My God, let's hope that they don't blame Kelechi for this loss, if Leicester loses today. I hope and pray they don't lose. And I hope Kelechi scores or provides an assist.

Yes. His brace on Saturday were both tap ins. In fact, I wouldn't even give the second goal to him because the ball was almost inside the net before he made any contacts.

Yup. The 3 countries I expect to spring surprise in Russia are:

Argentina - something tells me that Jorge Sampaoli will get it right. Plus any team that has Messi is a favorite, unfortunately he needs help: Angel DiMaria would never stay healthy for any tournament. And Sergio Aguero is world class in EPL but never plays well for Argentina. Let's hope that Dybala and Icardi can provide Messi the help he needs to take Argentina over the top.

Brazil - I will rank them as favorites along with Germany. Any team with Gabriel Jesus and Neymar would be a handful to an opponent.

Nigeria - If we can find a decent goalkeeper, prepare well, and avoid any monetary and other distractions, I will expect Nigeria to make a run thru the semi-finals .... especially if we are to get a decent draw.

Other countries you should keep your eye on include:
France - Loaded team but can they get it together?
Belgium - Can Roberto Martinez's team become ruthless for once? If so, then expect them to be too hot to handle for most teams.
Iceland - Definitely one of the dark horse
Germany - arguably the overwhelming favorites, but I don't expect them to win it

SportsRe: Cristiano Ronaldo & Girlfriend On A Lunch Date In "The Best Restaurant In Town" by Icon79(m): 7:07pm On Oct 16, 2017
From the mouth of the master of total football himself (Pep Guardiola):

Having worked so closely with Lionel Messi during his time at Barcelona, Guardiola is reluctant to be drawn into describing De Bruyne as the world's best.

He said: "If you want to be considered one of the best, you have to win titles.

"Kevin is one of the best and I would love him to get to the level of Messi.

"He is an outstanding, amazing player and a humble guy. But I don't help him by comparing him with Messi.

"Messi is apart. He scores 60 goals every season for eight or nine years. In the past, many times people have said 'that guy is like Messi' but it is not possible."

I don't know if they can restrict who enrolls legally. If you are operating as a school, you can't say only Christians can attend, that's illegal (at least in sensible countries). The most you can do is let them know that these are our rules, they must attend church, etc and if you are okay with it then you can attend.

o ga o. this issue of not letting people graduate is serious and ideally should only be reserved for students that do really bad things like cause harm to other students and staff. they should also outline all the offences that are serious enough to cause expulsion and have the students sign the agreement at the beginning of every academic year so that everyone knows that rules are rules. i had to sign the honor code before taking any exam when i was in university and it was just a reminder that you know that if you cheat you're out.

That's if you're going to get 100% fair officiating. But that's probably not going to be possible when you're playing against Cristiano Ronaldo, especially if they need a result to qualify. Do you still remember how they gave him a clear offside goal (against Algeria?) in South Africa?

Bottom line, FIFA would like to keep Cristiano Ronaldo in the World Cup as long as it's practically possible to do so, hence if they need to burn Nigeria to keep him there, they would.

Weather he escaped to UK or not, Nnamdi Kanu will remain a fugitive or in hiding for a long while. His lawyers and family members have declared him missing, arrested or killed, so he can't appear or move freely like every man for a long time or he will be arrested, his lawyers will be charged or arrested for lying to the court, hiding his clients to evade justice and unprofessional misconduct.
Any way you looked at it Kanu is smoking himself. When he fails to appear tomorrow, he will be declared wanted dead or alive, those that stood for his bail will forfeit their funds and also loose their integrity in law and stiffer punishment may be melted on them. He is a goner.

No wonder, he's been off my radar. Well, we can still give him a chance to take a claim if he's still the same Ike Uche. After all, his brother Kalu Uche was our best player in South Africa 2010 and Ike is a much better player than Kalu. The only problem though, we have so much options in the position he players so he's gonna miss out.

Poland
Portugal
Russia

But trust FIFA to put us in the group of death, especially if we find ourselves in pot 3. Don't be surprised if we get this grouping:

Brazil
Italy
Korea Republic
Nigeria

or you can get:

Germany
Uruguay
Mexico
Nigeria

All I know is that if FIFA goes through to form, Nigeria should be in the group of death. Since I started following soccer, the strongest African teams almost always end up in the group of death. FIFA knows what they are doing.

PoliticsRe: School Children Going Home In Bayelsa Over Army Vaccination (Photos) by Icon79(m): 5:55pm On Oct 13, 2017
You're incredibly naïve, especially for someone who claims to be very smart. Do you ever ask yourself why is it that it is the military that is implementing this vaccination? When did the military become healthcare workers? And why are they, literally, forcing these children to take these vaccinations?

As regards to your other "muguish" questions, I will not respond at this time since I am work. Or else, I would've taken a few minutes to offer you free education.


O pari

HungerBAD:
Interesting.

My advice is simple. The parents rushing to pick up their kids from school, believing the military wants to inject their kids, should also enrol in the same school with their kids after all these drama.

It shows they not only lack common sense,but that they too like their kids,needs some formal kind of education.

What does the military stand to gain harming the citizenry?and just like i told somebody yesterday. You will think with the constant complaint about the Military in Nigeria, that it is only populated by the Northerners and that there are no other tribes inside.

Anybody that has lived close to a Military formation/base knows the military conduct these exercises to civilians from time to time. From free Vaccinations, to checking of BP to eye treatments and one time they even shared Condoms along the streets.

But no,Buhari is President and wants to kill all Southerners.

Some years ago. I think Goodluck Jonathan was the President then(i stand to be corrected), 84 Northern Kids were killed when a fake teething medication(MY PIKIN) was sold to their parents who gave their kids to consume.

A Yoruba man (Adeyemo) and an Edo man (Eromosele)were both convicted and sent to jail for it. I did not read anywhere that Jonathan was trying to kill Northerners, since the makers of the drugs are Southerners.

We should stop viewing everything this Government does as evil. It is not healthy for us.

Mynd44 and Lalasticlacla what is your opinion?
