It's started from Ibra - they claimed he's too old for the League. Ibra silent them by sealing and winning his first ever Trophy in England - 1 Game, 1 Trophy!

They later bounced on Bailey - United was scammed by Villarreal they said! After the Community Shield..... they change gear to; the Lad is a Tout, because they couldn't believe what they saw on their TV Sets!

They jumped and barked at Jose Mourinho for side-lining Schweinsteiger from the First Team. The same Schweinsteiger that Pep discarded at Bayern for his fitness?! Ancelotti even ruled it out of taking him back!

What else?! Pogba is overrated, United overpaid for him. LOL! At what age Bale was signed for a Transfer Record by Real Madrid? What Titles did he win to deserve the Price Tag?!

Wailers should cease masturbating now..... cos it's obvious that the Fear Factor is Back at the Theatre of Dream!


Proudly a United Fan!

FG should leave this Trash for LAWMA! Do they think we are blind Followers?! They can just throw anything at all?!

Honorable Jibrin has enough Evidences that implicate Dogara and Co! I do not know what EFCC is waiting for?!

Are they only active at witch-hunting the Opposition or old Foes?! FG is making a Chess Board out of Nigerians!

FG should probe Dogara and Co or give up on the cosmetic Anti-Corruption Crusade..... we would all eventually agree the Crusade is SELECTIVE!

I am not sure this your Beer Parlour Post would make FP!

The Source has said it all! You need to look for a better, credible and popular Source, if you want it to make FP!

Just advising!

Chestar5:
Money dont win league

Go back to Chelsea Thread NOW!!!

If PMB eventually sweeps Jibrin allegations on Budget paddling against Dogara and Co under the Carpet, I will officially resign my support for him and his administration!

I'm ain't a blind Follower, and my loyalty belongs to Nigeria not a particular Individual or a Political Party!

I will also believe that the Presidency is only witch-hunting the Opposition with the Anti-corruption Crusade!

I am following Jibrin's Handle and his Tweets, and I can authoritatively say that he's not an Empty Kettle!

PMB shouldn't be biased and selective! Dogara and Co shouldn't be shielded from being probed! They should be questioned by the EFCC, arraigned and tried justly, and if found guilty; They should be penalized accordingly!

If the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki is standing Trials, I'm seeing no reason why a mere Speaker would seem above the Law!

PMB should be neutral and just - he should authorize EFCC to investigate the allegations made by Jibrin, probe the alleged Reps or forget the cosmetic War against Corruption or Indiscipline!

nnokwa042:
and they invented the first plane in the world and first car or the first telophone black people insulting each others over who first bought tv or handy or car from oyibo, what will oyibo people that invented all this things will say cus the way ur boasting about everything is childish

I think you need to put on your Glasses and read my comment again! Did I talk about who first bought what?!

Do you know how much Oodua Investment is generating from the Cocoa House Building?! Or the number of Graduates the University had produced?!

You shouldn't have quoted me when you have no reasonable input to make! I need to make it clear that; I'm neither bullying not insulting you!

Minister of Education must re-introduce and make HISTORY a compulsory Subject at all levels!

I think it's gonna help the younger Folks to learn how the Revenues generated from the exportation and sales of Cocoa from the West, Groundnuts from North and the Palm Nuts/Oil from the East were used to develop their Region before the discovery of OYEL!

I remembered a time our Teacher asked us to write an Essay on; Is Crude Oil Discovery in Nigeria a Blessing or a Curse?!

If I am asked the same Question now; I would definitely write an excellent Essay on it..... in Summary, it's a CURSE!

There wouldn't have been a fuss if it was Real Madrid that signed POGBA for the exorbitant Fee!

- The Story would have been; a new Galactico is signed!

- Oh Yeah! He deserves and worth the amount!

- Some would have justified the Fee with the inclusion of POGBA in the World and Euro Best 11 Squads respectively!

- He was the best Serie A Player; He won 4 League Titles consecutively as a Core Member of the Team as well as League Cups!

Andre Gomez.... a complete Flop at the Euro was signed by Barcelona for €50m and no one is wailing about it!

