Romance / Re: Being In Love With Your Boyfriend's Friend, How Do You Kill The Feelings? by Dextre(m): 12:27am On Jan 08, 2022
Jaylynn:


Commitment. It's really hard being committed to one guy if you guys ain't married.

And that's one reason I don't fancy relationships. Cause I see it as something that never lasts wink

...and also bcx I don't believe in love kiss

So what do you believe in?

Family / Re: The Hatred I Have For My Mother Is Getting Worse by Dextre(m): 12:17am On Jan 08, 2022
MrHenryFord:
I've been out of NYSC for almost 6 years now and to be honest, I am still struggling to make ends meet. I work where the pay is nothing to write home about and I have a small apartment I'm managing. It hasn't been easy at all. One of the problems being my mother who I see as a selfish and greedy person. She's this person that I can't discuss financial constraints with let's say an uncle or even my father in her presence. She'll tell them not to assist me that they're spoiling me, that those who are surviving on 20k monthly with wives and children don't have 2 heads.

As in I no get, I brought a business plan to my father. He's on the verge of assisting me and she convinced him not to help me and the man listened (he's a kind of person that even takes decisions from the woman. Sometimes I believe she must have jazzed him or something because honestly, that man doesn't know what he's doing again.

Funniest thing is that if she's the one the man wants to assist with even a million naira, she will be smiling happy. She no go talk say dem dey spoil her o.

I remember when my uncle sent money from abroad through her, she only gave me a tiny percentage . The man sent #500k to her to give me . She only gave me 30k and lied to the man she has given me the whole #500k. It was when I called the man to thank him I got to know. I just played along like I've received the whole sum inorder not to cause another problem between him and her.

Secondly, she always wants to rip where she didn't sow. I can use a pin to count how many favor she has done for me and my younger ones in this life but yet, she wants to make it an obligation to be taking care of her with the little I'm earning despite the fact that she's working and even earning x8 of what I earn.

Fine I'll give you when I have but no she no dey hear that one. Even wen I was doing NYSC in 2016. She called my grandma on phone and was crying that I refused to send her money.. I was dumbfounded. Me wey dey struggle in the streets of Kano with 19k alawee while she is working in Lagos earning more than 100k yet she still wants me to be sending money to her . It's not even that she contributes her salary to the house. It's my father that does everything. Even ordinary filling of gas cylinder na the man dey drop money.. It was so bad she started reporting me to all my uncles. Most of them who understood what I'm going through tried to talk to her but she wasn't having any of it

Thirdly, as I said in the first point above about my father being her puppet. My mother has a car she bought around 2014 and I can tell you she has never spent a dime on that car. Ordinary to use her money buy fuel na war. It's the man that fuels the car for her. If the car is faulty , she can abandon it for months until the man fixes it with is own money. When it spoils again, she abandons it again and the cycle continues. Meanwhile like I said, she works and earn above 100k monthly o. Sometimes I just keep wandering what she uses her money for because there's really nothing tangible she does to the house. (I have 3 siblings behind).

Lastly, this woman has been disturbing me to marry even as far back as when I was serving in 2016. Even till date, I keep telling her I'll settle when I am financially comfortable but she's always never ready to have any of that. Always using people like teachers and fuel attendants who earn less that 20k monthly and have wife and kids. Fine them get wife and born children but their wives are the type you see fighting with their neighbors and tearing their wrappers everyday. Their kids are the type you see on the streets driving tire naked , blowing banger up and down the streets and moving with bad boys.

I read this and I just thank God for the kinda mother I have. Not to mock you o, but just in awe of what the f*** I just read. This is beyond crazy

Please i need advise

I have been dating my girlfriend for some years now. She became an orphan recently, so I decided to open a shop for her so she can start earning something for her not to turn herself into something else since no family support.

Though she also invested all her savings into the business and I supported her also with the little i can. I thank God her business has been doing well and developing gradually.

