⚠️ Satellite imagery, videos reveal at least 16 cemeteries have been desecrated by Israeli forces in Gaza - CNN

The images show soldiers leaving gravestones ruined, soil upturned, and, in some cases, bodies unearthed, a CNN investigation has found.

The IDF claims their removal of dead bodies were part of a search for the remains of hostages seized by Hamas during October 7.

Or was it organ harvesting?

And for the umpeeth time, I have shown that Maradona had the resources to close the gaps but for whatever reasons, he decided not to...

Baba, I ask again for the 20th time, is it the absence of a Seydou keita-esque midfielder that made prime messi, Tevez, Higuain etc fire blanks vs mediocre defenders like Metersecker and Frederich?
Yes, same way absence of a Makelele was making Zidane. Ronaldo, Figo, Raul fire blanks and getting knocked out by Lyon every UCL. An unbalanced team is an unbalanced team and will fail.

Whether by coaches design or by realities on ground, a golden generation should not be held responsible for failure caused by an unbalanced team. They did not pick the team. And it's not like options are jumping out at the manager either. You've gone as far as touting a then 37 year old fullback as panacea to their midfield dilemna while some other nations such as Germany and Spain were 7 to 10 players deep in the midfield position

I'hv being trying to stop my mum from consuming excess beef in her food including her addiction to indomie, but to no avail she is not gonna stop. She can eat five pieces of beef in a small plate of rice at a time. And she is not the type that use to stress herself or engage in any exercise, too much of indomie and beef is excess fat. How do i advice her as her child?
Is it poverty or health that is your concern?

Because consuming 5 pieces of meat is not excessive, and protein is healthier than starch. In most developed countries, people swap out Carbs for protein (more meat, less carbs) to get healthier

If you check Ibime's initial Post, the premise of the discussion started with the bolded:



At least you yourself don squash the DM part by yourself..

As stated in my previous response to you, there is tangible evidence that pastore coulda done a decent job at CM - that Argentina team didn't necessarily need a xavi or Scholes to deliver the goods.

The absence of a Pirlo/lampard or Gerrard kinda midfielder shouldn't be the reason why prime messi and folks should lose scandalously/Fire blanks vs Meterseckar and Frederich
Your understanding of midfield work is not developed enough so I left you to it.

What is absence of Pirlo/Lampard/Gerrard got to do with absence of CM?

The 2nd midfielder (CM) is not a Lampard/Gerrard type. The second midfielder is an Essien, a Xavi, A Ballack or a Seydou Keita. Most teams have 3 regular midfielders but Argentina had Mascherano and a big chasm of space to Messi. Of course they had no midfield and deservedly got walloped

Kaka was a good player but was a forward IMHO. He had zero midfield tactical responsibility and cannot be compared with a midfielder who does classic midfield duties and still affect the stats massively as KDB. It should be argued that Kaka should be judged against strikers goal for goal because he did absolutely nothing of midfield work

Pirlo, Ambrosini, Gattusso and Seedorf were the midfielders and Kaka was free as a bird. His classification as midfielder is nominal, he was a striker by all intents and purposes and should be judged with strikers

Kakas main strength was acceleration to glide away from players. He just ran past them like they didn't exist

But I don't see any scenario in which Ozil will glue KDB to the bench for 4 years like he did to Kaka.

We are resting for now until Gray-scale finish selling. We resume in a month or two

We are in a sell the news phase after 3 months of buying the ETF rumour

Gray-scale have 500,000 BeeTee which They are distributing (selling) to new ETFs.

BeeTee halving is in April and I anticipate once Gray-scale is finished with their selling, we start to run again but it could go down deep in the short term

Let's even disagree to agree on Pastore, whose fault was it that Cambiasso and Javier Zanetti - 2 midfielders in excellent form at that time, were left out of the World cup?

Like I said earlier, blame Maradona Biko!

And to think they could line up like this with

Higuain

Di Maria

Diego Milito

Mascherano

All on the bench?

