afrodoc: but it was valencia that replaced rafael at RB not smalling/jones.
the more crucial change was fellaini for cleverley in midfield. our passing and movement in midfield became as clumsy as a teenage boy's first time
the same cleverley that people criticise here?

how's valencia a better RB than fabio? we lose a great deal of attacking impetus when we play any other player than the twins at RB.

Purist: David Moyes on the subs: "We were forced to make 3 changes at half-time. Evans (back), Rafael (ankle), Cleverley (double-vision)."
if the injuries had happened after we have made all our 3 changes, would moyes have pulled off 3 players during a match?

we are so ordinary when we don't have rafael in the RB position. when rafael is not playing, fabio should be replacing him. smalling/jones don't make the cut!!

Purist: I don't get the Moyes criticism. It seems peeps here have grown accustomed to blaming Moyes just for the sake of it. The subs were forced. Consequently, the team's flow was disrupted in the second half. Besides, it was quite a common even under SAF for United to take their foot off the gas after leading by a wide margin in the first half.
that's why i said it was moyes' fault coupled with our general laziness. we don't punish teams at all. had the ref sent off 4 fulham players, the score would still have remained 3-1 or even 3-2. we are the laziest team in the league.

dayokanu: [size=14pt]Meanwhile we saw how Torres was beasting all through the match today

Abi are we waiting for another 4months to post another

"Torres is back"[/size]
chelsea didn't create a single chance for torres while he was on the pitch. the passes were horrible - but then when you have fatsos like lampard on the pitch, what do you expect?

jose also goofed - hazard should have been taken off when he did his ankle. he wasn't himself again after that incident. newcastle defended well at times but chelsea created nothing until the last 5 mins.

chamotex: That second half was a horror show...if we play like that against Arsenal, we will get mauled.
moyes caused that - too many changes at half time that disrupted the flow coupled with our general laziness once we get our noses in the front.

Purist: De Gea denied a clean sheet yet again. I suppose Coogar will have a lot to say about that. cheesy
what do you expect? when you have a brainless forward like rooney blocking from 20 yards in what looked like a straight shot to de gea, then you have to question his wages.

it was the same thing nasri got crucified for in the manchester derby last season. rooney practically scored that goal for fulham. when are we going to get rid of this poisonous element from old trafford?

debosky: And peeps will be insulting Rooney? Scoring in each game, providing assists. . . .when will y'all admit it's a personal vendetta not a performance issue?
goal made by RVP - a simple tap in into an empty net. my granny would have scored from there. there's no personal vendetta against rooney - he's the only one in the squad that knocked fergie's door & demanded to be transferred. why shouldn't we question his commitment? are you silly?

SailorXY: Cleverley should not be starting league & UCL games in Manchester United! If he's considered good enough, why does Anderson & Kagawa *before now* always grace the bench?
What exactly is Cleverley's selling point undecided
cleverley is our 2nd best midfielder.....i would put him slightly ahead of anderson cos he's not injury-prone like the brazilian. cleverley makes things happen - passing accuracy, off the ball movements, etc.

StarBoard: Yes but under JM Chelsea look formidable. Any kind of lead by them is a deficit.
the same chelsea that lost to everton? come on - they are nowhere near formidable.....no team has been asides arsenal & maybe liverpool but we all know those 2 cannot last the distance. it's a long hard winter ahead, boys would soon get separated from the men.

vivianc: Honestly, no one is perfect. What she does is what 92% of ladies, especially in Nigeria do, even tho there is no justification whatsoever for that, but that's the hard truth. So there is every possibility that the next girl you meet might have being through this phase.

She should have stopped when a very serious guy got into her life, but she didn't. The "no one is perfect" cliche is not applicable to her, the truth of the matter is she is not ready for a committed relationship.

One more thing, most times you have to look beyond the sparkling of a jewelry to realise its fake.

StarBoard: Except thatChelsea and Liverpool will over take arsenal at the top of the log if that scenario plays out.
More solid opposition, if you ask me.
but arsenal are currently in the pole position - they are the reason we are 8 points adrift the top, it's nothing to do with chelsea/liverpool. regardless of what those ones play, we won't be less than 8 points away from them as long as we win our next 2 games
Christianity Etc › Re: Why Wouldn't You Marry A Sister From Your Church? by coogar: 10:30pm On Nov 01, 2013
DailyNews: The fear of getting a NO from someone they will be seeing so often. Imagine if he builds up courage and walks up to a sister he had been admiring in the church, and unfortunately, the sister says: NO! I am taken, occupied, not ready now, etc.

