LOL @ Stanley Okoro.
Some even likened him to Messi.

yeah it true. They made so much noise of him then. Lol

Jloveme:
Am sureu dont know this guy because if u do u will know hes not overrated! He has been consistently consistence

No we don't know him. It is only you that know him. That was how we think mikel Obi will come to super eagle and blow. Don't put unnecessary pressure on the guy I beg. Let him continue what he knows how to do for now.

kaorama:
They have come again. That's how they overate players and give Nigerians false hope. What has the player in question done to warrant this ambiguous comparison? He has great talent, no doubts, but to begin now to compare home with Yekini is a misplaced accolade.

Thank you Jare. They will put unnecessary pressure on the guy now. Rate him so high that his mate will begin to envy him and plot his downfall.

I wonder who the "you people" you are referring to is. If you do not know that most news in the media are deliberately leaked to the media by government agents to sway public opinions then we need not speak on this further, cos prior to the court proceeding, nobody had access to the findings of the investigations but the govt. And for the records, the CCB chairman only reacted to misrepresentation of proceedings in his court room. I pray for life so both of us can see how this EFCC case will turn out. Cos i can hazard a guess how it will end going by these guys precedence of charging one to court first while they build up their evidences

All the things you said never addressed any of my arguments.
Did fg ever mentioned number of houses in their counts against the CJN? If you based things on hearsay of an unknown source and you use it as official then you know what that means. Many of those hearsays come from the media who want to break news but will tell you the person (their) pleads anonymity.

Once again, does the fg mention number of houses in their charges?

Do the media not add to stories?

kross01:
It just painful the way these guys move shamelessly and think media trial is the best way to get victory over any perceived adversary. This man was said to have 55 houses and millions of foreign currency in his account, but during the star witness' account during the CCT trial, he was shown to have 5 houses, out of which one was gifted to him by the government. Today now EFCC has said he made multiple deposits of $10,000 totalling millions, meanwhile we saw the figures found in his numerous bank accounts. I for one would love to see how this ends and know who will end up apologising to who at the end. Only time will tell

I think you people are part of the problem. The fg never mentioned anything like houses in charges against the CJN. Fg only said non declaration and false Declaration + funny bank denomination.

The media twisted it and added their own and all of you started debating the one that is not part of. The whole thing.

The ccb chairman is not happy about this and promised to take action against the media twisting the reality. You all came here to shout again that the chairman is stupld

CiciReally:
@XhosaNostra Pls dear read carefully before judging or calling me bitter and tagging me dramatic, coming from a fellow woman, is it okey that he got me in this situation then backed out? To come back wen the storm is over, what sort of man or father is he? What will it cost him to stand by me till is time to confirm his doubt, I hav no issue if he doesn’t even pay the bills but that support mean the world, am new to this no friends or family around but him.

As humans that we are, every reasonable man will think like him since he only has 99% chance of impregnating you.

So as it is now, he is only 10% sure the baby is his and 90% sure the baby is not his.

You need to prove to him. Use every means to convince him that you are with him.

that's some big ass lie.... I schooled in Ilorin for 5 years.... I paid 100 all through.... I never paid lesser, or have I in any viewing center... Infact "oga sonneh charges 150 for 3 to 5 matches...

Bros that was before. The way people troupe to viewing center is not like before. So people are reducing the price.

One of the major risks is that of hoodlums. That is their home and you must be ready to clip their wings

Naijastar001:
Many small boys will insult you and your father. Idiot. Do you know my age? Fool. If you are too old, leave nairaland m.u.m.u.

If you claim to be as old enough and this how you go, then I am so sorry for your mother. Continue.

Naijastar001:
Your father lacks home training. You must indeed be crazy. Do you know me or do you want to know me

I still maintain what i have said before. When you get home tell your mother how you responded to someone who is old enough to probably father you.

Then tell your mother again that I said she didn't do enough to train you.

The same way you have insulted me here, that is how a small boy will do it to your mother.

Dats all

Moukandjo:
Tell me one of these legends you call GOATs that "single-handedly" won a trophy for their national teams! Zidane? Pele? Maradona?
Just mention one & we'll bust the myths & propaganda for you now-now, especially that Maradona's own!

I think I have to stop here since you are still finding it difficult to understand. This your last says is not showing that you understand this thing at all.


The Zidane and co you are talking about performed outstandingly and credibly well AT BOTH CLUB AND NATIONAL TEAM.
This is different from who performed only at club level and consistently Please note the word CONSISTENTLY - for about ten years, failed to lift the national team. He had played with different good players for the national team in the past, but he did not do anything special.

