don't get me wrong, Bruce was great but he only did it for about two seasons before retiring. I picked Neville for his longevity and general consistency and his ability to change his game to keep up with the ever changing premiership (probably past-it now sha).

Xavi is probably the best player in the world at this time. but he will never get the accolades he deserves.

Ronaldo *hiss*.

he scored 31 goals in the premiership. which is not the record. fyi, its 34 goals in a season from shearer/cole. it's also a single season performance. let him do it for 3 more years before we include him in the same breath as others.

you can't say there was a best player ever as there are many positions. like shearer for instance scored a crapload of goals but does that make him a better player than paul mcgrath or roy keane who are amongst the best in their positions?

you should do it by positions.

My top 5 in each position

Goal
Schmeichel
Seaman
Cech
Friedel
James

Defence
Adams
McGrath
Stam
Ferdinand
G. Neville *no one else stands out

Wingers

McManaman/Ginola (tie)

Midfielders
Vieira
Keane
Scholes
Lampard
Gerrard

Fantasistas/Trequartistas (Number 10's)
Bergkamp
Zola
Cantona
Sheringham
Le Tissier (he could be in the Strikers list as well)

Strikers
Henry
Shearer
Van Nistelrooy
Cole
Ferdinand/Yorke *tie Ian Wright just misses out.

I know people will probably disagree, but i think this takes history into account.

messi afraid of ronaldo hahahaha

when the two met, i didn't see ronaldo, but i did see messi torture the massed ranks of red shirts time after time over 1 1/2 legs.

Thanks for identifying the guy's gaffe jare. That was how somebody was also telling me Zola and Mutu played together in Chelsea!!!
I'm not very versed in football analysis, started watching FB less than 15 years ago, but I recognize 'quack' analysts

didn't zola and mutu play together. i thought zola had one season in the abramovich era.

it depends on the guy, but ask yourself if you spend too much time with a guy, he can become smothered.  

he needs to feel free, do stuff on his own.  if your man has opportunity to do stuff with his friends, whereby you don't call him and let him be so it doesn't feel like you're keeping tabson him.  like if he's like im going drinking with my friends, don't call him or call him when you know the pub would have closed?

if you and him give each other some space, and he says you're smothering him, then its just an excuse for him to end things and itsd not your fault.  

summary:  the important thing is space

if i ever become a serial rapist with a propensity for policewomen, this video is the reason why.


on a serious note, there's no excuse for cheating.  if you're going to be a player at least be up front about it. 

oh and women do get turned on, they just have more self-respect about it.

I haven't read the entire thread but I have to say that Women are crazy.  But not for the reasons you mentioned.  In my opinion those reasons are not unique only to women but to anyone who has been the 'endee' in a relationship.   Any guy who has been dumped without closure will probably do something crazy or at least feel like to doing something crazy.  the fact is that most guys will keep their feelings hidden, because it is the manly thing to do, so they will do big guy and not freak out or try to get closure or whatever, but guess who suffers, the next gf.  and if you have to get them on a couch with a therapist talking candidly then you will see all the unresolved relationship neuroses men have.  

anyway sha. i assume women are crazy, just because you mostly are.  

here are some examples of your 'insanity'.  
-you are attracted to guys who are a bit arseholish.  nice guys are fun to keep around, you can have nice conversations with them, but you dont see them as man enough for you.  so you hook up with the assholes.  and then whine to the nice guys about your bfs acting like assholes.  its not logical, but thats the way it is.  

-you are upset about something that a guy has done.  but instead of confronting the guy, you sulk for 3 days.  

-you are upset about something, and when the guy offers to help, you get upset.  turns out, and i learned this from a girl who was reading that venus/mars book, that you don't actually want help. you want someone to sit with you in your funk basically.  

