Jose Mourinho needs to give Mkhitaryan a run of Games! Having him on the Pitch along with Mata, Herrera, Martial and Pogba would be hard for any Opponent to deal with!

Lingard should be relegated to the Bench..... he should be playing EFL Matches along with Depay and TFM.

Mkhitaryan would surely adapt to Premier League, and he won't need too much time to gel up with the Team!

"We know that when Zlatan is playing up front, he comes to create great assists and great passes.

“We have to run behind him because we need depth in the game. We tried to do that in the first and second half. He gives a lot as a striker and he gives a lot when he comes to play as a midfielder as well. We have to take advantage of that.

“After losing in Holland, we needed to win tonight and now we can look forward to Sunday’s match against Stoke. After the bad week, we knew that we had three games at Old Trafford. We have won two of them and now we are really focused on winning the last one before the international break.”

funlord:
“Rooney just used all his experience…he didn’t
go into the bodies, he just pulled out, great
little move, the ball’s fired in…and he’s got an
assist.”







And that – ladies and gentlemen – is how
"Robbie Savage" described "Rooney’s"
scuffed misdirected shot that was headed over the line by "Zlatan" for Manchester U’s 1st shot on target in the 69th minute of last nights Europa League clash with Zorya.

Mumu Ravage or na Savage!

Lagos—The Vice-President of the Republic of India, Mohammed Hamid, yesterday at the University of Lagos (UNILAG), charged the federal government to recognise its enormous responsibilities in shaping the future of the country. Hamid, who stated this in a lecture at the University of Lagos, entitled Legacy of Indian Freedom Movement,’ said: “Nigeria and India, as large developing countries with multi-religious, multi-ethnic and multi-lingual societies, have enormous responsibilities within their countries and in shaping the future of their region and beyond. “Our youth, with 60% Nigerians under the age of 25 years and more than two-thirds of India’s 1 .2 billion population under the age of 35 years,  are our strength. We have a great opportunity to work together to channelize this demographic dividend.” He disclosed that Nigerian youths in India were contributory and constituting their strength, considering their size. Hamid, who urged the youths to have a sense of history, said that natural experiences could have relevance beyond borders in a fast shrinking world. According to him, legacies do endure but no legacy, however, strong can last forever, adding  that legacy tended to erode and become irrelevant unless reinforced and developed. ‘’Youth should know that the environment that encourages their aspirations was built on the sacrifice and toil of others before them,’’ he said. He further charged youths to emulate the legacies of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi of India, Nelson Mandela of South Africa, Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana and Aminu Kano of Nigeria who positively influenced their generations. He said: ‘’India was blessed that a set of people of incredible talent and wisdom graced the period marking our struggle. ‘’The possessed moral integrity of the highest order; the tallest among them was Mohanda Karamchand Gandhi, whose singular efforts transformed the struggle from a campaign by the elites into a true mass movement.’’

I think the following Players need to leave United in January! they have nothing else to offer the Team except making up the numbers of registered Players as approved by the FA and the UEFA!

The Players are.....;
(1) Fellaini
(2) Rojo
(3) Jones (Released)
(4) Darmian
(5) Memphis

None is useful to the Team anymore!

VICTORY IS VITAL
"Yeah, it was difficult. We had our chances in the first half, we could obviously score and have a different match, but we didn't. All the time, they [Zorya] stayed very well organised with lots of people behind the ball. The danger was hidden but they were always ready to do something on the counter-attack. The game was difficult but it was important to win."

STAYING GROUNDED
"One week - three defeats, another week - three victories. I was not depressed by the three defeats and I'm not over the moon after three victories. We have another game on Sunday [against Stoke] and that's now the most important one."

STRENGTH IN DEPTH
"Well, since the first minute, I was waiting for the goal and it was never arriving. You never know what can happen and, to be honest, [Sergio] Romero made a good save when it was still 0-0. We always thought we could win and I had players on the bench to help me change the game. I played three of them and could have played others; my bench was full of attacking options. [Anthony] Martial gave us different speed in a moment when the opposition was getting a bit tired."

