I think the problem is people overrate Madrid and usually play into their hands

Madrid love a high tempo running counter attack game because they have fast strikers. If you go to them toe- to -toe running most likely you would lose. Which City did yesterday

Try and dominate possession, Starve Ronaldo, Ozil, Benz and Dimaria (All 4 are not good to see when chasing the game). Slow down the tempo of the game as much as possible.

When is the next Bayern vs Madrid to see what I am talking about. I cant wait

OK. I agree with you.

The thing about Romney is that a lot of stereotypes are sticking to him stringly

He is a flip-flopper - We have over 6 major issues where he would claim he "Mis-spoke", "He was misquoted", "He was wrong at that time", "I didn't have the right information" etc.

2. He is disconnected - No mention of Afghan and Iraq during his RNC, the other gaffe about Egypt and Libya, The London Error

3. He is a ruthless businessman with no Human feeling- Remember Rick Perry's "Vulture capitalism", His "I don't care about the poor" lately the 47% statement, "Leave Detroit to die"

With the state of the economy, the rise of the tea Party, Unemployment numbers, Strained relations with Israel etc Obama shouldn't even be an issue this election.

But Romney is so tough a sell that he is making the job of his campaign managers extremely hard and his penchant for ill-thought statements.

Now the debates are coming and we know unlike Newt debates aren't his strongest Points and someone like Obama would eat him for dinner in any debates. His hopes should be to pray for any catastrophe in the next 6weeks.

Where is TayoD, I would be interested in his contributions on this too. Maybe a new thread would be the best idea

coogar: i reiterate - you are a bumbling oaf!
puyol's absence and the out of form piqué made up del bosque's mind to load up his midfield and sacrifice strikers. had villa been fit, he would have played on the left side of the attack......it had nothing to do with torres being useless or negredo/soldado's few number of caps. how many caps did pedro cop before the 2010 world cup? busquets had how many caps before 2010 world cup? so in your little brain matter, cesc has had more experience as a centre forward than llorente? you should donate your brain to the ape kingdom!

You must be high on Ekiti weed to come up with the Busquets comparison.

Pre 2010 Busquets was part of a functioning barcelona system , he had won the CL in 2009 as a regular. Spain was going to the WC and planning to use the Barca formation even had 7 starters from barcelona team whats more natural than to put as many barca players in the starting 11.

Lloriente is alien to the Barca style, He isnt even a NT regular yet you expect him to walk into the 11? Prove me wrong. If Villa was fit there was no way Spain would have played striker-less. They cant even wait to reinstate Villa into the lineup now despite the 8months layoff

When its election time you cant dissociate the issues from the person. Thats why a known child molester would not be allowed to run a day care even if he has all the paper qualifications

Romney is a businessman and he thinks like America is a business you do whatever needs to be done at the moment to get Votes(Profits)

In front of the few very rich donors, Its better to Tell them that they carry the burden of the poor and they would be given a tax break to win their support

Just like he has been caught pants down on several issues Like Abortion, Gay rights, Immigration and even foreign Policy. Romney is a guy that says whatever to get results thus his own convictions are not even clear.

That was why it was difficult for him to win the republican primaries even with the very mediocre(poor actually) contestants

Imagine Santorum dragging with Romney with less than 5% of Romneys finances. Simply because the Republican base are not convinced about MYTH.

All his campaign and policies in Liberal Massachussets he is willing to go against all of them as a president

I have met several die hard Republicans (texas is their base) who even though hate Obama they are not convinced with Romney. Most wont even vote and the others that would vote are driven by the hate for Obama which is more than the Love for Romney The Masachusset Moderate (Quoting Newt)

[quote author=Mr. Globe]lol.... Even tho I agree I ran away to Abidjan; just to make you happy with your self. They say he who fights and run away LIVES to FIGHT another day.

