According to the Maker;

The PF Fury is an ultra-Light Combat Vehicle designed to cater to the need of the Nigerian Armed Forces Infantry and Special Operation Forces. 

This innovative design has been praised for its modular design that makes it adaptable to various mission and, more crucially.
Forget what the seller of the goods is telling you first and try to think about what your friend/brother is saying. It is like you are just defending first before listening.

First of all when you say it is for TACTICAL USE only what do you mean exactly by that?

Hmmm.

What really is this supposed to do? Maybe carry officers.

It can only carry four. It has no armour whatsoever.
The operator of any weapon is fully exposed. This looks more like a parade vehicle than a vehicle with any real field application. But what do I know?
Lol. My exact same view when I saw it. Can’t even protect from herdsmen with bow and arrow. But like you said we aren’t military experts.

Out of these names you mentioned only Fred, Eriksen and Bruno of 2020 should be near the first team. McSauce and DVD should find their level abeg.

We can even dangle DVD to Ajax,they might bite since ETH want Anthony sad
You want offload 5 midfielders in one window and replace them with what? With a board that buys a player a month. We are talking about realistic adjustments not just theoretical ones.

Even in that midfield we need at least 2 more players cos it's not looking like VDB knows what he’s doing and Bruno's form is really concerning.
For the 3 midfield places we need 6 senior players and the academy players can fill in for brief emergencies. New midfielder (FDJ), Eriksen, Fred, McTominay, Bruno, VDB, and Martinez can be a 7th emergency option. We can still manage in midfield with 1 addition and continue to improve in the next window BUT that attack ehn we are 1 injury to either Sancho or Ronaldo away from catastrophe.

They should jus pay Ajax whatever they want for Antony...

And try to secure Šeško... Cos if things remain the way they are, we are primed for another season of struggling for Europa places...

Trashford is still TRASH, Trashlanga is even worse than TRASH.. And quite frankly Martial FC is only looking good enough for cup games...

This loss and the Villa draw are actually great. Make those money men know say nothing dey cook. We need minimum of 3 players. A definite starting midfielder and 2 starter level forwards.

Why dyu think?
His physicality?
Someone who knows how to pass does at least 1 of these things well: High volume of passes, high passing accuracy, high through balls, high key passes, or high assists.

Which one does McTominay do well. Let us start from there.

But to be fair to him, that LLorente has always been on his matter.

Anytime he drops to receive the ball, baba go shadow am

LLorente has been following Bruno and Malacia, especially if Malacia tries to tuck into the midfield

This system is for sleek players who're really good at quick combination plays.

Martial, Sancho, Eriksen will definitely cook

Then VDB will too, once he integrates

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 1:42pm On Jul 30, 2022
The system is very good but the components are not up to standard.

McTominay and Bruno are weak links so far. FDJ and Eriksen might be good replacements. I don't think Bruno's weight of pass is of the right quality for the tiny spaces he would be operating in with this ETH system.

Ajax will receive a pay-off every time Lisandro Martinez takes the field for Manchester United as part of the transfer that took the Argentine to Old Trafford.

The Mirror reports that United will pay out £56,000 a game for the first 30 games Martinez plays each season, which could set them back up to £1.7million per year for the five years his contract has to run. Can Someone explain this?? What kind of bonus is this?
That is not a bonus really but what is called add-ons. They can come in terms of games played, competitions won, or for a forward it could be goals scored e.t.c

it is what we expected from buhari - a harsh but fair lee kuan yew type. not a lazy corrupt self serving geriatric whose only achievements are marrying off his spawn into the northern elite

to this day i get pissed when i read people knocking fujimori for corruption.
Exactly!

A sort of benevolent despot. Lee Kuan Yew is a very good example. Or Mutafa Kemal Ataturk. This current system encourages demagoguery, political opportunism and divisiveness which Nigeria is a fertile ground for due to our tribal and religious divisions as well as the lack of political sophistication of the general population.

I am happy they blocked ruga. Fulani that have no regard for their fellow northerners and fellow Muslims, in a government backed program that gives them land and access in infidel, Southerner territory?

For all we know it was also fulanis that were behind that ondo massacre. Maybe the BBC will also investigate that and then we can hear how they are again glorifying terrorists

I hope Buhari continues along this line of madness. Maybe when they stop allowing him to come to UK for treatment his head will clear.

