chiefololade: But my Uncle Yinka Quadri fits in every role... Even as old as he is

THIS ONE CORRECT DIE.

he dey act sharp guy, Bad guy, good Guy, Mumu guy in fact Alfa Babalawo you will see him there.

Unlike some Yoruba Actors that are only used to act one role and one role only.

adetopshot: Taiwo Hassan,mr nice guy...

I SWEAR
I HAVE NEVER EVER FOREVER SEEN THE GUY ACT OTHERWISE THROUGHOUT A FILM.

even if he starts out as with a slight misdemeanor he ends up as a Holier than though Husband, Father, Concubine and what have you.

Tomorrow again,

the Los Blancos family looks forward to a grea t match.

Lets hope
Ozil
CR
Dimaria
Alonso
and Higuain/Benzema comes to the party.

Johnpaul88: Mundo Deportivo has published
an article on its website in which
some of the problems of FC
Barcelona are highlighted with
possible solutions.
1. Problem: Messi is caged
and Ronaldo has too many
one on one chances. When Messi
was far away from the penalty
area, both AC Milan and Real
Madrid placed many players
around the attacking midfielder
position. That is why Messi
always had to deal with three or
four defenders. Ronaldo, on the
other hand, was allowed to play
his preferred game. He had 50
meters of space to run into and
only one defender to beat.
Solution: More movement in
attack and help in defence. If
Messi is being covered by three
defenders, then there are two
players who are unmarked. If
Barça’s players are moving well,
then this should be an
advantage. Regarding Ronaldo,
reviewing old videos will do
some good. In the past, if he
escaped from Alves or Puyol,
then Piqué was there to help.
2. Problem: FC Barecelona
concedes too many goals. Since
January the 10th, the team has
conceded in every game. The last
clean sheet was against Córdoba
in the Copa del Rey (5-0). So
far, the team has conceded in
twelve consecutive matches, a
total of 19 goals. This is a bad
habit that creates doubt.
Solution: Defend with the ball.
One of the trademarks of the
best Barça was to keep
possession to tire the opponent.
3. Problem: Less goals and
chances. Except for the 6-1 win
against Getafe, Barça has only
scored 7 goals in their last 6
games.
Solution: More players into the
penalty area and more shots on
goal. In the treble winning
season (Henry-Messi-Eto’o) and
in 2011 (Villa-Messi-Pedro), there
was danger from three attackers.
Both trios scored over a hundred
goals. Messi needs a partner
inside the box. Villa?
4. Problem: Growing
predictability. There are several
causes for this like lack of faith,
doubt after the defeat in San
Siro, current form, etc. The truth
is that Barça loses itself in
horizontal play.
Solution: Rhythm, movement and
surprise. These are the keys to a
faster passing game, and a
return to the team’s origins.
Trying something new can also
help, for example Villa playing in
front of Messi.
5. Problem: No pressure, too
much distance between the
attack and defence. Barça has
lost faith in recovering the ball.
The consequences of that
are large spaces between the
lines.
Solution: Restore solidarity. It is
essential to renew the
enthusiasm to recover the ball
immediately. This and a great
attack was something that
identified FC Barcelona in the
past. In conclusion, help is vital.

my own advise is that when everybody seems to expect somethinmg from you always.
you can fight back with the element of suprise.

meaning change tactics.

all the solutions above are what barca used to do before so it wont be hard to counter them

but becoming more vertical in play than ever expectedwill catch opponents unawares.

pass the message on to jordi/tito in the u.s

eyoniggar: ^^dip, the foul on pedro by alonso wasnt a penalty, go watch the replay again, pedro moved the ball ahead too fast and he tried to block alonso from following up,which ended up having alonso crash upon him. All I know is , there werent no serious wrong calls. We were as$s-beaten.

eyo,
you be very good correct guys jare.
no mind dipp and A.J.

Yes,

we won.
expected a draw though.

seems everybody in real now knows how to play the non-possession football against Barker.

BUt na wa, so Barca boys too fit vex and fiht like (using the cules word) "Agberos",lol.

lets see who La Masia would produce to breath fresh air into the squad.


and to all my Madridista fans

I hope he rests Ozil, Dimaria, Khedira, ronaldo and Alonso for the weekends classico.

he should just use the squad that played Osasuna.
and just tell them to park the bus well well
if you cant score try not to concede.

a draw would do for the weekend.

waiting for Man Utd

RuuDie: No. I do not think Pique's leg made contact with CR7's and if it did, it would have been the fleetest, faintest of touches...something like a fly tipping over an elephant

AjanleKoko: Th good thing is, I saw the game live. I was sitting one floor above the terrace, right behind the Barca goal.
Pique stretched out, made the clearance into touch, and Ronaldo dived for the pen. Almost zero contact. But it was in the box. Once you use your feet in the box, you are inviting a dive for a pen. But Pique had no choice cos the goalie was already stranded.

RuuDie: No. I do not think Pique's leg made contact with CR7's and if it did, it would have been the fleetest, faintest of touches...something like a fly tipping over an elephant

Walahi Talahi,

I am speechless. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAh for the above posts, abi una bi learner ni?

AjanleKoko: is all I can say.
But no shaking. It's always a great experience at the Camp Nou. The atmosphere, the fans singing y Porto-es es puto - e (Pidgin Catalan for 'All Portuguese are MotherF&%kers'), as well as screaming Puta Madrid! every time Real scored. Plus, seeing those boys play live is not comparable in any way to watching them on TV. So I still had a good time like I always do , even though my team lost.

To the rest of the cules, take heart jare. If you guys sound so sad, it means you were not supporting El Barca in 2006-2008, or 2000-2004. There were way more tears back in those days . At a point Barca did not even qualify for Europe.

