It is because they are actually the best team presently.


Balanced attack and very organized defense. Their defence is the best I've seen from an European nation in a long time after the 2006 Italian team.

If another European team will win the next world cup, it's Portugal. The cam only be denied if a South American power house come to the party (Brazil majorly, Argentina is currently trash)

World Cup or Euros is not 1+1. Any team can fall at any time.

Skimpledawg:
e don truly be for Tammy.

Kane, Ings, Calvert all ahead of him. I feel for him

Add Ollie Watkins, Rashford and Greenwood.

Na the desperation of needing to score goals to compete with fellow England strikers make am dey drag penalty with Jorginho.

gensteejay:
I don't think the government will toe the military path as that will surely make things much worse for them.

The only thing FG can do is to sincerely implement changes in the police force.

Personally, I don't want the protests to stop.

Apart from the SARS/police brutality quagmire, the youths (including myself) need to protest peacefully against the humongous pay and allowances of the National Assembly, the decades-long issue of epileptic power supply, and clamor for restructuring, just to mention a few.

If FG doesn't strategically force these protests to end by caving into some key requests of ASUU in a bid to make sure students go back to school, I don't think these protests will stop anytime soon.

Critical mass of Nigerians don't have that level of education or awareness abeg. If handshake reach elbow and the top politicians get fed up, N1,000 Naira each to area boys will chase the protestors. The same area boys protesting with you today will be back to beat you in two weeks time if the protest continues. Military is not needed sef.

Roland17:
Yet someone tried to isolate corruption from the troubling levels of poverty, unemployment and insecurity witnessed in Nigeria! I can't remember that post but I will look for it.

There are few among the protestors whose protest is for real change, but mass majority of protestors make for unreliable bedfellows to the real agitants. Once Govt address some Police matters, and chase away the lily livered whose only concern is SARS, the remaining revolutionaries like Sowore and co will be hung out to dry and left to bear the punishment alone.

Nigerians who sell their vote to hoodlums for Garri and Indomie can never follow through with a revolution. Life too sweet jare.

The way Politicians are paying hoodlums to disrupt protest shows they are scared of these protests spiralling into a real call for change.

I trust Nigerians sha. All this protest will lead nowhere. As soon as military show, it's to your tents oh Israel.

BlueAngel444:
Maguire ruined a beautiful game Mount and James Reece have been bossing all the while.

Even with Mount's indecision at times, Rashford has just been invisible or playing Trash. Manu players have cost England this game

Rashford needs to watch it. Once England get one or two good wingers, he will no longer merit a place in the squad. He is down the pecking order for CF with Kane and Ings ahead of him, potentially DCL soon. On the wings, Sterling and Sancho are ahead of him and truth be told Grealish should.have passed him now if to say this life balance.

timay:
Thanks for the correction. Exactly how it is

All this Client welfare talk is just BS. He's only after agent fees. The reason he was fighting Man utd for Pogba is because any potential sale means more cashing out , and not because he loves Pogba like a son

He will still hammer on Pogba sale. A desperate club would be willing to give him 25m and give Pogba 25m to get Pogba on a free. Pogba really play una like mugu. Only 8 months to go before he lands his big payday. £89m don waka

BlueAngel444:
hmm, really, so he wanted fees up to €45m but only collected €10m from Dortmund who agreed the same deal with a RC of €75m. Hmm, ok o

Slightly incorrect from Timay. He wanted agent fees of 25 meaning the total outlay would have been 45. He may accept less at Dortmund cos Dortmund will let him sell the player within 18 months, allowing him to cash out twice in 18 months. Dortmund also accepted 65m release clause so a sale would be easy.

Melvyn11:
All agents make their money from agent fees and he does nothing without the players permission. Anything the players want he gives them. He doesn't act on his own accord.

The kind of player that goes for Raiola as an agent is often the type of player you don't want in your club because they will turn your dressing room upside down in chase of money. Players choose their agent, not vice-versa and Raiola is the agent to the greedy.

