Jeffy1206:
who be diswan

Answer the question truthfully.

I would prove to you in simple terms why iPhone is better.

odizeey:
Maybe you just start following united. He has been recognized twice for his "Useless contributions".

When people dey move on to better things wey dey keep deadwoods.

In as much as I like Shaw, I want Malacia to take his spot. We need to move to the new generation. And we have only Shaw and Malacia left.

As a result of his British passport.

Any left back that has 15 career PL assists in 9 years is a useless player.

Trent makes 15 PL assists in a season when he feels like it. Shaw cannot defend, he cannot attack. Just a beefy burger body and he gets to win player of the year?

Make it make sense, please.

Yes it's difficult to excuse PYO from Buhari's failures, but under the Nigerian constitution the role of a VP is clearly defined as whatever the president assigns to him apart. So Osinbajo has some wiggle room to deny some of the stuff he had no hand in. He's not the commander in chief that is PMB. Yes as a team collectively he will accept blame but every fair person no say no be him cos am.

Of course to win elections you will attach yourself to anything that will make you win, but years from now no reasonable person will say it was PYO that built second niger bridge or lagos-ibadan railway. Same way Atiku can't claim he helped nigeria secure debt relief when it was all OBJ.

Except for playing to the gallery how will his resignation have helped? Plus he had presidential ambitions so it would have made no sense to resign.

Osinbajo doesn’t have any wiggle room.

If the going was extremely good, he would have claimed credits and actually use it as a crutch to make further claims to the presidency.

If the going is bad(as it is), he has to also shoulder the responsibility. This is the Rashford syndrome playing out in politics.

When Rashford scores, he’s a great player, second to none, the young Ronaldo. When Rashford doesn’t score, it’s the fault of the manager. He’s not being used well. He had no preseason, he’s playing in the wrong position.

Nothing is ever his fault.

ChristoBam:
How can we be talking about the reason there are no shouts for Shaw to be sold unlike Baily and the next thing to do is to bring his stats in comparison with one of the best attacking LBs we've ever seen.

Because you said he’s one of our best players.

He’s really not. He’s the second worst.

Totally useless.

ChristoBam:
Lmao who's talking about Shaw vs Robertson? Fact is Shaw was one of our best players in that 2020/21 season. And Bailly has done nothing for us since that first year under Mourinho.

Btwn I'm not a fan of Shaw. Just saying he's still a very important player for us, going into this season. Bailly is not!

But your so called one of your best player’s entire PL career was rubbished in 2 seasons by a fellow LB of another club.

The point is - how can Shaw be one of the best players at United with such an horrendous stats? It’s simply because he has a British passport.

chrisooblog:
Every APC member whether in power or not will always get dragged for Buhari's failures it's part and parcel of politics. The way you carry yourself and how well you can explain your role in PMB's government or not will determine the level of drags you will get.

This is valid and it’s an excellent point.

chrisooblog:
Osinbajo yes is part of the government, but did he take all the critical decisions involving security? Even with economy how much of his ideas were implemented? I can only judge PYO based on the assignments he was given and his time as acting president which to me were satisfactory.

Please don’t make excuses for Osinbajo.

Let’s assume Buhari was able to completely transform Nigeria into Dubai in the last 7 years, would Osinbajo not co-claim the credits for a job well done?

But now that their performance is poor, you want to make excuses for PYO? It doesn’t work that way. He’s part of this government and he deserves the exact treatment you would give Buhari.

If Osinbajo was being sidelined or ignored, why didn’t he resign?

chrisooblog:
As for Tinubu he can't be held responsible for Buhari's performances but he has to chop the cane for installing a "failure" like PMB. The bottom line is if BAT is going to use Buhari's infrastructural successes to campaign then he's going to have to grind his teeth and accept PMB's security and economic failures.

The fact of the matter is Tinubu’s only play to get this far is by joining forces with Buhari. Without aiding Buhari’s victory in 2015, he would never have won the APC primary.

Politics is a quid pro quo game. Rub my back, I rub yours sort of. Tinubu wanted the presidency but he didn’t have the numerical advantage that Buhari had in 2015.

Buhari had the North on lock down but without the capital to face PDP(a team of oil block owners) so he teamed up with Mr moneybags(Tinubu) in a deal that worked out as Buhari to go first and Tinubu should wait and come in later.

