Shaqiri was once Bayern's best attacker not named Robben, Ribery in their treble season. He was Stoke's best last season. He's a very good player.

Tell them oo....
Shaqiri don turn average cuz he played for relegated Stoke

Stoke player of the year with 8 goals and 8 assists in the worst season for the club plus he created the 5th highest number of chances in EPL last season.

Tomorrow they will say Zaha is an average player cuz he plays for average Palace

Dem keep underating players in small clubs.

That is why Man City got Mahrez and Liverpool got Big Shaq and United didn't even put a fight to get these players who were desperate to join big clubs

Salah don open his account.
Golden Boot Race is ON !!!

Leicester are playing Man U half field in Old Trafford

That is how Mourinho plays.

Score 1 goal and park bus for 90 minutes

For Old Trafford they pack bus for common Leicester.

I dont understand why Rashford is wearing no 10.
Last time i checked center backs dont wear 10

Plus they denied him the joy and ability to fling his shield to kick asses far away and them return. I really missed that in Infinity Wars.
Is the emboldened the new movie title?

Yes, it's not yet confirmed sha.
But according to pretty strong rumours....Avengers Endgame is the title of the next movie.

newjosboy:
And I wonder why Captain America did not appear with his blue, red and whit regalia and shield. Am I the only one who noticed it?

Marvel are fond of changing his suit.
He has won at least 3 different suits in 6 movies now.

But this time they completely removed the iconic red, blue and white theme of the American flag and gave him a new shield.

The new shield looks cool but i prefer the old one.

My only complaint about Cap is the less screen time.
I still cant believe that a dickhead like Starlord got more screen time than Cap

I wanna see more of Cap in ...Avengers Endgame.

At least he's not like his mates from that particular part of the country that is always spoiling Nigeria's image abroad.

As far as the Blackmanta moniker is concerned, I can only argue MCU movies with you when I have nothing better to do. You probably couldn't trust yourself to come up with tangible points after I neutered your bs on Black Panther. Black Panther, an average forgettable MCU movie, and you couldn't even come up with legit points to negatively critic. Maybe that's why you had to copy half of your Infinity War rant from Screenrant (Yeah, I now remember why your post looked familiar). Dude, since all the MCU movies you've been seeing are trash, why are you still watching? Do you like to torture yourself so much or are you just that jobless?
There are very few perfect things in this world. Look closely at anything and you'll find flaws, if flaws are what you seek. Avengers: Infinity War is not a perfect movie. But it is an awesome one.

P.S: This Marvel freak and fanboy was defending Man of Steel on the DCEU thread recently.
Fun Fact: You were nowhere to be found. But you're never far away from MCU bashes.

Lies, propaganda and bullshite.

When did i ever claim that MCU movies are trash

I challenge you to bring up any quote i made where i balantly claimed that MCU is trash.

I'm waiting bro...

If you want to judge me for exposing the flaws in your beloved movie, then do with with facts and logic not lies and propaganda.

The only crime i commited was pointing out the flaws in Infinity War.

BOOM....

All hell lets loose...
Marvel fanboys and zealots want to cut off my head and banish me from NL

Haba!

I challenged you to defend all the flaws in Infinity War and you turn weak.

You are now admiting that no movie is without flaws.

GOOD!

So why are you angry cuz someone pointed out the flaws

I just dont understand.

The flaws have been exposed, it's all over the internet.
You saw it at Screenrant and turned a blind eye...

I had watched the movie first time and barely noticed the flaws.
I watched it again and again and then i saw the glaring flaws.

I visited the CBM fandom and VOILA!....more flaws exposed.

I pointed out the flaws on this thread in a neat constructive and polite manner and someone wants to fight me.

KILODE!

The truth is MCU franchise will come and go but fanboys remain fanboys.

Abeg no stab me oo....i take god beg you

anonymuz:
I respect your opinion. But logically, who do you think is responsible for nature??

Nature is beyond our thinking.

It cannot be explained with holy books and mythological interpretations.

We can only try our best to understand nature.

Science has gone a long way to explain natural phenomenons but still there are some unanswered questions.

In my opinion...

Religion and superstitious belief came as a result of man's inability to explain nature.

Take for example...

A natural phenomenon like thunder and lightnings was beyond man's thinking faculty.

Man tried to explain thunder and lightning but couldn't.
So he came up with a theory that a supernatural being was behind it.....

That is how god of thunder came to be...
The greeks had Zeus...
The Vikings had Thor...
Yourubas had Sango...
Igbos had Amadioha....

Many tribes and ethnic groups had god of thunders.

Until man started evolving and think outside the box of superstition.

