This is the most illogical thing I ever heard, so you would run away from NL, because some guy is typing contrary to your opinion.

You have comprehension problem, i was reffering to politics section, is it only politics section that NL has?. I am talking about politics section of the forum being bastardised with biafra topics, hence it loses appeal to many members which in effect, affects the owner. It's not a rocket science if you know how forum, blog owners earn their monies. My submission will only be illogical to ill-equipped minds.

martyns303:
You said insults where exchanged between two sides, how does that affect NL?

View it from this angle, there are more members who are not interested in biafra this biafra that , than those who look forward to biafra stuffs on this forum. but when the politics section is filled up with biafra topics almost everytime, with time many members interested in reading other news or political stories would be chased away cos they would always think nothing except biafra issues will be in the politics section. This is a loss to the owner of the forum. I believe biafra has its own forum but i dont think the traffic is up to half of what we have here. You can figure the reasons out by yourself. Before this forum owner lose his members to biafra agitations, he musta do the needful. Nobody wants to run a business at a loss.

Airmark

Aminat mi, so wapa. se eko lo ti ma se new year?

Pataki:


Airmark, pkasso come and see another foolish lie from our resident NL Sport Section Oponu of the Year oh!

Tell us which 1 EPL topped their group?! Olodo buruku oshi. Afofun arindin.

He's skillful in skipping important facts and hammering on trivialities. In those 3 groups the mumu was refering to, an english team beat a german team home and away while none of the german clubs did that to english teams. Epl is having 3 teams in the next round, burnthisleaguedown is having 2. Raumdeuter would n't talk about those facts because they're shameful to him.

stuff46:
[s]@Airmark- What will you say about Gudiola's 100Matches different lineup? ( Not forgetting the fact that as at early this year, he had more injury than you could ever imagine and he still utilized the second who played good football; for which if not for bacelona's form would have gone ahead to win Champs league?). Master planning is the key to evrything bro. If he had not been using all those elements in the squad and have always been a complete user of all members of the squad, he would have been stranded?

Am using bayerns's stand to rubbish you claim that a first tier team like man u should be complaining of not making the cut in a group with the likes of psv nd wolfburg.

Valencia nd co are key squad member, same as bernat nd rafinha. Don't attribute failure to chance, it is an event (According to Probability theory ).

Dmdcad@ you get too much time to waste jor. Round 16 predictions, any meal can serve, atleast we will have good sub to use before then. [/s]

Despite barca justifying my argument yesterday that a strong team would struggle when her regulars were not fielded, you are still disturbing me this early morning with this gibberish. I give up on you guys. Tell me any moment the bavarians lost 8 of her regulars to injuries and played a strong team and won comfortably in UCL? Even in burnthisleaguedown, after losing robben, alaba, costa just last week, they were roundly beaten by one of the weakest teams in this year's group stage of ucl. Imagine what would happen if boatank, lahm, muller and arturo vidal join them at the same time. Fact is they will struggle like man utd did with jokes like varella, powell and Borthwick-Jackson. When arsenal played 2nd leg against bayern, missing services of kolcieny, bellerin, ramsey and walcott, we all saw how bayern easily annihilated them within 45 minutes. I told dmcdad yesterday that previous performances are sometimes irrelevant, a team might grind out result at the last minute especially when her major materials are on ground. That was exactly what happened yesterday in arsenal's match, no one gave them a chance, but at the end they proved most bookies wrong. It's high time you guys started comprehending simple soccer analysis.

I love LVG. Speak for yourself you silly sausage

That man is trying for them. Depay should be earning that rooney's wage. He is the revelation of the year. Thanks to LVG for bringing such a spectacular player to the theatre of dreams. He is a comedy to watch.

Burnthisleaguedown 2 teams bundled out

[s]
Is it that you don't learn or you choose to ignore facts?

You got what you requested for but fail to acknowledge it here and now. You asked that Pique, Mascherano, Alves, Iniesta and co not play, for us to see how we will fare, right? Well, you go what you asked. Pique, Mascherano, Alves, Iniesta, Busquets, Suarez and Neymar didn't play.

Now note this; even though we didn't fight for a place (that is we were already qualified), we didn't lose nonetheless. But Man Utd fought for a spot and lost it because they were shiit.

Now, eat back those words of yours.

PS: You don bring Munir and co matter again ooooo. Later you go aay you no include Hazard. At least Munir and co have goals this season. How many goals has he scored this season? So by your logic, Munir >>>>>>>>> Hazard. #Fact.

