According to a 2006 American Community Survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, 17 percent of all Nigerians in the U.S. hold a master’s degree, 4 percent hold a doctorate and 37 percent have a bachelor’s degree. In comparison, 8 percent of the white population in the U.S. hold a master’s degrees, 1 percent hold a doctorate and 19 percent have a bachelor’s degrees.

debosky: How many players have Schalke taken away from other top teams? What is Schalke's current league position? How many titles has Schalke won?

Daft comparison - the issue isn't the free transfer, but when the dominant team takes two of the best performers from the recent closest competitor, then it's a different matter.
When you know nothing about football then simply shut it.

Borrousia Mochengladbach was 4th in 2012 while Schalke was 3rd. That summer they took the best defensive midfielder Roman Neudstader from Mochengladbach.

Last season Schalke was 4th Hamburg was 7th over the summer they took Dennis Aogo from Hamburg

Last season end Santana contract ran out with Dortmund (Just like Lewandoski) and he was immediately snapped up by Schalke. (Schalke and Dortmund are rivals in the same Ruhr region)

Now tell me something about Schalke weakening their rivals

debosky: RVP from Arsenal - a team struggling to come 4th is not the same as weakening the team who is currently your ONLY credible rival for the title. Torres to Chelski? Liverpool did it on their own terms - they got as much as they wanted and upgraded by buying Suarez. Liverpool were not even top 4 at the time, so again it's hardly a reasonable comparison.

'Our own' Ozil and Khedira? Sorry I didn't know they were Bayern players or competing in La Liga with RM.

It's a simple issue that is too hard for you to grasp - you can't take two players from your only credible rivals without being seen as weakening the league.

No one is saying you haven't lost players or sold players.
When Man city took adebayor, Nasri and Clichy from Arsenal they were obviously weakening the English league.

And who told you Dortmund didnt do it on their own terms? By July 2014 Lewandoski ceases to be a Dortmund player he is a free agent walking the streets so what should happen?

debosky: For the first time yet ought to be a pointer to you - it is a historically weak league which is why all four teams qualifying is something of note.
If you have cognitive abilities you would notice that most complain that the league would be weakened(futuristic) And the Bundesliga sent 4 teams to knockout stage after Bayern took BvBs best player.

So now show us evidence that purchase of rival players make the league weaker

Arsenal bought Arteta, Per, Kolscieny etc because their previous club cant pay them the same money being offered or whats the new revelation in the quote?

Its now official Robert Lewandoski signed

http://www.fcbayern.de/en/news/news/2014/press-release-040114.php



Munich, 4 January 2014: FC Bayern have confirmed the signing of 25-year-old Poland international Robert Lewandowski. The striker, who will see out the remainder of his contract with Borussia Dortmund until the end of the season, will join Germany’s most successful club on 1 July 2014.

Following the obligatory pre-transfer medical in Munich, Lewandowski signed a five-year contract keeping him at FCB until 30 June 2019. The club was represented by chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and board director for sport Matthias Sammer, with the player represented by his agents Cezary Kucharski and Maik Barthel.

“We’re very pleased about completing this transfer,” commented FC Bayern Munich AG chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. “Robert Lewandowski is one of the best strikers in the world. He will strengthen the Bayern squad and give us another boost. We’re delighted both parties have today signed a five-year contract until 2019.”

Roland17: Are u seriously trying to convince me that the sojourn to get Lewandowski to Bayern emanated because Pizzaro was leaving at the end of the season? Here we go again.. And what was the exact reason Pizzaro was brought to Bayern?
Last season we had 3 strikers mandzukic, Gomez and pizzaro

Now Pizzaro would leave and it would be Lewandoski and Mandzukic for 2 striker roles

Every serious club has at least 2 strikers vying for positions

Chief Boniface Iyala, Chairman Gakem Development Association, speaks on the dramatic events of 1967. His words ‘Early in 1967 the Biafran soldiers camped on the hill here, preparing for war.They had placed mines from here right up to the border with present day Benue state. The whole place had been mined. They halted all social and economic activities in Gakem.’ He adds that [size=14pt]the people of Gakem were not happy with the Biafrans, for the latter had practically crippled the economy, and frozen the normal character of life among the people.
According to him ‘Gakem, being an enterprising community didn’t want to sit and fold arms. Also, we did not support secession. This, however, did not go down well with the Biafrans who began to forcefully conscript the townspeople into their army. Some of our townspeople who were schooling in what is now Ebonyi state were captured and detained there[/size]. Up till this moment they have not returned. We think that they are no longer alive. Ogbeche Odah and Imogbo Njolly are part of the group, and we have not seen them up till the present.’ The people of Gakem were infuriated at this development and they began a series of efforts which crippled the Biafran defences around the town. Chief Iyala explains ‘Our people began carrying out surveillance work by watching the Biafrans and giving reports to the Nigerian troops who were just across the border in Vandeikya‘. He says ‘On the eve of the war, the people of Gakem led Nigerian troops to deactivate the mines laid by the Biafrans. [size=14pt]Before this time the Biafrans had killed our domestic animals, and maltreated our people whom they saw as being stubborn and anti Biafra[/size].’

