Na the conversation dey make you open teeth or na the weed wey you dey take.

Abeg, na who be the deluder?

You have always disliked Valencia. It was you who said a certain Brazilian would come and Valencia would be sold. You said Darmian was even ahead of Valencia in the perking order for right back.

Now I don't hear about that Brazilian again and Valencia is our new captain. He wore the arm band for the first time when we beat Chelsea. He captained us to win Europa. How else is not qualified? Carrick, Smalling, Mata and Fellaini were tried but at the end it landed on Valencia. He is worthy captain. Herrera will have to wait for his time if ever he will be captain because Smalling and Mata are still ahead of him.

Mark it, Herrera cannot be captain if Mata and Smalling are in the team. Now you tall of Griezmann coming, which might take Herrera's position back back.

Elamps you need to take a chill pill. Person no fit get different opinion from yours without you trying to stamp your own.

This guy has even admitted Valencia has improved from his previous position.

Make una chill, we are still in celebration mode, except for some die hard mourinho haters who are depressed because mourinho disappointed them.

Oasis007:
If you indeed know the meaning of Hypocrisy, then it won't be hard to judge yourself as a Hypocrite.

You dey mind those fake fans who are finding it hard yo celebrate with the club they supposedly support because mourinho has embarrassed their existence.

Clutching at straws. Keeping silent would have even been better ygan still trying to bring don the club even when there has been some form of success.

Its a shame!

Funlord2:
Nah......that's our next captain dude! Once rooney and Carrick exit the door! His contract expires in a year or so I think...so this is probably his agents handiwork! They are probably twisting man United's arm to get him the fattest contract possible!

The club even wants to give it to him so his agent needs to chillax! ANDER IS GOING NOWHERE!

Valencia should be captain before Herrera especially if f he continues with his form.

They have swept the matter under a building foundation. Except the building is demolished.

Nothing dey happen.

raumdeuter:

Nna ehh.

Romero could have been chilling with one nice lass and ajax no go score.


Anyways make somborryvstart to dey set up canopy for one useless assclub thread.

I don dey iron my agbada.

metodman:
He's gonna have a limited feat as a striker if he's not careful... the boy can't even use his head to save his life. He's good though and still have a lot of time to develop.

He needs a talking to.

He thinks he can outrun everybody ones he gets the ball.

Rashford just wanna run. No hold up play at all.

Na normal thing for mourinho, manage to score 1 first and then invite the opposition to press us without any form of countering from us.

Its an annoying tactics.

Leyqute:
Let's get the second goal. They're more likely to make mistakes now. We should capitulate on that.

Na excitement!!

I just love the way mourinho did not even react after the goal.

LoRdCaT:
Baba Elamps na which kind grammar be this na?

Na today you dey see am.

There is also speeding players.

GloryIsaac:
Come to think of it, what if we don't win tomorrow.. i've always tried to kill such thought but it keeps popping up

Hahaha confidence don dey shake. I think say you talk say the win sure pass it is allowed, make these guys no fall person hand.

elampiro:
Coogar used to suggest Laccazete and we all laughed at him. But the guy is still scoring. Although I don't know his price.

Bas Dost scored 34 goals in 30 league matches for Sporting, the next in Portuguese league scoref only 16 goals. His goals per minutes for Wolfsburg was not bad at all. I don’t know his price tag.

But transfer market has it this way:

Bas Dost €10m
Laccazete €30m
Griezmann €80m

We can buy both and add to Rashford. Bas Dost is more like Crouch pouncing on crosses and loose balls so he might not be very attactive. But he scores.


There are still players even in Serie A scoring over 20 goals

Thank god you finally named some guys.

So you are saying any of these guys will guarantee 20 goals for us regardless the tactics and formarion.

I admit I Dont know much about bas, but is it the same dzeko that played for city you talking about? Lacazette?

So if they Dont do the needful we fall back to zlatan, Rooney and rashford.

