BlueRayDick who would you say was the best real madrid player in 2022?

Just now now u don give me 4 mentions on top 2022 champions wey u urself pick ?

I have only given a snippet of just 3 matches and u are already feeling jittery. The debate is ur top 3 players for the 2022 champions league season as per performance on the pitch , it's either u wait for me to post what sqwaka rate throes players per match or u post it urself . No dey ask me JAMB question after u don consent to me bringing facts

liveLongNprospa:
I am not sliding Kroos Bros.
The undisputed best player for real madrid was Courtios. His performance in the UCL final cemented his place.
Every other position is up for grabs between benzema, vini, Kroos, casemiro.
I have given you bonus mentions of cama, rodrygo and fede

I have already checked the final vs Loserpool and two legged semi final vs city of that 2022 on sqwaka . Guess what ?

Kroos is not in the top 3 best performing Madrid players on the pitch of any of those most important matches .

Just wait make I dey on top system, I will open ur yansh outside that u no even sabi the Madrid wey u dey watch every week.

liveLongNprospa:
Name the top performers for Germany in that 2014 world cup.

You don't watch Madrid games bro, so I nor fit indulge you. Because you go run go look awards.

2022 the very top performer was Courtios. Then we have 3 spots you can share between Kroos, benzema, vini, modric and casemiro. Bonus mention goes to Camavinga, rodrygo and fede.

But the number 1 performer was Courtios

Lmao

Look at u sliding in Kroos like nobody will notice.

Just wait lemme get on system . I will bring link to player ratings for each of their games from group stage to final . I would like to see u wriggle out when the fact faces u in the face that Kroos is not 1-3

liveLongNprospa:
I'm sorry who was our 3 best players when we won the UCL in 2022?
Who was German's top 3 best player during the 2014 world cup?
Who was our top 3 best player when we won la liga in 2019?
Who was our top 3 best player when we won la liga, UCL, super copa and cwc in 2022?

How well do you watch our games?
If I ask you yesterday who were the top 3 best players against girona, who would you mention?

I didn't watch Madrid vs Girona yesterday so I'm in no position to judge the highest performers in the game.

Shebi u are a Madrid fan , oya name the top 3 performers in the Madrid side of 2022, I want to check something .

The fact that u think Kroos was one of the top 3 performers for Germany in the 2014 World Cup shows u no know ball as much as u think u do.

PS : I am willing to bring player ratings for each games in each of the two competitions aforementioned.

That's why you mind who you compare players with
No matter how good Neymar is when you try to bring him and compare to Messi you will meet with ridicule
No matter how much your Range Rover dey shack you, don't bring it to a Rolls Royce
Whoever brought Kroos into a Xavi comparison obviously didn't mean well for him. He for let Kroos dey him dey. And leave Xavi alone

Kroos wey never touch Modric you dey bring Xavi

Some players are untouchables and Xavi might just be one of them.

While Xavi was the core and the engine of the finest and probably greatest football side that was ever assembled Kroos was another member of the team

When you mention that Barcelona side, after Messi next is Xavi,
That Spain side that won 3 tpurnaments in a row between 2008 and 2012, Xavi was the best player.
there is no winning side Kroos was part of that he will be among the top 3 most important probably will struggle to make top 5.
Or tell me which of the teams Kroos won with will the most biased Kroos fan name him any side where he was the best player and they won?

That three peat Madrid Ronaldo Marcelo Modric Ramos Casemiro were more important, in 2013 Bayern Neuer Lahm.Boateng Schweinsteiger Alaba Robben Muller Ribery were all more important
Actually Kroos getting injured was a blessing which enabled Bayern to adopt a more counter attacking approach from the quarter finals and win the trophy

The German team that won too, Neuer Lahm Boateng Schweinsteiger Muller were more important

By the time the core of that German team retired and it was Kroos turn to lead them it was back to back embarrassment

While Xavis career wasn't entirely great all through especially younger Kroos too had patches. He was loaned out to Leverkusen to get game time when he was young

Lesson of this is if you don't want some dragging of your fave don't enter the rings with the gods

Don't let the case of Kroos be like the Nwanza bird who ate belleful and challenged his Chi to a fight

In modern day CM, Xavi is the Chi to Kroos

When you measure greatness most are more concerned about your highs and peaks not your valleys and lows. Albert Einstein is considered the greatest scientist because of his peak not that he was considered a poor student in primary school

Mohamed Alli had lows when he lost bouts but he is still considered the heavyweight GOAT because his highs

Gbam 💯

liveLongNprospa:
What is your expectation of Toni Kroos if you have him in your team?
If you are using fifa awards for Kroos then I will not argue with you because Kroos in the last couple of years doesn't even get featured on fifa because he has called them out.
Everybody knows this but it seems I will have to educate you.

