Those that have won AFCON and UCL

Benni McCarthy should be the unluckiest person not to make this list. He came just after South Africas 1996 AFCON win and lost the final to Egypt in 1998, but was top scorer in the tournament. Also won UCL and Europa.

Tuchel not travelling to CWC due to catching Covid

Kokobilo87:
Another rabbish.

People can ah steal ya ah bill or surf ya ah rubbish can to ah get bills ya isa throw away. They can ah use tha bill and ah claim to be ah ya?

Ya isa not ah make tha point and ya isa on ya 5th ah post on ah tha matter

Only ah one in ah million ah steal ah rubbish bin to vote. That is ah not a material variance ina election

Kokobilo87:
But tha isa tha work of tha politicians to ah motivate ah people to ah vote.

That isa not ah point against ah ID. Isa just ah stupid excuse

Tha job of ah politician isa not to ah motivata tha people with hatred. That people ah motivate by hatred more than policy

Jodera:
How Vincent Aboubakar didn't win the best player's award is really concerning.

Wetin person wan do pass wetin him do for this tournament bikonu??

He should have won sha. His main drawback is he didn't perform in the Quarter and Semis and he had a lot of penalties and statpadding against a ten man Comorros with no goalkeeper,Ethiopia etc

The Mane POTT is still fugazi sha because if Egypt won the PKs, they would have given it to Salah.

Expert17:
Gabaski had a better tournament.

Mendy might not even make the AFCON best XI.

They just gave him best Continental keeper

If Egypt had won, I would have riot if they gave Salah POTT over Gabaski

Kilishihunter:
99 days for the Juju, One day for the Juju spoiler, E remain to deny them WC qualification, Aliou Cisse At long long last

They will probably still try to play both legs 0-0 and qualify for World Cup on penalties

timbros:
See that him water bottle. Na there him instructions dey.

That water bottle inside him towel. Him towel strong pass Mendy own

donstan18:
Salahmaleku has ruined Egypt

You mean Salat

Well deserved for Senegal. The biggest African Nation not to win it.

Congrats to Mendy

Good for Egypt.

You can't be relying on 0-0 and penalty every game

DeepSight:
From your own link -

"Obtaining free electoral ID cards involves prospective voters having to take time off work and caring responsibilities to travel to council offices during opening hours to request them. Those that can most easily take time off from work or caring responsibilities to do this are usually the most likely to already have ID."

I say its both escapist and lazy for anyone to rely on this given that there is no urgent deadline within which this can be done. Any serious voter can find time in what is at least two whole years between elections.

Conservatives are politically motivated while normal people who would usually vote democrat are politically unmotivated

Not everybody is catching HBP everyday like these Trumpanzees over political issues. By when time comes to cast their vote, they vote with the most moderate and inclusive candidate. Hate motivates more than moderation, so does religious fervour. Same reason why the North PVC collection is always high compared to South

I don't need to go out my way to get voter ID here in UK. Electoral roll write to me to register. I will never go and queue for voter ID. Only sick and twisted children of hatred like Basilico and co will go and kill themselves to queue to get voter ID.

Conservatives know they lack numbers but are more motivated. Same applies the world over, and that's what they bank on.

BlueMann:
Nope...unfortunately not

Is Loftus Cheek injured again?

Debroslink:
This was the same team that was 2nd on the league just last season. Ronaldo came and we are seeing what Buffon said about Juventus who were consistent winners until Ronaldo made them 4th best in Italy before running away.

Bruno is slowly but surely turning to Shelvey under Ronaldo.

Bonnuci is the one who made that statement, not Buffon

How are Juve doing without Ronaldo?

Ronaldo turned a Madrid team to a 4 times UCL Champion in 5 years, you are focussing on Juve who are on decline and doing even worse now Ronaldo is gone.

Though I prefer Messi, I think you should worry that comparatively Ronaldo is having a much better season than Messi, rather than trying to pull Ronaldo down.

Absolutely tragic

Could they not send a smaller man (dwarf) down there to hoist him up?

[quote author=BikeMan post=109992172]Lukaku has been underwhelming recently and I can't understand why. Only he can help himself now.

See how Giroud created space for himself to receive a pass here, dragging a defender with him. Lukaku is getting too comfortable getting sandwiched between defenders.

Gets better every time you see it. The definition of reliable and underrated @_OlivierGiroud_ 🔥👑pic.twitter.com/UYid01T8gs

Madness

Last I checked it was 3-0, now 3-4

ono:
Hmnn...They're here. Election is around the corner and they need to make money. Manipulative, mind-twisting and coercive. Evil, yet subtle. You can deceive only those whose mind have been blinded to the truth. Worry not, people are majorly wiser now. They know the truth!

You need to check yourself into the nearest mental institution. All your takes are unhinged and out of touch with reality, like believing American political operatives pay people to be active in your small thread on Nairaland, much less someone like DeepSight who has been a member of this forum for 13 years

zendi:
Woketopia is the only dystopia in which a harmless sitting president, with neither military backing nor even a feather as weapon, is accused of making coup against an electoral candidate.

