pelvicky:
Lionel messi should stop taking penalties.


Here's a few reasons:

He's
statistically
worse than
Neymar Jr. and
Luis Suárez. In
fact, he's 1-
for-3 in five
games this
season, which
is very
worrisome.
Plus, even the
guy who's
accompanying
him in the
Mount
Rushmore of
football
stopped trying
from the spot
when he saw
he missed too
much. Yes, the
great Pelé
wasn't the
official penalty-
kick taker at
Santos, instead
choosing to
pass that along
to one of his
striking
partners, Pepe.
Every miss
throws some
unnecessary
criticism on
Leo, and his
77% accuracy
rate might
come back to
hunt him one
day. It's just
simpler to
avoid it.

what Statistics? Taking penalties and converting them is never a direct straight line graph. It starts straight and then begins to curve downwards. Mr A takes 2 penalties all his life and converts 2,that's a 100% rate. Mr B takes 20 penalties all his life and converts 10, that's a 50% rate. Mr C takes 100 penalties all his life and converts 45, that's a 45% rate. Now who's the best? Id go for the guy Mr C. That's the analogy that describes the situation. Having said all that, Messi could still give up his penalty duties but it should be left entirely to him to make this decision. He's missing them yes, but he's still 70 % responsible for our successes. Any attempt to take it off him forcefully would be counter productive. Cristiano Ronaldo has scored like 3 free kicks from the last 77 attempts I think, but what coach would dare to strip him? Messi has earned the right to make that decision solely by himself. If i was enrique, it would be Messi all the way.

And if Saraki finally gets arrested, that should do for a TKO, technical knock out. The points count won't matter anymore.

I bet 30 out of the 36 were nominated by tinubu.

let them be firing.....they have not meet atletico, sevila......bibao will test them.....their game so far are against two new comer sporting and real betis and two relegation contenders


whats ur take on the penalty stuf?

Messi remains our penalty man. Luckily the only decisive penalty he ever missed was against Chelsea in 2012. He has always scored when it mattered and all was at stake. World cup finals, etc. Those clamouring for Neymar must realize that its easy to play 10 or 20 penalties and score all but the more the sample space increases the bigger the margin for error. Neymar advocates be careful.

brother brother thing will make no meaning to you but if you look at lopsided appointment of oga Buhari, you will understand...
Brother brother thing no make any meaning to you, but when the whole was shouting and money Abacha looted were being brought back, Buhari came out to tell the world Abacha was not corrupt.

As for Amaechi becoming s minister, that will be in another government, not this one Buhari is controlling... Unless in Buhari's last 4 months.
Jonah Jang: lolzzz . Nobody empowers his brother who has joined force with an enemy... If you do, you will die before your time...

Amaechi is Judas of Ubima... And he I'd already paying for his sins... PERIOD..

KA CHINEKE MEZIE OKWU

If amaechi the way he is today is paying for his sins, what about you? What sins are you paying for? Cus even without seeing you, I know amaechi is 1 million times the human being that you are! And as for Jonathan not empowering his brother who has joined forces with the enemy, you're simply deluded here. That incident along with the use of 5 out of 27 to try to impeach him was the origin of the problem between amaechi and Jonathan. That happened when amaechi was still in the pdp, before he went to apc? Só what gibberish are you spewing here? Besides when Jonathan started romancing with the northerners and persecuting amaechi along with his hippopotamus wife was amaechi supposed to stay loyal to his só called brother who wanted to kill him? Brother indeed! You have a villager's mentality.

Chigold101:
I have not been to otuoke nor damaturu. We all know how GEJ tried to better the lives of the northerners who are perpetual ingrates. I don't call that betrayal because if he has given water to otuoke and leave out damaturu hr will be call a tribal bigot. Even if it is betrayal it is not same as selling your brother to achieve political relevance with s TOTAL stranger.
If what GRJ wailers said or wrote are wrong or lies or mare propaganda, Amaechi's trusted northern and western friends should not take it to heart. That will not stop them from given him an appointment so that he would contribute to change that they preached.

