Can we be looking at Yildiz, he's a perfect alternative to MR
We need set piece specialist too

I mean we have Rice but I get what u mean.

Odegaard has everything to be that set piece/ dead ball specialist, especially the ones from close range but for some reason he hasn't. Eze is another one with the potential but hasn't done it.

I like this one but e go affect us because if we are being honest, we were culprits in delayed starts, especially, after going up and late in games we were leading. It will be an adjustment for sure. Hopefully, they are practicing quicker releases of the ball and build up from the back otherwise, we fit suffer if opponents decide to form a press. We saw teams utilize that approach.

BlueRayDick:
New rule for Goalkeepers

I know they want to curb time wasting, but this particular one is going to be challenging. It will be left to the discretion of the referee for the most part.

I mean how do we interpret what is serious and what is not, especially, if there is no blood, contact and the incident results in a substitution. It would be interesting to see how this is implemented.

I have said it before, Infantino reeks of corruption everytime I look at him. He is moving mad with some of these ideas and they may ultimately lead to the breakup of FIFA.

Blogs are saying we use it as distraction to move for alvarez instead

I don't think Alvarez is realistic either. I believe he is focused on joining Barcelona versus any other club and Barca will get him, it is only a matter of time.

Now we can rest
Berta behave yourself abeg

I struggled to see the possibility and knew it was a front for an improved contract for him. We need to move faster in the transfer market, we have a few holes to fill.

Is vinicius coming or not

I’d advise you to comot mind. It is such a complicated transfer and not much is in our hands. If it happens great, if it doesn’t it is what it is.

Spy360:
Are you saying that Rogers is worth 120m or what?

Garnacho on loan means that that 40m will not enter the books until next summer. Thast a set back on their book balance.

If Rogers is not worth 120m, then losing Garnacho is also a set back. Don't assume that letting a player go is a benefit, it's always an opportunity cost to the club. That's why a fee is paid.

Rogers real value is around that 70m.

You absolutely nailed it.

I was about reminding everyone that since the Garnacho move is a loan with a conditional obligation (conditions both clubs are keeping secret), it doesn’t go into Chelsea’s books until next season.

Chelsea have for a while been cooking their books and it is only a matter of time before it blows up exponentially.

Great insight and perspective Nwanne.

Can the Warriors just wake up and find a way to send Draymond to his lover's arms in Philly? I'm tired of that Brother and whatever the Warriors are on in the past 4yrs.

Honestly, I don’t envy you or any Warriors fan. Over the last 3 seasons or thereabout, I can’t figure out what you guys are doing, especially going into another season. Are you tanking? Are you rebuilding? Are you retooling? Ownership needs to get serious. It is sad to watch Steph’s final years look mediocre. After his retirement, I don’t know how the franchise thrives.

My girl Sha'Carri Richardson did her thing with ease today at the US Championships.

We meuve!

To God ehn, if we send Camarda go anoda loan, I fit swear for pesin! A beautiful brace after coming on, especially that well taken header for the 2nd. He has to be part of the first team.

Amorim, please be guided because for here our fight fit start.

One of the biggest failures of our education system is that we have convinced society that intelligence is more important than character.

I have never seen a child sent to prison because he scored F9 in Mathematics or dragged to court for failing English Language.

But I have seen children grow into adults who ended up in prison because of bad behaviour.
Because they lacked discipline.
Because they could not control anger.
Because they had no empathy.
Because greed consumed them.
Because nobody truly developed their character.

Yet, every day, we terrorize children over grades as if exam scores are the final measurement of human success.

A child comes home with low marks and the entire house becomes tense.
Parents panic.
Teachers threaten.
Society mocks.

But when that same child lies, bullies others, cheats, lacks compassion, disrespects people, or shows signs of dangerous behaviour, many people ignore it because “at least he is doing well academically.”

That is the tragedy.
Education was never supposed to be only about IQ.

True education has always stood on three pillars:
Character.
Discipline.
Learning.

And somehow, we abandoned the first two and became obsessed with only the last one.

We are producing brilliant minds with broken values.
People who can solve equations but cannot manage emotions.
People who can build apps but cannot build integrity.
People with degrees but without conscience.
And then we act surprised when corruption destroys a nation.

