Career › Re: Is The Legal Profession As Lucrative As It Used To Be? by Philosopher1979: 5:47am On Jul 19, 2020
gunners160:
Truth be told, a lot of those gibberish courses we studied in school back then are no longer needed again and not just law profession.
I think it is high time Nigeria change her curriculum and focus more on science related courses

Sociology, psychology, business admin, criminology, political science etc no get use
Psychology is badly needed with the way people are commiting suicide, rapping children and engaging in all manner of abnormal behaviour. Criminology is needed with the rate of crime in society. There is just something fundamentally wrong with our approach to education.

Even with science education we need technical and practical training and not just theory. A lot of people who studied computer science in school cannot do anything with a computer.

No course is useless. It depends on how you apply the knowledge. Our approach to education needs to be restructured

TheGoodJoe:
High point of the game was towards the end where Laporte and Rodri bad chances on goal from long ranges in free kick manners. I hope it was a tactical idea to break the deep parked bus of Arsenal and I hope Guardiola works on it and makes it an art.

In parked bus situations, curling long shots from the edge of the box like free kicks is ths way to go. It fits into the time-space theory too. With the box fully crowded, crossing into those areas is futile.

Pass the ball into the box and return it out to the edge of the box for curling shots.

I hope we continue seeing this tactical switch in our next game we face a team parking the bus deeply.
You are a true disciple of guardiola. Most people dont understand him. They think it is about winning a match. That is how he sees things. Its a whole new philosophy of football

A few weeks ago, you made it seem the Championship was too good for Etebo, hence, he couldn't cope, but left for a supposed easier league in La Liga, today the main truth is coming out, because you obviously have forgotten your words from weeks back grin

This guy you are a comic relief aswear grin
This is the same English division two he rates so highly. This his English football is good but overrated. He even said the Spanish second division is rubbish in comparison. The guy is bias indeed

Oh goodness me... Ozornwafor's Almeria is back behind again. They now trail 2-1 away at Ponferradina. The implication of this is that if Almeria loses and Huesca wins, coupled with Zaragoza's loss... Then Nwakali, Omoruyi and Huesca will land La Liga promotion today!

But it is not over till it's over. It may yet go down to the final matchday. Time will tell.
Huesca have scored again. Its now 2 nill

Undoubtedly one of the brightest of the lot for the U-17 Class of 2019. Another with high football IQ like him in that team is Akinkunmi Amoo who bagged a move to Hammarby of Sweden.
In my opinion, Samson Tijani is like Jorginho, Pirlo, Oliseh etc. He is a deep lying play maker who creates from central midfield. He adds creativity to his normal defensive midfield duties. He is NOT ndidi or a pure defensive midfielder. He seems to have elite level world class talent as many clubs were rushing him.
Salzburg is the perfect condition for him as their aim and objectives is to develop young players. All these big teams dont care about young players. Salzburg on the other hand DO NOT CARE about established stars

Ndidi is growing on the ball, game by game
You mean creative passes into the final third of the pitch and ball progression and atracking vision. If he does all that he will get into a big team immediately.

Once a player is changing agents in the midst of negotiations. I can assure you that there is more to this story.

Watch out for counter claims and all kinds of allegations.

And then when Lille are recommending a preferred agent, there are way too many questions that will remain unanswered.
Someone is trying to take advantage of him. This happens ALL THE TIME to home grown African players. They usually get into situations where an agent is trying to take advantage of them. Samson Tijani was an example until he landed in Salzburg. Stuff like this affects African players a lot. Well, if someone points this out, it will be as if one is making excuses for them

Top Italian Talent scout, Walter Sabatini speaks on Osimhen

Translated from Italian:

Courtesy: TuttoNapoli.net


To guarantee for Victor Osimhen there is also Walter Sabatini, the talent scout par excellence who over the years has found dozens of talents for Lazio, Palermo, Rome and now Bologna. From Nesta and Di Vaio to Ilicic and Pastore, Lamela, Benatia, Pjanic, Marquinhos, Manolas and Alisson and many others.

Speaking at Kiss Kiss Napoli, the current coordinator of the technical area of ​​Bologna, also spoke of the '98 class of Lille which is now very close to Naples:

"Go and get Osimhen, it's worth it! Stronger than Cavani? Well, Cavani had a particular character, but Osimhen is graceful, he has the running depth, great technique. It would be a great buy and a great regret of mine, last year I was among his tracks but I didn't have the strength to acquire it, for Bologna. It was an incongruous operation for Bologna, too demanding, but it was a player to take. If Napoli has closed I wish you the best of luck, it is a great purchase."
Victor Osimhen has allways been highly rated by talent sporters in Europe. Lois campos trailed osimhen for 4 years

https://www.goal.com/en-ng/amp/news/osimhen-is-like-a-cat-luis-campos-reveals-how-lille-captured/1tzjdzuly85431u9m6o69taqz2

Maybe he has divine favor i dont know but Campos in particular has marketed him to everybody. I pray he does will in Napoli.

I remember his match rating when nigeria played brazil. It went "Victor osimhen is something special". He troubled the brazilian central defenders in that match.
I am not rating him i am just saying football scouts in Europe rate him highly

Porto the club young Nigerian talents go to die. Better off going to Latvia
They can loan him to average portuguese teams like boavista etc or belgium or holland. You are right porto can bench nigerian players for life
But men Latvia is too obscure. Austrian league will be good to
Sports › Re: Nigerian premier league is the worst league in the world. by Philosopher1979: 6:51am On Jul 15, 2020
Nigerian clubsides should recruit players from our football academies. Most of our players making waves in Europe are from football academies.
Also there is an alternate league about to start for privately owned clubs and it will be interesting.
There is the University league started a few years ago.
I honestly appreciate efforts made to develop our local football

NIGERIAN YAYA TOURE ON THE BRINK OF FC PORTO

Football academies are the future of Nigerian football. Triple 44 academy Ibadan product is now on the radar of Fc porto. He could join their u19 soon.
This is another great prospect to watch out for. His name is Emmanuel Adeyemo

Football academies are a silent revolution in Nigerian football.

The problem with using foreign born players is like a man who begs his wealthy brother for money instead of telling him to get him a job.

With what I'm reading about Osimhen, it seems we actually underrate him on this thread

Like wtf!?
Yes, the europeans rate him higher than we think. I am surprised myself. I actually see him as just a good young player that will improve with time. Maybe they are wrong or right i dont know. Besides Lequipe is a credible news source so he will probably end up in Napoli

ON HENRY ONYEKURU

1 he needs to take up the monaco challenge and prove himself. He should stop running away to turkey
2. He us ready for a top 5 league. He has proved himself in belgium and turkey and so he should take his game to the next level.
3 A lot of teams still rate him and now is the chance to go above mediocrity and achieve true stardom
4 this is a big chance with monaco. The ball is in his court. His destiny is in his hands. Next season at monaco will be decisive for him
5 Monaco has a new coach and so there is nothing to fear again
