StarBoard: . . .it's funny how the Bebe guy never seems to go away.
The guy's name sounds like the reflection of the player himself-DUD.

Please let's not bring coogar into this abeg. . .there has been relative peace and tranquility (aside from that creation of in.cest called 1025). . .
coogar will tell us that Bebe has scored in the Champions League. . .

bebe posted better goal scoring stats in the season he was with us than most
strikers in the division. bebe's class if you consider how shortly it took him to
score his debut goal for united.

debosky: Y'all should stop hating jor. . . Bebe is class.

Coogar don't you agree?

i agree 100%

ritchboy: Gerrard was England's best player and proved he can still play CM when required, AT BOTH ENDS OF THE FIELD, and Ibime is still yarning megedefegede about where his assists came from.

no!
gerrard wasn't england's best player in the tourney.
at least, one of the defenders or even joe hart were better. remove the set pieces and when he drifted to the wing
to put in crosses, then you are struggling to point anything meaningful he did in the 4 games he played.

gerrard cannot play as a cm....his ineptitude caused england's loss and to think an ageing pirlo played him
off the park speaks volume. i do not think lampard
would have done better as well---the 2 dinosaurs are
past their expiry dates and should not be mentioned
in the same breath with world class midfield maestros.

Richvkunt: I recently witnessed something that shocked me and made me wonder what has happened to the foundation of the family,if a couple of grown up kids could gang up and kick their aged father out of his own house?

The father in this real life story,had struggled all his life to train these four kids up to university level.
He had recently retired as a lower cadre civil servant,in one of the Federal ministries in the country.

In the course of his career as a civil servant he had managed to save up enough money to build a medium level bungalow,where he,his wife and four kids lived.

Now in his retirement,when he should be enjoying the fruit of his labour,his four grown up children and their mother ganged up to kick him out of his house,into the streets.WHY?

Well the reason according to the children,is that the their father recently collected his gratuity money and decided their mother was too old for him and therefore decided to bring in a younger woman as a wife to keep him warm in his old age.The children kicked against this and told their father that he could marry his new sweet sixteen OUTSIDE the house he built,meaning he had to rent a house outside where the new wife would stay.
The father agreed to these terms and conditions and everyone was living happily ever after until the mother of these four grown up kids contracted a strange sickness that almost turned her in to a lunatic who began mumbling and talking to herself.

The drama began,when these four kids who are university graduates decided to take their mother to a herbalist,instead of a psychiatric hospital.
The herbalist informed the stunned children that the cause of their mothers strange illness was their fathers new wife and that through their father the young wife had apparently planted some juju in the house that was affecting the mother and driving her mad.The children were up in arms and without consulting any elders confronted their father over the allegation of the herbalist.The father denied this accusation and insisted on the old wife being taken to a hospital for proper treatment.The children were having none of this and would not allow their father touch his wife.

Anyway last weekend all hell was let lose in the household when the four grown up children kicked their father out of his house,clothes,shoes,books and mattresses were flying through the air,till they rested in an untidy heap outside the house.

Finally the man himself was physically rough handled and pushed out of the house.
All pleas from neighbours for restraint fell on deaf ears.

Shocking situation:mother demented and living with a herbalist.Father thrown out of the house,into the streets.Grown up kids in the house refusing to take their mum for proper medical care.Young wife living in fear for her life.

What is the family turning into?

this is the funniest story ever - what a wimp of a man...thrown out of your own house
by your own unruly kids. the man is at fault because he went out to buy trouble that
made his own wife a lunatic, he deserves to be thrown out. minus the mum going loco,
the man has every right to marry a 1st, 2nd and 25th wife if he so wishes.

Chuks0485: Am the first in my family and it is customary in my area that whoever that wants to marry my younger sister will formally tell not only my parent but also me, and its normal to ask d guy some questions in order to know him better and ensure that my younger one isnt going into the wrong hand. Questions lik'what do u do 4 a living?','wer do u live?',hope u truely luv her?', etc. Its nt as if am d 1 to choose who will marry my sister. Hope u got what i mean? So any advice?

where is this area?
you're a guy? oh dear.....

just take the dude for a drink and arrange it in such
a way that would make it look like you're meeting a
new friend. the boyfriend should say what you want
to know about him.... just don't make it look like
you're quizzing him. it's tacky!

r231: Hahahahaha

I am just helping the guy out

i understand....
what i am saying is the questions should be
directed to the sister not the romeo...he's
only answerable to the parents of the bride..
not any yeye egomaniac sister.

