It is going to be a tough game. I am interested to see how much possession we can have against another good team that is not going to sit back like Spurs.

I am confident that we can get a good result at Stamford Bridge...Chelsea are not very dangerous going forward...

..............................................DDG........................................

.......Dalot................Varane.......Martinez...........Shaw......

..........................Casemiro...............Eriksen.......................

........Antony....................Bruno....................Sancho..........

......................................Rashford........................................

Lindelof, Malacia, Fred, McTominay, Iqbal, Elanga, Garnacho on the bench.

This is also my preferred line up...

At least we now know those who prefer certain players over the club...

Now, let's talk Chelsea vs Manchester United...

odizeey:
Another Messi Stan.

Make una dey come one one. I guess that struck a nerve.

BS!

odizeey:
So messi can surpass his goal tally

So, this is the reason behind your absurd take on this issue?

Jodera:
My problem is not even about him being benched or subbing in Elanga. My issue is telling him to warm up just so he'll play then tell him to go sit down while putting another player.

This is someone who loves to play no matter what and have already made that peace that he won't start every match. Now, tempting him with warmup that he'll play only not to play is a big dent in such a person's ego esp in this scenario. It would have been better if he wasn't told at all or if he was told to warm up and Tottenham put in one goal which now forces Ten Haag decision to put in a defender to protect the lead.

Normal players won't see anything big in that but ego players with achievements like Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic et al will always always throw a fit if such happens.

Sometimes, there are different ways to go about different people

Is he the first?

Have you not seen cases where a player us dressed to enter the field of play but after a goal or a red card the coach changes his decision and opts for another player?

We are up against Chelsea on Saturday, at 2 goals up, do you expect the coach to still introduce Ronaldo knowing too well that Martial is out injured?

If he had sub Ronaldo in and he got injured, won't we all query his decision seeing that we were already 2 goals up?

Jodera:
It might be overboard and what he did was wrong no doubt but that doesn't mean I didn't understand his reason nor will I act same way If I'm in his shoes.

A very top world class player like Ronaldo is who has ego is told to warm up then after warming up he's not being substituted In. Then why was he told to warm up? If it's Elanga or sort being told all these things, I understand but someone like Ronaldo? Come on!

I know there's this cliche that "all players should be treated equal" but we know it's not ideal. It's disrespectful to do that to Ronaldo or someone like Ronaldo.

I yeah, I saw you said there's still 2 subs remaining? So when are they expecting to use the 2 subs, 1min or so to full time?

Like a whole Ronaldo will play 1 min or so like say him dey look for debut? No make me laugh abeg


The only reason why I'm not even too into Ronaldo's side was because he disrespected Ten Haag and Man u during the preseason.

My guy, think of what Auba was doing at Arsenal and relate it to this case...

Lol I no sabi am oh!

Borntosmoke:
Messi with good attitude . Messi won even choke someone to death . You better they thank God he no kill the guy. He for dey enjoy for kirikiri prison

Does Messi plays for Man Utd? So, if Messi attacks the PSG coach today it is also okay for Ronaldo to do same...Na wa oh!

Manchester United fans are talking about Ronaldo's attitude which is not right but instead of you to focus on the subject you're bringing Messi into it as if Messi doing it makes it right...

I just think Ronaldo attitude might unsettle the team...EtH is relatively young and has not managed such huge egos so, if Ronaldo continues with his recent antics, it might as well see other players begin to act the same way...

We were winning and playing comfortably well, I see no point drawing all the attention to himself when he can still sit on the bench even when angry and at the end of the day congratulate the lads...At his age and with his experience, I'd prefer if Ronaldo goes into EtH's office and express his feelings rather than display all those antics when he is not playing...

I didn't watch the match but I am happy with the reviews I am reading especially about Bruno...#GGMU

Antony should always pass the ball to a player in a better position and not try to find Ronaldo every time...I noticed a good number of times yesterday where he sought to find Ronaldo instead of a pass to another teammate...

Let him talk about 4 years first...

BlueMann:

Wow!