The moment these guys hear we are interested in them their clubs will automatically slap a 70m clause on them.

elampiro:
He will improve us by what degree? A marginal improvement will be counter productive on the young players. Their development will still because Griezmann cannot sit on the bench.

That's all I have for you for now.

So name the players that you think will improve us exponentially that will come cheap.

You can even name some from our reserve team. Just name some players, that's all we are asking.


You cannot just condemn someone the coach has identified that would improve the team and cant name anyone that you think fits the bill and comes cheap and GUARANTEED TO SCORE since you already know griezmann won't guaranty us goals.

I ask again have you discussed our tactics and formation with mourinho that has given you a better insight than us here?

gabng:
Oh!

You still refuse to sort your confused life.

I repeat you are myopic due to your limited brain matter.

Board Chairman & GMD of NNPC? Who reports to who? Before you show your level of dumbness & answer stupidly study the existing laws establishing the NNPC.

Was Dikko a career officer or not? Is he not from the president's home state ? Did he not steal Nigeria blind? Is he not on the run? Did your clueless hero do anything about it?

May the blood of those who died because of his greed be on his head & people like you who support him.

Ode! Quote me again & insult your ancestor's

I have been wasting my time with a zombified Neanderthal.

I leave you to wallow in your ignorant stupor.

Funlord2:
It's not rooneys fault! Have you forgotten he has AIDS according to his NL physio! Who can perform while suffering from such a debilitating condition? Please have some compassion!

So it was AIDS and someone was deceiving us that it was backpain. Chai

elampiro:
Option ke

Griezmann will be an option? Griezmann means Rashford out to the wing or the bench. He will become our new Welbeck whose career as striker will be frustrated.

This was why I said if we can't get a cheap striker then we get Vardy to back up Rashford. Since the dependable strikers are out of reach.

Griezmann is no longer dependable sef

You seem not to get the point.

Whichever way you look at it, it improves the team. Imagine rashford taken off and griezmann is coming in or vice versa. Its better than a Rooney who is tired whether he has s played on the wings, as SS or striker.

What tactics/formation they use now boils down to what the coach has in mind. Mourinho is the one that wants yo buy the player he wants and he believes he has an idea what he wants from them, except you are telling me you and mourinho discussed it.

Am still waiting for THE LIST! and please Dont tell me you are busy because you have been replying post here almost going to 3pages now and I still can't see THE LIST

elampiro:
Those times defenders like Pique allowed Griezmann free headers has passed. He wont even find the space in the EPL with his 5.9 height. When Ibrahimovic and Fellaini are finding it hard to beat defenders with heading.

Look at his national team performance since Euro 2016, he has declined. Two goals against poor footballing nations in the matches they won with high scoreline.

See you guys much later.

If zlatan and fellaini are finding it hard to beat defenders with heading why Dont you name the giants like goliath that we should sign that would beat every defender in heading.

joeace2020:
Which kain talk be this naw? The moment the whistle blows for the first kick of the season, your attackers become your go to guys... the people you want to be banging the goals. In an Atletico team where the attackers weren't scoring like water, he was still one of the trusted go-to guys helping with goals for wins and as you have shown draws when it was needed. Why are you contradicting yourself? Without those goals they would have ended midtable. How many goals do our attackers besides Ibrahimovic have? Did anyone come near even 10 in the league. Imagine if greizmann gave us 16 to add to Ibrahimovic's 17, we would have made top 4 and play the Europa League final just to collect the trophy. Nawa for una oo.

When only zlatan dey score for us it was a problem, now someone is coming from a club where the goals are spread out amongst 2 - 3 people with the player having his fair share they say he is not a go-to guy.

MSN scored more goals that BBC but BBC won the league so for me all these he doesnt score against top clubs does not make any sense at all.

Someone score double figures regularly just yo discredit the person people come up with irrelevant stats.

Abeg joeace help me ask these guys if we had grizmann as an option instead of Rooney, would it not have improved the team?

joeace2020:
We are waiting for the list. Let's hope it doesn't contain names like

Jamie Vardy, Defoe, Modeste, Gomis, Dzeko and so on

You people should not put names in elampiros fingers na

elampiro:
I will be back with a list later.