Odunnu: Honey, this is Africa!

explains why africa is the most backward
continent in the solar system.

r231: General interview questions

What he does,
What plan does he have for your sister
Ask about his family
Education and so on

Finally ask he if drinks and both of you can go for a drink sometime or maybe that's just me sha

Goodluck

i just wanna know what these questions would achieve.....
girlfriend has made up her mind to marry the dude, whatever
the sister thinks from here does not affect the price of fish!

Odunnu: Its part of culture my dear

you mean you would have me take an oral interview cos i am marrying
your sister? to what end? i could lie my way out of it preaching
i love your sister more than life itself....and i own the half of
port harcourt. in my opinion, i think the culture encourages our
men to lie.

Chuks0485: A guy that wants 2 marry my sister is about to meet me so as to tell me that he wants to marry my immediate younger sister(he is meeting me because am d 1st born n a guy),what mature question(s) should i ask him?

meeting you cos you are the first child?
please explain further....

debosky: Yes RvP said 90% of what fans want, but he went beyond that and insulted the club. I don't care how good he is, anyone who insults Arsenal in such a public way should never wear the red and white again.

Let Ox, JW and others think what they may - if they want to leave, you can't stop them. What you can demonstrate is that no one insults the club. That is a matter of principle. Cesc disagreed with Wenger too, but kept his gob shut and left comporting himself with decency.

Sell him - he should never play for us again, but don't sell to Citeh if you can avoid it. Juventus would be ideal for me.

In other news Edumare be praised that Kalou has signed for Lille. . . . Wenger was planning to replace RvP with the Ivorian wonder boy

he hasn't insulted arsenal but gooners should not fret either....just pretend van persie
got his perennial season-long injury again and it's easy to forget he exists.......i can
understand why he wants to leave and i can also understand the feelings of the fans who
feel arsenal stood by him when he couldn't score more than a dozen league goals in a season.

there's no striker greater than the club, the departures of henry and ruud from the premier
league looked like the world would end but the clubs still remain and the players are now
only in the history books. wenger should sell now before pre-season, make a punt for edin
dzeko or any of the less-favoured strikers whose clubs are itching to sell. much ado about
nothing, abeg!

maclatunji: She says:

Married 4 while now and my hubby is cheating on me.... Not just physical... Even on facebook... Tell ladies how he love them how his married is so mistake just to get under their pant, their is this lady now his getting too involve with and the lady knows me but don't care.... From what I read on his profile... What do I do...

the lady knows you as the wifey but she doesn't care?

Ibime: Case in point: Torres did not contribute anything to Spain's Euro title win. Or is it against Ireland or 20 minutes to go against a 2-0 down and 10-men Italy that the title was won?

Torres had ZERO contribution to Spain's title. . . .the coach Del Bosque knows it and thats why he refused to play him in any tight decisive game, and his one attempt to do so against Croatia produced a cuarenta y cinco minutos horribilis that precipitated Torres' withdrawal after half-time.

this is the most idiotic comment in the history of nairaland.
so torres contributed zero to spain's title but he won the golden
boot? i am sure if they open your brain, they would find fluff inside it.

HNIC: Just wondering why Fergie is very angry that Pogba left
For me, I just think once players have refused to sign the new contract on the table, there is a 90% chance that they are on their way out.

where did you read fergie was angry? were you at old
trafford to see fergie venting any anger? na wa o!

ogbeche77: And Pogba final leaves for Juventus

pogba can [color=#000000]f[/color]uck off...

montelik: http://thinkfootball.co.uk/a-statistical-and-tactical-look-at-how-good-wayne-rooney-is/
Every time I remember we are paying him £250k, I shake my head.

the author of that article is a complete ninny!
anyone assessing wayne rooney purely on goals is a Arrow as rooney
as only lead the attacking line once in his many seasons at united.

in 04/05 and 05/06, it was van nistelrooy leading the line with
rooney playing just behind him. in 06/07, saha took over from ruud
with rooney playing just behind.

in 07/08, it was the holy trinity with ronaldo playing the central
position and tevez/rooney flanking him. in 08/09, berbatov joined
the frame and rooney simply operated from the left hand side of the attack.

