Well as a man thinketh so he is.

When a person has low self esteem and a very parochial view this is what you get. In a sense educated illiterates.

And the assumption that he who shouts the loudest is right.

I do not mean to be disrespectful, but this write up best defines and describes u bro.

When u come here claiming to know every damne person in the UK, u appear desperate and trying too hard to impress people here and look relevant. That desperation makes u look insecure and this can simply be termed a low self-esteem.

When u come here giving ur usually biased analysis, especially when it is about home grown talents, it portrays u as someone with a parochial sense of reasoning


Finally, when u come here being ambiguous, sometimes with semantic and grammatical malapropisms just to win an argument, it shows u as someone trying to shout the loudest to appear RIGHT. And this is what educated illiterates are best known for

TheSuperNerd:
Please be informed.... Komekn suffers amnesia and markets half-truths everytime an indigenous Naija born is involved. It is a pattern we have to keep enduring... Biko bear with him.

Like the one he just dropped a while ago by labelling Mata, Martial, Maguire, Young, Jones, Pereira, Matic, Romero et al, academy players just bkus dey managed to beat AZ Alkmar. But where was he the last match, when Astana squizzed life outta Man United? An Astana team that just got single handledly annihilated by Sadiq Umar ooo

komekn:
I am still waiting for you to name the Nigerian home grown players that l have denigrated with negative bias and prejudice in favour of what you have termed FB (foreign born players)

You still haven't been able to name just one not even two JUST ONE it's very simple.

Here and Now are not the same thing as IN- FORM but of course that may be too
difficult for you to comprehend.

When a statement is taken out of CONTEXT it becomes a CON, thats essentially what you are a CON.

You can never have a discussion without vitriolic rhetoric and abuse. You always EVADE and HIDE.

But but but... Osimhen will never be able to get a place in any of the championship academies nah

A carpenter showed up today in the form of Henry Uche Agbo. Dude put on a show in the DM position as his team(FC Braga) ran away with a 2-4 win against Sloven Bratislava

komekn:
Remarkable how Manchester United essentially academy team are flogging the 2nd best team in the Eredivisie 4-0.

Rangers struggling through to get a draw against Young boys with a man just sent off.

Aribo has been absolutely outstanding for Rangers. Seyi Ojo just about OK not particularly impressive for me.

Yes with academy players like Romero, Maguire, Tuanzebe, Young, Mata, Matic, Pereira, Martial, Greenwood all playing 90minutes right?


Wow!! What an academy stars Man United has there



BTW, same academy players were destroyed by Astana in their last match, a team(Astana) that just got single handledly mauled my Sadiq Umar

andrewbaba44:
Earthquake won’t see Gabriel Jesus scoring hatrick but he knows how to troll me if Jesus failed to score in a game

Smh

Earthquake is a tribalist for always berating Gabby Jesus

TheSuperNerd:
The guy do mistake. Forgive am. He no know say you be Nigerian with Senegalese, Ivorian, and Malian passports. Him no know say your wife na Ivorian and your favorite concubine na Senegalese. Biko forgive am... Nwayo Nwoke'm... Lol

The boy miss road

andrewbaba44:
Jeremy Boga is an Am and has been better than iwobi this season

Cristian Kouame has been better than our wingers

We are top on the rest apart from CB and GK

Kouame has played more as a striker than as winger. In fact he isnt seen as a winger


Lol Boga an attacking midfielder? Bros, Boga hasnt seen the midfield this season, and that's why he has been doing well. Boga na winger

BARAJ92:
Because those are the popular ones

When it comes to francophone players, not just Senegalese players, i would school you.


Seems u are new in here

andrewbaba44:
Please list the nigerian that have been better apart from 2 or 3, even you your self know this

Wilfred ndidi, victor osimhen

Please remind me of who else?

Side by side, Aina has been better than anything Senegal can offer at the RB position.

Headless chicken Simoses has done better than all the Senegalese wingers, so far this season. Sarr and Balde have been a shadow of themselves.

Chuks trumps everything Senegalese can boast of as wingers.

Gueye of PSG is a learner compared to the present Ndidi in the DM position.

Besides Koulibaly, our centre backs have done better this season, compared to theirs.

They can't boast of any AM as good as Iwobi.

That said, we and Dem no be mate in the goal keeping department Sha

safarigirl:
Based on club stats?

I did my checks, seems I was wrong, I must admit.

Edouard has been a monster between the sticks for Rennes. None of our goalkeepers comes close.

Koulibaly, Mane and Gueye the less said about these trio, the better.

Then, Diallo has good numbers in the ligue1

That's all about the Senegalese players currently.

TheSuperNerd:
She talks about Nigeria having the highest number of most inform players in Europe than any other African team including Senegal and that is correct.

Even Senegal's claim as the most in-form national team this year is debatable. Algeria as a national team has been the best and most in-form in Africa this year.

I was talking about the individual players that make up the national team, not the national team as a unit.


I must admit, Nigerian players have been better.

I can only pick Eduard, Gomis, Koulibaly, Mane, Diallo and Gueye from the Senegalese team

safarigirl:
Nigeria has the most in form players in Africa.

Straight FACTS

That's not true, Senegal is more in form than any other team in Africa

komekn:
We have seen players hyped but it becomes easier when they perform.

The thing that really helps in your rating if you are not in a top club. Is if you can score goals in the Champions league.

In this regard Victor fails because he has scored once in th Champions league. Please remind me how many Haaland has scored.

Nonetheless, l think Victor is much faster and with hungry determined aggressive streak.

