He didn't give anything.

Baca gave home a chance.
Do you know where Baca picked him up?
I'm not saying he should not leave but what's with the crocodile tears?
Just tell us, " I wanna stay but Baca couldn't meet my wages and I can't accept anything less- simple!

You expected him to say all that in a press conference, in front of his old teammates, the board, camera men, his family, etc? Lol where's the wisdom in that? Also, how could you tell that his emotional breakdown wasn't genuine?

donbenie:
English Clubs dominated this season..
Spain has been dominant for how long?
Last two seasons PSG was in the finals.
How many players in England have contested for the Balon D'or in recent times?
How many have won?
How many are truly regarded as World Class?
Nothing Special about the English league.

It was an all English final in the UCL last season, and by default, an English team won it.

An English team featured in the Europa league final last season.

Three seasons ago, it was an all English final in the UCL, and also an all English final in the Europa league. How many times have you seen this happen?

Four seasons ago, an English club featured in the UCL final but unfortunately lost to a club with the greatest achievements in the UCL.

With these achievements in recent times, how can you say that English clubs and their players are not world class? You have to be a hater to think like that.

donbenie:
HaterZ!
Messi is a fake because he plays only for Barcelona..
He's afraid of leaving..
Messi finally leaves Barcelona..
HaterZ!
He's going to a farmer's club..
Why not Italy and Premier League..
Hate to break it to you..
The best players are neither in Italy nor England..

In the most recent times, English clubs have been the ones dominating European competitions. What does that mean to you?

Minjim:
Barcelona gave Messi the chance for the world to know him.
After having everything, when it was time to stick with Baca, he ditched them for money

What kind of talk is this? Same way you people attacked Hazard for leaving Chelsea. What else did you expect from him? To spend his entire life in Barcelona like he was created by members of the club?

He already gave them 17 years of his life and both parties have done great things for each other. At some point in life, one has to move on to another phase of their life. So you people should leave that guy alone and let him make decisions he thinks is best for him. Cmon!

Make them free this guy o.

Maddison? With the very competitive midfield that Chelsea has? E go just end up like Drinkwater.

Lautaro Martinez's probable move to Spurs should be cut down to 4 or 5/10, since it depends on Lukaku's move to Chelsea which is 9/10 chance possible.

ojaysam25:
Messi salaries would be pay in full in five years time
There was no pay cut messi would play two years then barca will use the remaining three years to pay messi complete salary that is the situation
Messi left barca because of money and fulfilling his desires to win more trophies

Where did you get this information? I can't find it anywhere on the net.

Mangekyo:
What will it be like to potentially play against Barcelona?

Messi: “The last few years of my career I’m going to fight for titles. I want to win. There’s no doubt that I will leave and join a club that competes with Barcelona. I didn’t want to leave but I want to continue winning.

“Congratulations to Dani Alves [on winning Olympic gold]. I want more trophies. I want to overtake my friend.”

I never doubted you, but why would he choose to remain there despite the proposal of a pay cut?

Mangekyo:
Did you even read his press conference today? He said he wants more trophy. Go read up of you think I'm lying, or better still ill go copy them and past for you.

He wants more trophy. Barcelona are shit, they don't have the capability of winning even laliga again not to talk of ucl.
They should stop being stingy and leg Messi go. He's tried for them already

It's natural human instinct to do everything possible to keep the best around, but he has really tried for them.

Mangekyo:
PSG don't want any savior, they never said they wanted anyone to help them. Barca should leave them TF alone
Barca really want to keep messi in this shit team with pique and lenglet still at the heart of their Defence. It shows they don't want the best for him. Messi has said he wants to win trophies now that he's close to retirement, especially the UCL. why can't Barca just allow him to go to a club that can make it possible since they themselves are shit? They don't even respect Messi.
Walahi I hate barca

Messi? Trophies? Lol he's had too many for him to want more elsewhere, maybe the world cup is his top priority now.

