Dogalmighty17: I bet you, the owner of the shop has no insurance for those goods. If the owner of the shop gets loans from commercial banks to facilitate his business, they would've mandated him to get insurance . When you run a business like that and you get loan facilities from bank to import goods and facilitate sale of goods in the local market, the bank will mandate you to insure your warehouse and the goods in it to cover their exposure and yours. It's compulsory. |

johnjunior39: Kai is worse, you literally have to be looking for him in every game, he get a chance and he make nonsense out of it. I don't think Kai is worse, rather I think both Gyokeres and Havertz are inconsistent as far as the CF role is concerned at Arsenal. The last Champions league game vs Lille, Gyokeres started the game and didn't do anything till Havertz came on in the second half, got an assist and we went on to win the game. Gyokeres also started the game vs Napoli and didn't do much to help us win. I was expecting Gyokeres will start yesterday like most fans, but I guess Arteta thought why start Gyokeres who hasn't justified his inclusion in the last 2 champions league matches? Areta started Havertz and that one sef chose yesterday to drop a stinker performance till Gyokeres came on to provide Rice's assist. Both Gyokeres and Havertz are not consistent upfront and that's where the issue lies. I guess the only reason Arteta starts Havertz most times is because when he plays, he kinda makes our frontline fluid when compared to Gyokeres. But the crux of the matter is both players are inconsistent when it comes to their primary duty of being in that CF role to convert chances. |

popizaino: People should come and explain to me how Arteta's ball is negative or boring. People find it hard to deal with the fact that Arteta adjust his team’s playing style to match his opponent’s tactics . From the Bayern game yesternight it was obvious Arsenal had more possession , had the same number of shots on target and had answer to every question Bayern asked with their brand of football . People talking about boring Arsenal are only mad because Arteta doesn’t roll over and allow teams get the better of Arsenal . When teams in the EPL play low block on us , we will roll in the potopoto with them , score one goal and lock up . They will cry and cry but we will take the 3 points . When teams in the UCL play free and expansive football , we will follow them play and get the result . We have players well drilled to play different pattern of football under this Arteta management . Who no go no know 😎 |

OkpaNsukkaisBae: 2015 was MSN prime.
The argument is prime MSN 🆚 prime PSG. Thank you 🙏 Everybody that has been arguing against Prime MSN being capable of defeating this current PSG team have been premising their arguments on when MSN was not at their peak . The argument is Prime MSN that blew everybody away in 2015 will defeat this current PSG team based on the quality and antecedents of that team . Every other argument they’ve been smuggling in to undermine that prime MSN team . |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by BlueRayDick: 7:06pm On Oct 21 |
Roland17: If we go by the record and antecedents of MSN/ Barcelona, they are not beating this PSG side in Paris, even their home game in Spain will be a toss up.
Despite their individual brilliance, they couldn't beat anyone away from home in the knockout rounds. In sharp contrast, this PSG side will beat anyone at home, away or even in a farmland.
MSN/ Barcelona 2014/2015 - Won the UCL 2015/ 2016 - Lost aggregate 3-2 to Atletico Madrid in the QF (Won 2-1 at home and lost 2-0 away) 2016/2017 - Lost 3-0 aggregate to Juventus in the QF ( Lost 3-0 away and played out a 0-0 at home) Aston Villa of all teams beat this same PSG in 2025 and it was in the knockout stages . I think people are overly hyping this PSG team because of the general drop in quality of teams/players across Europe in recent times . The MSN team I watched back then will beat this current PSG team . |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by BlueRayDick: 6:31pm On Oct 21 |
Sportsweb: MSN underachieved as far as UCL is concern. This current PSG is ahead and ar now chasing Zidane Madrid.
MSN that were getting eliminated in QFs. The initial argument is whether the MSN team can defeat the current PSG team or not . Nobody argued whether MSN underachieved or not . Na people wey dey use recency bias and anti-Barca mind reason the matter smuggle Zidane’s Madrid , number of champions league trophies , etc into the matter just to make it seem like prime MSN won’t blow this current PSG team away . |

raumdeuter: People are forgetting that prime MSN need 2 people to mark Messi and Neymar
Messi vs Mendes and Vitinha Neymar vs Hakimi and Fabian Ruiz
While Suarez is battering Marquinhos and Pacho
If they do that successfully, there are less bodies to cover Rakitic, Iniesta etc
I give prime MSN unless this PSG is ready to bunker and counter Most people are using their dislike for Barca and recency bias to rate prime MSN less. MSN would really run this PSG team ragged. Messi would just be gliding past these PSG guys like its no man's business. Suarez wey dey ntumeg CBs and wire shot almost immediately into back of the net. Like people are undermining the quality in that MSN team. PSG midfield fit no see ball play sef cos all those Vitinha, Neves, Hernandez & co will be spending most of the game trying to Man-Mark Messi which they will even fail at. |

