Is Ole the problem or the players?

elrony:
Wait, na ACL Pogba get?...

The injury no dey heal finish ni?

Mesef don ask that question?

Pogba wan feign injury till January then run away

so far the plan is holding up.

The very reason why we would continue to be in reverse gear.

eph12:
There are many things wrong with the team, this is one of them. Ole is either too stubborn or a dunce

I am tempted to go with the 2.

izzou:
I tire for the argument sef

Shelvey's goal was from the setpiece that was passed to him.

I wonder how retaining anyone would have stopped that

I was happy for that goal

I remember when we lost about 6 -0 or so to city. Where Fergie and the players kept on attacking till the final whistle. A whole SAF lost scandalously. Did he not know who to play or sub to curb that massacre?

patrickmuf:
If it was Liverpool vs City, it's understandable but not against Newcastle United...Tue quality of the opposition not necessarily the sub, get?

Guy the truth is this argument is neither here nor there.

A coach can do that sub and still concede regardless of the opposition. If not we woukd never have an upset. This is football.

How convenient to say.

I don't expect thieves to ask for thieves when caught, to be sent to death by firing squad.


That is the one thing we need as punitive measure to curb the level of corruption that has embraced our country.

Corruption and murder deserve death sentence in this country as it stands.

nitrogen:
This one is different o, Mou will definitely try to beat us black and blue. As for City? well, we know how easy it is to play against them.

I am not saying we would definitely win. I am just saying its football anything can happen.

We almost broke Liverpool's unbeaten run this season. We were quite impressed with our game that day cause a good number of us were expecting some form of pummeling

Let's relax. Our unpredictability is what made me say we could lose against villa and do the unthinkable against spurs and city.

I know mourinho is licking his lips now.

patrickmuf:
For a team not used to being on the back foot, that move is always a dumb move.

Dumb move you say because it did not work.

There are times the same type of sub has been done and it paid off.

Make we calm down abeg.

macjireh:
I trust mourinho

The good book says trust no man

macjireh:
In ur wildest dreams....manu can't beat spurs home or away

Stop talking from your dream. This is fiitball, anything can happen.

He

ChristoBam:
If we fail to beat Aston Villa, we're done for. Cuz we have Spurs and City next, both in the space of one week.

We might just lose to villa and beat spurs and city

Lana1:
If we no go back in for Fernanades in January, then na better thunder go fire Woodward and OGS

ChristoBam:
He signed a new deal last week. He now has a release clause of 100m.

They are relaxed now waiting for us to make the move

Oshiomhole looks like a vindictive person. He would be humble for now but once he gets his way his real arrogant self will come out again.

Just like the famous "Go and die" rant, he humbly went to appease the woman and had tea with her just because of election. That's the way of our politicians.

Edo people no send am at all. Trying to go gangster like what Bello did in kogi might be a little tricky in Edo state.

patrickmuf:
Fact...Gomes is a CAM And I think Chong will do better on the left.

So why is the coach playing them out of their preferred positions?

It isn't fair that a player is naturally good in a position but is played out of that position and we say he has not taken his chance.

Sad!

aolawale025:
Will Nigeria survive to 2023??

Is that not about N9trillion?

Lawans hands are itching to slam that gavel. APPROVED!

What exactly is the loan for?

That we are supposed to endure these clueless selfish wicked daft clowns till that 2023 is scary.

Godairpus.

Lana1:
Lol. Lingard don finally score after almost a year.

Boy don find hin level

I told you he was among his mates.

obainojazz:
replace the dot with .

pharod:
Looks like Lingard will wear the armband tonight...

Inspirational

He is with his mates

Confusion breaky bone oo yeparipa.

Confused set of people. All their policies are geared towards removing the little money in the hands of the citizens. That's the only way they feel they can generate money.

Meanwhile, low taxes are a veritable way of improving an economy.

Buncha rettardedd confused selfish morons.

10thangel:
Other Federal Government agencies joined IPPIS and they still go on strike and fight for their rights. IPPIS does not stop ASUU from agitating for their rights. IPPIS is good for the country and will help to open up space for employment.