If you must quote me again, please it should be an acknowledgement and a testament for what I told you that regardless of the players used, a top side should remain so.[/s]

Just scamper for safety. The result tells you i was right with my earlier argument but you would n't accept. Any strong team will struggle when majority of her major players are not playing. If you parade these neophytes against wolfsburg your guess is as good as mine. Wolfsburg at present is a better team to leverkusen. I am not a man utd fan, but i told you facts about the team that played yesternight, it was a weakened team. In other news valencia lost at home again to lyon. Lyon is categorised as tier 20 team on my list, so i wont blame valencia, i blame laliga for presenting two useless teams in the ucl this year.

homesteady:
Oh my waist! This match was an eyesore, very very horrible.
But this is the price we have to pay for rotation.
I'm so so disappointed with Vermaelen and Bartra, especially Vermaelen, he couldn't even put up a decent performance so that he would create more selection headache for Enrique! Mathieu should surely be 2nd choice CB .
That Kaptoum was also very horrible!
How Leverkusen didn't win this match is still a mystery!

That's how it feels.

ToyinDipo:
Shout out to Zouma, that dude is a great in one on one marking. Matic coming back to form, aided by the absence of Fabregas

Dude is improving. He impressed me.

Nihilist:
I hope Jose has seen that we're better defending deep and counter-attacking...
We need to play like this against Leicester this weekend. Leave the expansive football to Arsenal

Exactly. We had the chance to have won at least with 4 goals on those breaks. Good game

dmcdad:
Na so e dey be. If you look am well you go know say him sabi ball.

How many goals did your munirus and ambalis win with today?

homesteady:
You have been blabbing about 8 players missing, or is Rooney not part of the 8 players?

You should read properly adding rooney would have made it 9, but i was n't impressed with him so i did nt think his inclusion would have changed anything

homesteady:
Phil Jones? the same player that a Utd fan claimed was a danger to himself and the team?

Anybody could say anything about him, he is a type of player useful in big occasion. If you know nothing about man utd team just shut it.

homesteady:
Phil Jones? the same player that a Utd fan claimed was a danger to himself and the team?

Phil jones has been suffering from injury, hence blind was drafted in his place. In all 8 matches jones featured this season, man utd did nt lose any match and man utd only conceded 3 goals in which two were spot kicks. in the match against everton, we saw a solid defence stopping everton attackers perfectly, with rojo and jones doing yeoman's job with smalling , while scneiderlin and herrera pulling strings in the middle. Just stick to your barca games, don't poke your nose in what you are ignorant of. No sensible football watcher will say blind is a better CB to Jones for man utd. God of soccer may strike such person down.

A40:
It seems the virus of mediocrity in the EPL has infected Schweinsteiger, See the way Draxler smoked him like Waterside SK for that 2nd goal, I was not sure if that was Wolfsburg or Barcelona at a point

Fantastic performance by Die Wolfe, topping the group has given them a fantastic chance of advancing to the quarters provided they avoid PSG. It would be really something if they can make it to the quarters despite losing KDB

Don't see Leverkusen advancing but here is hoping they can make the Europa League at least

A40 my guy dont abandon your man the way he abandoned you in the past. Can you please tell Dayo not to serve us lies on this thread again? Abi how you see am?

raumdeuter:
It would be noted that when he was in Chelsea, Madrid never went beyond the Second round and Chelsea in Makelele's time only failed to go beyond the second round just once

raumdeuter:
[s]

Your posts have been pushing the boundaries of stupidity since

Man Utd couldnt qualify in a group of PSV Wolfsburg and CSKA. man Utd is one of the top teams of the EPL

Thats akin to Barca, Atletico or Madrid not being able to qualify from their current groups. In SPain Barca Madrid and Atletico their top teams have already secured qualification before the last gameweek

That is why Spain is topping EPL with a wide margin in the coefficient

So Wolfburg beat Bayern makes them a top team?

West Ham beat City Arsenal and CHelsea so they should be able to take on Barca

Celta Vigo beat Barca, Barca beat bBayern that means Celta Vigo would beat Bayern conveniently

Some foolishness should be patented[/s]

Have you got an answer to this:

raumdeuter:
It would be noted that when he was in Chelsea, Madrid never went beyond the Second round and Chelsea in Makelele's time only failed to go beyond the second round just once

Where was real madrid knocked out in 2004 ucl by monaco, while makalele was in chelsea? Still 2nd round? Please answer that to know if i can reply you shameless, unrepentant liar.

dmcdad:
Your argument is baseless I swear! So because Wolfsburg defeated Bayern, they are now automatically a world class team? I see... I guess since Celta defeated Barça, they should be regarded as a tier 1 or tier 2 team. Abi? No?