Science gained more attention.
Myths like flat earth was eliminated.

And when Science explained thunder as a natural phenomenon....
The so called fictious god of thunders started fading.

Come to think of it...
Who takes Zeus, Thor and Sango seriously these days.

Most people have relegated these gods to the genre of fiction and myths.

The truth is....anything superstitous will die a natural death once science finds a good answer.

Although i doubt superstitous beliefs and god factor will ever completely fade away.

But until then i choose science over religion and dogma.

I still keep an open mind tho...
If someone can convince me beyond all doubts that some invisible supreme being exist, i'm open to change.

But until then...I'm Agnostic.

anonymuz:
God is real and he does not permit evil

He permits evil 100%.
Evil happens everyday.

Yesterday a little girl of 5 was raped to death.
The news graced the front page of nairaland.

Your god knew about it but refused to save the innocent girl.
Rather he sat on his throne sipping palm wine.

I'm an agnostic atheist.

I cant say for sure if any god exist.
And even if any god exists, i'm 100% sure he doesn't give a fvck about this world.

Evil happens to anybody.
Even innocent and good people are not spared.

Deal with it...

charliboy654:
My thoughts exactly, why would god even allow the incident occur in the first place?

Na yeye god be that.

Is it not the same god that allows accidents to occour on the road, 14 people would die and 1 would survive.
The 1 survivor would go to church and do thanksgiving to praise this god for saving his life while abandoning 14 to die.

Na god of mediocrity

JackBizzle:
In the words of Cinemasins:

"No movie is without sin".

Exactly bro...

"No movie is without sin"

Then why do fanboy always act like their favourite movie is spotless.

The way people rate movies on these thread always baffles me.

I see 9/10 and 10/10 and i'm like..."Is this movie really that good"

And when you point out a flaw, some people will start complaining.

I cant remember the last time i gave a movie 9/10 or 10/10 since the days of masterpeices like Matrix, Titanic, Lord of the Rings, Interstellar, Dark Knight and Avatar.

gustav25:
Still doesn't change the fact that you are a very bitter person when it comes to Marvel ..Maybe the comics will tell you more

Your comic department ain't doing any better and pls how does your comic books cleanse the flaws in your movie

Last time i checked "Rebirth" is talk of the town among comic book fans.

Kaycee7:
Someone has been reading the whinings of movie critics looking for traffic. Do you get paid to hate the MCU or is it like a hobby you really enjoy?

Defend all the flaws i pointed out and i will doff my cap for you.

Until then you are just a Marvel freak and fanboy who will never see the flaws in your movie...NEVER.
You will always turn a blind eye to it and pretend like its a perfect 10/10 movie, that is how fanboys behave.

And when someone points out a flaw.
That person becomes a bitter hater who is allegedly being paid to criticize Marvel.

Infinity War is never a 10/10 movie.
At best a 7.5 to 8.
Dont act like it has no flaws.

gustav25:
dude you are one bitter somebody... Everything Marvel frets you

I enjoy Marvel movies but i'm not a freak or fanboy.

I will always give an honest review and i will never try to cover up the flaws in a movie no matter how good that movie is.

If that is bitterness to you then that your own cup of tea.

Characters were made to look stupid and weak in Infinity War.

That is the simple truth.

Check the last 3 pages of this thread and you'll see i'm not the only one that is saying it.

Abi those monikers are also bitter people

Infinity War is so good i will pay money to watch part 2 but i dont want them to deliberately repeat the same glaring flaws.

If you think the movie has no flaws.
Come and defend all those points i raised.
Come and defend the undefendable.
I'm waiting.

My 2 cents.

oyetpel:
No mind the guy defending the undefendable.

Everyone with common sense knew the Avengers were made to look stupid and weak, to project Thanos as the ultimate badass villain. That's why i don't subscribe to people speculating who will win a fight between two superheros.

No be ordinary wong comot this one hand? Or the guy mean to tell me say Thanos wrist is made of iron?

Wow...i'm glad that you guys are seeing what i'm seeing.

Characters were made too stupid and weak so that Thanos can win.

That is the one thing i hated about Infinity War.

From Hiemdall snubing Thor, Loki and Space Stone to save a stranger he met yesterday.

Gamora heading straight to Thanos instead of staying as far away from him as possible since she is the key to finding soul stone.

Oh...i forgot to mention Loki trying to kill Thanos with a kitchen knife a few seconds after handing him the Space stone and making him stronger.

What about Iron Man trying to talk Starlord into calming down instead holding him or better still...knock him out cold.