A001:
Fighting over any Nigerian politician is not worth it all. Whether in APC, PDP, or LP, all of dem na thieves.

Just promote your candidate with civility and let others too support whoever they want.

No need to be fighting like agberos for politicians that don't care whether the average Nigerian lives or dies.

Is this too hard for supposed grown up adults?

liveLongNprospa:
I'm asking for tinuke

I don't know who tinuke is...Can't you guys act your respective ages?

liveLongNprospa:
What role nau?

Ask anyone that knows what's up, DSA is no respecter of roles...If the country rep of UNHCR travels for 5 days, he'll earn the same amount of money with the driver driving him/her...

BlueMann:
This Enzo Fernandez, shey we no go look e side? Cos I like what I'm seeing

Unfortunately there's gonna be a lot of competition for his signature, cos his stock is really high. Once again, we need to spend more time in South America, especially Argentina and Brazil, cos talent full there.

Which club?

Borntosmoke:
We should try Iqbal or pellistri?? Why is not using those players

Pellestri is a winger.

liveLongNprospa:
My own is the story of Tinubu with deloitte that I always find funny.

What role did he have that made him qualify for that amount of bonus .
Ahn ahn

.

donstan18:
Are we arguing that Tinubu has criminal records or he’s a CONVICTED drug baron?

The agreement to forfeit $460k was for what?

I think Tinubu did some accounting jobs for some drug barons without (he might know but feigns ignorance) knowing the source of the money and got paid for it...When the authorities saw how much he had in his account compared to his earnings, it raised suspicion...

I think the authorities accepted that Tinubu may not have been in the know on the source of the money and Tinubu on his part choose to let go of some money in order to move ahead...This is what it seems like else there's no way the authorities will let a black man off the hook for any drug related offense...

Donjazet2:
Ibukzy, oyindamola, gloriousgbola, user09 and other reasonable yorubas.
I call on you all to join the winning team.
The APC has shown us shege these last 8 years. We cannot reward them.

Here we have Peter Obi. A governor that performed well with little resources, corrupt-free, integrity-personified, humble and simple.

A man who didn't borrow a dime throughout his stay in power. A man who performed exceptionally well in education and raised the state from a ranking of 28 to number 1. A man who cut the number of out of school children in the state by 60% and made it the lowest in number of out of school children.

A man who left behind lots of money for the subsequent governments to build upon.

A man who didn't seek further personal aggrandizement. A man who didn't go to retire in senate for free money like others do.


I enjoin you all to join this movement that serves as a once in a lifetime opportunity to take our country back from poor leadership and send the ruling class a message that we can't continue to accept failure, we can't continue to accept money politics.

It's time for accountable politics.
It's time for the average masses to take back power. If Obi fails,(God forbid), I'm sure we will unite again to send him packing. But what we must not do is go back to Egypt.

The same gloriousgbola you were insulting in the previous page?

BlueRayDick:
Being autocratic won't even work in this age and time; except u want to be fighting a guirella war within the boarders of Ur country.

Any leader or president that chooses not to carry all component units along like governors, senators, local politicians etc will just have the country go to flames under him

We all know that in trying to carry them along, they'll make demands which is not in the best interest of the country...Obasanjo had the perfect opportunity to get this country working...

liveLongNprospa:
Is decamping possible?

I thought Obi will have no one..

ON a, more serious note, we are about to enter a totally new political world in Nigeria... Should be fun

I don't understand what you mean...

BlueRayDick:
I think at this point one needs to agree that Obi's presidency won't do much compared to others. Yeah there's the corrupt and sick Tinubu on the ballot and the corrupt Atiku that sold as many national assets for knockdown prices to his friends under the privitization scheme as VP.

