BlueRayDick:
This part caught my attention in the article:



And then this part:



The author is literally saying as much as IRGC and NRGC may try so much to prove the war is tilting in favor the Persian regime, the reality is quite different. The US/Israeli forces operate unhindred within Iranian territory degrading their military capability and their future ability to project as a regional military heavyweight.

They want to render Iran a paper tiger by the time the war ends and that the regime will spend years trying to rebuild its military infrastructure such that they won't have luxury of time to bother both friends and foes within the region.
Anyone following the war knows IGRC missiles in the last week are strictly for political impact not operational. They have since lost capability to maintain operational tempo. They are just trying to win the news cycle war.

how about Israel and USA that attacked Iran first? Both you and merz didn't see that one? It's only Hezbollah that attacked first you saw..
You always talk like a child

What did Israel do to Houthis and Hezbollah to make them attack Israel and American ships in red sea

You think Iran will direct it's proxies to attack and won't collect wotowoto? They have it coming

We shouldn't hope on Saudi to come and save us with transfers this summer with whats going on there, plus players won't want to go there easily

The high rotation policy of Clownlake should go on pause

We only need 2 incomings - One DM and one LW

Emegha takes care of striker
Sarr and Anselmino take care of CB plus Colwill return
Penders takes care of goalkeeper

Just the two positions - DM and LW where I'm not happy with current options or Strasbourg provision

Many of these are far from legends. Malouda, Joe Cole, Ramires, Obi, Alonso, Courtois and Costa are not legends


MorataFC:
Which of these Chelsea legends will you bring back to Chelsea?
1. Petr Čech or Thibaut Courtois - Cech

2. Branislav Ivanović or César Azpilicueta - Tie but will go Iva for the set piece goals

3. Ricardo Carvalho or Thiago Silva - Carvalho when he played for Chelsea, Silva was an old man when he arrived

4. Claude Makélélé or N'Golo Kanté - Makelele

5. Ramires or John Obi Mikel -Neither

6. Joe Cole or Florent Malouda - Neither

7. Eden Hazard or Frank Lampard - Lampard

8. Diego Costa or Didier Drogba - Drogba

9. Ashley Cole or Marcos Alonso - Cole

10. Michael Essien or Cesc Fàbregas - Essien

Even a single nigga with an RPG can threaten ships from passing. Oman or Saudi can also block the Strait if they wish, same way Egypt can and has blocked the Suez canal, Houthis can make parts the red sea impassible and Somali Pirates and Niger Delta militants have made shipping lanes impassable. Ships are stationary objects to any projectile

Blocking Strait is an expected and easily achievable escalation point, it doesn't mean Iran is not collecting wotowoto. I don't know why Trump is ranting and giving much oxygen to blocking of the strait.

They have killed Bibi many times on the internet but na their leaders dey die in real life. Nobody fool pass dem.
Iran who have only killed 15 Israelis during this war and only one soldier (on leave) during the last war suddenly want us to believe they can send targeted missiles to kill high ranking Government officials and those officials would have no warning system. You go fear propaganda.

You probably fiddled with the captaincy absent-mindedly.

As for me and my household, a well rested Bruno Fernandes with no domestic and European cups commitment is our default set and forget captaincy option till GW38. 🤝👌
3 points in the bank regardless, but I suppose extend my lead at the top of the main table.naim dey pain me

Fofana is a very foooooooliiiissh defender

How can you position like this for the second game in a row

We always insist on being "goalside" of your attacker. Every defender in amateur football knows that phrase. Meaning he should be inside his attacker so any pass is taking the attacker out wide not straight down the goal

Thank God I didn't even watch the match. I don't think I'll be wasting my time with any chelsea game for.the remainder of ther season. I go just dey use sofascore check scores.
My sister-in-law works for the Premier League and her husband (my brother) supports Arsenal. She gets a number of free tickets for EPL games but they called me tonight to say Arsenal tickets are oversubscribed in the office and whether she should apply for Chelsea-Man City ticket for me. When I calculated the cost of train ticket to London and added the way Rosenoir killed my spirit against PSG, I told her not to bother.

