Xavi please bench Lewandowski and use somebody else.

We don't mind who, just try someone else they cannot be worse than what Lewan.is giving us presently unless they score an own-goal.

If you try Ferran and he is not good enough, try Marc Guiu, if he's not good enough, try Fermin. Just try someone else. Afterall, RM did not buy Jude to be a striker. And it's not as if he's dribbling from the midfield to overtake their striker to get all the goals he has. The coach tried him and it worked.

Bench Lewandowski for now Abeg.

you guys cry everyday in your thread about how Pep needed billions to win UCL and turn Epl to a farmers league

This is the only way to get back at state-backed clubs

But Chelsea also spent Billions na, why is their case different?

I lived in Mile-12 for about 7 years. That site where this buildings are used to be a terror site of drugs and rape. Kudos to the LCDA Chairman

This transformation and changes should be applauded.

Ajelogo Akanimodo used to be a hide out for criminals and thieves. If a criminal or thief escapes and enters that place; he is gone.

All the sheds were built with planks and old roofing sheets. It was a place where you can buy or sell any stolen thing without receipt.

It used to house every tribe in Nigeria, from Hausas - Igbos - Yorubas - Calabars - Eguns -,Abakalikis - Fulani. Virtually all tribes have their representation there.

I lived in Mile 12 too during the 90s.

Guy, no vex you be joker, walahi You are clearly trolling by now. No, it has to be. So FIFA doesn't take into account performances for clubs? Can you even comprehend what you wrote up there? Like does it make sense to you? I think i'm done discussing with you. This is clearly a waste of time. My apologies.

Andrewbaba44, you see wetin your bro dey talk so? This one don pass whining.

Did Messi deserve to win the Golden Ball at the 2014 World Cup? Yes or No. He is the best to ever do it, no doubt but there are times you feel there is a bias at play. These awards are for a particular period under review. No one is saying Messi isn't the best player in the world, but was he the most outstanding over that particular period of time? Haaland had a better 2023 than Messi. But obviously, he is nowhere near Messi.

To the bolded, Yes Haaland had a better 2023 at club level than Messi at goals.

That is why he got the Premier league highest goals scorer. He deserved it. And got it.

But aside goal scoring in Man. City, what else can you say about him country wise . Messi had a better 2023 at country level which FIFA controls.

This is award for the best player in FIFA by FIFA.

pkasso:
Like when he won the Golden Ball at the 2014 World Cup, abi? Even Sepp Blatter was puzzled. BTW, I don't agree with what those CR7 fanboys say. But you will agree he does get that slight favoritism, especially when the competition is tightest like Lewy in 2021 and Mbappe for the Golden Ball at the last WC.

@Pkasso. Messi winning everything at everytime has nothing to do with favoritism.

Messi is human like everybody else, but his football talents, skills, mastery and influence eclipse every other skillful player's compared to him.

While Messi kind of player comes once in a generation, his compatriots comes around every decade or less. That is why Messi's exploits lingers in many people's memories

I think what you really want is that others should be given awards too to compensate them so that Messi wouldn't monopolies it.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Our club is sinking yet na messi vs cr7 dey interest una.

Eeyah Sorry bros. Wetin you want us to do about the club sinking?. Our last games both in the league and CL have left a bad taste in fans mouth.

Fans who've spoken about the games have done justice to our diverse opinions on both the Coach and the team, so it's like beating a dead horse.

We are gradually becoming like Chelsea fans who have no expectations of their clubs matches, now we applaud if they win and shake our heads if they lose. We are not even sure the team can win the 20th team (Almeria).

So we just hope and take whatever comes. Until end of season before we know where Xavi is taking us.

pkasso:
Why? The award states the period under review is from December 19 2022 to August 2023. Now, tell me what did Messi do post-world cup to merit making top 3, never mind winning the award itself. Is it for crashing out of the CL knockouts without a goal, assist or even shot on target? Statpadding in meaningless friendlies and WC qualifiers? Or is it the buzz generated by him moving to the MLS 'cos I no understand.

I be Messi fan too, but it's things like this that fuel CR7 fans conspiracy theories. It's hard to deny the favoritism on the part of FIFA this time around.

Good you quoted the time involved.

Remember that the award is a FIFA award, so FIFA competitions takes major importance in this issue.

Take away both Messi and Haaland league exploits in their clubs for the time in question.; Haaland has not done anything that surpasses that of Messi during the time-frame.

