Not too long ago, the talk of racism came into the discourse.

And I mentioned Everton but a club l have been very consistent in saying is No No for black players is Burnley.

We have seen the banner that Burnley fans paid for as a collective to be flown over the Etihad stadium, should give you an indication of the prevalent cultural in that club from top too bottom.

Quite a few were contending with me on that view l presented.
Very racist isn't it? How dare they attempt to steal the victimhood from you guys? We reserve the sole rights to portray ourselves victims, don't it?

Genk agrees deal with Heracles to sign Dessers.

From the look of things, Dessers may not be able to get up to 5caps for Nigeria, not when we have osimhen, sadiq, Iheanacho, Dennis and maybe Moffi all playing in a better league
Disappointing move!!

Transfer Update: The Dennis link

I understand from a few reports that Jose Callejon may be on his way out of Napoli. He is in the final weeks/month of his current contract and could leave Napoli. The 33 yrs old winger's likely departure is possibly the reason links to Dennis Bonaventure emain strong.

Time will tell how it all goes.
Wow! Callejon is 33 already?

Didn't feel long ago he left Real.

Did you know that for 400 years, blacks were tortured, raped and made to work for free? That's just the least of it. Did you know that the slaves were never apologized to, they were never compensated and when they were getting prosperous the whites came and killed them and starting lynching (hanging them). Did you know that Jews and Japanese that were wronged and their suffering was less than 5years were compensated and got apologies but not blacks that were messed up for generations and generations? They never even got access to mental or any form of medical help. I think Africans should read about slavery extensively to understand how african americans have mentally messed up by these people
[b]Once you take an holistic view, looking at the issue dispassionately, you'd realize that the whites enslaving Blacks is just a small part of the slavery story. Before the arrival of the Europeans we were already practising slavery over here.

There were slaves in Brazil working their brains out in plantations. The Belgians were the worst when it came to dehumanization of the Blacks. Remember, thousands of White Americans fought for the abolishing of slavery.

The Black Man today, is going about it the wrong way, the best way to tackle racism isn't by brewing White guilt with beliefs that the whites are superior and that makes you automatically hopeless. The best way is to be aware of these limitations and strive hard to surmount them because being successful is the only option.

The Japanese (Asians generally) and the Jews; you wouldn't see them cry much because they believe what's done is done, let's move on with our lives and as a result they are the most successful immigrant group in the us today.

The blacks need to put a premium on their lives, they're killing each other every single day for the senseless of reasons, if this is happening, how then, do we convince the world that "our lives truly matters"

At least it has started the conversation about marginalized black coaches, commentators and pundits in the premier league.

Loans, grants, and venture capital for blackowned businesses/startups; scholarships and skills training for black students; hiring and promotions to increase workplace diversity (if only to virtue signal). All these are some of the positive economic outcomes I've seen so far here in the US.
It has, really.

But is the extra is something they can do without.

By the time this is all over, the Blacks would see that they really don't matter in the grand scheme of things, they are nothing but pawns whose emotive dispositions is worth preying on.

But the BLM aren't really helping their cause. The looting going on, the senseless attack on white people is just annoying.

Since a black man is involved, investigation is fast-tracked, but we've heard nothing about those innocent ones captured on camera getting beat down just because they white.

You can't stop racism by probing that you can be more racist.

This is what they don't seem to understand. So we should just forget about him b'cos of his struggles??!! I bet we should have given up on Osimhen too. I bet Rohr was wrong to have blooded Osimhen in as early as 2017 while a Kayode was being supposedly ignored. I guess that was wrong and today Osimhen is crap right?!

I'm not saying this always pays off but we can see that belief in our own homegrown high yield talents combined with giving chances to the best of those who also didn't come through our home youth system will help us get the most of the best of the bunch out there if not all.

The truth is... One needs to always keep eyes on the big picture.
Both he and Kayode featured in his debut match even

That's so bad. I know Norwich isn't a rich club but paying £6000 to probably its most valuable player shows they aren't even grateful for his efforts. Makes me wonder what TF his agents have been doing.
It all has to do with the terms in his contract and how long the contract runs before an improved one is offered.

You are not alone. I also never thought he would become a coach. Seems I missed that the fact that his fiery passion and hard core character as a player could eventually translate to a mature strictly disciplined coach that can get the very best out of his troops.
Italy have a knack for giving the football world very fine coaches and tactical minds and looks like Gattuso joins a new line of them alongside Lazio's Simone Inzaghi.

Most people may not rate Gattuso yet but I'm beginning to see something in that guy which I have had a hunch about since the few weeks before Covid shut down football and I feel Osimhen can get even better and more monstrous under him. Time will tell shaa.
winning the copa italia ahead of Juve is a very nice development.

I very much believe they'd be a good match.

Watching Gattuso play, I never really pictured him a coach grin grin. You know why..

Osimhen has been linked with AC Milan when he Gattuso was their coach, I don't think it's a coincidence; Napoli still wanting him now.

It is not the fault of the players but of Gernot Rhor.

Nigeria needed a draw from that game. And at 1-1 they were suppose to defend with 10 men and wait for any counter.

But unfortunately Argentina scored from a counter.
When the Argentine coach was reinforcing the flanks, bringing in Meza and Co. The dunce of a coach didn't see it fit reinforce his defense too.

