Gabriel Jesus ; Industry problem

I started the game from the first few seconds Iheanacho scored, but that’s not the point.

As of when I made that Ndidi comment, was Ndidi playing CB or DM?

I even went further by saying you should watch where he’s standing even you said he was playing CB, but... but...

Na wetin I wan tell u Unlimited22 don talk up there .

donstan18:
You said Ndidi is playing as a CB.

Even when I said you should watch him, that he’s in the middle, you insisted.

When did u start watching the match ?

Spy360:
Nawa for you o.

Against Villa you said he didn't do much to impress you because he kept it simple. Now that he wants to impress you you want him to still keep it simple

Your wife dey try abeg. She is wife of the year with a husband like you

You just like to quote person out of context sha . Against Villa I was on the thread running commentary as the match was ongoing , several times in the match Lokonga attempted contesting for Aaerial balls but los the duels. The moment he won one, I mentioned it here .

Away from that , When he had the ball he kept it simple and didn’t overdo things and we were grateful for that . He didn’t get into situations where he would be out-muscled and made to chase an attacker drawing him out of position .

Am I wrong to hope he will give a similar performance against a superior opponent in a high profile match ?

Expert17:
Started as CB and moved to midfield after conceding a PK.

I know , I’m watching the match . I responded to his post cos he’s alleging Leicester midfield is an express even with Ndidi playing in the middle .

Ndidi didn’t start in the middle , but only got moved to midfield in the die-minutes of the game when the game has already been lost and over with

Make dem just disband this Leicester team already . They’ve been terrible since last season .

donstan18:
What’s he doing in the middle then?

Just watch where he’s always standing.

Ndidi has been in CB for like 3 games running now . He’s not playing in midfield like u assumed

donstan18:
Leicester midfield na express.

Ndidi is overrated to be honest.

Ndidi is not playing in midfield but CB

iamoyindamola:
He just learnt that, I'm glad he's improving

I come dey wonder how we go play without Zinchenko, Odegaard , White and Ramsdale ……. Na to just expect the worse ni o

Jodera:
Omo, this is a very dope lineup.

I just hope Sambi would bring his very A game today as well as the rest

Me too. I just hope he keeps it simple like he did vs Villa and not get forced to commit errors when under pressure .

Confirmed line-up

iamoyindamola:
White, ramsdale,zinny, odegaard all starts

Na mind game Arteta dey play since jare . The only player that’s absent is Partey who is obviously injured .

This penalty awarded Brighton is something that should’ve been awarded to Saka in our game vs Aston Villa o…..stupid ref and VAR says no .

Dem supposed disband this Leicester team, na rubbish dem just dey play since last season

iamoyindamola:
They didn't touch or interfere with game play

But the ball was heading towards their direction. Remember that Everton vs Man utd match 2 seasons ago when the Everton player was on the floor in an offside position and the ball found its way into the back of the net ?

iamoyindamola:
How can var rule out such belter strike FFS
These guys are killing football
It's not suppose to be perfectly perfect

Those Brighton players in the initial freekock were offside na

iamoyindamola:
That's true but he lazily left his last leg on mendy

That’s cos he was drained of energy as at that time.

iamoyindamola:
Just saw the Westham goal
I blame Bowen he left his other leg on mendy when he could have jumped over

Prior to the incident Bowen was almost going to the ground, he stumbled and struggled to stay on his feet ….. I don’t know how the ref and VAR expected him to have gotten that energy to jump over the on-rushing Mendy higher than that .

VAR just favored Chelsea yesterday honestly .

Rice + pasta salad + fish

Amoto94:
Suddenly nobody is cursing Lord Lugard for the visa ban placed on Nigerians U-40 due to the activities of some criminals based in UAE.

Nobody blames Lugard for criminalities of Nigerians ; what people blame Lugard for is forcing a group of people who have no common history , heritage , culture and beliefs Into a union that has failed from the onset .

mostob:
Hopefully, ESR will be ready to go tomorrow. I kinda prefer him to Ode as he is more direct and doesn't dilly-dally on the ball like Ode.