-(ok this one was from a girl who was just plain insane anyway) you hold grudges against us over things that happened in your dreams.  this one girl dreamt my friend was cheating on her with her best friend and didnt talk to him for their whole weekend away.  finally in the car on the way back home, she blurts out that she "knows what he's up to with that slut." despite the fact that my friend and her best friend have never really got on.  

to be fair, maybe crazy is a bit strong, but you cant deny that your behaviour is often clearly illogical.  that said, i guess that's why we can't live without you  

just think, if your mother had been a little more accurate with that coat hanger 15 years ago (because i dont think any adult could be this dumb) i would not be wasting my time here.

you need to stop lying and you need to step away from the internet, or go and learn how to read before coming back on here as once again you have managed to show your lack of basic reading comprehension.

i would rather pack shit in london than be you. PS. over here they have toilets and shit (i thought you 'travelled in and out' if you did, you'd know that there was no need for a shit packer over here).

i would also rather die of aids than be you, you fucking abortion.

i just read that you said you speak english better than me. jesus wept! i give up. you are clearly delusional so i will leave you to your own devices.

also thanks for exposing yourself to be the useless and no doubt ugly, BO having parasite that you are. you are a disgrace to women everywhere. i hope they catch you and rip out your ovaries.

@spurted (can you read, its sup[b]r[/b]ted
you are dumb just because you live in "yoookay" doesnt mean you know shit. oooh inferiority complex, i have no more time to waste on someone who thinks that a persons worth is based on where they live. if that was true, you would probably be based in somalia or zimbabwe or some other failed state as you are a failure of a human

abgalaka cannot just recruit people to take part in a drug trial without the permission of the government because if he did and something goes wrong he could be sued and charged with murder you stupid prick.you clearly want my prick, but sorry i'm not that desperate and you're not that lucky. furthermore, you slowpoke (coming down to your level now) you show marked ignorance on how clinical trials work. you don't just wake up and go and do a clinical trial, you sign a document that one specifies your renumeration and that you won't sue them if there are any side effects

i guess your rubish filtter has broken down since the very first day you set it up or maybe your level of litteracy has not reached that needed to set up a real rubish filter. the irony of someone calling me an illiterate when they can't even spell 'literacy'

once again abgalaka cannot just pick up people to test his drugs they are sick people looking for cure you peanut brain not every one is like you who ask for money before sending his child to school.Now reply again and let me have a window through which i can see your shallow mind.go back and install another filter that will help you put all those comma and paraghraph because here on naira land lots of people use symbols or cut the words they intend to use short and not every one uses comma and paragraphcos it seems to me that your broken down filter will end up not signing you into naira land.you are correcting me right maybe you should ask yourself who in his right mind who thinks he writes better than others uses doted i's mid sentence when reffering to himself.you stupid prostitute importer go get a decent job.physician heal thine self first. english, do you speak it, motherfukka?

you stupid prostitute importer do i look like your father? don't take out your anger at him on nairalanders. and maybe if you imported prostitutes you wouldn't be a parasite on your boyfriend, at least i've never begged anybody for money to buy credit.
and

Guys I will like to add my 2 cents to this and here it goes,
a wise person says that"In theory theory and practice are the same but in practice, practical and thory are worlds apart" what is my point:
in theory, Spain is a great place to live for a black person because it is sunnier, but then if sun is the only reason you want to live in Spain why not stay in Nigeria and have it double
in theory Switzerland is beautiful and has the best banks in the world but then in practice you have to have a good living for good banks and nice environment to make sense to you,
why am I saying this? well to be honest there are only 3 places to live for Nigerians, Nigeria , US and UK . in that order every other place "na manage" and that is coming from someone who has lived in Europe for 10 years.
officially there are 3 million Nigerians in the UK but the actual figure is likely to be up to 15 million why do you think that is?. most Nigerians in UK have very nice jobs, Doctors, lawyers,Engineer(I am one) ,nurses, e.t.c,most drive very nice cars, own multiple homes and believe me if you live in a few UK cities you always have Nigerians around you or within 1 hour drive. in 10 years I have never been asked for my "papers" even once on the street and I don't know who has.
the UK government has had to close 2 camps set up by thousands of immigrants trying to "escape" from France to UK in Calais. some hide under the train and die just to escape from France to London, why do you think that is?, so why compare France to UK?
Germany? forget, I only know one person who has a reasonable job in Germany. every other person is just trying so many other things, and believe me 90% of those who "attain" German citizenship end up in UK. thats why UK never joined the common border. I even know people who have white Germans mothers or father and yet they are discriminated against because they have half black blood, they had to move to UK .
Switzerland? if you want to live there you better bring your money because you just can't get a decent job there
Spain? how many Spanish are cleaners in UK?
need I say more?
but then what do I know? like someone on this site would say
enjoy

a few points from this.

