coogar: walcott had more minutes on the pitch to generate that!
theo walcott - 8 goals + 11 assists in 2728 league mins
luiz nani - 8 goals + 12 assists in 2104 league mins.

as you can see walcott played 624 mins more = 7 full matches more! this is another evidence that nani has no equal in the league. walcott had an outstanding season but even his best still falls short of nani with extra 7 games under walcott's belt!

walcott played 7 league games more and he still fell short of nani - whoaaaaaaaa!!!!
If he is indeed a maverick as you claim and very vital to UTD, perhaps we would keep him on the field more. Injuries aside, this stat potentially only shows how highly AW rates Walcott and how AF, on the other hand is gradually losing faith in your maverick!

coogar: nani is our most explosive player - when it went pear-shaped on sunday, nani was the maverick brought in to change the game!
Here you go again with your "Ikpeba" type of analysis. . .Even the hattrick hero confirmed that Scholesy was the catalyst of change in that game!



coogar: nani has been standing up ever since ronaldo left!
Then he must be incredibly short!

maclatunji: Is it also possible that the person you choose might just be fortunate to have come into your life at the right time that you were ready to settle-down? It is quite possible to miss-out on your ideal partner because of extraneous variables. Like the girl is ready but the guy is without means or the the guy is ready but the girl had to go abroad to study. Things like that.
You make a fantastic point here. . .

Its very easy for folks to say. . .

I have Gambian neighbours some of whom still practice the old, original tradition of "housewife-ship" - as in the woman does absolutely nothing but stay in and take care of the home-front. . .no exaggeration; she doesn't do anything to generate any form of stipend, nothing to develop herself, just the domestic stuff and depends on her husband for everything else.

You don't want to be in this position when the man is not around and some urgent need has to be catered for. . .trust me, you don't!

coogar: its a disgrace to valencia that nani with less minutes on the pitch was more direct than valencia. majority of those off target shots are from set pieces! valencia plays it safe or runs with the ball to the flanks to deliver a cross. nani pulls the trigger from any range - check out his goal against chelsea----valencia wouldn't have attempted such!



the most relevant stats for a winger is his goals/assists - pass completion, shot conversion, etc are not important! nani had less minutes on the pitch and still outperformed valencia!
Errrm. Before you begin to conclude, have you taken into account the fact that some of those minutes were spent at right-back!?

The crux of the matter is not comparing Nani v. Valencia - the main thing is, we I personally feel he hasn't done enough, or as much as his talent suggests he can do. . .the same Walcott we are bashing here got 8 goals and 11 assists last season, yet he is nowhere near as skillful, pacy or even strong as NaniThe Maverick (who happens to fall like a bazooka'ed antelope anytime he is touched another very annoying feature of his game).

No doubt the figures he posts now are impressive but clearly not good enough. . .like I said about last season, Rooney aside, we always had to look up to Valencia, The Council of Elders (scholes and Giggs) or the high heavens for some "spark". This season, it is looking like RvP (and some thought it wasn't a necessary buy-smh). . .

Will the "real"Maverick please stand up!!?

in waffi parlance, e dey fall we hand die!

coogar: well done....
i respect your opinion......i'd like you to take me to the parallel universe where 280 is more than 320. then again, you are the one putting nani in the same bracket as ronaldo(the best player on the planet), no one has asked you to do that and i am yet to see you compare rooney to messi or compare lindegaard to casillas!
Ha ha.

The man who claims Pep was chasing Nani - just a few posts back, you were labelling him a maverick - why watering down on your earlier claims now!?

A couple of seasons back, here is a man touted by you and many others as the man to step out of the shadows and fill that "CR7-void". . .yet you expect me to celebrate his mediocrity!?

Ujujoan: It's amazing how much of an issue this is becoming. . . . a woman NOT having a job!

God originally intended for man to be the sole PROVIDER. Women are considered HOME-MAKERS and HELPERS; not am associate PROVIDER!

I really do not think men should make it a big deal that their wives do not work, afterall, taking care of the family, financially, is originally the man's sole responsibility!
I take it then that you wouldn't marry a man who is incapable for of catering for your needs even if you love him to pieces!!?

Exactly!

afrodoc: Haba Ruudie u myt as well take [b]Bebe,Obertan,Luke Chadwick and Ritchie Jones! [/b]Its not a matter of wether he is delivering up to his full potential,its a question of "how many of those guys can give d number of assists n goals he gives?"
D argument can b made dt rooney hasn't lived up to his teenage potential but dt doesn't mean we sell him and buy Bobby Zamora who has overachieved on his!
Are those guys as good as Nani!!?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by RuuDie(m): 8:27am On Sep 05, 2012
Now, don't get it twisted. . .I still the dey vex for the a55hole with a passion; only DW19 matter tops my vexation as far as am concerned - but I just want you to see where some of this vitriol is coming from and I think this guy was able to highlight 'em relatively well!