But her behaviour has really changed seriously towards me. She hardly dail my number to check on me, she also goes out with any guy or men, she also password her phone, i cant even touch her phone, she will flare up. She will say it's nothing that she is just catching fun. I do overlook all this just to make peace rain.

Something happened yesterday that make me feel so bad. I told her I'm coming to visit her in her shop that if any food seller pass her shop, she should help me order food. So when I reached her side she told me to bring money that she can't use her money to buy food for me. I felt somehow inside with her response. I had to give her the money to get it because hunger dey wire me seriously.

So after I'm done eating, I was gisting with her but she is not responding, she was pressing phone, then a call entered and he told the man she is in her shop, that the man should stay at the junction that she is coming to meet him, she stood up and told me to be looking after her shop till she comes back. I was really dumbfounded and shocked, I coundn't utter any word as i don't want to talk or do anything silly as people are plenty around her shop. She left me there, I stood up also and left the shop. I really felt bad and sad. This is a person i have really tried my best for since she lost her parents. I'm planning to send her packing from the shop first, but my bro said i shouldnt try it that it's childish for me. He said I should chill for now. please I need your advice on how to go about this.

NOTE; I rent the shop for my MUM just to use it as her second shop to store her goods. Though the shop is too big, so i told her to let us split it into two, my gf can use the other half.


Quite sad. Personally, I think there is nothing to fight for here. She is don with you emotionally, this is not love. Get a move with your life and let her go. The earlier the better too by the way

Music/Radio / Re: Bella Shmurda: I'm Richer Than Everyone In My Class Who Thought I Was Dull by Dextre(m): 9:52pm On Dec 19, 2021
HushNews:
Sensational Nigerian singer, Akinbiyi Abiola Ahmed better known as Bella Shmurda has bragged about being richer than his peers despite his initial academic setback.

The ”Sho Mo Mi” crooner who graduated from Lagos State University in June 2021, spoke during chat with Pulse One on One, where he said that he was not a dullard as many people thought.


Bella Shmurda also noted that if he had been performing well while in school, he may not have become the music star that he is today because he would have focused more on his education.

He went on to say that he is now richer than all the course mates who graduated with him in the same set.

Family / Re: My Wife Behaviour Towards My Family Members/Siblings Is Driving Me Crazy by Dextre(m): 5:43pm On Dec 19, 2021
Richpet85:
Please do not mind my english consider any error as typo but I honestly needed a sincere advice.

My marriage will be 8 years by September 2022. The journey of marriage has not been rosy and sometime I feel I made a very huge mistake by marrying my wife. I met her in April that year, we date for 6 months and we finally got married Sept same year. Prior before we got married I took her to meet with my siblings since my both parents were late specially our 2nd daughter who her husband sponsored my secondary education. She was cool with my family and never raised any concern during this period of courtship.

Suddenly a night of our wedding everything changed. That same woman that took care of my family as hers turned into directly opposite of who she used to be. To cut the story short, she started dispising my family and the thought of their sight irritates her.

She started by complaining about my sister's son living with me before we got married, her mum and other of my siblings to the point that anytime my eldest sister visited she will leave my house with tears.

My wife also ensure she send all my siblings and relations away from me and my house no go area for them. But what confuses me was that she doesn't behave in a similar manner whenever her own siblings or her mum visits our home. Her behaviour towards my family has destroyed the joy we once had as siblings. The marriage has produced 3 kids of which my last child is less than a month old. Anytime she put to bed her mother has always been the one coming for OMUGOO. None of my siblings can come to my house because of her attitude towards them.

I can't tolerate it further am dying silently as am typing this msg her mum, her immediate junior Sister are in my house and every where is very peaceful. If they were my mum or sibling my house would have been burning by now.

I made conscious effort to kill and ignore this feeling but anytime I see her mum and sister. I feel very depressed in my own house. There are other ill behaviour she have which I can tolerate but seeing myself separated from my siblings because of my wife is my greatest Marital night mare.

