mukina2: frogs go sleep for ya bed today

Finally, Les Blues dream is over!

coded01:

My advise to all Les blues players, their luggage should be well packed for their return flight back to Paris...

I hope they did just that before this match...

mukina2: behave o!!

What is your baby daddy coming in to do?

honeric01: With James in the picture + Suarez, how would the formation look like if both are to be in the starting lineup....

Its only if your Neymar won't start!

James plays from the right while Iniesta plays from the left while messi plays in front of Rakitic and behind Suarez respectively...

AjanleKoko: Suarez top 9.

Exactly!


So you see James Rodriguez has no choice but to be our Super -Sub!

imperiouxx: Why you no greet we American immigrants but only born Americans?

Abeg no vex padi mi! *Modified*

How your side?

AjanleKoko: Of course you may

It seems you have forgotten that we are now dealing with a new, and more likely very direct Barca. Anything is possible, and obviously their ain't no more a first eleven.
In the current setup the best midfield it seems we can muster is Iniesta-Busquets-Rakitic. Not a keep-ball formation in my view, since Rakitic is not known to be a great passer of the ball like that.

The only real competition for James is Leo Messi. We don't have a playmaker in the team, so Messi essentially occupies two positions - playing in the 'hole', and also occupying the 9 position on the pitch. You can play James in the hole, and put a real striker in the number 9 - and maybe move Messi out right. Iniesta will play on the left as usual

Where would my Suarez play?


Make una no try rough play oh...

AjanleKoko: ^^^

That guy is too good to accept a sub role. Besides, he already said he prefers Marid.

If i may ask? Who will he bench in our 1st 11?

mukina2: i know you?

My advise to all Les blues players, their luggage should be well packed for their return flight back to Paris...

Make them no enter South oh...

Mukina2, your Les blues are going down today!

Happy Independence Day To All Foriegn-Born Americans!!!

How did the first Independence Day come about?

In 1776, Richard Henry Lee, who was born in Virginia but schooled in England, proposed that the 13 American colonies should declare their independence from Britain.

A committee of five men, including Thomas Jefferson, was appointed to build a case for severing ties with Britain and draft the Declaration of Independence. Congress voted in favour of independence on 2 July and it was formally issued two days later, on 4 July 1776.

The Declaration of Independence was first read out to cheering crowds on 8 July, and by 15 July all 13 American colonies had approved it (New York previously abstained from voting).

Chieee

Blood Bath

We dey wait oh...

Travellers flying to the United States from Europe and the Middle East face tighter airport security checks from Thursday due to fears extremist Muslim groups are making new explosives able to slip by standard checks.

The measures threaten fresh disruptions for passengers at the start of the summer holiday season and will affect some direct flights to the US.
Officials declined to say if they had uncovered a specific plot.

But the move comes amid increased concern among Western intelligence services that Islamist fighters who go to Syria with European passports could pose a security risk on their return.

The announcement of the extra checks on direct flights from some overseas airports to the US was made by US Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson Wednesday.

“We are sharing recent and relevant information with our foreign allies and are consulting the aviation industry,” Johnson said in a statement.
The airports are located in the Middle East and Europe and were targeted “based on real-time intelligence”, according to an official at the
Department of Homeland Security who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Britain confirmed it is bolstering security at its airports in response.

The move came before the US Independence Day celebrations on Friday.

On Sunday, US President Barack Obama warned that “battle-hardened” Europeans who embrace jihad in Syria and Iraq threaten the United
States because their passports mean they can enter his country without a visa.
- ‘Credible new threats’ -

Despite the increased checks, Britain said the international terror threat level issued by security service MI5 remained unchanged at substantial, the third highest grade out of five, where it has been since July 2011.

Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg said that extra security measures were the right response to “credible new threats”.

“It’s very important that we work — as we do — with our American partners and indeed with other countries around the world so that where credible new threats are identified, a response is then implemented in airports around the world,” Clegg told ITV television.

Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin insisted to Sky News that passengers should not face “significant delays”.

The Department for Transport did not comment in detail on the nature of the security searches.
London’s Heathrow airport — the world’s busiest international air hub — said that to reveal the details “would be very helpful for the people who want to pass through the system”.

Aviation security expert Philip Baum told Sky the added checks would likely mean an increase in random searches and the number of passengers being asked to remove their shoes at security.