09/10 was the only season rooney played as a centre forward....
in 10/11, it was rooney's injury, greed and lack of match fitness that
ruined his stats in the first half of that season..in the 2nd half, he did well.

last season, welbeck led the line with rooney operating just behind him at times.
in some other games, it was a flat 4-4-2 with 2 strike partners in rooney n
welbeck. so anyone thinking rooney would match etoo, drogba, etc as far as scoring
goals is concerned needs his brains examined!

he's more than a pure goal scorer....his assists are equally important!

debosky: @ Coogar
Same advice as I've given others. . . .don't feed the troll.

some trolls should be ignored but there are some trolls who just
don't know they drag their family name in the mud with the amount
of piffle they spew.

1025 belongs to the latter category - necessary action should be taken
against him. don't worry - he is not even that smart to know when he's
being insulted! he's a twit!

dayokanu: Surely you were expected to bring some meaningless stats and you didnt dissappoint.

because statistics are facts - sometimes its what the [color=#000000]n[/color]aked eye often
fail to detect. how can a player who posted 97% pass completion be average?

Everyone watching the game saw Xavi and he was distinctly average. the same pass completion Arsenal fans used to throw around for Denilson?

distinctly average? probably because it's what you wanted to see.
the xavi i saw was dangerous....hardly gave the ball away and he
made the highest number of key passes on the pitch. with villa on
the pitch, those were potential 3 goal assists!

The game still even and on the edge yet Xavi was subbed out

at 32, the exertions were becoming too much for xavi
they had fewer days to prepare for the game than portugal.
comparing the pass completion of an attack minded xavi to
a defensive midfielder like denilson already shows you are
a numbskull. the bulk of denilson's passes were backward
n square. the bulk of xavi's passes go to his strikers....

dayokanu, I know you are still suffering from the
post traumatic euro2012 stress after italy sodomised
your inferior team. balotelli of the premier league sunk
the germans......

dayokanu: Who was benching Mata? Xavi and Iniesta.

if he's good enough, he should start!
he just won the champions league, mata!

Who was benching Fernandud? Either fabregas or Negredo i laff in Gorimapa

torres played more minutes than negredo!
del bosque doesn't even care about strikers---all he wanted
was to control the ball and control the game...all the players
in the starting 11 are pure goalscorers...

Sagamite: What weak people want is irrelevant to footballing prowess.
Fathers and mothers should be ambassadors and role models their respective wards

the kids without parents nko? who would guide those in that category?
besides, the role model thingy really applies to kids who aspire to become
professional footballers in the future. they watch balotelli or joey barton
and they nurse the ambition to be like them: unruly, ornery and utter [color=#000000]w[/color]ankers!

Footballers are entertainers and they should owe you nothing apart from seeing a good game and not breaking the law or rules of the game on the pitch.

i agree they are entertainers but the time of the day they often choose to entertain coincides with
when most kids are watching. how happy would you be If you take your 5-yr old son to watch a
game of football and balotelli starts swearing or beating a player of the other team?

If I was a footballer, I would do whatever the fck I want to do that does not affect my game.
I will sleep with every money-grabbing bimbo that comes my way an be on the tabloid front pages without apology to any lame parent depending on me to be their child's role model.

then you wouldnt be a footballer.....
a part of their contract with their club requires them to represent the club
in a respectable manner that would not bring down the dignity of the
club or bad press!

Oh, God! How I miss my role model, Eddie Irvine. He did not owe me role modelship, but he involuntarily was.
Fck other people's rules on how I should live my life and they will never intimidate me to change it. The pure philosophy of Eddie.
Eddie, you were great men! I admire you alot.
People should raise their kids and shouldn't pass the responsibility of role model to people that did not apply for the role.

we live in a broken society....the responsibility to raise these kids should be collective.
football players are now celebrities and what they offer has no pg-rating so it''s imperative
these players conduct themselves appropriately on the pitch. the more gentlemanly
they behave, the more attractive the package becomes!