The Deed is done already! United need a Player, a Midfielder, like Pogba in their Rank! I have a complete confidence in him to justify the Fee paid to get him! He's no more a Rookie, he's now a well experienced Player!

BTW: He's not gonna end up like £50m Oliver Torres!

dopeJemi:
Raumdeuter, who has no excuse not to win the league now?

Pep- 149m

Jose- 145m

And you expect Raumdeuter not come up with lame excuses?!

He's likely to say that; Pep is new to the League, why Mourinho is already a part and parcel of EPL!

Lana1:
From the look of things, both Manchester Derbies promises to be the highest rated matches of this season.

Who's had a better Summer between the two Manchester Clubs?!

FvckeDyoBiTch:
I love it when people don't understand sarcasm...

Especially when the Sarcasm is at its peak!

FvckeDyoBiTch:
Now that Moaninghoe has succeeded in depleting us of £90m he better qualify for UCL, win the Europa


And EVEN WIN THE FVCKING SERIE A.


I wonder who's going to get the axe before the season closes to balance the wage budget.

But I do not see this coming.....!!!
So Manchester United is now a Serie A Club?!
Wonderful!

GBR1:
"I heard comments from other managers but they'll never have this problem (criticism over spending) because to have this problem you have to be in one of the biggest clubs in the world"

Mourinho is so savage.

We gonna have enough of Dab Celebrations this coming Season! When Real Madrid was signing and breaking World Records, Barcelona wasn't wailing!

I really don't understand the fuss. Did United borrow money from them to buy Players?! Make dem chill jhoor!

Leyqute:
Abeg replace Rooney with Rashford.

But Rooney is the Team's Captain nah! Elampiro won't be happy if I change it!

Nice Development!

The present hardship is a big lesson, and also a great Avenue to diversify the economy, thus subduing over-reliance on FG Allocations by the States in Nigeria.

Without Oil Money..... SW built the first Skyscraper in Africa, the first Television Station, the best and well structured University and so much more!

Agriculture is the answer!

Odo to ba gba gbe Orisun..... O di dandan Ko gbe!

ISE AGBE NI SE ILE WA!!!

Chelseafan1:
Man city did not foolishly let Stones go almost on a free transfer ONLY to now wanna sign him back for a World record fee.

Not hating, just saying.
I mean, they couldn't even include a buy back cause
Gaddemmit!! !

I understand your worries..... and the image below best explains the solution!

Keky:
Lol @ united fans comparing Pogba's fee to Bale's. Bale won Madrid two UCLS, Pogba is winning a league where darmian was best RB

Indeed You are an Arsenal Fan! A Kid of 12yrs old would make a better comparison than the Gibberish you made above!

Bale won 2 UCL at Real Madrid and was re-signed again?! LOL!

How many Titles did he win at Tottenham before he was signed with the huge amount of Money?!

Did You know how many Titles Pogba won with Juventus?!

SMH!!!

MrTA:
Well no, its still around double his value. No way is he worth even close to 89m.

Guess you know the amount Juventus paid to get Higuain despite his Age?! Seems you forgot Pogba is among the World Best Eleven Presently?!

More so..... he's among the Best 3 Midfielders in the World presently! The Transfer market is so crazy at the moment, and I think the deal is fair!

Some of us are looking at it from the wrong angle; he was our Player that we let go for FREE or TOKEN! Does it matter?

If Madrid could price away Bale, without any major achievement at then, at that huge amount, then why complaining about Pogba who has won many Trophies with Juventus?!

Think straight Man, economy recess that's affecting Nigeria is not affecting United as a Football Club!

thegoodjoehunt3:

If people here feel they know it all, do you think we would debate or have different point of views? I must point that you are not making it healthy when you throw in statements like that.

People had different opinions. No one here worked in the camp to say money exchanged hands. Those accusations came from agents and managers of players Coach Siasia did not pick.

Some believed that as the explanation of why Coach Siasia dropped some good players or why he did not call some that will give some players in the squad competition.

We come here to share ideas and educate ourselves. If we know all, we would not read information from different sources posted here.