ROONEY'S CONTRIBUTION
"He was laughing and said he made a great assist. He gave me what the team needed at the time, which was a second presence in the box. He's more of a striker than Juan [Mata], and Juan went more to the right-hand side [when Wayne came on]. We started the game with a very good team, and I also had players on the bench to give me solutions for everything."

IBRA IMPACT
"He's a tremendous player. Even if he's not scoring goals, the dynamic he brings to the team, the movement and the leadership in attacking organisation, no-one can believe his age. What matters is the quality, and the quality is amazing."

INJURY UPDATE
"Let's see tomorrow [about injuries], but normally yes, normally we have almost everyone in a condition to play. Of course, Phil Jones has a long-term injury. 

FOCUSING ON STOKE
"It will be a very difficult match [against Stoke], the truth is not where they are in the table; they have a good team and a good manager. I don't look at the table, I look at their quality."


- Jose Mourinho

President talks and promises too much! Kinda getting tired of "I will" - it's enough pls!

I think it's time for "We have" done this, done that!

Hope we ain't playing bad! Kinda not feeling like watching the Match!

RASHFORD UP FOR GOLDEN BOY AWARD

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford's incredible rise to prominence in world football following a memorable few months impressing for club and country has been further recognised after he was nominated for the 2016 Golden Boy award.

The 18-year-old has scored 12 goals in 25 games for the Reds since netting a double on his debut back in February. He also marked his senior England game with a goal and fired a hat-trick on his Under-21s bow.

Rashford is one of 40 names in contention for the Golden Boy prize, which was established by Tuttosport in 2003 and is voted for by journalists from 30 European newspapers.

The annual gong honours the best player under 21 to play in a European nation’s top tier and last year's winner was none other than Rashford's United team-mate Anthony Martial. Among the players competing with Rashford for the accolade this time are Arsenal's Alex Iwobi, Tottenham's Dele Alli, Manchester City duo Kelechi Iheanacho and Leroy Sane, Liverpool's Marko Grujic, Borussia Dortmund's Ousmane Dembele and Bayern Munich's Renato Sanches.

Previous winners include Paul Pogba (2013), Lionel Messi (2005) and Wayne Rooney (2004), and this year's winner will be announced in December.

Full list of the 40 Golden Boy nominees for 2016:

Dele Alli (Tottenham), Marco Asensio (Real Madrid), Leon Bailey (Racing Genk), Riechedly Bazoer (Ajax), Gabriel Boschilia (Monaco), Julian Brandt (Bayer Leverkusen), Andreas Christensen (Borussia Monchengladbach, on loan from Chelsea), Kingsley Coman (Bayern Munich, on loan from Juventus), Ante Coric (Dinamo Zagreb), Amadou Diawara (Napoli), Mahmoud Dahoud (Gladbach), Danilo (Benfica), Moussa Dembele (Celtic), Ousmane Dembele (Borussia Dortmund) Gianluigi Donnarumma (AC Milan), Breel Ambolo (Schalke), Carlos Fernandez (Sevilla), Gabigol (Inter), Aleksandr Golovin (CSKA Moscow), Demarai Gray (Leicester City), Marko Gruijic (Liverpool), Goncalo Guedes (Benfica), Alen Halilovic (Hamburg), Kelechi Iheanacho (Manchester City), Alex Iwobi (Arsenal), Viktor Kovalenko (Shakhtar Donetsk), Ruben Loftus-Cheek (Chelsea), Lucas Hernandez (Atletico Madrid), Emanuel Mammana (Lyon), Nathan (Vitesse, on loan from Chelsea), Ruben Neves (Porto), Jules Ntcham (Genoa), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United), Renato Sanches (Bayern Munich), Jairo Riedewald (Ajax), Antonio Sarabria (Real Betis), Leroy Sane (Manchester City), Jonathan Tah (Leverkusen), Youri Tielemans (Anderlecht), Almamy Toure (Monaco).

