Who even told your frustrated self that Lookman has been cleared to rep Naija, you this filthy bâstard?

Whyem15:
RCWS on land systems are relatively new concepts and most armies are just fielding it as such it will be very difficult to find the type of videos you are asking for. But theoretically, it is a fact that RCWS are designed for precision and efficiency. I will search YouTube for the video, if I find, I will post and if I don't, the absence of such video evidence does not prove or disprove anything other than the fact that it hasn't been recorded in battle.
Mind you, the navy and airforce has been operating forms of RCWS for years and there are several videos of it's effectiveness. You are advocating ASSUMPTIVE ignorance birthed from your own limited understanding. RWS have been around for over thirty years , is that your definition of RECENT❓ It is certainly not mine. You have fully remot weapon systems and you hsve gunner operated systems with target acquisition software and as such partly remote. Do you know how much a remote weapon system costs  Because you have said it's too expensive in the ASSUMPTIVE negative. Please say so. Personally , l would recommend retrofit and manufacturing it ourselves. If given the contract I definitely be able to do it 100%, it really is not that difficult. The SABRE remote units from Ukraine can be procured for less than $10k made by volunteer tech forc |

ChrisKels: Where do we place Harry Kane in the here and now?
Put me to shame by being blatantly honest for once  Since 2014 Harry Kane has been a consistent, continuous outstanding top scorer in the EPL that's 7 seasons. Add to that 67 games for England and 48 goals. He is absolutely a world class striker. He has started the season poorly by his standards and his team has been poor as well. Nonetheless, after 16 games he has scored 4 goals. In the HERE and NOW he has been poor by his standards. |

It's not my fault that you habitually overlook the rules you yourself drew up. And his team mate's stood by and watched him, you don't assume that the players is playing by himself, as it seems you have done. What did Vardy, Teilemans, Maddison, Barnes, Ademola and others do, dance and sing on the sidelines for him. Nobody can contest with Vardy first name on the team sheet , consistent, continuous top goal scorer over past 7 seasons , no debate. Consider this 14 games 2 goals for KC , Daka 7 games and two goals in the EPL this season. Who you would describe as his direct competitor. But no you guys here forget, you look at players in isolation and claim bias. In the HERE and NOW the reality is KC has not done enough this season in the HERE and NOW. |

If you have one bad game, it will be over looked have two bad games and it be will be cause for concern have 3/4 and you will most likely benched. You want to change the goal posts because it's your favourite player KC. It's naked bigotry and double standard. |

12large1: The superb performances that Kelechi exhibited last season was enough reasons to become a full blown starter this season. But, Rodgers benched him from the on set despite his superb world class performances last season. Remember, 1) Kelechi was Leicester top scorer last season despite playing lesser minutes 2) He was their best player at the Fa cup and contributed a huge amount to that trophy
Despite all these Facts, Rodgers benched him from the onset this season.. the question is, will such injustice occur to a British born player?? Kelechi also should be blamed for signing a contract that dosent include first team football He has been in Leicester city for 5 season he has had one very good season and 4 abysmally poor seasons. Leicester have tried after spending £25 million , if he was British the player would have been let go ages ago. But unfortunately nobody wants him. Try and be balanced and so blatantly biased where KC is concerned. If he was sure of his ability why did he not leave and go somewhere else even take a pay cut and prove yourself . Demerai Gray didn't get game time and so he moved on now he has almost benched Iwobi at Everton, and he is English. So you argument holds no water at all , nationality has nothing to do with it. |

Triniti: I believe his time will come, the most important thing right now is getting the team to play good football. I’m hoping that Nawakali comes good for the team. I believe his time is up . After 6 seasons of anonymity despite all these opportunity to show his talent he has not been able to RISE. He is 23 whether his age is true or not , he has had ample opportunity to prove himself but he has failed. The naked hypocrisy , bigoted double standard that is expressed here in relation to Nwakali is without measure. You would think he is the only Nigerian Midfielder playing football for goodness sake. Meanwhile if I mention any player in the Championship many will say the level is too low. Segunda Division is very poor on all levels comparatively be speaking. Imagine he is the lowest paid player in Huesca does that not say something about how much they value him as a player. There are league two clubs that pay much more in England. |

If you are able to take in the very basic premise made. I said you EARN. the right to play you don't have a right to play. How do you earn it ❓With what you do in TRAINING and in the match.

When you were comparing Lookman to Chukwueze you didn't consider the option of Chukwueze being frozen out of the starting team? I want to believe you can make simplistic deduction.