Wolfsburg is not a team that cant beat any of your so-called world class team, that's the point. Your team without alves, mascherano, alba, pique, rakitic, busquets will struggle like man utd did yesternight.

homesteady:
[s]Someone is seriously defending Man Utd's dismal UCL campaign? It surely has to be Airmark.
I'm 200% sure that the net spending of all the other clubs in the group for like 3 seasons is not up to what Man U spent this season, and you are shamelessly trying to defend them?
How would you blame the outcome of 6 games on only one game? Where all their players injured when they were shamelessly loosing and drawing games they should have won? Even after poaching PSV best player, they couldn't even win them.[/s]
Besides which useless 8 players are you talking about? Apart from Herrera and Schneiderlin , who else would have made a positive impact? is it them Rooney, Valencia and co that Man U fans constantly cuss at on their thread?[s]
Even on man utd thread, no one is justifying their exit, but in your bid to cement your place as Nairaland Most Foolišh, you came here to disturb our peace with your jargons! Which normal human being doesn't know that EPL has declined greatly? O well, you are not part of this group.[/s]

Did i even list rooney among the players they missed? Try harder. Luke shaw, jones, valencia and rojo would have provided a better shield for de gea. I did nt expect you to agree cos you are the worst barca fan on this thread, as far as soccer analysis is concerned. I doubt if you have watched luke shaw played before. I blame van gaal for some tactical lapses in his games but wolfsburg was beatable yesternight, united conceded stupid goals because of below average players that littered their defence line. I dont need anyone to tell me that.

ElFenomeno1:
facts say we are better than last year - LVG .... Source : bbcsports

LVG is on a mission, to help deplete their account. The xmas gift i expect man utd to give LVG is a sack letter, chelsea may help him on that.

dmcdad:
Bruv, homesteady didnt cry for not having Roberto. It was a quick question to inquire from us cules if anyone got any ideaa[b] when he would be back since there was no midfield bench on that game. You dont wanna play a game without having a midfield substitute.[/b]

That further buttressed my point that the fact that man utd paraded a weak team due to injuries and lost yesterday is not enough for anyone to use it against the whole epl like debroslink did. If dmcdad could be concerned about the bench why wont a man utd fan be concerned about his team regulars that were sidelined by injuries? There are teams who could rise up to occasion and grind out results at the last minute such teams would need experienced players to do it. Man utd lacked it yesterday parading damian as LB, varela, borthwick-jackson, nick powell and other emergency recruits to do that.

dmcdad:
But against the likes of PSV, Wolfsburg and CSKA? 3rd or 4th tier teams? Haba na... Fear God na!
I would never accept injury as been the reason for a top side like Man U not to qualify ahead of those 3rd/4th tier teams.

So wolfsburg that defeated bayern twice this year is a 4th tier club, right? Thats the kind of braggadocio that heralded the man city/sevilla duels until sevilla was flogged home and away. Zenith is also a 4th tier team and defeated valencia home and away, right? Ridiculous. i asked you how your barca would cope without mascherano, alba, alves buscuit, rakitic, pique and iniesta against a team like wolfsburg? Not forgetting how you lost to celta vigo, sevilla and drew with roma. Just like i told Dayo, when the time comes i will remind you when you guys wail here.

dmcdad:
Alright. What happened prior to this last fixture?

A bit busy now but lemme chip in this, before this last fixture man utd was having Valencia, Shaw , Herrera, Jones , rojo all injured and man utd as 2nd on the log was in qualifying position. Those are facts. In fact what happened prior to yesterday is irrelevant, Chelsea was on the verge of being bundled out by Napoli in 2012 only to bring the magic wand in the 2nd leg against all odds. If some barca fans could be crying for sergi Roberto after a draw with Valencia, don't blame man utd fans if they do same for their injured players. I ain't a man utd fan but that's the truth. I didn't want man it'd to qualify though

dmcdad:
Remember, you didn't answer my questions. Anywayz, what is wrong with what debroslink said?

Are you telling me Man Utd had their injuries at the beginning of this season's UCL campaign? C'mon fear God na! Haba!

Day 1 did they have 8 people injured?
Day 2 did they?
How about day 3?
Day 4?
And day 5?

So because they had 8 people missing in day 6 then they weren't supposed to qualify. How about prior?

Abeg, no dey expose yourself jare. I no sabi all these kinda arguments sef wey person go see truth no go gree talk am.