Elamps, how far?

I would have expected that for someone who has been arguing vehemently against the purchase of griezemann, that you would have at least 4 -5names off the top of your head that are better options. So that we can also debate their suitability.

This one that looks like you are going to consult amadioha and obatala for names, I yam not understanding.

Funlord2:
He mentioned vardy? Jamie _fucking vardy?

Guy calm down!

Elampiro will come back with an elaborate list. I trust him.

GloryIsaac:
The party go hold for their thread sure ....

As for this griezmann, i no trust am, we are going for a gamble and the odds aren't in our favour...

I don send different people to go buy material for me for Lagos island.

Na EYO style I wan take show for the party.



You never can tell what's gonna happen. How you guys are so sure the guy will be a flop is what me I can't understand.

See how falcao came to united and could not do anything, a player that looked like those demons on horse back in all those robin hood movies when in full flight with ball. He is Monaco now and am thinking , is this the same falcao that was in united?

If griezemann come, he will contribute his share and if he fails na mourinho go chop am.

No one is actually cheap again and since other clubs are smelling our desperation even Musa as someone suggested might cost 100m if we indicate interest.

Na we cause am sha.

elampiro:
I will be back with a list later.

OK, we dey wait.

That's why I like elamps him ready die with him convictions.

elampiro:
The truth is I feel he is a gamble. He might come in and prove me wrong. But from what is on ground, we should look for another. The worst is that he doesn't have the pace to burst forward like Rashford. All the chances we couldn't make something out of due to lack of pace of Ibrahimovic might still be the same story. A through ball that should be one vs one would amount to nothing because a pacing defender recovered.

Griezmann problem actually started from Euro 2016 final. He could have won it for France but he missed glaring chances. He has even regress from that tournament.

Please name the others we should be looking for?

Let's even have an idea who you think is ideal for that position.

Realistically.

9jakohai:
Just the effects of living on one revenue stream.

If we want to have enough money for salaries....short term, since oil is not going up to 100 and above we have to

1.Increase taxes

2.Increase taxes

3.Increase taxes

4.Or start retrenching excess staff in the Civil service. (It is bloated anyway).


APC govt better hurry up and diversify the economy....or else they may have to make choices they won't like.

Like number 5: Take a big fat loan from the IMF....payable for an infinite number of years.(Don't worry....Mother IMF loves her slaves very much).

Increase taxes indeed......

The govt has not created an environment that will encourage SME and FDI to create more jobs so that they can have more people paying both company and income tax. You want them to the increase taxes on the few set of people who regularly pay their taxes.

Waiting for this govt to diversify is like waiting for pigs to fly.

Loan to pay salaries is a very weak and lazy approach.

I just wish we can restructure. This country will change in 10years.

Stability of electricity will sort out a lot and open up the country. That national grid nonsense is just archaic.

Let SS use gas to power their electricity
SW use their IPP project
SE use coal
NORTH and MB use all the dams, shiroro, kainji etc with wind and sunlight.

Once we have power, companies will thrive, provide employment and states can get company and income tax etc.

GloryIsaac:
He's gonn' be a good addition no doubt, but there are little factors that may affect his performance rating and that's exactly what i'm pointing out.... See Pogba for example, he has faced a lot of backlash b'cos of his transfer fee and the 6th issue but everyone has forgotten that Ibrahimovic is the reason Pogba's assist count isn't high enough to avoid critics, that one needs 100 to score 2......
Hopefully, Grizzy is gonn' take care of that situation for us.....

Btw, we go shaa chop better cake after EL match b'cos na sure win

WHEN we win the EL na for arsenal thread I go celebrate

Players are not exactly responsible for their price tags, there are many factors that determines that. I understand those that say his price might not worth it but for me its what he brings to the field is what am concerned about, after all I can't influence the price, na wetin I wan see for field be my problem.

Now to use his price to now evaluate his contribution s to the team will be seen when or if he comes.

