So Mbappe doesn't want to be the number 3 man. He want to be number 1.

Whatever project PSG are on, it will be a grave mistake to sell Mbappe.

Messi is just a shirt term fix. Neymar unserious. Mbappe should be the long term face of PSG. But it looks like he wants to leave.
You can't force an unhappy player to stay now. If Mbappe wants to leave despite the huge salary he gets then they should sell him. There's no sense in forcing him to stay gains his wish.

I don't see it as the team prioritizing an old man Messi ahead of him, rather I see the club making the best of selling an unhappy player. Something barca refused to do with messi last year and landed them in financial mess

That Amoto94 guy isn't a sincere person.

It was on this thread he said if any family member leaves Islam, he would cut ties with him/her.

You can only imagine what this kind of person will do to his son or daughter if he/she leaves Islam on reaching adulthood.


He's just a terrosist apologist that doesn't believe in people having religious freedom, as enshrined in the Constitution.

No Boko Haram member can ever be really deradicalized or rehabilitated so long they remain in Islam.
Truthfully I don't have an issue with him as far as the bold part of Ur statement is concerned ; if that's his religious believe it's his personal decision which I won't like to make my problem. We already agreed religion is the opium of the people, if that's how his opium works then good for him and those around him/share his sentiments.

As regards Ur statement concerning no Boko Haram sect member can be totally deradicalized, I share the same sentiment as u.

Some of these people Amoto94 referred to as children were actually born into this sect indoctrinated, grow up to love and cherish what the group stands for. For your information, Boko Haram started in 2002 ; that's 19 years ago! shocked. How do u deradicalize a child born into the sect between then and now?

Lemme share a short story about an experience with a Boko Haram survivor between 2014 and early 2015 when I was in the north west.

So as at that time Boko Haram only operated in 3 major states in the north east and Jonathan's Govt arranged for students whose parents had been killed by these terrorists, their houses burnt etc to have them transferred to unity schools.....The Govt was responsible for paying their fees, pocket money and clothing as well ( Jonathan wasn't really a total failure like most people would like to believe)

These students were brought in big luxurious buses and we were briefed to make them not feel different from other students. After they had settled in, one evening like them one of these new arrivals who is a Jss2 student beat up an SS2 student because he just can. If u say the mess he made of the SS2 student's face/chin, u will gasp in horror.

The next assembly day the JSS2 student was called up for punishment by the school authorities but if u see the defiance on his face while the punishment was being administered, u will know this guy's emotion has been taken away long time ago by the war trauma he's experienced in the northeast.

Now that's a boy who is not even a fully indoctrinated member of the sect o, imagine those who were born into the whole thing, haven't gone to school all his life and mostly higj6on drugs. It's really scary.

I just hope there's no sleeper cell in our military already and these "repentant insurgents" are only being given up to activate them

Amoto94:
I get where you are driving which is my fears too knowing our history of rehabilitation, reintegration and reconstruction. This is where our scrutiny should lie not whether the initiative is a good one or not, our inability is the only stumbling block I see to us achieving any considerable amount of success.
I pray and hope that the authorities get it right this time around to end the insurgency and other security challenges bedeviling the country
I will be honest with you here my friend ; this is not the time to "hope and pray", rather it is a time to take actions. This not a time for me and u that have no military training to hope and pray but a time for those who have had both military and political exposure not to make the mistake of doing what they ought not to.

In all honesty Buhari as of today represent incompetence, we've never had it worse under any other president/head of state dead or alive. We have ragtag bandits walking right into a military barrack kidnapping senior military officers happening right before our eyes.....the same military that has defence budget of billions of naira every year to strengthen the security apparatus of the nation. If this is not incompetence on the part of Buhari I wonder what it is considering he's the Grand Commander of our military and he's supposed to be an army general.

The money budgeted for fighting insecurity yearly is enough for us to discard "hope and prayers" at this point and demand for results. This particular bandit attack is even more puzzling considering the afaka barracks is not far from the school these same bandits abducted school kids months ago.

Mehn! I just tire cry

https://punchng.com/not-all-surrendered-terrorists-are-criminals-says-zulum/
Zulum is one of the most useless governors that ever ruled a state in this country.

The governor, however, added those who have surrendered will be trained for reintegration
In case u don't know these so called training will only happen on paper. It is known fact that these guys are stark illetrate most of whom didn't even get educated to primary school level, they learnt no skills and have not really done any other thing than farming before they were recruited into the terrorist organization.