I expected and still expect more than this from Nani. . .Don't get me wrong, he is fantastic player; I know he's got loads of skills, I've always thought he is a better footballing brain than CR7 - but why is it that I can't put my money on him delivering when it is crunch time!? Why doesn't he inspire any belief in me!!?

Thats why I would take a Walcott, Downing, Milner, Jarvis, Lennon, Young, Agbolahon, Pennant, Gervinho, Puncheon, Nzogbia - they are, at best, averagely equipped guys, no denying this. So the disapppointment isn't much if they cannot "perform miracles" - but from Nani, knowing his potential, I expect (demand) magic. . . and he is depriving me that just now. Another thing is time - how much more do we have to wait for him to deliver on the promise that his potential holds!? How much longer can the average fan who isn't head over heels in love with him wait!!?

He has delivered way below my expectations; probably for the better that he didn't get the #7 shirt, the increased weight of expectation might crank up the pressure a bit more and hurt rather than help him.

This is my pain, this is my annoyance!

pro01: That's right. I thought it was a case of one mumu love-struck jobless Romeo that wants to marry 'by-fire-by-force' so that another well to do man wouldn't snatch his Juliet. Lol. The OP has no problem as long as her husband is capable and isn't complaining. I reckon most men I know do not care that much about their wife's employment status. All they want is a good woman who would keep her laps closed to 'intruders', take care of him and the homefront, and generally behave like a good wife should.

Employment and financial security in a marriage context is a much bigger worry for men than women, particularly in the early stages - at least in this part of the world. So the OP can afford to take her time, develop herself, and explore worthwhile options until something meaningful materialises in the long run. I must however commend her thoughtfulness and seeming good sense though. That's a rarity among young naija women these days.
You never know. . .the prospective hubby might well fall in that category; albeit without the jobless - he might not be as financially buoyant as he or they both think. This is the bane of most average naija men. . .not ever being able to tell when we are ready in terms of the money. Most just take blind risks!

Ah well, @ OP, all the best!!!

StarBoard: If it's all for the better, I won't mind seeing a few people go.
Right now, a DM is a modern football necessity.
I am not advocating against getting a DM; am just trying to look at it from SAF's angle - Cleverly, Ando, Carrick (depending on formation) may not get to play much if we get a DM; especially if he is a big-name, high-profile signing!

But I agree with coogar that the lads are just being too lazy. . .they spend way too much time ball-watching rather than getting stuck in giving the opposition too much time on the ball. If they work as a unit, mark and press harder together, front-to-back we won't worry too much about a DM!

chamotex: Fergie is a stubborn goat.
We are the only team in Europe without a natural DM in the whole squad.
If we buy a DM - he's going to be somewhat indispensable meaning, as in feature in most of the games - there will be so many players rendered redundant!
2 or 3 players need to leave for us to bring in a DM.

StarBoard: At this rate we won't see any meaningful midfield play without the golden Gingerhead.
Tom Cleverley and Shinji Kagawa hardly did anything properly in the game.our best midfield axis still remains Scholes-Carrick.Which is a shame.We had a chance to move on from that but here we are still stuck on asking Scholes to orchestrate our middle.
Like RuuDie said, [b]Nani(played fairly well today) Anderson, Young and Welbeck and Cleverly [/b]are the reasons Fergie won't let Giggs and Scholes retire.

The likes of Nani, Young, Anderson, Welbeck etc are the reason why the likes of Giggs, Scholes are still playing today. No one has 100%, cast-iron faith in 'em!

Anyways, the jury is out - especially on Nani and Anderson, who are not Brits - perform below expectations and they will definitely go the way of Berbatov. . . no two ways about it!

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has raised the possibility of record signing Dimitar Berbatov returning to Tottenham.

Berbatov has no future at Old Trafford and, after a day of speculation, it was thought the Bulgarian had settled on a move to Fulham. Cottagers boss Martin Jol spoke optimistically about the transfer on Thursday but Ferguson insists no deal has been completed.

"I do not know what has happened," the Scot said. "He has not gone yet. I do not know anything about it. There's not been any contact from him. We thought he was in Italy but it turned out he isn't. He could be anywhere. I really mean that. I wouldn't be surprised if he was at Tottenham. There are rumours going around. I do not think it is settled at Fulham."