El Guapo: ^^ [color=#0066ff]When a pundits views smears of hate, he'd be bent on making ludicrous claims.

If you cant understand that the tiki-taka style was a template created by Rijkaard that served Pep alot of good then i cant help you.

You spoke of Pep dishing away Deco and Ronaldinho, but you failed to edify us that they were way past their prime.

Fück the records you crave to seek, Jose is a demi-god that'd keep winning even when you expect less.

I no get talk with you walahi.
.
[/color]
Anyone who thinks Rijkaard created tiki-taka template has no business discussing European football stick to table soccer.

Ronaldinho was past his prime when? Pep took over in July 2008, 6 months earlier Ronaldinho was 5th in FIFA World Player of the year yet he was past his prime

We can say Fucck the records when the records disagree with you and show Mourinho is a nursery manager where Pep is

And as for football analysis just stick to "Up Chesee", "Blues for Life" for now cos every attempt to write something ends up being a bigger embarrassment than the earlier one

El Guapo: [color=#0066ff]Na so person come here dey yarn tampon about Pep.

Asking me lads Jose has been able to breed, like to say all that defines been a tactician. Werey talks. undecided

I'd still take the liberty of informing you that certain teens in Mario Balotelli and David Santon were given playing chances at Inter by Jose.

Both are comanding first team football in their respective teams now.
[/color]
I have told you stick to what you know

Ballotelli was already a burgeoning star Under mancini in Inter Milan
He made his first team and Serie A debut on 16 December 2007, replacing David Suazo in a 2–0 win against Cagliari.[29] Three days later he was featured in the starting lineup in a Coppa Italia match against Reggina, scoring two goals in a 4–1 win.[30] Balotelli gained national attention after he scored two goals against Juventus in the return leg of the Coppa Italia quarter-finals, being instrumental in a 3–2 away win for Inter.[31] His first Serie A goal then came in April 2008 in a 2–0 away win against Atalanta.[32] Inter went on to win the 2007–08 Serie A.[33] Balotelli was a substitute in the 2008 Supercoppa Italiana final against Roma. He came on as a replacement for Luís Figo, scoring in the 83rd minute. Inter went on to win the final 6–5 on penalties after the match ended 2–2.[3
As at December 2007 when he made his debut for Inter Mourinho was jobless

So once again in the last 10yrs which star player did Mourinho groom

El Guapo: Oga get your stats right, Chelsea had already made enquiries about Andre and lounged in bids before Jose's arrival.

The board were busy with some signings and scouting that had nothing to do with Mou.
Chelsea already made inquiries about a player does not mean Chelsea already bought him. Jose is the manager and can stop the purchase. Chelsea makes several inquiries every transfer season and still pull plugs till the last minute. Robben went to a Man utd training and still didnt sign.

Epl wasn't tough under the days of Sacchi, Capello, Lippi etc, as it is now. Those days there was hardly a competition, it was Manure ruling the roost. So i understand why those great names never made a move.
LVG was still a coach at Bayern till 2011. LvG is still a coach now. So you mean EPL wasnt tough in 2011 or now?

Capello still coached Real madrid in 2007, Coached English National team till 2012 He is still actively coaching now So what do you mean by EPL wasnt a tough competition in the days of capello?

Hitzfeld still coaches till now, he coached bayern in 2008 Are you saying EPL wasnt a tough competition in 2008 when they had 2 CL finalists or what?

Marcelo Lippi coached Juve in 2004, coached italian NT till 2010 still coaches now. So at what time during Lippis tenure that is still running did EPL become or stop being a tough league

Dont make me bludgeon you to death on Euro football


Pep managed this Pep managed that - total prate talks!. A fella that had templates to work on made available by his predecessors - which made his work easier.

Pep had a better team than Jose during their days in Spain yet the latter putted up great fights, stopped him in a season and won the league convincingly.
Before Pep stepped into Barca coaching role, the team finished 3rd 18points behind leaders Thats a fact. So tell me a manager inheriting a 3rd place team had templates to work with? Which templates?

How did Pep have a better team than Jose? Pep moulded the team that pummeled Jose to submission. The same set of players that Rijkaard took to 3rd place was what Pep turned to sixtuple winners.

Had already stopped him with Inter!
Pep battered him at madrid, And he still continued at bayern.
I have asked several times whats the head to head record between Pep and Jose? Can you kindly provide this?