Melvyn11:
This is not accurate at all. His bad reputation primarily comes from the fact that he's fiercely loyal towards his players and prioritizes their well-being above everything. I have never heard that he fell out with one of his clients because he always gets them what they want. As a club, you have a problem the moment the player wants out and you want him to stay. In such situations, Raiola is pretty much your nightmare. Funny thing is, clubs complain about him but when he's on their side, they have absolutely no problem with his methods.

Well, that's exactly why big clubs don't like dealing with him. He makes his money from agent fees and is always hawking his players around like pure water and will abuse the players club to do so.

BlueAngel444:
Dortmund, Juve signed his players na. I know he is vocal, probably too vocal especially when his players, like pogba, start flopping and their values begin decreasing. Then there is his high agent fees.

But see eh, we are talking about Haaland'er here o . It's like buying a cheaper or factory sold Mbappe for €75m. Even if na €25m agent fee, is it not worth it?

Dortmund is a selling club. They are in it to make money from the player after just one or two years and so is Raiola so they have good arrangement that Raiola will hawk the player for them and they can both benefit. This is different from a big club like Chelsea that will want to keep the player for 7 to 10 years and will not appreciate Raiola trying to sell the player every transfer window.

DontBullshitMe:
Why are you ruling out coincidence?

He is Balotelli's agent. Balotelli played for City and Liverpool.

Once bitten, twice shy.

Pep can never go for Raiola client after Ibra experience

HewlettPackard:
Baba abeg stick to the spreadsheet business, hooliganism no fit you one day, see how your lines dey disconnect.

You be careless nigga to dey raise shoulder for Senior man. Leave all dem winchi man talks before I send my smalla dem to kpai kpai you.

BlueAngel444:
is there a reason for that?

Yes, Raiola clients destabilise their clubs, hold them for ransom for money and run down their contracts while Raiola is always very abusive to clubs managers and CEOs

Chelsea have never had a Raiola client to my knowledge and that's deliberate. Other clubs like Liverpool, Man City etc also won't touch them.

BlueAngel444:
Haaland to Chelsea next summer

May he join either Madrid or Chelsea can I get an Amen

Kai, if Lampard, Cech and Marina spirit pull it off, may holy thunder scatter those shouting Lampard out. Amen. Amen.

Chelsea will never sign Raiola client

Nezzjnr:
Omo those words should never be heard if you no belong oo

Maintain. Na careless niggas wey no caprison go dey use the lingo woto woto when dem no belong. Senior men dem done confam me since.

iamoyindamola:
Covid-19 is affecting fpl ffs
Cr7 contracting the virus means all Portugal NT players must self isolate.
Pernadez and majority of wolves players are affected

Good thing I don't have any Portuguese players

Unlimited22:
Lol. Go and look at Havertz top speed records. Don't let the languid, Ozil-like style fool you.

That's good to know cos I hardly see bro at full speed

Unlimited22:
Our fastest defender is Tomori, by a mile. He's top 5 fastest at the whole club. Top 3 maybe.

Only Pulisic, Werner and maybe Havertz might be faster.

Havertz ain't faster than no Tomori. Havertz cannot be in out top10 fastest players sef

Werner is the fastest, followed by Tomori then Pulisic

obainojazz:
why people never hear the slangs maybe is because it’s not spoken to everyone and not spoken by everyone. One word like wida you will make men ask where you belong..

Some of these slangs are slangs used in the early 90s that disappeared and came back. Slangs like wida na

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Jokes apart, is this how you guys speak in PH? I've never lived there before
I know say na cultist yarns, but this is all I've been seeing on SM all day
[/color]

As senior man wey don lap the London lifestyle tey tey, I no know whether smalla dem dey really use these slangs regularly abi na joke. Make Nezzjnr and Obainojazz confam.

larride:
SARS out

SWAT in

The name SWAT does not indicate a unit that will be on the street dealing with civilians and doing investigative work. SWAT teams are usually called in by other security forces when water don pass garri. Let's not assume this is SARS in another clothing until we see their brief. They could make a start by defining their brief and rules of engagement to convince Nigerians. Also they could make a statement of intent by handing over command of the unit to Abba Kyari.