1025: @andrew,
u lack information and i think u are suffering from individual/personal hype like that manure/england attack line.
if that trash(coogar) is saying rooney played only two games, can i ask u and him, how many games did rooney play at sa2010? how many games in all did torres play in euro. good players are good players.

yet another heap of farticles from the brain-dead chidi!
i am not even sure you have brain cells - what you have
up there are [color=#000000]s[/color]perm cells!

how many goals did torres score at the world cup and in
the premier league all season? you are the [color=#000000]s[/color]permhead
your mama shoulda swallowed!

mata that scored against italy, how many matches did he play? how long does it take to score a goal?
gutter reasoning is just the problems of both of u. are u saying that if howard webb was to be the ref in the england games, rooney would not have scored 10 goals?
both of u are using monkey brains and as such lack human reasoning abilities.

this lout has just proven some animals are indeed smarter than some humans.
following your idiotic logic, torres and mata are better than messi then!
there's no hope for you - i am quite certain that when you eventually kick the
bucket, your autopsy would read death via [color=#000000]s[/color]tupidity

dayokanu: In the important games the dud was benched until when victory was assured before they brought him in.

Scoring against a demoralised Italy down to 10men is what the dud could achieve? where was he in the key games vs Italy, France and Portugal

mata & llorente must be duds then....
what a [color=#000000]s[/color]tupid way of analysing footie!
if mata was from any of the other countries in the
tournament, he would be a guaranteed starter!

dayokanu: So that Xavi played a good game vs Italy meant he didnt perform average vs Portugal?

What a blunt tool

you're a troglodyte....
how was xavi average against portugal? 97% pass completion
and 3 key passes that the other players failed to score.
mention any german player with 97% pass completion
in the history of association football!

Ibime: Tores would never succeed with Chelsea. Last night showed why.

So it is after a bedraggled, dispirited and numerically disadvantaged Italy opened up gaping holes that you are coming to celebrate?

Chelsea fans dont need a man who shows up when the going is easy, we need a ninja who is a difference maker when the going is tough and space on the pitch is at a premium.

Who should we trust - (a.) the stat thats says Torres won golden boot with a paltry 3 goals or (b.) the stat that says his manager had no trust in him whatsoever throughout the tournament, trusting him only with a starting berth against the decrepit Irish and taking him off shortly after half-time against Croatia.

Torres can never flourish when there is no space cos he lacks the physicality or football sense to make a difference. Last night even showed why.

Despite scoring, Torres was giving the ball away like no man's business with some stupid attempted dribbles where defenders just barged him off the ball.

It just reminded me of the numerous times he gives the ball away cheaply for Chelsea. The dude is careless in possession. Pass simple ball, bros want dribble, and only 1 out of 3 of his dribbles come off.

you talk too much nonsense to be taken seriously......torres can
never succeed at chelsea because chelsea players are lethargic,
lacks any football intelligence and most of them play for themselves
and not the team. if torres could succeed at liverpool, i see no
reason why chelsea cannot build the team around him to flourish.

paltry 3 goals? you're a disgrace! how come ronaldo, gomez,
balotelli, di natale, benzema, etc couldn't score more than 3?
when nando came on, he only failed to complete one pass so
your claim about him giving the ball away is farcical!

dayokanu: A striker that can not be trusted by his manager in top games should now be trusted by Chelsea for the season?

The vital CL games he did not start

In Euro cup top games Vs Italy, Portugal, France he was benched and he managed to score vs Ireland the worst team of the tournament and an Italian team who was demoralised and a man down?

Winning the top scorer like Oleg Salenko did scoring bucketful vs a decrepit Cameroun is what we are celebrating here?

Nigga Pleaseeeee

you're a tool.....
what does it matter if he didn't start many games? if you have any
common sense then you should know you are arguing for him. torres
had the best goals/min ratio in the competition. if it was gomez or the idiotic
podolski that clinched the golden boot, your euphoria woulda needed a
medical injection to calm you down!

Sagamite: This part of their criteria is rubbish!

Humility should not be part of their judgement of footballing prowess.

They should keep their moral values to themselves and judge people on their ability.

