Are you kidding me?

Same Ancelotti o. Same Madrid. Many of us never imagined a Madrid after Cr7, Benzema, and those guys that balled under Mou that year. But Zidane came. Don Carlo too. Don't underestimate the Don's ability to get replacement to keep the wheel spinning just fine. Madrid can make us forget Kroos if they want.

I have to accept the bolded as a fact.

Vischy:
I think valverde replaces him easily alongside tchoumeni, camavinga and Bellingham in diamond formation

Kroos was unplayable. It will be a tough task for Valverde

BlueRayDick:
There's no player Madrid cannot replace

There's evidence. I agree.

Vischy:
I saw Gyokeres too vas Porto and he wasn't that great but can still make a good striker.

€100m release clause is too much though

Exactly bro.
He is just a good point man that can get at the end of goals. But he doesn't have that ability to influence games.

daveP:
Thank you for this. If anything at all, we need to mirror the mentality of the champions and try to equal or find ways to outsmart their moves. See how the madrid team is going to be set up next season and you'll begin to wonder if they're not greedy enough. We don't even know who they'll be onto to replace Modric and Kroos but i know they're planning that already.
No be all this talk of "scoring is not our problem"


The Finals that happened in the last 3weeks had teams that know how to score struggling(including Madrid), and we never reach their level o. Until mistakes occured.

Mentality... Like Lookman vs Bayer04.

See Ceballos o😎
That means 5 ex-Gunners played in a Uefa final/won a medal


See Madrid alone. I heard Rodrygo is leaving. Dunno how true sha.

Madrid without Kroos will not be the same again. It is almost impossible to replace him in that diamond midfield Ancelotti loves to play.

mostob:
The fact is ready made Striker no dey outside now. All we have are just prospects.

1. Sesko
2. Gyokeres
3. Osimhen
4. Vlahovic
5. Dovbyk

Who would you go for?
Personally, my choice is between Sesko (close call between him and Gyokeres).
Napoli wants 130m for Osimhen and he is currently injured. That rules him out of my options.

Either Sesko or Gyokeres. Personally I see/suspect Gyokeres as scam. That's because I saw this guy playing for Coventry last season. He is even 26 years old.

Lush100:
.
No sir
Scoring was not a problem for laat season but winning some matches was a problem and that's because when opportunity/chances comes we didn't take all of them.
We could have won the league with 89 points but another team went further to get 91 points.
So we need to see how we can improve.
I'm not castigating the team. I'm very proud of them but looking at the UCL format we need to close out all identified weakness.
Mbappe has joined Real Madrid.(this has solved their goal threat problem even with them winning the La Liga.)
We should also look to ours

Ok I get your point. 👍🏽

The teams we lost to were mid table teams that defended in a low block. A striker would have opened them up.

Lush100:
.
Yes.
Goals difference and goals.
G Jesus should have solved this prob for us but he's more interested in build up.
I remember martinelli didn't pass to I think saka 2 seasons ago we should have won Liverpool.
Trossard is already making claim for the wing.
I think we could use him upfront.
Problem he not that okay for too much touched in opposition box.

Was scoring goals a problem for us last season? I don't think so.

GrammarNazi1:
In his latest message regarding the killing of some Nigerian soliders in Aba or so, Peter Obi may be so sympathetic to the terrorist IPOB he could not call it a terrorist group.

How many politicians that commented on the attack said it's IPOB? I'll like you to post any screenshots.

How can one tag it when no investigations have been done and when the said IPOB have publicly denied being behind the attack?

But everyone just wants to trend because it's easy to trend using Peter Obi's name.

Raskimonojendor:
He is not making sense.

On the 30th of May, IPOB killed 5 soldiers of which 4 are ibos. Those Ibo soldiers were obviously deployed to the South, and they are not from the North.

The Ibo soldier kidnapped by IPOB a few years ago has not being found till date. She was kidnapped right there in the SE.

The Ibo soldier and her soldier fiancee were kidnapped and beheaded by IPOB right there in the SE.

We could go on and on.

He didn't say he supports IPOB. He said the FG treats Boko Haram like they are not a Terrorist group which should be a concern for all soldiers and indeed all Nigerians. It is a fact that BH members were adopted in the NA.

Jodera:
Hmmmm...
We need to hear Arteta's version too cos I can't believe he would be this inhumane especially knowing how Auba really helped him.

