I maintain that Fabio of Middlesbrough is the best value backup for Moses. Very impressed with his attacking play today. I swear we can get that ninja for £5m.

Wingback position should have 2 options - a natural winger (Moses) and a natural fullback (Fabio) for robustness. We've got that covered on the left side with Alonso (fullback) and Kennedy (winger), although Sessegnon could be a once in a lifetime player like Bale that we should be in the market for with every other big club.

Fikayo Tomori seems to have lost his place at Brighton. He didn't start well, with a bad own goal on debut. To be fair, he has since played twice for them but I didn't follow. By my calculation, he should be on 6 starts right now if he's a regular.

airmark:
Is he related to that popular sessegnon?

No he's an English boy

We need to get that Ryan Sessegnon for LWB - that boy is widely expected to be the next Gareth Bale. Ninja scored 2 goals and and an assist from left-back today, and he's only 16 years old!

Your own case is beyond redemption. Those useless syntaxes you are familiar with in your street should be left there.

For your information, I have paid foreign consultants to edit my scripts before, and I have known that those obsolete usuges you brandish are better left for kids.

You are the one beyond redemption. Paying foreign consultants to edit your scripts while working as a hospital porter?

Did you not hear me say quitted is as redundant as Old King James English? A case of an eediot who is not conversant with the English language and just puts anything he reads into his scripts even if it is 17th century English. My friend, you are mad.

Please need the advice below. Bloody hospital porter.

You of all ppl should know that catering business is more profitable than bank job nah...
Imagine having a daily profit of 15,000. that is 450k in 30days. which can bank job pays up to that amount?
Its not always about the money sha, but joy derived from earning money doing what you enjoy.

That may be so but he also mentioned that he was struggling to afford catering equipment.

The whole article needs a bit more substance ie whether he only caters events or does he have a restaurant, how many employees, Turnover etc so we will be able to assess properly.

He's just like me, a Maths with Econs graduate who enjoys cooking.

But I'm a bit disappointed with the interview. No numbers or statistics were given to quantify his growth or whether the catering business is more profitable than the bank job etc. Infact, going by the tone of the interview, it seems he is yet to find his feet in the new business.

Oponu! Do you know the cost of a brand new Bajaj bike today? Your whole family won't have 250k as saving till you all die.

Sharrap Okadaman. Stop making noise about your Indian bike.

You drive keke, claiming it's Bajaj, but if you know say na pep, just quietly say Guardiola.

Na real wah.

working as a 'presentation guru' in some 2bit psychiatric Hospital.

Maybe the op needs to work in consulting environment so he can shed his delusions of grandeur. Village champion.

And on top of start he is cursing like a market woman.

This kain thing, I never see. The mods sent this to front-page for a good laugh.

Sharrap Okadaman. Your boss needs a lift.

GreenPlumes:
The problem with fools is that when they know nothing, they think they know everything.

Hospital can take article "an" according to some grammar analysts. Will you say "a hour", or " an hour"? Is best for you to be silent when you have no idea about how words are used in some spheres.

Is "quitted" not a past tense verb? Is "loudest" not an adjective?

"Since that I would be busy..." Tell us what is wrong here, oga. "Would" in the above means 'usually'. "Use" in the above means what he constantly does. You were expecting him to use present continuous verb, abi? It's understandable, you too want to be noticed. We have noticed you.

You created this topic, Who Is Administering Fantasy League This Season(sic). If you can't get a topic correct, who will trust you with a write-up?

Errrrrm. . . My friend sharrraaaaaaaaap!

There is no such thing as "an hospital" because the h is not silent.

"Since that I would be busy". Which kain colo phrasing be that? Since I would be busy. . .

"I quitted" - you cannot conversant with modern spoken English to say that. The deluded OP probably picked that up from some 18th century text he was reading. It is as redundant as some of the grammar used in the Old King James version.

Finally mugu, this is Nairaland, an informal setting where I yarn any way I want, however there is nothing incorrect about "Who is administering". . . . .No be me dey claim English Professor, nor do I have delusions of grandeur that I am better than my bosses because I purportedly speak better English. The irony of the original post is that it was littered with gbagaun and "colo" sentence structure. The haughtiness of the hospital porter is laughable, and he has a persecution complex which is mildly alarming.

Mr Okada man, English is a basic skill that everyone must have. It is not a skill particularly fundamental to the role of hospital porter, so I don't know why the OP is feeling funky.

