We know how 2027 will be no worry

It will self destruct from inside

The current insiders will have loads of evidence to act like saints and patriots

They'll fly a new flag and party and try to do like they care much about Nigeria. They'll even be convincing to many.

The system is also deliberately making this happen. It's not coincidentally. Aside personal issues, many countries see population as a problem and are tightening the noose for family creations. Birth rates are declining and nobody sees a union as an advantage again.

Plan to make Amas #1?

Okay, I know it is one game but Amas Obasogie dont look like #1 material to me. Beaten too easily for that 2nd goal despite the possibility of an offside.

We still need GK Upgrades Post-Afcon.
Uzoho not Amas.

The way they berated Amas like asif Uzoho hasn't done worse.

Im seeing some journalists hyping ad pushing him, while exaggerating the debut of Amas in this warm up. The plan is to make him be the no1 between the sticks.

You see you write up here is everything I don't like about how we analyse things as fans. You gathered all the biases and sentiments into one post.

You're comparing Havertz and Gyokeres but instead of looking at their output you're pointing at everything you can hold to exonerate Gyokeres while pointing at everything that doesn't matter to vilify Havertz.

This isn't about Havertz Vs Gyokeres, it's YOU and your CONSCIENCE

You feel emotionally disappointed and you are trying to prove your way out. My brother free yourself with humility and simply say you were wrong about Havertz. It won't harm you.
Spy, thanks for the therapist assessment,but no thanks. But like that season, last season and this current one, i maintain my stance about Kai. Don't play this childish game with me snd try to make it be like it's because one is feeling guilty. That's preposterous and hilarious 😂
Guilty? Ontop Kai? Aspa he be Auba or Lacazette? Abeg abeg abeggg. Wrong about a real 9 vs a false 9?!
How convenient for you to go down this route.

Please let's make it clear that I have no issues at all with Gyokeres performance. That's because I expected it. Even Arteta did, when he warned him of not losing his head if he doesn't score for many games.

Those that are feeling bad about Gyokeres are those who attacked Havertz for the same reasons. Just that in attacking Havertz they roped themselves by demanding for a striker that scores goals without realising that any one going to play CF for Arsenal will not be prolific because of the demands of that role.

So I am here to stop any agenda from those fans to blame other players for his lack of goals. Imagine that nonsense.
I get you but difference dey. The Kai comparison no gel. Kai was fed so bad yet the net didn't shake. Sotey his teammates noticed a dip in confidence and had to help open the floodgates with a pk(Odegaard took the ball from Saka and gave Kai).
That's what helped that year.
Prior to coming, he's not even a prolific forward compared to Gyo last season before arriving(compare their last season at previous clubs be crossing over)

What made the Kai own was the chances were created and he was wasting many. Many. No mincing words. Despite this, coach still found a way to always play him. He's not even doing same with Gyokores right now. Diff dey seh!! 😅😂😂

From LW to middle to CF to False 9 to Merino role, he kept switching him every game cos he wanted him to click so bad. Can't forget that.

He isn't a trad 9 or top 9 so the way analysis will go will definitely be different. Pep still changed his system to accommodate Haaland o. This is Arteta's Master o. And see how he's always with 45% of total goals and that doesn't diminish his team cos if Haaland is unavailable, they'll just switch fast to the other style. Goals still spread wella. Even Rodri once said that Haaland made lots of things easy for City. He can score and they'll play the Pep way after and fluidity still exist even if opponents score(major difference between city and arsenal)

Before the arsenal we know create loads of chances for players like welbeck, giroud and sirnogoal
Imagine gyokeres getting 1/4 of those chances house go dan full
Na that odegaard they vex me with his one dimension play, he can't look up to pass only saka
See ehn. The sleekness of the 2022 season no dey again. That thing muzz me. We'll be fine sha.


These fixtures of last season that cause breakfast....
Our next 6 fixtures.
What are we going to do different? We need early shot and early goals. This goalless 1st half is exasperating.

They know this
That's why I concluded we are not creating enough chances
For now, na our MCM. Lol. They should goan watch how teammates pick out Osimhen in Galatasaray and how he in return pressing like say he be Senior brother to Rice in Lungs Family. I even preferred Osimhen to Gyokores. Many will rem i kept repeating the we must buy one Victor during the Transfer window.

A man city friend of mine that watched our game cos he wanted us to lose said this same issue. A Chelsea padi said same too. Rivals o.

If Gyokores was some 10goals a season guy now, we for even mellow. But last season this was europe's best 9 o.
Whatever side anyone wants to stay on, na dem sha sabi. Because we're top doesn't mean we can't call out consistent problems.

How many services is enough before he will score a goal? Because I know that there were two or three occasions he was given the ball and couldn't even hold it

I also know one or two occasions Saka and Odegaard wanted to give him the ball but he was hiding behind a defender.

Perhaps the service you mean is for Odegaard, Eze or Saka to dribble everyone including the GK and pass the ball to Gyokeres to score into an empty net?

You can look for a way to defend your MCM but please don't blame it on anyone. It's the same team Merino scored 3 goals in 4 games when Gyokeres was injured.
I wish i was defending him. There's a lot of buzz interviews about this matter here and many from the wenger era are with my POV. Perhaps Gyokores is their MCM too. Latest is Ramsey.

Even rival fans are seeing this lack of play towards him.

I can beat my chest and say that this season, he's made spaces for every other of his teammates in the final 3rd than they finding him for a final touch. Bring a counter argument.

My conclusion is this is hibernation mode and he's going to get better, and this phase will pass. But don't come and pretend like im defending him blindly. Lol.

