielder. You name one great player that played for a big club for 10yrs, without being honoured by Fifa? I will pick holes in his game and why he didn't measure up.
Recognition from FIFA whether in 1 yr or 10yrs has never meant anything.Do you know how many Madrid players made fifpro from last season?? Madrid finished trophy less and had players in fifpro.This shows you its highly irrelevant in scheme of things. In 10yrs time,an argument could easily be made using google but anybody that had half a brain would know the players that made that list least deserved it.But the award records are there to back Marcelo that was benched by Regullion as the best lb in the world of the 2018/19 season

Busquet doesn't have the gift to make some high press,shots blocked,tackles won stats.Since FIFA judges based on this attributes, he will never get recognised. But to be irreplaceable in both Barca/Spain's era of dominance and being consistent for 10yrs+ is always a testament of what he did on the pitch.Pep/Del Bosque dared not bench him. But Alonso was an easy fix if he didn't play well for Spain.



What goals does Benzema have above De lima? I hope you are not one of those fools that count number of goals, ignoring number of matches or minutes played. In fact individual honours put Ronaldo above Benzema, which is spot on and support my view. Not by number of team's trophies won as we see in Busquets case.
Benzema has higher goal stats in champions league than De Lima.He has more champions league trophies than him.I can make some stupid argument that due to this criterias ,he's a better striker.some arguments sef



Thank God, you said apart from Ronaldinho. Ronaldinho is not his mate, as far as the round leather game is concerned.

You are funny, if you think i only rate Ronaldinho above Iniesta just because of stats. He does extraordinary things with the ball, and added goals and assists. Ronaldinho's skills was second to none, Iniesta should take several seats when Ronaldinho is talking on the podium
Both have different skill set levels.Both play differently.One dribbles with speed,flare and skills,the other dribbles calmly without getting fouled.Ronaldinho is Ronaldinho tho but trying to undermine Iniesta is really laughable.Getting a standing aviation from Madrid fans that booed Ronaldo as a Barca player is one of the highest honors you can get as a player

I have said it here before and I will say it again.Valverde is a 4-4-2 coach. 4-3-3 system is not his style and him adapting to Barcelona's philosophy is a receipe of disaster. He doesn't have our Dna. Blaming Coutinho,Rakitic etc is just us fans looking for the fall guy. They are not the problem.How come Busquet is playing worst under this guy than he ever did since he played that final against United.Its not coincidence that Coutinho,Griezmann,Rakitic,Busquet are playing the worst games of their careers ever. Give this guy Neymar,Ronaldo,Mess,Lewandoski and he will still give you rubbish football

This coach will buried this team and philosophy. They are already a banter club
The board is the problem. Are they waiting till we go on a 10 game winless streak before they know that things need to start changing. We can't even get excited getting Napoli as opponents but when we won the champions league,we brushed all the top league champions from r16 to final. We have a very big problem in our hands

Jordi alba missed a chance in anfield and also made a mistake in defence that made Liverpool score.

The guy missed many chances today too, his passes are poor.
Our mental state is very weak atm. We need to take our psychological part of the game very seriously and that's one thing Guardiola is very good at. Fire Valverde as he's not offering anything to this club,get a good psychologist and we will be back.

I meant Iniesta, not Xavi. Ronaldinho was a professor on the pitch, Iniesta was a doctor. Ronaldinho's worst season with 8 goals for Barca, was Iniesta's best.

Even Iniesta will tell you 2 strong years from Ronaldinho was greater than his 10. It's a blasphemy to replace Ronaldinho that scored 21 league goals with shakushaku Iniesta that went times without a league goal in a season.
That's why I told you to concentrate more on Chelsea and EPL cause its obvious you can't analyse football outside statistics. Do you think any Barca fan likes Iniesta because of goals he scored?? Dude is the 2nd player apart from Ronaldinho to get a standing ovation at Santiago Bernaleo?? Madrid fans gave him the respect cause of the class of player he was not because he had 200 career goals.

Not all players are judged on how many assists or goals they have in a season.If football was judged that way,you might as well place Neymar ahead of R9 on greatest Brazilian players of all time.But despite Neymar's numbers for his country,he's not even top10 brazilian player of all time.

Google isn't your enemy.

Modric has featured in 5 consecutive World best 11. The Croat clinched La liga's best midfielder award twice. You can't be extraordinarily good for 10yrs and be ignored like Busquets. Name one great dm as sluggish as him?
The mistake you make is thinking some fifapro recognition or any individual award is what gives you claim over anything. Busquet is never a player that will get any individual award cause he never scores or effects the game directly.But for years he has been the heartbeat of Barca and Del Bosque and Pep couldn't replace him throughout Barca/Spain dominance.Barca struggled in games he didn't play.

Its just like placing Benzema over R9 because of Champions league trophies and goals. No way are they in the same class when hlit comes to comparisons

I know you are not blind when i made it known he also made world best 11 twice in Spain.You cant make that, being useless or average in your team.

Busquets is not a great DM. Just a passer of the ball, he can escort satan to hell. Very weak defensively.
Remind me how many individual awards and world 11 Modric has been in so far?? Canavaro is a 1 time world best.Based on that logic,Canavaro is a much better defender than Maldini and Modric should have made the list even ahead of Alonso.

Modern football is so obsessed with individual awards and statistics that nobody bothers watching football anymore. Busquet was not a great DM but Barca and Spain couldn't play without him for years.Alonso was easily replaceable in Spain than him but he wasn't great.lol

Zidane was inconsistent in la liga. Almost everyone knows this. People just get blinded because he won the ucl in his 1st season in madrid.

Ronaldinho's peak was probably higher than everyone in that midfield list but xaviesta were more consistent.

My midfield choice is purely based on both consistency and peak. Iniesta was probably the most consistent in that list.
Zidane is mostly remembered in Madrid shirt for that goal he scored in the champions league final.He's all round Madrid career wasnt much tbh compared to others. Placing Alonso is also out of place cause all the clubs he played he was really exceptional so his Madrid career wasn't that outstanding than what he did both at Liverpool and Bayern. He didn't even have a better career in Madrid shirt than Busquet at Barca. Exclusion of Xavi,Raul/Di Stefano and possibly Iniesta means people at Livescore just started watching football yesterday.

Doesn't Xavi has the record for most assists in a single la liga season. How will all Ronaldinho or zidane bench him? How many la liga titles did zidane win, how many did Ronaldinho win compared to xavi?


I know you hate busquets so i won't argue about that one.


Xavi, iniesta will always start in that midfield. Laudrup sef go start before zidane and Ronaldinho.
Argument could maybe be made on Ronaldinho's inclusion but R9 should not be there. Di stefano should replace him even Raul will come before him.Alonso ahead of Busquet is really laughable. Zidane ahead of Xavi??