1. i dont care if i go to a place where i never see another nigerian again. if i wanted to hang around nigerians all the time, there's a place for that, it's called Nigeria.

2. i beg to differ about switzerland. the only reason i am in England is because I am not fluent enough in any of their languages to get a decent job. if you speak fluent german, french or italian the world is your oyster. also it is easier to get a job from being a student than it was here until they did that IGS thing, and even then, my friend has spent the last six months in London looking for work.

3. those cleaners are latin american not spanish.

again sha, a lot of people have different experiences. just because i've never been hassled in a swiss airport doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

also stillwater, boys of summer is good. but i like in this diary better. that song just makes you nostalgic for youth.

read this entire thread. awesome,

anybody like irish punk rock, like flogging molly? or dropkick murphy's? i also like gypsy rock like gogol bordello.

and i'm surprised i've seen no love for bloc party on here given that their lead singer is naija-born.

oh and i just want to clarify something.

kurt cobain shot himself but there are people who say that courtney love did it and made it look like a suicide, mostly because the suicide weapon was a shotgun, and he was wearing shoes.

not picking on you anglobabe but you listed the most countries so i'll use yours.

The best countries in europe are

1.Norway---- lovely ,people are nice,great benefit from the Govt but cold---second langauge is English

2.Denmark , lovely but cold----second langauge is English danes are a bit racist

3.Spain---- the weather is great ,the people are nice and Costa del Sol is the best place to live for me. maybe cos of the costa del sol which is a tourist area that the people were nice but those people are the most racist in europe and they don't even speak second languages

4.Sweden--- lovely but cold, second langauge is English this is the best country in europe, i would seriously not mind living here, i actually don't mind the cold

5.Switzerland- lovely and the people are nice and friendly ----second langauge is English wrong, there is no second language, each region has it's own strong language. in large cities like zurich and geneva (esp) though, you might find some people who can speak english, but its certainly not a given. PS. the swiss are extremely racist as well, and it is the hardest country to naturalise into in europe, the whole canton or whatever takes a vote on your eligibility, imagine if you've annoyed somebody before

6. France - i like the southern part eg. Nice ,Villefranche and paris

7.) Italy- its ok but i only like Florence and Rome

8.) Malta - is interesting alot of history,nice weather and the people are friendly-- second langauge is English

9.) Portugal--- is lovely but they are racist and no jobs but i like the Algarve, english is spoken there i thought the portuguese were strict but they were actually far nicer than the spanish and english is spoken far widely especially in lisbon and the algarve

10.) Monaco --- its ok but too small and very strict

11.) UK --- accomodating but too much taxe and expensive overrated but people pick it because of the language

12.) Ireland --- is great so far nice place

13.) Germany--- is nice but racist a stereotype, they are not as bad as the french, spanish, italians or swiss

14.) Holland is great and welcoming.

spurted
I belieeve you don't know how to read and comprehend duh. I clearly stated in my text (that is if you have been smart enough to read all my post before hitting your key booard)that people who get the drugs have to voluntier and not just randomly picked because they have HIV.don't you know tthat PLWA also have the right to proper medical treatment anfd life?the fact that they are living with HIV/AIDS doesnt mean that they should be used as guinea pigs the fact that a person is living with aids doesnt mean that they should be killed or administered drugs that could cause them harm when its efficacy has not been proven you stupid.
It beats me when people just think they know it all.The point I am making is not that agbalaka has the cure all I just said people who do research most of the time sollicit for funds from people and other NGO's for example Cancer and premature deliveries.Have you heard about march of dimes?go google it up they openly ask people to donate and support research to prevent premature labour and birth.Its only in nigeria stingy people like you who want to chop alone and not help the cause complain when asked to contribute money.

i can read, i just have a bullshit filter set in. i can barely see your posts. but i do know that you never have mentioned volunteers before this post so you are a liar as well as an idiot.