But then Obi being surrounded by people like Doyin Okupe and Co will certainly find it difficult to fight the corruption institution we have in Naija. Obi may have the reputation for not having any corruption charges against him in the past nor have any major scandal that hovers around misappropriation of public funds, but having people of questionable character campaign for him ( and most likely end up with a place in his government) will certainly affect his government. The fact that he's not going to import people from another country to run the show but make use of EX-PDP members (who may pay lip service to his desire for new Nigeria, but deep down they want to have access to keep eating our yam) just weak person.

https://www.nairaland.com/7380035/doyin-okupe-prosecuted-over-arms

I have said it time without number that if Obi wins, the same old politicians that have heldback the country will decamp from the APC and PDP to the LP and will become major players in his government...I have this feeling that for Nigeria to head towards a new path, the president will have to be somewhat autocratic...

LibertyRep:
I pity the traditional members of the Labour Party.
They should have realized by now that they are mere borrowed and dispensable platform in this arrangement.

If their candidate wins the next election, they should already have an idea of how they will be emasculated.

If their candidate loses, the current visitors will leave and the party deserted.

The party should enjoy the ovation while it lasts.

Perhaps, introduction of independent candidacy would have solved this imbroglio.

Gbam!

Peter Obi AKA Him tu lie you do this one


Atheist don dey shout HOLY GHOOOST FIRE

Hehehe you be madt man sha...

liveLongNprospa:
That means this sensitization has been going on way before this convo.. Meaning you either have a source that's not updated or the person is feeding you the wrong info on how far Obidients have penetrated these places..

But like I said, I appreciate the input and I know more shockers are in store for the APCPDP siblings

That's Ugep and not where I am currently however, I made exceptions, if you know Cross River well apart from Calabar you'll know Akamkpa, Ugep, Ikom and Ogoja are not villages but big towns...The only reason why LP is not making waves in Ogoja which itself is one of the oldest province in Nigeria is because of Sen. Jarigbe of the PDP...His performance means no other party stands a chance in Ogoja LGA.

liveLongNprospa:
Thank you for this submission.

The good thing about the LP is the road map especially marked out by the groups.

I'm sure you've heard of the super volunteers who are aggressive in their rural penetration in selling the party to the locals.

This movement started when... 4 months ago and we've done more than any body expected and the truth is we are going harder because we are getting more volunteers.


Example this is a place in Cross rivers.. Maybe you missed it tho.. And you should expect more

Ugep is my village...It's not classed as a rural area but this is impressive though...

One thing I know for sure is that I learn from previous events...I am in Cross River State, not even Calabar but Ogoja so, I know what I am talking about when it comes to appeal away from mainstream media and the big cities...

Over here, it’s a fight between PDP and APC and it's the same for every other part of the State except for places where you have a good number of Igbos and Calabar...

The chances of LP doing well depends on the performance of their Senatorial candidate in the Southerner Senatorial district Rt. Hon Daniel Aauquo who is a two term House of Member under the PDP, with his popularity in the South I expect it to translate to votes for PO since the elections will be held on the same day...One thing is certain, the electorates (Some, not all especially those in the rural areas) are not educated enough to vote different parties for different positions in an election conducted on the same day...

In the rural areas, they only know PDP and APC and truth be told no matter the number of rallies held in bug cities, once there's little or no penetration into the rural areas, expect those folks over there to go on with the status quo where before leaving their houses they already know it's PDP or APC they're voting...

I look forward to the time when Nigerians (Particular reference to those in the rural areas) will vote for Party A for Presidential elections, Party B for Senatorial, Party D for Reps, Party C for Governorship and so on based on the competency of the aspirants flying the flags of each party...

Donj.azet2:
You really have to be shameless to post supporters from your own region.

I mean, can you see any of us here bragging about peter Obis rallies held in Onitsha, Owerri, nnewi, aba etc? We already know that these regions are foregone conclusion, it's a question of margins.

Our focus is on your own region.

Peter Obi will win more votes in the SW than the yellow teeth-stained drug baron will win in the SE, go am money if you doubt.

We brag about our rallies at your doorstep and far into the north.
We brag about peter obi rallies held in Bauchi, Jos, Kaduna, taraba, Ibadan and Lagos.

That's how you know a candidate with national appeal.

Not one with the most tribalistic set of human beings in your safe zone choosing a half dead human being to rule over a country of 200 million people.

liveLongNprospa, read the last paragraph and make what you want of it...
