You lacked social exposure when you were growing.

You parents caged you and consigned you to themselves and Your siblings thinking they were doing you good but they've finally destroyed your social life.

It's not your fault but your parents fault

You just have to live with it and then fathom a way to train up your next generation
6 months of counselling can silve this kjnd of issue. Just teach the person how to be friendly.
The problem we have is that in Nigeria basic counselling to solve simple behavioural problems is something we are not familiar with. We lack exposure to many things in this country.

Lmaooo..no be simps dem.be ni?

Of course, they think spending money on women is the BEST way to get her. I like the first story though, he collected his food jejely and went home to eat it. grin


Lol...Me, luminouz will go to supermarket or restaurant and see a babe jejely buying her own food and offer to pay for her? As per what? Na me wan chop am? I have NEVER done that. When women call you stingy, not a real man, wicked, selfish and harsh...they are just saying 'i am pissed because I can't manipulate your black ass'

And I love that shiiiiiit grin
The problem with simps is that they dont
take the time to understand women.
They should try and understand women before trying to date or sex them.
They dont even learn from their female friends.
They have a false beleif system about women that needs to change.
Some simps dont even know that at a level women enjoy sex more than men
and they might pay for it in some situations

I used to blame bad boys but at least alpha males understand women
even if they end up treating them badly.
Text messages at night can seduce a girl faster than money
but a lot of guys dont beleive it.
I have used sexting to seduce a girl before and it worked.

MY THOUGHTS ON DIVINE NWACHUWU

The best way to integrate him is to arrange 2 or 3 friendliies and simply play him for 90 minutes
in midfield.
He should also be taken to the nations cup.
Unfortunately what will happen is that he will play for 10 minutes against siera leone and
then run away to Latvia and then nobody will call him up again
and the next talent in our local league will be called up hyped and head again to lithuania.
We need to integrate him into our midfield and see if he does well.
If he does well then iwobi has a complement or replacementt
if he doesnt then we can move on.
If we dont integrate these home based players then they are just filling up space
we are wasting our time and one hungry football agent wants to cash out
by selling our players to some obscure league.
Someone needs to convince him not to rush to all these obscure leagues in Europe
A good african league such as moroco or south africa will be good for him
or if europe Belgium, turkkey or greece.
He must be mentored and monitored before he goes and sits down in the Latvian league and
nobody hears of him again.
INTEGRATION IS THE KEY FOR LOCAL BASED PLAYERS
CALLIING THEM UP WITHOUT INTEGRATING THEM IS POINTLESS

Did you watch Salzburg play to be saying such false narratives

This is purely lies and an agenda on his top 💯 percent form Samson Tijani would not break into RB Salzburg first eleven not 2 seasons ago not this current concluded season,

You think everyone supports Man U and Chelsea abi

I’m a Salzburg and famalicao fan and tijani is not good enough to make our team yet

Injury or not
He played in the champions league for fb salzburg against bayern munich. He coukd have played 20 games for salzburg this season even if not as a starter. Maybe 11 games as a starter and the rest as a sub

Also most id not all salzburg productsvare succesful. They are specialists in handling houng talents.

Of all our midfielders under 23 he seems the only one with top flight football experience.
He has played in europe the austrian league and was on the verge of breaking into re bull salzburg first team when he was injured.
If he stays injury free he is the Victor isimhen of our midfield. He has been rated by European teams since he was 16.

Not exactly a response to your question but they don't need any. As we have chosen to be tactically static they only need to watch our games against Guinea Bissau to know how they need to line up. 4 in defence, 5 in midfield with 2 holding players and a fast forward.

Our super stars will be sweating at 0-0 after 70 mins. At that point the game can go either way as we have witnessed several times recently, with no opposition big name in sight. Normal thing.
This issue has been going on since 2019.
What exactly is wrong with our coaches?
Is it that they are blind?
Maybe the coach of sierra leone should be our coach.
We are too easy to figure out.
People will complain.
but a midfiield of nonsense players such as kingsley sokari, destiny ashadi and ocho ochowechi
will dominate that midfield we have cause they are natural midfielders
Tactically our coaches are extremely poor and can easily be brushed aside.
I dont see any work from the coaches on the team
We might as well play without a coach.
Mi ri ise coach ni inu team ye rara
Thats why i said im not watching our match.
They just get 11 players and put them on the pitch
No coaching, no plan just rely on the fact that we have good attackers.

Most guys just come here to lament whenever the Super Eagles list comes out without having the required knowledge about what is going on in our football.
Musa is to Nigeria what Maguire is to England.
How would you list Uzoho when he is suspended?

Disrespecting Omeruo who actually was one of our best players in our last match is laughable. Such comment shows those who do not have access to our matches.

Defence:

Akpo/Osayi Omeruo/Ajayi Ekong/Ajayi Bassey/Zaidu: These are our best defenders.
The inclusion of Duru is for exposure and to show that you will be rewarded if you play well in the league. Such match allowance will help our home-based players. If you watch Ebuehi you will know he is not the same Ebuehi although he is starting at his club. Aina just came back from injuries. 10/10.

