Buhari is the very essence of not giving even an ounce of fück.

I genuinely do not believe that the man is doing all of this to fight Tinubu like some people are saying. I think he's literally just put sunglasses and dj headphones on - he sees nothing, he hears nothing, fück all yall.

This level of IDGAF is Industrial grade.
If he wanted to fight Tinubu i am sure there are a number of ways to do this without wrecking people's lives. The common man should not be used as cannon fodder in their war. If that is his plan then he should have found another way to carry out this fight.

When it comes to resilience i rate cacti, cassava, goats and Nigerians very highly.

The situation is pathetic. I dey owe one market woman N2,300 and the vulcanizer I use 500 naira. It's not because I don't have money to pay but because I don't have cash to pay. I asked madam to bring money from work, she was only able to get N3,000 of dead 100 naira notes. What will I use N3,000 to do?

One woman narrated her ordeal in the market yesterday on radio. She bought something from an Aboki. The Aboki initially insisted on cash but after she pleaded with him, he agreed to a transfer. Unfortunately, due to the Abokis bank network issues, she couldn't send money to him. The Aboki now took her to another Aboki selling in the same market to help him receive the money. Do you know this other Aboki insisted on collecting 500 naira charge just to help receive money and transfer to the original owner. The woman had no choice.

This week has been the worst I've seen since this policy started. Old or new notes, no one even dey again.
What the entire ruling class has for the people is contempt. Arifin in Yoruba, or "see finish" in Pidgin. I am actually impressed by the audacity of it all. This issue is something the government in most other countries would never try, for fear of being toppled.

This thing does not make sense to me. So now people have to go and fill form at CBN to drop old notes. Think of Nigeria's population. Compare it to the number of offices available for this process to take place.

These people are just wicked and insensitive. Meanwhile, the ability of Nigerians to withstand suffering is only rivalled by Nigerians' tendency to direct their anger in the wrong direction, like those ones going to burn banks and attack bank workers.

You could say that.

CB comes to my mind whenever I hear Thuram's name. You could say his versatility helped him.

Ngotty's career nosedived from AC Milan. Serie A was hot then sha.
Thuram did not play CB until Blanc retired and Sagnol joined the scene. It wasn't his versatility that saved him since France used him purely as a RB from 1994 to about 2002. The reason he made it was that he was by far their best RB from 1996 to 2002 while Ngotty had legendary CBs in front of him.

The move to CB was later in his career and only served to prolong his career but even if he had stopped playing as a RB in 2002 he would still have been a legend of the game.

Leyqute:
Yeah. But CBs don’t decline as fast as attackers or midfielders due to age.

Apart from that, he’s in the same age bracket with Thuram, who had a similar but less stellar career start yet had a better ending.
Ngotty had a really promising start in Ligue 1 but lost his way a bit in Serie A. For the national team he couldn't get ahead of Desailly or Blanc and the coach Aime Jacquet preferred Leboeuf as the sub. By the time Blanc and Desailly left the scene Ngotty was already over 30 and in his own athletic decline, and they went with younger players with future potential like Boumsong, Gallas, Cristanvaal, Silvestre.

Thuram on the other hand had nobody blocking him at RB especially once Jacquet decided to dispense with the services of Jocelyn Angloma.

Lol @ he forgot to check offside.

So what was he checking after a goal? The weyrey had one job, just one job
He is not an intelligent person. He was checking for a foul but forgot to check for offside. I never have confidence in him as a ref. There are some refs who have agendas against or for certain clubs. Lee Mason is just incompetent. English refs are elevated to EPL based mainly on man know man.

Is it the ref’s job to pick offside or the assistant ref?
I am talking about Lee Mason the VAR. He was the VAR but did not pick up the offside goal despite having the advantage of watching the goal in slow motion multiple times. He forgot to check for offside.

Ofcourse you have people with different agenda but my own be say if a player's performance directly affects the result, expect them to be dragged even if na Rashford or Bruno or Casemiro.
You want to be dragging teenagers the way you are dragging family men with bia bia. You will kill the confidence of young players before they mature.

He is probably going to start Fred and i wouldn't grumble too much. Sabitzer is yet to truly impress since coming and Fred plays much better with Casemiro next to him.

I dey here... That same running brought the goal. Doing it often would make it ineffective unless his acceleration can be sustained when he is fully matured.

Lee Mason is a useless ref so no surprises there.

The population of most African countries have increased by factor of 4 to 5 since 1960. Going by that our population is probably somewhere between 180m and 220m.

Logically, there is a high probability that the Oba of Lagos didn't want to receive Obi.

Obi would have requested, but if the Oba doesn't reply or declines, what would he have done?

This is Politics. As a politician you will want to save face, get the numbers and put asides differences, because in African politics, there are no enemies, just personal interest.

This doesn't show he is tribalistic in anyway. You have to do what you have to do. Obi wey do as if he dey pray Muslim prayer. grin grin No whine abeg.
This is really a non-issue. If Obi had gone there and the Oba had received him well that would have been great but knowing that the Oba is a Tinubu loyalist i don't think Obi did anything wrong by avoiding the potentially awkward situation.

The build-up play was poor tbh. Seen teams like City beat that type of press easily with exquisite close triangle passes from the back.

How they let the boy have a shot at goal without at least one person committing a technical foul is unbelievable.
You need a keeper who is really good with short and long passing for that. That way the full back can stay high and wide and the keeper launches a pass to him and the press is beaten. The GK is the extra man who can't be closed down until he receives the ball. You can consistently play out of the back if your keeper is mediocre on the ball.

This Spurs. Collect from the rich, give to the poor just because they have 50% of possession. No where to counter very well.

This is what happens when Conte doesn't have the correct personnel to play his football. He doesn't improvise. Doesn't tweak. Everyday, na 3 for back. Start the match with that, finish the match with that.

Brought in 5 players that he paid for, them still chop am. This is the exact thing he did that 17/18 season.
End the stream, Dave. grin

Lol... you no lie, but their is a limit his surname can take him too, Phil Neville son kukuma follow am go US.
Yeah. That Neville boy was poor. I don't think he will even ever make a Championship team.

This Under-18 set is the most bewildering i have ever followed. They seem to be littered with average players with no true standout player amongst the scholars, yet they are 3rd in the league. Even Adam Berry and Victor Musa that fans were raving about from the Under 14s and Under 16s have not been as impressive as advertised (though they are only 1st year scholars).

The central defence looks less decent though. Whether they can maintain it at the next level is another thing entirely.

Ryan Giggs' son on the bench for the Under-18s. Unfortunately he is not as skilled or fast as his father. I am suspecting nepotism.
