This guy na tormentor of big terms in England that year.....The Yak! He's got a beautiful family

Na wa ó. Madam is 40 and Yak's wikipedia page says he's 38

It gets even worse reading through other pages of the handbook.

Imagine the government advising u not to disclose Ur place of work (NYSC), instead they are advising u tell them about Ur friend's and families who should negotiate for Ur release.

So the government is comfortable using corpers( full graduate) for cheap labour, pay 33k as their salary, no health insurance in place and then shifts the responsibility of their safety to their friends and families?

No government has been more irresponsible than this present government. The government can't even help itself but show its dictatorial side by ordering any kidnapped corper ro not speak with the press even after their parents must have sold their assets to secure their release.

If u voted this Govt on second term, u need to be prayerful because normally thunder supposed fire u.

Amoto94 have u seen this?

The government is literally saying anybody kidnapped is on his or her own.

Dem say if dem kidnap u no call dem o, call Ur family and friends to negotiate and pay ransom ASAP. While that is going on, form personal relationship with Ur captors, keep fit with mental exercise and don't even think of escaping.

When u are finally released, don't embarrass the government by going to media o, just share Ur experience with Ur family and friends and move in with Ur life as if nothing happened.

Please where can one get fresh beetroot in Lagos?

Is there any other name?


Thank you in advance

Those northerners who sell fruits in their wheelbartowa stationed at strategic bus stops/estate gates do sell beetroots.....In places like Ilupeju estate, u will ṣeré it almost everywhere. Also, I've seen it at the Fruit section of big supermarkets like SPAR and Shoprite.

Did anybody here watch the match live? I thought I was the only one who couldn't get any streaming link online until I saw fans complaining under the highlight video posted on Arsenal's IG's page.

How do we not get a match being played at Emirates transmitted live? How?

Abeg who get streaming link...seems hesgoal no carry the this Match

That is part ur doing in the lineup for 4ck sake?

Later if he gets injured in this match spy360 will say it's a dirty tackle that got him injured and not the coach that starts him in an inconsequential match

Amala and ewedu + offals x ponmo

Spy360:
I refer ESR on the LW too. But Saka playing 8 with Ødegaard won't bring the best in him. I will rather like to see him on the RW and Pepe as a support Striker since he likes to dribble. That will also get him closer to the box which is where we all want him to be.

............. Auba ....... Pepe..............
ESR............ Odegaard......... Saka
...................... Partey......................
Tierney. Gabriel.. White.... Tomi

With this formation we can get the best from both Saka and Pepe, also since Tomi can cover at CB, whenever Tierney pushes forward he will easily tuck in there and vice versa. With the acquisitions of White and Tomi, and the form of Pepe, this was what I expected Arteta to do. He should forget 'Xhaka must play' and do what's right for the team especially against weaker opposition that park the defense.

How does a RB cover-up for a LB that has gone upfield to attack ? Are suggesting Gabriel drifts to LB at that point and Tomiyasu covers CB along with White?

francisgodstime:
My brother exclude Chelsea from that ur any premier league ist 11

The only exceptional player in Chelsea Midfield is Kante. A fit Partey will walk into Chelsea midfield alongside Kante.

I know arsenal fans like to hype their own, but u guys need to pipe down on this Odegaard hype abeg! If we are to learn anything from history, we should remember Willian had 3 assists in his first game for arsenal and we all know it ended.


I'm not saying Odegaard will turn out to be another Willian, but all these comparison with Maddison's current form are unnecessary at this point in time . Not saying u shouldn’t Stan ur fave , but season still young o.

Let’s hope the team continues to play well and we can all discuss which Transfer window decision was right at the end of the season

Shior!

We all know the drones will be deployed, it will work for a month or two and afterwards iu won't see the drones in the sky and u wing get an explanation for it.....millions of naira budgeted for it will go down the drain and smuggling activities it was supposed to check will continue as usual.

Early this year there was a programme on Nigerian info radio that talked about problems faced in clearing cargo at the ports. In that programme the presenter shared facts that showed computerized scanners were acquired by the customs towards the end of janathan dispensation to scan containers.....these scanners while in operation made clearance of cargo at the port really fast because it scans cargo really fast...