I am sincerely fade up with her but my kids are my greatest weakness. The thought of leaving my house and go far away from her or rather travel abroad and leave there permanently has recently overcrowded my mind. But I can't stop thinking about my kids, their future and what they will turn into if she is to raise them alone.

Don't forget I have provided her with everything needed to be comfortable in marriage, house, cars, business etc mostly importanly I am not cheating on her, I don't smoke, I don't keep late night and I don't have friends because she has sent everybody close to me away from my life.

I need a mature advice and no insult please.

I am emotionally trumatised and feel so depressed.

Omo you have carried egun elegun, go for couple’s therapy if you can or talk to her but you are in this already. Then again another option is divorce, it has never killed anyone and it will safe ur mental health. Your kids will be fine too. Na wetin Dey kill man prematurely be this

Romance / Re: I'm Suspecting My Girlfriend by Dextre(m): 12:20pm On Dec 19, 2021
Mylife89:
I and my gf started a new relationship and it's been going well, two weeks ago which was her birthday, we both came to lagos to spend quality time and have fun for two weeks.

while on the vacation, I checked her phone and noticed there was a guy who wished her happy birthday and told her he had a gift for her, she responded and deleted the message

The next day I checked her phone, I didn't see the chat with the guy and I was sure my eyes saw an unread message the previous day.

Four days ago she told me she wants to go she a female.friend, when I confronted her she then mentioned that she wants to go pick up the gift from her male friend, the same guy that she earlier told me about that he is just a friend.

I'm sad cos with all the love I'm beginning to show towards her she isn't satisfied but thinking about another guys gift and attention.

We both quarreled over the issue and I made it clear that if she ever goes to see the guy and I find out it will be the end of our relationship.


Women are truly strange.


Bro, Omo mehn, just take it as it is. No lady out there doesn’t receive gifts from male friends, it is what it is. So far it’s not more than just gift, no dick attached I mean. Just learn to let go mehn, let things play out the way it will, nor too put things like this for mind, you will just be miserable.
I have been down this road where I literally immerse myself into who give who what, and I chop breakfast at the end, so now ehn, I just take it as it comes, I cannot be surprised anymore by any woman, so if dey want to collect gift, I go even support dem, go collect am come make we gather chop the money, I cannot give mysef high BP. And if she want to cheat, cheat away, the day I catch you, we dissolve the relational everybody meeuuvveee. I focus on mysef more now, Bleep them ladies

Have you considered the fact that your wife might be going or might've gone through postpartum depression, which might've led to that behaviour?

Were she and your mum having problems before your wife got pregnant and had a baby?

N.B. Postpartum depression is not an excuse for bad behaviour, it is real.


Where are the signs of post partum depression that he has listed here? The fact that she fought his mother? People nor fit quarrel again? Do you even know what post partum depression really is?

Double0h7:


Are her other qualities good enough to overlook this small imperfection? Because nobody is going to have it all. If we just keep ending relationships for every imperfection we see, then we'll be old and alone, or we'll finally become desperate, and settle for someone with all the imperfections combined!

If her temper doesn't lead to violence, or verbal abuse, then I'd say learn to ignore her tantrums, and wait for her to come to her senses... if she knows she has this issue and she dislikes it, then with age and life experience she'll overcome it herself. Also, if the relationship is young then there's a lot of insecurities and lack of trust, so her temper could just be a self defense mechanism. She might think you're cheating, or she might just fear losing you (fear and anger come from the same place).

I'm in an understanding mood today and just want to save a relationship, instead helping to end one grin


Stop talking nonsense. You can sense that the nigga is already miserable. So Bleep you mean, other good side, the dude will be miserable for life if he marries such woman.

You know with the female family planning comes a lot of risk and issues of mismatch or even failure which leads to unwanted pregnancies. While the male type is safer and with less risks.



