Why Havertz Dey always do wrong pass when we are supposed to push counter attack ? 🤦‍♂️

It’s either he’s doing a wrong pass or he’s being too complacent with the ball and gets dispossessed easily

airmark:
Well, City are still holding on to Haaland while Bayern and Barca are still with old traditional strikers. And Vlahovic is still playing for the old ladies too.

It's majorly lack of quality strikers that made the likes of Jackson and Morata to be starting for big clubs and not because most clubs have moved on. Madrid are just an exception and they still bowed against City when Fraudiola added Haaland and won Ucl under their nose.

City won the league without a standing 9 striker . Loserpool did the same thing . Madrid also won the UCL doing same .

The world has moved beyond all that . Once u have a balanced team , u can win silverware; u don’t necessarily need to have a Haaland type of striker to win silverware

airmark:
Luiz Diaz is a winger drafted to replace that wasteful Nunez upfront though. Wingers are expected to be skillful.

What he was trying to drive home is, a Drogba that was considered not skillful with the ball that time, could do what most strikers now can't do. How do you expect a striker whose legs are not straight to do most of what Drogba did in that video? I am not sure Haaland and Nunez can do them too.

I think we’ve all agreed that most teams have moved away from using strikers in the mound of dem Drogba and co in the modern world .

That is what explains why people like Diaz a winger is playing as the main strike threat for his team . Teams like Madrid have won champions league in recent times without having a striker in the mould of Drogba which further proves that the game is evolving beyond having a top 9 like that .

I rarely get malaria myself and think the whole AA and Malaria thing is a tad overhyped...maybe na way to console AS and SS peeps sha

😂😂

Ibime:
Environment is the biggest factor. I used to get malaria bad, maybe 3 times a year, cos I always living next to swamp and creeks. I stopped getting malaria when we moved upland into Ikwerre land.

That one sef Dey ! People living close to swampy area will definitely be prone to malaria whether AA or AS

Shegzdave:
I didn’t even see this your post before my reply to him on Isak

Isak is a good striker who posses skills and scores beautiful goals, might not know of other strikers

Abi . None of the skills shown in the video are things Isak cannot do and also use goals to back it up .

Even Luiz Diaz get skills pass all the skills shown in the video sef

Benin Republic is just exploiting us,reason being that the goods isn't staying in their country but just passing through. They are impediment to the goal of Afcta and ecowas trade liberation scheme and ecowas itself. The institution should look into their matter. Do you know i pay more to Benin customs 🇧🇯 that this goods is passing through than Nigeria the final destination of this goods?

If the useless custom don't see anything tangible in your boot,they can call ordinary bobo as in interdit/contraband.

They require you do duty for goods transiting through their country whiles Countries like Ghana and Togo just give you transit permit for goods passing through them. They seal your boots so you don't have to drop them off in their country

Some of the inflation on items in Nigeria and across the sub region is caused by this useless country. Imagine paying close to 50m to clear your 32 tyre trailer of creams to just pass through Benin 🇧🇯 to Nigeria? Na person way never deal with Benin custom dey criticise Nigeria customs.


There is this axle loading on their road that when you excess just one tone,you go and pay almost 150k and we have trailers that can excess 40tones,do the calculations. Add all this to the custom duties and see why goods are generally expensive across the sub region. The annoying part is that foreign buses filled with passengers are still asked to pass through this axle and it's in two different players under 40km aparts.


I just hope and pray that some of these abnormalities gets to the public eye.

I believe that’s because Benin is a small poor country that serves as entrepôt i. e they serve as a port country through which other countries import and export goods .

I guess they are exploiting all the benefits of being an entrepôt to their advantage to generate income for their country .

The alternative might be for u to import those goods directly from Europe to wherever u want to market/sell them. I’m guessing that might be too expensive and that’s the only reason why the Benin route is still functioning

When we say quality of ball and strikers have dipped. Watch this clip of Drogba, this is a player commonly misidentified at the time as a brute and bruiser and show me the strikers today that possess this skill.

You can't show me any team with strikers that can do this now

There are enough team strikers that can do this and currently doing it sef.

Isak of Newcastle is skillful and also a very good striker in his own right. Luiz Diaz of Loserpool is quite skillful and scores beautiful goals. Watkins is equally doing same in Aston Villa colours.

Maybe there's a dearth of quality strikers in recent times , but it doesn't mean there are no good strikers out there scoring more the so called past quality strikers sef

Lies, no pills or drip

I'm also AA and I don't get malaria like other AA people.

I also don't get bit by mosquitoes; maybe because I'm hairy on my legs and arms sha.

popizaino:
Issues with Douanne/customs are always easy and straight forward like that, but i might be considering the option next time. There is an ecowas trade liberation scheme that allows members to move goods across member countries,but this godforsaken country called Benin Republic 🇧🇯 will always tell you this and that is contraband and is not meant to pass through their country. Imagine saying detol,vegetable oil is contraband. The annoying part is that this goods are not even going into their country but passing through.

