APC as a government has failed.

Of course, let’s dump personal responsibility on the government. Buhari told these youths to carry arms and be maiming their own people, destroying businesses, reducing the total IGR of the SE region.

SideshowBob:
Mbappe can dribble and create effectively. Can haaland do that? What is if you remove goal scoring and finishing what remains in an attackers body? Does haaland not need other players and attackers to create goalscoring chances for him? Buying haaland to later lose him in two years time via his release clause that can be triggered by anyone also our rivals is all shades of wrong.

Goalscoring got Ronaldo 5 ballon d’Or gongs.

I am wondering what else must a striker do apart from goalscoring. Haaland isn’t a midfielder or a winger. He’s a box player and he’s the best young striker in the world.

Any serious club would have signed him regardless of his release clause. It would have made a statement and i can bet all these anti-Glazer protests would have cooled down a bit.

£51m? Maguire cost £30m more and he’s useless.

Karleb:
Greenwood will never play for united again.

Accept this and be at peace.

He will play. He’s British. They would protect him.

Compare his case to Mendy. Mendy spent how many months in prison while Greenwood gets his bail extended.

The girl would recant her former statement and everything would be brushed under the carpet. I have told you guys the power of a British passport.

This is SE Nigeria.

Yet the indigenes of this state go to Lagos and insult Tinubu, blame him for a cult clash that he had no part in.

Meanwhile, their own states have terrorists marching freely on the streets.

It’s this level of hypocrisy that pisses me the fück off.

ChristoBam:
One thing I'll never do is roll through the mud with you. People like you that are quick to talk about incest while trying to throw insults look at their family members with lust.

Man talking about incest, replacing brains with Akara balls, evil spirits in village, because of a Convo about Haaland and a release clause . Your dirty, depraved, juvenile mind in it's full glory.

Get this through your thick skull. Antony was signed for that amount because they believe he's a talented player. Man has not played a single game for the club but you've called him a flop and whatnot because of a nairaland argument.

At the time we were after Haaland, we believed he was an exceptional talent also. But there's no way in hell, we'd sign him with a release club that can be triggered by any club in England.


This thing is as simple and straightforward as it gets. I don't know why anyone would believe we should do that deal. He's probably be signing for Chelsea/City if we made that deal that year.

But you having to resort to these kinds of insults because you don't agree shows your warped mentality. You're almost moving like you'd get your account credited if you have the last say in any argument here. Reason you're holding on to any angle or throwing childish insults when you've got no point.

My mission on this forum of pathetic brainless souls like yours is to change your mentality and I am doing it for a humanitarian purpose. It infuriates me to the marrow when a lot of money was spent on people like you to be logical and you turned out to have the IQ of a locust bean.

Release clause means nothing. Any player can up and leave at any time. Ronaldo didn’t have any release clause and he’s about to leave. The board should have focused on his talents and what he would bring to the table in those few years with Man Utd.

However, you are a silly Glazer apologist. Every decision they make is fine by you. Someone offered you to buy Louis Vuitton shoes for £2000 but it might become damaged after 2 years. You refused to buy it.

Another guy offered you to buy low quality pair of Nike shoes made in Aba for £4000 and he promised it might last 2 years or more and you jumped at the deal thinking you have struck gold. Are you sure your ancestors haven’t cursed you? This is a low brain power in display.

Fück off…….you aren’t mentally fit to open your mouth in public.

ChristoBam:
Lol I'm just seeing this. You foolishly somehow made this about Antony.

Did you realize you've been speaking trash all these while? Cuz why're you hanging on to Antony's signing as an excuse to the trash you've been spewing for days.

No one can guarantee that any signing would want to stay for years. But that won't stop you from making any quality signings. What we'd never do is sign a 19 year old with a release clause that means he'll definitely be leaving in two years.


You goofed from the very beginning. Talking trash about how Man utd were useless for not signing Haaland even with a release clause. You've realized you've been speaking nonsense and now have to resort to insults and distractions from the main argument.

Man made it about Antony vs Haaland. Jeez. Don't you have any shame?

This fool still doesn’t get it. Your brains have been substituted with akara balls by the evil spirits in your village.

Man Utd refused to proceed with the Haaland deal because he wanted a release clause in his contract and that means he could leave after 2 or x number of years if he wanted to. Haaland was cheap as fück(£51m).