Like I said, they're just being selfish and the truth is, it's not just about Barca. Messi wanted to stay. If he didn't, then he wouldn't have accepted a pay cut just to remain there.

ojaysam25:
Which loyal, someone that milks the club dry and decides to run in search of more money in their darkest hour
If he was loyal he would have taken a pay cut
His salary would be pay in full in five years time but he is expected to play two years is that one pay cut
The guy is very selfish

Reading in detail won't do you any harm.

Both parties (Barcelona and Messi) accepted a pay cut, but according to the club's president that still wouldn't be enough to make them satisfy the financial fair play rule. They would become indebted over time.

Messi never wanted to leave.

Mangekyo:
But thes barca done dey get bad belle for Messi. Mumu ppl

Lol it's not really bad belle, it's selfishness. They want to keep him by all means. They expect UEFA to reconsider them and boost their chances of keeping him since PSG's ratio according to UEFA's financial fair play regulations, is a lot worse than Barca's. They're making a case here, and also indirectly trying to save PSG from a possible future transfer ban.

rottennaija:
Just saw it on marca. They should allow this guy rest, it's not his fault to be loyal to barca. They should not mess up the remaining few years of his career, he deserve that much.

I think this is good for PSG now. If the deal pulls through and UEFA eventually finds out that Barcelona's claim is true, it would put a dent on PSG's ambitions to sign players in the nearest future, because they'll definitely be facing a transfer ban (with other possible bans), and it could even be worse than Chelsea's.

Fahdiga:
Imagine Messi in Chelsea shirt. Chelsea would be unstoppable

Even without Messi, this current Chelsea squad under TT and with Lukaku coming in, will be a force to be reckoned with. Although I'm not a big fan of Lukaku.

abbey621:
Again don't attack the messenger but the message. If nimwits are going to attack a religion like Islam and claim it is responsible for Boko Haram and other jihadists shouldn't the record be set straight that no religion is void of violence be it present or the past?

Forget about foreign lands or 200 years ago, it does not change the principal message. Religious fanatics would have people believing one religion is a saint while the other is of the devil but facts are facts, one is not better than the other. Yes Reno was insensitive with his approach but if we removed sentiments, we can't call what he said false.

Just because you did something in the past and later turned completely from it doesn't mean you shouldn't condemn it when you see it later on. It's quite different from condemning something that you are actually practising at the same time, that's top-notch hypocrisy.

Moreover, those acclaimed Christians who held such practice are not the standard of Christianity. If the new testament Bible doesn't tell of Christians doing such, then why should the acts of those in this subject matter be a basis to judge the faith.

What they did is against what the bible teaches, I'm sure there were also Christians then who condemned such practice. If I was in existence then, I would have firmly condemned it because I know the new testament Bible doesn't teach that.

freshalien:
The Church’s history is riddled with all sorts of atrocities and barbaric crimes. From forced conversion, to invasion of indigenous people’s lands in the name of their god, to burning people at the stake for heresy, to support for the enslavement of Africans shipped to Brazil to work in the plantations, to covering up crimes of sexual molestation by its priests and bishops and so on. They are too numerous to list here. But the same people would tell you that hell is waiting for you if you do not eat and drink the blood of their christ. Christianity is a scam!

Whatever the church did should have no effect on the belief and commitment of any true believer in Christ. There are Christians, and there are those who claim to be who are actually not Christians.

The real question is, what does the Bible say? Where was it recorded in the new testament that the church forced people to accept Christ and God sanctioned it?

We follow the example of Christ and the Church recorded in scripture. That's why it's important for believers to weigh up every act of acclaimed believers against scripture.

So it doesn't matter if the church in the past tortured and physically forced people to accept Christ. Since it doesn't have no bearing in new testament scripture, it doesn't make Christianity a bad religion.

Angelfrost:
PSG would be the perfect fit for him... He should take a pay cut if possible!

AN attack-minded coach like Pochettino will be the best man to work with him.

Tuchel is more attack-minded than Pochettino. I think the major hindrance to Messi joining Chelsea is the massive squad depth the team has. Chelsea has too many talented attackers, and it won't seem fair to displace any of them like that.

Tajbol4splend:
Because it is faceless

Analyze properly.