My guy thank God your hero is a fellow countryman of Yerima where you can sleep with 3yr olds without shame or recriminations

coogar: you are a foolish beanpole -
that llorente "might" be tired was a mere speculation - it didn't come out of del bosque's mouth that llorente was tired......

del bosque said this about torres: "I think torres really was a help to us, and I got everything there was to have out of him. In the second match, he helped us beat Ireland, and he nearly scored against Italy, were it not for Buffon … I think he was in good physical shape. Yes, I heard the cries of 'Llorente, Llorente' from the fans. But just as I found a time to use Torres, I just could not find the opportunity to use Llorente over six matches … and I say that with regrets not because I favour one player over the other, which I don't, but because Llorente is on the personal front a really nice guy and is a great striker."

as you can see, del bosque simply rated torres more than the other strikers in spain. its so disgraceful that you and ibime would lie like zombies to witchhunt nando!

based on experience Villa and Torres were the top strikers. Villa was crocked and VdB would rather use no striker than try out Torres. The other option was to use Rookies like Lloriente and Negredo who had prior to Euro cup started 5 games each for Spain

He rather went with the no striker option than Play the useless Torres

nateevs: ". . .and signs that some of the players he'd picked for his squad, like Fernando Llorente, might be exhausted. . . "

I am supposed to ignore the context in which the statement was composed and swallow it hook, ljne and sinker as VDB's reason for not playing Llorente for a single minute.

What a load of codswallop.


Is this percieved tiredness by a journalist the same reason Soldado was not selected as well? This numpty is caught right in middle of proving that Llorente' s tiredness and Torres' loss of form, though suppossedly known before the tourney, is reason they didn't play in it and proving that although the situation of players was known before the Euros began, it still was not enough to take along an in-form and "a striker who wasn' t tired" .

Very stupid argument when a sensible conclusion was that Del Bosque was using Barca's false 9 tactics.

Barca used a False 9 when Villa was out for the season and they had no other striker.

Spain had Villa out , had other strikers but chose to use the false 9 because the other inform strikers were not experienced at the top level and the experienced Mr Torres has been out of form since yar Adua died in Saudi

He already said he is not concerned about the poor. He is only bothered about his rich friends.

Obama already countered that when he won in 2008, Romney had 47% of votes but I told everyone that even those 47% I have heard you, and I would be a president for all Americans

Every week Romney makes new gaffes. When he isnt insulting Britain he is making unguarded remarks about Egypt now this one.

A candidate that should be on the offensive has been put on defence for the past month 7 weeks into the election. It sure isnt looking good fot MYTH Romney

[quote author=Mr. Globe]well the principal said the knowledge you are trying to impart is rusted. You have to respect that and learn from us when we post. If you refuse and want to continue going about it with the hope of tribal consideration also be prepared to serve the ban that comes with it. Although I wish it will be a year minimum because your obsession with IKEMBA OJUKWU is sickening and not healthy for this Site.[/quote]I wish they leave you alone so I can continue pummeling you with knowledge.

You see the difference between us? We are not equal and would never be. We dont do the Abidjan way. If you are sure of yourself you come out with bare knuckles and not run away to Drogbas country

Its like a student who prays the teacher falls sick so he can escape going to school.

Rather I would hope they don't ban you so I can continue to impart knowledge into you and your folks.

Its my own way of making the world more intelligent and eliminating retards

debosky: @ DK

Market is very good as you can see - played one, won one in the 2012/13 UCL.

I'm guessing Poldi is still a dud according to you eh?

Do you think his DUDship would dissappear in a few months or couple or games?

I'm sure you were one of the who de-DUD-ded Almunia and Djourou after a couple of good gamessome seasons ago

debosky: Ibime is truly a charlatan - how is Llorente not being 'fully fit' the same thing as being tired?

That the Guardian SPECULATES that Llorente MIGHT be tired is no proof of anything - like Coogar said, if Xavi played 50 something times and wasn't tired, how often did Llorente play to claim he was tired?

The fact is that Llorente was struggling to regain fitness from injury and wasn't tired.

You seemed to miss "Fernando Llorente, might be exhausted after a demanding season of domestic and club international fixtures"

So because Xavi wasnt tired means another player shouldn't be? Last weekend Andy Johnson and Lukas Podolski started the games How come Johnson left injured and Poldi wasnt? Fabrice Muamba collapsed on the field, How come others on the same field didnt collapse?

You see the stupidity oozing from your argument?

[quote author=ekt_bear]DK, relax

Unfortunately you are going to get the short end of things because it is basically you responding to the Igbo trolls.

So the punishment that 50 or 100 of them receive effectively gets heaped onto you.

If OAM4J doesn't do this, then they will cry and whine that he is a biased Yoruba mod or something.

He is trying his best. But it is only natural for him to make mistakes, given the amount of those trolls whining and crying saying that he has an agenda.

Let's relax here a bit, imo.