This is about reality on the ground not about what we like. Your love for the guy makes you not to see the other bad side where he needs to improve

Moukandjo:
Oga, like I told you, it's not about having big name players wey some don expire. It's about the right balance from attack to defence & also in terms of the right mix of experience & youth especially of their starting line ups! Germany now doesn't have much big name players but their team is way more balanced than most other teams!
You can't be telling us Argentina has Dybala, Higuain (shey in reality, Higuain na player?), Aguero, Icardi, Tevez, Di Maria etc to play with Messi in attack when the reality is Messi will still most likely start alongside Maxi Meza & Christian Pavon in attack! Even if Messi plays with a maximum two of these "big name" forwards in the starting 11, goal keeper, defence & midfield nko? Where is the balance?


Rui Patrício
Ricardo Pereira
Pepe
José Fonte
Raphael Guerreiro
Bernardo Silva
Adrien Silva
William Carvalho
Joao Mario
Goncalo Guedes
Cristiano Ronaldo (c)

This is Portugal's line up against Uruguay that sent them home in the last WC! See how balanced the team is from back to front irrespective of "big names"?

Now give us Argentina's starting line up against France that sent them home & tell us how balanced that team was!

My point still remain. I will perform if you put me in the midst of good footballers. If messi cannot lift another team except bacca, then he is not great.

The great players turn bad team to achiever.

If everything is centered on good team, then Messi is not great. Not until he bring result to a bad team. Until then he is just good but not great

Ozkar:
You clearly don't watch Ronaldo often. Lemme remind you a bit with just UCL this season. Let's not add the Juve defeat against Atalanta that knocked them out of their domestic cup. No need to add the last UCL final that Bale had to come from the bench to rescue Madrid.

In this year's UCL, Ronaldo played 6 games before the Atletico game in which he bagged a hattrick. Guess how many goals he had across those 6 previous games.

why are you limiting everything to just present? Please proof to me that it was not the effort of Ronaldo that one Madrid 3 champion leagues at a string.

You are talking of bale that came as a substitute in most of the matches. If Madrid did not get to the final, will you mention Garry? Then ask again, how did Madrid got to all those finals? What was the star player in many of the matches. Who did commentators scream the name more in Madrid team? Please if not Ronaldo, mention the player.

As for juve, it was already over for them if not because Ronaldo did the miracle.
As you know, there is nobody who had contributed to more to Madrid's success in the last 3 years than Ronaldo, tell us if there is one.

He also did similar thing in Manu. He is at juve now and ask any juve fan if there is any player that they believe in more than Ronaldo

Ozkar:
yeah, when Ronaldo goes missing in official games (which is quite often for the hype he gets) you guys go silent like nothing happened. It becomes normal for a great player to drop a disasterclass. This is a typical Ronaldo game when he does not get penalties and a regular supply of passes and crosses.

What happened to "a great player makes the difference when playing with a bad team?"

Or is this because Portugal is not a bad team? They won the Euro 2016 final without Ronaldo on the pitch and are comfortably at the top of their UEFA Nations League group (that includes Italy and Poland) without him in the squad at all.

Ronaldo does not go missing quite often unless we don't watch the same football. Madrid won 3 champion league in a row. Ronaldo has been the best performer in the 3 years for his team and you said misses often.

His effort in Portugal give them the credibility they have today. Even after substitution in the euro in the last game, the motivation he was dishing out from the side line confirmed him to be a winner

sunnyeinstein:
Bros turn that site to an archeology site, there is goldmine of artefacts there to unearth, ancient civilization things.
You can look for a good archeologist from a university to study this for you. It'll turn him to a prof while you can get money from local and overseas interest on the land, plus some of those things will def fetcg goid money after verification.
Make sure you have a c of o to that land too sir

As if he is the owner of the land

Ozkar:
I hope you know that Portugal played a goaless draw in an official qualifier match yesterday again Ukraine, and Ronaldo was the worst player on the pitch for Portugal.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D2VUb-kXcAEeGxo.jpg

It is possible. It had happened to all good players before. Everyday is not Christmas.

sirevee:
There's a big difference between having a good squad with names and a good team. The former and latter is what defines the two teams of Argentina and Portugal respectively. Portugal is not only coordinated and inspired on the pitch, their boards and FAs are also in the same boat. You and I have heard countless tales about the Dressing room uproar in the Argentine's team as well as their unstable and biased FAs. Tell me in all sincerity which of the teams you think should be more progressive in their plays.


