That was going in

Ebukacute:
What baffles me the most is watching people who are struggling to survive passionately defend the same government under whose policies they continue to suffer. Many of them are uncertain about where their next meal will come from, yet they remain APC's loudest defenders. Those living abroad may have political or personal interests wey dey make them turn Sergio Ramos, but when it comes to those who bear the direct impact of the country's challenges every day, I genuinely struggle to understand what they believe they stand to gain. Omo!!?

Classic Stockholm syndrome

E don happen

This Messi 👜 is an irritant with annoying personality

We be guys. E no fit turn anything.

I'm speaking from the player angle. The amount of smear campaign I've seen on Jaylen Brown these past few days is ridiculous. Even the Grizzlies did not do that with Ja Morant who was causing real problems, not even Draymond Green.

He was the longest tenured Celtic. For almost half a decade if not more. He deserved better treatment

I don't normally go above and beyond to side with players but this JB own is different. It's not his fault he's a highly intelligent brother with an opinion and performances to back it up

This path was inevitable. Anyone could have seen it from afar. JB needs to have his own team and he isn’t getting that with the Sixers; so what’s all the noise about being the face of the Celtics? He isn’t usurping Maxey neither is he even going to be a Robin with the Sixers! So what did he exactly gain?

There is no smear campaign here. If you know the city of Boston and the Celtics, you should know the Boston media are ruthless when it comes to the team. The team is sacred and bigger than any player.

JB is respected and adored in the city, I should know better than most, irrespective of whatever the media wants to spin. Most Celtics fans hurt when we lose great players. We have historically shown love and respect to our former players and JB won’t be different.

Y’all need to learn basketball doesn’t end on the court!

greypencils:
In all, I see you are hyper loyal to your Celtics and you dont care much about your players. I levied that accusation when Jrue was traded. I am doing so again. Y'all final MVP? For real? Draymond Greene is FARRRR WORSE than JB and the GSW is still holding him. I dont care about franchises, I never did. But my players, I love them till death.

Respectfully, you are not in any position to define my fandom with the Celtics, neither is it open to your interpretation, especially as it relates to players that represent the club.

If your loyalty and fandom is to the players that represent your team, that’s you and your warriors; it doesn’t have to a consensus or a generalized approach to fandom. I am in no position to teach you how to support your team, so please don’t do same with me.

You don’t have to love the Celtics, I don’t give 2s about it. Several HOFs and championships have come to Boston. We did not stumble on being the most successful franchise.

birdman:
Warriors are not Celtics. Cut coat according to your organization. And he better take it lying down, he is an employee, and needs to remember somebody is writing the check. May God give the young man common sense to know which battles to pick.

I have chosen to not engage any further on this topic before e turn another thing for this thread or present like I hold any iota of grudge or animosity against JB. I wish him all the best though.

People don’t understand the dynamics of organizations they find themselves in.

airmark:
They will not say the truth that a natural striker was needed. Martinez was spot on.

Martinez got his all his substitutions correct. The timing of the substitutions were even perfect!

A40:
Fraudnandes. I know his name

Man is a big fraud! If na Scummies now he would be spamming crosses, farming assists, yelling at team mates and throwing tantrums.. E don reach Big boys stage werey don turn Ekuke..

Thank you L. Modric!

What a player!!!

MrMcJay:
Some of the players themselves knew it was offside.

The touch by the Portuguese player was non-deliberate. He wasn’t even attempting to touch the ball, if anything he was avoiding the contact.

Kilishihunter:
Yamal should sha play better than the poor performance he did last year

Than he has been showing this WC sef!

For his level and hype he has been average thus far!

And Una say dis WC no sweet Abi?

Offside

He looked off by 2 plots of land in my village..

He has to be offside..

Ibime e don do him work.

Gvadiol werey don score

Luka Modric, what a legend! One of greatest midfielders of his generation!

Thank you for the memories!

Ibime:
After the way a 35 year old Messi outsprinted him thrice in the same move at the last World Cup, Croatia should have withdrawn his passport

Many players dey hide behind good coaches. Once dem comot, they look poor.

Unlimited22:
Why he no cross since

The ones wen e cross wen nobody connect with nko?

Bruno needs to sit on the bench. He has had a horrendous tournament.

Ibime:
So they brought Gvardiol on to just allow Ramos to score easily 2 minutes later?

Werey answered my question immediately..

Na why e no Dey start

Unlimited22:
Leao you fool


That’s what happens when you cross you absolute donkey

Allow my boy abeg oh! He has been one of their best players. You no see the smile when he cross the ball?

Golden boy go dey score or assist dey smile!!!

#LEAO

G. Ramos…

Why is Gvadiol not starting?

Kilishihunter:
All these spaces Portugal are leaving in their midfield might favour Spain if both sides meet

Croatia midfield will do that to any team. They did the same thing in the last WC.

Pendu has been substituted for Neves.

Sucic score but that looks tight

Croatia’s midfield trio are just slicing through Portugal.

Their midfield has also always been their area of strength. They have developed very good midfielders over the last 2 decades.

Costa don stand on him head oh! Another strong save!