Hysterectomy is safe too, you can’t get pregnant without a womb. You don’t tell one party that yh na you go do am, una go discuss am fully and pick one person. The way you told him is the way he told you back, getting angry over it is just immature and insensitive. Abeg shift

EnemyofGod22:
I'm Planning To Lay Claims To My Baby Girl My Girlfriend Gave To Another Man.

Here is my true life story
My name is Samuel, from Benue state, Idoma language.

Last year November 2020 I met this girl from Akwa Ibom state, we both live in pH, before I woo her, I asked her if she had a boyfriend, she said no. She told me that her boyfriend broke her heart, they are no longer together. I said okay, I love her and I want her to be my girlfriend which she said yes, she loves me too, from that day on we became friend. On 9th of November, I invited her to my house which she came, we had great time together, we had malaton sex that day, each day by day our relationship growing stronger.

Fast forward to December Christmas day, I called her to come to my house, she told me she's going to her elder sisters house to assist her prepare Christmas food, I said okay, then after Christmas on 27 December she came to my house we again had great time together. She stayed in my house for four days before she went back to her house.

One day I visited her in her house, I met her with a guy, they are almost fighting each other. Immediately she saw me she left the guy and met me. I asked her who the guy is? She told me it was that her first boyfriend, She said the guy nearly beat her because of me. She again said the guy is angry with her because of me. I said okay if she love the guy let them continue their relationship, she said no, it is me she loves and she can't continue the reletionship with him. She told me we should go to my house that night which we went to my house, one thing lead to another, we had great sex till day break.

Fast forward to January

On second week of January this year, she came to my house and told me that she missed her period. I took her to pharmacy and did some tests and the result came out she is pregnant. She asked me what is she going to do with the Pregnancy? I told her to keep the Pregnancy, but she said no she's going to abort it, then I told her if she has ever done abortion before she should not try this baby because it will going to back fire on her, she confessed said yes, she has done one abortion before, but what I told her now really entered her and she will not abort it again.

On the 3rd week of January, she came to my house and said I'm not the one responsible for her pregnancy. I was mad at her, I was thinking she was joking, but she said she is serious about it. Then I asked her who is responsible for the pregnancy? She told me that it was that her first boyfriend that is responsible for it. I asked her how is she sure it was that guy that got her pregnant? When on November, December and January we do have sex almost every day? And again I took her to one private hospital and did some normal test, the result came out she was pregnant from first week of January that day as she saw the result she said she is confused about the whole thing.

On first week of February, I was already prepared to take her to her parents for introduction and possibly pay some bride price, only for her to come to my house and insist that the boy responsible for her pregnant. One thing I discovered is that, the boy is financially stable than me, that's why she chose the boy over me and the boy's mother has hospital according to her, while my own parents are in the village.

Despite the fact she claimed I'm not the one responsible for her pregnant she is still coming to my house we do have sex, and bath together and eat together she keep telling me she loves me. I asked her if she truly love me as she said why did she carry my pregnant give another man? She said the woman always has the final said who give her pregnant.

Fast forward On MAY, that is, the pregnancy was 5months, she came to my house midnight I asked her why did she come to my house? She said she had misunderstanding with the guy and the guy is threatening to beat her, she went straight to my bed and lie down, removed all her clothes naked and said let air touch her, I told her what she is doing is not good if she knows truly the pregnant is not mine, why is she coming to my house and lie down naked? I tried as much as possible to send her away but she refused to go and kept telling me she loves me.

She asked me which baby do I like her to born? I told her, baby boy, she again asked me which name do I like to name the baby? I name him (OCHE) OCHE means King in Idoma language, every day we keep calling each other and when I called her, I always called her mama OCHE which she does called me back baba OCHE.

Some time I do send her some money to take care of herself.

To cut the long story short, she gave birth in September, but unfortunately it was a baby girl she born. The day she born, the next day she called me and informed me about the baby, which she even snapped the baby and sent it to me on Whatsapp.