Agreed it would curb lecturers from receiving salaries from more than one place which is a good thing. And they will say how much they have saved in implementing it but again we will not see what the saved money would be used for.

Anyways, let's wait and see how it goes.

teepain:
Ideally, the union ought to fight and protect the rights of the lecturers but theunion has derailed from those aims and objectives.

These days, the union fights to promote pecuniary interests and to cover fraudulent practices of members.

How can any sane ASUU fight against the appointment of external auditor of the accounts of the university by the government claiming that they are autonomous and only the council can appoint auditors.

There are friends that I know who have left the shores of this country for 10 years (some for postdoc and other reasons) and above and they still get their salaries as lecturers of these universities. Mind you, some of them have fully relocated and just come around from time to time to maintain some form of presence.

You have your points and I totally agree with you. But like I said earlier a lot of things are wrong with Naija and trying to fix one side without looking at things holistically will only make our situations more complicated.

Yes the unions ought to fight for the lecturers and may have deviated. The same can be said about the govt, no?

How many times have the govt renaged on their agreements with ASUU? is that not also something we should consider in all this. With this now govt will totally be in control and ASUU will not be able yo fight for anything again and I have said that this forceful show of power that the govt is using will only make university education suffer even more.

How much is the budget for education in Nigeria. A country where the amount allocated to NASS is 3times bigger than education and health combined.
Let's wait and see.

lonelydora:
There are saboteurs in ASUU. They can't speak in one voice.

They are good sides of this IPPIS, but FG in this regime can't be trusted. I feel there is an ulterior motive by FG.

Its a pity. This will completely bring ASUU under the control/mercy of the govt. If ASUU call for strike, govt will just withhold salaries and strike go die. This will make the lecturers feel defeated because they would have nothing yo use to negotiate against govt. I just hope the little quality we have in our universities will not be totally lost.

Something in me dosent seem to agree with this ippis for lecturers. In normal climes it shouldn't be like that but Naija is not normal and these lecturers can be cunning.

Well we are in a totalitarian democracy now so anything goes.

Drama at the inter/Slavia game

VAR and ref done do the unthinkable.

I don't believe what I just saw now.

maybanks:
The President also denied it. He never said anybody was sacked. Its better you direct your grievances to the right quarters.

They denied it, the president also denied it. But they are complaining that they were sacked.

Please, remind me again, what were they denying?

And what are these supposed sacked aides complaining about now?

elrony:
Nobody will take Jones, he's useless (very unreliable)!!!

Smalling >>>>> Jones

And we let Smalling go on loan while we kept jones

Leyqute:
Obviously, the best team is the team with the best quality. However quality is not the only ingredient that determines success. Motivation and determination also counts.

United currently has a more quality squad than Leicester but the later are better motivated and are stronger mentally.

G. Neville was complaining bitterly about Utd’s senior players for their horrid performance against Sheffield the other day. he was very disappointed about their movement. The forward 3 didn’t force any errors against Sheffield.

’s not that they can’t score goals, it’s just that they seem disinterested in creating chances and scoring goa

If these players always puts in the hard work, make runs and disorganize defenses, the goals will come. For United, the problem is more about motivation and having the winning mentality, not just quality.

For the coach crew it’s the reverse. The quality is doubtful but the willingness to win is there.

Shalom

I agree with your write up.

What factors help motivate a player or team?

As players can't they motivate themselves so that the quality they claim to possess will come to the fore.

This comparison might not be right but I remember when we dey play set just for street bragging rights, person go nearly wan kill himself for field, but these ones that are paid armed robber wages and supposedly have quality can't motivate themselves enough. They are waiting for OGS to motivate them and inject winning mentality into their brains and legs with syringe.

This 4th world status would be an achievement for this government.

They continue to impoverish the people so that they can bribe, threaten physically and psychologically disarm them during elections so as yo continue to perpetrate themselves in power.

We want to create new category to classify Nigeria.

macjireh:
maybe one day Brendan Rogers will manage manU

Then we go see how far.

Just like how SAF/management felt if Moyes could motivate/inspire united players half as he did everton. Man u will be a piece of cake with him at the helm.

It is hard to just pin our performances to only the coach or only the players.

Naive coach + lazy players = Man u