MATA'S POSITIVE OUTLOOK PAYING OFF

Juan Mata's positive outlook usually stands him in good stead and his refusal to be too downbeat after the recent bad run of form was clear to see in his outstanding display against Leicester City last time out.

The Spaniard scored a beautiful strike and set up Marcus Rashford's effort during the 4-1 victory over the champions as the Reds followed up the EFL Cup win at Northampton Town with three important points in the Premier League.

Ahead of the Zorya Luhansk encounter, Mata spoke to United Review, the official matchday programme, and was asked if his calm approach, illustrated in his weekly blog, has proved beneficial throughout his career.

"Well, I think it is how I feel about the best way to deal with things, especially bad situations and bad results," he said. "What I try to stress in the blog is to be positive and wait for good things. I think they will come if you work well and if you are honest in your work and do everything for the team. 

"As a group of people, we’re trying to do our best to bring happiness to the fans and I think these good things will come. That is what I try to spread, to cheer the fans up when they perhaps don’t want to read a blog or see anything when we lose. Obviously, they just want to see us winning games but there is a way I can do something, through that post and message, to try to tell them how I feel. Thank you for your support and sorry for the bad moments but we will be happy together very soon for sure, like we were last weekend."

The Europa League clash with Zorya represents another opportunity to put on an impressive display before Stoke City provide the opposition at the weekend. The Ukrainians are second in their league behind dominant force Shakhtar Donetsk and played well in drawing 1-1 with Fenerbahce in their Group A opener.

"We know they are going to be tough," added Mata. "I guess they will be a very physical side but we know we have to win as, when we are playing away in Ukraine, the conditions will be very difficult. We want to be first in the group and, after getting no points at Feyenoord, we need the victory."

"He’s (Zlatan Ibrahimovic) been a leader for the team, especially when the captain’s not playing; he’s stepped up and he’s really led the team," Lingard told reporters on Wednesday. 

"The young lads look up to him and most of the older lads do as well. We’ve seen what he’s done in his career and obviously he wants to win trophies for United as well.

"He helps the young lads a lot; he’s taught us, especially me, Marcus [Rashford], Paul Pogba and [Tim Fosu-] Mensah, and helped us through the games. If we’re going through a sticky patch, he’s always there for us and is always there for the team.

"We’ve done our research, we’ve watched videos on Zorya and we’ll be well prepared, But first and foremost we think about us, our performance and our winning mentality.

"We need to get the three points but we know it’s going to be a difficult game. Hopefully we can perform like we did against Leicester."

This is a mobile phone video of the announcement of PDP as winners of the Badagry Central Local Government Elections with over 7000 votes. LASIEC Chairman, Justice Adeyinka later announced a different result. The lady speaking in the video is the LASIEC Returning Officer for Badagry Central on Saturday 22nd October, 2011.

See vexation and painment at it peak!

ChangetheChange:
Confused and mumu brain zombie



U and ur fellow APC zombies are already in crying mode , u na go cry tire today


Pastor Ize Iyamu is ahead in 7 out of 10 local Government-- Quote me again


PDP has won Oredo....Quote me

Nah!

PDP honorably lost it!

ChangetheChange:
Empty brain Zombie

PDP has already won 7 out of 10 local Government so far.


And PDP has won the local government with the highest number of registered voters in Edo State which is Oredo local Government which is In Edo South


The votes in Oredo local Government can swallow the votes of 5 local Governments across Edo State.


As it stands PDP currently ahead of APC by over 10,000 votes which is almost unassailable based on the the results that are pouring in so far.

Are you keenly following the official Announcement of the Results?!

You can do the ORUBEBE after Obaseki is officially declared the Winner by the INEC!

Wailers and false Hope be like......!!!