Since you have decide to be a front end dev, concentrate on it now. There is a blur line concerning learning frameworks and the real codes. You have to be doing the two side by side but one advice I will give you now is to treat them patiently and stick with a learning style until you’re comfortable to move on. So if for example you start with Vue.js. Just ensure you keep on it until you understand it properly. As for learning JavaScript properly. It should be your watch work. Keep learning pure JavaScript time by time. It will in on the long run help you have a deep understanding of any framework you are making use of. But I mean on a long run. If you’re doing small UI projects. Handle it will Pure JS, CSS and HTML . But if big then use frameworks. Frontend design has two part of it. It has the artistic prowess and the coding part. Almost no one is greater than the other but just concentrate
Thanks so much for this, it was helpful. I'd keep on with improving my JS knowledge before moving on to Vue, and I'd be see how far I'd go in the next 4 months.

I agree with you but vanilla first before frameworks is a harder but Efficient way to learn. That is how I learn how to code PHP. But a faster way which has drawbacks is to learn how to use frameworks. First, in no time you will learn how to do many things but you won’t understand how they work.

It is a blue vs red pill choice. One helps you get on to the practical field as fast as possible but the other although slow gives you a thorough and a proper way of learning.

Nowadays beginners like to use frameworks, many folk run to laravel at the slightest learning of PHP and run to Django before learning anything in python. Many to Bootstrap before learning two page of CSS. So it is different folks for different strokes.

Me perse I personally hate frameworks. They give you a learning curve and ideology that make it looks like the alpha and omega of doing things.
I've finished a course on HTML and CSS, and I'm deploying my knowledge in trying to build up my personal website, taken some basics on Javascript and grabbing it little by little, but, I think, I'd have to begin undergoing projects to fully get a grasp of it. Do I move on to learn a frame work that applies to front-end developer? Which one in particular? Pls, I'd like to know the next step to take and soon, thanks!!

Don't dwell too long on mastering Vanilla Js syntax because it would just waste your time. Dive into React and Redux as fast as possible. Vanilla JavaScript syntax is different from React Jsx syntax, dive into React immediately.

Those(in holds) are the qualities that made me say I wouldn't trade him for a Tammy. In 2016 he was too young for the Olympics, hence the school boy errors that seem to have eroded the mind of many, and have them blinded to the immense quality innate in the boy. That guy is top quality and he is so daring, a very selfless striker to play with as a forward. Gerrard wanted to mess him up because he spoke up, but boy wasn't gonna settle for less, because he has so much believe in his abilities. Look how far he has come compared to the mediocres Gerrard was selecting ahead of him, in a bid to diss him.


I hope you saw the way he easily beats or commits defenders, his first touches are orgasmic, the way he controls balls is so pleasurable that it could make one come prematurely.


He is a certified baller, and he is headed for the apex. I can't wait for the summer transfer window to open




Yes he should be doing better aerially and should also work on his shooting to stack up more stats
Even with his not-so-impressive performance at the Olympics, he still managed to get more goals for the team. Now that he's improved and his tearing that Serbian League up, I guess it's time to cut ties with Roma to a quality side in a quality league where he'd be guaranteed more playing time.

Man, you may need to check the dictionary again for the definition of racism, at least basically, cos, in reality, it has been known to take different forms some, subtle. Choosing not to befriend whites is not racism, at least on the face of it. And you may want to understand what the other guy means by "my friend". It doesn't mean he sees whites as lesser humans. He could still have a cordial relationship with his white colleagues. Perhaps he just doesn't connect with his white colleagues as a kindred and that's ok.We all have different experiences, which predispose us to different associations.
How would that sound if it's coming from a white man? When a white man says: I don't have any Black friends. He dares not, else he gets hanged and shamed publicly.

Merriam-Webster is planning on redefining Racism, it'd be interesting to see what they come up with.

I was born in the UK and l didn't come to Nigeria for the first time until I was 11 after finishing primary school. I was sent to boarding school in Warri.

I went to secondary school in Nigeria and after that did an internship of sorts in the accounts department of a tertiary institution.

I returned to the UK did my A/levels and attended two Russell group universities in the UK.

I have worked in the UK for many years and have several professional certifications at fellowship level. My area of speciality means that there are very very few Black people in my professional engagement and interaction. My professional environment is 99% white.

For all intents and purposes you could say l am fully integrated in to the UK society and l am very British.

Therefore l should have a huge network of friends professional and social.

To this date SHOCKINGLY to some here, I do not have any WHITE females or males that l can call FRIEND, not one.

My neighbourhood friends from when l was in Nigeria are still my friends. My friends from high school in Nigeria are still my friends. Indeed a group of us all met up last summer.

Nigerians who came over to the UK who studied at my university ( not my course mates) are still my friends. The guys from Nigeria that went to the same business school as me are still my friends in Nigeria. I cannot talk about all the Nigerian i know from football coaches, players and administrators. Guys in Nigeria I have done business are still my friends.

Meanwhile a very good % of them are based in Nigeria.

I really know a huge amount of white people but they are not my friends.

I don't know you but considering the bold, you have just described the quintessential sell out, Uncle Tom
.
[b]After calling me a KKK red neck mofo, racist and an Uncle Tom, I don't know why I still find it in me to reply u.

I can call you racist for not having White friends even though you're within their environment, oh, I forgot, Blacks can never be racist, it doesn't fit the victim narrative.

When I say black, I'm talking about those Black Americans still bitter about the slave trade my ancestors took no part in, I'm talking about those who are always jealous when ever they see a young African man being successful in a land they've failed to cut it, I'm talking about those ones who despise their black skins so much.

I'm cool with them Africans, the Eastern ones have respect for us, the Southerners, they're here and there, and a couple of Nigerian guys have tried to rip me off. The ladies are even worse, they mostly don't want anything to do with a Nigerian.

My group consists of the Asians and more Latinos as well, we respect each other we are also frank with each other. So, forgive me if I'm inclined to having a more diverse group of people I network with and also call friends.
