I don't like when someone says I would like to sign this guy or see this kid let's sign him. It doesn't sit right with me cuz we literally have no opinion. Just follow what laporta does
Wow. So does your opinion about who Flick should play in the team matter? Or which formation he should employ? Does he get to hear and consider them, yet you still give your take on these matters.

Opining about who we buy or not is no different. That's what fans do.

The werey that left his car in the middle of an active track should take the blame jor...
He should actually be prosecuted for attempted murder because he didn't just leave his car on the race track, he actually drove into the path of the oncoming drag racer.

That said, the racer that collided with the id1ot had some time to react as he should have slowed down immediately he saw the interruption far in front, but he apparently didn't want to lose the race and was flashing lights instead.

I find it also really funny that he's begging for support. I mean you are rich enough to rent a N200million super car to race during an ebinpawa regime, you are now asking people to donate for your folly. What else did he expect as a reaction?

I have donated N100 to him and will send N50 by tomorrow.

Lewandowski don play 100 Barca games now now now 👀

100 games and 63 goals ?

Omo lewandowski sabi sha
Lewandowski's tally is not as bad as most Cules make it seem. It's just that it seems he now has a permanent place on the wrong side of the fans.

E go hard for him to turn that perception around.

Olmo is just elite in decision making. Great goal. Player wey no dey give hbp hit and miss moments.

Meanwhile my major headache is how Yamal can manage this level of success at an age he's still in high school. Flick just has to shadow coach this boy.

Foreign AffairsRe: Harris Mocked For Exaggerated Facial Expressions As Trump Spoke At Debate.... by ThierryJay: 5:57pm On Sep 11, 2024
OP this is propaganda at its worst.

All the major news outlets GLOBALLY gave Harris an outright win in yesterday's debate. Even several known republicans grudgingly agreed that she edged the debate. All of them agreed that the debate did Trump zero favours.

Do you realize that many undecided voters have now been swayed towards voting Harris? Taylor Swift's declaration for Harris after the debate is an example. Nobody really knew Harris' policies' stance prior to yesterday but after she came out good, she won over a number of neutrals.

YoshihideSuga:
FESTAC and Yaba nko?
These are the regular Mainland hustle and bustling areas. There are some cool estate spots in Festac though. Yaba's housing system is old and too tight yet relatively expensive. But Yaba is a better central location than Festac and is sometimes considered to be an extension of Surulere.

Gbagada any day any time. When we wanted to relocate, my husband checked all these places and finally chose Gbagada, and I never regretted it. Electricity, Band A(24/7), security topnotch, good road network. Being at the center gave it an upperhand to these other places you mentioned. The only cons are, some places don't have good water, also rent is too high now but it's a lovely place.

My second option is Ogudu GRA. You can also check it out
Ilupeju/Anthony is a nice place too
Magodo is the poshest/classiest of the three. Completely upscale and no mix with slums and also relatively the most secure. It is also the most expensive. Closest to Ikeja but farthest from the Island.

Gbagada also has very good housing estates but it's mixed with the rough and not so secure areas as well. Its central location with easy access to Ikeja and Island is a plus.

Surulere is the biggest by far and has a mix of the very good to the very bad. In terms of liveliness, it is the best but also the least secure. It's also the closest to the Island.

Ogudu GRA is also another very decent place to stay, but it's more like Gbagada in assessment.

Ikeja GRA, Omole phases 1 & 2 are other sweet posh and serene locations to live in Mainland Lagos.

Fans which is your best barca team among the four below? Andrewbaba44, awesome01, jpmoriarti, ijustwantto, obonujoker, oliverano
2008/2009
2009/2010
2010/2011
2014/2015
10/11 was the pinnacle. Flawless and unbeatable. 08/09 would have been a different story if not for Iniesta's last gasp strike in UCL SF. In 10/11 Barca avoided those kinds of dicey scenarios and killed games early from start to finish.

14/15 was already showing signs of vulnerability in the middle and defence but masked by brilliance of the front three.
SportsRe: Winning Euros With Portugal Is 'equivalent To A World Cup' - Cristiano Ronaldo by ThierryJay: 10:08am On Sep 07, 2024
Mr Delulu has started hallucinating again.

World cup winners also win their individual continental competitions, which means they conquered both home and abroad.

Yet you have Euro winners like Greece and Denmark who have never even smelt WC semifinal let alone winning. And you expect sane persons to believe the Euros is equivalent or even better than WC?

Well, who takes the opinion of a Youtuber serious anyways?

CareerRe: When We Say A Toilet Cleaner Abroad Is Better Than Bank Manager In Nigeria by ThierryJay: 3:32pm On Sep 03, 2024
Gerrard59:
cc: steeltrust

That's what I meant when I say the comparison is out of place. A bank manager in Nigeria is living fine and has a thriving career. It's an unbeatable experience which shouldn't be compared to a toilet cleaner in the abroad.

Yes, Nigeria has serious issues, but never should anyone say a toilet cleaner in the abroad lives a better life than a bank manager in Nigeria.

Ah! Let's fear God, please.
Totally agree.

Digressing a bit from the line of argument, the pressures a BM or other top professionals face in Nigeria is different from that of a Janitor abroad.

BM in 9ja for example faces immense pressure to deliver on business targets. Janitor abroad on the other hand faces pressure from physical work stress to keep up/improve status and living conditions by working several jobs/long hours.

Which of these contexts do you think creates greater pressure and therefore worse mental health?

Kudos to Laporta. This is how a club management should engage its fans. Honest, down-to-earth and transparent communication. It makes fans to relate better with the vision they are working towards and to be patient during rough times.

Meanwhile, Bartomeu go just dey engage PR mercenaries up and down to be dishing out lamba everywhere.

CareerRe: When We Say A Toilet Cleaner Abroad Is Better Than Bank Manager In Nigeria by ThierryJay:
Looks like a number of Nigerians who japa'd are still ignorant about certain issues. It appears they project their own experiences of poverty while in Nigeria to every other situation here in Nigeria.

Make no mistake, an average Tier 1 & 2 bank Manager/branch head here earns total emolument of not less than N2-2.5million net per month (bonuses inclusive).

With that amount, a BM in Nigeria can:

- afford to build a good house after a couple of years
- has access to loan facilities of up to a N100m which can fast-track significant capital projects
- buy a very good car. Most typically have 2 or 3 cars on average.
- travel abroad for vacation during summer, with or without family
- employ domestic staff that run errands, queue for fuel etc
- either live in a premium estate with almost 24hour electricity supply or afford or set up a solar inverter system that will guarantee all round energy supply
- afford to go out to fun places regularly
- have free access to premium HMO services for medical care that may cost even up to N2million at a sitting


So under no circumstances would you find an average sensible BM struggling to live a quality life in Nigeria.

The general macro issues that plague Nigeria affects everyone whether BM, toilet cleaner or even Government officials.

In addition, the self-esteem (not arrogance) that a BM will have from being at the top of his career, from being exposed and having valuable social capital is something that cant be quantified but typically exceeds the mental state and exposure of a Janitor abroad.

So capital No, an immigrant toilet cleaner abroad does not live a better life than a BM in Nigeria. But he definitely has better prospects to be something better than many other professionals in Nigeria.
