There was nothing like propaganda. The world mounted pressure on Putin and warned him of deadly consequences. He knows he can't fight the world.

He has no choice than pull back. That is if he doesn't still attack in his usual stubbornness

You mean the whole world will go to war because of a freezing wasteland in Ukraine?

Seriously?

You do realize every country has their shit to deal with right now.

Even Germany who is the biggest EU member and France to some extent had shown sign of not joining any war for Ukraine and have always insisted on dialogue. And these are the big guys in NATO that vetoed that Ukraine should not be admitted after they applied, because they don't want a conflict with Russia in Europe

jstan360:
The door is still very much open for Ukraine to join NATO if they so wish...the US keeps stressing that every nation has the right to choose its own path - that's freedom, that's democracy

Tell that to Cuba. Afterall they had the freedom to choose their own path by aligning with the soviets, but it will threaten the security of USA , hence USA almost invaded them without giving them freedom of choice

ALLNIGERIANSMAD:
forget, Russia know what awaits them so dey decide to run

Lol. If the west felt Russia was insignificant and would be crushed, I'm sure they would have admitted Ukraine to NATO by now. SMH

timbros:
The same Ferdinand wey dey buzz say make dem give Ole blank cheque and contract paper make him write how much and how many years contract wey him want, after he went 11 games unbeaten streak for him interim regime?

Normally, Ferdinand has an empty skull.

Same as Majority of Man UTD legends that are currently into punditry.
The TV stations are only making money from them and pay them because of their faces and popularity and not because they necessarily have anything in their head or have something sensible to say.

afrodoc2:
Was that his point? Did he say he was a bad player?

He said they chased him for 50m and you are now comparing him to McTominay.

The fee is the point he was trying to make not whether he is better than any specific player?

For the record, Longstaff is not better than Mctominay, despite the fact that Mctominay is still shit.

Now imagine buying Someone that isn't better than your academy product for 50m. That is how ridiculous Ole's transfers were in 2019.
The same way they bought Wan Bissaka for 50m and a lot of us knew from the onset that he's an offensive liability who isn't better than Dalot or some of the fullbacks in the U23

jyz200:
Omo I just read it up now thanks
But Ukraine needs the help of USA because of some of its cities annex by Russia

The only City Russia annexed in Ukraine is Crimea. And those ones already legally did Referendum before that to join Russia. Ukraine just refused to let them go and Russia took it by force in 2014.

13large:
Senegal got a world class GK, defender, midfielder and forward. If dem no reach World Cup QF

I won't be surprised if they don't even make it out of their world cup group.

African countries usually suffer from some kind of mental block during world cups, despite the fact that they have the quality to battle it out with the Europeans and south Americans in Quarter final and semifinals .

afrodoc2:
Still suspended pending the outcome of the police investigations. I have read that his contract stipulates the maximum duration of suspension as 2 weeks but United are going to find a way to extend the suspension until further notice.

Unless he is completely exonerated he is looking at either worst case scenario of jail time or best case scenario of his contract being voided and moving abroad to start afresh.

Either way if he is not completely exonerated he has probably played his last game as a United player. However what he is fighting for right now is his freedom cos jail time is a real possibility.

Jail time if he's convicted of rape.

But for normal assault, I don't think he'll get jail time for that. He'll get suspended sentence or at least a fine, since he's a first time offender.

The Rape case is his main issue

raumdeuter:
Salah should demand to be EPL highest paid since he is the best player in the League

Simple and straightforward

Anything short of that, then His agent and/or Liverpool will be doing him a great disservice.

And if Salah is to compromise his demands, they should at least upgrade him to the wages the likes of De Gea, De Bruyne and so on collects, (300k minimum)

eph12:
Dalot with the world class crosses again today. I'm shaking

The truth is that we need a RB.

Wan Bissaka and Dalot ain't it.

elampiro:
This coach's style puts us at par with small teams.

Not true. The team just can't keep up the intensity that the coach's system requires for 90 minutes.

They usually has out after 60 minutes Max.
Well, they've played drab football for 3 years, so their lungs aren't used to playing high intensity football for 90 minutes just yet

Also adding the odd individual errors from some of our useless players as well, which has been plaguing the team even under Solskjaer.

elampiro:
It looks like Ghegen manager is not playing to the favour of Ronaldo, Cavani and Bruno. Goals are now more likely to come from other team members.

His current tactics is good in the long run. He's making the team play more as a team. The present predicament we are facing now is just conversion and some key players refusing to make the right decisions at the right moments for easy goals.

Judolisco:
most goalie @33 are JST starting their career

True. Sir Alex Ferguson brought in Van Der Sar to Man Utd at the age of 35. And my guy win everything at Man Utd.

GloryIsaac:
Mane’s mental strength is unmatched.

And that is how you know winners.

Some players would have been sulking up after that penalty miss, thereby resulting into them playing nonsense, but Mane remained focus and carried on like nothing happened

Mujtahida:
The Senegal coach has been there for 8 years

To be fair he deserved to be there for more years.

His team have been on an Upward trajectory right from they 1st day and hasn't shown any sign of decline.

FIFA ranking is the best metric to determine that and they've been climbing without dropping for the past 3 years.

With this AFCON win , they will enter top 15 in the next ranking, cos they were already in 20 before.

Expert17:
Mendy GK of the tournament

Pooling booth.

Burkina Faso and Egypt GKs were miles ahead.

Mendy even missed the first 2 games.

Popularity contest award.

Mane was far from being the best player of the tournament. Vincent Aboubakar deserves it more

Odunayaw:
Oh my

Russia with a vibrant football industry still spent $14bn in prep for WC.
Cameroon lacking even basic transport infrastructure, having only 3 WC approvable stadiums etc etc will spend more.