Please let's be reminded that Chelsea were in top 4 when Maresca was sacked at exactly the halfway stage of the season

The premise of your question lacks logical sense to deserve a logical response. The real logical question is why is Iran attacking their neighbours unprovoked who didn't attack them? I understand maybe attacking the US bases in those countries but that's not what they doing, they're attacking their cities and infrastructures that has nothing to do with US or Israel... undecided
There's nothing logical in Seuns arguments, just rehash of programming.

Realmrsean:
you mean the axis of resistance that Iran created to at least fight back instead of bowing their head to be beheaded.?

Look at Lebanon this moment, their government is a toast, powerless, prior to this war, Israel has been bombing them even after ceasefire had been agreed.

Now Hezbollah has joined the fray, isn't it better to fight it out than stay idle and die?

Israel's intention has always been expansion.. they want to occupy the whole middleeast.
They encroach lands from Gaza, they encroach to Lebanon.. all they want to do is to annex the lands of their neighbours

Look at Syria today, powerless and toothless on Israel bullying..

Why do people support Israel in the face of all these glaring evidence..

Israel is the bully here bro.. why can't people see that?

Me that is supporting Iran, am I a Muslim or Arab? Because I see that Iran is the one standing against the bullies of Israel..

Me that is a die hard trump fan does not even support USA when it comes to Iran..

So what's the fuss?
What you said above can only make sense to a low IQ person

Israel just want to be left alone in their small strip of land the size of Edo State

It is Ayatollah that woke up in 1978 from nowhere and drafted constitution for the annihilation of Israel and has worked toward it actively since in word and deed.

Israels actions are one of survival

Iran has a choice, which is the choice faced by every nation state who may or may not like the oppression of minorities in their neighbours whether Kurds, Palestinians. Uighurs or Rohingras. Which is to see Palestinians as an oppressed minority in a fellow neighbouring state, and negotiate for their betterment, rooting their bilateral engagement with a fellow Nation State in real-world politic, and not taking a stance of annihilation based on religious fundamentalism.

Realmrsean:
because you said it was Iran who has had the intention of distabilizing the gulf states and middle east..

Iran has been at peace with their neighbours for years.. it was even Iraq under Saddam heusem that attacked Iran.

Iran has never attacked any country in middle east..
Infact their war policy has always been that of defence.. they only attack when attacked..

Israel on the other hand has been the one sowing seed of distrusts and wants to clash the heads of those Arabs against Iran.

Israel has attacked Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, Qatar, Yemen.. just because they re the big Sam's favourite..

Iran should even be encouraged and applauded because they re the only ones that dare stand up to bullies.
Those countries I mentioned above don't have it in them to fight back

So why do we condemn the only country that fights back against bullies !?
Nonsense.

👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Ibime:
There is no conflict in Middle East without Irans involvement from Houthis in Yemen to Alawites in Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon/Syria. These are conflicts of annihilation in all cases..
It did not even take anything for Iran to show their hand against Saudi, UAE and co, hitting their refineries, skyscrapers and such. bringing into the open the conflict that has been raging between them for years.

tell me one country in the gulf that Iran has ever attacked prior to this recent war ..

Only one country, please don't mention Israel

Waiting for your reply
Why should I not mention Israel?

There is no conflict in Middle East without Irans involvement from Houthis in Yemen to Alawites in Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon/Syria. These are conflicts of annihilation in all cases.

They thought they could do the same to Israel and hide behind large landmass and missiles but Israel pulled their card directly. Every single person in the chain of 7th October is dead now, from Ayatollah down.

Realmrsean:
And for your other comment about Iran bullying, infact it was USA and Israel who was and has been bullying the whole middleeast with Iran the only one who stands up to the bully.
And this time Iran is fighting the bullies heads on.

So it's battle of the resistance axis Vs battle of Zionist who wants to occupy middle east
This is a childish worldview.