Election contesting/disputing is not insurrection or coupmaking.

Umudike is the only dystopia where a career thief walks around dishing out opinions like the above

BlueMann:
New prematch shirt. Lukaku should feel right at home with this one

Hahahahaha

Rauf has done it again.

Rauf wey train Klopp, Tuchel, Hansi Flick and Jogi Love

Ah, Wetin be all these ones na Ibims

e get gist wey we no know about?

Some funny guys discuss football with us here, you will think you are discussing with red blooded men

swiz123:
You old brain has lost it... You are slowly degenerating to the most stupid person on this thread. The post I quoted was at the time when we were arguing about Horjtout being the most dribbled. In defence of him, you were claiming it's because of his high volume of tackles which reveals his style of play. To take digs at Jorginho, you made that post...

Now you are claiming that you are saying he hides under pressure when we were arguing tackles specifically... Are you losing your touch? When you said he doesn't engage opponents, it should have joggled your memory on what we were actually discussing.

I am done with you cos at this point, you need a shrink.

You are very foolish. I said show me where I said Jogginghoe doesn't tackle a lot as per your initial claim, you are talking about Hojberg.

Jogginghoe tackles a lot but escorts a lot. I didn't say he engages a lot. I said he tackles a lot in situations other players will just use their body to collect the ball. Exonerate1 is the one who said he gets dribbled a lot because he tackles a lot, and I said his tackling is fugazi because he tackles when he has no need to if he simply had body strength. To engage, you actually have to be able to run to reach a player. Jogginghoe tackles even when ball is in his favour cos he dare not risk using his body to claim the ball.

Tell me why the fool is jumping into tackle in the incidents below when ball is in his favour and all he needs to do is step across the player. Is that an engagement or a ball he supposed to claim easily that he turned into a needless tackle?

He would get dribbled a lot more than he already does if he could actually keep up with players to engage them rather than escort them. That doesn't mean he doesn't tackle a lot when his team is parking bus and he doesn't have to run to reach the player. If running is involved, he won't even get there to engage the player, they will just run past the weakling who you called a cameraman who just follows players. Does a cameraman need to be dribbled?

You better stick to worrying about who will plug your backside with dïldo for N1m than worry about discussing football, bloody rent boy.

swiz123:
Such a very weak and stupid defence. What does not engaging and hiding mean given the context of the arguement? You are actually the one who is extremely foolish especially when it comes to Jorginho issues.

Continue overusing using the bolded when you are cornered... Very soon, that disclaimer will lose its meaning...

You are very foolish. You told a lie, own your lie instead of speaking grammar.

Jogginghoe tackles a lot and unnecessarily, that I've always said.

Jogginghoe hides a lot in tough matches, that I've always said. Which part of "Jorginho hides a lot" did you interpret to mean he doesn't tackle when anyone with two brain cells know that means he hides behind players and doesn't show to receive passes as he is uncomfortable under press. I've always related his hiding to his pass volume in such matches. Your foolish brain is talking about tackles.

I am responsible for what I write, not what your foolish brain understands. Quote where I said Jorginho doesn't tackle a lot or shut your putrid gob.

swiz123:
This change of opinion can only be reinforced by confusion.

Jorginho who neither engages or tackles is now the player who flies into tackles due to his lack of upper body strength. He actually spewed this rubbish so he can undermine Jorginho's high volume of tackles. You deserve a big knock!!

You must be very foolish. Can you quote where I said Jogginghoe doesn't tackle? I've always said he tackles a lot and unnecessarily due to his lack of body strength

I am responsible for what I write, not what you read somewhere

donjazet:
See how you shamefully went to bring his worse compilation video as if there is any player who doesn't have one. I expect you to know better.

Only an utterly useless player like Bakayoko will produce the following highlights from a single match.

Below is what will happen to the escort if TT play the attacking football you keep shouting about. Thank God TT knows better than to expose that cameraman

lordfalcao:
it’s no longer for general mildfield but for Jorginho type of player metrics..

You clearly said in this thread, that you rate mildfield dominance with high volume of pass of a mildfielder. You never said it’s for Jorginho type of play, players.

So why do you compare passing stat of bissoma and Jorginho or hojberg and Jorginho. When they are not the same type of player,

You are referencing xavi and co that play in the highest possession based team in the world, where they recycle lots of passes in the mildfield amongst themselves against Jorginho who is the sole recycler in mildfield for his own team

Let’s see how mildfielders like hojberg have fared in the passing game when pressed

I am responsible for what I type, not what you understand.

Remember I crowned you number 1 in something, you have proven it again

gazeup1:
I created this new handle to hide my identity.

I got married 11 years ago. We both started working before we got married, but my salary was way above my wife's own. I was earning 195k while she was on 108k when we got married, after my MSC, I was promoted and started to earn 350k, this got to me and I started to misbehave, I was doing all sorts and would insult the hell outa her. As the cry cry girl, she would cry, and thereafter I would hear her praying. At times she would say she will one day be greater than me. That to me was an impossibility.

