The Zola that graced EPL was almost at his twilight,  If a grandpa like Zola makes EPL all time best then Na real wa!!

See person wey dey yarn? I don born again o.

I dont get your point.

In Zolas first season, he was by far the best player in the Prem.

Makalele was also 30 when he came, but you cannot mention DM without calling it "the Makelele position". Infact, I dont know why Maka didnt make my list sef.

Vieira, Bergkamp and Henry were all chased out of Italy but still made the list.

Ginola and Pires were also chased out of France. Cantona is persona non grata in France and was even chased out of Leeds.

Stars of Serie A like Sheva and Veron came in all their pomp and glory and flopped.

Premierleague nonentities like Pique and Forlan for example have also gone the other way and shone.

Meanwhile those like Okocha and Ronaldinho who are persona non grata in Paris have moved on to become real stars in other leagues.

All that matters is how the player settles in. Zola will always be a legend, and had he come to UK earlier, he would definitely collect no10 from Bergkamp and Cantona.

Shearer had chance to go to Manchester but he turned em down. Wetin concern us? Regardless of the level he played at, he was the boss of the team and everything went through him. Newcastle of Kevin Keegan and Bobby Robson days was a top 4 team, and Newcastle of Kevin Keegan days was the highest scoring, most attacking team in the EPL with the likes of Ginola, Phillipe Albert, Rob Lee, Asprilla, Sir Les Ferdinand, Keith Gillespie etc.

Police should be run by states. They should never be privatised.

Of course I would leave out Raul and Inzaghi when talking about Champions league.

What is Shearers goal to game ratio in EPL? 1.7 games per goal.

Henry = 1.46 games per goal

We havent even started talking of assists and levels of play.

Van Nistelrooy = 1.58 games per goal


Shearer doesnt belong in their class.

Its not about Shearer or no Shearer.

If you decide to play a no 10, you will go with Cantona or Bergkamp.

That leaves a no9 and that has to be Henry or Van Nistelrooy before you even think about Shearer.

Of course FPL is not fun when they,re losing.

No be de same tin do Eldee sotay in talk say in no follow again.

^^Saeed Al Owairan also scored an equally good goal against Belgium in USA 94

If Vieira dey, Roy Keane must dey.

1. Schmeichel
2. G Neville
3. A Cole
4. T Adams
5. S Hyppia
6. R Keane
7. C Ronaldo
8. P Vieira
9. Henry
10. Bergkamp/Cantona/Zola
11. R Giggs

If the hoodlums are claiming that he is a slave that their forefathers gave land to settle, they should quickly resurrect their forefathers to come and return the old man to the village they stole him from.

My forefather was also a slave who was given land to settle. Let someone come and tell me to give up my forefather's land, lets see whether I will not remove his head with machete.

Hehehehehe. . . All of una dey crase for this thread

Make una allow Ramires settle first. Essien go soon injured again.

Meanwhile I hear say Ramires dey collect only 20k per week. Why una go vex if him continue to play according to him paygrade?

Make dem dey copy my team.

Dem no know say I get 5milla for bank. I go soon upgrade.

Watch me switch it on em like Venetian blinds.

Meanwhile Duduspace should beware that I'm going into next Gameweek on -12 pts. No talk say I no warn am cos I go still disgrace am.

I will soon sue modaphockas for plagiarism.

How you want make up over 100 point difference with the exact same team.

Make una warn pesin o.

@ Tpia,

I don't reason with binshes, however know that if any region claimed they provided surplus which went into Federal coffers, any such people looking for where that money went should not come to Yenagoa to look for it, but should rather go to Lagos.

Ndu chucks, what does your parasitic opening statement about "North was feeding South South in 1915" have to do with GEJ? Quit jumping from pillar to post.

You came here giving us reasons why you deserve to be parasites (your erroneous reason being that we were parasites in 1915 bla bla bla), now you are preaching about how Dutch disease is affecting Naija. Instead of going to knock heads with your fellow parasites about how you can reestablish your production of golden groundnuts, you are here telling me about Dutch disease, Ibori etc. I know Ibori may be rich, but if I name the 20 richest men in Nigeria today, 90% of them would be parasites who made their cash from crude oil.

texazzpete:
And how does this topic help to keep Nigeria together?

Who told you anyone in this thread is interested in keeping Nigeria together? Please mind your business.

Im still lonely at the top.

I copped 23 points today whilst Feasy copped only 2. . . . Im lonely at the top by 18 points. . .

The title "Before Jonathans men murder another jornalist" assumes that they have already murdered a journalist before now.

This Farooq guy needs to stop typing rubbish.

If the OP is insinuating that groundnut money was used to build up the South-South, please ask him which city or town in the then South-East region was built with groundnut money?

Yenogoa, Abonnema or where?

PH was built as a port to transport coal.

