Danielnino00:
Is that how you do?

You judge one person based on the action of another ?

Is Lampard even biased?
I don't think so..
It isn't his fault that Chelsea got a transfer ban before he took over.. He simply tried to manage with what he has..

Gerrard is doing very well at Rangers,you can check his record..
Whatever you think of him won't change the fact that he is very much likely to be Klopp's successor..

All this "English coaches are bias" talk is nonsense in my opinion... The correct phrase should be "English coaches are mediocre" .
Go to laliga and you will see how Spanish players are the majority in almost every team.. Same goes to Germany, France and Italy.
Should we say the indigenous coaches there are bias too?

Okay, English coaches have a history of mediocrity

Gerrard at Liverpool will be a disaster

Christology:
with timo Werner successful transfer to Chelsea, I think time is coming to an end for Abraham at Stanford bridge,greenwood will definitely get the nod for a national team call up , so his career both national team and club football is surely going down the drain.

He has scored 15 goals in a season in the premier league..that's an okay form for a young player

It's too early to rush to such conclusions about his career

chucs:
You are correct about the defence but Lampard is such a shitty manager. He even makes work very difficult for his apologists. This same defence played last couple of seasons together so why are they conceding goals like no mans biz under his watch. This is not to say that we dont need improvement in that department.

So many wrong selections and wrong substitutions. Midfielders doesn't help defenders and they dont provide passes for attackers. How can he play Mount and Barkley in thesame midfield? You are gonna suffer the other midfielder cuz those 2 doesnt stay in midfield. They are not even technically gifted.

Lamps is a mediocre coach for me and he doesn't have any room for improvement.

This is the reason o don't trust English coaches and I also don't want Gerrard near Liverpool, not now, not ever..

Mujtahida:
Thanks brother. I am fine. I trust you are doing well too. Stay safe. God bless.

Bro, you just disappear like that without a trace

Trust all is well sha...

abcnn:
These are speculations, you do not know. And if the problem is that he does not want to go to Italy because of racism, shouldn't that be a valid concern?

As posted by someone here, the mayor of the city of Naples himself debunked such claims and categorically said that they don't tolerate racism in Naples. Even Kalidou confirmed that...so what's the fuss with racism abi una think say English people be saints? I thinks it may be worse in England sef

Haters gonna hate.

Instead of you to pray about your appeal, you're walking like a model on runway

Dey there, na for hot tears everything go still end

Danielnino00:
What if he is diabetic ?

Nice comeback

Joebie:
Your analogy is apt. women usually have several suitors and they usually are very careful not to make a mistake, or as they would see it, they want to make the best choice. It is the fear of making a mistake that can make an individual act like that. It's a natural thing. Quite similar with players that have dual or more nationalities. Add to that, age is a factor. Let the young boy really think it through. No pressures from Napoli -- Perfetto!

Bros, isn't it obvious?

Its not fear of mistakes in this case, it is a desire to play for an EPL team.

This is the reason many are annoyed with the lad

Do you think he would ask to think it through if Everton comes with 40 million?

Let us call a spade a spade,, this guy has been hoodwinked by the false allure of the EPL

TheGoodJoe:
Then repay them with respect. Tell them it is a no.

SIMPLE...

He is acting like a woman that a guy is asking out. The whole thing is becoming annoying

Danielnino00:
What if he isn't really interested in moving there ?

Let him stay at Lille then, make we hear word

Them put sugar for person mouth, him talk say na Agbo him wan drink

A bit of humor for my heartbroken Chelsea fans

BUS CONDUCTOR: Oshodi!
ME: Owa o!
BUS CONDUCTOR: Charley Boy!
GIRL: I am here!
BUS CONDUCTOR:

Edopesin how far.......

Wetin your boys chop today.....

Or are they seeing their periods?

Danielnino00:
Bye bye Norwich..

Is their relegation confirmed?

ugo4u:
If that attack is not well planned and executed with the right equipments it will end in tears..
The guys that were ambushed this week weren't sitting down in their base waiting for BH to strike , they were going for a clearance operation when they struck an IED.
It's not as easy as we civilians see see these things it's alot more complicated than we are thinking. There are many intelligent and bright officers in the army to make things work but as outsiders somethings no go make sense to us.

Bro, about this recent ambush, from the pics of the dead I saw, I don't think it was just mines that did them in but bullets too....in fact, it looks .like anything but mines

QuadrilAyinde:
GERMANY AND JAPAN WERE THE AGGRESSORS in WORLD WAR II, HOW DID THAT WORK OUT FOR THEM? HOW ARE THEY SEEN BY HISTORY?

It's not about how strikes first, IT'S ABOUT WHO IS STILL THERE AFTER THE STRIKING IS DONE.

Those are Nations...we are talking about terrorists here...and they had the whole world against them, so its a different scenario entirely

TheLoneCitizen:
Ogenyi Onazi in advanced talks to join Serbian champions Crvena Zvezda also called Red Star Belgrade. His contract expires in 15 days, after which he'll become a free agent.

Okay....make we dey look

Mugiwaraluffy:
BH are not fighting conventional warfare with NA. They employ guerrilla tactics and occasionally use advantage of large numbers against small troops
Check out Vietnam war, communist vs nationalist in China, Cuba etc. Guerrilla army are just annoying and sometimes difficult to fight.

I know...the numbers thing can be curbed if the FG/NA mounts a daring offensive on different fronts to just crush them once and for all....that's if they invest money in the right weaponry sha

The best form of defence is attack you know

ugo4u:
I agree we're supposed have a change of tactics and be on the offensive, but military tacticians will tell you they need the right equipments to do so, pre 2015 elections ebenlow's PMC together with 72MSF routed Bokoharam within 4 weeks seizing all territories from them.
This isn't difficult for the army to do of given the level of support those guys where given, note they had a dedicated attack helicopter, assorted weapons a tech gadgets at their disposal to carryout their operations and they were paid in millions of dollars.
Hopefully we will get it right someday.

