Messi the programmed footballer who plays like a robot on remote control, with boring straight through runs.

A player who could not leave his comfort zone for decades upon decades.

I wonder how he turns out to be some people's goat!

And forget about world-cup. Normally international football is by luck. He is just lucky.

....Someone is leading on all metric and u called it luck....why wasn't your Ronaldo lucky....abi he is an unfortunate been...better goan sleep...radarada!!

France is a good team...but in this game they will have to bank on moments....they don't have that ability to outplay Spain .they don't have the midfield balance or superiority ...Rabbit is just a decent midfielder ... tchouameni is average too ..( I don't really know how he got to play for Madrid)....so they will need to get that break and purnish Spain....and that chance will surely come ...the only problem is they won't have the ball like they have enjoyed in this competition...Spain won't give them that satisfaction but their chance will come ..hopefully they take it...Spain on standard is a better football team in philosophy than France ...but the blues have much deadlier qualities ...that's just it

Apart from Haaland, please name 5 Norwegian players that are bigger than the English players. Your time starts now!

Is not about been big....Norway has much technical players than England ...and it's obvious ...English football is based on one major thing...which is physical sportsmanship. .so far u are fit and can run very fast , you are cut to play in their team

They do one thing a thousand times to a point it yields a goal. ...no extra or new creativity....every ball will likely go to the flank to get a good ball in and a tap in....you see a team like Spain plays centrally ....you can see England really doing that

They just keep loading u with balls from the wings till u crack

Paraguay showed they are not

They needed a pk to win

Solid stop for front

Their back crumbles under pressure
Teams wey no respect their defense go expose them

Paraguay had to start kicking them so they can atleast stop their confidence..in another game they could have been sent off with a red card...that is not going to work with France. .and you saying their back crumble under pressure is as big lie ....I don't know which match u watched cos Paraguay didn't really smell the goal was only business doing the anti football rubbish ...another point is saying u will take the ball totally to France also is like u digging your grave ...after Morocco consider the third goal they increased the pace of their play and started taking more risk then u saw what happened. .. France would have put alteast another 2 past them if not for barcola and matete wastefulness...the only team I see that can counter their play well is Spain...cos they will stay on the ball and starve them possession....also they dont loose possession as much so they stand less risks of many cutback situations...even I dont thing Argentina will survive this présent france

Sometimes when I see mbappe I wonder what the people who compare him to Ronaldo De lima smokes ....like Kylian is not even close ...asides speed , he has not so much in his locker ..can't dribble in tight spaces....even always making mistakes when showing skills to evade opponent...not super potent in front of Goal...and people compare him to Ronaldo " the phenomenal"...how??

The round of 32 fixture is between teams that are registered names in football and side that feel they re underdogs....taking into cognizance that been an underdog is a mindset....and that is what Morocco as been able to change from 2022 world cup and sticked to ....no team will play Morocco today and see them an an underdog....NO!!..But against other African sides u know even if they score first ...they will immediately go into their shell and sit back,then you can bully them.... INFERIOR FOOTBALL!!!

England doesn't have enough quality to play centrally ....there is always this thing of them going wide everytime....fine ..the opponent will seat back but u can't keep crossing the ball and expect that will yield result all the time ..they don't have that kinda quality that can nick fast passes centrally ...players that sees what most other players won't see (something the French team has) players that can play in tight spaces and create chances...palmer and foden are close to that but they are not in the world cup

You can't win the world up been soo predictable

The way I'm looking at this tournament, FIFA is cooking up something, this is not some kind of conspiracy theories oo, this is just my overthinking opinion.

FIFA is trying by all means to keep the bigwigs still competing because doing that, they make a lot of money.

U will see all this small small countries will be eliminated through that system, bcoz they are insignificant. No Mata what Paraguay play now Germany will still win this match in the last minute.

Anybody still hoping for any African team to go beyond this round of 32, that person is not seeing the bigger picture. Una go see wetin go happen

If an Africa team plays well and takes their chance they will go....not sitting back and hoping to drag a game to extra time like Paraguay is doing

Brazil was there to be taken...I could practically see holes behind them but Japan fidgeted and sat back

I am beginning to learn one thing from this ongoing world cup..."never seat back for anyone" every team is vulnerable...all u need is the "COURAGE" to make the kill...

IronGalaxy:
You guys didnt even get there, so your point?