Yet, the same Man Utd suddenly decided to pursue Antony with 10% of Haaland’s talent for €100m and they cannot guarantee he would stay for more than 2 years. How can the same club make this kind of decision when the Haaland deal was loads better?

I am not making this about Antony. I am making this about the board that you are stupidly supporting. The decision is horrendous. It means they are now paying double the price of Haaland for 10% of his talents with the same risks that they avoided with Haaland.

Your name is ChristoBAM so I am already sure your intelligence quotient cannot be more than 10. Products of incest can never process simple logic. United didn’t want Haaland cos he could leave after 2 years and yet they paid double the price for a player that could leave after 2 years.

If you run your father’s company like this, he would curse you from his grave. It doesn’t make any sense. The only reason any club should be paying €100m on a new signing is if he agrees he is not leaving for the next 5 years. Antony betrayed Ajax……refused to train or play and you somehow don’t think he would do the same at United if a bigger club comes in 2024/5?


Christobam, aiye ę ti baję.

Karleb:
I feel the same reason anyone don't want DDG is the same reason they don't want Ronaldo.

These guys were easily our best players last season.

United fans prefer mediocrity. Ole virus has infected all of them.

Even the players don’t want him around anymore because Ronaldo’s standards are too high.

And guess who majority of United fans are siding with?

Expert17:
The last time he played for a relegation candidate, he kept same no of clean sheet as De Gea, won the club player of the season and was nominated for EPL young player of the season.

Even if he relegates Forest, it doesn't matter as Aaron Ramsdale - Arsenal no 1 relegated 3 different clubs.

Sheffield United had better defenders than United that season.

If you put Neuer behind Maguire and Shaw, he would concede 100 goals per season.

Expert17:
That De Gea video is dated the 21st of May, when did we play our last game of the season?

Statistically, Henderson is the best GK in EPL this season, why shouldn't he be proud of saving PK of the best CF in the league? and mind you he was asked about it.

This season of only 4 PL games?

Let’s give the title to Arsenal then. I am talking about a season of 38 PL games and your comparison is a season of 4PL games.

Henderson will relegate Forest. You heard it here first.

agree with you.

When Obi loses, there won’t be excuses that the election was rigged.

It’s near impossible to rig.

Expert17:
Video length is 28 seconds; why didn't you post the full interview.

De Gea was proud of our failure last season.

He didn’t say that immediately after a match where he lost 2 goals.

Statistically, last season was De Gea’s 2nd best season at United. Why shouldn’t he be proud of his effort after a season?

This Henderson that hasn’t won anything of note in his career is happy that he saved Kane’s penalty. His biggest achievement in life is saving Kane’s penalty.

Oasis007:
I hope everyone will listen to it with open mind. There is room for critiquing and criticism as well of course.

There’s no Tinubu fan I know who says Tinubu is a saint. There’s no saint in Nigeria. What we are saying is if we go by each candidate’s CV, Tinubu towers over the others by astronomical miles.

🗣 "Slapped 2 passed me but I was happy to get the penalty over him."

Expert17, see the fraud you love to stan.

He’s happy he saved a penalty from Kane after losing the game 0-2. This is the loser mentality that convinced me this dude isn’t a United level player.

This English mentality of always finding positives from a loss is why the national team can’t win anything. Southgate lost to Italy and he got rewarded with OBE.

patrickmuf:
Well, I know Tinubu will get the best hands on deck but my fear is that in his absence a cabal might just emerge.

I am not praying for him to be sick but realistically, the chances of him giving in to sickness at his age is higher hence my fears...

Same was said about Buhari, only for him to outlive some younger politicians.

larride:
Tinubu supporters are the tribalist, the rest are not.

Radarada

Nigeria was a zoo when OBI was in PDP.

He moved to LP and suddenly, Nigeria is worth fighting for again.

When Obi loses, be prepared to see more Biafra flag on social media.

Gboy1026:
The same way Buhari, is surrounded by experts. Abi u think all these Apc members that we see in Buhari regime, who are the ones to work for Tinubu victory would not be compensated.

Buhari is an old school, ex-military dictator.

He’s not a politician. He was never a leader in a democratic regime until he became a president. There was no precedent in a democratic setting to ascertain his readiness for the job.

