TrebleChamp: They should just take Qatar money and get the hell out of our club. I think Fans started noticing Woodward was also a huge problem too, so they attacked his home to send a message. Arnold could get same treatment if he doesn't sit up and instruct Murtough to hurry sh**t up with transfer targets... A major problem is other club executives also noticed we were incompetent and started swindling us. How much do you think World Cup winning midfielder Alexis Mac Allister would have been sold for if we had been the ones bidding for him? Look at Chelsea asking for 70m for England and Chelsea squad player Mason Mount who has only 1 year left on his contract, and just completed a terrible off-form season. |

TrebleChamp: The Glaziers are not responsible for signing players na. If they give the board £250m to spend this window, but murtough and co decides to waste time closing deals or overpaying for average player, are we to blame Glaziers for that? If United sign rubbish players again the window, that blame will be solely on Ten Hag. He cannot ask for control and then be recommending rubbish players to the board. Substitute Glazers with Buhari and Murtough with any incompetent government minister of your choice. If a manager keeps playing Maguire instead of Martinez and Varane, at a point in time you have to stop blaming Maguire and you need to face the manager. For YEARS fans and observers noted the incompetence of the Bristol gang and the Glazers kept those guys in office. If you keep appointing incompetent people and keep them in office despite enough evidence of their incompetence, then we can't heap all the blame on those guys but you that kept them in office has a large share of the blame. |

Leyqute: 1. Haaland will not stay in England for even 5 years. 2. Haaland may not score 30 league goals every season.
The league is an animal on his own. It changes and adapts to people.
Pep had to reinvent himself to be this dominant, and that's in addition to the investment city has made over the years. There is no league in the world that can adapt to Haaland. Only injury or Hazard-like indulgence can save defenders that face him. I agree he won't stay that long with Man City though. He is probably going to be Harry Kane's replacement at Real Madrid (If Kane goes there of course). |

BlueRayDick:

Even Lord Monerozi the warden of the north had to humbly proclaim: My guy El Rufai don fvck up Which one be warden of the north?  That was a very insensitive and provocative statement by El Rufai sha, but based on his antecedents maybe one should not be surprised. It however does not change the truth of the electoral calculation in the Tinubu camp. A Northern Christian running mate for Tinubu would have handed the election to Atiku. The lopsided nature of the country makes it that way. I have stayed here before. Once you select a Southern Muslim candidate it becomes difficult not to have a Muslim-Muslim ticket. Even Abiola who had an obvious edge over Tofa could not overcome that fact. The Christians have a right to ask questions, but Tinubu in his own part has a right to avoid political suicide and choose the running mate that gives him the best chance to win. P.S On a good day El Rufai is an agitator and provocateur who should not be anywhere near government, but if they kick him out he might cause more chaos from the outside. |

MRTA7: I agree on the spurs not wanting to sell issue but there's some rumours Kane is keen to stay in the premier league to break shearer's record. If he wants to break that record he might as well stay at Spurs. United are not winning major titles soon. If he comes at a reasonable fee though he is very welcome. |

ChristoBam: He literally can break Alan Shearer's record in 2 years. He also has a good chance of winning trophies at United. That beats anything Madrid has to offer. Ok then. He has prioritised individual glory over the winning titles. There is a tiny chance of winning a title at United, but I wouldn’t call it a good chance. At least not for the major titles like EPL and UCL. |

I hope it is just a shakedown by an aggrieved ex-gf and nothing else. The thing with abusers is that they almost never learn and find it almost impossible to change their ways. So even if the club was organizing weekly domestic violence lectures because of Greenwood's case, an abuser amongst the players in the squad would still find it difficult to stop. |

Roland17: Not sure how I missed this..
You are absolutely right about coaching Doc. The team was quite expressive and transitioned the ball well offensively but lacked the individual quality to finish. Daga also impressed me with his composure on the ball… so did Bameyi. We ended up taking too many outside shots because we couldn’t penetrate the final third, which lays credence to your point about about the inability of wingers to beat their man. Bameyi was composed but forget that age he is claiming. He is one of the OG Bros in the team. If Ifa is not lying to me that guy is closer to 30 then he is to 20. Nnadi is a decent box-to-box MF for a 4-3-3 side. He needs to be a bit more creative though. Daga’s positioning and anticipation is too polished for a 16yr old. These people don’t even lie with any pity. |

izzou: [color=royalblue]Not all private schools
But those expensive ones offer better pay. [/color] They will probably have more qualified teachers and better equipped laboratories. The lecture sessions will be less crowded and will encourage learning. There are cardiologists, IT gurus, eminent lawyers that attended public schools like the so-called Jakande schools in Lagos, but with the continuous decline in education successfully passing through such schools is becoming increasingly difficult. Getting a private tutor is probably a good idea in a place like Naija. |

larride: I mean even in the video, he clearly said when Sani Uba finish the first 4 years and go for another 4 years, then another one comes in after him before they know it, its 20yrs.
El Rufai already did 4yrs on a muslim muslim ticket Sani Uba is doing his first 4yrs on a muslim muslim ticket, if he get reelected, that's 12yrs straight with a muslim - muslim ticket ruling Kaduna.
Just look at how they try to make it look as if El rufai was talking about the Presidential election.
Agenda ehn I was just watching them like Jega. It was just a demonstration of painment. Obi.diots have made a vow against knowledge anyway so I wasn’t surprised.

Mrviktor: martinez and shaw in midfield would ball Maybe Shaw. I am not sure Martinez is agile enough. Midfield play is different from CB cos in midfield your awareness has to be 360 degrees and the opponents are in close proximity, while CBs have more time and space. |

CrystalTiger: Our playing out from the back with DDG went from bad to worse after Martinez injury.. 100%. Martinez is an excellent short and long passer, makes brave line-breaking passes and can also progress the ball with well-timed runs. Shaw on his left side is also a very good passer, though not as brave as Lisandro. Varane and AWB on the right side struggle in comparison. |

odizeey: I'll like to see how a new keeper plays with this current players. Why? This is not a science experiment and the team is not a petri dish. If a new keeper comes in it won't be with these current players because we will improve other aspects of the team as well. The club won't buy just a GK and neglect all the other aspects of the team just in order to convince a single fan in Africa called odizeey that DDG is a problem in terms of passing out from the back.  For the 10,000th time, getting a better ball-playing GK is not a panacea to all our problems playing possession football, but it is a major step in the right direction. |

Roland17: A very disappointing match and outcome. We controlled the game for the most part and struggled to convert chances. The 2nd half was better.. I enjoyed watching Nnadi, he just needs some brushing up but he looked the part. They are well coached but they just don't have the individual quality. See as winger dey face fullback 1v1 multiple times and no fit even attempt take on. Imagine Sir John Owoeri or Mazi Solomon Abwo dey dat kind position, na to carry the defender trabaye. Frederick, Daga, and Nnadi are not bad. We also missed that Haliru Sarki. He had been a very good weapon off the bench. |

odizeey: How well does he retain that possession.
People here talk about how the striker is needed in the build up of modern football to press and all. But a midfielder is now not important. It's okay. I don't think anybody said a midfielder is not important in a possession-based team, rather that with the way teams press now the GK is the single most important player in a possession-based team. If your GK doesn't excel in both short and long passes you will keep losing the ball via long kicks from the keeper, which is what we are experiencing. |
