What a joke!
Grammy award is the biggest Music award in the world. Will continue to be.

Wizkid is a learner where Angelique kidjo is. Nigerians have a way of overestimating and overhyping their worth. Wizkid was good but some other musicians were definitely better.

The moment I saw Angelique kidjo among the nominees, I knew WizKid stood no chance.

What the Bleep are you saying. He was the biggest among all the nominated acts. His album broke , shattered and made records i doubt any other african artiste will match in along time. He was Favorite. Angelique didnt do quarter of what wiz did.
Name one artiste on that list that bested wizkid in all year.

No one overestimated or overhyped wiz. The whole of africa was certain he was going to bag 2 awards. He got none.

You sound like a 'surface' music fan. No offense.

Descottes:
I'd rather they let dembele leave and get raphinha tho

Na things like this dey make me vex.

Who's raphinha compared to Dembele?

Payporte:
Done and confirmed

Why do i feel uncomfortable with this deal and signing?

I don't know why I don't like this kessie guy. I hope he proves me wrong.

tesppidd:
Nna na wa 4 you ooh..

Allow us wish in peace na..

But if this una wish come true, mehn.....
It's gonna take time for Madrid to recover from the pain and shame.
What a story it will be for us

ThierryJay:
Even if they are not careful their lead might be under threat. If Barca win our game in hand, it's only 9 points. If Madrid falters twice in the next 5 games (which isnt inconceivable) and Barca wins all, then we have a title race back on our hands.

Wishful thinking.
Calm down with these permutations. It's not happening. This is Real Madrid you're talking about , not arsenal or some random club. They've got legends and talent in that team. Respect them a little abeg.

A good result. The aim has been achieved. The world knows Barca is back.

However, I really wish Xavi could work on our ruthlessness in front of goal. This Madrid team was kinda depleted. I mean no Benzema, and they were most likely lax and complacent, judging by the fact that they are runaway winners of the league.
I've seen this team fight. I mean fight.

I'm not trying to water down our victory but, it's painful to say that we could have destroyed these guys easily with 7 to 8 goals, even more. We got just 4.

Auba missed 2 clear chances that haaland or Lewa will score sleeping. Let's not talk about Ferran. Depay too. Our shooting has to be bringing goals, and not making keepers look awesome.

There's still much to be done.
But tiki taka is back. I'm happy. This is the team and manager Messi should have had rather than been wasted by useless nincompoops who made him cover their inefficiencies and carry the team ,season in, season out. Painful. Too late.

I knew this would happen. I predicted a thrashing.
This is the message I want the world to see and hear.
Next season will be massacre. The fear factor is back with the confidence
Teams will bleed.

Payporte:
Madrid is another Mallorca without benzema

Stop disrespecting that team. Without Benz they're still a force to reckon with.

BykeLaByke:
XaviBall dey pull up to your territory you carry Nacho put for back.

I feel back for nacho honestly.


Dembele has turned that guy like porridge tire.

Let's be honest. Tiki taka is barca. It's not like this Madrid team is bad. It's just that they been outplayed by our style. Just look at how lost they seem..
I'm still asking myself how they've beat us over time consecutively.
Xavi is wonderful. I hope we keep our concentration because this Madrid team will come out aggressively.
And what's this stupid thing our midfielders are doing? Dragging and hugging to stop an opponent. Busquets is great, but his lack of pace is a real issue.

jpmoriarti:
Wow: that's unexpected.

Araujo - Piqué - Garcia - Alba in defense.

This is my concern. I don't doubt the solidity of the right or Araujo.

But what are we getting in terms of attack. Dembele will be isolated and I don't think Araujo is the type to support attack like Dest or Alves,especially in this new position.

Payporte:
hopefully our players take their chances

It's auba and ferran I'm concerned about. . I would have preferred Adama starting not Dembele. But then, you never know what will happen.

If we lose this match, it will likely not be because we were outplayed. It gonna be because we couldn't convert our numerous chances created.