And a 6-stoned-IG failing to withstand Thor's new axe.
Wow....wow....wow....so much for being the most powerful weapon in the universe.

What about Thor's inconsistent power levels.

And...Oh...Doctor Strange would sacrifice a stone to save Tony's life....just one life....so that Thanos could wipe out millions of lives.

And few minutes later....Cap and Black Panther would sacrifice half of Wakanda's army to protect a stone.
................The hypocrisy and double standard is glaring.

I understand that Thanos was going to win but that shouldn't involve making characters look stupid on screen.

Come to think of it....Thanos ain't the first CBM villain to win.

Joker won in TDK.
Ozymandais won in Watchmen.
Zemo won in civil war.
Lex Luthor won in BVS.

Why cant Thanos win confortably without Avengers looking weak and stupid

I hope part 2 will avoid repeating these mistakes.
Thanos is going to loose in part 2 but that shouldn't involve making him weak and stupid on screen.



My 2 cents.

Jidibia:
Everyone wants to know the phone I am using when the see my Umidigi A1 pro. I am even scared of being robbed cus of my Umidigi A1 pro cus the phone is too attractive. And nothing sweet me like the type c fast charge on the phone. It takes 80 minutes to charge from 0% to 100%. I am so glad I bought this phone. I was even lucky I got mine so cheap during one flash sale like that. I got it for 28k as against 35k. Dual 4g, Otg and OTA support. What else could I have asked for in a 28k phone? Whopping 3gb ram. I am so so happy with this purchase.

Are you a heavy user.
How long does A1 pro lasts on heavy usage?

Lexusgs430:
I have 3 umidigi devices, so I feel I am in a better position to give you my unbiased opinion....

If you don't mind an average camera output in low light conditions..... It ticks the right boxes in all other aspects.....

I could care less about camera.
I seldom take pictures.

I like a good battery of at least 4000mah.
I can manage a 2/16GB memory so long as the device has a long lasting battery.
Snapdragon is my choice but i can manage MTK.


What about the 3 Umidigi devices?

Hello house.

I'm looking to buy an UMIDIGI phone.
My budget is 35k.
My major focus on specs are good memory of at least 2 or 3GB/32GB and battery of at least 4000mah.

Can you suggest a good phone for me?

I dont have very good knowledge of UMIDIGI phones, so i thought i should ask UMIDIGI fans.

if i can actually control my thoughts and actions and the next man cant, its still not safe for her. that is my point. But it is possible for her to be safe completely, by dressing well. once a person is raped, the damage is done. the injuries are inflicted. the downward spiral begins. but it can be prevented to a very reasonable extent.

so dressing conservatively will keep women completely safe from rape

You are wrong bro...

I support conservative dressing but there is more that goes on in the mind of rapist than just dressing.

Ever been to India
Over 90% of their women dress conservatively and yet the same women that dress conservatively gets raped everytime.

Rape in India is so high even though most women cover up.

Why is this so

I'm telling you bro...dressing conservatively wont reduce the rate of rape by any more than 10%.

Trust me on that.

Over here in Nigeria.
Little children gets raped, even little babies.

I see the news every week on nairaland.

Are the little children and babies not dressing conservatively

They dress well but rapist still target them.

If we want to reduce the rate of rape drastically, then we must broaden our mindset and have a bigger and better perspective of the picture.

That said....

A lot needs to be done...
A lot needs to be done than just dressing well.

The words are.....A LOT !

I saw the comment of a guy who claims that dressing well will reduce the rate of rape DRASTICALLY !

He used the word drastically.

How wrong was he !!!

We are yet to see the picture from a better perspective and that is part of the problem.

Issa PITY...

TruffleButter:
The first one took 10years as well. I believe the whole movie is 3d generated and he said something about lacking the technology to create 3d underwater...Basically technology is the only thing setting the timeframes back.

Are you sure there's no technology for 3D underwater yet
There's a an action fantasy movie set in an underwater kingdom of Atlantis coming out December this year in IMAX 3D.

Beorn:
Spoiler Alert. Spoiler Alert.

LOL. You just dey vex. I think you missed a key point in that Gamora issue. Gamora and Co went to planet Knowhere with the intention of collecting the reality stone from The Collector before Thanos would get to him because Thor had already told them that it'd be Thanos next port of call. It's why Gamora told Quill to kill him in case Thanos gets to her. If she knew Thanos had already gotten the reality stone, she'd have bailed. So, Gamora didn't know that Thanos had already gotten there first, collected the reality stone and craftily waited for them to come. Thanos is very wise and knowledgeable. But I still think Gamora was stupid taking that risk knowing she'd be running away since Thanos would inevitably come for her to lead him to the soul stone even if they had gotten the reality stone before him. Then she'd have sacrificed her sister for the greater good and refuse to reveal the map of the stone to Thanos, or better still kill herself to conceal the map to the stone.