secondly, its suprted.

thirdly, you most definately clearly didn't read my post. where in my post did i say that Abalaka's research should not be funded? you can also test on the samples last i checked. and if people volunteer, which lets face it, if i had aids and there was a potential cure, i'd be willing to do (all those experimental drugs for e.g. heart disease, you think they just worked by magic or you think people didn't sign up for clinical trials and studies) then its not so bad, again its not like he's going kidnapping people to experiment on. if he got the funding, he could even pay them for their time.

so let me get this, the cure for the greatest scourge of our time, something that if we had the cure for, we'd become international players, something that if a drug company got the patent for, their stock would go through the roof and no one is interested? the guy can't get funding? the guy has no one to blame but himself. you can't compare him to March of Dimes (not even sure why you brought this up) as March of Dimes has previous and is an organisation and this guy is a charlatan from parts unknown.

finally, i would probably take what you said more seriously if you used punctuation and paragraphs. because your posts are the internet equivalent of those drunk tramps yelling and wandering around outside most train stations in europe.

[/quote][quote author=stillwater link=topic=188339.msg3121041#msg3121041 date=1227320904]I would echo that too. Yeah right!!!!

i saw this and i was tempted to respond but my post was epic enough as it was.

if it was so free, i would have been able to do chem and physics (which i was somewhat interested in) with govt instead of doing economics and commerce (which i wasnt).

exbogus sports management is when you manage sportsmen, like as an agent.

it might be useful, in the sense of case studies. like how some of the well known agencies (in not just sports but also entertainment) operate maybe also some type of behavioural science since you're dealing with people. apart from that, don't know what research you could use.

we should talk about our fart confessions.

my worst moment was when i need to drop a little bomb. i went walking and thank you Jesus, the whole corridor was emprty. I let one out, living a little shake with relief, it was so liberating. I then caught a whiff. 'Shit, I said,' better leave the scene of this crime. I'm walking off into the distance like a hero. unfortunately, i walk past this girl, cue me praying like mad like the smell has dissipated. It hadn't, it had basically formed an invisible wall which the girl walked into like a crash test dummy. 'Suprted!!!,' she shrieked in a strangled voice with a look somewhere between disgust and horror on her face.

*passes mic to next person*

@ hannydarl, why can't he test the drug on anyone's kinsmen if they have aids? not to mention the fact that its not like he's going around killing people, most people volunteer. and surely, they could simply take samples from people and apply the substance to said sample and see whether it reduces the viral load.

i smell bullshit here. and most nigerians are gullible. just like how people believed in that head without the body around 13 years ago. the influence Nigeria would have worldwide if they had a cure, and the amounts of money we could make (and said govt officials could chop) just by selling or leasing the patent for it is out of this world.

thirdly, even if the nigerian govt blocked his research, you do know that if it is viable, other countries would have broken their backs to take him.

ugh. such stupidity.


on a final note, this new development is good, but would be very expensive, dangerous and the amount of people who carry the genetic immunity worldwide and then match the patient will be very small. not to mention that extracting marrow is bloody painful and i cant see most people donating it to a perfect stranger.

why the hell not? whatever floats your boat.

phew, i was thinking of coming to redeemed in London but i'm glad I haven't gotten round to it. stopping me from getting out of the church? what is this, a church or a prison? seriously, sometimes i dont want to say it, but its like a thin line between all these crazy cults that commit mass suicide and pentecostal churches.

why I was even considering it, only God knows, when my attendance of a parish (that is pretty close with the london parish) back home is responsible for me almost losing my faith. i've seen far too many people from my parish at home, with their 'im here to front, look at my clothes am i not so much better than you' mentalitiies, at jesus house to want to have anything to do with them.

i'm not a fan of having outsiders attempting to control every aspect of your life. '

PS. @ poster. your salvation is most important but you've already taken care of that. so next its your studies, as this is pretty much your only real responsibility. everything else is story. be wise. love God but please don't drink the kool-aid.

i would marry a single parent, what's the big deal.

obviously, you have to keep your eyes open and see the lay of the land. but it's not a deal breaker.
