montelik: I know you have a bias for players with pace but most importantly power (e.g Rooney, Jones, Valencia e.t.c). But there is no way on earth Jones will become our best midfielder. He didn't even really play as central midfielder against Arsenal, more like a destroyer and we have had many players who were never central midfielders do as good and much better jobs playing that role for us on occasion e.g Fortune, P Neville, Rio, Johnsen, Smith, Park e.t.c. One swallow doesn't make a summer.

Also Jones was given a run of games in midfield alongside Carrick at the back end of last season and on this very forum and other mediums, people were begging for others to play as he demonstrated that he can't play the position beyond being drafted in to perform a limited function.
Bros, you think Elampiro is serious with his assertion nii? Leave Elampiro alone o.

dademola: alex song was faaaaaaaar betta dan mikel.....this isnt even debatable!! Assuming they swapped clubs, arsenal wld hav been playing coca cola league 1 football....courtesy mikel!! Back to d "sideways" cleverley, even if u bring stats dt suggest he has more foward passes than ozil and iniesta combined, it doesnt change d obvious fact that HE IS VISIONLESS, ORDINARY, MEDIOCRE and AVERAGE!!!
1 million likes o jare, don't mind Coogar. He has forgotten that Statistics and football are negatively correlated. Something wey we dey see with our korokoro eyes, na im one statistics from one useless source go dey decieve us, abegi, don't be surprised if statistics talk say Xavi better pass Zidane or our Cleverly better pass carrick sef wink

Abeg, Coogar, park well joor. Cleverly is just a motherfucking average and visionless player as well as a mediocre.

coogar: cleverley is our most intelligent midfielder bar carrick. he's got everything. short passing, passing accuracy, vision, awareness. he's an enabler, a facilitator that keeps things ticking & denying opponents the ball.
I hear you, I did forget that it is just an opinion and not a fact, and every is entitled to his opinion(s). I had to mark out just one word out of your post, simply put, 'Cleverly is vision-less', someone that has got vision will always look ahead, someone with 'even' blurred/unclear vision will have something he is pursuing, but a vision-less individual has got nothing, Cleverly passes to the back and sideways, is that the/your definition of VISION?

Be objective bro!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by nitrogen(m): 5:22pm On Nov 12, 2013
One thing is this, I think everyone here has got his/her favorite player(s), and that has blocked most from seeing and saying the truth, Elampiro and his cohorts-Rooney, Coogar- Young, Cleverly and Anderson, some others too are obsessed with different players. It simply annihilates objectivity.

That said, I just don't know what qualities Cleverly has got, sincerely, I don't know! I think there is no difference between the Press(talk about England) Coogar castigates, Coogar himself and 'dem' Elampiro.
Infact, COOGAR+ELAMPIRO and his cohorts= ENGLISH MEDIA.

AjanleKoko: The structures are there already.
If I want to hire freshers (as in fresh out of school) for any type of job, there are test regimes I can administer to access their level of proficiency.
I don't need to stress on qualifications, unless I am looking for truly brilliant people to help me build the Death Star, or something equally inconceivable grin It's just that recruiters are lazy, and are always looking for short cuts, plus the obvious Naija factor. You can automate the shortlisting and testing process easily
Better put, '..........unless am looking for truly brilliant people to help bring/come up with out of this world initiatives.....' cool

[quote author=Mr_TA]Rooneys first touch wasn't very good yesterday as was his passing but I guess the effort was enough to compensate.so I'll overlook that.[/quote]Compensate ke? We don't need that boy to replace scoring goals and holding the ball with running from one post to the other, that guy is just one of our numerous problems, yesterday, he was worst, infact, he was dispossessed easily, he lost the ball many times and he couldn't even pass the ball to a close player, Imagine a 'million pounds per month player' with qualities of a 'hundred thousand pounds per month player'. Arrant nonsense!

PS. I like the boy o, but when e reach time to talk the truth, it is necessary to just talk am.

esere826: Now imagine this,


someone reads about NL from books and then goes for an interview organised by Seun for an NL mod position
Seun asks him how does he react online when a troll pastes an advert on his thread?

You can see from the question above that if u never get into that circumstance before e go hard to answer
If you say that you report to MOD, and Seun asks u how long does it usually take MOD to reply,...what reply u wan give?

But if Seun ask me,......I go give am expert reply
i go tell am say the MOD dey craze, say im no gree answer
that i then went ahead to bash the MOD for being an Igbo, and got banned for dat

Seun will immediately know that I am an expert Nairalander like Ishilove grin
The book(s) should have examples/real life experiences or better-still case studies, sincerely, it would be easy for me to answer seun.

esere826: There is a big gap between theoretical learning and actual practice

Actual practice na 3D, it comes with bad Indian managers grin a certain mix of tools that cannot be possibly thaught in traditional education
except maybe the school gave its students some internships
I see! perhaps the traditional manuals for education are not being updated every time, an advanced country has a luxury of that in their system, that is why it will/should be easy to make up real life experiences. #My thought

coogar: he won the MOTM with that shower-of-shyte performance. carragher & redknapp in the skysports studio said it was a world class performance. grin

now when rooney carries the same blood & thunder attitude to the world cup & gets sent off, the media would pull him down again.

why should a supposed striker be getting credits for running around on the pitch? falcao, messi, ronaldo, suarez, cavani, aguero are not known for doing such - they score/assist goals.