In all honesty in Ur heart of heart do u think the government has the finance, patience and human resources to do the kind of integration these set of people require ? That is if what the government said in that punch report is even true at all.

Now bear in mind how government programs in the past have always failed because some group of people will either embezzle funds in the middle of the programme ( like dem Kingsley kuku did to niger delta amnesty programme ) , what do u think happens when the needs of these “repentant “ terrorists are not met in the future ?

No matter how u look at it , this so called reintegration is just bad business that shouldn’t happen .

I am still not convinced that OBJ wouldn't have done better than Buhari and Jonathan in handling security issues in Nigeria.

Sambisa forest would have become an amusement park by now.
OBJ would've nipped the whole Boko Haram issue in the bud before it becomes a major security issue. He's one of the men that takes major decisions like that without tribal /religious sentiments or "what will my critics say" attitude. Buhari represents the former while Jonathan is the latter .

Just imagine after the whole killings then they will come back to beg and blame devil angry angry
I read the talibans that took over Afghanistan were once repentant too
It is not only annoying but also insulting to the memories of those gallant men who died fighting those terrorists . I mean those men will roll in their graves to see their killers carrying placards with packs of indomie donated by those sympathetic with them.

I would feel worse than the wife of Col Sakaba whose husband was cut down in his prime by these criminals.

A friend of mine lost his mum to herdsmen attacks on the highway. The mum and dad were travelling to ondo state when the killer herdsmen waylaid travellers; his mum caught a bullet while his dad ran for his dear life in the midst of the pandemonium only to meet his wife's corpse in the car after the herdsmen were done with their "business".

Now just imagine how my friend will feel if tomorrow the killer hardsmen are given expanse of land from people's inheritance (as Buhari govt has been pushing ) , claim they have "repented" of their sins and are asked to "go and sin no more "

Contextual understanding is a problem for us, in Colombia FARC Rebels were granted pardon when the authorities realized that military action alone won't end the decades old war. I'm not saying that combatants shouldn't be killed, you people choose to misrepresent my position for reasons best known to you.
No reasonable government will pardon "Terrorists" who kill or rape it's citizens.

The FARC rebel amnesty deal u are referring to is specific; It refers to solely political crimes and excludes killings,rape etc.

Honestly it makes no sense allowing people who killed in the name of extreme religious views, some weird ideology, etc to just "turn new leaf" and "sin no more".....Trust me, u are only making things worse.

I'm really interested in knowing why anybody thinks Boko Haram, Bandits, etc should be "pardoned", "reintegrated back into the society " after the numerous terrorist attacks like this one.

I know most people will not agree, but Pepe is trash ; slow to react to situations, never wins the ball and utterly lazy. Everytine he jumps to contest for the ball I am always damn sure he's never going to win the ball; He never disappointed me.

Pepe is just a Xhaka who is not a midfielder.

[color=royalblue]When we used to play mocking post back then. Some of us were never good enough for any set. grin

So our only hope was playing a smaller ball behind the pitch. Maybe Felele or something grin. After the playtime, both us and people who played in different sets would sweat, but we didn't really participate in the important game grin

This picture reminds me of those days[/color]
I can relate perfectly well.

In my former place of residence we used to play Saturday morning 6 aside set with one goalkeeper. The set starts 7am but before 7 all players must have conveyed, get drafted into a team and then wait for their turn to get on the field.

Some egbons don't always get selected not because they are late but because of their zero footballing skill/knowledge....so as we play they just keep training, knocking the ball around in some unused part of the field.

For someone like me who gas out easily on the pitch, once I see my team is up by a goal or two and the time is running down, I will call one of those ègbón to replace me....The joy on their face alone is a sight to behold grin.... Unfortunately Boateng is not as lucky as those ègbón now sef cry

United's class of 92' alone beat those iniesta and Xavi you mentioned hands down with Messi being the exception because he's a once in a generation talent.. Let La Masia win the league with practically kids like the class of 92' , I'll then take you serious after that.

La Masia is a good academy, but you don't run down other academies just to make your point.
What United academy class of 92 did will never be replicated, in a long time, at least not in my generation.
I'm curious to know what this "United class of 92" did which Xavi and Iniesta failed to do in their playing career.

I would appreciate if u can list out these achievements/milestone/awards/cups/medals
