3rd ex-United manager sacked in a week.

Is it coincidence or have we just been appointing otu oshi managers?

If we can get him to sign a professional contract…we don try. That way we can at least get something for him— unless we bottle it as usual.
It is out of our hands.

He can change clubs at 16 but he can sign a professional contract only at 17.

This is why we were able to get Chido Obi from Arsenal. This is also why Arsenal gave Nwaneri his debut at 15 to show him their belief in him.

Do you reckon they’ll fast track JJ Gabriel to the U-21s this season? That U-18 looks too easy mode for him
He will definitely play Under-21s this season. Most likely 2nd half of the season or maybe after he turns 15 in October. He won't be small like Lacey, but he is still a bit skinny so they will be just a little cautious with him. He is looking like a Greenwood level talent at that level or maybe even better. If his physical development continues and he has no injuries he will be a top player because his technical level is sky high.

Problem is that he is a Barca fan whose favourite players are Messi and Yamal and he has a diva father. Due to the fact that he has an EU passport, when he turns 16, we will face an uphill task to keep him.

That tackle by Zubi was disappointing, it led to the goal. He should have allowed the player to, there was no need to challenge the ball.

That Liv vs Ars game was diabolical. How Arteta turned an exciting side into the EPL Atletico Madrid needs to be studied at graduate level.

Afrodoc afrodoc2 did you watch the U-21 Manchester derby?

Oni and Ibragimov scored. 2-1
Yeah, i did.

Lacey came on late and created the winning goal that Ibragimov scored. Ibragimov was also a sub because he played yesterday for the Under-18s (and scored as well).

It was a decent team performance but no standout amongst the starters IMO. It was only when Lacey came on that i saw real flashes of brilliance.

The guy’s takes are the most consistently ridiculous on this thread.

Bruno should gift Mbeumo penalty because we were leading 5-0 or what?

[color=royalblue]I goofed by researching 12 years ago, doesn't change the fact that no top club will be scooping Isak then.

It was a shitty suggestion for a club trying to get back on its feet. The Isak didn't end up in Madrid or Barca. He's still at Newcastle.

I goofed. I agree, but the tweet too was trash (Thank God it was a lie)[/color]
You goofed. EOD.

Thanks. 👍

I quoted you about you wild goof not the quote.

Vaya con Dios.

[color=royalblue]Okay. Let's work with the Interim period

Ragnick resumed in November, as interim, to save the club. And he was requesting for players from Real Soceidad, Ajax and Porto in January. Which board will listen to such a person?

The quote makes sense now because those players became fruitful. As at then, will you back Ragnick to save the club with a player from Real Soceidad?

The summary is that it's a fake quote, so make we leave am there grin[/color]
Lol see poor renovation. Sorry you goofed bro. It happens to the best people.

He was talking about recommendations for the summer window not January. He was brought in to be a consultant to the club and was making recommendations for the next season until the club bosses decided to part ways with him.

The only fact we have is that you goofed by saying he was manager in 2015 and you wasted your time going to research the history of all those players back 10 years. grin grin grin

What you were thinking or not thinking that made you make that mistake is a different story.

The summary is that you goofed badly. Let’s leave that there. grin grin grin

He is not even worried about missing the world cup, him and Scamcho are probably communicating regularly 😁..
Everybody mindset dey different.

Sancho does not have much professional ambition as long as the money alright.

Antony probably has gauged the talents Brazil has on the wings and knows he is not on that level. So rather than lose on both ends he is holding tight to the bag like glue.

lol. Do you know how much we are contractually obligated to pay him for the next few years?

He has no worries in life bro. It’s like you don’t understand how some of these guy think.

The club is the one that should be worried.

[color=royalblue] Nonsense talk.

As at 2015 when Ragnick was manager, Isak has not even started his career.

Luis Diaz was playing for a local club in South America

Timber was a Youth player in Ajax

Why should any reasonable board listen to him? You are fighting for a top spot in EPL, and you're looking for Isak and Diaz?

Thank God they didn't listen to him.[/color]
Rangnick was interim manager in 2021/2022. What are you on about?

Ralf Rangnick: "I pushed for Luis Díaz in January but the club said no. Before leaving, I still cared & gave John a list: Raya, Timber, Caicedo, Isak. They chose to follow Ten Hag instead. One of the main reasons I left was the club stopped listening to me."
Of all the people employed by the club in the past decade Rangnick is the one person I was sure knew what he was doing in terms of building a squad and identifying talent.

He was brought in originally to rebuild the squad and was then asked to step as interim manager, and was now sidelined because he struggled as coach and the club hierarchy didn’t like the way he spoke openly about the situation.

Meanwhile he is actually a decent coach as well.

Dalot has been rubbish for how long now? What did Amorim see in him to make him a leader in the team? He will most likely start as RWB tomorrow, a short one already for the team...
The reports are that he is probably the most professional member of the squad in terms of fitness routine, training, diet, lifestyle etc

Just a shame that he lacks the quality needed but in terms of application he is a good example in the squad.

Okada riders will ride on the same sidewalk pedestrian are expected to use just to beat traffic.

Road side hawkers in places like Ikeja, Eko Idumota, Oshodi, Iyana Iba, etc will take a side of the road where pedestrian are supposed to pass and they will turn it to their shop. If u do mistake step on their wares while u are trying to avoid those mini bus or keke from running you over, the traders will cuss u and sometimes lock your cloth in a bid to force u buy that item.

Nigeria(most especially Lagos) na jungle. embarassed
Yeah I forgot the road side vendors. The narrow the road from one side while the okada/keke are a threat from the other side.

If you are doing 10k steps daily on Lagos roads and okada never give you sliding tackle before, count your blessings.

Lastly I forgot the population density. How many places in Lagos can you walk 10k steps at a steady pace without pedestrian holdup taking place.

And was the first player to register an assist this season, he has only played that one game.
There is no reasonable explanation for Mainoo to have played 0 league minutes so far.

He was one of our best players against Grimsby and if all the other players had given his level of performance we would have won easily.

Grimsby is League 2. We loan our most developed Under-21 players to League 1 and the Championship.

Na people wey dey abroad fit dey enjoy walking lifestyle and that's because their cities were designed to accomodate such lifestyle choices, our cities are not designed for that, too dusty, unsafe and lacking shade.

Used to do daily walking, and light runs earlier in the year before my schedule got cramped...in Lagos you can do so with some relative safety past 10PM (when the roads are empty), as long as you keep within gated streets, if you're in an estate it'd be easier.
Walking in most parts of Lagos is a hazard. The roads are not constructed with pedestrians in mind so there are a lot of powers and principalities to battle from Keke Marwa to Okada to cars. Then you add the heat, humidity, dust. open gutters to fall into etc.

Where I am I can walk continuously for several hours on pedestrian walkways only occasionally using road intersections with traffic lights. The weather is also generally more conducive for walking.