Corruption is not an academic failure.
It is a character failure.

A country does not collapse because people cannot calculate.

A country collapses when people entrusted with power have no discipline, no empathy, no moral foundation, and no fear of destroying the future of innocent people.

Some of the most dangerous people in society are highly educated.

That should force us to reflect deeply.

Maybe our schools should spend more time teaching emotional intelligence.
Teaching empathy.
Teaching self-control.
Teaching honesty.
Teaching dignity of labor.
Teaching integrity even when nobody is watching.

Because the child who learns discipline may survive failure.
But the child who learns only how to pass exams may someday become successful without values and that is dangerous for any society.

The painful truth is this:
A nation can recover from poor grades.

But recovering from a generation raised without character may take decades.

We must stop raising children only to pass exams.

We must start raising human beings.

He who has ear should act accordingly.©️

Thoroughly enjoyed reading this masterpiece.

I swear I cracked up.. As in, we all know where and how this will end na!

But when Durant does it

On a serious note; it's up to the other teams to step the f up and not let it happen.

We know what we are doing.. All of us!

Agenda must Agend!

izzou:
Okay oh.

I really hope that if you decide to sell cars in Nigeria, you don't approach the business with trust and this level of straightforwardness

Person go use "Ransom from Kidnapped victims" buy car for your hand, and na you Police go carry.

It's alright. I understand you

I guess your heightened scrutiny na because of things happening for Naija and na una get the experience. But, he has the money, the car and now a credible police report, he needs to give up the money.

izzou:
He is not forcing them to buy the car because he wants to sell it. He is forcing them to buy, because he wants the transaction completed; He wants to have proof of exchange between him and the guys

You really don't know how bad these cases.

3 months from now, NPF would be arresting you for a transaction you know nothing about.

Magic word is “Force”. You can’t force people to transact with you otherwise it is completed in duress.

There was a breach of trust in the process of completing the transaction, which renders it null if either pulls out.

The sale isn’t final and can’t be considered final in this instance because goods did not get exchanged. The guys are declining to proceed and that is their right, irrespective of suspicion.

There has been no exchange of good, he still has his car and money from the boys. He needs to refund the guys their money. Seller is trying to eat his cake and have it and being arrogant about it.

The guys did not disappear after the transfer did not show up, they went to eat and made the seller aware of where they are. This case is simple.

eddie7:
Two guys waka enter car shop to buy a car, after selection and negotiations, the guy wey wan really buy the car transfer money to the car dealer account, car dealer say him never receive alert, the boy say ok, leave the car first make me and my guy go find any nearby restaurant to eat food as we dey wait, but the car dealer immediately raise alarm say na fake alert the boy do for am, na so area begin wose the boys until police wey car dealer call arrive, police quickly sieze the boys phones and bundle them go station, as the boys dey write statement naim car dealer receive alert.

Now the boys say them no want the car again make car dealer refund mone, car dealer dey insist say the boys must collect the car since them don already pay for the car.

Car dealer is at fault.

Even in the worst case the transfer was fake, he still had possession of the car and the sale had not been completed. A sale is only complete when the item has been exchanged for money. I mean this isn’t an online sale.

He raised a false alarm, publicly assaulted the boys, restricted their freedom of movement, got them arrested with their possessions… and still wants to force them to buy the car after it was confirmed the alert was legit?

He needs to refund the guys their money using the same account and the boys should sue him for the harassment, public assault, unlawful detainment and the embarrassment.

The sale can’t be called final in this instance because there was a breach in between the completion of the transaction.

Roland17, Arsenal and saliba agreed on extended rest on sidelines instead of surgery. This particular injury have been happening since childhood from what I read and got bad in 2024.
I still feel surgery will permanently correct this back and forth setbacks

I can’t sit here and claim I am more knowledgeable than the back specialist who reviewed him. I also know that back surgeries are extremely delicate and can worsen if not properly done. It is usually the last resort for backs and the specialist didn’t think he has gotten there.

I’d have loved a 2nd opinion, considering this is a recurring issue but I just hope it is the right decision and we allow him go through his rehab and return at the right time.