Tinubu has plenty of evidence to back him as a former governor of Lagos. Lagos became the best performing state……contributing close to 1/3 of the total IGR in Nigeria.

Tinubu also excelled in structural leadership that has produced brilliant technocrats like Fashola, Ambode and Sanwo-Olu. All these things are open secrets but yet some Nigerians want a young dullard over an old genius.

raumdeuter:
This is one of the beauty of Tinubu project and candidacy. Everyone is given a voice, Even Peter Obi will find the succor in Lagos that he is denied in Anambra

If that was Lagos observing Monday holidays imagine the things that would be said about Tinubu? If it was Tinibu that was governor when he murdered Anambra youths into Ezzu river imagine what would be said

But here we are. Tinubu has given everyone the opportunity and environment in Lagos to demand what we are denied in our states. Including mine in Oyo

Peter Obi and James Nwafor were largely responsible for all the extra judicial killings at Awkuzu police station. It was called the most brutal police station in Africa.

Nigerian youths were killed there on a regular basis with their bodies dumped into a river. You can imagine if that happened in Lagos, all these sons of perdition would be blaming Tinubu for it.

patrickmuf:
I keep saying it, Tinubu, Obi and Atiku have occupied public offices before now so, rather than listen to stories, it's better to take a look back at their time in office and see if what they're saying now is in tandem with what they did when they had the constitutional powers are responsibility to develop their respective states...

For me, Tinubu's age is the only downside to his candidature and that's enough for me not to support him.

Obi is just too deceptive, he plays to the gallery and for me, that's a red flag...Another thing about him is his subtle attempt to divide the country along religious lines...

Atiku is a big No. We can't have another Northerner after 8 years of Buhari, it's not just right...

The 3 front line aspirants for one reason or another are not going to do any better...

Tinubu’s age is irrelevant. Age can only be relevant in dictatorship regimes. Tinubu would be surrounded by experts and scores of special advisers before he makes any single step.

This is a guy that has precedent of surrounding himself with technocrats and a brilliant support group. Every decision he makes would be debated to death. Tinubu will not write a speech himself or quote inaccurate stats like the Philosphy graduate of UNN.

Tinubu is young at heart. He will be fine.

EXCLUSIVE CLIP
The atmosphere at Anfield can be intense 🔥

So Mikel Arteta prepares his players by blasting out You’ll Never Walk Alone during training 🎶 #AONArsenal pic.twitter.com/CjBQ3Lsn3T

— Prime Video Sport UK (@primevideosport) August 2, 2022

I am so glad United rejected the idea when Ole was there. One thing I have learnt from these documentaries is how human these managers are. You would start having a soft spot for them and understand how hard their jobs are.

After the first episode, I started feeling genuine sympathy for Arteta. They lost their first 3 PL games and he was desperate for a win. You need to see how hard he was trying to rally the boys to not set a terrible record for the club.

Now that Ten Hag Is at United, I think United should do theirs this season. Amazon has this shit on lock. They make the best documentaries. The Spurs one was good too but it was basically a Mourinho show.

Oasis007:
Jonathan Shrager: So both Netflix and Amazon Prime are competing for the rights to film a Manchester United documentary series. I wonder if Disney+ are monitoring the situation.

They should let Amazon do it.

The ones they did for City and Arsenal are too good.

Arteta took loudspeakers to the training pitch to simulate the Anfield noise so his players won’t be intimidated or distracted.

After 90 mins, Arsenal still lost 4-0.

There are way too many losers on this thread.

People who have abandoned their villages in the South East because poverty was about to destroy their souls. They finally made it to Lagos and they ask questions that they weren’t able to ask in their impoverished villages.

If Lagos is too rough for you, get on the overnight coach and go back to your village. It’s very simple. Curfew-abiding idiots are in Lagos pointing accusing fingers as if their own village is peaceful.

Dumbfucks…..

BlueRayDick:
A wise man once said: " If all you have is hammer, everything looks like a nail. It's obvious tribalism has eaten deep into the root of ur soul to the extent that everyone you see criticizing the government is a Southeasterner or Anambran(Not like those from that part of the country don't have a right to demand good governance from the government of their resident state where they work and live as responsible citizens). Are u not ashamed of urselves?