Tajbol4splend:
95% of posters are liars

Some are in indifferent relationship but will tell you it's amazing

Some are in abusive relationship but will tell you it's amazing

Some are not even in any relationship but will still tell you it's amazing

At the end of the day, everyone is trying to look good in the eyes of the world

Most people who are really enjoying their relationship may not even say anything

I think you're unnecessarily being pessimistic. If they say their relationship is good, then why should you doubt them? You don't know those people outside here. Why would they lie about their relationship status on a faceless forum?

I have never seen a doctrine as demonic and deadly as this. Dude you have no idea. Even when Jesus explicitly says He is the only mediator between God and man, you still expect me to ask Mary for help and pray through her? What in the world is this?

Debater:
The church in her infinite wisdom knows that a woman full of grace wouldn't just die and rot in the depths of the earth. Some of the saints have fresh remains today, then why would God allow his earthly mother to die gracefully and rot unworthily? The Bible teaches us that wisdom reveals truth, and once again, the one, holy, Catholic and apostolic church has shown the truth by wisdom.
Think about it,
1.3billion people wouldn't just believe when they're not sure
Sit down and think

There are over a billion people who do not believe in Christianity, or even God. Does that in anyway indicate that God truly doesn't exist? Statistics is not a determining factor here.

There is no truth whatsoever in the adoration you people give to Mary. She was a vessel used by God to channel His son into the earth. Same way God used the writers of the Bible to document His word. Those people were all humans like you and I, God can also use us too just like He used them.

Hoping I could see a June 4 here to pair with, but no one lol.

Nomanlike:
Because I dress good, looks cute and like to mind my business doesn't mean I am proud. People who have never spoken to you conclude that you are proud and therefore get defensive when you interact with them. I am an introvert who chooses his moment to interact. The ideology you guys have that handsome cool guys must be proud is bleeped up.

I know exactly how this feels. I'm sure you had a bad experience with peoole today, and you couldn't help overthinking about it when you got home.

They may not tell you to your face that you are proud, but their actions suggest that. I get that a lot, yeah.

Don't forget you are in Nigeria, a society where the masses don't give a damn about your personality traits, they always expect everyone to exhibit customary social traits and please them.

They just don't understand. Bro no matter what, don't fake yourself for those people to accept you. If they judge you without giving you a chance to explain yourself (if that's even a thing), then they sure as heaven don't deserve your attention.

The first thing I saw was a child's face. How does that depict autism?

obonujoker:
Bro... God will destroy the world whether we likr it or not... His words never fail... Yes Jesus is the ark that will save His people (rapture), before God destroys the world because of the proliferation of wickedness (Antichrist and its Babylonia system), however why do we always preach God when there is a disaster?? Why not show people the wonderful works of God and the need to come to Jesus Christ because of the loving kindness of God?

Yeah, we are meant to preach the whole counsel of the gospel. I don't know Righteousness2 off this platform, but if the end times is the only aspect of the gospel he preaches about, then he's in absolute error. Wisdom is always profitable to direct.

Messi and Sergio Ramos.

Wow! Who would have thought these two would one day play together? It's weird to think about lol.

Typical illustration of the saying, “you don't know where you'll meet each other tomorrow” .

reccy:
The question should have been who is a better investment between the two and I'm sure you know the answer....I'm not a fan of lukaku...

Neither am I, I hope he proves us wrong though.

paulolee:
wages....both are new signing n would be highest earners in dt squad....it would b difficult to pay such BT it depends on d contract

Yeah, it depends on the contract. I'm not sure it's necessary for them to be the highest earners. For Messi though, it's quite understandable, as any club who will get his signature will automatically make him their highest earner. What do you think about the purported limitations which could hinder PSG and Man city from signing him?

paulolee:
I tink its messi or lukaku n he would sell or Loan out some key players...
it would be too difficult to Sign both Leo n lukaku

I think they can run both negotiations simultaneously. Lukaku's deal is 80% done based on reports. Since Messi is a free agent, that makes it less difficult, I guess. But why do you think it would be difficult to get them both?

Kante, Jorginho, Kovacic, Havertz, Hudson-Odoi, Mount, Ziyech, Pulisic, Werner, Lukaku. If Messi join, how the matter wan be? Omo x1BTC in naira.

