Bombblacks: They where missing 8 to 9 players that would actually be in their starting Eleven. Gloating at his 2nd string losing a glorified friendly seems a bit desperate.
If you point to the community shield as a trophy Moyes won during his time here, they'll say it's rubbish...Na banter sha...
So when Poch loses not our concern, but when he wins it’s our concern.
And this is not about Amaka. I no send dat guy from Fadeyi to Jibowu.
It is about Poch. Guy is a bottler and would have been the wrong choice. Dazall.
I got off his bandwagon early enough, Nagelsmann was my preferred choice but I know how folks roll here, they'd be quick to excuse Ole of his many failures just because others like him are unfortunate...
afrodoc2: So when Poch fumbles it does not concern us but when he wins it concerns us, innit?
We strive for success, not failure...We are supposed to look ahead...It's only those in front of us or walking beside us we can look at as a source of inspiration...
Ole fans want us to look at Ancelotti at Everton, Arteta at Arsenal and Poch at PSG but we say no, we rather look at Tuchel at Chelsea and what he managed to achieve in such a short time...We look at Pep, we look at Diego Simeone...We look at winners because we too should be winners.
1) He still had the better players overall and lost. At best the Lille players were on the same level as the players he had but he couldn’t win. As per normal for him
2) If it does not concern you when he loses it will be very wrong for you to drop any posts here whenever he finally wins something with Neymar, Mbappe, Marquinhos, Ramos, Veratti and company.
How often do those guys play together or even play in a regular season? Team chemistry is important and that's what Lille had with their preferred 11 starting bar their goalie that joined Milan...
As I said, my priority is seeing Manchester United win a trophy, of course I'll be sad when I see other managers doing what Ole is struggling to do...If Poch was our coach and he fumbles, I'll be the first to call him out as his shortcomings means Manchester United too will struggle but as he isn't our coach, if he likes, let him fail, e no concern me...
We don't measure up to failure but success so, when Poch and other managers win, we will ask Ole for his own trophies...
Those who rather focus on the failures of other top teams are doing so because for them, any window of opportunity must be utilized to make Ole seem like not a very bad coach...
afrodoc2: Forget that thing. Poch na bottler. If a man repeatedly shows you the kind of person he is at some point you have to believe him.
As per wetin concern or no concern us please keep the same energy whenever he finally wins something while parading arguably the 2 best (non-GOAT) players in the world.
Did they play yesterday? No...
PSG winning or losing doesn't improve our chances of winning...My utmost concern is Manchester United...
So the PSG Lineup is not good enough?! Check Lille's Lineup and tell me they are superior in quality than PSG Lineup.
PSG were missing at least 9 players who are guaranteed to start when available but that's more or less Lille's best team...Anyway, whatever happens over there no really concern us...
See stupid Nigerians already saying he is guilty...Why not you guys calm down and allow for a proper investigation. Even the FBI has not pronounced him guilty yet (He has questions to answer for which if found guilty he will be jailed otherwise he will return unscathed)...
ChristineC: a Carrick type or Keane type DM. which do you think will be a better fit with the way the squad is right now?
Depends on whether or not Pogba stays. If he stays, I'd prefer a DM that has similar qualities like Keano but if he leaves and we sign a CM who is more disciplined (Someone like Neves or Camavinga), then a Carrick style DM will be just fine...
handelex: Lolz.. they clearly prefer a CDM type of player than an outright DM. One that can comfortably orchestrate play from deep who's also defensely competent unlike Pogba.
handelex: The list of targets put together by Ole Gunnar Solskjær and the recruitment department prioritised a winger, centre-back, central midfielder and right-back - in that order. [Rob Dawson, ESPN]

DM to follow...
Drop your choice here so that when Ole and Fletcher stop by, they'd know our wishes...
I like how we have go about our transfer dealings this time around. We talk to the player first and once he accepts to join, we approach the club with an offer that way, no more embarrassing moves here and there...
For the first time in a while, we are not linked to every player in the world...
Just got notification via my calendar notification that we are playing Preston by 2pm...I thought due to the Covid outbreak it was canceled, is it going ahead?
Oasis007: John Murtough and Darren Fletcher spoke to Raphaël Varane to sell him the move to ManchesterUnited. Sources say that Varane was particularly swayed by Fletcher.
As long as world powers keep investing so much in production of weapons, the world will never know peace. For them, it's business...If there's no war, who buys all the weapons they produce? They're behind the many conflicts around the world...
Jodera: Yea... Basturk was very good (even scoring 2 goals I think)
But in that team, I just developed a personal like for Hassan Sas with the way he pushed that attack for Turkey. He was my best player in that Turkish team, cos prior to that, I never really knew much Turkish players that much
Hassan Sas with the shinny head abi? He was also one of their top players...I rooted for them in that tourney but they fell short (I have a thing for underdogs)...
The team I hated was Korea, those guys cheated their way all the way...
Jodera: Lol... That basturk guy dat played midfield. Na Hassan Sas catch my fancy that tournament in Turkish team sha. Then that Ilhan Mahzis(I dunno weda I even spelt his name correctly sef) that scored that winning goal against Senegal. Mehn, that goal pain me die.
That team try well sha. Dey tried against Brazil both games
Basturk was excellent, he was one of my fav back then...Yildray Basturk...
Oasis007: "Following consultation between Marcus, the manager, club medical staff and specialists, Marcus will undergo surgery imminently to resolve his shoulder injury.
“He will now focus on his rehabilitation in order to return as soon as possible."
ThierryJay: You are totally missing the point. I do not dispute that Modric is an overall greater player than Gerard and that is largely due to his consistency in quality just like Xavi.
My point is Gerard has better individual outputs than Modric has when both are on song. In fact he is renowned for this. When you think of Istanbul, FA Cup 2007, Real Madrid 07, Olympiakos 04, you think of Gerard alone as the instigator, the magician, the driver in all these matches. Modric, like Xavi, on the other hand is more systemic. So when you talk of UCL final 16, Club world cup final and co, he is regarded more as a contributor in those victories rather than as the protagonist.
This attribute of Gerard is what I preferred over Modric. Gerard's drawback is that he isnt as consistent in delivering magic on a regular basis like Iniesta for club and country and that is why Modric ranks above him.
Debroslink: In crucial matches, I'll pick Modric over Gerrard anytime. I'll rather have balance and direction in my midfield, than have a player who chokes and fails in crucial matches such as the ones below...
Izzou, make we no act like say we no know how things dey play out, if Burna Boy is out of the country but reports a case of someone threatening his mum with his picture and details attached, you think the police won't act?
izzou: [color=royalblue]In Nigeria, when you have a case against anybody, you go to a police station and report. A statement is given, and then the police takes it up from there.
In Hushpuppy's case, he called Kyari and Kyari made the arrest. No documentation. No petition. Is this how arrests are made in Nigeria? Especially from a Deputy commissioner of police?
Or can you patrickmuf arrest someone by just calling Kyari over the phone?
Let's discuss about this before I keep trashing that nonsense that a DCP made[/color]
Kyari told you the case was not documented?
If you know a police officer and you're out of town, will you accept if he refuses to act after sending him the picture and contact details of someone threatening to kill your family? Must a report be done via physical presence for the police to act?