Our point is we are still your superior in football ..for a team that couldn't muster a short on target in almost 60mims against a depleted Czech Republic...u realy think u are even a force in Africa not to talk of world?...you will need to check Fifa ranking and see where u are in African football

prinsam30:
My brother tell me any striker in that Portuguese team wey beta pass CR7, so na only CR7 dey the pitch abi wetin hold others wey dem no fit score

You Ronaldo fans don't get the point....Ronaldo is still good but not the Ronaldo of 3 years or 4 year....naturally at the age of 40 if u like train like a mad man you cant be the same anymore ..Ronaldo strength are still decent enough to win games but it isn't on the level it use to be ..even his Jump power is not on the level anymore ..his shot precision his reaction level and more....the old man should be starting from the bench and let the world see What Ramos can do ....

COOL10:
Concerning the emboldened :

Did you just start watching football yesterday? The same Neymar who SINGLE HANDEDLY carried Brazil on his back for nearly a decade is the same guy you're asking what he did in previous outings? Seriously?

The fact that Brazil always suffer when Neymar is injured should tell you how impactful he is.

Even with his injuries, a one legged Neymar is a million times better than what is in Brazil's current midfield especially now that he plays as an AM and no longer as a LW. The Brazilian forwards are suffering because no one is giving them accurate passes.


Are you sure you're watching this match live right now? If you were, you wouldn't ask such questions.

Nice but I started disagreeing with u when u said Neymar carried Brazil....as how now...how many cups did he win for Brazil during his spell without injury...the match where Brazil defeated them and put 8 past them....if he had played .. same would have happened...Neymar is a great player but saying he carried Brazil on his backs for decades is laughable ....He carried Brazil on his back and where are the trophies to show for that ...how many trophies if any did he win for Brazil..

If he had played tonight he would have been a short one cos at his age he can't cope with that level of intensity we had today in that game ....the best he would do is to dribble and try and get cheap fouls....abegi

Richtaiwo:
It is amusing how clowns have suddenly discovered the country’s security challenges and now parade them as their winning campaign formula. Even if their celebrated fraud were to win, which is about as likely as snow falling in Maiduguri, is he planning to import an entirely new set of security agencies from China? More importantly, how exactly did he tackle similar security concerns when he had the opportunity as a governor?

What makes the whole argument even more laughable is that several of these security breaches appear to have obvious political undertones. One only needs to recall El-Rufai openly boasting about having a role in some of these developments. Otherwise, what possible justification could there be for intercepting the conversation of the NSA? Incidents like that raise more questions about political motives than they do about genuine security failures.

You can as well bury your head in shame alongside your candidate whom after you all bragged about him been a master strategist and make him look like the next best thing after Jollof has failed at a very unprecedented level to a point where u you have no reasonable or logical excuse to back his inadequacy again....you should likewise find somewhere to seat and not come here to patronize us on why we should vote anyone cos tell me one reasonable point you made before voting for the old hag in 2023 asides the fact that he built Lagos , "a city without good health system nor good drainage"...

Leadership is about impact and if after 4 years you don't give any remarkable impact , it's the choice of the people to send you back to your house...

Contrarily it is unnecessary for you to start giving us the vibe your APC master strategist is hoping for a free and fair election next year cos even a blind man knows he can never win based ok

We all know you guys already have a good permutation of how you will rig and buy people next year...I hope u guys don't succeed with that and get disgraced shamefully

This is the best time for Oÿo state to do the needful ...don't negotiate with those terrorists ..once they do ,then they have opened up an avenue for business in oyo state ..yesterday, kids and their mother were kidnapped at challenge...that shows some entities within the state can even start kidnapping low key to get few millions too .cos if terrorist who take 40 people gets 100 million,that means taking one or two people will bring in few millions atleast...the simple reason why this kidnap keep gaining more grounds is because none of it has been foiled and federal government have been paying ...any day a version kidnaps someone and they get cut then that will start sending a message to the perpetrators that ...once u kidnap you can be caught even if u use humans has shield..

Although this sounds very inhumane for this innocent kids in the bush cos they are going through hell. .but it always starts like this in every state insecurity has taken over...

It's better they face it headlong in oyo and send a message or be prepared to keep paying

We need to start getting better qualities into our team... especially in attack

How is onachu still been called up for super eagles ...which criteria is been used to make that guy play for Nigeria a big footballing nation....at 2-1 we needed his presence upfront to help hold the ball up that fool can't even do it ..he can't run..he can't press. ..he can't hold possession

The midfield was flat and had nothing to bring in clear chances..without Iwobi we seem to lack any creativity going forward ...in the whole of this nation from foreign land to local league ...we still can't produce a viable creative midfielder

We don't deserve to draw this game ...we played rubbish ..we should thank VAR for that penalty

I am expecting a total outclass from Portugal..

