Hmmmmmmm. . .is Ahmadinejad planning a coup against Jammeh?

BRIC are now major players in the game, especially since the recession.

With China funding almost all Western budgets, its fair to say that Nigeria is some way off sharing such company. As many have stated, the only qualification Nigeria holds to join BRIC is population. We hope for the Dangotes, Wale Tinubus and Mike Adenugas to continue projecting Nigeria onto the international scene for a while yet before we can talk of BRIC.

^^Some of us were here before the success but oboy, success done spoil us o! If Chelsea regress back to an also ran, would we still have the motivation to follow the team? Ol boy a! Tings go hard! Hehehehehe

@ A-40,

There is no club where both centre-backs don't go up for corners. The onus is ALWAYS on the fullbacks to man the defensive positions.

The damage Vieira has done this week means it will take me at least 7 weeks to put Borokiri Boyz back on the top spot.

I have drawn up a road map and action plan to return the Boyz back to their former glory. My chi has told me that my recent poor form is solely down to my neglect of the Fenibeso diety who uplifted me to my previous position. As a result, I will be consulting Fenibeso before every gameweek.

When RA was wasting money and everyone was telling him he is being stewpid, he refused to listen.

Now he has thrown away a few hundred million, all of a sudden, he wants to cut costs by all means necessary even if it means sacking key personnel.

RA has some very bad advisers. I blame everything on that fooooool Peter Kenyon who blew a big hole in RAs pocket whilst nodding his head like he is an authority on football.

Things were better that time jare.

I used to enter bus from Elelenwo to Borokiri to see friends wihout even knowing whether they would be home or not.

And guess what, they were always home.

Whoa. . . .I never knew 3D waz so ill. . .

Recently met Agbor guy called Ikechukwu. Asked him why he answers Igbo name and he says they have their own language but hardly use it.

Na the week wey I sell Tevez na im e go dey demo. . .

Vieira will go at least 30 points clear by the end of this gameweek.

And Citeh fixtures are looking juicy o!

Unfortunately, Ive already made three transfers for next week. . . what should I do?

Chei! Tevez done kill me!

I done talk am say Koscielny no be defender.

I done talk am say Chamhakh no get killer instinct. Some say "yeah, but he's scored x amount of goals". None of those goals come from direct effort on goal. If Chamhakh scores, it nust be (a.) A header or (b.) A cross he met with his feet.

I'm not impressed with x amount of goals cos I expect any decent striker to score such amount in a team which scores copious amount of goals. Percentage wise, he prolly aint even pulling his weight.

BlueDiva:
The only players pulling their weight so far is Drog, Cech and Mikel. The rest are only putting in 30% effort.

Drogba and Mikel pulling which weight?

A striker who hasnt scored in 7 or 8 games, and a DM who doesnt track opposition midfielders, and was responsible for not tracking Bowyer once again today.

The only person pulling their weight recently is Cech.

@ U1,

Lucky you! Mignolet won't play. Gordon got the no1 shirt.

Thank God I picked Foster. I used him as insurance against my 3 Chelsea players incase they fail to score.

Borini ke?

Borini na lightweight jare.

I'm never having 3 Chelsea players in ma team again.

BTW, is it time to jump on the Elmander bandwagon?

58 points for me this week.

Why is RA forcing Emenalo on Lotti?

Looks like Lotti is more interested in working with Paul Clement. That's why we had Clement on the bench today doing all the shouting and waving whilst Emenalo was just sitting down.

And BTW, why would Emenalo be Head Opposition Scout and Assistant Manager at the same time? Surely he should spend his weekends scouting our next opposition if he is really the Head Opposition Scout.

This style of play is prone to magnificent routs, and also prone to embarassing blowouts.

You can drive a trailer through our half, whilst they had all 11 men in their half, meaning we had to rush all our chances.

I would slap anyone who claims that Mikel was magnificent. Is it to play well and ignore the basics that makes a good DM? What daydream was he having when Bowyer ghosted off the back of him. This is not the first time midfielders are running beyond Mikel. It happens every single game.

E be like say dem don jazz us. We suppose done score at least 5 goals by now.

I no dey watch again.

Bazztards! Especially Alex and Mikel

Someone should tell DD he's got the link up play of a Championship footballer. Tell that nucca to stay in the box and stop forming Maradona

DD Shoulda scored that. DD one on one is not the best ala Barca in UCL.

Kalou shoulda scored the initial one if he went with his left foot.

HNIC done kala o. . .

I don't agree with board members picking Assistants for the Manager.

I hope Lotti requested Emenalo, and he wasn't foisted on him.

Emenalo never took Agboolas place. Agboola hadn't been playing for Nigeria for almost 2 years by the time of USA 94

There's no excuse for anyone not being able to use powerpoint or at least prepare acetate presentation in this day and age.

I don't care if the dude doesn't use IT back home. Computers have proliferated in Naija the last 10 years and even illiterates dey use am.

On a similar note, thank God for lecture slides being uploaded to the internet. I don't know how some of us would have graduated otherwise. I feel sorry for Nigerian students who never had access to such facilities due to unis with lax IT infrastructure and IT-deficient Professors like Professor Mark.

And BTW, how is Prof Mark expected to carry out research and read peer journals if not online? Does he still get journals sent by post like our lecturers of old?

Emenalo promoted to Assistant manager

Keepball is easy for Gerrard, that's why he doesn't do it?

The fact is he can't. That's why Nasri and Gourcuff disgraced him yesterday.

Not everyone can play tippy tappy. . .and Denilson is one of the best.

Not any slowpoke can make 5 to 10 yard passes. Its the most difficult skill in footie. Cats like Gerrard never mastered such skill.

Denilson has shown from his few minutes last season that he can produce in the final third.

I would remind some that players like Iniesta and Alex Hleb have no end product, yet are rated as some of the best midfielders. Denilson who hasn't even had the opportunity to express himself further up the pitch is being castigated for not having end product. And even then, I'm sure he scored some good goals last season£ I don't need to remind cats that just 3 years ago, Fabregas had little end product until Wenger gave him licence to roam.

Denilson is currently one of those devalued players who have the propensity to blow if deployed correctly. Same thing I said about Nani and Alex Song before him. My eye no dey lie. Denilsons talent is evident, just waiting to blossom.

The pastor should shaaarrrrraaaaaaap!!!

Its not about religion, but about a certain section of the country who wanna remain Lord forever.

The most muslim of them all, Buhari himself was prolly the best preso we've had.

ITs no use giving us rumours and hiding names. If the Govt deserves to rule, they should arrest these miscreants.

Who told you all the Governors were military?

Melford Okilo and Rufus Ada George were civilian, and the 1992 election between Ada George and Eric Aso was split down ethnic lines, with uplanders voting for Aso and riverines voting for Ada George.

You are right that creation of Bayelsa changed the dynamic, however Ikwerre cannot wield power in Rivers State without first cornering the whole Igboid vote.

Ikwerre is less than Kalabari in population. Don't let their presence in PH deceive you. Kalabari have as many people in PH as they do back home.

Has Cougar finally admitted to being Sauron?

At least this version of Sauron is less explosive. Maybe he has found God.