The kinda players Argentina had in 2010 - them suppose wipe Maradonna Oraimo cord for neck for failing to achieve anything tangible.
Zanetti is not a midfielder

Whether by design or by coaches confusion, Argentina did not have the balance to win. There is nothing like golden generation without balance. C'est fini

However, when pushed deeper, he did well..

he can help the team by returning to get the ball, defending it or starting wide.

Story. Pastore was a wack CM and whatever runbish he learned of that role was in his later years, not in 2010

Argentina went to that tournament with 2 CBs barely capable of playing DM (Mascherano and Dimechelis) and no CM whatsoever

No natural DM, no natural CM, they were a wack team and got rightfully booted out. 100 Tevez, Agueros, Higuains and Messis won't compensate for a wack squad.

The coach shoulda paired Mascherano with Javier Pastore - the combination woulda made the team more balanced.

Is Pastore a CM? Another useless passenger AM

Let's go down the substitute list and point out a CM for me. That Argentina team was simply wack. You can never win without at least performing basic functions of each area of the pitch and Argentina had no functional midfield

Okay o
See am na, where is the midfield here. Not a single CM amongst them, and a CB who has long since pafuka as a DM playing DM. Why won't they chop 4-0. Many names on paper does not make a team. This team is useless and midfield is nonexistent

If we are to critically assess the 2 English sides in terms of talent/player quality, the older Generation trumps this current crop of players....

The failures of them Rooney and co dey very embarrassing tbvh but they weren't the only ones : the Argentina team 2006 -2010 readily comes to mind.

Prime messi failed miserably with them Prime Tevez/Aguero etc that year but won world cup with them McAllister and co...

E dey happen
Football is about balance

I don't agree that that England generation was better than this one nor that the Argentina generation of 2006 to 2010 was better than this one

That England Generation lacked a DM, LW and a number 9 and arguably a RB and GK. The lack of DM harmed them everytime, and they also had to shoehorn an obsolete David Beckham in a 4-4-2 outdated system Just because of Beckhams popularity. They lost every midfield battle as a result. Imagine playing Lampard, Gerrard, Joe Cole, Beckham midfield with Rooney and Heskey as striker. How is this remotely a good team except for 3 names on paper?

Argentina team of 2010 had same problem, their midfield was non existent and therefore they are nowhere close to this generation

I still have issues with Ahmed Musa presence in that team
And the fool shamelessly accepted the invitation
5 men who will always get shirt are Ahmed Musa, Chidozie Awaziem, Kenneth Omeruo, Kelechi Iheanacho and Francis Uzoho

If you watch any training camp, they are the praise leaders and practical jokers of the team. They are good for team spirit

I guess they can afford that since AFCON allows 27 player squad, but should they go back to 23 player squads, it will be more about usefulness on the pitch than in the dressing room

But this is something that you confirm relatively easily by ordering a scan. Clinical diagnosis is notoriously unreliable for diagnosing musculoskeletal injuries especially in the knee. In a high-profile case like this where the sporting goal of a whole nation is involved, the reasonable thing is to scan the leg especially since the player is claiming to be okay.

This is not the case of an okada driver being misdiagnosed after falling into a gutter. This is a million-dollar athlete representing his country and they could not scan his knee to get more information. It is either someone wanted his slot OR the FA are too cheapskate to spend 50k-100k naira to scan the knee.

The reason why I’m not buying the conspiracy angle is whoever didn’t want him in the team could’ve played their card from inception to influence the coach from inviting him in the first place .

I mean why wait till he had an injury scare on the eve of the mundial before making a move to have him replaced ?

For all we know players like Ahmed Musa appear to be filling political/NFF slot in the team list cos he’s not done anything spectacular at club level in recent times to make him qualify for an invite .
Meniscus injury usually comes with fluid on the knee so they made a quick judgement

Team was in transit from training camp in UAE to Ivory Coast after the Guinea friendly and had a very small window to call up his replacement

They didn't have 24-48 hours to travel to CIV, book MRI, then wait for Radiologist report - so went for most likely diagnosis. Na logistics.

Sadiq Umar himself is a federal character pick
