exactly
that midfield combo will despoil Pool. The return and Vida and RIO to the backline will ensure some stability at the backline
If Fletcher starts, Liverpool will be no match for his energy.
His absence in the last 3 games against em = 3 losses for us.


i forsee a 2-0 victory with Rooney getting the 2 goals
Liverpool are shyte at the back. . . . . .I am predicting 4-0 or 4-1.

against Pool

a five man midfield with Rooney boi will be enuff to kill Pool

Carrick, Fletcher, Park, valencia and Nani will be fine

i dont want Scholes and Red card cos Mascherano will be waitin for him

we should win 2-0
We have to play 4-3-3 against Liverpool.
Our midfield is too weak to cope with 4-4-2 against Liverpool. Since the loss of Hargreaves, playing 4-4-2 against TOP TEAMS have cost us.
I wanna see Fletcher-Carrick-Park in the midfield with Nani, Valencia and Rooney doing the business upfront.
The combo of Rio and Vida should be enough cover for VDS. . . . .We should beat Liverpool 3-0.

Interesting Stats: United have not conceded a goal at OT since Agbonlahor scored in December.

I raised that issue because you wanted to know what Zizou did while with Juve.
If Zizou was ordinary,Real wouldn't splash that amount of cash on him.
By the same token, Real splashed 30 milla on Xabi Alonso and Alonso is shyte.
Man City splashed 47 milla on Tevez and the tarado is animal dung.

Zidane @ Juventus was a mediocre player.
Scholes and Keane mopped the floor with his bald head in the years between 1997 and 1999.

Did u read the poster's post at all? did u read where the poster said when he asked him abt marriage, he asked if she has met someone else cuz the dude has to pay him for everything he has put up with since they were together, what a useless man angry
That's just pure fuckery.
The poster said that to buy y'all SYMPATHY. If we listen to the dude's version, he will say something totally different.
How can any man utter such blasphemy about settlement? Na him born the babe?

Pay her bill ko, the guy loves the regular free intimacy, food and making her feel worthless
They both LOVE shagz.
I did not read where the gurl said she was raped or sexually molested.

Yes, marriage is not for everybody so why cant the guy be man enuff to tell the girl how he feels abt marriage right from the start of their relationship better still why cant he look for another chic who doesnt want marriage too ss they can live in sin for the rest of their lives?

Must he marry her to prove he loves her? The dude wants a grand wedding so he is biding his time till things gel for him.
Meanwhile, recession has been in Nigeria since 1983. Naija peops didn't just realise what it was.
The single most important factor is this guy has been with this babe for EIGHT YEARS. . .If he's unserious, he wouldn't have been with her for this long.

Zidane had over a decade at the top. Ronaldinho only had 3.
Stop exaggerating. . . . .Zidane had no brilliance for a decade.
As at 1999, Roy Keane was mopping the floor with Zidane in European games so quit this wankery.

Therefore Zidane is greater than Ronaldinho.
I disagree. . . . Zidane cannot be greater than Ronaldinho based on that fact.
Is Henry greater than Fat Ronaldo just because Henry has longevity? We are comparing the best of Dinho vs the best of Zidane.
Only a blind man will choose Zidane based on what threat they pose to opponents.

If you ask me, at their peaks Ronaldinho was better than Zidane. . . but he cannot be greater than Zidane cos greatness requires discipline and longevity.
By your logic, Kevin Phillips is greater than Van Basten. . . . .Sol Campbell is greater than Sammer and Okocha is greater than Maradona.

Hey Nairalanders, would appreciate your honest,candid advice and opinion on this topic.

I have dated this lady for almost  6 years, with the impression that i am older than her. She lied about her age all these years. A couple of months ago, i made up my mind and decided on taking the relationship to the next level, by asking her to get married to me.

I just recently found out that she is older than i am with three(3) years. I asked her to confirm if it was true. she initially was defensive and in denial, but eventually agreed to have lied about her age all these while. Now i am so confused because i really love her and have given so much into the relationship. I do not really have a problem with getting married to an older lady, so long as she has regards and respect for me. But my worry is why she lied about it for years.

My worry is how many more lies are my going to discover. She has asked me to take a week to think and decide if i still want to go ahead with the relationship, because she doesn't want me deal with the age difference if i can't live with it.

What would you do if you were in my shoes? Again, i don't have a problem with the age difference, but my major concern is the LIE. How many more lies will i discover and hoping it won't be too late.

Honest advice and opinions will be appreciated. Got 5 days left to decide. Should i quit? Should i stay? Food for thought!
Age has nothing to do with it. . . . .U want to quit a relationship because of her age?
What is age apart from being a number. Age is mind over matter. . . . .If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.

I see you are contradicting your points in our Lampard/Gerrard debate to now make a case for Ronaldinho. . . bloody hypocrite!