The guy will never be able to cope with the shame, especially when he will be seeing the sister in church always.

You know, after many stories and experiences shared by different guys of how they got turned down or snubbed by some rude and manner-less ladies they cherished and wished to love and marry, guys of nowadays have learnt to keep quiet even when they cherish a lady, most responsible guys always keep that admiration to themselves, most times forever.

Not all guys can handle rejection from a lady they cherish and have fantasize a good future with, hence, many responsible guys in general have withdrew from wooing and and toasting women.

That's the sad situation right now. I know plenty guys in this shoe.
i thought church girls are easier to get as long as they know the brother is dedicated & lives a holy life. you mean those scarf-tying, beret-wearing single women still say no to the advances of church brethren?

wow!!!

favouryemmy: The entertainment industry is dulling our inteligence
The Nigerian entertainment industry, as well as the Nigerian government and society, is greatly contributing to the falling standard of education in Nigeria.
Children, just like adults, over the years, believe in the printed and electronic media and they copy, or hold so dear, whatever they see or hear on TV and read in newspapers.
Before now, entertainers like Zebrudaya Okeke alias 4:30,
Jaguar, etc enlivened the industry and provoked laughter, while infesting the learning environment with wrong grammatical expressions, sounds and idioms.
For example, “More grease to your elbow” is a bastardised version of “More power to your elbow”; “Cut your coat according to your size” instead of “Cut your coat according to your cloth”; “Action speak louder than voice” instead of “Actions speak louder than words”; “The devil you know is better than the angel you don’t know” instead of “Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t”; and “Half bread is better than none” instead of “Half a loaf is better than no bread.”
These are a few examples of English expressions that have been bastardised as a result of our contact with the
entertainment industry.
From the music industry, entertainers such as Olamide,
Whizkid have changed the mindset of many young Nigerians, infusing slangs – which students remember quicker than a teacher’s teaching or formals – into their songs. Such spirit kills the quality of teaching and learning.
The worst of these people in this century is Funke Akindele. She rose to stardom by her clownish behaviour and expressions. Such expressions and utterances are, in fact, killing the quality of education in Nigeria. In her movie, The Hero, Funke’s grammar was so bad that it made watching the movie very tiresome for the learned and highly lettered ones.
No one in their sane mind would sit and watch Funke’s recent movies and feel that they are watching a good movie – except if they are of the same background as Funke.
She says: “Who is you?” instead of Who are you?; “I am
deading” rather than I am dying; “This womens” – These
women; “Let me told you” – Let me tell you; “Foice” – Voice; “Shindren” – Children; “Sow” – Show, etc.
Such comic but deadly statements are condemnable.
Such laughter provoking but academically killing grammar should be extirpated completely if Funke must make sense to million of people like me. Funke can still make her millions while speaking normal. This melodramatic and bastardised grammar is only killing our youth who watch a lot of home videos. It does not build them. And woe is he who pleases
himself while giving a painless death to other people.
Every lover of success for tomorrow’s leaders should stand up and speak against the grammar abuse by our entertainers.
Although one may not blame them completely, for they are speaking to the best of their knowledge, it is expedient for them to know that a million people rely on their spoken grammar.
Entertainers such as Genevieve Nnaji, Pete Edochie and Ini Edo, made a name for themselves without abusing the rules of grammar usage.
Such grammar abuse, in my view, is a naked sign of half
education.

daniel odih is a consummate rëtard....
funke akindele does comedy - and that's what you would expect in her movies. zebrudaya, samanja, papa aluwe, etc have all used this mode to make their audience laugh, how's funke different? in the movies where she's played a more serious character, she's eloquent!

this fool wants to blame entertainers for the poor standard of english in nigeria & he failed to mention patience goodluck(the mother of verbal scud missiles). daniel odih deserves to be sectioned in a mental health hospital.

if men are ruled by emotions, fitz won't be cheating on the first lady openly. for men, what they see near them is their flavour of the month. you really think fitz will be making round trips to the west coast if olivia were to move there?

Seriously, the way they're making the movie look like, it's like those 2 ain't supposed to be able to do without each other.
yes - that's fiction.
in the real world, mellie would have sent hired guns after olivia to damage her patella.

of course it can be helped. fitz is married, olivia should stay away from the white house & move to hollywood! she can easily be a fixer for many of the braindead bimbos in hollywood & get well-paid for it.