Though man utd has other problems but there are moments you need majority of your materials available to achieve your goals at the last minute no matter how badly you started. We have seen it before in soccer world where a team started badly but came out stronger in competition. A more solid defence yesterday by man utd would have seen them topping the table this morning. If you like behave as if it's not the truth, wolfsburg yesterday was beatable if you watched the match very well. Inclusion of schneiderlin, shaw, rojo, valencia , herrera, jones would have been helpful to them. All wolfsburg 3 goals were largely caused by inexperienced defending. Just imagine your team without mascherano, buscuit, alba, alves, rakitic and pique in a crucial fixture. You know how it will be. So forget all these day 1 day 2 nonsense, man utd was 2nd before yesterday's match

dmcdad:
[s]
At least they have got themselves some goals this season. What has Hazard gotten this season? Even against the worst team ever in Bournemouth, he couldn't do shiit. Abeg leave matter for mathias.

Ohhh my bad, you guys played Bournemouth with your academy players. No?[/s]

Don't divert issues to hazard's or chelsea's. We are not talking about hazard. We are talking about man utd team that had his 8 major players sidelined by injuries not playing yesternight against a wolfsburg team. If barca loses 8 regular players how will they fare? Only sergio roberto was not playing , homesteady was crying all over the thread. address that bro.

dmcdad:
[s]
You are very funny bruv... You mean i actually wanted to escape your response, hence I twisted your stand? Like really? You have been typing some ludicrously annoying stuffs since yesterday but I just turn a blind eye. Why? Because most of you are never tired of endless arguments albeit you are mostly on the wrong side.

Now, leave aside sentiments and tell me the last time an EPL team got itself into the semi finals of the UCL. That's one. Now tell me, when was the last time more than one EPL teams got as far as the quarters? That's two. Now tell me, if EPL has not been in decline since 2012, how come your fourth spot is at risk if any of you guys fail not to make it to the semis? That's three. After answering the aforementioned, now tell me if really EPL ain't in decline.

Now, debroslink saying EPL has been in decline doesn't mean an EPL team wouldn't win a team from La Liga or the Bundesliga. It is just a general view on how EPL teams have been performing over the last 3 years. So, stop that cheap waynof using Sevilla as a reference point since City won them home and away, whereas they won Barca-Madrid. You should know better not to use such as yardstick when comparing sides. Or you wanna tell me because Celta wwon us 4 goals to 1 then Celta can win the Champions League? Of course by your logic one could deduce that, since they won the defending champions. Not to even mention the fact that, this same City happens to be Barça's bitch. Abeg, them no dey judge ball like that jare.

Whether its being exaggerated or not, EPL is on the decline. Anyone who says such ain't exaggerating anything. It is just a fact at this juncture. Just face it bruv and hope your team and other EPL teams brace themselves and improve. Hyping your league and all wouldn't help a bit.

But if it makes you happy, you can keep hyping your league while we keep winning the trophies.[/s]

Stop all these medefegedege. Address how debroslink defined epl being on a decline as quoted below.

Debroslink:
Story for the Devils. From your analogy, Man city will destroy Barca and Madrid right?

When we say EPL is on a decline, we mean the best club in EPL history spent 300m euros, but could not qualify from a group consisting of CSKA, PSV and Wolfsburg. What a shame!

Dikechigozie:
Rip Nkiru.your death is not in vein.we will fight on.Biafra or nothing

That's better stop saying biaffra or death. Rip to the diseased, painful loss.

Krasid:
What opposition? Bate borisov, Leverkusen, and Roma?

Or let's see how barca will fare when 8 of their regulars are sidelined by injuries and they face a team like wolfsburg with their munirus and ambalis in action.

Debroslink:
A shame to Man United is a shame to EPL. 3 la liga teams topped their groups and 1 more may join them today. But when we see the likes of Kiev, Olympiakos, struggling with Chelsea and Arsenal respectively on the final day of group stage, you still will come and quote 2012.

Receive sense.

But a shame to sevilla and valencia who were beaten home and away by epl and russian clubs is not a shame to la liga, right? That is my problem with you, your argument is illogical. If you use one team performance to judge a league as you did in the post i reacted to cos man utd lost out of ucl, then i dont know what to call you. I am not arguing the fact that epl is on a decline with you, using a man utd ouster as you initially did made mince meat of your soccer knowledge.

philfearon:
I hate to say this,but your poor and limited knowledge on Spanish club history and football politics is totally clouding your judgement..