FirstbornWds:
Presently, Depay isn't better than Torres in any way.

In any way?

Be careful with what you cap.

ghettokid1:
I think we should forget about Adama and renew Dembele though....abi how u see am?

Forget about Adama? Never!
That Dembele boy has broken my heart severally with his injuries.

He can't be trusted. The right wing needs someone else to complement, challenge and replace him in case of unforseen wahala.

ghettokid1:
just prays that this Benzema injury takes him out for atleast 1week.. I am not praying for serious injury ooo, na just 1 week i pray 4

Nope. I don't want him injured. I want us to beat madrid with their complete squad. I don't want his absence to steal our glory. I don't want them to have room for excuses.

The only painful thing is that they'll be well rested and fresher for that match, since we still have Galatasaray to destroy this week.

WhoDeyHause:
Get ready to cry on Thursday when you are destroyed. You have not met any good team yet.

Have shame and do us a favor by shutting up.

We haven't started to conquer properly but y'all haters are already quaking. We're back, spread the word.

GrammarNazi1:
What is good about Puig?

What can he do well that other young players who started playing football after him cannot do better?

That first question sounds dumb. No offense.

When is clasico again?

I need this team to beat Madrid silly. I don't know how that idiot koeman made us so inferior to that fucking club.

We might not win the league, but I want that match to send a message across all of Europe that Barca is back. The A. Madrid win wasn't enough.

FirstbornWds:
Dembele should be rewarded with a goal

I like your thinking

With the way Barca have improved, is there any point bringing Messi back?

Bleep koeman.

My boy just did it

Yesssss.
My boys are playing so damn well

Descottes:
he is not fighting for starting shirt. He is showcasing himself to other top teams so they can be serious about signing him and offer him his dream salary.
I've read dembele's psyche, People like him are cunning and disloyal.

You may be right. But I'll give him the benefit of doubt.
He's fighting to prove himself worthy of the club

jpmoriarti:
I know you always liked the player. You're his biggest admirer. Hope he repays your love.

I hope so too.

Just thinking

All attackers for France are seriously hitting top performance level before the world cup.

Mbappe, Benzema, Dembele/Coman.

Nice trio

jpmoriarti:
His problem is lack of consistency.

I think mbappe coming to Spain will likely help him. I would love to see the media create a 'french rivalry' to get the best outta both.

His problem with consistency comes as a result of lack of confidence, which also comes from the injuries, criticism and pressure to perform.
But I like him. Despite the boos and the whistles in previous matches, he's fighting to show that he's worthy of the Barca shirt. With the right guidance under Xavi, consistency won't be a problem anymore.

Leyqute:
Wrong decision. He’s only playing so well because he wants to secure a good pay at his next club.

As soon as he gets what he wants at Barca he’s going back to his former self.

Stop being cynical.
He's repaying xavi's faith in him. Xavi trusts him. He likes Xavi.

Has for the pay talk, his agent is the problem.

jpmoriarti:
Dembele another assist!

3 -0 ! Auba!

What did they say about dembele being useless
Man is fighting for starting shirt.
Barca should try to reach a sensible agreement with him to let him stay.

jpmoriarti:
What a pass from Dembele!!!

2 - 0 ! Ferran Torres

Ferran on fire. Attackers clicking tonight
A hattrick would boost his confidence like crazy.

FirstbornWds:
Amennnnnn...

I'll say it again... I'll prefer a fully fit Fati to Halland anytime, any day.

What?!
. Abeg dey calm down.

FirstbornWds:
It's evident that there has always been an agenda against Puig from the very beginning... How Koeman allowed his hate to hover a talent like Puig is just not fair.

You must be a Twitter man .

I was like, my naira land people have to see this o. But you done do the job.

As for koeman's snub of puig, it was so obvious.
Under setien, we rejoiced that we had a standard midfielder who brought joy to fans .
Suddenly, there's Pedri, Gavi and Nico overtaking him. But Puig is still there, a very good la masia graduate. For no reason at all.

Koeman just added more dent to his career.