Rice....groundnut and okro
Bread and ewedu
Bread and okro
Rice and gbegiri soup
Rice and ogbono


The list goes on...
I can literarily eat draw with anything....

Many here are making me laugh....like it's funny to hear u all say both teams can't defend there lead...ohhh....so after they score each other u expect them to seat back and defend...okay guess what ....that was what Madrid tried to do again Bayern in the second leg....they tried giving them the ball and seat behind....but what ended it?...even tonight at a point when it was 5-2 ...Enrique brought in Fabian Ruiz to put more physicality in the middle to contain Bayern ...but what happened ?...Bayern scored 2 goals and was about to come back.....you all seem to understand the attacking and creativity level this two teams possess ..they both destroy teams almost every week in their league...you think those teams don't know how to park the bus too??....it will be nice to see your team park the bus and seat back against this super creative Bayern side if you won't be trailing by 3 goals in 30 minutes ...try it against PSG to but ask inter last champions league final....

crazygod:
This PSG are being coached by a world class Manager. Bayern Munich just get World class players that is being coached by an average manager. It shows.
Olise goal is just down to individual brilliance.

A team that plays a possession based football and created chance everywhere on the pitch

A team that pinned Madrid back and was playing them half field for almost a whole 45 minutes is coached by an average coach

Can u just listen to yourself

RandDigital:
Learn the meaning of xenophobia. I'm talking about illegal aliens and not documented African migrants which I don't have a problem with for reasons we can discuss.

Has your illegal South African's mental health been checked. Can't imagine moving from SA to Nigeria for a better life😂 He was most probably deceived into moving there and then found himself stranded. I've spoken to Nigerians before who described the country as the best thing since sliced bread unaware I know the

Stay there and be fooling yourself ..you people actually think there are not many Nigerians living a far better life than south Africans....the expensive life Nija boys dey live una south Africans no fit put body only if una won die

Liam Rosenoir should do the best thing for his career and resign ....I think that will be better ...this job came at a time you are not ready....Stratsborg is not Chelsea and the difference in standard and requirement is wide apart....its not your fault ..its the foolish board that signed u and feel you are good enough...do the best thing for your career and resign tomorrow cos there is no way u ain't getting sacked sooner or later which isn't a good one for your CV

When challenges and hard time faces u in the future ..."i hope it doesn't" just know u don't have a family to call on....and I can't bet on the fake people you call FANS ...enjoy foolish man!!

I don't know what the board is still doing keeping liam....what style of football does Chelsea play....the only little possession they have is from what they were playing during maresca era ...WE DON'T HAVE A FLUENT ATTACKING PATTERNS and it's a shame ..to worsen it all we don't have quality attackers ....its better to sack him now and use an interim coach bounce to push to maybe europa instead of doing Rubbish and playing conference again

My own be say make Vinicius try collect olise number ...fix meeting with him for extra classes on how to be a good and sweet footballer ....instead of fooling himself in a Madrid shirt...olodo omo oshi!!!

LIVINGICONREBOR:
Man city will very likely loose or draw dat game tomorrow. You don't want to bet against Chelsea.

Chelsea will win city...with which defence...with which goal keeper ..under a coach that wants every ball passed to the goal keeper ..arsenal fans should just prepare to do it the hard way against city next week...Chelsea cant save your asses

LIVINGICONREBOR:
Arsenal will still win this league. Man city is not the man city of old, they will surely lose their games. Arsenal will be epl champion come May. It is already written in the stars.

And you will win all yours now..abi ..if you can loose at home against Bournemouth .u can still loose against any team away..dey play...is like u forget the city u are talking about is out of the champions league and have just the EPL to play for to get any big trophy...your Arsenal is still in champions league and will still field a strong side against sporting on Wednesday....city is free from that ....and if you are banking on Chelsea to do a miracle for u tomorrow ...u must be kidding...there is no way Chelsea is beaten a fully fit and hungry city side. If it had been under Maresca the hope can be there ..but under "Liam Rosemary" ...Chelsea will be turn apart tomorrow

kole22k:
That is a lesson the life has thought him, to be strategic and diplomatic dont allow people to understand your weaknesses, build on your strengths...this is a lesson everyone must learn...the man has survived so many difficulties and challenging moments in his life but yet he's unbeatable, his knowing to be a master of strategy, whether you like him or hate him he has make a significant mark in the history of Nigeria that no one or even generations can erase. Happy birthday to our president GCFR Bola Ahmed Tinubu...long live FRON

So what impact does this have on the average man in Nigeria ...when Nigerians voted him , did they do that so he can fulfill destiny or come to deliver ..what rubbish is ..he has had achievement nobody had ..what special thing of great memory has he done to Nigeria in his whole existence aside using money to buy people ...Rubbish!!