I am very sorry for the statement! I know it's wrong but I was pissed to include it by a certain Moniker!

I retract it back and deeply regret it! I will modify the post to remove it now!

I tender my apologies to everyone!

Official:

The Jersey No. 6 is reserved for HIM!

REUNITED!




POGBACK

Icon4s:
Firstly let me set the records straight. No one of us who criticised Siasia's players selection wrote him off. We still believed that the team would at least put up a descent performance.

I have been active on joseph's threads since early last yr and i can tell u that we have here some of the best foorball analysts in this country.

Nobody needed to convince or confuse any1 here. His selections and friendlies results where there to see. Which included repeated trashing by d Flying Eagles.

Every single person that criticed Siasia's team selection had every reason to do so. In our very eyes, our best talents were being neglected for mediocre players and u expect the pundicts here to clap for Siasia abt that?

I still feel we could have produced a better team than this sef.

And no use playing d "i told u game". The same forgiveness that u claim is justified for clamouring for inclusion of Sadiq wrote off Etebo Citing reasons that any player hu is above 18 that is still in the Nigerian league is a write off. TheGoodJoe would remember that argument. After Etebo's 4goals Y didn't we come here shouting "i told u, i told u".

U have mentioned that we all cannot have same opinion so if u have a contrary opinion , this is a free forum, feel free to say it and nt waiting for an outcome beforw commenting.

Thanks for responding maturely, though I am not amazed because I've been following the thread since last Year too! Tbaba, Joseph, Supernerd, AIG07, SirGoodJoe, Safarigirl are names you can't do without seeing on any of the National Team Threads!

I've said it earlier that; critiquing or criticizing is healthy but falsely alleging someone is what I am against! Many said it here that Siasia had collected Bribes from certain set of Players thus they must be on the Plane to RIO.

I am only asking those who made the allegation to mention the names of the Players if they are in the Team presently!

bataderemi:
I think the point is that there is a difference between criticism and accusing a person of bribery.

Critiquing is healthy but falsely alleging someone because you ain't happy with his method, tactics or selection is wrong! I don't have time to drag it further..... I've made my points known whether they like it or not!

It seems they don't want people like us to join the Thread..... it's either you fall in line or fall out with them!

Thanks to all.... especially Safarigirl! I wasn't disappointed with her response to my stance. Also, I'm gonna take the advice of BascoVanVeli with seriousness! I will be back again after the Olympics!

bigblangston:
Lmao!! So Samson Siasia logged on to nairaland to open this thread to read your comments about his team before the olympic games right? I'm amazed

Don't mind them!

SIRcumalot:
I wish there was a way we could keep blind in the first team,he was making this low forward passes yesterday that was just amazing.

I really want him to remain in the Squad too! I think I enjoy his partnership with Baily! They played well together! Both are good on the ball unlike Smalling!

Diademk07:
Greedy ugly mofo!

It's high time you get quarantined!

Pogba left United as a promising Lad, now he's back as a Superstar! In short..... from Grass to Grace!

Januzaj came into limelight under Moyes, he was dubbed as the new Ronaldo, rewarded with a legendary No. 11 last worn by Giggs! Fast forward to now - he lost the Jersey No. 11 to Martial and he's about to be shipped out on Loan or permanently! In short..... from frying Pan to Fire!

Meanwhile, United need to thank the new Chelsea Boss Conte for bringing out the best out of Pogba and the ex-Chelsea Manager Mourinho for bringing him back to the Theatre of Dream!

Diademk07:
With the agent fees, it's 100mil then. It was going to be either us or Juve that's expected to pay the agent at the end of the day.

I like you a lot, and I really don't want you to be quarantined!
Hope you gonna turn a new Leaf?! Format LVG off your Brain, Install Jose Mourinho there and you gonna be a happy Fan like the rest of us!

safarigirl:
the criticisms were fair. Did you expect people to be praising Siasia for his losses? Do you think Siasia would not have taken the likes of Ajayi to Rio if not for those criticisms?