Before I forget, again on last Sunday of July midnight she came to my house, I asked her why did she come to my house with 7 months Pregnancy? She said her boyfriend make her angry and with annoyance she even told him he is not responsible for the Pregnancy, the guy is mad at her. When I was about to sleep, she started making move for sex, I stopped her several times but she refused keep trying until I fell for it, we latter had sex again.

Matured men and women in the house please advise me on what to do, because I'm planning to lay claim of the baby.

Good evening dear Nairalanders,

There's this youthful and beautiful young lady I have been seeing close to a month now, we met in church, she appear s to be decent and homely and we started off as friends so we could get to know each other better, though I'm planning to settle down real soon but I don't want to be in a hurry so as not to repeat past mistakes.

Today I invited her over to my place so we could spend some time together and she could meet my elder brother since he's in town, she agreed and came around.
We spent quality time having different conversations, she even cooked for our lunch and I dropped her off at her place this evening.

Now ever since I got back home, I've been looking for my Samsung Earbuds and my Bro has not seen his wallet which we usually leave on the dining table.

I have called her twice and she didn't pick up the calls.
No one else came to the house except for this my new girl.

I feel confused. How do I approach this issue?


Lmao, you even still regard her as ‘my new girlfriend’

MrBrownJay1:


what peace of mind are you talking about?! the dude talked about the reward... yet any smart man knows tha stress level and headaches associated with running your own business...let alone the main factor that there may be rewards like they may be NONE!



you suddenly have a clouded vision of your employer....
- victor because they offered you a job when you needed one?!
- victor because they offered you a job that you fully agreed on the terms?
- victor because thanks to your job, you were able to bring a decent quality life for yourself and your family?
- victor because someone built a successful business and decided to share the prceeds with you?!

abeg, as much as you people dont know what it takes to run a successful biz, i suggest you dont automatically look at business owners like the devils of this world.



A) if you believe that you need to have your own business to achieve great results in life then you are clearly dreaming....
- Alex ferguson (one of the greatest coach) has never owned a business yet has achieved many great things in life, and always had a BOSS.
- the managing directors/CEOs of some of the best/biggest companies in this world all have achieved great success in life and still aint their own boss.

B) narrow minded Nigerians/Africans who automatically look at the richest men on earth and wanna be like them, are the people that always end up broke and at the bottom because they dont understand the sheer HARDWORK and DEDICATION and A LITTLE BIT OF LUCK that is needed to have a successful biz like Dangote Microsoft or Tesla..but hey, here is a clue;your local mechanic also has a successful biz and employs many people in the community too. why cant you look at him too? how is Dangote any different than him? btw you do know that most of these people had successful rich family/backers to help them start their biz. Musk Father had a emerald mine. Dangote started his biz with a $500K loan from his uncle. Bill Gate got his big break from a deal he had with IBM where HIS MOTHER WORKED as a top executive. educate yourself on these people so i dont have to do it for you.

C) if you believe that simply quitting your job is the solution to become Dangote/Musk etc then good luck. many clueless people out there quit their jobs and opened their own business, but sadly failed miserably because they knew absolutely NOTHING about what it takes to run a successful business, let alone sustaining such successful business. all you people who think that having your own biz is the solution to life and never be employed by anyone, then ask yourself this simple question: who will work for your own business if this is the solution?!?!?

D) Point for your today is respect anything that is legal and breaks no laws...AKA HAVING A BOSS. because you can create new and innovative things and staying true to your vision and who you are WHILE HAVING A BOSS

E) a society without a workforce is doomed from the get go...why dont you instead think of that, Mr everyone needs to be bosses?!