OAM4J isn't a douche (unlike say maclatunji), he just unfortunately has to be a bit harsher on you to avoid seeming biased.[/quote]He might not be a douche but he sure is a slimeball

OAM4J: Lol. Take your ban like a man just as you used to advise others and stop complaining & whining everywhere cos it now gets to you.

Who cares about your opinion and assessment of me? If you can do a good job at moderating, why didnt you take it up when you were offered. Anyways, it's not too late, you can have the job, will be so glad to leave it for you and see what good job you will do.

You are not wise, you have no damm clue about who I am, whereas your whole life are all over the internet. No, I can not compare you with me. Never. I only laugh at your ignorance cos it doesnt make you look good. Iwo lomo oju o ri ola ri to nfi moto pose.

Just grow up. Am done with you.

And you lied, Kosovo had no power to ban you when he was a mod. Only Seun, Debosky & Mukina2 had the powers then.

Its important you take this job seriously cos it might be the major thing you would add to your achievement as it stands. You were given the moderating job cos you so much craved the attention you were denied in the real world

In the most important position you have ever held in life - Politics section mod, Opinion of most is that you are incompetent at it.

Ok you for don talk say na wetin dey pain you be that since. Ti o ba je ti moto ni, O le ba inspired soro. He would surely fix you up with one. Have a damn clue who you are? Like who cares really? In the real world who cares who you are? Its only ppl that are denied any importance in real life that take the virtual world seriously.

Like they say Omo oju ori ola ri ti on so omo e ni Olaniyonu. Akukuubi san se rada rada

OAM4J: Jarus check his ban log on his profile, you will understand the reason for the hate.

Dayokanu thought he was a sacred cow, above ban and I became the worst moderator to him when I started banning him for his 'tribal' posts. Also I think he has something personal against me so am not surprised he will even blame me when his football team also loses a match. Dont mind him, he just need to grow up and stop his childish tribal wars.

You are not the first mod that would ban me but I can tell you are the most incompetent even worse than Kosovo who also got me banned several times. And has the ban stopped the tribal posts? Oshi ko da nile pako.

Being a mod is probably the high point of your online career thats why you cant wait to wield the powers that has been denied in more important aspect of life. Many ppl on this forum have declined several opportunities to be what you hold in so much high esteem.

I wont deny you your time in the sun. enjoy it to the fullest who knows when the next recognition would come by.

Omo aijebe ri, ti on ja epo saya.

Katsumoto: Abeg go chill jor.

Free the guy.

The worst thing is when one is never consistent in his use of rules and keep shifting goalposts. There is a set of NL rules which he doesnt follow and he creates his own rules. he is easily the worst mod ever seen on NL.

I have been on here for over 6yrs on Politics, Sports which are easily the most volatile. I have seen Jarus mod, even freaking Kosovo does a better job.

Some ppl are better just where they are as posters without any responsibilities given to them

Jarus: DK, wetin my partner do you now?

coogar: van persie received the ball 51 times because he completed 90 mins whilst torres did not!
the team van persie plays for dominated possession 55% unlike chelsea's poor 47% possession against a hapless side like qpr!

Van persie completed 90mins How many less minutes did Torres make?

Okonkwo and Son became Kwonkwoson later Kwankwaso

Ibime: Wonderful shape keeping by Torres. Only won 1 out of his 7 aerial battles at qpr and only found a teammate 12 of the 25 times he received the ball. That's not counting the other umpteen times weakling was barged out the way before he could even get to the ball. Shekpe keeper - nateevs greatest contribution to nairaland lexicon

The argument is that he has gone into another slump. A slump within a Slump. A multi-slump

That was a Classic Jose Mourinho celebration.

What a game

Wins for Schalke and BvB today

Waiting for Bayern to cap a good week for the Bundesliga

Maybe Dendeike can come and update us on this list of Retardeen Jonathan achievements

You also need to know how she loves to be beaten.

debosky: You guys always take things too far - were there no other strikers in Spain's squad?

Who was the 'recognised' CF at Barcelona last season? Messi? Alexis? VDB simply carried the 'false 9' system of Barcelona and perfected it on the international stage - little/nothing to do with Torres!

Y'all have now turned it into a Torres issue. SMH

I can tell you that if Villa was fit he would play. The No striker formation was because Torres was diabolically bad

Now Villa is back Lets see if Del Bosque would stick to the No striker formation