Enugu was built around coal industry.

Warri was built around steel.

Bonny, Abonnema, Okrika and Opobo were built off the Palm Oil trade.

Go and check all the Federal projects pre-1965 and tell me which was cited in South-South. Was it Uni of Ibadan, Uni of Nsukka or OAU Uni?

Which Federal road in South-South was built with Federal money?

Is it not the swamp they found us and left us, then claiming that they built us up in their groundnut days?

The North kept 50% of their groundnut money and paid 50% to the centre, most of that money used to develop Lagos the capital.

If they want 1960 arrangement, we would be very happy to do so. We give them 50% to develop themselves and keep 50% for ourselves.

Since 1960 is a fair parameter which they use to construct their argument, lets return to 1960 arrangement.


Now ask the parasite,

Whose money built Abuja, Kaduna, Kano etc?

Imagine punks transporting unprocessed crude all the way to Kaduna for refinement. In any known country, crude is processed at the port where it is delivered, then transported into the interior. . . . but parasites like to turn logic on its head.

Another one bites the dust. . . . RIP Kokomaster.

Who can stop MEND FC?


Next up Doodooface. . . . might take some risks next week. . . . Fenibeso has given me the go ahead. . .

You guys should be proactive in answering the question before the likes of myself & Dayokanu enter the thread.

Glazer bonds have just been downgraded to junk status by Fitch after the Bolton result. Did someone ask[b] HOW MARKET?[/b]

Wey dose guys wey talksay Koscielny and Squillaci go guarantee clean sheet for Arsenal?

If na Chelsea defenders concede 3 goals (+ penalty) at home to West Brom, we for don flog them comot for Stamford Bridge.

Its a fallacy and revisionist theory to group Anioma as a homogenous group who resisted the British as one.

The fallacy that Onicha was change to Onitsha as part of some British war against Anioma is a revisionist theory. Onicha was bastardised to Onitsha whilst the Onicha people were still trading peacefully with the British who had established a couple of factories (trading depots) in Onicha. The decision by the British to burn Onicha to the ground came subsequently, and was an individual action, not linked to any "war against Anioma". The British continued to trade peacefully with the Aboh even after burning down Onicha.

Secondly, Aboh firepower was never concentrated on fighting the British but was rather concentrated on subjugating the Igbo groups around them so they could gain control of the trade up the lower Niger, and gain advantage over their Idah counterparts.  It is ironic that after amalgamation, the Aboh later found themselves dominated politically by their numerically superior neighbours.

Finally, there was no joint British mandate in the Niger. Each individual company operated under its own auspices until 4 different companies were amalgamated into the United African Company in the late 19th century.

This so called war is a fable. Perhaps you had individual wars between different groups and the British companies, but claiming a region wide war is pure revisionism, not to be compared to the Ashanti war against the British for example.

I believe this piece is written in support of the creation of an Anioma state more than any true historical reason.

Listen darling, If I ask again, make you no tell me say match never finish. . . . cos I go ask for the last time:


[size=14pt]
HOW MARKET?[/size]

Dis week na period of lent.

Make Arshavin score before I vex o.

Is it too early to ask the question?

Wey dat guy wey open thread to chronicle Almunia good performances? Make una troway burning tyre on top in neck. Ole Barawo!

Dont mind these groundnut people. At the time they were producing groundnut, they were keeping 50% of the proceeds, but when we talk 13% dem go dey shout like no man business.

If they wanna see how poor a country supported by groundnut and Cashew is, they should go to Guinea Bissau.

We had Palm Oil production in South East region as well as Coal in Enugu, iron ore in Delta, tin in Jos, Cocoa in the West, whilst the middle Belt produced most of the cash crops. Meanwhile these desert dwellers in the core north are talking about groundnut whilst migrating South to Jos to steal land for their namas since they live in desert.

Useless people.

Our defence always have some weakness in games like this, whilst we find it hard to break em down.

This Mancini sef, why in dey play 3 defensive midfielders? Boring manager.

Anelka, DD and Malouda were just lackadaisical today. Essien just dey take nonsense shots like say na African Nations Cup.

Ramires may have given the ball away but Ashley and JT have no business "escorting" Tevez to the goal

Anyway we expected market to be bad at Citeh as usual.

Anybody that says he's better than Big L should be shot. When Big L was tongue twisting with multies metaphors and similies and the most delicious punchlines back in 1994, most rappers were still just learning to put multis together. Big L was way ahead of his time, like Big Daddy Kane in 88.

Likewise when Nas was spitting the most delicious multis and topicals in 1993, most rappers still had that Naughty By Nature OPP flow.

As far as I'm concerned I won't argue with anyone who says Big L is the GOAT even though I consider others equally highly.

I also rate Sinzu but he should refrain from talking out of turn about guys like Big L unless he's missing some HipHop education.