here is the gem of it all: majority of Nigerians are DELUDED...many are lazy/greedy and solely want to be the next Dangote for the financial aspect of it (aka attain what they dont deserve in life) and certainly not to change the world. you see Dangote and you automatically believe that you will be the next one while you have nothing tangible to offer the world; you are broke minded/deluded in thinking that opening such biz is easy; you are not financially literate let alone understand that to have a great business, you need "GREAT STAFF".... instead these deluded clueless people will go to church and pray for riches at any cost!
its great to dream but it is also great to accept that to start anything you either need a financial backer or you need a job upon which you will save money, then as you cater for your life's needs, you "keep your job" and start saving small and only quit that job if you have a successful side venture. helas... Nigerians will be broke, clueless and with no vision but instead of starting with a pure water biz, they will be thinking on how to open a Dangote factory, lol! the reality of life is that 99.99999% of Nigerians will either work for someone til the day they die ( and there is nothing wrong with that), have a small biz that will make them live a decent life or fool themselves about opening a biz and become the next Dangote at all cost, and be broke for the rest of their natural life (til they now start yahoo yahoo or money ritual). lets be real, its obvious by all the deluded replies on this thread.. aka quoting/comparing the very few successful Nigerians out there yet dismissing the 10s of millions of successful Nigerians employed by someone, that Nigerians are DELUDED!

all these yeye people who couldnt even run their own pure water biz but wanna be the next Dangote....lol!


I see you don’t just get it. You talk as if working for another person does not carry stress, talk out what it takes to run a business. Bro I ain’t talking about some petty shit like running a recharge card business, I’m talking business. You don’t know what it means to have the luxury of using your own time for yourself rather than trading time for money.
And when I say victors, I don’t mean because they employed you, I meant because they have now successfully make money work for them instead of dem trading their time for money.
It’s not just about open shop and doing business, read books about successful business moguls and hear them. Nothing beats you having your own stuff, apart from the fact that you can use your time well, it’s a legacy. Never argue owning a business as against working for someone anywhere bro.
Now, the fact is no matter who you are, you will work for someone in your life too, but you ought to take your chance to japa when u see one. The concept of trading time for money till retirement and then sitting back home for stipends called pension is a subconscious slavery. Go and calculate how many hours in a year you traded just to earn what you earn. You waste away living like this, not actually living , just there.

Una problem na fast money. 8m in a year can yield more than that 82m in years. A practical example is the fact that you’ll wake yourself up on Monday and enter traffic to go and work for someone somewhere whereas people like obi cubana go dey Dubai dey eat breakfast in bed, that is the concept of comfort

foolish deluded mindset of ignorant people who want to claim independent at any cost... even if it makes them look STOOPID!

the important question here are:
- is your life better now because you work for yourself?
- are you saying that earning 10% of what you were normally earning is an achievement?


people.... there is no shame in having a boss, especially if it makes you earn a good living for you and your family. only quit such job if you have a better/safe/valid opportunitythat wont make you lose your (and your family's) way of life. quitting your 82M job to go be independent and making 8M is not only absurd, it is an insult to your family.

i guess....TO EACH THEIR OWN MISERY!


You clearly live for money, not comfort. If someone says he will prefer to have peace of mind and earn 8m, who are you to say he made a stupid move. God help us, learn about wealth, the people that employ you are the true victors, cos the day you learn to make money work for you rather than work for money, that is the day you will truly become free

Your problem is that you love too much and you are gradually becoming a slave to your emotions.
I'm not in the position to tell you to leave that babe, I believe you were already contemplating on breaking up with her b4 you brought it up here

Exactly, a slave to your emotions. That is the word, it’s a very dangerous thing and highly pathetic especially when the lady knows this, she will show you pepper with your feelings

Sports / Re: Ronaldo Has Received 200 Votes MORE Than Messi Across Ballon D'or History by Dextre(m): 6:27pm On Dec 01, 2021
[quote author=obembet post=108121137]Lionel Messi may have won an unprecedented seventh Ballon d'Or this week but fans of Cristiano Ronaldo have found another way to show that the Manchester United man has the edge over the Argentina hero.

Ronaldo has won the gong five times himself - an incredible haul but ultimately now two less than Messi.