PS
Bokoharam is not a ragtag militia if you know you know, especially when they formed alliance with ISWAP.

J thought the considered themselves enemies with different factional leaders

Exactly bro....I just imagine amassing 30 brand new (not fairly used) modern tanks for the mission....that's where you'll see Book Haram shouting "blood of Jesus"

ChrisKels:
Just imagine

Lollll

Why you dey vex na?

Na Barca fans fit craft the thing sef...

Utonwanne:
Osimhen matter come be like that of Foreign born kids....Udokhai, Torunagharia, etc

Dribbling Napoli while waiting for EPL clubs

Same thing Ebere Eze is doing us now

This thing may back fire on the lad oooo..

Why doesn't be just take up the Napoli offer and perform well next season while hoping for the EPL in future... That amount is u precedented. It shows they really love the lad

explosiveskull:
Yea, captain Broward do piss inside and is scared of engaging the talibans sef, he was immediately relieved of duty.

Lollll

Remember in the movie, they said he had survived multiple deployments in Iraq..that's how he survived apparently

ugo4u:
Honestly, the implementation of the super camp strategy has improved alot of things especially base defence setup. Hescos are now a common site in bases in theatre of operations even now excavators are used to dig trenches unlike when soldiers dug same with shovels.
It's a gradual process the HESCOs are very expensive nevertheless most of these things are already being implemented/used.

But bros, a ragtag group of insurgents shouldn't hold the mighty NA (with a long history of gallantry) to ransom like that....we should be on the attack and they defend....na so e suppose be na...

odimbannamdi:
I honestly wasnt very impressed with the movie. It wasnt as action-packed as i thought. The main action began from the middle of the movie when the Talibans attacked.

But i really admire the sense of brotherliness and love the soldiers shared. See how Pt. Carter refused to let specialist Mace bleed out there when he got shot. They all immediately began to donate blood for him and his life was saved.

Those 2 Captains (Keating and Yllescason or so) that died in quick succession bothered me. Captain Broward would have died too, if not that he was "coward", according to Pt. Carter.

The movie was still worth the time though

The reason for the apparent lack of action at the beginning of the movie was because the director wanted to strictly follow the real life events as they unfolded....according to the soldiers that were there, the Taliban didn't attack in full might at first because thy were probing the American defenses at first to understand all about it: their reaction time, location of their armor depot, personnel count etc.....

I'm sure Boko Haram attacks our vulnerable positions in the same way....with large, overwhelming numbers

QuadrilAyinde:
There is a Great piece I'd love to share on this topic...

THE SUCCESSFUL LIEUTENANT
(by CAPTAIN CHRISTOPHER J. COURTNEY, currently the commander of Alpha Company, 306th MI Battalion at Fort Huachuca).

He Highlighted what he termed as THE TEN RULES OF SUCCESS (AND RESPECT) BEING ACHIEVED BY A LIEUTENANT

(1) Lead from the front
(2) Put the Troops first
(3) Lead Via ur Platoon Sergeant and Squad leaders
(4) Training is your No 1 priority
(5) Inspect what U expect
(6) Know what U do not know and do something about it
(7) Guard your Integrity
( Understand the roles of the other leaders
(9) Learn to make do with Scarce resources and personnel
(10) Remember to have fun and never lose ur sense of humour

HIS FOOTNOTE....

The lieutenant years are some of the most rewarding and memorable of your Army career. I will not mislead you and tell you that every day will be pleasant, but as you meet all the challenges, your confidence will grow. You will experience both great successes and many disappointments along the way. If you remember the points listed above and use your common sense, you are well on your way. Learn from your mistakes and do notrepeat them.

IN CLOSING, YOU WILL NOTE THAT NOWHERE DID I HIGHLIGHT OFFICER'S EVALUATION REPORTS OR HOW TO IMPRESS YOUR SENIOR RATER. IF YOU ALWAYS LEAD BY RIGHT EXAMPLE, TRAIN YOUR TROOPS, TAKE CARE OF SOLDIERS, MAINTAIN BOTH YOUR EQUIPMENT AND YOUR INTEGRITY, AND DEVELOP YOURSELF AS A PROFESSIONAL, THOSE MATTERS WILL TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES.

Bro, no disrespect but this sounds too theoretical

In an actual war setting with stressed men and a dire situation, how would a lieutenant maintain the calm?

explosiveskull:
It happened in platoon after that scar faced sergent gave out orders about ambush squad, the way that officer rushed him with respect to tell him that it is necessary he gives orders, oga na so dem dey beg for respect ?

You saw it in platoon right?

That sergeant barnes was a walking time bomb....I woinder if it happens in Borno

What about the level of respect a young lieutenant can expect from his troops? particularly the very experienced NCOs...

Can we start a conversation about this?

ChrisKels:
Based on hearsay, or you have actually seen him play?

I have...nothing out of the ordinary

komekn:
That doesn't mean he will bench anybody immediately but he will contend with any striker in any team in the EPL.

He is has physicality and technical finesse and be is not slow.

24 goals in the Championship this season and counting is not a fluke.

So, he will contend with Mane, Salah, Aguero, Vardy, Ings, Aubameyang, etc

Your opinion is a big joke Sir

Joebie:
Nothing spectacular about that Zaidu guy from watching the 1st half.

I said so long before now

He isn't better than our options currently