In the light of all these, I think it's option 1 that's the plot hole here, not Gamora's foolishness.

SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT

Why go to Knowhere in the first place when Thor has already told you that it'll be Thanos next point of call
Abi Gamora cant go with Thor instead of going to the place where Thanos will be heading to.

And please dont tell me that Gamora didn't know or consider the posibility that Thanos might get to Knowhere before her.

She even considered the posibility that Thanos would capture her in Knowhere, isn't that why she asked Quill to kill her before Thanos takes her away

She knew the consequences and calculated the risk beforehand but decided to take a very stupid decision by heading to the more dangerous path.

And dont bullsh*t me with the reality stone bladerdash....
Dont tell me that Quill, Drax and Mantis cant, at least, attempt the mission without Gamora.

There is no excuse for Gamora's stupidity and that is a gaping plot in my opinion.

I understand that the producers were trying to make Thanos win but that shouldn't involve making characters look stupid on screen.

.....and yes....I dey vex

Beorn:
Spoilers Alert.

In the second scene, the axe Thor wield is different from the the axe that was destroyed in Thor Ragnarok. This axe is more powerful and was specifically designed to kill Thanos. It's the axe that can kill Thanos, that's why even with the 6 stones, Thanos couldn't stop it.



Not only it. Why didn't Strange make the sacrifice of allowing Stark die at the hands of Thanos so that Thanos wouldn't get his hands on the time stone that enabled him turn back the hands of time and get the mind stone from Vision. I guess the he agreed to it after having seen there's one way of still defeating Thanos.

SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT

Okay i agree with the axe being on par with IG for now.

Doctor Strange sacrificing time stone to save Tony is not a plot hole.
Afterall, he looked into the future and saw one way to beat Thanos.
Maybe that one way involves Tony being alive.
So let's overlook that scenario.

Oh...i found yet another stupid thing in that movie

*picks up the mic...

Gamora is the only one that knows where soul stone is hidden.
Gamos knows that Thanos will get more powerful with soul stone and the universe is in much danger.

By analyzing this situation we can all agree that Gamora should stay as far away from Thanos as possible.
So that Thanos wont know her secret.

Infact Gamora should have followed Thor.
Or maybe help out in the Wakanda battle.

But Fvck NO!

Gamora went straight to Thanos like a brainless slowpoke.
Thanos captures Gamora.
Thanos gets to know her secret.
And...fiam!.....Thanos gets the soul stone.
Thank You Gamora....for making a stupid decision that doomed the entire uiniverse.

This is a familiar case of producers making characters look stupid so that the villain gets to win.

Which one is more stupid....

1
Hiemdall snubing Thor,Loki and space stone to save a stranger he met yesterday.

OR

2
Gamora handing Thanos the soul stone on a platter of gold.

And the award for most stupid thing in Infinity War goes to.....

*drops mic...

Emekus92:
I will say Thor is 20% strong without his hammer. while his hammer represents 80% of him.
I can't remember watching Thor and Thanos fighting..

I can't call those 2 scenes fight

The 1st scene I don't know what to call it

The 2nd scene is just a show off of who has the strongest weapon.

SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT

Thor is 20% strong without hammer
Before Ragnarok i would agree to that statement.

After Ragnarok......Nah.

In Ragnarok we learnt that the hammer was ONLY there to help him channel his power.
Thor is still 100% powerful with or without hammer.
His father confirmed this in Ragnarok.

In ragnarok he mastered his power.
He had no need for the hammer anymore as he could do sufficient damage without it.
He could now channel his power freely without need of hammer.

He pounded hulk and held his own against Hela without his hammer.
So i see no reason why he cant hold his own against Thanos and his minions.
Thanos had only 1 stone then...just one!
Thor's power levels is inconsistent.
But i will overlook that plot hole since i didn't see the full fight.

The second fight is not about showing whoose weapon is better.
Excuse me, i beg to disagree.

But the new axe is nothing compared to Infinity Gauntlet with 6 stones.

A 6 stones IG is the most powerful weapon in Marvel universe.
The new axe is nowhere near IG in comparison.

Sure, it can cut Thanos skin but it is not a better weapon than IG.


And oh....i just found another senseless thing in that movie.
Much more senseless than Loki attacking Thanos with kitchen knife

Explain this to me....

Why did Hiemdall save Hulk by transporting him to Earth.