I believe u can read and write French. If yes, then maybe u should take ur time and reserach on their web space the list of their contraband goods. If they have a Customs website, u should be able to see a full list of those items.

When u have a full list of those items and u are convinced none of the contraband is included in the goods u are moving, then u can have a case against their customs. That's the only time u can be sure they are trying to exploit u and not following any rules

Fkforyou:
I really want us to win todays game.

My concern is the set up of the front three.

I expect
Jesus on RW.
Kai on CF
Martinelli on LW.

Trosaard can come from the bench. He has been underwhelming this season.

And why the Bleep did our front 3 stop rotating? That would have been nice to see.

Trossard has been really disappointing this season. He just keeps making Martinelli enjoy uninterrupted play.

Don't be surprised if u see Arteta fielding Sterling today because Arteta knows how to fall hand sometimes

https://sicklecellanemianews.com/columns/want-have-children-without-sickle-cell-think-through-options/



my sis friend and her bf broke up years ago because they were both AS. then they figured it could work . they are married today and as far as i can tell, their kids are alright.

A friend of mine who is AS told me about this. At a time he was dating a lady that was AS and he is also AS.

He was willing to marry her and go through this process to determine the genotype of their offspring before birthing them. He said the only issue is that terminating a potential SS embryo may be much emotional challenge for the woman.

Fortunately or unfortunately for him, the girl's father said he won't allow his daughter marry a Christian(The girl's family are muslims while my friend's family are Christian). So they both went their separate ways and he didn't have to worry about AS/AS genotype wahala again.

The guy should not let yansh dictate his life for him o. To raise a sickle cell child no easy.

Most people that don't have anybody in close contact with them that has raised a child with sickle cell will not really understand how stressful and frustrating it can be.

Even when they survive till adulthood and get married, their spouses always get frustrated when they start having recuring crisis.

iamoyindamola:
But what happens when someone with AS marry those abroad
Will the offspring not have S in the genotype or their genotype is stronger than ours

I honestly don't know. I guess it's dem Afrodoc that can enlighten us on that.

GloriousGbola:
basically endemic to west africa

SS kids in yoruba culture used to be called abiku and attacked were thought to be their friends in the spirit world calling them to play

Ignorance has really affected people in the past sha concerning that Abiku stuff. They go as far as giving those kids special names like Durojaiye, Durosinmi, Kokumo, etc all in the hope that the names would make them stay alive.

Chai!

Something that common knowledge about Genotype would've solved. And a whole lot of Herbalists cashed out with the Abiku myth back then

iamoyindamola:
We are saying the same thing
We also know the daughter is wrong to have a boyfriend, the man is only protecting her by punishing and embarrassing the 2 parties involved

He can embarrass the boy by shouting on his head, by reporting him to his parents or going to report him in their school. Slapping him is taking it too far

iamoyindamola:
This is the first time I am hearing only black have AS

I also heard about it last year. I was surprised just like when I heard it; In fact I didn't believe and had to google search to confirm it.

mostob:
Possibly a strong lineup. Timber will be back at RB so Partey should be back in midfield. Odegaard should have recovered by now. He looked sharp in training. The front three picks itself with Kai and Sterling likely back on the bench.

Newcastle are missing Bruno and Schar so that should weaken them small (winks). Bruno has missed 7 games since he joined Newcastle, and Newcastle has won none of these games.

Na Isak and Joelington dey worry me pass. they are bunch of 'touts' truly

If we have a fully fit team, Partey back to the middle, Odegaard back to his optimal best and our CB's standing gallant I don't see Joelington or Isak causing us much trouble. I believe Timber will handle Hall well and prevent him from playing high crosses to Isak. They should also be wary of Gordon cutting inside to place shots at our goal.

Once we block supply line to their players upfront, we will be able to lay siege on their half and then restrict them to ocassional counters which Saliba will always be their to use his big body frame to contest with Isak .

iamoyindamola:
lol
So he went there dressing like he want to ask for the daughter hands in marriage abi
If the man lured him he won’t go with cap and be sagging he wanted to impress the girl

Nobody really knows what led to the boy appearing at their doorstep.

Most teens would not go to their gf’s house with the father and mother around . It’s weird .

iamoyindamola:
You are exaggerating this thing😂😂😂

I’m telling u how irrational some people can be .

Let me tell u something that happened in my area when I was much younger .

Back then we had people who usually rent out bicycle for N5, N10 , etc depending on the minutes u will be riding the bicycle . One bros Tope had like 8 bicycles he usually rents out to kids in our area .

One of our neighbor kids; Tunji rented for 20 mins at the cost of N10 but somehow he didn’t return with the bike until almost 2 hours . Bros Tope knowing how recalcitrant Tunji can be asked him to either pay for the 2 hours ride or he will have to seize his shoes . Eventually he seized his shoes .