Passengers in Britain have long faced tight security measures at airports following high-profile threats including a failed attempt by British “shoe bomber” Richard Reid to blow up a US-bound flight in 2001.

Security was further tightened after a plot to blow up “liquid bombs” on transatlantic flights was uncovered in 2006.

Ben Friedman, a defence and homeland security expert at the Cato Institute think-tank in the US, told the BBC that fears had been raised over people with European passports who were fighting in Syria.

But he noted that previous attempts by Yemeni bomb makers to blow up planes had been unsuccessful.

“While we want to be prudent and cautious… these guys are serial failures,” he added.

A Nigerian, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, is serving a life sentence for trying to blow up a US-bound airliner on December 25, 2009 with explosives hidden in his underwear.

US officials said the botched plot was the work of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, based in Yemen.

ddippset: mascherano surely has got attitude. But he shouldn't be in the first team. Not at CB and not at DM cus it's busquets over him. He should just be a cover up for both DM and CB. He can't be captain. I am very sure it will be iniesta or pique.

I agree with you...

No scatter formation for us for here jare...

Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka has said that Nigeria is suffering greater carnage at the hands of the violent Islamic sect, Boko Haram, than it did during the country’s 30-month civil war.

Soyinka, however, said the Boko Haram insurgency had made the country’s break-up less likely.

He said this in an interview with Reuters on Wednesday in Abeokuta, Ogun State.

Soyinka said the horrors inflicted by the Boko Haram insurgents had shown Nigerians across the mostly Muslim north and Christian south that sticking together might be the only way to avoid even greater sectarian slaughter.

Nigeria fought a bloody civil war between 1967 and 1970 to stop the secession attempt by the Igbo of the present South-East zone.

The Nobel laureate said, “We have never been confronted with butchery on this scale, even during the civil war.

“There were atrocities (during Biafra) but we never had such a near predictable level of carnage and this is what is horrifying.”

A million people died during the Biafra war, though mostly through starvation and illness, rather than violence.

Boko Haram’s five-year-old struggle to carve out an Islamic state from its bases in the North-East has become increasingly bloody, with near daily attacks killing many thousands.

The conflict’s growing intensity has led Nigerian commentators to predict it may split the country, 100 years after British colonial rulers cobbled Nigeria together from their northern and southern protectorates.

“I think ironically it’s less likely now. For the first time, a sense of belonging is predominating. It’s either we stick together now or we break up, and we know it would be not in a pleasant way,” Soyinka said.

Boko Haram’s abduction of more than 200 schoolgirls from the Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, on April 14 drew unprecedented international attention to the insurgency and pledges of aid from Western powers, but violence has worsened.

The sect’s fighters frequently massacre whole villages, gunning down fleeing residents and burning their homes.

The insurgents on Sunday returned to the Chibok Local Government Area, attacking churches and worshippers during worship in Kwada, Kautikari and Kanagau communities. On Tuesday, the insurgents bombed a popular market in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, from where the sect started off its campaign of violence in 2009.

Soyinka said fewer people were shrugging off Boko Haram’s menace.

“It’s almost unthinkable to say: ‘well, let’s leave them to their devices.’ Very few people are thinking that way,” he said.

Attacks spreading southwards, including three bombings in the Federal Capital Territory since April, showed it was not a just a northern problem.

Soyinka said, “The (Boko Haram) forces that would like to see this nation break up are the very forces which will not be satisfied having their enclave.

“(We) are confronted with an enemy that will never be satisfied with the space it has.

“When the spectre of Sharia first came up, for political reasons, this was allowed to hold, instead of the president defending the constitution.”

He sees both Christianity and Islam as foreign impositions.

“We cannot ignore the negative impacts which both have had on African society. They are imperialist forces: intervening, arrogant. Modern Africa has been distorted,” he told Reuters.

He added that while the leadership of Boko Haram needed to be “decapitated completely”, little had been done to present an alternative ideological vision to their “deluded” followers, driven largely by economic destitution and despair.

andyanders: Keshi is just a waste and should just go.

Thank you very much...

Obiagu1: Answer my question, what coach was better than Keshi in Nigerian history?

Without Enyeama in goal!

We probably would have ended up in the last position! -- Bitter but true~