ChristoBam:
Shaw was one of the best players of the season, no come here change history for us abeg. Also got to the Euros and was one of the best in the competition.

When was the last time Bailly did anything worthwhile at United? How can someone that cannot stay fit for a month be our best CB? We'll be very lucky to get a good offer for him. And we should ship him out ASAP when we do.

Shaw has never been one of the best players at United.

8 years of failure at United.

Robertson in two seasons has eclipsed Shaw’s entire PL career(2 years at Southampton, 8 years at United).

Ellexy:
I only stated what's best for Bailly's career since for whatever reason all the manager’s during his time here has so far not trusted him to be a regular in the starting eleven. Unless he wants to continue sitting on the bench the best for him is to find a club and move.

If he moves to another club, he would have to accept a pay cut. Why should the best CB in United go through all that just because of the color of his skin?

It’s so unfair.


In another news, this fraud called Henderson that was claiming he should have been United’s #1 is already conceding long range shots in Forest.

https://twitter.com/utdyahz/status/1555938876816035842?s=21&t=HekZpRINTvXJP7xwfL3VLQ

Meanwhile, some fans think he’s better than De Gea because he stays off his line.

Oh dear….. he concedes another comical goal. Why didn’t he rush off his line to gather the ball at the edge of the 6 yard box?

https://twitter.com/onlyzaan/status/1555942575751806978?s=21&t=tO0yUdwb0oV3DkGCe8bUlQ

Dean Henderson is a fraud.

Englishisamust:
A player that cant play 10 matches straight without injury.

But he will give 7/10 performance in all those matches before he gets injured.

Shaw would give you 2/10 performance in those games.

When Bailly is fit, these racist managers still don’t play him.

JayromWrites:
Just thinking about who the 1st most useless player.

The captain with 4 relegations in his career.

ChristoBam:
Shaw was one of the players of the season just last year. What has Bailly given us in years? Not sure he can even start 5 games back to back without getting injured.

Btwn, we've got Maguire, Martinez, Varane and Lindelof all available as options. Wtf do we still need Bailly for. One of the problems we actually have is not realizing when to let go of some players.

Bailly is the best CB at United.

Who selected Shaw as one of the players of the season? In which footballing aspect?

The only award Shaw would win at United is who can consume the most burgers in the fastest time….

Shaw is the 2nd most useless United player in the club’s history.

Ellexy:
It's better for Bailly if he leaves since he'll can't be a regular, works for all parties.

You wouldn’t say that if Bailly has a British passport.

Luke Shaw has been useless for 7.5 years at United and he’s still there. Baring a period of 3-5 months that Shaw really improved his game because Telles was signed, Shaw has been awful for United.

He’s almost always injured. He cannot attack or defend. There was a time the young Brandon Williams was benching Shaw. However, at no point in his United career has he been pencilled down for a transfer either because of his incompetence or injury history.

However, Bailly is the scapegoat. United fans would rather have Bailly sold or loaned out.

GloriousGbola:
You are referring the 90s and 80s.

Please reference the 2000s.

People were buying three year old Tokunbo cars if they didn't buy brand new.

I remember when a friend came from UK and we were yabbing him for bringing sweets sold in lagos traffic. 2002 to 2010 were boom years. Companies were buying cars every four years or less.

One of my guys whose wife was in v mobile at the time got a three year old toyota hilux at 50k auction lottery

The 2008 Toyota corolla was so common I would literally see a line of the car in different colours when going to work.

I know people who used the stock market to finance their masters back then.

Maybe your parents and the people in your circle were billionaires.

Nigeria was very very hard between 2002-2010.

GloriousGbola:
Is Niger feeding them, or is the UN feeding them?
Should Nigeria also answer the ' calls for help' of every nation in Africa because we have wasteful senators?

Niger is feeding them
Niger is providing security
Niger is providing other logistics.

200,000+ isn’t beans.

GloriousGbola:
That is my point. The money us throws at Mexico and others as foreign aid is not material to a country with a trillion dollar budget.

But Nigeria today, with low oil prices, low production due to oil theft, multiple internal fiscal challenges has no business blowing. 1.4 billion. I am sure you have read that soldiers are being owed salaries.