I am not expecting to him until after January 2027, so we need to plan accordingly. I’d hate for him to come back and then is still needing pain management to play. Also, whenever he returns, we have to manage his playing time seriously.

A40:
Had a chance to build a solid persona and even be a fan favorite bigger on TV than when he was playing but he went the woke route.

His foot in mouth moments were so many and it was only a matter of time.

The two of his rubbish utterances that stood out to me was when he said Lamar Jackson would be the first authentically black QB to win a Superbowl. Like what does that even mean??

And then he said RG3 can't speak about Angel Reese cos he's married to white women. Meanwhile his first daughter has a white mom

Just an absolute 🤡

A super-clown! He anointed himself the gatekeeper of who is black and who shouldn’t be black. That Lamar Jackson ish was the most annoying for me. Talking about, Lamar Jackson is carrying the weight of the culture on his shoulders.. Like bro WTF!!!!!

Some of these guys start out well but soon exaggerate their influence and think they are bigger than the brand and start drifting extreme with their takes and nonsense. I was an easy call for ESPN and I am glad they did.

Ryan Clark out of ESPN. I could have called it, especially after the Peter Schrager incident. He became unbearable and predictable with a lot of his narratives and hinged everything on race.

Started to sound cocky, egotistical and arrogant as well. Good radiance! He has a podcast, that should keep food on his table.

raumdeuter:
Itsrm knew about Wike well

Omo that guy fit name him son Wike. Man deserves to get something from Wike with the way e dey defend Wike. He has been missing for a minute. I hope say Wike don favor am..

birdman:
Lebron trying to duke spotlight with world cup. Foolish man

Now that its over, we all know where Lebron is going. Gonna end his career back with the cavs.

If we call Ajala Drama Queen now, some of una go begin convulse. I don’t know how he will survive after retirement when the attention dims. I think that is why he wants to keep playing until he is 50.

raumdeuter:
Egbon Roland

Remember hen I told you that Bwala is just capping and those with power na Wike and Tinubu

Oh yea, I have to give it to you, you called it. It is Nigerian politics, it is not for the faint hearted. The game is the game. I hope they back off him post tenure and in the future he stays relevant. He has essentially been “Ambodelized”.

Ellexy:
Sums up you people's hypocrisy. You waited all tournament to tag me to an incident that happened after the final whistle in a final but failed to tag me to the same incident in the semi final because it wasn't from Argentina your made up villains.

By that same logic, England is also a dirty team, after all they had the same number of red cards in this World Cup as Argentina.

And by the way, you people love strawman too much. No where did I try to sell Argentina as saints. Never did that. I said dirty antics is not their first point of call, they can play good and go dirty if the occasion demands it. Matter of fact, throughout this tournament, yesterday's game was the only game they didn't play good football, not that they were dirty, but on the back foot through out game.

If you interpret that as me painting them as saints, then don't quote me again, because you're clearly arguing something different because of agenda.

I don’t give 2s about the meltdown you are experiencing because truthfully, it is unnecessary.

I wasn’t the one actively campaigning for the canonization of Argentina as the Patron Saint of Immaculate Football.

Rather than accept the L and keep it moving, you are busy allowing amala to burn from excessive turning.

I called you out after almost every match because if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, then it is a duck! Guess the team with the most red cards in the WC finals? You always had a convenient excuse for why Argentina fans were unruly or why their players engaged in theatrics and other dirty plays, just like other South American teams.

At the end of the day, Argentina plays dirty football just like other South American countries.. That is the premise on which this Agenda has been standing on! Not England, not Nigeria, Ghana, not Switzerland but South America. Go back to the premise of this agenda and stop dragging others into it..

The feeling is mutual about not quoting me if you continue on this path falsehood.

Ellexy:
Why didn't you tag me when Jude slapped an Argentina player after the semis?

Stop trying to turn amala here. The conversation was about South American football.

Besides, Nobody tried to canonize England as saints but you tried to sell Argentina as Patron Saints of the game..

They are just as dirty as their fellow South Americans.

TrebleChamp:
Argentina like Assnal wanted to use gboko Haram football win a major trophy, but the God of football said "e no go happen" 😁😁😁

At least I get shot on target, come score on top that sef.
