coogar: torres scored plenty of goals as a liverpool striker
liverpool creates far many chances than chelsea. the comparison defies logic. torres spearheads a chelsea midfield that do not create enough chances for their strikers. suarez has taken the most shots in the league and the credits go to downing, gerrard, sterling and suso.
Guy! Stop being economical with the truth when analysing football.You're too sentimental.Suarez's goals are in MOST cases worked by him hence he's rarely condemn for being selfish.Read more about Suarez on ESPN players' profile. Sturidge would have been scoring too if he had been given enough playing time in Chelsea. CFC over reliance on FT affected him.
Demba's performance, number of goals scored and created have justified the creativity of Chelsea's midfield!

Since Pep has gone to Munich and Klopp snubbed Chelsea, attentions are now being directed to Moyes and Michael Laudrup. Chelsea have been here before ( under-performing) before Mourinho had to break the Arsenal-Manchester United stranglehold in order to truly announce his arrival. Now it is the Manchester neighbors that are dominating EPL and their hegemony needs to be broken.We need a manager that has Mounrinho-esque tactical acumen. Ibime, Nateevs, El Guapo and distinguished Chelsea fans, If you were the technical director, which manager would you recommend for Chelsea's job?

app_lord: Ba on torres

'I just want to enjoy my football, it's not about pressure, it's about playing a game I like, and that's what I'm doing,' said the player who has now scored 15 goals this season.

'I'm here to help the group and the team; it's not about taking the position of someone else. I know Fernando is the main man.

'I've just come, I will learn from people and I will learn from him as well because his history is much bigger than mine.'

Very mature response from him.I can't wait to see him bagging goals for Chelsea in the EPL. Go Chelsea! Chelsea Go!!
Some transfer rumors are beginning to pour in though.Heard Chelsea is planning buying Isco of Malaga and Benat of Betis. Heard Benat will cost 20 million Euros.Both are to be brought in in the summer. The sky is always blue!

SportsWhat Are Your Best Club Football Moments Of 2012? by sawyer89(op): 3:01pm On Dec 28, 2012
A lot of great and entertaining club matches were played this year.Many of these matches were fascinating,thrilling, shocking and most importantly entertaining.Matches such as the Manchester derbies,EL clasicos, the two legs of Chelsea vs Napoli, Barcelona and Chelsea Champions league encounter, and the UEFA Champions league final where Chelsea FC was crowned the king of Europe were amongst many matches that redefined the club football world.
What are your best five club football moments of 2012?

Too bad! But why the self-imposed boredom?You be Naija guy now.Studying on christmas day?Wao! are you a nerd?A day off book won't drain your GP.
BTW, I took something weird for breakfast too-Noodles,egg,bread and tea.Very funny combo.
Headed to a friend's place later in the day;lot of eating and drinking.Ate pounded yam with vegetable.Left the place to my Anty's place.I was welcomed with goat peppersoup- It was sumptuous.Retired home later in the day after some couple of drinks with my hommies.
Christianity EtcHow Was Your Christmas Celebration? by sawyer89(op):
The much anticipated Christmas had come and gone.A lot of money, time and energy were invested by many to make it worthwhile.
The truth is, thousands of chickens,turkeys and goats were mercilessly slaughtered and happily consumed throughout the world.I'm sure those animals would notice drastic reduction in their population yesterday.Hmm! Poor things.
A lot of funs took place yesterday too; family reunion, old student get-together,picnics etc. Friendships and relationships were made and also destroyed.
Hey guys,How was your christmas celebrated?

EventsThe World Ends 21st Dec., 2012-Mayan calender.What preparations are you making? by sawyer89(op):
The Mayan calender ends on the 21st of December which is just a couple of days to go. Many people (even some notable figures) have been speculating that day to be the end of world.Their speculations are based on the Apocalypse and Nastrodamus predictions. What special preparations have you been making concerning that day?
NB- I'm skeptical about those predictions.I have been making right my wrongs though, incase it's true I'll not want to be caught unaware.
Gist us about your preparations.