Baba just rest the matter

Are you minding my guy

Cameroon President who has access to the financial state of the country won't spit that kind of thing about them hosting a world cup

Na ment?

Danielnino00:
Lol.. Bro....

Cameroon is just slightly ahead of Nigeria when it comes to stuffs like human capital development... They have Boko Haram and secessionists oo.. They also have Paul Biya ..
Forget sentiments, South Africa is the only sub Saharan African countries that has the capacity to host the world cup...

Cameroon is not above Nigeria by any metric. Calm down boss.

minfelix:
You ask if a whole Cameroon has such money to spend, why won't they have?
SA didn't jus provide the $4bn in a day na, it took them years to prepare for 2010 WC..

Bros , it's $4 billion o not $4 million.

Where Cameroon wan see am?

Comparing SA to Cameroon is somehow sha because they are not in the same category when it comes to finances.

Well, except they take a lot of loan sha.

charlesemeka85:
why u Dey vex for Egypt like this like say na dem comot us?

Atleast dem reach final with their boring football

Like a lot of us said, they just got lucky. With the type of performance they had in this AFCON, the highest they should have gotten was R of 16. But we all know that Life is not always fair.

TheGoodJoe:
My heart goes to Carlos Queiroz. For a coach born in Africa, it would have been nice for him to win it. However, with the talk celebrating poor performances, they had to lose.

At least, ElNeny will chill.

PRIDE COMES BEFORE A FALL.

They were very poor in this tourney. Egypt was just another Tunisia in this tourney with more luck.

Very poor team. Even Greece that won EUro I. 2004 as an underdog wasn't even this poor.

Thank goodness Senegal won.

I would have hate it if Egypt had suceeded in shithousing their way to an AFCON win. That useless team did not improve since Match day 1, they just got lucky with a better goalkeeper after their first choice got injured.

Kilishihunter:
That Egypt keeper na winsh, Him hand just be like magnet, Chai

The goalkeeper is currently on a confidence drug, hence he's overperforming.

Normally , he's a poor goalkeeper. The fact that he's being benched by El shanawy who is not that spectacular, says a lot.

❣️♥️❤️

Good evening.

Please, I'm a final year student at University of Ibadan. I'm in need of any laptop that might not be useful to the previous owner for my Project writing in school.
I'll be grateful if anyone could help me. I'm presently not in the best financial state.

My phone number is 08138624587 for verification.

hensben:
na cr7 happy pass say Greenwood get this problem.

If only Una know how good Greenwood is, he is old school kind of attacker, them RVP, Rivaldo kind of player.

Chai but Man Utd board bleeped up with that Ronaldo buy.

This season was supposed to be Greenwood's season with him and Cavani rotating the CF position since We already bought a RW in Sancho, as well as buying a DM to help the title charge.

Well

pahars:
What this nations cup as shown is that to win a major competition you need atleast one class player in your team. Mane and Salah have not been that spectacular in this competition but they have been very crucial at vital moments for their team(with goals and assists). Nigeria lack such star figures, that's why we will struggle to win major tournaments.

LoL

I beg to differ.

In cup competitions, you need a lot of luck as well. Infact, after playing good football, luck is the next best thing you need in cup competitions because it's not like league , where you can always remedy the situation with other games.

Remember, Senegal could have easily been chilling at home with Algeria after the group stage, no thanks to the last minute penalty in their first group game. It's a fact that they were really poor in that group stage, and could have easily been sent packing, if not for mother luck

afrodoc2:
Yeah that is one point i also raised earlier. The Glazers will not waste time in dumping him to avid social and financial backlash. The other thing is the dysfunction in the club would be worse if he gets to share the same dressing room with team mates that dumped him like a bad habit when the going was tough for him.

This is relevant only if he is not in jail however. The police most likely allowed bail without charging him cos the girl has refused to co-operate with them, which makes the job much harder for the cops. What they will be trying to do right now is gather enough evidence with which they can charge him WITHOUT the girl's help.

@Your last sentence, The police will find it hard to do that part.

Their only chance of doing so is from the audio clip, but it seems it wasn't much of use because they have released him without any charge yet. They probably must have listened to the whole clip, and it seems not adequate Enough for conviction. Because from that audio, it was 15 minutes long and only a snipet of 50 seconds was posted online by the lady.

The 14 minutes of the remaining clip probably changed the contest of the the whole incident, during which the recording was made

afrodoc2:
Very dicey. The truth of life is that talent will grant you 2nd or 3rd chances that will not be afforded to other less gifted people. His major problem is with the criminal justice system. If by some miracle he escapes them he might still have a decent to good career but likely not at Man Utd if the reports of his team mates unfollowing him are true.

It is just a pure bloody mess and there are no winners to be found, just losers all around.

Man United is a publicly traded company, so PR matters to them, because of their share market movement. That's the only reason he won't play at the club again. He would probably move abroad after this, if he manage to scale through the mess.

Probably Italy

TrebleChamp:
What are we to believe bayi?
Guess with this report, Greenwood will be let off the hook. It remains to be seen how he picks himself up going forward. But the boy wayward sha....

what you are looking at is what I call "Operation PR clean up"

That's the first phase of the operation

Jokerman:
Lol.... look wetin De Gea tweet now...

"I love tenis"

Seems Greenwood don piss off many persons

The guy na loner. He doesn't have any particular friend or guys he rolls with in the team. Most of the friends he has on his Social media are majorly his academy guys.

Why do I have a feeling that the club as well as Southgate knew about this thing Prior to the reveal.

The photos posted were taken in May 2020. Around the period he stopped getting England call up despite playing better than those that were called up ahead of him.
And whenever the Press asked Southgate about him not getting call up, he always gives shitty reasons that are not football related