Some of u have travelled out of the country and some are planning to; where they intend to live or already living responsibly and enjoy the good of such places, but the moment u are in Nigeria or think of ur fellow Nigerians, reasoning must takes its leave while tribalism takeover ur coconut head

For ur information, I'm a born and raised in Lagos; so miss me with all that ur Anambra gibberish u are spitting all over my mention.

It doesn’t matter to me where you were born or raised. Go and develop your village. Leave Lagos alone. It’s the 2nd dirtiest city in the world with a megalomaniac controlling all the resources of the state, right?

It’s crime-ridden mostly caused by agberos that you thoroufldy despise. It’s filled with poverty and diseases and the state is nothing to write home about. Why don’t you leave this place and move to Anambra that towers above Abu Dhabi in infrastructure?

BlueRayDick:
I live in , work and pay my tax in Lagos; I am within my right to speak against government's actions and inactions that affects me and the life of my loved ones. If anybody feels otherwise, they should go 4ck themselves; not everybody will be a government praise-singer in the face of recklessness in governance.

Whatever the problem u lots have with South-easterners and the IPOB situation down there is ur headache.

Go and pay your taxes in Anambra. Nobody needs your tax in Lagos. The city is overpopulated. It needs to be decongested.

How’s a state of only 452 square miles inhabiting 24m Nigerians? The law enforcers and the government facilities cannot cope. And when there’s a breakdown in law and order, parasites like you are the first to complain.

raumdeuter:
Obi, his house and businesses in the SE every Monday must obey the sit at home. This is a former governor trying to be president yet his own state he governed is under the control of a terror group that he must also obey

He is either one of their sponsors or just a coward like his voice suggests given the way he squeals when talking

Obi is IPOB.

There’s nothing anyone can say that will change my mind. If Obi is really serious about governing Nigeria, he should be making plans to negotiate with IPOB to stop the unnecessary curfew and the impoverishment of his own people.

How can someone hoping to govern Nigeria submit willingly to terrorism? I am shocked none of these stupid interviewers on AriseTV or ChannelsTV haven’t asked him this question directly.

What is Obi doing to the compulsory sit-at-home in the SE?

BlueRayDick:
When we talk about the dangers of institutionalizing Agbero(touts) in Lagos and to the extent of the government rebranding them (calling them Lagos motor parks committee ) ; this what we are worried about .

I saw video of the chairman being hacked to death on Facebook omo!

Innocent taxpayer’s vehicles and properties were also destroyed by the warring factions in reprisal attacks .

https://www.nairaland.com/7304906/lagos-tension-mile-12-over#116149395

As opposed to IPOB maiming INEC staff and terrorizing those that came to register for their PVC.

The entire SE are observing another curfew today. Even Obi’s conglomerates all over the SE also observe this sit-at-home - losing billions of naira in trade every Monday.

Yet, the agberos(who also include 40% of SE boys) in Lagos are your problem. The hypocrisy of the average Nigerian baffles me every day.

ChristoBam:
Just so you can have the last say in an argument, you're now saying whatever and drumming up whatever no matter how silly it sounds. Calling Antony that hasn't even played a single game a flop already?

Calling Di Maria's name in almost a direct comparison to Antony. Talking about how we're not sure if he'll want to leave in 2 years. Is the case in every single signing? They could win thing here and decide they want to leave. And they could stay here and decide to play till they retire. All depends on a lot of things.

But one thing's for certain, we'll never sign a young player with a release clause that means he'll certainly be leaving after 2 years. We'll never do that.

So far in everything you've said since yesterday. Logic has been far from you.

Your brain cells and cavity should be donated to a primate lab.

You are justifying paying double the price for a quarter of a talent and yet you cannot guarantee the player won’t leave after 2 years.

Don’t disgrace your schools any further with this cockroach brain power. It’s embarrassing.

Haaland

Finished article
Golden boot candidate
Elite striker
The best young striker in the world.
£51m
Could leave after 2 years.

Antony

Unfinished article
Never scored 10 league goals per season
Only has 25% of Haaland’s talent
Not an elite forward player
75th best winger in Europe
€100m
Could also leave after 2 years

Only a stupid person with a malfunctioning brain would choose Antony over Haaland.

ChristoBam:
Dude you just love going on and on and on. Sometimes you write a lot of words just deflecting away from the topic being discussed. I don't care about Antony or whether he's the next huge flop or a future balon d or winner? This was never the discuss.