Emaprince:
LOL. No sir

Then it must be these ones. . .

Roland17:
All join!!!

Na the runs girls Emaprince dey talk about be dis

Elnino4ladies:
Wike said NO TO PROTESTS in Rivers tomorrow... There will be lots of casualties in Rivers tomorrow.

It's too late. When Watsapps are circulating around PH that Wike has given the go ahead to protest. Unless Wike go send town crier to every hood to warn them, some boys think say na green light.

BlueRayDick:
Dem don dey drag Ur babe ó, trust Nigerians that are angry by default

Cuppy wey dey move around with SARS as personal security, why she go protest? Even Davido when he entered protest must have had several Police guys in plain clothes with concealed weapons guarding him.

Cuppy should kukuma tell us there is nothing street about her than all these stories. These people can't even step out the house without serious armed MOPOL and outriders. You can't expect her to be marching street with street boys. She would be more worried about street boys molesting her. You can't expect Bill Gates daughter to join BLM protest jare. Even her father will warn her not to dare it.

BlueRayDick:
I'm afraid you are right on this one.

There's a worrying silence from the northern parts of the country ; giving a kind of impression that criminals abound in the south hence why they get rounded up by SARS officers every now and then as such it is the criminals that are currently protesting against the SARS officials dealing with them right now.

We must give it to people like Aisha Yesufu and other northerners who have seen the SARS menance as injustice to one, injustice to all....but then northerners need to see things beyond the " them versus us" lens they use to look at matters like this.

If Americans, Europeans, our Fellow West Africans like Ghanaians and people of other races could speak against the ills of this SARS, It leaves a bad taste in the mouth that those we all claim one Nigeria with will call us all yahoo boys, fraudsters and kidnappers as such SARS should continue whatever they've been doing to us

North do not have the same problem with Police. If any Policeman fückup for North, mob will light him and their leaders will ensure mob is not touched. SARZ problem is a Southern problem. A Northerner is ready to lose his life than be held to ransome and passersby will quickly jump in sef.

This SARS officer says he just finished 5 years in academy, him mama never see anything, una want come spoil him market. His gun carries 30 bullets and he will waste 29 on protesters, then use the last bullet confirm himself.

End SARS protesters done spoil marker sha. Na armed robberies go sure pass for these ex-SARS guys

afrodoc2:
LOL. People do that sha but i am not greedy and i don't have that level of courage. It takes greed and bold face to do that and for a guy who has been working in the UK to go back and do that he must have loads of both traits.

Also it is a bit easier for physicians because the early part of their training is similar before they now focus on one aspect so Haematologist can still try and do wuruwuru to the answer in another medical specialty. However Gynae to Cardiology go just dey kill people dey go.

But are you sure the guy badmouthing him is not just being envious?

Na female doctor come cast him matter. The guy was still in training in Haematology and was still years away from making Consultant sef. I don forget which specialty he go practice for Lag but the girl was just shaking her head and said she distanced herself from him the minute she saw what he was doing.

afrodoc2:
I never get drunk, i don't drink and drive and will never allow someone who has had alcohol drive me. Life no get duplicate.

Comot for road. That's how one of my Haematologist colleague who acts holy in UK went and set up Hospital in a different specialty in Lagos, na one of our other Doctor friend come report say the guy is practising outside scope because na there market dey. How are we sure a Gynaecologist Afrodoc won't set up shop as a Cardiac specialist in Lagos in the nearest future?

afrodoc2:
You are very correct. I am one of the few incorruptible Nigerians left.

You will still go home, your cousin will take you to bar, drive you home drunk and you will give Police money to let you guys pass.

chic2pimp:
Since when Did you relocate?

I still do runs for my people from jand. Money talks.

BlueMann:
It's not so na...some of us are still good na

I know say I be good boy. Vote me as president and see dramatic changes.

Have you ever paid or attempted to pay to runs NYSC or change your posting?

Have you ever given your brother money so his name can appear on a school or university list, or to be shortlisted for interview?

We have gone so far past corruption in Naija, we don't even know what Corruption is again.