LOL!
They were celebrating Victory on the Streets of Nairaland, while APC is celebrating theirs on the Streets of Benin and it's Environs!

When it was reported that PDP will win the Poll by Sahara Reporters..... the Wailers jumped on the Streets of Nairaland in Jubilation!

However, with this heart-breaking News..... I'm expecting the Wailers to sing the same song!

joeace2020:
Munchausen Syndrome is an attention-seeking personality disorder which is more common than statistics suggest. Munchausen Syndrome, named after a German soldier renowned for exaggerated tales, is a disorder in which an emotionally immature person with narcissistic tendencies, low self-esteem and a fragile ego has an overwhelming need to draw attention to his/herself and to be the centre of attention.

Chai!
You've said it all about the concerned Moniker!

“I think Marcus Rashford should be selected for the senior squad next week and be unleashed against Malta.

“Including his hat-trick for the U21s against Norway earlier this month, no English striker has scored more goals since he made his professional debut in February.

“I don’t care how old you are, that record warrants a place in the squad.

“He has been the best striker in this country since February in terms of output – the statistics don’t lie.”

- Rio Ferdinand

“Marcus Rashford is playing without fear.
We suggested when Jose Mourinho came in that he wouldn’t play. He got his chance last season and he is getting it this season. I’d say take it.

“He impressed under Louis van Gaal last season and he now needs to impress Jose Mourinho. He doesn’t need to stay in the team for 10 games but 10 seasons. He needs to score 20 goals a season.

“He should think about going for Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s place up front as well. He should go for it now. He is in the team and Wayne Rooney has been left out.”

- Gary Neville

Seems PDP is not coasting to Victory in a Landslide anymore?!

Folks on Nairaland think Election is won mainly in Edo Central, alas! They forget APC still get game to serve with Edo North and South!

SMH in advance for the Wailers who think they can change the Change, instead of allowing Change to begin with them!

When I saw popular a Moniker on Nairaland tweeting (fake) results on the PDP Youth Twitter Handle..... I know something is wrong!

APC will win, but it won't be a landslide victory sha!

Icon4s:
This one concerns me as it is the state where I reside.

Ize-Iyamu is my neighbour at Ugbor. U know all the benefits of living close to a governor's house

Bro! You are being selfish here! I can apparently deduce from your comment that; Edo is simply your State of Residence not your State of Origin, also you only care for your Area not for the entire State!

That's not fair ooooo!

Icon4s:
BTW u run leave your Allie forgiveness for sports section since.

I know you will both have same party affiliation.

Nope!
I do not belong to any Political Party. But I wouldn't deny I hate anything coming from PDP with Passion.

As for the Sport Section - I'm still part and parcel of the Thread! Though just following in ghost Mode!

Icon4s:
No! We must nt allow him to escape. We will close the Airport and all the exit points from Benin. He must account for all the money he spent marrying Lara.

Thought you ain't interested in Politics except National Teams?!

FYI..... APC has already won Edo North and South respectively!

Quote me anywhere!

I'm keenly following the Results as they are coming out!

If APC wins..... Wailers would say the Election is rigged but if the case is vice versa and PDP eventually wins, then it will be celebrated as the most Free and Fair Election!

LoRdCaT:
if only depay, rojo, darmian were even a tad bit useful Them wan dey over stress our first team so.

Are they still Manchester United Players?! They are likely to be shown the EXIT Door in January. I'm pretty sure their Days at the Club are numbered!

Chai!
Potent Weed at Work! With little quantity..... the work is done!

Congratulations to all Gunners for reaching 900th page and still counting!

How I wish it's expended for a Party tonight?!

The boss also confirmed that he will play a strong side against Zorya Luhansk and it will include Zlatan Ibrahimovic who will start both tomorrow's match and Sunday's against Stoke City.

"He’s (Luke Shaw) ill - temperature, fever, bad throat. He arrived this morning and immediately the doctor sent him home because one player like this in the middle of the other ones can affect others so he went home."
