TheSuperNerd:
Clearly Klopp was speaking of a player he has watched in his lifetime. He didn't watch Pele as he did Messi. If Klopp takes the time to view hundreds of video clips and throwback videos as I have done, he will see that Messi is only doing what Pele had already done with the football.

Watch these two clips out of so many and tell me Pele was not magic. Pele was a man born well ahead of his time and playing with a football IQ that would still destroy all defences today.

Every thing Messi and CR7 have done and are still doing with the ball... Pele did a long time ago many times and even beyond these. Many people just haven't taken their time to watch the Genius of Pele.

Bro, this would be a much bigger shock than Modric winning it. At least, Modric literally singlehandedly carried his team to the World Cup finals, along with winning the UCL. That's huge. VVD hasn't done anything close to that.

In fact, this wouldn't even be a contest if not for all the Cristiano Ronaldo's fanboys in the media who are hell-bent on making sure that Messi doesn't win it. Hence, they jumped onto the VVD bandwagon. To me, it's anybody but Messi grin

Thank you! That's my sentiments exactly! But once an African fails to score in one or two games, even there was no scoring chances, they would quickly dump him on the bench. The level of racism in Europe is really sickening.

The only solution is for us to develop our own league.

Nope. Not at all. Like I had said several times, KC should find a way out of Leicester City ASAP or else they would destroy his career. That dude has not really been given any opportunities to jell with Leicester City team. Once he didn't score in a couple of matches, then it's straight down to the bench! Compare the way LC treated Kelechi with the way Newcastle treats Miguel Almiron. That dude didn't score or have an assist in 25 games but they the team kept faith with him and keep giving him opportunities to change his fortune.

In fact, his assist on Saturday was his first assist for Newcastle since his big money move. Would an African be given such many opportunities to turn things aroundhuh

Car TalkRe: New Innoson Automated Vehicle Plant In Pictures by Icon79(m): 9:25pm On Nov 23, 2019
Before the blockade, Biafra fought Nigeria to a standstill and would've won that war if not the blockade. That's why Nigeria, and Obafemi Awolowo in particular kept defending the blockade despite worldwide international condemnation. Because they knew that it was the ONLY way they can win that war.

before the blockade, was there no supply of weapons to biafra by France?

Wow. China, Spain, and West Germany supported us? Wow, that's news to me. And even Czechoslovakia? too? That's not possible b'cos Czechoslovakia was literally a vassal state of Russia (USSR) at that time. So it isn't possible for the USSR to be supporting Nigeria while Czechoslovakia supports Biafra.

And moreover, most of the support Biafra received was mostly food and aid and moral support. Because of the blockade, it wasn't possible for most of those countries to provide Biafra with military hardware.

so what about China, west Germany, France, isreal, Portugal, Spain, Vatican city, south africa, Rhodesia, Czechoslovakia, etc. That supported biafra?? Why couldn't you win the war?