The whole Convo has been about how we couldn't have gone for Haaland because of the release clause. If Antony asked for a release clause, we'd laugh at him. He's here on a long term contract. They can decide to extend it in two years. He's our player for the long term. He could even retire here.

Don't even try to make this about Antony. Calling him zero talent cuz you're trying to deflect.

You don’t know what you are talking about.

I am making a direct comparison to a flop that cost twice as much who could also leave within 2 years.

Why would anyone with brain cells pay double the price for quarter of the talent and yet cannot guarantee such asset would not leave after 2 years?

Antony left Ajax, he can leave United too. He has actually shown his disloyalty. A babe left a guy for you and you don’t think she could also leave you for another guy? Engage your logic gear for once, dude.

Di Maria left after one year. Don’t make it seem like if a player wants to leave United, United can stop the transfer from happening. No such thing happens.

And if no such things happen cos there’s player power, why not get Haaland for 2 years then? He’s not a work in progress, he’s a finished asset that would guarantee goals and multiple titles for a small fee.

How can you people not see this?

ovoP:
is halaand worth 51m pounds? No.. he's worth way more, that was just his release clause.

He’s worth what City paid Dortmund.

With £51m, he’s made City better in the attacking department. He’s scored 6 PL goals in 4 games. He’s got a hat trick already. Rashford/Martial who would become Methuselahs at United have 2 hat tricks combined since 2016.

Haaland would win another PL or possibly a CL for City. Even if he stays there for only 9 months, it’s already a good business for Man City unlike Antony that would probably never reach such heights but spend 45 years at Man Utd.

ChristoBam:
Honestly you're not making sense. We're signing Antony now. If he becomes a world beater like they think he will, he might want to move to Madrid or Barca. At that point, he'll leave if he really wants to go. But our hope is that he stays in the club till he's almost close to retirement.

You people should be engaging logic once in a while.

You are putting €100m on a player with zero or little potential to improve Man Utd. His stats looks awful even in Netherlands. Sancho that was tearing Bundesliga apart is still finding it hard to get his groove in England but you think €100m is okay for a player that may never be as good as Martial.

ChristoBam:
It's different from Haaland, coming in with a release clause that he can activate after 2 years which means he's definitely leaving. We don't do those kinds of deals. Even Arsenal won't do that kind of nonsense deal.

Haaland was £51m. Everyone knew what he brings into any team. His talents precede him. He’s torn everywhere apart. He’s a sure banker to win multiple golden boots in the PL, but you would rather pay double for a player with no talent.

What makes you think Antony can’t leave after 2 years? This dude literally downed tools at Ajax. He betrayed his employers because United wanted him. What is to say he won’t betray United again upon his zero talents?

I’d rather have a sure banker Haaland for a year than Antony(zero talent) on a life contract.

JayKayMaybachz:


ANTONY ISSA RED

I hate this deal.

It’s money laundering. This dude isn’t worth the amount.

Why is Antony almost the double of Haaland?

ovoP:
listen to your self.. United did not want to lose ronaldo, but he wanted to leave, so we got a record fee for him..

So Ronaldo without a release clause still left but you don’t want Haaland cos he could leave?

ovoP:
Did man united want to sell Ronaldo? Did he not leave for a world record fee.. a player wanted a release clause of 75m euros in his contract, because he planned to leave after 3 seasons, but we should sign him.. not as if d player is old.. Respect yourself.. you talk as if if halaand were here, we would have played any better..

So Man Utd(the biggest club in Britain) sold their best talent(Ballon d’Or winner) at the age of 24 but suddenly the same club do not want a player that would leave after few years?

Make it make sense, dude.

ovoP:
sold them towards d end of their careers after winning 4 champions league with them, and getting replacement.. we should buy 19 year old halaand and sell him at 22 to further is career.. yoy do that in clubs like dortmund, ajax . Stepping stone clubs.

How old was Ronaldo when he moved to Madrid, you dumbfuck?

Expert17:
At least he saved a PK from a player who hardly miss.

So once he saves a penalty, he automatically gets 3 points.

Why couldn’t he save any of the penalties against Boro last season in a cup competition.

Even the first goal, Henderson eyeballed the ball into the net. He made no effort to stop the shot.
