1) Many players, especially old school footballers

2) Stanley Matthews, John Charles, Gary Lineker....at least
I think we can respect Lineker most. He played in modern era both locally and internationally.

nope they were all booked.
Stanley Matthews, John Charles, Gary Lineker
John Charles.

I just read about him now. I read he was never verbally cautioned by a referee despite playing in two extreme positions. Centre Forward and Centre Back. He also played for many clubs. Had about 4 years in Juventus. Played for some English sides including Leeds. He's described as the most all round English footballer of all time.

The only time Gary Lineker was ever booked in his football career was by a traffic warden!
Not once did he see yellow or red. It's an amazing record for the BBC presenter and England goalscoring legend.

Perhaps you can emulate him if you know the things that will make a referee reach for his book and his coloured cards.

There are seven different offences that can get you a yellow card:
Anything that can be deemed as unsporting behaviour
Dissent by word or action
Persistent infringement of the laws, for example a series of fouls
Delaying the restart of play
Not retreating the full ten yards at a free-kick or corner
Entering or re-entering the pitch without the referee's permission
Deliberately leaving the pitch without the referee's permission

The man who saw Anderson, Cleverly, Fabio, Bebe, etc ruling Europe has been boasting of his foresights. Ukwu! Even Van Persie and Falcao he couldn't see even last season.

I'm in Lagos like u but u cannot get MCL, METRO-DIGITAL, ABG, BEIN or CTL in Lagos or Abuja cos DSTV would sue their as.s pretty bad....pple that use these cable stations are better off in big enjoyment than those with DSTV cos;

1. Aljazeera sports HD, Aljazeera sports HD 1-4, Aljazeera. Sports 1-8, ART sports 1-8, Dubai sports, Showtime 1-5 sports, etc
Mehn, their studios na Oilyel money studios & they have @least 2-4 journalists live in all stadiums esp in Europe & Asia, they also have @least 2 talking to fans/supporters that are about to enter the stadium, they have new & ex-footballers as commentators, etc....DSTV can never try that in their miserable existence
All matches all over the world are shown live from Africa, The MiddleEast, SouthAmerica football (12am-4am), Epl, Laliga, Bundesliga, French league, Fa cup & CarlingCup, Copa Del rey, German cup, Caf cup & champions league, Uefa cup, Uefa championz league, Copa liberdotories, Copa America, the Euros 2016, Asian champions league & nations cup, etc any match u have never seen in your life is there.....& it includez sports u have never seen plus the ones u have seen. DSTV can never beat this in their 500 years of existence

2. WWE/F live...yes live

3. Recent Showtime movies, MBC movies....3-5moths old

4. Any Series.....recent episodes

5. Adult-movies (but it has to be censored cos of the children)

Note: Some states in the East, Delta state & the Northern part of Nigeria don't or hardly use DSTV xcept they want to show-off as big boys

.....& to those complaining @ the comfort of their homez, let it be known to u that;

1. DSTV haz it's termz & conditions

2. It is a private station so they have the right to what they are doing

3. NBC does not have any "legal" right whatsoever to do or say anything to DSTV.....any citizen can sue them but it'z like pouring water in a basket....u are not only wasting your time sueing, but your hard earned money that your Lawyer is interested in.

4. Hope that an indigenous would out-bid them but bear in mind that no company eats with one customer. For instance, the indigenous station that should outbid DSTV should have other varieties of channels eg BBAfrica, Series, Telemindo/Zee good movies, etc....all over the world, it is hard for any cable station to survive on only Epl, Laliga, Football alone, No, that station is doomed for that was what DSTV had over HITV (dough Hitv waz mis-managed sha)...Varieties!!!!!!!!

5. The big boys in Lekki phase 1, Ikoyi, VI, VGC, Ikeja, Ajah, Maitama, Asokoro, & other places where the rich & wealthy lives, have paid for 5 yearz subscription....yes, it is possible cos an uncle of mine in those years paid for subscription in the "village" for 6 yearz non-stop. Another of my uncle then in Adetola-Aguda paid 2 years. So shey na those people go follow u go court ni, abi then go fight DSTV for uhuh Oh boy open than ya super-glued eyez & wake up to reality

5. Any politician or boss that gets elected/selected into a big position whether Councillor, Senate, Reps, NNPC, NICON, Customs, Immigration, etc...DSTV, Etisalat, Airtel, Glo like all other profiteering companies (Indians, Chinese, Americans, English, Japnese, etc) have all gone ahead of us to greet them with enough goodies & packages, so forget their help cos it is an unwritten rule....."Scratch my back, I scratch yourz"


The following are what you can do;

1. Relocate to those places where u want to watch for 3,500

2. Drop the decoder & say to them bye bye

3. Watch online But it is xpensive to do that

4. Go to viewing centre


Note: when it cu.mz to enjoyment of cable football & sportz generally, Lagos & Abuja is not the place to be I tell u cos Aba & Jos were fun for me.
SailorXY, I think you need to read this thread. People who share your view about DSTV too expensive subscription. I am following this thread well. I like the suggestions and the line of thought.