Read up on sendero luminoso and Tupac amaru. These were revolutionaries threatening Peru. The then president alberto fujimori, dealt with them and shut them down. Tupac amaru went as far as to storm a Christmas party and take several diplomats hostage. They were still beaten.

But when you do not even want to listen to the truth but to scyhopants who tell you Nigeria is fine, where do you even start?
You have (probably accidentally) hit the nail on the head. Any sliver of hope Nigeria has in salvation lies in a political strongman like Fujimori and not in democracy. After stabilisation and a systemic reset democracy can then be restored. However said strongman might then face the repercussions of his actions just the way Fujimori is facing now.

Strongman government might not work (especially if it is the wrong sort of person in charge) but i think it gives the country maybe a 5% chance while this current path we are on leads to certain perdition. How the strongman can establish his government is another issue entirely.

I have watched him a couple of times and one thing is clear from the games I have seen, he is very good at getting past his marker...

Viera for some reason prefers players who are strong and defensively inclined that's why Olise and Eze who is another very good player in the Palace rank don't play as much games...I rate Olise and Eze highly, with good coaching and good work rate, those two will go on to do big things...
Fair enough. Like i said you have the advantage over me in that you have seen full games of his while i only have YouTube comps but even before Vieira he wasn't scoring goals or even creating loads of assists even at Championship or Academy level where most really talented players stat pad like crazy.

Then he was ignored at Under-15, Under-16, Under-17, Under-19, Under-21 level by both England and France until only recently when he got Under-21 call up by France at 20. You might be right and he could be a late bloomer but all these are red flags i can pick out without watching his game like you have.

BBC dropped theirs. You have not countered one single part they put up. Zamfara government said they didn't pay any ransom. BBC showed they did, interviewing the Bandit Mr Hassan

Instead of countering the lie, na say dem dey glorify terrorism

If no be say I dey vex for APC, I for no bother to vote sef. Useless country with very senseless citizens

In sane countries, you would expect the people,
even those affected to hold the government to ransom. But they are on Twitter dragging themselves

Arrange yourself and get out if you can. Do it in an organized way sha so you don't find yourself stranded in a strange land. I bin dey tell people for years that the country is expired people no understand rather dey go dey focus on the fact that i am not in the country.

The country is expired and there is no solution, and it is only partly because of the leaders but majorly because of the citizens. Thank God for social media that has exposed the inner workings of the mind of the average Nigerian. If finger pointing and whataboutism were Olympic sports Nigerians would have been dominating like Michael Phelps.

You haven't watched Olise my friend...
I haven't really watched him but he has rarely been capped by either France or England at youth level (almost every rated player gets capped) AND his stats right from youth football to senior football are actually not that impressive. Very suspicious facts IMO.

Summary. The guy is innocent until proven guilty. That is the way it should be. Just like any crime be it murder, theft, sedition, or kidnap the accused is presumed innocent until proven guilty.

In addition, ever since a preponderance of women started making false and maliciously vindictive rape accusations that idea that you have to first believe the alleged victim has been repudiated. Innocent until proven guilty.

Top 4 isn't out of reach and that fellow has a point.

If only we had a coach who could add one to two, we could have easily made top 4 or even top 3 last season.

Conte and Tottenham had nothing on us and he got them to top 4 anyways.
Ok. But think of it this way.

Compared to last season we might be starting this season with the same senior attackers MINUS Ronaldo, Cavani, Greenwood.

Compared to last season we might be starting this season with the same senior midfielders PLUS Eriksen but MINUS Matic, Pogba, Lingard, Mata.

The squad quality/depth in attack and midfield is way worse than it was last season. The highly rated brand new manager is a great coach not a great magician.

Personally the squad isn't as bad as last season made it out to be. When no defined system is deployed, even the few world class parts will stagnate and the the system will clog itself.

A well defined and oiled system on the other hand makes the sum of the parts better, this is what ETH is bringing I believe. Nevertheless, the squad needs strengthening or we may forget about top 4 once again.
ETH is a good manager not a great magus. The other Top 4 contenders also have good managers and most of them have better squads than ours. The football would be more enjoyable but at this point Top 4 is still out of reach. We desperately need a very good CM/DM and another good forward.

ok oooo. But I still don't buy the idea of buying and sending him out on loan. We need strikers. Ronaldo has awol. We need to buy

If Ronaldo stays then that is okay but if Ronaldo goes then we need him to be the 2nd choice to Martial. But they have to ensure he gets good minutes and does not rot on the bench.
