You are only speaking on hindsight. A simple mistake of overturning the ball and while our defenders are caught-up upfield can put us uder pressure.

Y'all may lie to yourselves about Arsenal being tough and all that but I know the team I support. Arsenal is capable of making an easily winnable match look otherwise. I will take that recycling of pass any day any time over losing possession carelessly at that time.
that's why we're saying na you dey overthink am. You're overrating Man city in this fixture. They were already beaten after the Myles goal. It was obvious in how their press was. Their two new attacking subs were not helpful one bit.


No, we aren't tough. I'm still pissed nothing happened this window. But arsenal couldn't be the 1st team in 14games that city would have fought to get 3 goals back simply because of a pass to an attacking player that was so so so free that he had enough time to choose his angle.

This recycling we did happened well in dying minutes. One pass to Ethan is no justification to berate that move as though we weren't already passing them around.

If na 2-1 now, your pov is totally justified.


Ethan was toooooooooo freee. Tooo freee for a fresh leg in that game.

I have watched EPL long enough to know the scores can be overturned . During the days of Van Persie at Man utd , I think it was 2013 or there abouts; West Brom Man Utd’s 5-2 lead to end the match 5-5.

If west brom can overturn a 3 goal deficit , who told u a dead but not out man city led by Guardiola can’t do same if we don’t apply caution ?

Coach wey tell the players to Dey recycle pass between midfield and our defence is not a dunce .
Lol. You're kidding abi. We were with 80% possession from 85th to 92nd. There's virtually no way a lifeless city with terrible midfielders in that game was going to do a comeback after 4-1 under 6minutes.

This one you're emphasizing is just projection. See how City were defending like amateurs too? If they got a 2nd, We would have gotten one barely 48seconds later.


Simple!! They were not eager to bite after the 4th goal.
Kdb did nothing significant either.
PoliticsRe: Marketers May Dump NNPCL As Price War With Dangote Rages by daveP(m): 10:09am On Feb 05, 2025
Dangote is playing the saint card and people will be happy cos it looks like he reps their interests, which isn't a lie.


These greedy marketers had all decade long to play this Dangote role but they're so myopic and greedy that all they reason about is fat pockets.


Nobody loves a monopolist. But if one of them had done this years ago, dangote will have stiffer competition today. But he just arrived the scene and is King already.

Do i really blame him? A little

The clowns called marketers don't think beyond their noses really.
PoliticsRe: Is The National Assembly Redeemable? - Punch Editorial by daveP(m): 10:03am On Feb 05, 2025
They'll rather die on standing on existing protocols rather than direct all zeal and energy through passionately serving and repping those that got them there. It then moves to luciferian pride and they get more disconnected from the realities of their people. They serve self interest despite knowing the ordeals of their people. They grow fat and wax in arrogance, doing all to attain immortality in the white edifice and take steps further up the pyramid.



They mostly think roads and bridges are what their people need.

They don't make any worthwhile decisions on healthcare and education that can be sustainable for a decade. Especially that healthcare. They made half hearted plans for agriculture because they don't believe they can build an empire there despite the lands available naturally.


"Do you want us to protect you?". Rings like an echo through the milky way galaxy that solidifies what these guys are among themselves.


If justice can't be served there, then redemption is far from them in all sincerity. Greed rules..

We have Cerseis and Daenerys in that chamber
We have Stannis Baratheons and Tywins there.
We don't even have a Jon Snow or Lady Olenna.
There's no Lord Baelish and Varys cos they really aren't that smart actually.

EducationRe: Somewhere In A Nigerian University, A Lecturer Teaches With His 1980s Notes by daveP(m): 11:27pm On Feb 04, 2025
In a stat class, my cousin noticed the class was equipped with screen, inverters and tools to make lecturing easier for everyone in that lecture room. But dust was gathering on them all. He had to get smart and go to the school chaplain to use his influence to persuade the HOD to start using those equipments in tutoring students. It has been gathering dust for 7years.

The week they started using it, the stat lecturers were shocked the students were helping in setting it up. They did the job they would have paid one guy 50k for.


Learning got easy and 2 of the lecturers used it efficiently as they could use computers and programs efficiently already. Students passed.


These are the issues.

And if you are worried about corruption, do something about it or keep quiet
I haven't even insulted you and you have gone all full flair. Oh my!! Is it that hard to have a dialogue without insults on matters one is allowed to have different views on?

Its so easy that your stance is the do something or remain silent one because that's anti-democracy. I guess you already know that.

Sad you took this dark, easy route.

Better not be arguing because you want to complain.

Nigerians always grumble. Sometimes it is necessary under this tpain economy, but sometimes it isn't necessary.

15 games to glory

Never make Partey play RB again. He's so key and unburdens Rice and Odegaard. Plus you now have a MLS that's making even Rice and Odegaard to go farther up the pitch in anticipation of his runs or sharp long and precise passes down the centre after Partey has drawn away a shirt or two.


I pray we get one more season with him where the entire team is not on some makeshift mode.