See this one o; he's looking for escape route after comparing legend to regulars. So what happened to the years before he called FIFA out ?

We are still waiting for u to point out one single tournament triumph Kroos' teams had and Kroos was one of their best 3 players . We Dey wait because u need to explain to us how a player who u claim to be so good on the world scene would not even be one of his own team's top 3 players . Make it make sense na.

How can the madrid midfielder with highest chances created not be important nau?
Which kind beer parlor talk be this 😂

Na anecdotal evidences like " highest chances created " we go chop ? Did he create the most assists in a World Cup winning team in Germany and Champions league winning team in Madrid ?

Na him be Ororo wey dey score the goals ? Na him be Ramos ?

All this ur chances created superstory, I believe none moved Ballon D'or and FIFA to place him above Kroos at any point in their respective careers. For ur information Xavi made Ballon D'or 3rd place 3 times in his career and na him gamesmanship place him there.

Like I said earlier , I just like to create argument out of thin air for fun. Xavi and Kroos were never close .

liveLongNprospa:
Lmaooo which madrid fan nau.
You think say we dey 2014?

Go ask on twitter if argument nor go begin.
It's the same way madrid fans will tell you modric is better than iniesta.

Somebody up there has told u that the champions league winning streak of Madrid ; Kroos was not among the top 3 most important players for Madrid. As a Madrid fan u should know that is a fact !

Also, the 2014 World Cup triumph of Germany Kroos was not among the best 3 German players in that team.

That can never be Xavi either in Spain or Barca . Xavi is who everybody that watched him saw him to be. No amount of revisionism can suddenly make Kroos better than him. Na only for ur mind and few misguided Madrid fans Kroos better than Xavi

Emaprince:
Which kind argument be this? Kroos is a nobody in the world of football.

He is just decent. Nothing else. I have never seen anything special about him. Xavi is a controller. Half turns everywhere, while kroos is still turning like trailer. He cant even wriggle his way out of tight situations.

Prospa practically creates arguments out of thin air . That's the only explanation for comparing Xavi with Kroos . Even Madrid fans know Xavi is a midfield maestro through and through

Emaprince:

He has only two kids?

He has 4 kids

BlueRayDick. You see what I feared the last time passengers of GIG and ABC Transport comp was kidnapped?

Passengers in a GUO bus just got kidnapped and the driver shot dead.

https://www.nairaland.com/7996577/guo-motor-attacked-passengers-kidnapped

And so it begins! U will be surprised that people will still come here and ask u if kidnapping of passengers started under Tinubu 🤷‍♂️.

This is why I have shunned road travel outside Lagos and ogun state for a long while.

When I see people travel on long distance via road I just marvel at how they do it with all the insecurity in this country

Sportsweb:
Very simple.

I know all fingers are not equal. All those things they listed there are luxuries. I know how I was raised according to the size of our coats. 600k is more than enough abeg,infact it's too big for simple family man way no send all those luxuries.

What's data for family, DStv sub and all those stuffs am seeing on the list.

My aunt and her husband combine bring in about 300k monthly, they still live in comfortable flat and also enjoy life while training their kids. They plan themselves and cut their Fine Coat according to their size jare

Mention specific items on the list aside DSTV that is a luxury for a middle class family.

For Ur information, family data is the same thing as the data u and Ur spouse use for one whole month on Ur iPhone or laptop or smart TV.

Ur aunty & husband combined income of 300k is prior to this current subsidy removal and floating of naira . No? Have u asked her for money the way u normally ask her before now? What was her response? Did she give u the same amount she usually give u?

The discussion is not about the fact that people earning below 600k today will die of hunger ; the discussion is centered on the fact that if u earn 600k or below before Tinubu's subsidy removal and floating of dollar ; u will struggle to adjust ur spending pattern without groaning.

Na from there different people just dey pick their own narrative dey run with am.

I had oneteacher like that too. I for cast am that year but she was a fresh graduate who got Lagos state government teaching job and lives very close to my house while I was in SS 1.

So you think subsidy grew from 600m to 2bn in 12months by APC coming up with mumbo jumbo?



So if someone present that chart to you of subsidy growing by 300% in 12months you will say it's APC mumbo jumbo

Whatever makes u sleep well at night! If u like, quote just one word out of 1000 words in a single post.

The people that don't have an agenda to defend APC at all cost will read the full post and understand the context of the part of the part of the post u quoted in isolation.