I can't even remember ever giving her money for home keep but we never lacked food at home (we delayed before having kids, so I don't see the need for me to give her monthly money and she never asked). I started giving her after we had kids. She agreed when I told her her money was for the home and mine for investment, but I never included her name in my properties. she knows this as well.

After our kids, it became very demanding, coupled with her office not increasing her pay, she resigned, and that was when I felt the impact of her income. Meanwhile, her pay was reduced to about 80k and mine was increased to like 600k as at when she resigned. In one month I started asking her to return back to her work as to me I was not ready to foot her bills, she never even asked for money, she would even say what I gave her is left 5k or more self at the end of the month.

Now her new journey - When I started disturbing about going back to her former office or getting a new job, she said never and asked me to stop giving her money but go to market to buy food myself. In less than 4 months to her resignation she started talking about online job here and there, I thought it was a scam so I warned her. One day, I was in the office when she said she needs me to help her wit the best laptop to buy, I tried to talk her down on buying one but she ended the call on me.

I got home to see her with a new laptop. fast forward, she paid for a training on how work from home without my knowledge, got her first job of about $200, I also washed her down on going that low for such an amount but she said it was better than her former 80k job, before I knew it, she started talking about $1,000, now it's $3,000, to $4,000 monthly. I earn lower than #1M, my wife gets over #2M monthly working from home. She helped me finished my house project, very transparent and would not hide any $ she earns.

I have not been able to forgive myself of all the things I did to her, the insults, talking down on her but in a way I think I pushed her to become who she is now. I remembered when she asked back then to open a joint account with her, I laughed her to scorn, like how would the ratio be. she saved over 6M and credited my account with everything, just for us to complete our home. I can't even produce 1M.

She doesn't seem hurt, but sometimes she reminds me of those words, I have never officially told her sorry neither have I really changed because I am just like that, I don't mean evil. I wanted her to braze up and never stay low.

Married, men, please how do I ask for her forgiveness? I don't think we have up to 2% of her type out there.

You deserve to be divorced, being frank with you.

My dad always taught me to combine family money in one pot as he did with my mum. My wife even controls our savings account and I transfer money to her to save it there. I haven't logged in to that account in years, she just updates me what the balance is monthly.

lordfalcao:
your metrics for mildfield dominance is high volume of pass. Which he delivered efficiently

I'm responsible for what I type, not what you understand. High volume is Jogginghoe and players of his type metric, I won't use the same metric to judge other midfielders. I will use the metric against him to show he is a fake at it when faced with opponents press that turns him into Bakayoko level of pass volume though. Why, because the real version of playmakers don't turn into Bakayoko at the sight of Bissouma pressing them. Not even Busquet will go into his shell, talkless of Xavi and co.

Exonerate1:
How he engages is quite irrelevant here I'm just saying the stat is so out of context.

Besides proper PnP merchants like Allan, Fred and Neves are also topping that most dribbled stat

Neves is a sluggish type

Allan and Fred play in the two most open midfields in the EPL along with Norwich. Being dribbled is also a function of how much space is between players, as opponents only attempt dribbles when there's space to run into without having to run into another opposition player.

Chelsea midfield and defence are close together, so there is no reason for Jogginghoe to be being dribbled upandan except for the fact he can't use his body and can't keep up with a dribbler in just 5 yards of space. You need 10 to 20 yards of space to dribble Fred on a normal day which opponents get against United given the huge space between their back 6 and front 4.

How Jogginghoe engages is also important cos you don't know where the ball willl land after a tackle. A tackle turns the loose ball into a 50:50. A player with body strength keeps the ball for his team using his body, Jogginghoe will jump into tackle for ball he is favourite for, and ball could land anywhere, increasing the risk to his team as opposed to a player who use his body to control the situation

donjazet:
This kain irrational hate funny die.
See how hard you are trying to make a world class player look bad. You read that article singing his praises and you just couldn't resist.

The article clearly says Mancini pushed Veratti and Barella on Rice and Phillips and added Insigne as a false 9 to keep them occupied, leaving Jogginghoe free.

And somehow that translates to "Jogginghoe dominated" according to Exonerate1

It is in keeping with all our criticism of Jogginghoe, that he is only seen when unmarked, but as soon as he's matched up man-o e man-o, he turns to Bakayoko

The article didn't say anything refreshing. I made the same observation here in the Belgium and England games who played 3-4-3 without a direct opponent for Jogginghoe. The real story is in the Spain game where they put Pedri on him and the belle-face playmaker turned into a water carrier, dropping 30 passes in 120 minutes.

I'm a Chelsea fan, couldn't care less about the tactical specifics of a couple of games in Euros, all I know is that in Chelsea, he very often faces a match-up in the EPL, and will continue to do so, and is useless under pressure costing us points.

Exonerate1:
Only thing this stat shows is he's attempting 2x the number of tackles compared to those guys

Correct. Because the pussy jumps in for tackles that other players simply use their body to collect ball.

Every single tackle or duel below shows why the weakling jumps into tackles, man is easily brushed aside.

The only pussy that will jump into a tackle when the duel is in his favour. Man even tackles for 60:40 or 70:30 challenges in his favour
