Winning Team at Today's training Session.

Short 1. They are missing a forward.

homesteady:
I was just pointing out the irony in your statement.

If there is one state that Tinubu should win with high margin percentage, it will be Osun. The story is that he is originally from Osun abi? So they will definitely vote for their son

Because Adeleke is not their son too. Or because Atiku and Obi are also their sons.

KingAlabi:
I feel that malacia might even be a backup to shaw.

Shawberto Carlos might come this season but his seasonal injuries will push malacia to the light.

My thoughts though.

i am not sure of Malacia defensively but because of his aggression and work rate i think at the least he will put some pressure on Shaw. But for this season i think you are right and he will start on the bench and be slowly integrated.

BlueRayDick:
Wow! Baba shey u no go open twitter space make men come learn these ways of the world laidis?

You sef bow for experience. See as the guy analyse everything like Godwin Enakhena.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]You seem to have some facts, hoping for a debate

Care to share some, sir? [/color]

I have none. Immediately i got the info from you i had to concede to your experience.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Some dey catch small small feelings.

If you perform well, you'll get some discount during the next pre season game[/color]

With your years of experience on this subject matter i don't think anyone can really debate the facts with you.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Any which way doc

If na Atiku, I go manage. My feelings dey everywhere like Oloshoo own [/color]

They are all bad business. One is too sick, the other is too corrupt, the 3rd is a snake oil salesman.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Atiku had no Yoruba man when he won Ondo state.

I have not said Tinubu wont win.[/color]

How does this relate? It would be significant if he defeated a Yoruba from a major party in Ondo Sate. That was 2 Hausa/Fulani competing against each other so of course one will win and the other will lose.

Anyway as things stand next year's election is between Tinubu and Atiku. Both Obidients and Obidi.ots are sitting on a long thing.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]If you're on NL, you'll think every SWesterner will vote APC.

Before now, you'll have thought that Adeleke stood no chance because Tinubu blew kisses during the rally.

[/color]

Which Yoruba man will Tinubu be contesting against in the Presidential election?

ChristineC:
so because I have a history of driving F150 I cannot buy a Prius in peace?

Hehehehe. It is because you were already assuming that the contract extension was going to be on improved wages while it was clear to both Tesla and i that there was no need for improved wages at all. The era of Oil Boom is over, na Austerity get am now.

izzou:

LOL. Na wetin i see na. Maybe it is lack of fitness but the guy dey huff and puff to get back against Melbourne Victory fa.

ChristineC:
you should also consider that Shaw may decide not to sign an extension if terms are not to his liking. moving as a free man a year later will likely put more money directly in his and his agent's pocket even if he's stepping down in terms of club stature.
it's also not unusual of him to have a Shawberto Carlos display in patches this season to lure a potential improved contract or deceive a new bride though

If they give him improved wages that is on the mumu board not Shaw. If they have not learnt from the wages they gave Shaw, Martial, Rashford, DDG e.t.c then nobody can help them.

For this first season it is important that we keep Shaw as cover in case Malacia struggles to settle in at the start. If Shaw goes and you leave Malacia and that backpacker Telles it might end in salty tears.

TeslaFC:
Any move he makes now would very likely not be to a big club, so chances of receiving an offer similar to United’s is substantially reduced.

In this case, United holds the bargaining power, which means there’s no pressure to offer any improved wages. Also consider he’s English.

I didn't even see this. You hit the nail on the head. ChristineC has a history of co-signing huge wage increases for players like the notorious Udoji Awards.

We can offer him same wage contract extension and keep the competition going between him and Malacia.

ChristineC:
that will mean United offers him a contract extension on improved wages or lose him for free next summer. while I hope he's worth it, I still think both options are not good for business.
I'd rather recoup some decent fee from his sale because he's been a disappointment. I think there are players already in the squad that can play makeshift at left back if Malacia proves to need some settle in period. talent has proven not to be everything in Luke Shaw's case.