Me want to be noticed for English? Sorry mate, I don't seek validation from NL, much less for English. I have several skills that feed me handsomely. So ogbeni, jump back on your Okada and do what your boss employs you to do, Mr Okada man.

How many of these chelsea players did Hidden meet in Chelsea? why not include George Weah, Zola and Hasselbaink

Chelsea has Costa, Cortouis, Azpi, Kante, Cahill, Matic in their prime when Hazard joined

Mata made PFA team of the year when Hidden joined

Costa, Courtois and Matic joined 2 years after Hazard. Hazard joined the 6th place team in the league.

B2Spirits:
If you want to make this a grammar contest, then post links to your published novels, and I will post mine.

My friend sharrap. Your grammatical structure and choice of words is piss poor. BTW, which kain English be the below:

"An hospital"

 "I quitted when the ovation was loudest"

"Since that I would be busy at night and in the morning, I use that period to shop"


Keep forming Professor. You have delusions of grandeur.

B2Spirits:
What you should know is that special skills can't be hidden by individuals that possess them. It's like managers getting pissed off with celebrated dribblers with less goals.

I worked as a manager in a company owned by a professor of literature. Most of the meetings took place on WhatsApp platform where contributors are experts in the field, except the owner.

I have found out that rich people always want you to massage their ego even if they are wrong, and prefer losing, at times, to following a commoner's advice. I had never wanted to outshine them, but whenever I perceived that the result of not heeding my advice would be fatal, I would devise linguistic crafts that could only deliver the message to the prof. despite being read by all. The others would hail my language use sophistication, without them knowing that the prof. was smarting. He would have no other choice than submitting to me.

Along the line, he devised ways of making me look stupid, and I quitted when the ovation was loudest.

Now I've secured a new job in an hospital. My job description is purely about presentations--assisting the owner, who has been taking up this role before my arrival. It also requires me to be in the hospital everyday. Here, I normally don't have much to do between 10am and 4pm. Since that I would be busy at night and in the morning, I use that period to shop and and get important stuff done--I would still obtain permission before embarking on these. This job should have more men on shifts, but they don't want to hire more persons.

Being a good orator, my employer felt threatened and stylishly mentioned it in one of his presentations.

In his words, "Don't be surprised at our new man's ability to compete with Mark Twain as an orator. We all have special skills, and you are well aware of mine as not being oratory."

That marked the beginning of dramas.

I have an apartment in the hospital. The TV here has DSTV subscription paid for monthly, and linked with hospital wards.

Two weeks after my arrival, the owner disabled it. His reason is that he doesn't want patients to be watching ungodly channels. Know that Tv in the wards must be switched off by 8pm. But I watch it in my apartment anytime I want. I see this as a calculated attempt to get at me.

It's evident that this man wants me to live as a slave from other policies he rolled out later, and added them to my job descriptions. For instance, he found something meaningless for me to be doing by 10am to 4pm in a bid to pin me to the office at all cost, knowing full well that I use that time preparing my presentations.

Now I'm planning to quit, but my people are saying I intentionally want to throw away an opportunity. What's your take?

Oboy your grammar is poor.

Who you outshine?

Sharrap!

Your wrong messi did that because Neymar bet with somebody that he must score two goals tonight... So messi allowed him to take the PK so the betting could stand.

Tufiakwa, how will a designated penalty taker give a crucial penalty to a teammate at a crucial time of a match to help his teammate win a bet? That is a super story concocted for you.

Do you see Messi giving Aguero penalty in the final 10 minutes of World Cup final because Aguero made a bet? Football is not as frivolous as you think, this is serious business.

If Messi gave Neymar that penalty, it is because pressure was too much for him, not because of any bet. If Neymar had missed that penalty, that story of bet would not wash with the Press, they will say Messi abdicated his responsibility to Neymar.

What if Umtiti join matter and start making bet with his friends, is that cause for Messi to give him penalty?

dmcdad:
Bro why you dey yarn like this na? Just one match? Have you watched Neymar at all this 2017 other than last night?

I reiterate, he is arguably Barça's best player thus far in 2017.

How many months old is 2017?

Neymars first half of this season was nothing to write home about in terms of usurping Messi.

How many games has Barca been losing or drawing before Messi pulls goals out in the 2nd half to save Barca?

I'm sure for every match you can point to Neymar turning around, Messi has 5 to his name.