So this was the kind of football liam intends playing.....cos to me everything is down to the coach....this is rubbish ...and what kind of rubbish press is that ...this team can't even press well ..if they keep pressing like a pregnant woman and with no tactical plan everton will destroy them in the second half...

CJERRYEMILEX:
The rule is the rule, keep emotion aside, Senegal guffed by walking off the pitch like they were playing some secondary school competition(Principals Cup), the rule is that if 5 players of the same team are off the pitch the referee will close the match in favour of the other team, in fact the ref should have close the match that day after they walked off the pitch, there shouldn’t have been any continuation because it made mockery of the rules guiding football.

Even though I didn’t like Morocco’s unjust favoritism through out the tournament and I was really routing for Senegal to win but there should be consequences for actions for deterrence .

Why didn't the refree declare Morocco the winner when they walked off the pitch....u r started the game Senegal scored and u gave them medal and trophy ..then this

And taking about misconduct....didn't Morocco seize our goalkeepers towel...and what happened on that..

Everyone know Morocco would do anything to win that trophy

I dont know what you expect the coach to do o....you people had a better coach in Enzo Maresca but una chase am....like it or not Chelsea has gotten themselves a board that will take them years behind....look at this team very well, this project as a team has gone many step behind or can't u all see

Maresca was done with all the crap your owner was throwing at him so he had to find one excuse and bounce....reality should be dawn on Chelsea fans by now that they don't have a squad big and quality enough to fight for anything ....

Not just cos the team lost today ....Newcastle of all team was able to rest many players today and come play Chelsea away and still won ...Arsenal rotated their squad and got a win...but Chelsea played almost all players that started against PSG on Tuesday....why?? ..cos we have no debt ..injury asides .can you trust the pairing of tosin and badiashile against a fast Newcastle??...Neto was rubbish and couldn't have done much

I still don't understand how Chelsea owners believe they can compete with a team full of average players and toddlers ...where is the quality....Chelsea has no quality ...it even feel worse in attack that we need to hope for a cole palmer that was a squad player in city to come help us compete .....

The most annoying part is every start of the season it feels like the squad is big but by January it shrinks....why did the chelsea board sign falcundo...why did they sign dusbryhall....this are players that aren't on Chelsea's level by any length byr were signed to come do what

The project of signing young players to increase their value now seem to be a failed project cos most of this boys aren't even playing...who will buy them ??

Chelsea fans should channel their anger on the board....look at every top team in that top 3..do u have their quality...Maresca was so good to have even drilled so much out of this team

One of the very few people left born in the 18 century ..really wish I could see one who was old enough to explain how life was back then but I guess the baba won't be able to cos he was a toddler then....Lord jezz

USE YOUR BRAIN.

Where did you see Iran developing nuclear weapons?

Was it not these same bloodthirsty warmongers that claimed IRAQ had nuclear weapons, went there and slaughered a million people only for it to be shown that they LIED?

Has anyone been held to account for that?

NO.

Now they've come again with their LIES about ''Iran nuclear weapons'', and you accept.

The same ''nuclear weapons capability'' Trump said he'd ''obliterated'' a few months ago.

The IAEA has said repeatedly that there is ZERO EVIDENCE of Iran enriching uranium for nuclear weapons.

The Ayatollah that was just assassinated HAD ISSUED A FATWA against nuclear weapons, saying it was un-Islamic.

He's now been replaced by his son, who DID WANT NUKES, and has just said to America, ''no more negotiations. Let's fight''.

...

Do you live in Iran....NO
Do you or can you ever have the level of Intel USA and ISREAL has about Iran....NO
If Iran has nuclear war head or have completed the program ..do u expect them to come and advertise it to the world

The people who said they have it know more than u and have eyes everywhere...and for them to not want such mission to achieve success means they know if they do the middle east isn't safe...

Lastly do you have a direct contact with the Iranian military heads to know what they plan discreetly.....NO...so please rest...

Svoboda:
Stop consuming western bullsh.. The only country that has ever nuked a fellow country is the US, the so called global police. Has Iran ever invaded a sovereign nation seeking regime change?

That's cos they don't have nuclear capability especially in this age....let them have a stockpile of it then see how everyone in the world won't be safe