They do not have to improve his wages. You can extend his contract cos he is not getting a better salary anywhere else. Recouping money on transfer should be secondary to keeping our better players and offloading the worse ones.

Shaw is technically good enough for me to see how he will perform under ETH. There is no point recouping 20m on Shaw in order to keep a waste man like Telles in the squad. That Telles that runs like he is carrying a backpack has no use in our current system.

ChristineC:
it's not a question of twice as good or half as good.
Shaw was signed in 2014 for £30m, a transfer record for a teen. this is 2022, how many outstanding seasons can you point out for this lad in the red shirt?

At this point the fee does not matter anymore. We keep the better player and sell the worse player. Shaw is better than Telles. And its not close.
Malacia is not certain to be a hit so i would feel more confident having Malacia and Shaw than having Malacia and Telles.

Telles is too slow and weak to cope with the EPL. He has shown it countless time. And this Malacia guy does not look as fast as his Youtube videos suggested. Jury is still out on him.

Leyqute:
You misunderstood me.

Ronaldo has a big ego.

We all know he can’t perform at an high level week in week out because of his body and age.

Yet he won’t agree to be rested or benched for his own benefit. He threw a tantrum the other day because he was subbed off.

This wouldn’t be a problem if his body could take the toil. But then he can’t and he won’t listen to anyone who says he can’t. It’s pure stubbornness and selfishness.

This is the point where a positive becomes a negative. Without Ronaldo's almost pathological ego and ambition he would not have attained the GOAT contender status that he has now. But because of that same ego and ambition he has not accepted that he has to recalibrate his own expectations of his performance levels.

Mrviktor:
AWB would be important this season for the fact that we can make 5 subs now..

Atleast if we are winning 2-0 we can put him in and rest injury prone varane or glo network dalot..

Ezemo is speechless.

TrebleChamp:
Lisandro Martinez will undergo a medical (often conducted over a couple of days) and has to obtain visa. Deal would take #mufc's spending for the summer up to at least £60.6m. Club backed manager over recruitment department's recommendation (Pau Torres).

This is not news na.

Nkunku and Torres were top of the list submitted by the scouting department who worked with Rangnick. Other possible names were Laimer, Gvardiol.

However every name was rejected by ETH who came with his own list of FDJ, Timber, Antony, Malacia, Dumfries. When LVG wrecked the Timber deal he switched to Lisandro Martinez.

BlueRayDick:
Wow ! Didn’t know Italy political scene was that unstable o. But does the frequent change of government not affect their economy ? I mean with different government coming up with its own economic policies , does it not affect them as a country ?

Of course it does to an extent. You are not likely to find Italy in Top 15 in Europe in GDP per capital or Human Development Index. But apart from the government being unstable it is also corrupt, so that also contributes.

BlueRayDick:
That Israel funny sef , u will see prime ministers come and go; only to later become prime minister again after few years .

Italy is even worse. They have had about 60 cabinets in the same time that Israel has had about 40.

Google Aldo Moro, Giulio Andreotti, Romano Prodi, Silvio Berlusconi. I am sure there are more less well known ones. They turned prime ministerial position into Esusu chairmanship that people rotate amongst themselves.

Ibime:
Italy, Israel and Japan, I have stopped keeping track of the names of their Prime Ministers. Anyday you wake up, they could have a new one

When I was in primary school and Giulio Andreotti (Mr Italy) was prime minister (his 3rd time and 7th cabinet) there had been more than 40 different governments in the 45 years since World War 2.

I think it is now 69 governments since the end of the war. An average of 1 government per year. It all stems from their chaotic proportional electoral system which they have recently started trying to eliminate.

nihilistjnr:
They asked Obi what is your plan for the power sector, for subsidy, and for managing national debt...