In life NOBODY trusts someone that gave his brother away, even if the brother is as guilty as accused. In this case APC knows that GEJ is not as guilty as he is bring accused... The even that has followed three former members of his economic team whom the world has elevated to high positions has proven that...

I dont have much to say to you anymore, you're unrepentant! This brother, brother, brother thing you keep talking about bothers me alot. It proves you're the worst bigot ever. By the time amaechi becomes minister, I hope you will eat humble pie. The same Jonathan who supported Jonah Jang a notherner against amaechi his own brother as chairman of governors' fórum did not betray his brother right? Guy pls repent from your bigotry and ignorance.

Chigold101:
you would have done better without insulting me... But that's okay...

If Buhari and Tinubu see him as someone that stands for the truth, they should give him an appointment within this government. Amaechi is not trusted anywhere anymore... That is why the best appointment he will get from this government is to become an AMBASSADOR. They will send him very far where they will not have to deal with him on the issue of governance in Nigeria.

Judas of Ubima has desecrated his personality everywhere...

you ducked my questions about jonathan's numerous acts of betrayal but its OK. Even otuoke dont have water but he gave water to damaturu. That's not betrayal to you but that's OK. If amaechi doesnt get an appointment, it aint because he's not trusted, it's because the gej wailers have sponsored corruption campaigns against him. Not because he's not trusted or hes dumped! Without all these campaigns amaechi would get a very juicy position.

Chigold101:
I don't believe this story...

But if this is true then it means that Amaechi has finally nailed his political coffin because he is already been seen a traitor by Tinubu and Buhari because of how he treated Jonathan.
With this news... It will be final bye bye to the Judas of Ubima

he's only seen as a traitor by sissy minded sycophantic minded people like you. Buhari and tinubu see him as someone who stands by the truth, someone who's prepared to go against his own brother on account of the truth. Thats how buhari, Tinubu and disciplined people see him. People with principle and character! This my brother, my brother is what is killing us in this Nigeria. He betrayed his brother, he betrayed his brother! You better grow up, you're not in the village, this is the 21st century. The same Jonathan developed the north over the south, why not call him a betrayer? The same Jonathan was calling the northern governors close and was ignoring amaechi. Is he not a traitor? Abeggi.

The beauty of a woman is her husband. Based on that, Zahra is not yet beautiful in my eyes.


Meanwhile, what's the Reason for the last pix?

iam a man and iam supposed to support you but what you just said, as in the statement you just made, as in what you just typed : IT IS RUBBISH!

48noble:
Will DSS probe me if I ask her out? I've got issues with My girl on faith bases.?

no they will ask you to declare your assets.

Krasid:
I agree with you.We need our spanish teams to perform well in the UCL.6 penalty miss in last 12 taken in all comp. and 4 missed in last 10 taken in the league is poor.Messi should step aside for boy wonder Neymar who is clearly better at set pieces.

id rather be the highest goal scorer in the history of LA liga with the highest number of missed penalties than be the highest scorer in the history of LA liga and be the highest scorer of penalties in the history of LA liga.

Krasid:
No player has missed more penalties in the last 10 Liga seasons than Messi.

that's the difference, Messi misses a lot of penalties but he's still number one. Ronaldo misses as much, he'd be number 6 or 7. Because he depends on those penalty padded goal records to win awards. Messi could win award upon award even without a goal to him name. Comprende?

Mcleo007:
We've got an away game on Wednesday bro.

you didn't answer the question bro. Iam not questioning such line up against levante at home. Very good from lucho. I just got a bit scared they were injured or something.

Iniesta? Suarez? Alba? Are they injured?

chukwudi44:
Whether defection or embezzlement, the same delay tactics would be employed by lawyers!!! In four years time, this case would still be in court. BTW Saraki is charged for false declaration of assets and not embezzlement

incase you don't know, or are pretending not to know, there are cases of embezzlement tied to that asset declaration case ESPECIALLY that Society bank stuff. The assets case is pregnant and shall give birth to alot of cases. I don't want to believe you're naive but hear it from me today. You better believe that Saraki has stepped on toes só much bigger than he is. And if these toes belong to whom I believe they do, and whom alot of Nigerians believe that they do, then Bukola Saraki is a goner. What I expect you to be debating here is that Saraki is innocent, and he didn't actually falter or lie in his asset declaration. Then your argument would have a foundation. But for you to imagine that little Saraki could play this hide and seek game with these powers, especially if hes actually guilty , and then it lingers for 4 years, then you must actually be naive. lol.