Midfield:
Ndidi/Onyeka Iwobi/Aribo, Iheanacho ......... The midfield is shockingly limited and any injury to any of them can seriously affect us. I thought we will learn from our game against Ghana but it seems we are not ready to learn. Onyedika, Bonke and Nwakali deserve a call up. 5/10

Attack:

Oshimen/Awo Chuks/Musa Lookman/Simon. The attack is okay over just two matches (Boniface could help on the wings. Moffi deserves to be called up. Orban needs to be allowed to develop. He has not played a full season in Belgium.
It is the heigjt of stupidity and stubbornesd to play iheanacho in midfield.
It has not worjed and will mever eork.
The refusal to improve the midfield is horrible

Football as a career is all about talent but I have seen boys in academy that have no business going there.A very close friend took his son to academy paid huge money but it was obvious the boy can’t cut it.

The rich kids are taking over cuz their have the money to enroll them while it takes grace for real guys to make it.
This bribery stuff wont stand the test of time. Foreign clubs wont buy poor players and football academies wont make money.
If u run an academy that way it will collapse in less than 5 years.
U make a lot of money for a good transfer. Just 50000 dollars and u are made.

Its becuase of creative players like pele, maradona, ronaldo, messi etc\
that football became popular not boring 1 nill wins where you win a 38 match league by
scoring only 45 goals.

Secondly, Guardiola's method are truly innovative.
I think he invented the concept of the midfield playing full back.

In all, it just shows how bad things will get with Gasau
Nff will have no choice but to use remo stars products or else they want to embrace failure.
It is one of the few academies in the country where the products succeed in the big leagues of Europe and it has a big plan for Nigerian football.

He's only 19 and shows promise.

The only true major reasons I look forward to the U20 WC is because of the midfield of the Flying Eagles and her CB partnership (Benjamin Frederick & Abel Ogwuche).

Hopefully Bosso picks the right balance from the Midfield options of Victor Eletu, Daniel Daga, Tochukwu Nnadi and Samson Lawal. The other two picked in Midfield should play their part majorly from the bench, I believe.

Curbing your fatal attraction to that love rat

WHY do most women fall head-long for love rats but turn up their noses at Mr. Nice Guy, who like the proverbial bitter pill, might do them a world of good?

‘Love rats can pull off the cheesiest chat-up line as if they really mean it”, says Sarah, a relationship expert. “In the early stages, when they’re trying to win you over they have a knack of making you feel incredibly special and absolutely fascinating.

“Unlike most men, they are not shy of using three little words you long to hear, usually within a short time of knowing you. So, it’s not surprising that they have great success with woman. But with this success comes danger. One woman is never enough

"There are many women out there having their hearts broken by love rats, yet they give the brush-off to the kind of men they say they are looking for. ‘He’s very nice, they say. ‘In every other way he would be perfect, but there’s no chemistry. I wish I could fancy him, but I don’t”."

they are similar players just that osimhen is a better finisher with good positioning in the opponents box than awo. Starting both upfront will stress our midfield with creativity hard to come by
When we play with two strikers we can have only one winger and 3 central midfielders. Awoniyi and osimhen are mobile and so can play together.
With this formation our midfield play is not sacrificed.

These are the only teams that bring glory to the motherland
Super eagles na waste

And now they can’t even win a tourney that used to be our birth right. And some people got the balls to say we have no right to be angry ??


Omo god go punish anybody when they pick these academy players over open trials
On the contrary our football is actually on the rise.
Our football academies are producing stars everyday
and we are in a better position than 2013, 2015 osimhen set and all that.
Beyond Limits, mavlon fc etc are producing our next and present gen.
We lost those competitions because of bad coaching, luck, favoritism and bribery by our coaches etc.
Also, the u17 were their true age and so no shaking.
Development is not only about winning competitions but laying a ground work for it
and beleive you me the ground work laid by various stakeholders is very good.

For example, france missed out of the USA 94 world cup and it meant nothing really
Italy has not gone to 2 world cups and the effect is not that bad
because those countries have a machinery for developing football.
Also, Nigeria has a machinery and it is exciting if you see beyond the surface.
There is a Thomspon Shaka in Rangers fc another boy (babatunde) in real valladolid
and one recently went to brazil.
Our coaches are just a little bias and incompetent and they are sometime unlucky.
Also, the bad coaches we have will die out when they keep on churning out bad results
and people see the plethora of players we have in Europe.
We are actually better than 2015.
The only thing lagging behind is our league and i hope it picks up.

Everton have a very tall order.

The league table never lies.

Nonetheless, Everton have to absolutely beat Brighton or face relegation straight in the face.

Whuch two teams will go down from Nottingham, Everton, Leeds and Leicester, all on 30 points and end of today three games until judgement day.