I don't know how true but I read in one of these transfer gossips that Chelsea is preparing a €30 milla transfer fee for Sergio Busquet inorder to bring him to London in January.
Guess the TD is restructuring the defensive midfield.I hope that is true sha 'cos the restructuring is long overdue.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by sawyer89:
Great game! I hope Torres is back for good.
But I doubt if Benitez will be given a permanent deal even if he starts scoring regularly. I read on goal.com that baba olowo is preparing a €25 milla per annum salary package for Pep for an end of the season deal and also considering Dortmund's Klopp as plan B.It seems the man is still keen on the tiki taka football.
I hope our Europa outing won't affect our EPL performance sha.Top 4 finish should be our highest priority this season although I'll be glad if Chelsea win the Europa but it's gonna be a herculean task considering the calibre of teams in the competition.
The great thing is the sky is always blue-Chelsea for life!

Hmm!So dissapointing Chelsea thread has turned into a war zone.More sorrowful is the fact that so many people here can't debate intellectually without using foul languages or abuse.It will be nice if we are polite and exhibit some form of courtesy in our arguements.Shalom!
EducationRe: University Of Abuja: Protesting Student Disrupt Examinations At The by sawyer89: 3:47pm On Nov 20, 2012
lugzii: There was pandemonium at the two campuses of the University of Abuja located at Gwagwalada and Airport Road area of Nigeria’s federal capital territory Abuja as students went on a rampage to protest the non-accreditation of some of their courses.

The protest, which commenced at 6:00 AM, was started by Engineering students. Many students soon joined in blocking the main gate of the school to protest harsh conditions of education and general mismanagement of the university by officials the students regard as incompetent and irresponsiwide.

Trust me,those students who later joined the protest are lazy students who are scared to commence the exam because they haven't read.

Thank God her life was not totally destroyed by a drug addict, and yet a fa.g.got called Seun Kuti is canvassing for the legalization of Marijuana! Only irresponsible people who are keen to see more of mad people laying havoc on innocent Nigerians will support his hullabaloo.(cos to me he is just making noise).
So happy for you lady.I am sure your story will inspire many and make them believe there is still hope, no matter what.

Nairaland GeneralPhoto Of Huge Snake (55ft): Biggest Snake In The World by sawyer89(op):
The thread claimed the snake was one of two enormous boas found by workers clearing forest for a new road. They apparently woke up the sleeping snakes during attempts to bulldoze a huge mound of earth. This is Biggest snake in the world!!

“On the third dig, the operator found there was blood amongst the soil, and with a further dig, a dying snake appeared,” said the post.

“By the time the workers came back, the wounded boa had died, while the other snake had disappeared. The bulldozer operator was so sick that he couldn’t even stand up.”

The post claimed that the digger driver was so traumatised that he suffered a heart attack on his way to hospital and later died.

The dead snake was 55ft (16.7m) long, weighed 300kg and was estimated to be 140 years old, according to the post.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by sawyer89:
Let us put sentiments apart and face the truth! It's hard sometimes to condemn your favourite footballer(s).Truth be told, Torres in the blue Chelsea jersey is miles apart from Liverpool's Torres.
Arguments abound that he's not being given clear cut goal scoring through passes but then I wonder 'how does he utilize the few passes given to him?'
Only people with their eyes at the back of their heads would fail to see and admit that Torres's malaise is far beyond the number of assists he gets.His low self-confidence is so obvious for all to see, and that is beginning to affect his game.
Hazard and Mata are delivering high number of assists-not to Torres of course.Then I asked myself why.I discovered after indepth observation that FT positioning is poor. My one time most admired striker would be hiding at the back of the opponent defenders <probably sizing their butt> when he's being given Cech-Drogba-esque pass that requires him to chest down and shoot at goal.
Hey! Must my guy dribbles to score a goal.Shoot at the damn goal when you have the chance but na otherwise he go do.
Class is permanent but form is temporary so they say.Hence, his not-so-superb form might be a passing fad! I hope and pray so.
Blaming the midfielders for his ordeal amounts to trivializing Torres' situation.It's important not to be economical with the truth when analysing football!

HealthRe: Severe Tooth Ache by sawyer89: 4:25pm On Sep 20, 2012
I'll advise you get them checked pronto by a Dentist to avoid the pain/decay spreading to the other teeth! All the teeth might not be removed depending on the level of their decay vis-a-vis the depth of the holes in them, some might be re-filled.
Drugs will not permanently cure the pain, the pain will reoccur again after sometime. All the best!
NB:Please, how can i whiten my teeth?

Oga Jarus had said it all. I used to think you can't get a good paying job without having a god father or a well-to-do Uncle until I met a beneficiary of the merit driven selection process of a highly revered MNC.
I think the most important thing is to be hardworking and always preparing-mastering aptitude and interview skills.Not forgeting the basic-graduating with a good grade.