If Balotelli wants to take his shirt off and show his muscle after scoring his 15th Banana shot goal in a tournament, then he should win based on his contribution and ability, and humility can go to hell.

but football players are meant to be ambassadors and role models....
football authorities want the players to epitomise humility, respect, etc.
therefore, uefa is correct by wanting players to be gentlemen on and off
the pitch.

kids watch tv and they want to be like these players...
on the flip side, football players get more severe
punishment when they err because they are supposed to be role models.

1025: @coogar,
it take one retard to find out another. you are the retard of the millenium. what happened to ur manure ronney? na chelsea do am? na manure players release torres the day he destroyed that team that brings high fever to manure.am talking about barca. chelsea is not about torres but about winning mentality. whatsoever we did,whosoever we played or dropped. whatsoever pattern that gave us the fa and ucl trophies are the best of chelsea. go home and sort ur trophiless season.if you don't watch it, manure are going the ways of arsenal.

so after 36 yrs, the goat that urinated on your head hasn't been found?
it would be a shame to mental handicaps if i put you in the same class cos your case
is worse....so rooney that played only 2 games in the euros is expected to match other
strikers who played 5 or 6 games in the tourney? you're better off dead...you are wasting
the cells and tissues God bestowed you.

oloshious fellow!

chic2pimp: Mental and Physical exhaustion finally took it's toll on the Azzuri
They gave it their all but came up short against possibly the best side in History.
Xavi,Iniesta absolutely Legends....Completely dominated the midfield.
Where as we had only Pirlo they had about 4 great passing midfielders in the side.
That difference in quality told in the end.


Still......FORZA AZURRI!!!!

it was never in doubt.....only fools like dayokanu and that neophyte called
bontee were doubters. the brand of football spain play surpasses whatever any
team can display. they hug possession so much they give you little time to do
something with the ball. you can only beat spain if you score every chance you
get against them in the 21% possession they would let you have. the last time
they conceded a goal in knock-out stage was in 2006 when zidane sank them.
yes, they are that glorious - clean sheet of 1000 mins in the k.o. stage!

didn't dayokanu say xavi was finished?

debosky: Torres just made a phool out of DK at this tournament - golden boot and scoring in two consecutive finals.

Go-miss will never achieve that in his lifetime.

maybe now the charlatans on this thread would take me serious when i say
torres is no dud. chelsea made him flop with their lethargic build-up play
and the midfielders not releasing torres with quick passing....

xavi was finding him quickly to put torres one v one with the goalkeeper...
torres has now scored in the final of euro 2008 and 2012, won the highest
golden boot of the tournament with fewer minutes than his counterparts.

fa cup winner
champions league winner
european championship winner
european championship golden boot winner

el nino to win the ballon d'or
with all due respect, ibime + dayokanu + bluediva + ritchboy are the biggest
[color=#000000]r[/color]etards this forum has ever produced.

AjanleKoko: Interesting that Gerard Pique, a Manchester United reject, has won every single title at club and country level, and has been in the FIFA Eleven.
Very interesting indeed.

he won 2 league titles and the uefa champs league with man utd!
pique wasn't a reject but with rio and vidic ahead of him 2008
circa, few defenders in the world could displace those two then.+

AjanleKoko: ^^^
LOL.
Or maybe United can try to get Pirlo, Italy's standout midfielder. They are sorely lacking in the creative department right now.

scholes is better than pirlo but sadly, england and it's fierce club rivalry would not
allow the manager to coax someone like scholes outta retirement............
they so much believe in picking players from 12 teams to make the national team
whereas countries that are serious with football pick the bulk of the players from
the 2 top teams.

RuuDie: I don't believe these "reports" - but whoever was responsible out there should never have stopped Alves; they outta have known that such a move could be potentially very disorienting for any player!

oh please....let's stop making silly excuses.
people tend to over-analyse simple incident...
nani scored his penalty, what stopped alves from scoring his?

so because he was called back affected his confidence? then he
has no business playing for his national team. how difficult
is it scoring from 12 yards?

RuuDie: What kind of player goes and takes the ball off his team-mate at such a crucial time. . .!?

Nani had better not come and try that s**t in any UTD game

reports are saying bruno alves jumped the gun...nani was the 3rd player
on the list the manager gave the referee...