Anyway, Zizou was great, but a tad overloved. In 2000 for example, Figo was easily the best player in the world based on form, but Zidane won the WPOTY simply cos France won Euro 2000. . . despite the fact he had a shocking domestic season.

Anyway, what Ronaldinho produced from 2004-2006 was a level of performance that Zidane never achieved in his life. . . but greatness comes with discipline. . . Ronnnie was ill-disciplined at PSG, and ill-disciplined from 2006 onward. . . . hence Zidane is greater than Ronaldinho. . .  .but at their peaks, Ronaldinho > Zidane!
Useless argument. . . . . .In other words, Linekar is greater than Maradona because Maradona was ill-disciplined?
Cheese n Rice. . . . .Kluivert is also greater than Romario cos Romario was ill-disciplined?

I beg to differ. . . I think you musta been the one talking to the wrong Brazilians grin
Stop fibbing.

Neither Do I. However neither of us watched footy in the 50's and 60's.
I saw some of those on tapes and i know Garrincha won the 62 WC single-handedly for Brazil.
Pele never did that. He played with better players throughout his stay in Santos.

Remove wetin? Abegii jor those two easily made my list.
Those who saw Der Kasier play can't speak highly enough of him.
Beckenbauer and Cryuff are in the same league as Mario Kempes, Eusebio and Alfredo Di Stefano.
All of em are GREAT players but not in the same echelon as Maradona.

For me both Pele and Maradona are total geniuses but Maradona was superhuman.
If he hadn't been a drug addict with off-pitch issues, he'd probably have won more than 1 world cup.

There is no doubt Pele was flawless technically.
The same could be said in fairness for the likes of Best, Cruyff and Di Stefano who were all as two footed.

However, I just feel Diego took flair of technique to a whole new level that surpassed human understanding.
He was without doubt the greatest entertainer the game has seen.

Manucho made Drogba look like a pub striker in the 2008 Nations Cup.

Samuel Etoo won the TREBLE with Barcelona before joining Inter.
Last season, Etoo scored 30 La Liga goals and scored 6 in the CL. . .

CAF probably got tired of Etoo winning it again and then gave it to Drogba. . . . .Synonymous to Giggsy winning the PFA last season when Cristiano was streets ahead of Giggsy.

I'm actually astounded cuz Most Brazilians see Pele as the greatest ever
U musta been talking to the wrong Brazilians.

But Many peeps would laugh in your face point blank if you told em' Ronaldo is the greatest striker.
Especially  those that saw the likes of Puskas,Muller e.t.c play.
I dunno any striker as powerful as Luiz Ronaldo in the years between 1997 and 1999.
He was Cristiano + Messi + Rooney all rolled in one human.

This is exactly why I say opinions differ.
I for example would name this following players in no particular order as the top 4 players of all time
Pele,Maradona,Beckanbeur and Cruyff
Remove Pele and Cryuff/Beckenbauer from that list, abeg.
We are talking about WORLD'S GREATEST not European's greatest.

chic2pimp:
Well, I don't believe he was streets ahead of Pele(who was ahead of his time when he played)
I also think you'll find the reason he did not play in europe was cuz of the brazilian authorities.
Not forgetting when Pele's Santos came up against European Heavyweights like Benfica and Milan he was the star player on the pitch.
Only two players have won the world cup single-handedly. . . . .Garrincha(1962) and Maradona(1986).
Pele is a great player(without a doubt) but to compare him to Maradona is pushing your luck too far as far as vision, passing and fooball skills are concerned.

For me I rate Diego ahead of Pele for only one thing. No other player that small and mostly one footed was as dominant and as unstoppable as he was on a football pitch.
Maradona had the ability to make players play miles beyond their capabilities, on top of being a supreme performer on the regular himself whilst possessing complete mastery of the ball no other player has ever had an the type of genius that at times could only be seen to be believed.

Maradona is streets ahead of Pele. . . .Forget his off-the-pitch shenanigans. . . .
He was the heart n soul of the Argentine team that won the 86 world cup. . . .Something Pele never did.
Pele never played in Europe. . . . .Maradona lifted a second rated Napoli in Italy and won European titles with them
What else do you need?

Is he better than Pele?well, that's down to peeps personal opinions.
While Pele played with better player I wouldn't necessary call those other players chumps.
All the Brazilians i have spoken to have told me Garincha was a better player than Pele.

That's the great thing about footy we all have different opinions.
For Example I think Ronaldo is the Greatest Striker ever however many peeps would laugh @ me for dearing to say that.
I also agree Ronaldo is the greatest striker ever in the history of association football.
Too bad, his injuries did not let him show more of his rare talents but the little i saw of him in 1996-1998. . . .There's no striker better.

Pele played around better players(Didi, Vava, Garincha).
Even the 1970 world cup they won. . . .Brazil had Tostao, Rivelino, Carlos Alberto, etc.

Maradona won a world cup single-handedly with 10 other chumps
I don't think Pele coulda done that in Maradona's shoes.

Vida scored from a corner against Wolves.