I can guarantee you, those criticisms were instrumental to the team you see, gloating is unnecessary. Especially gloating to people who want nothing but the best for the team and only applied tough love to help the team move forward

I guess you ain't using the word on me just because of my stance?! If the word as used by you is directed at Siasia..... Fine! But if it's purposely used against me, pls desist from quoting me henceforth! I respect Ladies a lot, especially the Pundits!

All of us can't always be on the same Page, and so far I'm making my stance known without cursing nor insulting anyone, no one should curse or insult me too!

Thanks!

BascoVanVeli:
where were u when he lost 6-2? Siasia needed u then. It is all to convinient that u pull up when the going is good. U can't blame anybody when even u didn't say anything to defend him, on this thread at least. It is the way of life when u do well u get congratulated and when u do bad u get booed of stage, don't give me any of that Nigerians killed Keshi type talk cuz it doesn't add up.

It's empty Kettle that makes the loudest Noise! Sometimes you argue, sometimes you silent! Pls don't take it too personal, because this is part of the reasons I refused to defend him in the first instance. And as you can see, I'm engaging Sir Goodjoe in a friendly and healthy debate!

thegoodjoehunt3:

A lot of people miss the importance of Mikel. People judge Mikel for what he does when he is on the ball but miss his off the ball contributions. That is why people say he played poorly a lot or why has he lasted so long at Chelsea when he is ordinary.

Mikel's reading of the game causes an imbalance in the play of the oppositions. That is why, even at Chelsea, when he goes off, the opposing team, somehow gets stronger.

If not the Suwon embarrassment, Awo would have made the squad.

We prayed for a drubbing.

I explained why the criticism were justified. Asking if most of the players are still on the squad list is similar to saying there were no changes at Chelsea after Guus Hiddink replaced Mourinho.

Those little changes matter.

We shouldn't over-flog this matter, Siasia can decide to include Awoniyi in the final Olympics Squad and there is nothing you and I would do about it than to come on Nairaland and spit out the vexation here!

He knew it that Awoniyi isn't ready for the level, he brought Sadiq who eventually gets him ousted! That's called a fair competition and Siasia was just with the decision. He didn't clinch to the past performance of Awoniyi with the Team rather he goes with the best at the moment!

thegoodjoehunt3:

I still maintain with better support and Preparation, our indigenous coaches can match their foreign top coaches. Pinnick betrayed Amunike and I am disappointed in him. Amunike was raising a glorious generation but Pinnick abandoned those young men to rot.

Just like I believe Coach Siasia with better support and time to groom a team to play the way he likes he would succeed. I believe Amunike was on to something special. Pinnick put a dent in the preparation of the future Super Eagles.

I believe our future is still solid and these boys Amunike groomed will still play their part. I respect our coaches and I expect more from them.

What we need is growth. I hope Coach Siasia grows with this competition.

The reason we bashed Coach Manu Garba is because we know he is far better than what we saw in New Zealand.

The highlighted Points are the Reasons I was a Fan of you Sir! Critiquing a Coach for making tactical blunders is healthy but alleging him wrongly because of vexation is unfair!

thegoodjoehunt3:

Remove Sadiq Umar and put Awoniyi and you get a 4-4, 0-0 scoreline I both games. Which equals two points.

I still believe a better screening would have gotten us a better defence set up. When the Swedes came out, they penetrated.

This is not our best line up. If the Foreign clubs allowed Coach Siasia to have all he wanted, it would have been a different squad.

Do not forget, we conceded four against Japan. Let us hope the coaching crew keep working on organization. Let us not feel we are invincible.

The defence is poor and could be better. Many here drummed that the addition of Mikel will beef the team. I have no doubt that this team will be weaker without Mikel. Just as confun pointed out, the few additions like Ekong, Mikel and Sadiq have improved the squad massively.

Did you check the Questions I asked at all Sir? Does Awoniyi make it to RIO?! He was given a chance but he failed to grasp it. Mikel played poorly in the first Match..... but he showed his class as a senior and experienced Player in the second Match!

The fluidity of the Team was also outstanding in the second Match, and it's obvious they are gelling up gradually together!