Kimbeast: We are talking champions league performance not Copa del Rey or winning against Eibar/Levante. Winning the champions league back to back to back is far harder than winning the treble. I thought we were talking about a great team that was unplayable in all competitions in their prime |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by BlueRayDick: 3:13pm On Oct 21 |
Kimbeast: Enrique Psg has more credit in the bank that's why I lean towards them. They have won the champions league back to back dominating so many big teams. We saw MSN and Barcelona with the same quality of players in others seasons flop against weaker teams like Juventus, Psg and Madrid where they could hardly score any goal. A better comparison would be bbc Zidane Madrid vs this Psg team. Dark magic vs unstoppable force. BBC did not win Treble, MSN won treble firing on all cylinders. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by BlueRayDick: 3:10pm On Oct 21 |
Ibime: Maresca will not play that open formation with Cherki and Enzo in midfield during knockout stage.
He is new to his team and can afford to test whether his team will dominate the ball or capitulate during group stage, knowing he will still qualify easily
Should they meet in knockout stage, expect an Anderson, Bouaddi and Enzo midfield. This trio in Midfield can obviously not best a midfield of Rakitic, Busquets and Iniesta that played the 2015 Champions league final. Now factor in a front 3 of Messi Suarez and Neymar. |
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by BlueRayDick: 2:30pm On Oct 21 |
Kimbeast: Unless Barca have Maresca as coach If not nothing. We watched the same MSN flop so many times In the champions league against Juventus and Madrid in the knockout stage, teams that are not as good as this Psg. In 4 of the knockout matches they only scored in 1. They scored 2 goals while conceding 6 in total. If they meet 10 times Psg will win at least 8. Maresca was beaten just last week by this same PSG because he doesn't have in the current city team the quality of players that populate Barca MSN team. In case you are getting it twisted, I am literally saying the Barca team of 2015 coached by Enrique will defeat 2025-2026 PSG team coached by Enrique. Why? The quality of players on that Barca team will get the job done anyday any time. E no pass like that. |

CrystalTiger: Some arguments are just recency bias.. We're not too old na to come dey act like MSN played centuries ago..
MSN go too chop that PSG defense.. He’s obviously trolling . You can see he didn’t argue that City dominated the same PSG in the second half just last week . Everyone who watched the match saw that City could’ve turned things around if they they were clinical . And this current city team no even use anything near Barca MSN level . As much as Pacho and Maquinous are very good CBs at the moment , it won’t take Prime Messi anything to run a tree-chopping dribble on them like he did Boateng in 2015. That prime MSN will rip through whatever roadblock Fabian Ruiz , Neves and Vitinha may think they can set up in Midfield when Barca has the ball . All this one that Doue and Kvara dey dribble everybody for wings , Alba and Alves would’ve frustrated their lives . |

swiz123: I strongly disagree. I think you are judging it from individuality rather than collectively. PSG presses like prime Liverpool and keeps possession close to prime Barca. This combo is very dangerous and can disgrace anyone.
Dissect how they play tactically and you will understand. They draw you to the side and then create a spare man in the middle who attacks immediately the ball gets to him (usually Dembele). Same player connects with on rushing wingers or full backs who have created an overload. I observe keenly and noticed that almost all their attacks ends in a shot.
That game won’t be about MSN but about how much legs can track PSG players. Those boys don’t get tired and are always running. We all watched PSG vs Man City just last week. If City were more clinical, they would've turned the game around in the second half. This same PSG with their pressing were dominated by City in the second half just last week. Now Imagine MSN Barca dominating this same PSG like city did last week. Do u think Neymar and Messi would be playing the ball into the stand like Semenyo and his fake left leg was doing ?  |

swiz123: Truth is, if MSN played this PSG team with Busquet in midfield, aggregate score might be 14:3 in favor of PSG.
If you want the ref to end match before final whistle, carry a lazy front 3 that likes to attack and play PSG. Barca's MSN will definitely defeat this PSG team. All those second half of PSG vs Man City that city was wasting chances upon chances, Barca's MSN would've turned things around by loading PSG with goals. MSN that overturned 4-0 first leg loss to 6-1 in the return leg. I strongly believe Barca MSN would get a very decent result against this PSG. All those Pacho and Maquinous forming best CB no concern Messi and his brethren, dem go put am for their body. |

Bluelines69: Kvicha out of the season, one of the few exciting players to watch He tore his ACL in yesterday's match, Dembele too is injured alongside Maquinous and they will be out for Weeks. If anybody can have a shot at beating them, now is a good time. It's just that I don't think they are facing any top team in the UCL anytime soon. |

PSG actually had 15 shots on target vs Barca. They missed 5 big chances and still scored 4 goals .
If Dembele was not out injured , Barca fit swallow reach 7 goals sef . That Ferran Torres just dey GBA |

spillo1: This is a long epistle with zero substance.
Taking care of your kids is the bare minimum. Providing food, accommodation and shelter is the bare minimum. You have listed a bunch of useless excuses. Nothing should stop you from building a connection and friendship with your kids, which unfortunately, most fathers don't even attempt to do. They practically know nothing about their children aside from the basics. Some father's return home and suddenly the house is like a graveyard. The kids are scared to even move around. Grateful for my two boys and what we have. I agree with the post , especially the bolded . It’s important that men in this generation don’t make the same mistake their own fathers make by thinking ‘once I provide food and shelter , pay school fees , etc , I have discharged my fatherly duties ‘. Fathers should try to be in their children’s life , build connection and let their kids be comfortable relating with them like their friends . All these goes a long way to shape what will become of their relationship when the child becomes an adult . Even if a man works 2 weeks on a rig and 2 weeks off to provide for his family , he should try and make sure the weeks off the kids feel his presence at home in a good way to avoid stories that touch in the future . |

Whats your opinion about this series Lioness
I dont want to invest time into boring series
I am on like episode 5 and they have started making lesbian moves It’s a good series overall . You know your Yankee people have normalized infusing rainbow 🌈 theme into almost every series they release now , so that one is inevitable . The rainbow 🌈 activities in Lioness is kinda minimal , it didn’t override the storyline like they do in other series . |