Nobody blames pogba for those balls he gives to baba zlatan that he misses, tgats what we expect from him. pogbas criticisms are more of his lazy play and his somewhat lack of urgency, trying to guard the ball instead doing a simple pass, showboating.

GloryIsaac:
Well, if you watch Griezmann play, you'll know that Grizzy doesn't perform well when the team is down, he's not the one you can look to for salvation... checkout that R.Madrid match in UCL (2nd Leg), did you see the way atletico played?, even the goal Grizzy scored was b'cos of Torres and Carrascos e.t.c doggedness... their morale plunged after Iscos goal and as usual no one even grizzy could stage a comeback fight, that's what i mean by relying heavily on team performance.... don't forget bayern vs atletico last year i think, something similar happened but thankfully atletico still qualified...

As for Sanchez, he's career will be like Wengers own if he doesn't find his way out of that Assnal

I have my reservations about griezemann but I still think he would be a good addition if he comes.

My grouse with statements like him depending on the team is that why single out griezemann to perform when you're excusing his other team mates who are not performing.

Is football not supposed to be a team sports again or is griezemann not entitled to having an off day on the field sometimes.

He must have don something good to have become the 3rd best.

Cut the guy some slack abeg.

Who is even available sef? Quality of Options in the market will improve WHEN we win the EL

GloryIsaac:
Apart from transfer fee, griezmann is def not your go-to guy when needed..... he relies heavily on the team performance for him to shine and this our team na dead except Pogba and Mata when it comes to sheer brilliance.....

Guy, try ask Sanchez who works his socks out for one useless team like that where it has gotten him.

What exactly do you really mean by "he relies heavily on the team" sef.

I thought sometimes coaches set up their teams around a player. Am not suggesting we do that with griezemann but let's wait and see what the coach wants to do.

Mourinho has no excuse again next season.

gabng:
You case is why you should not have gone past the spermatozoa stage.

Just to confirm what I stated above, Was the appointment of Dr Maikanti Baru by PMB as GMD, NNPC on the recommendation of a southerner & fellow deltan like me in the person of Dr Ibe Kachikwu a subversion of the constitution?

Was a southerner next in line or most senior in NNPC?

A Southerner lost the election 2 years ago because he was clueless & couldn't even govern his own region.

Deal with it or hang yourself

PS:- Dropping your dingbat phrase will only succeed in showing your low self esteem.

You are nothing but "Nkpokolo Bottle "

Abi you follow eat yam

In The Words of Ludacris - What Are You MAD for?

The hollow in your head must have been caused by a disease. I hope its not hereditary.

My dingbat phrase makes me have low self esteem, right? But when you first called me myopic and dumb, you were exhibiting intelligence. You are an incorrigible miserable sod.

Your God, buhari had no choice but to appoint a minister from every state. Its a ministry so it was hard for him to manipulate, that's why a deltan like yourself got the petroleum ministry as a junior minister only to be headed by buhari himself, someone who couldn't realise that the burden of being the president alone was enormous but also added the petroleum ministry to his responsibilities. How would he not fall sick.

A career customs officer strives to become the cgc so when he reaches the pinnacle and is denied that by bringing someone else from outside, its demoralising. These are career professions unlike ministers.

It had to be when buhari was away on one of his sick sojourns for osinbajo to finally do the needful in onnoghens case. If not another of his brothers would have been the cjn today. Am sure there are other examples I can't remember now.

I am also from the Niger delta and I feel Jonathan was a disappointment, but buhari was never the option and he is a disaster.

I really Dont want to abuse you again but for first calling me myopic and dumb because of my opinion I think you should reduce the undiluted drugs that has made you an idiot.

zoedew:
Hmmmm. Where is the money to pay and sustain payment coming from if we do not fix the economy minimally for starters? I have observed through the years how Labour seeks minimum wage review but demur serially at calling into account those who misgoverned Nigeria to the sorry pass we are today.

But there is money to maintain the politicians and there lavish lifestyles

That's why we call for a restructure.
