Leao is a very good winger
Very good player but his body language will annoy the fans when things are not going well.

They want all of them. Very soon they'll go for Haaland.
They badly need a second striker. Mariano is not inspiring confidence and Benzema is aging fast and it is clear to all that Vini is too temperamental to lead from the front. See as their form lately has followed Benzema to the bench.

unclejb2:
Osimhen would bench Benzima currently
Nobody in world football can bench Benzema. And Osimen does not have all the tools to do that. He still has to work on his movement and close control which is the bread and butter of Real's game. He will be the second striker and will probably nail the lethargic Mariano Diaz's coffin.

But what is it about Real and the second striker blues. They never ever seem to do well ever since the days of Raul and even when they played 4-4-2 with either Benz or Gonzalo pairing CR7 and more recently the misfiring Jovic. Abi juju dey dat Madrid dugout.
Sports › Re: Ancelotti Wants Osimhen At Real Madrid by Reference(m): 6:16am On Nov 10, 2022
So, so. His hustle is second to none in all of Europe's top leagues but Real doesn't play like Napoli and he will have to create opportunities for himself the way Benzema does which will be a steep learning curve.

Arsenal does not have the depth to compete on three thoughtless of four fronts so this ouster should buy them recovery time cos when the FA Cup hits in January players start dropping like flies and traditionally the midway point in the league comes about the New Year but this time is much deeper meaning more congestion in the uary months.

That's the spirit.

But, Thiago Silva ahead of Arsenal's Gabriel in defense?.

Well, wishing them success
Yes, Thiago is a lot better than the error prone Gabriel. If not for Saliba Arsenal will have lost a few more matches.

If he does not obey the court rulings, will they also expect those that they are trying to convict obey them too.
That is the problem Nigeria faces that only restructuring can address. His organisation has cases in court that he wants tried and executed. But how can he morally expect that to happen now.
These are the questions only the citizens can answer but Nigerians are too ignorant, weak and divided to craft a working society.

Dignified response. Having said that it is clear age is slowly creeping on the lad and he has dropped one or two paces behind the rest. He is not as sharp and incisive as he used to be.

But it is a squad so one or two may not even play a single match. Tite also is taking a risk on Richie. His move to Tottenham has not been a success so far and except he has a psyche switch to turn on for Brazil, the drab performance may weigh heavy.

Lol, they have started.
You better not stake your life savings on simulations.
Who go win go win.
Exactly. One badly timed tackle, one red card and it's over. There are far too many things that can happen in a match thoughtless of a whole tournament.
Sports › Re: EA Sports Have Predicted Argentina To Win The World Cup by Reference(m): 8:47pm On Nov 08, 2022
Possibly. European teams are not doing well presently perhaps due to over playing courtesy of the Nations League.

On the other hand I fear the over reliance on the Premiership by the Brazilian squad their perennial rivals.

Had it been we are Americans, we should be cursing Joe Biden for the job losses.
Every leader is responsible for the situation of their countries and Americans rightly blame Biden and the Democratic party is projected to suffer at today's midterm elections.

That is a country with citizens in charge and are ready to punish misgovernance without fear or sentiment.

You are a mumu man.. the last one Obi attended almost made him cried on TV... Debates does not guarantee good governance..
But not attending does guarantee good governance as we have seen the past 7 years abi. Anyway since you guys see Nigerian as progressing who am I to question your judgement.

Carry on.
Nigeria is just a feudal state with leaders selected on he basis if ethnicity and their ability to manipulate a lazy people who cannot rise above sentiment to lead a better life for themselves.

Let us continue to progress in error until everyone has immigrated then the wild animals left will reboot the system.

A political party is ruling badly and has presented another candidate that has said he will continue from where his predecessor stopped and it is okay that he does not come forward to explain under query what that means.... just sorry for you guys.

Jumia coming soon with their fake black November sales.

An item of 30k will be sold for 40k at a "40% discount" grin grin grin
They are brokers so the fault might not entirely be theirs and remember we live in a highly Inflated economy where prices are beginning to change every month coupled with the upwardly mobile exchange rate.

See Dem, unpatriotic elements, shouting Nigerian roads are worse because, the truth just downed Dem.
Are Nigerian roads not some of the worst in the world. And you actually hint that patriotism is not calling out your country's shortcomings.

So that the problem festers and innocent folks die in silence to protect the egos of the irresponsible people that are paid to create and sustain a livable society.

Just sorry for your type.

But why are England and Brazil the only countries with two referees. Are they better than other nations or is this politics as usual..... but I can see my man.... Daniele Orsato.....Italy produces fantastic referees.... grin

The Niger Delta had better count their teeth with their tongue to define their future.
The very resources they depend on, they have access to these days via huge allocations is the root cause of this environmental calamity, the wanton use of fossil fuels. This is payback by the earth, big time.

And the wise deployment of those very resources in this last decade, last bus-stop of climatic stability will mean the difference between survival and mass migration of the peoples concerned to other parts of Nigeria and beyond.

For these places you see today, for all intents and purposes will be underwater in the next twenty, thirty years. The science simply does not lie. I am not too sure at this point in time if it makes any economic sense to rebuild that road as it is as a lasting solution.

Of course, it is tribal election.....we still get a long way to go in this country....
When a people, the whole people agree and say this principle or that will determine how elections will be won and lost, how leaders will be selected and elected then the elections have proper meaning.

I just pity those intending to vote on principles because they want a better experience. The truth is that it cannot work if they are not in the majority. And we have seen so far that they are not.
Politics › Re: Yoruba Council Of Elders Restates Commitment To Tinubu’s Ambition by Reference(m): 4:30pm On Nov 06, 2022
This is a tribal election.
Nigerians are largely going to vote along ethnic lines.
The average PVC remains a useless instrument for real change in the hands of an ignorant citizenry.
Not voting and I am not going to miss anything.
Can't be a part of the problems facing Nigeria.

If arsenal are still top of the league by Christmas, then the league is half in the bag. Very few teams that top by Christmas eventually lose the league according to statistics.
City traditionally have an imperious second half of the seaaon under Pep whreas what can I say about Arsenal's traditional lack of stamina.

But we will see. That is what makes the Prem exciting. See what Villa is doing to United.

Julen was sacked for keeping Sevilla at 18 for weeks. They were losing matches.
Now they've re-appointed Jorge Sampoali thier former coach.
But he ran the big three very close last season and if not for the lack of goals later on they will have come second or third. Then they traded badly in the close season and the team was destabilized.

Unai too was not doing very well with Villareal lately. But it takes nothing from both experienced and accomplished managers. The Premiership is better of with them. At least one less rookie gaffer.

I guess you are not watching the match. How many chances were created for Auba and he fails to convert? The moment I saw that useless coach starting Jorginho and Loftus-cheek, I knew that he has missed it. Those guys can't withstand Arsenal pressure. They are lazy ass.
I partly agree but then Auba can do a Jesus, drop his 9 jersey and fall deep to pick up. It is not a sin. But I guess he doesn't have the gas for that.

Which defence...?

What have the midfielders and strikers done in the entire 66 minutes that has elapsed?
grin eh now, goals are either scored by great play or great blunder. When two teams are evenly matched a great blunder is the likely settler. And we have seen one by Chelsea all asleep with that set piece.

But I still feel they have a better defence than Arsenal's. Game is not over.