Wait! During a recruitment exercise, how do you know how skilful Mr X is within hours and without incurring solid expenses? Cos if it is through a session where the candidate talks about his experience and what have we, then the fella without experience can make up his own since he's got the theoretical skills.

PS. Sorry for the lil digression.

esere826: well, supply always seeks to meet demand

if all coys in nigeria (including the gov) starts hiring based on skills only
I am quite sure that many candidates will abandon the search for certificates

in such a scenario, the new challenge for recruiters will be the quickest and cheapest way to ascertain applicants skill level
in such a world, I guess this will in turn soon lead to certifications to measure peoples skills
Quite a thoughtful one, like back to where we started from. It is a crazy world!


emmanuel ewumi: But the guy with the best academic qualification, does not have to be one with the best skill for the job. Ajanlekoko wants us to focus on both the academic and the skill required for a job.
I prefer work experience to master degrees
As per the bolded, most actually do, just that it is not the fault of these candidates, anyways, to discourage the trend, recruiters should ensure that those excess qualifications are disregarded, this will work a lot.
Career › Re: When We Recruit In Nigeria . . . by nitrogen(m): 1:00pm On Nov 11, 2013
Hmmmmmm!

It's interesting that when we want to hire in Nigeria, we think certificates/paper qualifications first, before skills
Oh yes, that's has been the trend and may continue to be, the system wants the best, and the people in the system once advised/and still advise to take more courses to boost your chances, the system isn't big enough to contain/absorb all, so it wants those that are over-qualified (with excess qualifications). What do we do? dance to the system's tune of course, but think of it this way, there is a big difference between the over-qualified and under-qualified, yes, you do not need to spend much to train the over-qualified.

Should organizations and recruiters not be encouraging prospective candidates to focus less on paper qualifications, and more of skills?
The best recruiters can do is this, 'recruit them, and leave their unnecessary qualifications, recruit them and remunerate them like the others-those without those certs (so far the experience is not there)', by doing that, the craze for more qualifications will be discouraged and eliminated. That is just the only solution, else, the trend will continue and the worse will happen.

PS, This recruiters started this and they should be the one to finish it.

RuuDie: Park well jor... if you were so good, why don't you quit your day job and go and manage Abiola Babes.
Why would I want to do that? except am being 'mandated' to manage Man Utd , Real madrid or Barca, any of the three, I will gladly leave my 8-5 work and fly straight to Europe. wink


The mman has a number of options to follow, just because he didn't go with yours, he is silly...
There were sensible options to follow and not the senseless one he followed, btw if it was westbrom or newcastle,then we would have been punished for that silly substitution, Arsenal guys were useless in our box, see those beautiful crosses from Sagna, a typical Bendtner would have scored if he was on the pitch throughout the second half of play, so blame Giroud and the other Arsenal guys.

and if he had done as you suggested and we lost the lead nkor!?
Impossi-cant, if a team can retain possession, then it is possible to win a game easily or not give your opponent any chance. It was evidenced yesterday, Arsenal played us like mahd in the second half and we could only enter there box maybe twice or thrice, possession football is always great, Jones left the mid-field and we lost it completely.

You will still come here and rake
Of course, he is Manchester United manager for christ's sake, you dont expect me to pat him on the back always na, he should be among the highest paid manager in Europe at the moment, so what are we talking about?


--- just enjoy the victory and let us hear word jare. angry
I enjoyed the victory, but next time, it will not go well, it went well because Old trafford is a cursed place for Arsenal fc.
As per the bolded, only Coogar/Elampiro needs that, or plus RuuDie wink

His (Moyes) sillines keeps increasing at a geometric rate, stvpid substitutions made us a victim of Arsenals possession football today, when Vidic got injured, he should have brought in a winger to play valencia's position, and valencia move to right back, while smalling joins Evans at the heart of defence, and Jones is retained at that DM, but his knowledge bank was completely empty, check out the Giggs sub too. Rvbbish manager.

montelik: I don't see how we will score with this lineup. smalling out of position, Jones out of position, kagawa out of position. we are going to look pretty uninspiring in my opinion.

its going to be important for Rooney to give special performance as no 10 and for us to take even the half chances we create.
And you expect thathuh? Don't forget that products having price tags can never be bargained for, except on rare occasions.

Make the stvpid boy shift go left for kagawa jare or betterstill, they should switch positions intermittently, aside that, we are on a long thing.