When Tunji got home he told his dad what happened and the next thing his dad took Koboko to bros Tope house to beat him up. The dad slapped Bro Tope and whipped him koboko for daring to punish his son. It nearly turned into a serious issue because Bros Tope’s dad got there and met Tunji’s dad beating his son for disciplining Tunji.

We all know Tunji was wrong but his dad was willing to fight anybody because his son’s ego was bruised . That is how irrational some parents can be .

Imagine if it was Tunji the man in the video slapped ; Don’t u think his father will fight the girl’s father physically ?

At times it’s just best u avoid unnecessary

iamoyindamola:
What quarrel, in fact I will do more so that he can bring his parents to come and explain why their son is running after girls instead of education
See his dressing you will know he’s young pablo richie 😂😂

They are both minors . U as an adult cannot be beating someone else’s son because he toasts ur daughter . He’s not doing anything teenagers don’t do .

It’s normal for teenagers to toast each other . Provided u didn’t catch them on top each other having sexx, u should either warn him to stay far away from ur daughter or report him to his parents .

Slapping him as an adult is wrong . How will u feel if he tells his father a wrong story and that one comes with cutlass to cut off ur head ?

iamoyindamola:
If he give the daughter belle tomorrow he still doesn’t have right abi, the audacity for the boy to go the girl house sef
No matter how irrational the boy is he can’t come back with cutlass or gun
Maybe if they meet on the road

Nowhere in the video did they say he went to the girl’s house voluntarily . Do u know if it was the man that lured him to the house ?

seankafor:
probably the girl

If he is the girl's father, I don't think he should be slapping the boy o. He can warn him or report him to his parents, but he shouldn't be assaulting someone else's child. Those kind thing dey cause serious quarrel amongst adults

iamoyindamola:
Which ever
I like him, this generation with obsession for quick money and relationship
The other person should go and report to his/her parents na

Well, if the the man is the boy's father he is within his rights to reprimand his son and discipline him for chasing girls at a tender age.

However, if the man is the girl's father i believe he shouldn't be slapping the boy. He can warn him and even promise to report him to his parents for chasing after his daughter, but he shouldn't be slapping the boy at all. What if the boy's father is an irrational person and comes back with cutlass or a gun for daring to slap his son?

Is this right or wrong?

I no think the slapping and threat will stop shit shaa

Who is the man? Is he the father of the boy or the girl?

I really hope we will field a very strong team today and not a weak team that will get bullied by the touts Newcastle parade as players.

obainojazz:
2.3billion views will earn you between 3mill to 7mill dollars… That’s minus Facebook, instagram, endorsements and ads.

Is the 2.3 billion views and $3m income an all time figure since he started the skit making ?

afrodoc2:
Lasisi and Josh2funny are local compared to Mark Angel. The first time i heard about Mark Angel was about a decade ago and the first 2-3 people that old me about him were not even Nigerians. I think one was from another African country (maybe Zimbabwe or Cameroon) and the others were Sri Lankan and Indian.

The guy is not funny at all in my opinion but e don get massive global fan base while most of our other skit guys were not even in the business.

Mark Angel has 2.3 billion views on YouTube. Lasisi has 49 million and Josh2funny 103 million.

I’m not disputing the fact that he may have a head start over some of his peers as far as monetizing his social media accounts are concerned , what I find hard to believe is the fact that he has as much as $3.7m stashed somewhere which is proceeds from his skit making business .

It’s not like he makes all that money and doesn’t even spend 1 cent out of it on running costs and other expenses .

The guy is obviously lying with that amount he mentioned ; maybe to gain sympathy or to ward off people that are looking up to him for financial assistance .

By the way, whatever he was earning from him monetizing his social media accounts ; those Lasisi and co would’ve made same in adverts and endorsement money since his own comedy started getting stale years ago.

Ballzproblem2:
ads+subscription+endorsement deals ,is possible,mark didn't start today.and if consider the fact he had most of his income in dollars before naiara devaluation,is possible.

Lolz .

Which endorsement deal does he have in USD ? Which ad does he do in USD?

So all the money he’s been making he doesn’t spend out of it at all? He doesn’t pay house rent or didn’t buy a house ? He doesn’t fuel his car ? He doesn’t have family members , friends and associates he spends his income on?

Ballzproblem2:
is possible o ,maybe en do see habby and Jeffrey Benson lifestyle,greed takeover .

If he has 6 billion as savings , how much gan gan come be his income ?

wman:
I agree with you. Nigerians exaggerate too much. They call humongous fictitious figures, numbers and stats. And they know they have an audience that can't reason well to see through their lies.

You are right .

They just throw around figures knowing fully well that they will have enough people believing them even without showing any workings .

If Mark Angel has as much as 6 billion naira to throw around on forex , I wonder how much dem Lasisi, Josh2funny and co would now be worth . Maybe 100 billion naira sef . 😂