However, because of selfishness of those in customs and the syndicate they have in ground for the normal physical offloading and unloading of containers before it's scanned physically ( for a fee obviously), they sabotaged this process and so we are back to the old system

In essence, this whole drone story na cruise.....things will still go back.to how it used to be after one or two months.

That's the Nigeria u live in

The way this guy takes this COVID-19 / vaccine matter, one would think he was elected solely on the caampaign promise of boxing COVID-19 to a corner.

Like somebody said last week, COVID-19 cannot leave Nigeria even if oyinbo find its cure; simply because our politicians won't just allow COVID-19 to leave......

nihilistjnr:
Is Mendy injured or what?

I remember he was involved in a collision with one Zenith player the other day, I thought it wasn't serious tho.

Ọbẹ̀ ata irú with obstacles

iamoyindamola:
You still haven't gotten the point
The keeper is calm even under pressure, if Leno was in goal yesterday we will concede especially from the passing from back.
Look at that pk shout and he knows when to play long ball instead of passing from back.
If Leno don't concede him head no they straight

The keeper u claimed is calm under pressure nearly caused a goal that same yesterday.....we have Providence to thank for the ball not bouncing in the wring direction after he hesitated and hit the ball agsint the oncoming burnley player. ( This is fact and not me making things up)

U don't know with certainty Leno would concede a goal yesterday........that's just sentiment and bias talking right there.

Like I already said earlier, the big tests will come soon. Once Ramsdale shows himself to be an equally good shot-stopper as a good ball distributor, then he has my blessings to.continue in goal for us to the betterment of the club.

AnfieldFan:
Let's do it this way, why does he deserve a red card?

The same reason people who inadvertently kick opposing players in their own box get penalty awarded against them and have cards shown at such players.

cococandy:
Descerado is not a guy pls. So you guys should chill mabinu.

Also I wasn’t trying to have a debate. I was trying to make conversation with her like we usually do on this thread. Make una no let the thing turn to four pages of back and forth.
Doo

Alright. I had no personally issues with her, I was just not cool with the way she kept on insisting the whole "local" tag is embarrassing us as a people.

It is all fine sha.

iamoyindamola:
No one is bringing any Leno v Martinez
We are just telling you what Leno keep doing that caused the team alot

Don't be deceived, the clean sheet u see Ramsdale enjoying now is as a result of combination of factors ; the defence stepping up, Partey in midfield and the fact that we are currently playing lowly rated teams.

The big test comes when we start playing average to above teams. Hopefully the defence and midfield will remain rock solid as they appear in the last two matches.

AnfieldFan:
Bro, take a moment,watch that again, if it was with malicious intent, surely he would have gotten a red and even a match ban...
Hell, even the Swansea players would get involved in a mini brawl but did any of that happen?
He went for the ball(freekick) and hit the Swansea guy who purposely kicked the ball away....

Those two players wearing white getting involved after the incident, are they not Swansea fans? Shey na until their fans and coaching crew join?

Elliot's leg was broken by that Leeds United player( I can't remember his name now) in a tackle that clearly had no malicious intent, but the Leeds player got a red card. Even when the red card was appealed, the ref's decision stayed.

Maybe because this Swansea guy didn't end up with a broken leg that's why it's easy for u to look u at it the way u are sha .

AnfieldFan:
He was aiming for d the ball...En no even notice the Swansea player...Make una d use una eye naaa

You will do well to use Ur own advice

descarado:
Don't know why this is being debated at all.
I eat salad made by things cultivated where I live
Should they start calling it local salad too? They call it salad. Prefixes used are the ingredients used to make such salad eg cucumber salad, You guys should stop embarrassing us with I know it all attitude. We show this thread to non Nigerians proudly.
Wonder why ofada stew is not called local stew or do you think its only in Nigeria u see ofada stew?

Here is not just avenue for posting food pictures but learning.

There are things you don't associate food with and it's local. Go and learn. You can never hear this from a chef. You may hear Nigerian stew, Nigerian jollof rice but local. Gosh, that's gross.

So please don't ever try to educate me on subject I know very well to stroke some people's ego.
Thank you.
Won't respond to this again as it's waste of my precious time.

Guy rest abeg!