DonroxyII:
See we Africans have problems and our problem is Religion Bigotry.... I just want to speak to your soul ... Don't be like Religion Bigots .... Every prophets of God has Profession and some War and Fight ...... You brought Noah and I used same Noah to counter your mindset .......

Noah was an Engineer .... He prayed to God and God revealed to him about an impending Doom which was flood ....

Noah was asked to build a ship so as to help his people against the flood ... He acted as instructed and put himself to work while also calling people to join him and they were all mocking him ......

Eventually the flood came and he was able to safe those who wanted to be saved and those who mocked him perished ....

Now, imagine now keep praying and keep begging God to stop the flood or thinking one angel will fly him out of the flood .... By the Grace of God he will perish inside the flood because no angel is coming .... He just must build that Ark and be saved .....

The lesson from the story is that God will not come down to help us nor you .... God will manifest in your brain to act then act ....... But when you dedicate your brain to abstract existence of God that's when you will be expecting an angel that will stop the wildfire via prayer ......

Our Job is to all be like Noah .... Stand to Construct an Ark to combat the impending Doom .... Live and Promote Green to battle Climate Change, Promote Green Technologies to restore Ozone layers so as for us not to be fried by Sun Radiations!!

If you like call me an atheist .... but I'm not a blind believer of God .... I belief God to be "all Good" and every other thing either good or evil !!

Rapture, Rapture, Rapture .... I say for one natural or artificial disaster, there are ten (10) scientific breakthroughs.....

I have never seen Righteousness2 celebrating Scientific Breakthrough or Pharmaceutical Breakthroughs.....

Lurk around news of Doom then jump into Rapture...... Before one molten magma will erupt hundreds of thousands of benefits would have been reaped........

Why not mentioning the beauty of the Lord and ask people to do more in order to earn more ....

Is God all about Doom, Bokoharam, Wildfire... what about those goods that are happening day in day out

I also understand the end time philosophies but it can never be stopped .... Life is recycling... Present human is at the peak of our civilizations and God given Knowledge are being used for evil .... prayer wouldn't stopped it what we needed is for Righteous ones to start creating Green Technologies and overpower those using God's gift for Evil until that :

The Earth will reset and humanity will start all over again as far as the Earth is not deorbited!

Although the lesson you learnt from Noah's story is one worth considering, it is not the actual message.

Here, let me give a summary and refresh your memory on what really happened.

God was tired of the wickedness of the people, but He found only Noah and his family different and obedient. So He told Noah that He would destroy the world with a great flood, and then He gave him instructions to build a boat that would save him, his family and the animals around from the flood.

It was a dry land that they dwelt in, one would think it to be sheer insanity to build a boat on a land that barely even experienced rainfall. Noah thought it wise to inform the people and tried to make them turn from their sinful ways, but they mocked him and called him crazy for building boat on sand. Pretty insane huh?

Eventually, that day came and everyone, including those who mocked Noah drowned in the flood, and that was the partial end of an era of humans.

Now these are the key points from that story:

The flood was definitely going to happen since God had already determined it, Noah didn't try to stop the flood but he rather devised a means to avoid being victimized. He also tried to save people from it, even though God didn't specifically tell him to do that.

That was a proposed solution. Perhaps, if they had changed their minds and turned from their ways, God would have prevented the flood from happening. Noah warned them, not because he wanted to instill fear in them, but because he loved them [a trait he received from God] and wanted them to be saved. It's as simple as that, now is that any different from what people like Righteousness2 are doing today?

Let's use the Noah story as a proper analogy:

▪The flood represents the perilous times and tribulations that are unfolding rapidly.
▪The ark represents Jesus, who is the solution to our sinful lifestyles.
▪The warnings are pretty much the same, and the mockery isn't any different from how it was in those days.
▪Noah couldn't prevent the flood, same way we can't prevent the rapture and the end of the world already determined by God. We only have two solutions:

1. Run into the ark (Jesus).
2. Turn from our sinful ways so that God won't destroy the world again.

But sadly as it was in those days, most people are not listening, but they are mocking those who preach about these things. That is why the prophecies will eventually manifest. So while we try to do our best humanly to prevent these events from causing maximum damage, we should know that our efforts are limited, therefore we have to humbly accept the terms that will save us from the coming “flood” .