Also, Auba is a big influence in the dressing room and it might obviously cause division amongst the players if they see that he's inhumanly treated but the way they carried on suggests otherwise.

Omorr...

To what need?

Already Auba exposed his nonchalance in his report. If he needed to move his mother he doesn't need to do so by himself. If he wanted to do so by himself then he should do so within the time frame allowed.

I have staff working under me and they come up with excuses like I want to take my mother to hospital. When I ask them ...

1. are you the only child? No.
2. What of your younger ones. They are at home.
3. who will pay the bill. Me.

I say maybe I should sack you so you can have all the time to look at your mother and let your younger ones pay the bill.

What Auba did was irresponsible and it was just the last straw. He has been returning late to training several times so using this as his excuse won't work.

larride:
The power is in the hand of the lawmakers and the North has an overwhelming advantage.

They think they are at a disadvantage because their political leaders are very lazy and visionless. (Its not as if the southern one are any better anyways).

The north will only use their advantage to block anything that will lead to national progress. I'd rather they use it to develop their region too. Despite their advantage they are still the worst in all Human Development Indices.

larride:
Even if we are going back to regional govt, there will still be a form of representation of the people called Parliament. The people must have local leaders to represent them.

But your idea makes sense

He said state assembly

Democracy is for those who are in government according to HOR Speaker

airmark:
How you guys hurriedly jump into conclusion, is shocking.

Was I for PDP when I strongly condemned the handling of Endsars by Sanwoolu and Buhari?

So because I am against that packaged scam, Obi, it means I belong to Apc, right?

This is Obainojazz below, when I was defending the right course - condemning Buhari's action back then. But now, the same Obainojazz is behaving like those Buhari's supporters, as Obi supporter now.

Most Nigerians are self-centered and tribalistic and you guys have shown it in this section.

Is Peter Obi the president?

If you are comparing anyone to Buhari's supporters, it's those who are supporting Tinubu today despite all the hardship and poor policies.

Theflint1:
If it's regional it'd probably be 6, but I want devolution down to the state level, with LGA autonomy existing even at the state level.

Agreed totally.

Why is this so difficult?

If it's to pass nonsense bill NASS will do it within a week. Useless idiots 🥶

sod09:
Have always wanted everyman for himself
Let's have 4 major rulers, each state governors will be under them while emilokan remains the overall head
Disband all these useless ministers and house of reps, the governors will take over their positions
Disband senate president, vice president they are all useless
President
Regional rulers(North, South ,East ,West)
Governors

That's all everyone will sit up, no more miss management of funds

I support. It will lead to healthy competitions, less tribalism and less political crisis. If Tinubu does this I will forgive all his sins.

LordAdam16:
If the Nakba had not happened, you would not need to justify the killings of 35,000 innocent women and children.
True or false?

Who cried then and who is crying now? Same people.

Let Israel breath. Two state solution is the best. Take Gaza. Leave Jerusalem for the owners. Simple. But religious and fake ethnic Arabs won't accept and so they pay with their lives.

Have you asked yourself why Saudi Arabia is not supporting Palestine?

In as much as the humanitarian crisis is a concern, yet evil and terrorism must be punished.

You and other Palestine sympatizers using the humanitarian crisis to push your agenda can use your influence to ask Hamas to simply surrender and let the innocent people live peacefully.

LordAdam16:
The bolded is all that matters.
We'll get into reparations and morbid comparisons when Palestine is free.

Do you know how many civilians were killed in the 20-year Afghanistan War?
47,000. Inclusive of all the civilian killings by both sides.
Israel has killed 35K in less than a year.

Do you think the civilian casualty in the Afghanistan War would be that comparatively low if it had occurred before the establishment of the UN?
Any American on this board who knows anyone who fought in the war will be able to corroborate the stern, strenuous rules of engagement servicemen had to abide by. And the very real and career-upending consequences when you flouted them.

The entire world huddled together and swore never to allow a Dresden or Tokyo happen again. And collectively set up institutions and mechanisms to prevent a repeat.
But now that a certain protected class has decided to roll back the clock, you expect everyone to act like the Three Wise Monkeys.