The knowledge of spanish club history and football politics only reside in your brain. When barca was winning matches/trophies with ojoros, nobody stripped them of the laurels, but you guys want us to do same to real madrid, right? That's your headache not FIFA and IFHS who gave real madrid the best club of the century. It's painful to barca fans but that's the fact and what everyone must work with. When pique and etoo turned themselves to goalkeepers stopping balls with their hands, sergio busquets rolling on the ground to get matching orders given to oppponents and barcelona was renamed uefalona, none of you saw it as politics. The fact remains real madrid is the biggest and most successful club of last century, you can't use performances of barcelona in a decade to nullify that of a century. It makes you sound like a dolt.

dmcdad:
Imagine, Debros say EPL dey in decline since 2012, air.mark dey talk something else. Abi him lie ni? Those people funny die.

Imagine say bar City, the rest dey struggle to qualify from very easy group wey them dey. Na wa oooooo. If EPL is not the definition of over-hype, then I wonder what is...

You don't need to edit my moniker in order to escape my response, thats a low from you. You did that because of your twisting my stand. I reacted to what debroslink said below which was senseless, because based on the decline we are supposed not to see any epl team beating a la liga outfit let alone doing it home and away. Below is how debroslink defined epl declining, did it make sense to you too?using a team ouster to define it. Epl is on a decline but not at a ridiculous level some fools here paint it. Man city showed that by beating sevilla, the madrid and barca slayers home and away. The point here is you dont use one team performance to define it.

Debroslink:
Story for the Devils. From your analogy, Man city will destroy Barca and Madrid right?

When we say EPL is on a decline, we mean the best club in EPL history spent 300m euros, but could not qualify from a group consisting of CSKA, PSV and Wolfsburg. What a shame!

ElDeeVee:
Its easy for you to remove Di Steafano's five UCL but you find it hard to remove your dubious UCL wins in 06,09 and 11. You used 12 men to play against virtually all teams.
In 2005, in a second round match against chelsea, barca coach (Frank Rijkard) was seen coming out of the referee's (Anders Frisk) room during the break.
Result: The referee gave Drogba a red card within 10 mins of restart and the rest is history.

The officiating in 2009 against Chelsea was tagged as one of poorest match officiating in UCL history. We know what happened.

Do you know that in a quarter final match against AC Milan, Barcelona were awarded a penalty when the ball was NOT in play

I can go on and on but melo melo la fe wi

My point too. The hypocrites will not see it your way

Krasid:
Watch out bro.We might be back to the Uefalona era once more.The amount of penalties they are recieving this season is shocking.About 9 so far in the league and 2 in the UCL.

Sergio busquets will soon restart rolling on the ground when not touched. Yeye people.

phaamsaam:
Mr u don't need to rant about what u knw nothing about...removing do Stefano's 5straight ucl cups of d medevial era where we all know about Spanish politics and oppressions.I refer u to d stats again barca with the most trophy haul ...uefa n FIFA cups...pls check tanchu

What concerns anyone with spanish politics or what not? Real madrid has 32 la liga titles and 10 UEFA champions league trophies under barcelona's nose. That is a fact. No other club on this earth has beaten that record. what are you talking about? To know the most successful club in the world, it's few taps away via your fingers on your device. Fifa order of merit and IFHS club of the century given to Real madrid is not a joke. Don't disgrace yourself.

phaamsaam:
Please check ur British agency Ihffs stats...then u know for the past 3yrs EPL is on a serious decline...Italy coming back

That may be a good point, but using man utd ejection from ucl this season to state epl is on decline was foolish at best. Man utd fans may tell you the injury problems in the team caused them this ouster and they may have a point. That's the point here.

Debroslink:
When we say EPL is on a decline, we mean the best club in EPL history spent 300m euros, but could not qualify from a group consisting of CSKA, PSV and Wolfsburg. What a shame!

It's a shame to man utd not epl. Man utd's failure to qualify has nothing to do with epl's decline. If an epl team in 2012 that was n't in first four on epl table could knock the laliga champions, barca out, should we say la liga was on decline because of that ? Your guess is as good as mine. Use another point, thats ludicrously senseless.

SIRcumalot:
Memphis will go HAM in this match!!!

Which of the HAMs? Na WEST , FUL or nothing?

dmcdad:
Bro, why not drop this? You wanna be a part the war of words they undergo every now and then?

Let it slide abeg. It's not worth it.

You need to treat homesteady with iron hand. He is an immature, fairweather fan. He is already blaming me for hailing you guys correcting his folly. He is a kiddo.

Debroslink:
When you had Hazard as your best in the league, a player who couldn't deliver them against 10-man PSG, and now I think Vardy is now their best in the league, you know the EPL league is clearly on the decline.
(

On the decline yet an epl team, man city destroyed a la liga team that flogged barcelona and real madrid, home and away.