Let's say Heimdall is dying and had little strength in him.
He can only save and teleport one person...OKAY.
Who should he teleport

1. Loki
2. Space Stone
3. Thor, The Prince of Asgard and Hiemdall's close friend.

Hiemdall goes...."Fvck Loki, Thor and Space Stone.
Let me save Hulk, a stranger i met yesterday in the final battle of Ragnarok!"

That is the most stupid thing in that movie.

In his next life, Hiemdall should work on his decision making.
It sucks:/

krattoss:
lol.. But Thor has an edge over all of em via say he is a God. Unlike Dr strange who is a wizard

Wanda is also dope. The weakest of em all is that wakanda king(don't know his name) followed by spider man

SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT

SKIP THIS POST IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED INFINITY WAR!

Thor's power levels in infinity war was terribly inconsistent

Let me elaborate.

SCENE 1 vs Thanos :
Thor gets beaten and subdued by Thanos who had only 1 stone.

SCENE 2 vs Thanos :
Thor beats Thanos and nearly kills him even though Thanos now has all 6 stones.

So are the producers trying to tell us that Thor can hold his own against Thanos who has all 6 stones but will get his ass handed to him by Thanos who has only 1 stone

I enjoyed the movie at first but when i watched it again and again, i started picking the gaping plot holes.
Infact there are several plot holes in the movie.

Also Loki hands Thanos the Space Stone, making Thanos stronger and then Loki tries to attack Thanos with a kitchen knife....what a dunce

Beorn:
I meant their cinematic universe not the comics. You'd have known that since I was talking about the Avengers movie.

You clearly wrote DC COMICS are lagging behind.
That is why i reacted that way.

Everybody knows DC produce the best COMICS.
While Marvel produce the best movies.

Comics and movies are two different things, you dont pack everything in one basket

Beorn:
After watching Avengers: Infinity War, you'll realise that DC Comics are seriously lagging behind. The gap between them is too ridiculous.

Avengers: Infinity War. 8/10.

DC COMICS are not lagging behind.
It is their cimenatic universe that is lagging behind.

They may be making better movies but Marvel is nowhere near DC in Comic Books.

The new 52 comic book series was reigning back then.
And now DC is dominating again with Rebirth comic book series.

I cant even remember any Marvel comic book series.

Marvel make better movies.
But when it comes to comic books, DC beats them hands down.

N.B : There is a difference between cinematic universe and comic book universe.

DC cinematic universe may be lagging behind.

But saying that DC Comics is lagging behind is utter blasphemy.

No Comic book reader would ever say that.

You only watch movies, you know nothing about comics.

Dpharisee:
Where is our page 0
I thought my comment didnt make it to first page but second page

Despite how beautiful Ahmed Musa goal against Iceland was (better than this Pavard) somebody told me the Europeans will not allow an African to win it and I told the person to watch and see how our own Ahmed will get the prize, now I dont know how to go and face him.

The winner is decided by votes.
Benjamin Parvard had the highest number of votes.

Musa lost out because Nigerians, even with a population of 180 million people and over 40 million football fans and internet users, could not support their own by voting.

Blame the Nigerians that didn't vote for Musa, most of them could care less.

phaamsaam:
Dembele had two injuries last season, even at that go and look at his stats ratio, stop spitting rubbish, his last season in Dortmund without injuries says it all, he needs to stay fit and follow his diet plan strictly, he would blossom this season, as for Liverpool the transfers are always from them to us, so that's fake news lol

I did not say Dembele is a bad player.
He is a good player.

But not good enough to bench anyone in Liverpool front three, so why paying 100m when Salah can always make him warm the bench

Disregard the rumours.
It doesn't make sense at all.

Dembele is a good player.
But in Liverpool he will be a bench warmer cuz there's someone better than him.

That is my point....chikena.

Coutinho14:
Liverpool are ready to pay over a 100m euros for him but Barça have declared him "not for sale",I think he is the second best youngster in the world right now but he is low on confidence. this season should be great considering he was hit with injuries last season and a couple players have left (paulinho and Iniesta) so he gets more chances to prove himself

You say wetin

Dembele will be a bench warmer at Liverpool.
35m Salah is better than Dembele in all ramifications.
Dembele got nothing on Salah, Firmino and Mane.
Liverpool would never pay 100m for Dembele to warm bench for them.
They rather take him on loan.
Ignore any rumour of Liverpool willing to pay 100m for Dembele.
That's just Dembele's agent hyping his player with fake news just to attract other clubs.

You forgot this is FIFA and their competition is world cup.

Klopp is one of the nominees.

It's actually 12 nominees not 11.