You called FIFA games meaningless friendlies and WC qualifiers. But you forget that the said "FIFA" awards put points on those too.

Haaland is nothing else but just a goalscorer. Even in that aspect Messi trumps him. After World Cup till date Messi has 8 goals for Argentina while he has 6 goals for Norway .

And you do know that Messi is more than a goal scorer.

Lest I forget. The awards are given based on votes and not selection. The result of the voting, those who voted and who they voted for is usually paste on FIFA website after.

If I'm to vote. I vote Messi

pkasso:
I talk am! FIFA don kolo finish. Wetin Mbappe and Messi play post-WC to deserve podium place? FIFA has only just reinforced CR7 fans belief that Messi gets preferential treatment. I still expect Haaland to win the award sha. Anything else is a robbery.

Your opinion bro. For me it's Messi.

Whatisurproblem:
people no just want get Sense at all, there are things you don't compare. Ok for example. Can you compare purchasing power of #100 in 1967 with #1000 in 2024? Between #100 in 1967 and #1000 in 2024, which one is bigger? Oya let them ague that

My Dad bought his Sanyo TV in 1980 for #120 only. Now TV cost more than 100k.

I doubt if Osimhen would have performed the way he is doing now during the warrior type of football played those days o.

I doubt if Nigeria can ever have another player with Okocha's importance and pedigree. Many tried to step into his shoes but failed. But we will soon see another goalscorer that will surpass Osimhen.

That journalist doesn't know football.

Na Jesus hairstyles we should do be dat.

Do we have the same hair texture and structure like the Hebrews?

While not supporting bad habits; I believe that whichever hairstyles that are acceptable by our government, our culture and our respective religion are okay.

God needs more of what is in your heart and mind. The rest goes to the ants and dust.

Please what happens if INEC conducts fresh elections for their seats in their local governments and they win again under APC.

Note that:
1. These guys too have their supporters also moving from PDP to APC, thereby swelling up the APC stronghold in Rivers.

2. Wike now has the FG and the National ruling party (APC) backing and funding. While not forgetting INEC.

IMO, I think Fubara better call for peaceful resolution before it gets out of control.

Remember say no be every David fit beat Goliath o.

Just my own ten kobo sha

E be like say E no go better for that world bank. Make dem no carry us from frying pan put for fire o.

If Government still dey subsidise petrol, abeg make dem continue o. Don't remove any more subsidy. We beg you.

andrewbaba44:
Zubi said he is not coming to Barca ,so you expect him to disrespect his club and tell them he wants to join Barca ? Common bro

Barca are yet to even table a bid but here you are giving up already

If you throw bid 2 times and la real rejected it then we can understand ,you dig ?

Okay oooo

See as you paint women like say them no get brain to know difference between good and bad

Do you think ladies don't also fancy men's attributes like men fancy women with attributes?
Yet you don't see men going around putting on half shirts just to show 6-packs or big bellies. Neither do men go around wearing leggings or bum-shorts to show how big our dicks are.

We dress and express ourselves decently, yet ladies still go naked or indecently for our attention. Which means that men are the TROPHY to be won in this case.

In actual fact. The population of women is about thrice to that of men. it's ratio 1:3 So the
law of demand and supply comes in.

Moreover, most women are very materialistic in nature, but men are not.
Women like depending on Men while Men hustle to be independent.
Women see men as their only way to live but Men see women as part of life.

If a man is rich; no matter his age, many women, both old and young, married or single, will swarm around him like bees . But compare that to.a rich woman, she may even find it difficult settling down with one man sef.

So no be Men cause any moral decadence. The girls intentionally dress indecently to flaunt their bodies so as to attract men.

Just agree that it's a MAN'S WORLD.

andrewbaba44:
Zubimendi will solve it

Gundogan will give ball away in some situation which I won’t blame him ,this is why you need zubimendi

Zubimendi is the best DM in Laliga as I speak ,Barca should go all out for him

The only other 2 DM I will want for Barca is impossible ,Rodri or that yahoo boy at Madrid

What do you want Barca to do?

Zubi said he's not coming to Barca, you said go all out for him. To do what exactly? Kidnap him? Or prostrate till he agrees?

Note that he has said repeatedly that its not a matter of money, he just doesn't want Barca.
He is one of many who fits the position perfectly, So I suggest we look elsewhere. No be only him dey na.

