lol

All blue fans that were addicted to mourinho's frontpage stories, and press conferences that seemed more important to them than the match it5self can now cover thier heads in shame

did Obasanjo even know when Kadiri Ikhana was sacked.

his face makes it look so real

There is no need to be abusive. The main thing all arsenal fans are happy about is that Mourinho is the winner in this stuff.

Is it me or did anyone notice the lack of that regal prescence in him when he was leaving the stadium this morning. he looked so normal.

Somze:
everytime you post you show your ignorance.

When I said that should they sack SAF after 3 years without winning, I did not mean the period from 2003 to 2006!

I meant when he first joined Manchester United and he had no rep, Man stuck with him and gave him time to realise his vision.

You Chelsea fans are all blinded by the razzmatazz of Jose. By the way I did not call him a coward, that is your word.

All I said was he realised that he could not deliver what was asked of him and he jumped.

Simple.

Akola, I know you expect this from me but I will say it anyway: I have a BIG smile on my face!

I remember all the doom mongers talking about Henry going and how Wenger is going to leave etc.

Well how Ironic that it is the loudmouth one that is first out.

If tottenham does not get relegated this season please at least let Chelsea get relegated now.

I second that opinion

Kanye West Bests 50 Cent in Album Sales
By NEKESA MUMBI MOODY – 35 minutes ago

NEW YORK (AP) — Just hours after he was officially crowned the victor in his much-hyped sales battle with 50 Cent, Kanye West turned up at GQ's 50th anniversary party as the featured performer.

But the evening was more like a coronation for West, whose "Graduation" widely outsold 50 Cent's "Curtis" in first week sales, according to Nielsen SoundScan: 957,000 copies to 691,000 copies.

"To be a champion, you've got to take out a champion," West declared Tuesday night, as an all-star crowd including Jay-Z, Beyonce and Diddy cheered him on. Moments later, he called for his "theme music," then launched into a performance of his song "Good Life."

Things couldn't be much better for West, who gave the struggling music industry its best debut of the year with "Graduation," besting the year's previous first-week champ, Linkin Park, which sold 623,000 of "Minutes to Midnight" when it debuted in May.

"It feels overwhelming," West told The Associated Press earlier in the day. "Everyone is coming up to me and telling me how proud they are of me."

Though selling almost 700,000 copies in the first week is a sterling achievement, it was still a considerable letdown for 50 Cent. His last album, 2005's "The Massacre," sold 1.1 million in its first week. In fact, West's "Graduation" is the only other album to come close to that figure since.

Last month, 50 didn't think of West as much of a competitor: "It's great marketing on Def Jam's part, by putting us out there at the same time and make like we can actually be compared on some level," he told the AP. In another interview, he said he would retire if West outsold him.

Fifty, who is planning a world tour for his album, was conciliatory in defeat. In a statement to the AP, which didn't address whether he planned to make good on his vow to retire, he said: "I am very excited to have participated in one of the biggest album release weeks in the last two years. Collectively, we have sold hundreds of thousands of units in our debut week. This marks a great moment for hip-hop music, one that will go down in history."

Indeed, Billboard.com reported that the top four-selling albums, including Kenny Chesney's "Just Who I Am: Poets & Pirates," and "High School Musical 2," sold 2.2 million copies, more than the top 200 albums had sold in the previous week combined.

But while West is enjoying a No. 2 position on the charts with his hit "Stronger," 50 has struggled to connect with radio. None of his songs has matched past smashes like "In Da Club"; even his single "Ayo Technology," featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland, is languishing at No. 19.

50's album was originally scheduled to be released in June on Interscope Records, a division of Universal Music Group, but was pushed back to Sept. 11. Soon after, Kanye West, whose album was supposed to come out sometime in late summer, pushed his date to Sept. 11 as well.

West said it was his idea to go directly against 50.

"I was the underdog because I sold less records in the past, so it was a win-win for me," he said. "If I lost, everyone would be happy that I even went up against him."

It ended up the music industry version of Ali-Frazier, with an avalanche of pre-fight hype to match. 50 routinely trash-talked West, but it seemed to be in good fun: The pair made several appearances together, including on a recent cover of Rolling Stone. Both admitted the battle was a great marketing tool.