With Jesus and Martinelli roaming anyhow, I believe he will have the freedom to make those late runs to the box.

With Zinky and Partey out, our attack and defence will need to step up tomorrow.

We should be expecting a red card and a Penalty tomorrow especially with a lot of controversies in today's EPL matches.

Unfortunately or fortunately Odegaard is a much better player than Smith-Rowe . Odegaard na baller where’re Smith-Rowe dey ; u need to watch him more . Smith-Rowe is a budding star no doubt , but any coach will start a fit Odegaard ahead of Smith-Rowe any day anytime

VAR sef don favor Chelsea today

Itsrm:
Yeah. Like the one he built with Tambuwal in 2019. See how well it turned out

I no understand this parable of the sower wey u type

Loserpool without ref help don drop point .

[color=royalblue]I watched a video of one Lagos politician commenting about PYO and BAT before the primaries.

He said while PYO is a presidential material, he cannot win BAT because people like BAT have been paying their dues for years to the grassroots and even other politicians before now. It would be difficult to turn their backs on him.

Atiku is not a small boy in politics. A woman appointed by BuuBuu said Atiku is her godfather. Who was Wike when Atiku was VP and running the show with OBJ as far back as 99 to 07

Suddenly, Wike don become don.

Wike cannot even influence votes from the entire SS. Only Rivers state and he's holding press conferences everywhere.

[/color]

This is the gospel truth ! Ibori wey steal our yam sef get mouth pass Wike for the entire South south in the scheme of things .

raumdeuter:
Na wetin papa take pass pikin be that.
Experienced politicians have formed alliances or helped fellow politicians in the past that they will cash in when in need it

Bagudu said it was Tinubu who gave him ACN ticket and financed him back in 2011. At a time Tinubu didn't even know his party would become national or he would have a realistic shot at presidency. Same thing for Fayemi and Amosun who stepped down for him

Real Politicians build alliances , not attacking every other politician anytime they have a chance to stand on a podium .

Itsrm:
You mean I'm overestimating a first time presidential aspirant able to pull that number of votes in an election featuring fellow Governors like Udom and Bala Mohammed? Seems to me like you're the one underestimating Wike.

All I’m saying is that Wike is a political neophyte not to have seen that Atiku-Tambuwal card playing . He was seeing everything in black and white while things are not like that in national politics .

Do u know how many times Atiku had moved against Obasanjo as his VP and Obasanjo survived ? Atiku was going to get Obasanjo impeached by the house of assembly and Obasanjo had to change the leadership of the house as often as possible ? Na people wey sabi game be that , not the loose mouthed Wike

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Somebody had to win the ticket for another person.

Tambuwal did not just decide to step down that evening. It was already part of the plan.

The same experience BAT had over PYO, is the same Wazirin had over Wike.

Might have clinched ko, Might have crashed ni [/color]

God bless u! There’s no way Wike would win that ticket when Atiku already knows he can buy the vote of his fellow northerner who could’ve acted as a spoiler for him.

People like Atiku may not be really intelligent like that , but they have think-tanks who would explore every avenue for him to win. While Wike is acting brash and talking big, Dem Atiku guys were busy forming alliances .

I’m sure Wike has learnt his lessons and will apply those lessons going forward when playing politics at the national level

larride:
If Tambuwal had not play the spoiler and conceding to Atiku, Wike might have clinched the ticket.

It was Tambuwal that won the ticket for Atiku.

Osinbajo also spent money, he just doesn't have the range or clout needed to win the primaries.

The Tambuwal card is what veterans like Atiku always have at their sleeves waiting to be played . Newbies like Wike would never see it coming and that was exactly what happened .

As for Osinbajo almost everyone who is politically conscious knows there’s no way Osinabjo will win a primary contested by Tinubu . Most people who were hoping for Osinabjo’s emergence as APC flag bearer were hoping he would be a consensus candidate . No serious person would think he would win in a ballot constested by Tinubu na. Everybody knows he can’t play the ball like Tinubu and his people na