People posting food here do not owe U any obligation to name their food after whatever u think makes u feel good in the presence of Ur "non Nigerian" friends.

First and foremost We are Nigerians posting on a Nigerian blog sharing whatever we prepare in our kitchen with our fellow Nigerians. Nigerians use words like "local rice" to let u know the rice they are referring to is the rice grown in Nigeria and not the imported Thai Parboiled that is common to us all; Nigerians say "native jollof rice" to make u know the jollof rice being referred to is one that has native ingridients like locust beans, dried fish, palm oil, scent leaf etc.

This in no way implies those words are derogatory and do not convey such meanings to the person being addressed. For example when u asked holycon what she posted and she said it's "local salad" almost all of us understood what she meant and didn't see any attempt at belittling our own delicacies in her post. (She even added a laughing emoji in that post)....Nobody is embarrassing anybody by calling their food a name everyone can easily relate with.

You are the one who needs to drop this Ur newly found political correctness at the doorstep of this thread and pick it when u are done viewing/commenting on food posts.

iamoyindamola:
We have a game plan
Does Leno suit the plan?
No, cos he put his players under pressure and he also make mistake
That have been my argument when Martinez was sold

I'm not going back to Leno vs Martinez argument again. Let's hope Ramsdale is a good shot stopper as much as he's a good distributor of the ball (at least for the sake of our club) going forward.

Spy360:
I am referring to the particular match alone not generally as a goalkeeper.

As per the match, one thing we don't realise is that a goalkeeper that has the ability to effectively direct his defense line will face less shots, similar to how goalkeepers arrange their wall during a free kick. So in essence, facing much shots is a pointer that the guys in front of a GK aren't getting the proper directions they need.

Well, this excuse in bold was not made for Leno during Emery ball and under Ljunberg when he was facing gazillion of shots weekly ; we all agreed it was free entry and free exit going on in the midfield that allowed opposing team attackers always have access to goal.

I've never said Ramsdale is not a good keeper, neither did I say he was poor in yesterday's match. I credited those whom I see putting their body on the line all through the match to snuff burnley attack of and those guys are Gabriel, Tomiyasu, Partey and even Odegaard.

Like I said I will give him credit when I'm able to assess his all rounder goalkeeping prowess and not just ball distribution from the back alone.

For those who seem to forget how good Leno is, please watch this video and refresh Ur memory.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfi8wXx96w0

iamoyindamola just look at 3:26, 3:49, 4:29 and 5:10 in this video....u will understand what I told u earlier that Leno has pulled off that Ramsdale save today a lot of times in the past

Spy360:
Ramsdale bro

I already credited him for being aware in the aerial department.....but I've not seen him face the amount of shots Leno faced under Emeryball and even under Ljunberg and Arteta......

When he faces half of those shots and does really well then I will give him the credit for it. Don't forget this is the Ramsdale that's been in goal for 2 different relegated clubs.... I want to see him step up real big before I start giving him credit I may need to retrieve in the future.

iamoyindamola:
Don't worry you will soon

I will love to see that

Ibime:
Did you watch the video till the end?

That guy kicked the ball to prevent a quick freekick and ended up being kicked.

If u kick me like this I will make sure I break Ur leg before the match ends and I will honorably take the red card for that.

Ibime:
Should not even merit a yellow. Looks can be deceiving. You can see the guy was trying to take a freekick

Haba! If u no fear God, u no fear fenibeso?

How dem go hack person like that and u go talk say he's taking a freekick. Na until he commot his small intestine?

The ref gave a yellow for this.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CT-dPcYI9n3/?utm_medium=copy_link

What do u think about his decision?

iamoyindamola:
Ramsdale nko, give praise to him too
That cornet save was goal saving
See pashun he brought to the team whenever we score

I've seen Leno made much more superb goal-bound shots before..... I'm only impressed by his aerial comannd and nothing more.

He's not been rally exposed /tested like Leno has been.....When the time comes I will praise him having fully convinced me he's a better keeper.

Leno and Martinez are two keepers I've seen show themselves to be really good at pulling saves. When I see Ramsdale do that he will get my praise.

Big ups to Gabriel today, he was rock solid and frustrated the burnley attack at every turn. Himself, Tomiyasu and Partey secured the win for us.