Haaland plays for a far more better team than Osimhen's. I will reiterate, Haaland would struggle to have Osimhen's Numbers if he was a Lille player, playing alongside ikone, Bamba, Xeka and co.


By the way, get ur facts right, Osimhen has two goals not one, so far in the champions league

maidaboi:
hype on beat

What do u know?

Erling Braut Haaland is good but not better than Osimhen. The reason for his goal haul is simply bkus he plays for a better team, he would struggle to get as many goals playing alongside Ikone, Bamba and co. No young striker posseses Osimhen's innate ruggedity. Haaland doesn't have Osimhen's workrate, off the ball.



BTW, Mwepu is great baller

Mujtahida:
I'm not talking geography. I've already affirmed that as far as geography is concerned you are correct. However with geo politics this does not apply.

Morocco is in North Africa yet Ecowas has in principle approved Morocco's membership application despite the country being in North Africa.

Ecowas is a geopolitical body with economic focus just as NATO is a geopolitical body with defence as its focus.

These examples u gave do not correlate with the major topic. Ecowas is nothing but an organization, though formed and made up of people from West Africa, hence can be joined by anybody who meets their terms and conditions. Morrocco joining Ecowas doesn't make them West Africans. Remember this isn't an ethnic discourse where u could say bkus Anambra is GeoPOLITICALLY ceaded to maybe the South West doesn't make dem to cease being from the Igbo tribe, since the Odua tribe constitutes the South West.

Mujtahida:
But there you have it in Nigeria as South South as a testament to man's power to create his own fictions regardless of motivations.

In geography, yes imaginary lines are drawn, but it is never done outside the recognized conditions and factors. U can not just call a place an SS without clarifications bkus that doesn't exist. It is either SSE or SSW

Joebie:
okay as u sabi Geography , where really does Anambra, Imo and and Enugu lie? Then following your geography, Edo, Bayelsa, Delta and maybe even Rivers would be in the South West. Take note that FCT is slightly to west from center.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/b9/Map_of_Nigerian_States_with_names.png

Now u are alluding to my assertions and theories. Clearly from that map, aren't Anambra and Imo SSWs while Abia and Ebonyi are SSEs? Then, Cross River and Akwa Ibom SE?

Also from that map, the places in the Eastern hismphere are; Adamawa, Plateau and Taraba while the western hismphere are Kwara, FCT and Niger.

Wow thanks man, it is working

charlesemeka85:
u dey watch the game?

I dey follow am, I no see link, the few I saw have geographical restrictions

Mujtahida:
Yes they should align with geography and in most cases they do align but not necessarily so because they are fictions. What I mean by fictions is that they are created by politics unlike the true geographical points which are embedded in the universe itself. In law we have legal fictions. For example an incorporated company is regarded as a person because by legal fiction it is given the attributes of a human being in order to make it answerable to law. But you and I know that a company is not a person but by operation of law it has become one.



Same thing applies to states or nations. We can create them, alter them and even dissolve them depending on several factors. Several nations in history no longer exist even though their geographies exist. Their names are nothing today but historical relics.

I understand that the geopolitical configuration is fraudulent and generally I do not say I'm from the North. I'm more in tune with identifying myself as a person from the middle belt.

States and countries can be fictitious, since boundaries are imaginary, but I don't think geopolitical zones should also be fabrications, in real sense. The main determinant factor to creating a geopolitical zone should be location, but in Nigeria they have other mischievous factors which are in most cases fraudulent.

Hmm guys, Maja good ooo!!


Dude is sure gonna consign Briand to the bench, permanently.

Another great game from Chima Okoroji

Blueelf:
What of Trent Alexander Arnold?

He is one of the best in the world if not the best

Arnold is good going forward, especially with his wicked crosses, but defensively he is no match for Ricardo. Ricard never tires out, sometimes I wonder if he is on drugs.

Ricardo Pereira is the best RB in the EPL


My opinion

mank1234:
ITK. U sure say u dey naija so? Wetin concern geography and political arrangement? The arrangement dey constitution o. Abi u wan enter constitution correct am?

Typical Nigerian with a politically messed up cerebrum


Imagine u were not a Nigerian, and u were given the Nigerian map to locate Akwa Ibom in an exam, using the cardinal points, u would tell ur examiner Akwa Ibom is in South South Nigeria abi?


Plz no dey quote me if na noise u wan make

Mujtahida:
Even though I agree with you as per geography, geo-polical configurations need not align with geography cos sometimes they are based on fictions just like the south south.

Any reasons why geopolitical configurations shouldn't align with geography? Isn't geopolitical configuration a product of geography?

TheSuperNerd:
Prognosed Commentary moment (in case Nacho plays):

Nacho scores!!!! Oh my word! And surely now that is game over for Man City!! That "chance" he didn't take last season to give Liverpool a shot at an EPL title win has been taken today and buried with aplomb! Nacho comes back to haunt his old club.... And he slides away in celebration and I'm like thinking what could be going through Pep's mind right now......

This is all imaginative of course but what if it comes true? Time will tell


#NachoIsBack

Tell Iheanacho to remove the dot under that "I" In abidii Igbo( Igbo alphabet), that udaume(vowel) doesn't have dot beneath, it has the sound, as in "Sleek" not "ilk"

It shouldn't be all about Nacho in here, the through ball Ndidi gave vardy but missed by a whisker by Maddison was crazy.

Triniti:
Andrew zukwanu ike. Today you are from the Delta, tomorrow you are from the north

Identity crisis

AIG07:
Nacho doing take ons is worth testifying next Sunday.