Talking about other teams that have viable leadership, I'd give you countless of them. But it all ends in one streak,


THE ARGENTINE'S TEAM IS SHITTY.

Don't you think you are still supporting my argument. A great player makes the difference when playing with bad team. Everyone performs well in a good team including me

chiboy1116:
name ten WC Argentines currently

Messi had played with good quality players in the Argentines team. They have many big players he had played with bold past and present. Yet it is still excuses all the times.

So what makes you a good player? Please answer. Even me will perform well if you put me in a good team. That is what we are saying about messi. He played in a good club with good team and performed. You call him greatest. But Messi had only performed in one team. No Matter the team he plays for if it is not bacca he won't click. Though he had performed better against the super eagle of Nigeria. But then ask again, how good is super eagle?

Naijastar001:
Are you stupid, do you even watch ball. You are dumb. France brazil uruguay spain england. Argentina has messi aguero dybala and di maria but all of them play the same position and they dont have a good coach that can play all of them together. Portugal has a more balanced team than Argentina

Is that how your mother trained you? Do you think you are talking to your mate? Since you have proven yourself to lack home training, I choose to ignore you henceforth.

Moukandjo:
That's a fat lie! Portugal have a better midfield & a far better defence than Argentina which makes their squad way more stable than that of Argentina! Argentina just has forwards & how many forwards can play at a time when Messi will already take one space?
If I ask you to name two players (including the substitutes) that you know aside from Messi that played today against Venezuela, you go fit?

What do you mean by "I go fit"? So the players that played against Venezuela were the ones played in the previous world cups and other competitions.


Now mention the big players in the Portuguese team and their big clubs and how they are so much command respect. So that we can confirm your fact. Then I will name the big players in the Argentines team, their club, and how the fans so much believe in them in their various departments

sirevee:
Normally, I would have just strolled past your comment and laugh it off but it bolstered on me to correct your ignorance.

Messi has never been the cause of Argentina's inability to strive. It actually have been based on technicalities. The Argentines see Messi as if he is a team by himself and thus don't play with the same motivation they play while he's on the pitch. Watch their matches, Messi is still the same him when playing intentionally and in his club side, the flaw here is the inability of the finishers up front to link up with his surges and passes. And again, it really would be unethical to think he'd play with so much vigor in just a friendly match. Talking about this other intentional plays, he had always lost to a formidable team who were more physical and united than his. Talk about France and Chile (Let me be quick to add that Chile were also the ones that denied Ronaldo's Portugal entry into the Confederation cup final). So please spare the football god some respect and space.

Mr man calm down. Messi have been scoring goals repeatedly in bacca even when others are fumbling. But what you have said still means that messi can only play well when other players are good.


As for Portugal apart from Ronaldo mention other players they have that are commanding so much respect in their clubs like that of the Argentines.

Yet, Portugal had not done so bad in the past 7 years. Sometimes they even pulled surprises.

One of the most reliable strikers in the world is in the Argentines team and overall have more better players in Europe than the Portuguese.

If a player of that profile of Messi can not play well in the Argentines team of today, then mention the country in the world you think have so much players, I mean all round better than the Argentines

chiboy1116:
messis era doesn't even have players, Argentina's golden generation is over , they only had attackers during the peak of Messi . Check the players they had from 1998-2007 mad players everywhere , on paper no team was better than that Argentina team maybe Brazil and France.

They have players than many countries even as it stands. Many of their players play in big clubs and are having high profiles in their clubs.

finesounds01:
no, Argentina is a bad luck to messi. messi made a mistake of choosing Argentina over spain

How can Argentina become a bad luck to Messi considering the fact that it had always been a good team before Messi came. They still have good players even up till now. But Messi's era has been the lowest to the La Albiceleste

Excelboi:
To jail journalists for what? Contempt of court? Some judges think they can just be wielding their power anyhow. If this guy find a way to become CJN tomorrow, that means wahala dey o

They will be jailed if they continue to dish out wrong information to the public

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!
You don't know me, Oga.
To conclude, based on your ignorance of who I am, that she knows more than I do is laughable.

Who are you sir?. The lady already find a better way somewhere and it is paying her well. You are now advising her to do what she had already did and you think you are smarter than her

madridsta007:
Don’t worry about who I am.

She’s already taken the advise. Hence she went out of the country to complete her Masters.

Nigeria isn’t a serious country— I am certain she knows this. She will start her PhD and it will be outside Nigeria— perhaps a postdoc afterwards and that will be it.

When Nigerians get serious, serious Diasporan Nigerians will come back.

You are still repeating my words. She doesn't need your advice because she knows more than you do