Coach even affirmed this stance o. But you're here throwing this cheap punch. Habaaaa!!!

Arteta's quote on Gyokeres after the game

“There's a collaboration between the two [Gyokeres and midfielders]. He was in a lot of really good positions and the ball didn't get into the area quick enough, sharp enough, or just with the precision that is required for a nine to score a goal. But his work and intentions were there and we need to keep insisting.”
Exactly. Before they say he's not doing his bit. Service needs to increase. Better days though. Me just wished they focus on him vs these small teams and use the grand approach vs big teams. Better days soon.

Torrrh. Denial can't continue again. manager has hinted that this 9 is indeed getting into place but service is poor and it's a work in progress. We meuve. E be like na pressure dey cause this acceptance of situation las las.

Going forward, if we want to get an attacker, that attacker must be bought early on so they can join preseason. Any other zone can come late.

Im glad everyone is talking out here and on X

Even Piers is pissed. iF this was a top 6 rival, the counter bants would suffice. But this is the worst team in epl. And they got a goal vs us?!! Naaaah.

Whatever Arteta plan was for this game, it failed woefully. It didn't work. It just didn't work. We have 6 easy fixtures coming up. Should we be concerned about potential drop of points like last season? Abeg o...


Imagine Tolu getting goal vs Raya. Eiiii. Some things are cringey abeg. But none is as cringey as us unable to score our own goal under 90mins and unable to get a shot on table after 35mins. This should not repeat again a bottom 8 team abeg

Kobojunkie:
Unless the children in question had sociopathic tendencies, they almost always reflect the conditions of their upbringing when they become adults back at those who raised them. Ask the children why they decided to cut contact with their parents, and you will hear the truth of what really happened from the insider's point of view. 🥱🥱🥱

The basic principle is that a parent who is emotionally, socially, and physically connected to the lives of the children, even into adulthood, will rarely ever be abandoned by them. However, parents who ignore every opportunity to bond with their children, even into adulthood, risk having those children go no contact with them even into old age. undecided
That's true. It's just not a one size fits all situation. Sometimes, na church dey help reconcile after some long term beef as well. And sometimes, different continents.

I know a family that all are abroad, the kids. They send in $ and £€ Monthly like Salary to their parents. But to show face na wahala. Na when their popc die, they show face. Gave him grand burial. Their mom was the one angry at all of them, narrating how their dad did this and that, etc.

As you said, sociopaths. We need to accept this demograph takes a chunk of the % on this table.

Mothers manipulation and gaslighting dey
Kids finding out truths and switching dey(Many mothers don't care about the fact that if kids find out the truth, their abandon them in old age due to resentment for selling them lies for decades of existence with confidence)

Overall, one needs to instill values that will make kids have good judgement and face these issues.

Imagine a lady is single and Prophet told her her mom is behind her predicament. She came back home from Norway and her mum was expecting her without even telling her she was coming. She narrated how she did some spiritual dark stuff over her daughter and that though she has good career and all, until she does some stuff, man no go look her side. Real story. Her uncle was aware. Dad is late. She went thru his diary and saw that her parents fought cos the mom did some decisions solo. That was it.

Welll.... This life ehn.

I notice on this subject, they do blame men for being absent or wicked, mean to their kids and then the kids revenge. It is not always so direct like that. FFA said

There are 3 seasons in your life as a parent:

When you direct and raise your kids-You're in charge.
When you aren't there-The kids are in charge of their own lives as school, career takes over
When you are there but-They're now in control of their lives and their parents' lives. Old Age takes over. What the kids say is mostly final if not all



Many forget this. Many do everything right but still end up unappreciated. Yeah. And some are due to manipulation from mothers, in laws or even religious beliefs. Of course there are truths to these. Just that I've seen many that despite all they did, they still suffer or are punished.


I've also seen mothers in this category. Kids all grown and she's left to suffer in old age due to one or two

Wrong argument.

The Bible actually predates the "white" man. That the Bible was translated into English and handed down to us doesn't make it a white man's invention. Also, the God of the Israelites, He is the God of gods, the King of kings and Lord of lords. The creator of the Universe. And say what you like, believe what you may, God is real. And like Righteousness stated, Jesus (God in human form - for with our God, nothing shall be impossible - Mark 10:27), one who saw it all right from the beginning and who has been in Heaven and has gone through the depths of Hell and back said. "Fear Him, who after killing the body hath the power to cast the soul in Hell"

"And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever" - Rev 20:10.

God does not desire that anyone should end up in Hell. That dreadful, horrible place was meant for the Devil and the demons.

I know it's a stretch for many people - this whole simple "believe and confess your sins and you will be saved" jingos, right? Sounds too easy to be what one needs to do to be saved. But it is what it is.

And yes, the 5-yead old example you stated is exactly the type of people God wants - apt. I believe God doesn't want to complicate things.
"and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. - Matt 18:3
You've done justice to the question. Weldone!!

Burning you for what?

Well this is what the Bible God feel about tormenting living people?


They have built the high places of Topheth in the Valley of Ben Hinnom to burn their sons and daughters in the fire—something I did not command, nor did it enter my mind. ‭Jeremiah 7:31 NIV‬

This is wrong interpretation. This is not about hell fire but about Idol worship to Baal, Asherah,Molech, where newborns are sacrificed live and direct amidst drumming to quench the screams of the willing or unwilling mother. It was an abominable act to Yahweh. To the people, it was merely a display of cultural pride and identity.

Tormenting living people in fire has never ever come into the mind of our God! undecided