"The rivalry helped both of them," said Jay-Z, president of West's label Def Jam — also a division of Universal Music Group. "It was definitely one of those moments in the game that was exciting, everybody could pick a side and weigh in on and have an opinion , it garnered a lot of attention."

West said the quality of his music was the key reason he prevailed: "I think my music is really inspirational and I really made it for the people. I really understood that in this Internet age people are their own superstars , the best bet that we had was to make a soundtrack to their own lives."

He said he was especially touched that he had such a groundswell of support given some of the negative media attention he's gotten of late; namely, his meltdown at the MTV Video Music Awards after being shut out (though he poked fun at himself during Sunday's Emmy Awards).

"With all the negativity that the press tries to put on me, this perception that they try to create of me being a really bad person — for so many fans to go out and say, 'We still want to buy Kanye's album,' means a lot to me," he said. "This is a really pivotal moment for me emotionally."

Jay-Z, who is featured on a new 50 Cent remix of his hit "I Get Money," said this setback could actually benefit 50 in the long run.

"The worst thing about success is it makes you complacent. I think when you face any type of adversity it makes you dig deep , everyone goes through it, all the greats go through it," he said. "In his music, he hadn't gone through any type of adversity. , he'll come back and make great music."

JAY Z

and what's that stuff bout supporting were you come from, jay saw talent in Kanye. No insults intended but you're talkin crap because all the pple that brought up 50 ain't from NY. Let me explain to you

Eminem: Detroit
Dre :Compton

I love ny, but i rep for good rap also,so I think I rep for all nairalanders when i say if u get a chance to buy an original album, Buy GRADUATION

young hoodie, i'm very sorry but the simple truth is 50 is crap. i know u have to rep for ny but, u could have chosen another nigga. when nas was like 'hip hop is dead', he meant EAST COAST RAP IS DEAD. so i'll prefer if u just go on and get a graduation album and listen to real music.

But I know, that I will always continue to grow,
As long as I lead and never follow no one else's shadow
There will never be another me
And that I can guarantee
Thats why the Bleep I remain sucker free to this day
The game will never be the same
No matter how much fame or success they attain
There will never be another me
And no matter what they do
There will never be another you
You can search but you'll never find
You can try to rewind time
But in your hearts and your minds
We will never die
We are forever alive
And we continue growing,

Musical allegations
Unlike the majority of hip-hop tracks even to this day, Dr. Dre's tracks have featured a large amount of live instrumentation, and he has often been praised for his musical ability. But since his earliest work in rap, Dr. Dre has produced records with the help of outside musicians, leading to allegations that he does not actually produce a significant portion of the tracks that are credited to his name. To date, only 3 co-producers have shared production credits alongside Young officially- DJ Yella on N.W.A. albums, Mel-Man on Aftermath releases between the label's inception and until approximately 2002, and most recently, Mike Elizondo, a Los Angeles-based bassist.

However, over the years word of other collaborators has surfaced. During his tenure at Death Row Records, it was alleged that Dre's half brother Warren G and Tha Dogg Pound member Daz made many uncredited contributions to songs on his solo album The Chronic and Snoop Doggy Dogg's album Doggystyle (Daz received production credits on Snoop's similar-sounding, albeit less successful album Tha Doggfather after Young left Death Row Records).

It's known that Scott Storch, who has since gone on to become a successful producer in his own right, contributed to Dr. Dre's second album 2001; Storch is credited as a songwriter on several songs and played keyboards on several tracks. In 2006, he told Rolling Stone:

"At the time, I saw Dr. Dre desperately needed something," Storch says. "He needed a fuel injection, and Dre utilized me as the nitrous oxide. He threw me into the mix, and I sort of tapped on a new flavor with my whole piano sound and the strings and orchestration. So I'd be on the keyboards, and Mike [Elizondo] was on the bass guitar, and Dre was on the drum machine".[5]

i think ur getting it wrong here, dre is not really a beat maker. he gets people to do beats

ajax said we were weaklings, do u think we have a chance