Israel is at peace and bilateral cooperation with all neighbours. Iran is the only country not at peace and in a stance of annihilation against its neighbour.

Palestine is not a neighbour but a part of Israel (oppressed minority). Oppressed minorities like the Kurds, Palestinians, Uighurs, Rohingras, Alawites, Druze, Yazidis, Azeris are not reasons why Nation States take stances of annihilation against each other.

Trump just said US bombed Iranian jewel, kharg island. But seems it was just the military targets..but threatened to finish everything off if Iran continues to block the strait
Yep, and Iran said they'll attack all Gulf refineries in return

This is Irans 1967 moment. Nobody in that region should take a stance of annihilation against it's neighbours cos they will show you your pain points. Iran has a default stance of annihilation against Israel which the other Gulf states did in 1967. Israel showed them their pain point and they have been at peace since.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Ibime(m): 7:48am On Mar 14
Emaprince:
The bold is eaxctly what is happening.

Iran are at a point where they have lost almost everything and they feel they have nothing else to lose. So its about bombing the soft guys in the region, to put pressure on America to stop the war.
They still have something. 90% of their oil flows through Kharg Island and it was left untouched while every military installation on the Island was blown up. Their whole electricity network can also be obliterated in hours which takes decades to rebuild, leaving them penniless and without light for decades

But the Saudis and co will have to eat missiles on their refineries in return, and that's the current escalation/negotiation point.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Ibime(m):
larride:
Trump dey bobo him base, obliterated attack and yet somehow manage not to touch Iran oil infrastructure that's 90% of Kharg Island.
Deliberately so. Oil infrastructure is the next ladder up the escalation point. Iran's whole oil industry and energy grid can be obliterated into decades long recovery in less than 1 hour but they have already showed they will send missiles to Saudi and Gulf refineries in return.

Had it been Israel alone they are fighting, they won't have recourse to threaten their Gulf neighbours. They are basically using the Gulf states as leverage.

The aims of the last 12 months action against Iran have been achieved for me. From an Iran that surrounded and carried out terror attacks against Israel unprompted and at will, that was bold enough to fire 200 missiles at Israel just for the killing of a Lebanese citizen (Nasrallah), and behaved like it had all the cards to bully Israel at will, had them surrounded by proxies and Israel could do nothing about it due to their small landmass compared to Irans . . .to an Iran now begging never to be attacked again as a condition of ceasefire after having their false confidence and card pulled.

Iran have felt pain points to behave like a normal state from now on and not a terror overlord. Every country has pain points but they thought they had none compared to their Gulf and Israeli neighbours. Anything from here is about what all parties are willing to suffer in terms of escalation. The pain point for Iran is obvious - bombing their electricity and oil industry back to stone age, but the trade off is the pain point on the Gulf States oil industry.

please don't provoke me. I was a boy when milan was top two in europe and destroying teams with reckless abandon. The likes of Shevchenko, tomasson, rui costa, seedorf, dida, ambrosini, pirlo, stam, crespo, nesta, maldina, cafu made our team of choice when we went to game center to play PES. Some of us stole our mothers money to play. Cos AC milan was the Greatest club on earth. At that time madrid was consistently crashing out of the round of 16, but you didn't mention them out of bias. Raumdeuter can confirm what am saying. They were invincible. Only psv and barca were able to knock them @ some point in time
We don't judge football on Playstation

We were watching as men then with full ball knowledge, not some starry eyed PlayStation adolescent

The records show that Milan team won only one league title in the 2000s and was nothing generational about them

What type of logic is this one ?

Deportivo isn’t even a small team then

I can easily say this psg was pasted by a average Chelsea team too
Deportivo is a Tottenham then

Can you tell me how many league titles the great Milan team won from 2000 to 2009?

Some people either have poor memory or did not know ball

AC Milan won only one league title in 10 years in the 2000s, usually just finishing top four

They got disgraceful severally in the UCL with some unforgivable scorelines, fluking a 2003.UCL win on penalties

That team was average as fvck.

If they faced this PSG, they will see the same scoreline as ImterMilan