Griezmann/Reus and Benzema (if available).

Cavani or even Saido Mane, at all at all bad pass.
Cavani? I don't like that one. I have only seen him had a good game once. When they played at Stamford Bridge last season. The rest days I saw, Asemoa Gyan would boss him.

Reus, is he a striker or a winger/midfielder?

From the little I've seen from him, he's similar to Vidic with goal threat. Would've been paired with Smalling who's similar to Rio.

Let's improve our attack.
Which striker do we buy.

This is not about Rooney now. Let's say Rooney has flopped. So who do we buy?

I don't know his game but mere looking at him, you see a rock.

.........
Is he a LCB or RCB?

Whose position was threatened? Can he play the ball out of defense?

Just trying to read Gaal's mind.

Don't start what you cannot win.

What rating is this? Whoscored or goal. Com or.... Or.....

The last one before I sleep.

They said Costa did better and they laughed at Rooney's stat yesterday.

Costa had 75% pass accuracy with only 28 passes. He had only 1 chance created and 1 shot. This is in a match Hazard had 92% pass accuracy.

Rooney had 36 or more passes yesterday with 78% accuracy. 2 chances created.

This is not to disrespect Costa, but just to tell that the pressing power of the side you play for has so much to determine in a striker's productivity.

I will likely be going on a break from here. Too many people wey their belly black many here.

First attachment. Offside 2009/10 season.
Rooney 29
Berbatov 23
Valencia 7
Evra 6
etc

..........
2nd attachment.

2011/12
Chicharito 42
Wekbeck 12
Valencia 11
Young 7
Evra 4
Nani 3
Rooney 2


And people still want to say Rooney led the line in 2011/12? I It's obvious he was a number 10. And Rooney had far more playing time. Almost times two
.

Mr Sneez, let me expose you guys further.

How come Rooney was caught offside there times if he were not playing on the shoulder of the last man?

In the whole of 2011/12 season, Rooney was offside only 2 times.

As much as i don't like Costa, he was there fighting for his team whilst still getting knocked on the head in the process. He missed a sitter in the 2nd half. But at least he still recorded a shot on target.
Pls tell me, how was Rooney influential in our game on Friday asides being our captain??
Fighting. Is he a wrestler?

Rooney had good intelligent interchange of passes with our forwards around the edge of Villa box.

Costa was even more anonymous.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 8:51pm On Aug 16, 2015
Costa did better than Rooney? Ukwu!!!

How many times did we see Costa in the game? I watched this match with Chelsea fans.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 8:48pm On Aug 16, 2015
Rooney was coming out when Mata had the ball? People obviously don't know this game.

Rooney ran in expecting Mata to cross. That dragged two Villa defenders out of position, beyond their offside line. As the cross didn't come, the defenders came out to align with others and Rooney had to come out. Januzaj capitalized on this to run in.

This is exactly how Barca does it. One goes out and another moves in.

..........


Well I am not surprised anymore self. I saw Nihilist complaining Costa didn't stay in the box/his position.

People still do not understand that you can only do much as a striker only when your midfielders press.

one defender! One box to box midfielder to play alongside MATIC and push fabregas upfront

throwaway oscar inside refuse dump!

Williams can play on d wing but he does more defensive work than attack which he was originally bought for

Abi na falcao una wan use for the other wing?

Cudrado is useless.

or na Moses una wan take win league!!

3 players Just 3!!

Stones/Koke OR Pogba or even song/ and pedro or my man grizeman who is even better than hazard

and someone please tell costa that its a new season he should stop fooling himself

He made a fool of himself last year against PSG hes started again this year go see am against NY Bulls acting like big boy

Small 16 YEAR old use begovic dey shine grin grin grin


Laughing out loud here smh



Kick mikel, Ramirez, and oscar out of that team or give them permanent job as bench warmers


Una good night

its 4-2 so far

Hazard cannot carry us all through out this year, he would be marked we need another person to deliver us

and costa is not reliable and fabregas we all know would burn out before the year runs out or by January

come January please bookmark this post and remember what i just said
I think it was the last time I came here I read this. Prophetic words? Well too early to say.

Although I don't agree with the author on Oscar.

Broda, no dey twist my words. I neva said Rooney wasn't in the box. My argument was he wasn't there to 'spear head the attack. He was always in the midfield'. Go check my previous posts



You don't just sit in the box in football. Your team game determine where you will be Asta striker. Moreover, being always in the box means too you block the route to goal for other team mates.

He was surrounded by four defenders wen he got the ball and dribnled past the first player(iThink Cahill) and he went on to score. Dats why i used the term literally. Or didn't u watch the analysis at HT ni??
I dey watch the match o.

No dey exaggerate.

Rooney always in midfield. Exaggerate.
Aguero dribble four men. Exaggerate.

Aguero beats a man and then slots in.