GloriousGbola:
In 2012,nigeria was earning more than today.

There is a lot of revisionism about the subsidy removal
1) from the chart the subsidy grew by 400% from 2010 to 2011.
2) i remember that at the time moman wrote an open letter complaining about the proliferation of brief case companies that were making subsidy claims.

Simply put under gejs admin the subsidy became a free for all where connected people would supply product on paper and get paid.

When it got out of control, rather than initiate punitve measures gej opted for the lazy way out by removing the subsidy without notice. I remeber it as it was on January 1. You may remember as well because Nigerians who traveled for Xmas were stranded. It was a complete mess and an own goal.

What should have happened is someone should have accounted for a 1.5 trillion increase in a subsidy. Instead gej opted to sweep it under the carpet and pass the fallout to Nigerians without any warning.

Tinubu removed subsidy while I was watching his inauguration, before his inauguration speech finished I drove out to look for fuel and all filling station ahd already adjusted their pump & even locked their gates. Is that not worse than removing subsidy during Xmas break?

Have the brief case companies been identified and prosecuted under APC government since 201t when they took over? How many people do u know that have been jailed by APC Govt in the past 9 years for being responsible for.subajdy scam?

It's now looking clear now that APC just came up with a lot of mumbo jumbo just to discredit Jonathan's Govt only for them to gain control and plunge Nigeria further down the abyss of hardship.

Griffon:
There was no analysis for Tinubu to make. He was only copying his opponents’ strong points.

It’s akin to copying an answer in an exam hall, without showing full working. If investigator asks how you arrived at your answer, you go explain tire.

Short and simple!

His supporters would try to spin it, but it is what it is!

GloriousGbola:
We have had the discussion on subsidy over and over.

From 2016 nnpc has been the sole supplier of petrol in Nigeria. The fg stopped the subsidy in 2015 when Saudi crashed the price of oil to kill the US fracking industry. Price of petrol was 100 per litre or thereabouts at the time.

It was a peculiarity, low oil price, low revenue, low petrol price. As oil prices rose, revenue rose and petrol prices rose as well. This is actually when in hindsight Buhari should have bit the bullet and not returned us to subsidy via undercoverry. The pain of subsidy removal would have been behind us and we would have transitioned.

But it is what it is.

So Buhari should've proceeded with subsidy removal irrespective of 2hat anybody says but Jonathan in 2012 shouldn't? Why?

GloriousGbola:
The fg was owing nnpc 2.3 trillion naira in subsidy payments . Nnpc had stopped remitting to the federation account because of this. So what do you think would ultimately have happened if the fg had not removed the subsidy. All Buhari ultimately did was delay the inevitable till after his exit. Which is actually a ceo business strategy. Let the next guy clean up the mess. I will be long gone and it will be someone else's problem

I thought subsidy probe has been on since God knows when. Does Buhari's job in the past 8 years not involve probing NNPC and outstanding sunsidy payments?

Nigeria is a company that has been under the same management for the past 9 years. No?

If a Buhari that was the greatest beneficiary of the politically motivated 2012 subsidy removal protest refused to remove subsidy for 8 years of studying the polity that should tell u a lot.

It will not hurry anybody to admit they gaffed ing with Tinubu hoping the abrupt removal of fuel subsidy will spell this much room for the general populace.

Tinubu is the president today, his actions and inactions have thrown the people who voted and those who didn't vote him into serious hardship. If anything, na how to bring the people out of the abyss he threw the people into supposed be person concern. No be say na gaslighting wey no change status quo

Taguchi:
It is quite unfortunate that President Tinubu is defining an era of hardship just like Buhari before him

During PMB' era time I dey hear things like "for this Buhari economy" now Tinubu don get him own"economy" and it's significantly worse in almost all ramifications.

Quite unfortunate really.

Na within 8 months Tinubu get him own economy. Even his supporters both in the west and north are turning their back on him

This guy has never been featured by any top artist in Nigeria yet he is getting gigs in London.

He featured Olamide for his zazu single. Nonetheless he's one really lucky chap. The fact that he's rough outward look did not even deter someone like skepta from giving him gigs.

They are finding their voice now, be like the shege no spear even the elite...

https://www.nairaland.com/7996171/tinubus-abrupt-subsidy-removal-caused

The fact that people spent days here defending the abrupt subsidy removal will always amuse me. They even praised him as being bold and courageous to have done what Buhari could not do.

Nowadays sef I no dey see anybody dey type " akànbi Ọmọ olodo idẹ" on whatsapp status again in praise of Tinubu. I come dey wonder if the odò idẹ Don go missing àbí e Don spoil 🤷‍♂️