But remarkably, across the all-time history of Ballon d'Or voting Ronaldo has received 200 more votes than Messi - according to The Sun.
Messi has received 3,574 votes across his career while Ronaldo has amassed a total of 3,781 - over 200 more than the Paris Saint-Germain player.

Messi was crowned the winner in Monday's ceremony after a year where he finally won an international honour with Argentina - the Copa America - as well as lifting the Copa del Rey with Barcelona.

It turned out to be his final trophy at the club. Barcelona let him leave for free after being unable to offer him a contract extension due to their ongoing financial difficulties.

Ronaldo, meanwhile, endured a trophyless season at Juventus before heading back to Manchester United, where things aren't going much better.
Ronaldo has scored 10 goals in 15 games since being back at Old Trafford and will be back in action on Thursday when United meet Arsenal.

He was surprisingly left on the bench for the 1-1 draw against Chelsea on Sunday.

Tears everywhere, lmao. You guys have fallen to this level now? Make he use the 200 votes go collect another ballon d’or make we see na. Wetin Buhari trouser nor go see

Sports / Re: Three Reasons Why Messi Shouldn't Have Won The Ballon Dor Award (Opinion) by Dextre(m): 8:01pm On Nov 30, 2021
Yhungsarm:
Messi fans are not truthful at all. Saying Messi deserves the award ahead of Lewandoski is just pure rubbish and i will give you three pure reasons why messi Shouldn't have won the Award.

1.Many of you claim Messi won the Copa America and Lewandoski failed to play pass group stage of Euro 2020 or qualify for World Cup.
It is only a dumb football lover that will compare Poland squad to Argentina squad, they are jst simply incomparable. Argentina has a one of the best squad in the world. Argentina played Chile in the first match it ended 1-1, they also beat Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia to qualify past group stage, then they beat Ecuador 3-0 in Quarter finals and Colombia on penalties in the semi final. Then they beat Brazil in the final. I would like everyone to checkout the countries Messi played against in this Copa America apart from Colombia and Brazil others are not a big task for giants like Argentina. Chile and Uruguay use to be a good football playing country but right now it seems Peru is by far better than them. So technically Messi only played Colombia and Brazil as the big countries in Copa America.
Whereas, Poland were drawn against Spain, Sweden and Slovakia in the Euro 2020, i need you to compare the countries Lewandoski and Messi Played against. In the world cup qualifier, Lewandoski played England and magnificent Hungary side, even tho they lost some of the matches, Lewandoski was magnificent(please check his World cup qualifier stat in this poor Poland team) same way Messi was oustanding in Barca's poor team.

2. Messi in Barcelona can never be compared to any other player in another team. If you watch Barcelona very well in 2020, you would get to know that Messi plays as a playmaker and he is given all the freedom. Every Barcelona player wants to give Messi the ball which increase his chances of scoring but Lewandoski case is slightly different even tho he is Bayern point man he still as big name who also scores individually. I hope you all get my point.

3. Messi Performance in 2021 is not as great people say.
Messi fans claimed he played well in Barcelona in 2021 but he still couldn't win La liga best player despite is individual brilliance. His performance for PSG in 2021, also proves my second point about Barcelona centering their ball on Messi.
Finally, i would say Messi winning the ballon dor show it is purely politics, he is clearly the second favourites but not the first. If it was by Countries achievement then Xavi or Iniesta should have won in 2010 because they performed well in the world Cup and also Barcelona. I remembered in 2010.


Pure garbage. If Messi that playmakes, still manage to score that amount of goals for country and club, then he deserves the award. That alone is enough reason. He single-handedly dragged Barca to copa America victory. You are here saying lewa deserve award because he individually scores, just hear talk.
Lewa did very well, and if he had won, I wouldn’t have bulged, that’s how good of a year he had but Messi did just about good too. This Messi guy, he has made extraordinary things normal so he is judged by that standard. Horrors of being great

In a more deeper view of this, this is just low key racism. No info about banning flights from Belgium and the European countries with confirmed cases. African leaders are bitches