In my submission that got deleted, I shared a harrowing account of the Israeli systemic, premeditated murder of 6-year old Hind, her 6 other family members, and the 2 EMTs sent to rescue her. Look up the Killing of Hind Rajab.
You cannot read that without wanting to put a fist through a wall. And that's not the most egregious atrocity committed by the apartheid regime. Nor the most recent. Since then, we've learned about the Lavender AI, we've born witness to the Al-Shifa massacre, the murder of the WCW Kitchen workers. And last week I had to watch a father cradle the beheaded body of his kid while a raging fire was burning others alive.
And then some psychopath tries to callously spin all that as "human shields".
It drives me up the wall.

If you want to wait until Israel racks up WW2 numbers before you object to the carnage, that's on you.
But you cannot expect the rest of us to go right along with it and be complicit in a 75-year old occupation that has killed more children in four months than all ongoing conflicts combined in 4 years.
That's the yardstick that triggers the ferocious denouncement by people who still have their humanity intact.
But sure, let's compare to a period when blacks were still segregated in the US and the Japanese were raping their way through Nanjing.
Why stop there? We might as well compare to the Armenian Genocide and the Genghis Khan extermination campaigns.

If October 7 did not happen you wouldn't need to write this epistle. True or false?

larride:
The Federal High Court is Superior to State High Court.

Really?

I don't think so.

There are matters reserved for both courts. For example FHC has no business with civil matters like customs, divorce, land or tenancy issues. Those are for state. Federal is meant for constitutional matters. However they have the same level of powers as per their tier.

Roland17:
This muddles it up even more. If FHC is the same, with the same power to adjudicate over the matter, why are we filing and hearing the same case in 2 different states with what would most likely be 2 different judgements over the same matter? The Supreme Court will ultimately decide this, it looks but it is such a mess to have it this way. At this point we have rendered our State courts useless.

Two courts with concurrent powers should not sit in the same matter and give conflicting orders. This is where the NJC comes in. It is judicial rascality for anyone to approach a court for an order when the matter is already before another court except it is a lower court. Such actions should be punished. We lost are judicial system when APC took power. Government began disobeying court orders without any form of consequence. Buhari most especially should be answering for this.

I knew this anthem like 30yrs ago

Very easy

Nigeria we hail thee
Our own dear native land
Though tribe and tongue may differ
In brotherhood we stand
Nigerians all are proud to serve
Our sovereign motherland

Ebin pa wa o 😭😭😭😭

Raumdeuter I am choosing you to be the one that will teach me the new abi na old national anthem. It should please you because it will be counted as one of the achievements of BAT.

BlueRayDick:
My fear is someone like Liman can find his way to Appeal Court. If that happens, he will just be selling Senate and House of Reps judgment to the highest bidder (You know appeal court is the final court for House assembly election matters)

If there is any shame left in NJC that man should have been expelled from the judiciary. But politicians will love such a character until they are able to dispense him after using him.

OmotolaDeniro:
Tinubu is obviously confused and then. He keeps on saying same thing everyday

Prove to us that you actually supported him. Links? Quotes?

Them supposed lock this Kano Federal High Court Judge for cell throway the key . The man is one of the bad eggs in the judiciary

This Liman is the same Kano high court judge?

Well, the oga kpatakpata of the judicial thieves is the CJN. And Tinubu is his benefactor. Chop bribe, pass judgement, clean mouth. Our judiciary is gone.

I think you should go through EBL'S thread on Twitter. You will see the tactical changes and positioning there.

Who the f*CK is EBL?

mostob:
And I told you false 9 is just a position, a skillsets or even tactic on the field and can be played by either a striker or a midfielder. It has nothing to do with the player himself. Jesus can play as a false 9 as well as a Striker same thing with Havertz. Kane is another example too.

It all depends on how the team is set up. Havertz can play false 9 for us but can never play false 9 for Liverpool (with Mane and Salah). That's because he will enroach the space that should be occupied by Mane and Salah.

The bolded does not make rational thinking. If a midfielder is playing as a striker you can call him false. If a striker is playing as a striker he cannot be said to be false again.

False 9 is a tactical approach but it is not a position. The position is no 9. What makes it false is whether the person playing there is really a no 9 or not.

Kane is a striker, if he drops deeper it does not change the fact that he is a striker. So you cannot call him false striker simply because he dropped deep. Bruno is an AM. When he is in the no 9 position we know that it is tactical and that he is false.

That a striker dropped deep simply does not make him false. Players move away from their positions all the time. Wingers drop deep to assist the fullback in defense. That does not make them false. But when you have a fullbacks playing on the forward flank, we call them false winger or wingback.

If you are reading this, may your future shine brighter than you ever imagined.