And of course this is evidence of a larger pattern of fiscal irresponsibility in a time of want

But they are feeding over 200,000 of our citizens in their country.

So Nigeria should have ignored their call for help while our Senators pocket N14m every month in salaries?

Android22:
Wole Soyinka that worked for IBBs govt will also tell us corruption is eroding the society. lol

Most of these lots are cashtivists.

GloriousGbola:
How old were you in 2004? At least raumdeuter, who was actually working at the time can tell you.

If you were not in the labour market you cannot tell how those times were.

Nigeria stopped being good economically after the oil boom. By the mid-80s, the country was as hard as fück.

In the next 15 years, people would come on this site to say 2020 wasn’t that bad for the working class.

Nigeria went through Austerity under Shagari, MAMSER & SAP under IBB. They were tough times.

Ebenezer Obey sang “Formula 0-1-0” in the late 80s. The song described how majority of Nigerians had one meal per day.

Nigerians have always had it extremely hard.

GloriousGbola:
If you were you would not be asking such questions.

Nobody who was actually working in Nigeria in 2005 would make claims that the economy was bad at the time.

When did Eedris Abdulkareem release the song “Jaga Jaga”?

The revisionism on this thread is golden.

GloriousGbola:
Oh well, these horrible and disturbing facts have never been reported by our media. Probably because that would be glorifying boko haram

One of the biggest flaws of the APC government. Their communication/PR is dirt awful. There was no reason to hide this expenditure or to keep it under wraps.

Nigerians are already suspicious of them and yet they still make shadowy moves. There’s nothing wrong in putting this in the news. Neighboring countries help each other all the time to fight immigration or terrorism.

There’s no big deal.

donjazet:
Meanwhile enough with the alternates, do away with propaganda, from elruditor to android 17 to android 22. one who has been exposed as a chronic debtor. Now illimitable, a quick glance shows an alternate account.

Propaganda is all they know. All because they want nigeria to have a decrepit corrupt old thief as our president and no I wouldn't vote osinbajo because he has been tainted by the apc, but I know I would seriously consider fashola in another party.
I recognize that there are still some good people there but definitely not the grandmaster of corruption himself.

Alternate account?

GloriousGbola:
And we should take the man's word for it? 200,000 refugees? Does that mean Niger has idp camps for Nigerians?

Where are these 200000, non French speaking refugees located?

There are more than 200,000 Nigerian refugees in Niger.

We shouldn’t always let emotions get in the way of facts.

Android22:
BAT has never governed in the SE. They cannot attribute one true statement of his that was tribally charged. He is more detribalized than Atiku and more religiously-tolerant. Atiku married an Igbo Christian woman and converted her to Islam even changed her name. Tinubu left his own and even supported her to be a Pastor. But he is the one who will Islamize Nigeria not Atiku. Igbos don't hate their governors that did eff all for them but they hate Tinubu all the way in the SW that was a governor of Lagos 15 years ago. lol

These people are hilarious. They call Yoruba people slaves that how can they be so docile to allow one man to rule and control all the resources in Lagos.

Meanwhile, they haven’t been going to work every Monday because a terrorist in prison ordered it so. There’s no business operation in the entire SE every Monday for several months now.

But……it’s the Yorubas that are slaves.

raumdeuter:
Yes o. There has to be something that fits

When A Yoruba supports Buhari or Atiku. Its because he is a terrorist supporter
When a Yoruba supports Tinubu or Osinbajo. Its because he is a tribalist
When a Yoruba supports Obi Okwute It is because he is patriotic

One has to laugh at the entire comedy. Obi supporters in their usual gaslighting mode would try and convince you that if APC had chosen Osinbajo or Seyi Makinde instead of Asiwaju, they would have voted for him. That’s a huge lie.

The fact is, many of them had already made up their minds to support Obi. The Biafran agenda has been paused temporarily to support the Peter Obi movement. When Obi loses, Nigeria would be demoted back into a zoo and they would seek to secede.

APC could have woken Jesus Christ from his tomb as their candidate and the bulk of the SE people would still have supported their Peter Obi. I don’t know why they are lying that it’s the Tinubu choice that offends them.