Think, brother, think!

DonroxyII:
You are as myopic as Righteousness and Noah is more sensible than you all religion bigots.... You are all bunch of scammers (People who penetrate into people's fear and emotional thresholds) .....

What has Righteousness built ? What is he building ? And what will he build against Rapture

Where is Righteousness Ark other than professing doom, doom ..... The earth is always in Doom and Boom because space is War .... All the planets are in turbulence competing for space in rotation and revolution .... What has You and Righteousness done for planet earth and humanity .... What has you done against earth's debacle, terrorism and banditry Pray ....

Prayer is good because it involves soul searching and communicating with God .... Noah also prayed and God wisdom him to Construct a Ship which he did !

What has God told you to do , Pray ... Just pray

What machine have you created, invented to stop the wildfire.... What Technologies have you created ..... or Your God ain't telling you nothing via prayer

Now, Righteousness professed Doom , Rapture (Oh yes, that's a problem) ....

But what is the Solution, Prayer ... Coming to Church, Bible study .....

What is the concrete solution , What is the concrete Technologies to conquer the impending doom ......... How do we stop the wildfire ... How do we stop Bokoharam and banditry .... pray


No one is mocking anyone ... You and him have little knowledge about God because both of you are religion bigot and God is beyond Doom ...... You bunch only pay attention to doom verily you will be scamming people if you ain't scamming them already......

Pastor like you always preach witches and witches and witches ......

My own conception of God is beyond Doom ... God is all Good except when we ain't paying attention or our mathematics ain't correct!!

It's because of stupidities from you all we have a lot of atheists ......

You sit down praying (Soul Searching) .... I got inspired to do Data Analytics and Robotics while you keep praying and praying without manifesting God's message and directive....

When hunger hook you, you start scamming !

Look how quickly it escalated to this. You were acting nice at first, and then something about my comments struck a cord then you exploded. Haha! No wonder you were so firm in defending the other guy.

I don't think there's a possibility to think of the words “myopia” and “narrowmindedness” and not associate those with you.

Everybody has a right to believe in what they want and teach people that belief. These things are prophecies that were foretold many years ago. God works in a different timeline from this universe, and even though the events are not happening in the exact periodicity and frequency which one would expect, the point is they are unfolding.

What Righteousness and other “end times” evangelists do is to make people see that these things are not merely a result of what we see (man's activities, etc). The spiritual approach to these matters do not necessarily contradict the physical mechanisms. Rather one is an expression of the other. Since the spiritual controls the physical and these problems are essentially spiritual, then the more important solution is a spiritual one which Righteousness always suggests.

However, that doesn't mean we shouldn't take practical steps to ensure a solution. Instead of creating a conflict between faith and the scientific method of doing things in this world, it's important to create a balance because there are a lot of questions that science cannot answer.

This is where your narrowmindedness is expressed: you think everything is about science and therefore, there is no room for faith and the supernatural. Then you create a concept of “God” in your mind, to not make you look like an atheist. How myopic!

You keep talking about data analytics and robotics here and there. It seems you just developed an interest in those fields and the little you've learnt makes you feel like a genius already. What have you created yourself? How have you contributed to humanity and approached the problems in it? Have you made any substantial impact, or you're just the “all talk and not do” ambitious type? What makes you think that besides preaching and warning people about peril, Righteousness doesn't take practical measures towards creating a better global environment? Does everyone have to be tech savvy and skilled in every field? You see that you are indeed myopic?

If you are gifted in technology, that doesn't mean the next person has to be. If the next person is gifted in biological sciences, that doesn't mean you have to be. We just have to find a way to compliment eachother and work hand in hand to make sure our gifts are tangible. I think that's an advantage of diversity.

NB: I do not support extremely radical and uncontrolled preaching, but I believe in the right to speech. If you don't support someone's opinion about a concept, there are better ways to relate with them and try to make them view things from your side instead of playing the “all knowing” science nerd.