Nottingham forest slight advantage if they can beat Southampton next few hours.

Leicester city have a huge mountain to climb 🪜 I can't see them beating Liverpool and Newcastle United. A slight chance against WestHam but it's not looking good IMO.

A warning getting relegated is bad enough getting back from the Championship to the EPL is not easy. Look at Watford and WBA.
They might beat Leicester and Man United because they are somewhat a big team.
A few years ago they were in the top 6 and could give these kind of teams problems.
They only need to rediscover their winning mentality.
It is not that hard.
Leicester is not a totally small team.
Two years ago they beat liverpool and came fifth with the same set of players.
They can do it

Africans invented Science, Engineering, Education e.t.c before the eu:ropeans stole it and decided to claim it.

some of the inventions were created by enslaved black Americans but attributed to whyte people..

If eu:ropeans are so good in science why couldn't they invent cars and all the things we see today 1000 years ago huh

the progress of eu:ropeans started after they invaded black people lands, education , science e.t.c..

our forefathers and foremothers left us Languages, culture, traditions and science e.t.c.. they were never superstitious. you have just exhibited extreme hatred for black people.

stop saying rubbish...
Its nice to talk like that but the present day African exhibits traits of backwardness and ignorance.
In fact, i know a lawyer who told me that science is the black man's witchcraft.
The real life experience and mental reality of Nigerians sound backward.
I mean common things of life are incomprehensible to us.
In fact, we think introverts are not normal
The average Nigerian does not know the difference between an introvert or an extrovert
A lot of nollywood films are full of people visiting a babalawo and end with a pastor shouting deliverance.
We lack intellectual sophistication.
The stuff we got from Egypt or Timbuktu is lost.
We cant connect with it
AS PER OUR CULTURAL HERITAGE
You see, it is the white man that teaches us our language
Yes, it is the white man that makes us to understand our culture
because the white man tells us our history and culture
We are just ideological non-identities

codemaniacs:
Symbolism, lack of self-love, lack of tribalism in the athlete e.t.c

It's what a detribalised African will do and what someone who isn't pro-African ( pro black ) will do.

Everyone is free to date anyone they want..

I believe black people should at worse date or marry another black person even if that person is not the same tribe or country as them.

Or at worst worse mixed-raced person like Naomi Osaka.. her boyfriend is a black guy.
You see, we Africans are not civilized. We have lost civilization in its essence.
For example, most Nigerians believe that inventing things is for Europeans and not Africans.
A girl once told me this "We don't invent things, we live that for the Europeans and Americans"
when i told her that i wrote a book about a black inventor.
Also, Africans don't even think in terms of psychology, philosophy etc.
Our forefathers were animists who worships idols and not philosophers and scientists.
Culturally, the forefathers of White people are people like Rene Descartes, Isaac Newton,
Plato etc while our forefathers are witches and wizards that left us with ignorance, illeteracy and wickedness.
We Africans dont even understand what education is and only read to pass exams.
Also, we do not understand how to discover the talent of our children or apply psychology to child rearing or education.
Our minds are still primitive.
Even Nigerians with money still have a backward mindset.

To buttress my points and the multi-dimensionality of African backwardness with Nigeria as a case point

1. A lot of Nigerian ladies still bleach their skins which is inferiority complex, confusion and madness
2. In church the prayer goes like this, "God all the witches, wizards and idols in my fathers house, deliver me from them"
Which buttresses the point that our forefathers were superstitious folks who left us with emptiness and illeteracy
3. We cannot conceptualize the world in the modicum of modern intellectual thought. We are very mechanical, confused
and copy everything the white man does.

FURTHER THOUGHTS

Africans seem not to have a scientific, rational and philosophical world view
In fact, a researcher said
'"The African thought system has been adjudged irrational because according to Bruhl,
it is insensitive to the rules of formal logic as formulated by Aristotle"
If you ask the average African congent reasons about anything he will not be able to give
a rational answer.
For example, if you ask a Nigerian why in his or her tribe some families (such as Osu in Igbo)
are treated badly, he or she cannot give a rational explanation from history.
We dont have a rational mindset.
AFRICANS GREW UP WITH CULTURE AND RELIGION
EUROPEANS OPERATE WITH SCIENCE AND PHILOSOPHY
SCIENCE AND PHILOSOPHY PROMOTE
a rationality
b questioning assumptions
c innovations
while religion and culture promote doing thins without thinking
and lack of innovation cause you do anything without changing them

Ah as per the South American leagues, up till the 2000's they were at par or maybe even stronger than Europe.
In Pele's generation it was perhaps stronger. All the members of the 1970 world cup team (Regarded as one of the greatest and Artistic teams ever) were from the South American League.
Even now the South American leagues are at the level of Holland, Belgium or Portugal.
The only thing is their best players now leave early for Europe so it weakened them a little but they
are still relatively good.
Just check out the quality of players that league is still producing. I mean Thiago Silva, Vinicios Jnr, Neymar, louis suarez etc