Obi: " As president, nobody will bother for consumption, even if we have to staff, every borrowed funds will be invested"


Obi: "You have poverty problem, you need to pull people out of poverty. I'm a business man , I started from micro so I know that to put people out of business, you have to re-engineer, phone, and support - its simple"

Can any obioma here translate what this man is saying?

You have to go to Anambra to get accurate translation.

timay1:
Mctominay is even more surprising. Cos in the Scottish national team, they don't even rate him as a midfielder, they just relegated him to defense, and only gets to play whenever they play a back 3, just to tell you how bad it is.

No wonder Ten hag is standing on their neck to get him De Jong by fire by force.

Ten Hag might be a good coach but he himself knows that he's not a magician and can't turn some players into Pirlo

Both Fred and McTominay will mess up their first touch and turn their 2nd touch into a tackle.

Fred's case is mainly due to poor composure and concentration while McTominay just lacks the technique. Outside height and strength there are between 4 and 6 academy players better than McTominay already and Fred's case is only marginally better.

It is unfortunate. Iqbal and Savage understand the role of central midfielders so much more than McFred it is unreal. Then the gulf in technical ability is shocking. McTominay is definitely using quota system cos there is no way he is a ten Hag style midfielder. I wasn't even really excited with the academy performance in the 2nd half cos that 1st half midfield performance was still hurting me in the soul.

If we start McFred we will surely lose out on top 4. Those academy boys are however not ready for EPL level challenge so we need to add 1 or 2 midfielders as a matter of urgency. If not we will be back here in December with another interim manager as it is our usual tradition.

Oasis007:


Afrodoc2.... seem I saw you. Are you the Man that wears red Hood?!

Hahaha. Nah. I actually saw those Stretford Paddock guys walking around outside the stadium like lost men on my way out. I almost shouted
"Stretford Paddock" but i comported my self.

KingAlabi:
I am impressed with Charlie savage
afrodoc is he a CDM

Yeah he can play CDM. He and Svidersky used to play double pivot a lot and because Svidersky is more defensive minded Savage ended up being the 8. I don't think he is mobile enough with and without the ball to play 8 at the top level, however in a team that hugs possession he would be a very decent 6.

CapitalCee:
afrodoc. Abeg who be this Iqbal Zidane sef. The boy and Savage pikin de play well.

I said the academy is loaded with central midfielders. There is a possibility that there are 2,3, or even 4 players as good if not better than Savage and Iqbal.

If Savage had a little more speed he would have been a sure banker to make it here. If Iqbal had a little bit more strength he would have been another sure banker. But then you have Mejbri, Mainoo, Hansen-Aaroen, Dan Gore as well. All between 17 and 19 so not more than 2 can make it here. Garner is highly favoured by the club hierarchy so that's another one.

All of them should go and thank their local deity that they didn't meat Ole in charge. He would have wasted their potential the way Yahoo boys waste money.

CapitalCee:
I dey here boss. Been busy with work

Nice one. Making that money is highly crucial for a man in this rugged world.

ovoP:
where's d trouble here.. eth just confirmed what we've been saying VDB can't create for others, instead he's a second striker, that knows how to find his way in the box.

That is Sir Kazeem bro. Sir Kazeem.

E be like say "Gaslighting" is the new term of the day.

ChristoBam:
This might be the last time I'll quote you cuz you're just one ignorant dunce with a lot of time on his hands. Quoting Dailymail and Goal as news source in 2022. And they'll keep telling you but with this your ignorant stubbornness, you no dey hear word.

Next time when you want to prove that a news is for real. Check out the news against Tier one reporters or papers like The Athletic, Simon Stone(BBC), Anracha in the Telegraph, David Orstein, e.t.c. Then post it, no one will argue.

Don't go and type news and bring out the top search from Fvcking goal.com you Twát!

I'll repeat this again. The point is not about Messi wanting to leave or not cuz I'm sure everything will fly over your head.

That’s because he knows he will lose the next vote of confidence tomorrow

Italy is the most unstable country in Western Europe.
