Sometimes, we get jolted out of our linear paths by happenings so radical, that they define our existence.
In 1988, I was 11, full of life and vigor, already indoctrinated by several dogmas that defined my worldview.
I still remember the shrill voice of the town crier that night as he called out, aided by his piercing sounding gong. “The king has announced the Ebora festival o, two fortnights from now. Let him who hasn’t been deafened by the gods take heed”. ‘Pon pon pon’ blared the heavy metal.
The most learned man in our village, Ogunkoya, laughed coarsely as he battled my father in a game of ‘Ayo’ the next day. ” These witches’ anchors will be undone soon in flames.”
“I hope they are indeed witches retorted father.”

Two fortnights later, dressed in the most alluring attire mother’s farm proceeds could fetch. I was ready to watch Ajes get decimated.
At noon, the famed and feared Eboras sauntered into the village square, warfare songs seething through their intoxicated lips, as everyone gyrated to the sumptuous beats produced by timber logs pounded upon by masked shirtless Eboras.
The chief Ebora then started screaming “Aye Aye”, to which some Eboras responded to by rushing in to drag out the accused Witches known as Ajes.
Ten hefty men dragged out some women, all crying helplessly, though sounding inaudibly to me, for I was drowned in the horror of seeing mother amongst them.
I tried running towards them, but I was dragged back by my father, also crying helplessly. He knew interference meant death for the entire Aje’s family.
“We shall now commence.” screeched the chief Eboras voice.
In flames went every bigotry in me, as I watched the altruistic woman who always cared for me and everyone, depart in flames.

zooster:
This is the time I am expectedly waiting for God to strike all govt officials to death. Well, MMM is beyond their reach. They shld focus on strengthening the economy and allow us to cushion the effect of Buhari's incompetence through MMM.
It's not beyond!

But I think FG should leave them alone.
It's their risk and money.

I even know some guy who apparently doesn't keep money in the Bank anymore.
According to him, "MMM is infallible".
These are the type of people the government is seeking to protect, because of this scheme collapses, their life collapses along with it.

AdisaOwala:
We broke the Transfer record for "qualities that might come with time" and not to solve the emergency problems in our Midfield"? shocked

Baba, an expensive signing is expected to hit the ground running - these excuses wey una dey give on Pogba's behalf get as e be.




The price tag isn't his fault - na Juve cause am.

His salary isnt his fault - na him agent cause am.

His struggles in Central midfield isn't his fault - na Fellaini cause am.

His cluelessness as a #10 isn't his fault, the EPL is too fast.

Too much is expected of him - na him young age cause am. His mother shoulda given birth to him earlier - na her fault grin

Woww......Pobga must be an extra-ordinarily "fault less" player sha
Hehehe
He has other qualities too.
I'm just saying many players become more of playmakers with age.
Xavi was nobody at 23, even iniesta.

They became more brilliant with more experience.

We expect barca to dominate any team for 90 minutes and not just 45. Don't you wonder how we would have fared against barca?
Barca could have closed the game in 30 minutes.
Stop talking like City is a division 2 team na. Lol.

No one can determine how we would have coped. Didn't Alaves beat them?

I have always been a long time admirer of Kloop style of play. Same with Guardiola. Not just the results but how they play. They believe in putting the ball on the ground and elaborate use of brain and not just strength which Mourinho is always tempted to go for at any slightest opportunity. It has been proven over the years that depending on brain is always better than strength.

Another thing is that Mourinho's team always have one problem or the other. Every team he goes to, he always have running battles with some of his players, the press, referee etc. From where am standing we don't need all these baggages especially that of the referee grin

And finally the teams he coaches always collapse just before he leaves or immediately he leaves. I wanted a system that could be maintained even after he's gone.

I hope with these few points of mine I have been able to convince and not to confuse you that Mourinho wasn't first choice for very important reasons.
I also liked Dortmund for their style under klopp.
But let's be honest, many fans here always claim Mou is finished because he almost relegating Chelsea, but Klopp had the same end in Dortmund too.
It's their most emphasized point!
Not just the style.

In fact, by December I think Dortmund were bottom three.
I know if Klopp coached us to 8th place last season, we would have fired him, but he did and he wasn't crucified despite taking them two places below their previous year's finish.

Now this season, y'all love him after taking Liverpool to the top.


You might all still love mourinho, especially you eph12. grin
If Fans could love Conte again, I believe anything can happen.


If only we get better striker. sad
The thing with big coaches is how stubborn they are.
A smaller coach would have yielded to pressure and started Rashford already.

SIRcumalot:
true talk.
a good run of form like Chelsea own is what he needs to win them over.
not all Chelsea fans like conte at the begin,but he they convert them to disciple small-small.
just two weeks ago, they hated conte grin

credits to Conte for tweaking the team to optimal level though.
it's even easier with a solid striker like costa.