Neymar should forget Ballon D'or till Messi retires or gets old. When Messi finishes, he can start his run, but I cannot envisage any season where Neymar has contributed more than Messi in the past, this season, or in the near future.

bykebyke:
Feels weird typing this,but it's Messi vs Neymar for this year's Ballon D'or.

Na lie o. It's still Messi FC. Neymar should wait his turn. One match doesn't make a season.

sebod:
Messi deserves kudos for allowing Neymar take both the free-kick and the spot kick. His selflessness is second to none.

I think Messi was petrified of repeating Chelsea and Chile penalty miss at such a pressure point of the game, that's why he asked Neymar to take it, not because he was being generous to Neymar. Kudos to Neymar for having the balls to step up at such pressure point.

bigkesh:
The funny thing is that Barca weren't amazing.....They were just getting the goals anyway anyhow

Barca were amazing in their high press, but you're right - PSG made 5 mistakes for 5 of the goals which is just unprofessional. The first 2 were keeper and defender error, the 2 penalties and Auriers absent marking for the 6th goal.

Funny enough that Congolese defender did well in the 1st leg. I don't know why they brought back Thiago Silva. And my boy Rabiot was just playing nonsense all night. I don't know why Emery didn't bring on the bus parking specialist Thiago Motta unless he is unfit.

3 seasons ago

PSG led Chelsea 3-1 first leg

Chelsea won 2-0 2nd leg and Mourinho was hailed the best ever, We heard nothing about the foolishness of PSG

Now PSG led the first eg 4-0, Barcelona won the return leg 6-1, Now we are hearing its PSG fault

As much as PSG was at fault, they needed a team ready to punish them and Barca did

Mehn it's your fault if you concede 3 goals with 3 minutes to go. Even Einstein cannot engineer such miracle.

Nihilist:
Sharrap

So City drew 0-0? At least that's one good result from the night.

CFCman:
I know right
You are 3 minutes + injury time from reaching the quarters. And the other team needs to score 2 goals.
What do you do? You totally close out out the game; then defend as deep as possible when you've conceded a free kick.

They are jokers. Right from the start, their foolish goalkeeper was playing some stewpid short passes into Barca's high press, spreading panic through the team and prevaricating over jumping for the ball for the opening goal. If I'm PSG Sheikh, I will tear up that Kevin Trapps contract tonight. It's at times like this I thank God for Petr Cech at Camp Nou and Allianz.

Congratulations fellas. Great drama at the Camp Nou.

PSG are bunch of wastemen! They shoulda sent Chelsea to play the 2nd leg for them.

airmark:
Yes generally you may call players on the left side of the midfield LW. However, 4-4-2 has been tweaked over the years and your LW in a 4-4-2 double 6 formation will never be a LW technically unless the formation will change to 4-2-4. For example diamond formation of 4-4-2 will never have LW, but LM. We all remember ancelotti's formation.

Nedved era also includes the Lippi era before Ancelotti. It's a grey area whether there are elements of diamond set-up in Lippis 4-4-2 but Zidane was often part of the 2 central midfielders, negating the need for Nedved to come inside as a pseudo-playmaker. The most I will say is that Nedved is not a flying winger, but there is no doubt he was a 4-4-2 winger as much as you would call Garba Lawal a left-winger, even though he doesn't fly like Finidi on the other side.

donjazet:
Hey, you guys need to chill. The team is doing very well right now, no need for all these squabbles and hassles right now. These are plainly summer talks dudes.

True talk!

CONTEDDICTED:
If your team scored 4 goals in a final,then yes you must score or assist to get a well deserved MOTM


IBime Don reply am sef

All these Technical committee are bullshyt. All Iniesta MOTM and Golden Ball in 2012 Euros are fraudulent. Messi smelled their bullshit in 2014 World Cup and rejected his awards, Iniesta should have done the same. How can you accept MOTM or Golden Ball in good conscience knowing there were several others much better than you, and you only had one Group Stage assist to boast of in the tournament?

airmark:
Marcelo Lippi adopted 4-4-2 double 6 formation during his period in juve. The left midfielder in this formation wouldn't be hugging the touch line like rashford and other wingers and crossing the ball. Rather, he is to feed the two strikers upfront good passes to score and also join the attack occasionally, trying to score himself. Many people see Nedved as a LW but he wasn't technically.

True. Not every 4-4-2 winger was a touchline hugger. Most teams had one out and out flyer and one more robust on the other side eg Giggs and Beckham. . . but still LW and LM are one and the same thing in 4-4-2.

Airmark and A40, Please what is the difference between LM and LW cos ayam not understanding