Just as locally produced stone-rice is very cheaper to imported ones?

You got my point.

Only one was born after Nigeria became Republic.
Most are born before Independence self.

Emmastan291:
Solar panel will now be more expensive

Now, that is a good point you made. I don't understand how that happens? Imported products comes in with high prices under excuse of logistics cost, duty, forex etc.

But when made locally with about 80% of our local raw materials, lower paid labour and lower taxes, it baffles me how the prices jumps to x 3.

ThierryJay:
Aren't we being too hard on Baba Lewy like this? Dont you think his struggles are simply down to his age at 35yrs? With a first touch as heavy as ten hippos, it will be hard for him to improve against increasingly agile La liga defenders.

Make Barca reap some handsome profits and send him to Saudi jejely to play retirement football where even if you spend 2 minutes to control ball, the defenders still never catch up with you.

It's ironic that Lewandowski's messianic complex towards Barca never materialized which he had thought would bring him the Ballon D'or. Harry Kane is now making us to understand the context of his Bayern exploits better.

This cracked me up. Walahi !!!

I win.

You are in love with Stegen. You are everywhere on this guy matter. He plays well, you go talk. He no play well, you go talk. The guy even dey injury no wan let his matter rest. Wetin dey between you and Stegen. Confess now maybe we fit help.

Kilishihunter:
Another striker coming would make it three, And either him or Roque would suffer well in terms of game time
But you might be indeed right about Roque, though we have high hopes for him, the pressure on the kid's shoulder has gradually increased because of lewa's foolishness in front of goal, he was meant to be an understudy so he'll gain experience but when that agbaya is constantly fluffing his lines what do we expect the kid to pick? I just hope Roque shines almost everytime he plays so lewa'll use that competition to step up

Where is Màrc Guiu?
Someone asked this question earlier, nobody answered. That guy is another fine prospect in the shadows o.

OGUN state is very pissfull.

Na wa o ! Barcelona my club. This is more like witchcraft work o. Alaves leading by 1 goal. Is Xavi playing this match with Barca ' B' players?

If its hard to beat Alaves convincingly. There is problem everywhere.

OhBritannia:
It's funny how a 36 years old Luis Suarez is banging hatricks in one of the hardest football league in the world in Brazil and a 35 years old Lewandowski in Spain and a young Ferran Torres and Rafinha has all turned to statue in our front line in Barcelona.

It's like some cules don't understand how embarrassing this is.

The old legends that have left will all be shaking their heads in shame right now.

I don't even understand the type of strikers we have anymore. 90 mins game with between 7 - 12 goal scoring chances yet our front line finds it difficult to get 2 or more goals.

Strikers primary job is to score. And games are decided by goals, not possession or chances.

Our top striker has just 5 goals in 12 games in la liga. And he is our highest goal scorer this season with just 5? Obviously, something must be done.

Maybe we should just allow anybody who can position and shoot play that position because the strikers are playing like they don't have the mojos anymore.

Abeg. Wetin be the work of all these Special Assistants o? Because me I'm not understanding whassagoan inna dis a kontree.

Protests induced by illiteracy. I am very sure none of the protesters understand why their preferred candidate was removed by the court.

I'm not even sure if any of them can read what is written on the cardboard they are holding.

But wait o. I thought this protest is for the people.

Abeg. How come all the writing style on all the cardboards looks the same As if written by one person.

Abi na only the sacked NASS member sabi write for that place?

This country people sef. We no dey trust anybody again.

We no trust Politicians.
We no trust Police.
We no trust Our Tradional Leaders.
We no trust Our Religious Leaders.
We no trust INEC.
And we no trust COURTS again.

Who we go fit trust. I'm not sure we trust God sef.

Na wa o.

Haaaa ! Barca spoilt a game I've been nursing for over 6 days now.

Why me? :

Almost everything about female body fashion and beauty is polluted with fake and artificial sexuality.

From their head to their toe. No inborn beauty any more. Most of them are fond of putting off the light for them to go naked in presence of their spouse.

Imagine scouting and courting a fine babe with pointy big boobs and big ass for 3 years, starving yourself of sex to remain pure till marriage. Only to find out on your wedding night honeymoon that you just married an Ojuju with slippers breasts and flat hardened ass woman.

And then one Pastor will say "What God as joined together... bla bla bla .... Nna eh? Wahala must to dey.