Whyem15: And if you don't have the money for the high pressure hose because all your money has to go into your feed and clothing, you would kill yourself? I'm not against the use of RCWS but there is something called scale of preference when faced with limited resources. For now, the opportunity cost of protected mobility is much more than that of RCWS. After the military has satisfied the need for protected mobility to a reasonable level, it will cost less than $50 million to upgrade all military vehicles and equip them with RCWS. For now, decreasing life threatening risks and increasing survivability of as much troops as possible is of utmost importance.
I'm also not in support of using soft skin vehicles to transport troops in the frontline, however, I wonder how such used armored vehicles are still available in the market if they are as cost efficient as you make them seem. I wonder why other militaries haven't grabbed them from the market and why the country that originally used them abandoned them in the first instance. If they are indeed cost efficient and would not become a maintenance nightmare in a few years time, no problem, I'm in support of purchasing such but then, repairing and restoring the over 600 AFVs in the army's inventory most of which are just in need of new engines will be a wiser course of action. You should also know that the army isn't new to purchasing used military equipments. The T-72s, BMPs and BTRs were mostly gotten this way. They are also not strangers to purchasing equipments from original manufacturers with spares and maintenance and training of personnels on proper utilization of the equipments included. The military has experience in both and knows the side that benefits it the most. You should also note that the military's procurement isn't dictated by the insurgency alone but also future needs, they are not buying equipments that won't be relevant or useful a few years from now due to paucity of funds.
You really think if the money is made available, they won't purchase in thousands equipments that they need and want? Each arm of the military goes cap in hand to the National assembly to beg for more funds every year and they still don't get the barest minimum that they need not to even talk about wants. As for the Tucanos, the airforce wanted a platform that can stay on the battlefield for as long as possible before needing to return to base, a platform that is cheap to operate and makes use of very cheap ammunitions to take out the enemy and they got it. If you know of any armed UAV that has all these 3, suggest it and let's talk about it. The airforce just doesn't have the money to kill a few terrorists in a guntruck with missiles costing several hundred thousands of dollars to as much as millions when there are other ammunitions that can do the same cheaply.
Procurement in the Nigerian military is guided by needs, what is available in the market, what is realistically achievable for them and what is best. The army recently bought over 300 armored vehicles from different manufacturers, they could have gotten from just one manufacturer but they needed different classes(tracked/wheel, weight and sub components), and they wanted it within a time frame which one manufacturer wouldn't be able to realistically meet I gave YOU SPECIFIC COMPARISON alternative that costs less and COMPREHENSIVELY better EFFICACY and you did not even appraise the validity of my proposition or even make reference to it. My proposition was quantifiable in relation to cost ,your entire long write up is unrelated. You neither address the subject or question the proposition. |

Danielnino00:
Komekn depicts every characteristics of an hateful person...it's sickening.. Iheanacho was in hot form last season..When Vardy was on a goal drought that lasted long, Iheanacho stepped up and took charge..He was so good that Leicester gave him a new contract.. The season started and Rodgers started benching him again.. But Komekn think Iheanacho didn't earn the right to start..
Well, I blame Iheanacho himself... He should never have accepted that new contest without an assurance of more game time...it seems like he is so comfortable sitting on the bench and earning big money at Leicester... You are blinded by sentiment based favouritism and cannot make a simple objective based deduction. Your emotive sensibilities that are anchored on bias and prejudice get in the way. You also use misinformation and disinformation to justify your delusional narrative, you simply tell a lot of LIES. You claim Vardy was on goal drought, well he ended last season 2020/21with 15 Goals in the EPL, WOW !!! What a drought of goals that's first LIE exposed. Since 2015/16 EPL season when he scored 24 goals, the least number of goals he has scored by is 13 (injury issues) he had scored 9 already and it's just half way through the season. And then KC took over and took charge by scoring 12 goals in the EPL last season. To take over he should have scored more than 15. Second LIE exposed. In 2018/19 KC played 30 games and scored 1 goal in the EPL for Leicester. To date after 109 games and five seasons he has scored 23 goals. He has had only one good season. I commended him for that very good season, with a proviso that he must become consistent and match that performance next season 2021/22 after 4 seasons of abysmal mediocrity. But of course you did not see that constructive comment. And yes if he does not improve it says he is a one season wonder flash in the pan. And no better team will take him and certainly not on his current wages. You are so blinded by emotive sentiment based bias and prejudice you can see objectivity or plain faced reality. |

Samueltemi337: most times they start Dennis as a striker but he ends up playing from the wings

This season he played 7 games as a striker and scored 4 times with 3 assists.
More effective as striker though I agree he can play on the wings too. He he is more of the modern day complete player more than any other player in the SE in my opinion currently. He is versatile and technically astute, in the HERE and NOW he is our first choice striker for me. |