MKO Abiola in his time was the biggest philanthropist that has ever walked in this country. His kindness touched every region in Nigeria. In the 93 elections, he won only 3 out of the 7 states in SE region. Abiola lost in Imo, Enugu, Rivers and Abia states.

I’m supposed to believe the people that didn’t vote for a whole MKO Abiola in 93 would have supported baby politicians like Osinbajo or Makinde en masse in this coming election? The entire Peter Obi foundation or structure is tribal and his supporters should accept it instead of trying the gaslight the cognitive elite of Nigeria.

Oasis007:
Erik ten Hag asked if he's happy with Manchester United midfield options: "I think so. As we saw in pre-season, we did pretty well there. We have a good team. But we can still strengthen the squad."

This man is a puppet.

Any manager that says he’s happy with our current midfield options is a Glazer puppet. No wonder the Glazers shunned Conte when he was available last season and settled for Ten Hag.

ETH has made his bed. If the results start getting bad, he cannot turn around mid-season and claim the recruitment was poor. ETH had a chance today to send a message to the Glazers but he’s chickened out.

Jeffy1206:
how much is your fucking iPhone, I've used android of 650k. I'm sure the money is enough to buy any iPhone. Nansense . Just change your low mentality and stop seeing iPhone as one big for nothing phone which no one can afford. Android is my choice and my next stop is galaxy fold 4.it cost almost 1.5m so Bleep off with ur low budget iPhone

The android you used at N650k, how long ago was this?

Flamethehussler:
Omo how can person diff from 11PM to 13PM lolz

13PM is 5G.

adebayo201:
You no see God.

Spurs finished in the top 4 and Conte has brought in about 6 players and he’s still in the market looking for more players to sign. Spurs have more ambition than United.

United started last season with 4 attackers. Cavani and Greenwood have gone(no replacements). Martial is now injured, leaving only Ronaldo as the only fit centre forward at the club going into the season.

And when Ronaldo questioned the ambition of the club, the media and some stupid fans made him a public enemy. Why should a serial winner like Ronaldo tolerate what Man Utd’s board are doing this summer?

“We don’t need Ronaldo” agenda crashed before the first day of the season.

GoddyOra:
Yeah a fast start helps but consistency is the key. Neymar had a similar fast start by the age of 21 (career goals), even Mbappe UCL goals was crazy at first when he was still a teenager till he slowed down around 2018-19. Similar thing to Kane who started well in the UCL goals chart but couldn't maintain (Spurs lack of UCL participation caused it sha).

Haaland has had his first big move so I am realistic in my view that if he doesn't hit the ground running and consistently performs for Man City, his UCL goals records wouldn't reach those Ronaldo/Messi heights. The man needs to be hitting 10goals/season consistently going forward and City forwards (even the great Kun Aguero) has never produced such numbers before.

P.S: I am more concerned about UCL goals here.

Aguero’s injury was an obstacle and he was almost 25 before he joined City. He’s not a good example to use here.

GoddyOra:
I like this spirit
Except another winch of a goalscoring talent comes up again in the future though cos I don't even expect Haaland to be consistent enough to reach those heights. Mbappe? Maybe sha.

Haaland had a very solid start. Even better than the Messi/Ronaldo duopoly. If he takes care of his body as much as Ronaldo does, he’s the most likely to break the record. That young man is a wizard.

Expert17:
Sporting Lisbon?

That's if they make it out of UCL qualifiers or group stage.

There are 6 games in every group stage. That’s enough for Ronaldo to do his thing every season till he retires.

Expert17:
With Bayern Munich, Juventus, ATM, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool and PSG out of the race for him, which top Club is he going to play and score his UCL goals for??

Because Man Utd won't qualify for UCL next season.

He will go to Sporting Lisbon and statpad there till age 44.

No single human being is catching Ronaldo in the CL.

Starboytwo:
But it’s Messi showing sign of decline overall using the just concluded season stats to judge. Ronaldo is 37 but he’s fitter than Messi.

Ronaldo will play till he’s 40+.

Zlatan is still playing at 41 and he’s nowhere compared to Ronaldo when it comes to body discipline and fitness routine.

If Messi(2 years younger) was the one leading Ronaldo with 15 CL goals, I would still back Cristiano to surpass Messi because of the sheer drive and determination.