chukwudi44:
Lol prison indeed!!! This case will linger on in the courts while Saraki continues to hold forth as senate president.it will end up like Tambuwal's defection suit

no this is different my friend. Tambuwal's crime was defection, Saraki's crime is embezzlement and falsification of assets. If you know Saraki personally I implore you to advise him to play ball. This will be nothing like Tambuwal's case!

Saraki has found himself between the devil and a very hard case. Either way he's fuccked. If he wants to hold on to his position, they won't let him off the hook. The dirt on him is just too much. It stinks. I could smell it from here. If he decides to decamp to the pdp, worse for him, he goes to prison. He should just resign and lead a quiet life.

Saraki should just cut a deal. Either way he's fuccked! If he decamps he's going to jail. There's too much dirt on him. He should just resign and lead a quiet life.

Lol. That will never happen. Saraki is nailed already. The federal government has got too much dirt on his already. If he tries decamping to pdp, he will attend his pdp causas meetings in prison.

Hahahaha. See the criminal who's probing amaechi. Let the tribunal remove him first. His files are already on the table. 'amaechi go and defend yourself if you're clean' will soon become 'wike go and defend yourself if you're clean' na here we dey.

All I can say is that wike's own is coming. We are just waiting for tribunal. That thief that looted Obio akpor local government, looted ministry of education's ubec funds wants to probe! OK, we shall see!

SeverusSnape:
Illiterate, It's "removed" and it's "tribunal".

Most B00HARI supporters are illiterates.

you too, mumu! It's buhari not b00hari. Bloody illiterate!

zheroes:
they are telling you because if they don't and you hear these guys are in jail , you will come to nairaland and say PMB is a dictator, hope you understand now.

I love you for this response. Épic! Classic! Surely thats enough to put him to sleep.

Wike never wake up yet. He has forgotten there is no mama peace skirt to hind behind again.

For the mosque, the first question you should ask is; what is the distance between the mosque and the bedroom? Ask that before you ask why it hasnt been moved by 6 administrations. Btw, your 6 questions are unnecessary. Bullet proof o, sound proof o, no mosque or church should be close to any bedroom. They should both be far away! Aso villa doesn't belong to anyone or any religion.

Gesilia Kan should be a room mate to diezanni Alison maduekwe at gwantanamo. Thank God Obama hasnt demolished yet.

Someone should tell Cristiano Ronaldo, this is not 2013. When he started scoring phoney hat-tricks paded with dubious penalties just to take an award which belonged to ribery or messi. Let him score 1 million hat-tricks the ballon dor trophy 2015 already has a name inscribed on it. Its not negotiable.

If Cristiano Ronaldo was a brazilian his name would be Penaldinho.

Buhari is my man but Honestly if people don't start getting thrown into jail by november, I will become a wailer.

OrlandoOwoh:
Mr Teacher, you don't know the difference between different and difference. SMH.

lol. And he's talking about knowing differences! Don't mind that cow, what am I even saying? Infact he's not even worthy to be called one of buhari's cows.

That incompetent clueless shoeless fella put us in this mess in the first place. A man who sat back and watched 3 wise women run him and run the country. Patience Jonathan, Diezanni Madueke, Ngozi Okonjo. And then some miscreants also Known as wailing wailers have the right and the guts and the gumshum to criticize buhari. A man who's 100 times the man their clueless one isn't, a president who's 100 times the president their clueless one never was.

ACHIEVERBA:
well, if you can call someone old enough to be your father a dullard i wouldn't be surprise if you wake up and call your father a dullard one day

NB: NO OFFENCE BRO, AM JUST THINKING OUT LOUD.

Thanks for understanding

no offence? No offence? There is offence. His father is surely a dullard. His father is a cow for giving birth to a bastard like him. I said só!