I will save any analysis for sometime in March, after the CL rounds have been done and dusted. Till then, visca El Barca o jare. Na today?

@bolded,
its a real great experience.
so Catalans aka Cules are this vile.

the whole of Barkalunya no try at all for this behaviour. I dey shame sef.

AjanleKoko: Nice one from you lot.

Mourinho about to exit Spain winning his most favourite trophy - the Copa Del Rey. All of a sudden this seems to be the most important title in his career

i sense a feeling of "chai shey na barca dem disgrace yesterday" tone in this comment.

pele, no vex.
lets win the copa (hopefully) and enjoy its moments.

eyoniggar: Congrats Cable.

am I seeing clearly at all.

for the first time in the life of Nairaland, he calls me cable and not burntcable.

It seems that every team now adopts same pattern of playing against barca.

Leave the Gad damn ball for them and hit 'em on the counter(hopefully puyol plays for barca when you play them).

sadly they refuse to re-adapt their strategy

RuuDie: ....And I also feel that Madrid PK was quite soft. . .the way CR went down reminded me of FT's fall against J. Evans at the bridge. He already had his knees folded and I doubt if Pique even made any contact at all.

Shey na OGTV you watch the match.
na wa for you ooooo.

ddippset: Men I am so so pissed but thank God it wasn't a hiding. My 5-0 is still intact. They can have the copa I'l have la liga. But for now I need man u to do me a favour. Knock these basstardz out.

tales by moonlight

Johnpaul88: Madrid
You are not gonna outplay me !
You are not gonna outscore me !
Not under ma roof !

2nd leg Copa Del Rey El Classico comes up 9:00pm this night. You don't wanna miss that.

Kindly confirm the comments above.

If he is not given a trial no one would ever discover his true abilities.

Ramos was a RB before CB
Arbeloa was a RB before LB
Pepe was a CB before DM
and who believed varane could hold down this good.

he should be tried in that role more often IMHO

dietsono: its like u jst came across d word "Exceed" dat u can't even spell d word properly, at wat time did d ref called off d match? 6sec b4 time.....bad belle na hin u b sha i no dey surprised.

guy,
you just dey gbagaun so tey, I no even know which one to point out again sef.

Johnpaul88: The German referee was obviously protecting Madrid. He should have given Varean a red card for clipping the legs of Evra who was bearing down on goal but he deemed no fault and continued the game. He was clearly giving soft free kicks to Madrid and consistently ignoring those for Man United. If it were to be Barca now everybody will be crying blue murder and inventing all sort of conspiracy theories to hand Barca title.
For now all is fine.

i reckon you are saying we are the new UEFALONA.
hahahahaha

cant even say which is harder now
a 1:1 game at home
or
a 0:2 loss on away

I hope Higuain and Benzema learns and reason faster when we get to Old trafford.

secondly,

like seriously(using IK of rythm fm's mannerism)
it will be good if barcelona develops a counter measure towards parking the bus teams.

its becoming a template
the rule of the thumb to playing barcelona is to
PARK THE BUS
HIT ON THE COUNTER
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALVES WING MOST ESPECIALLY

initially I felt it was a hand ball.
But the pictures and replay on Supersport yesternight made me feel it may not have really been a h-a-n-d-b-a-l-l oooo.

but I would prefer having a freeze picture to reconfirm, problem is many photshop images go dey out there.

but all same,
boy was I happy that Milan won, even if they still get kicked out in the slick pitch of cam nou(which i foresee, but dont wish for) they have impressed by beating Barcelona, witha full squad of complete players.

BTW
kindly advise your "marketers" to sell Alexis. he is gradually becoming a torres. its better to cash in like liverpool before its too late.
just a thought

aieromon: BALOTELLI: "I didn't participate today because of the laws of the CL but I do not know why Messi didn't participate.

Best quote of the round.

[quote author=A-40]Everybody na coogar to you sef! Na so the other day you said I post like coogar. Smh

Benzema was utter crap yesterday! Like I said before his goalscoring record over the last 2 seasons is a disgrace! He has the odd standout game but they are too few and far between[/quote]If Benzema and higuain dont shake off the voodoo chasing their ineptitude then I guess we just have to wait for next season to win anymore laurels.

I tire for the two of them.

If only Mou will deploy Callejon more in central role, maybe that will makethem two change attitude.

nitlad: ^^^
Plastic fan!

now clap for ya sef.

AjanleKoko: I never thought I would say this.
But without CR7, Madrid is just an average team. Without Mourinho and Ronaldo, they wouldn't even qualify for Europa League.

United put all their energy into stopping him, and the other guys still could not put anything serious together. Di Maria is beginning to look like a player that should be sent back to Argentina. Benzema seems less and less interested these days

Only Ozil is the player of class in that team, after Ronaldo.

THIS SEASON we are very lack lustre actually with or without ronnie, difference is he at least comes to the party and achieves his deliverables(score goals).

we presently have two ABSO-F**K-ING-LUTELY useless strikers in Benzema and Higuain. They seem to portray an attitude of lazy azzes.

And thats ma only fear for the return leg.

As for Ozil, he gat skillz but was hogging the ball more than expected yesterday. Di Maria has always been a d,ickhead.

AjanleKoko: Sharon Coogar?

you miss your best friend eh?

tight game.
tactically o.k.
wished we won actually
but a draw is still o.k
the second half is in old trafford
we will be there.
and we will play our game hopefully more accurately.

on another note
why did the ref not allow them play the last corner kick?

^^^

i dont see that happening but if by the most astronomical chance it happens,
we don qualify for quater final be that

Hala Madrid

any link as to where i can watch it online again.

tomorrow we face Manchester united.

Go for glory
go for victory

hala madrid

I foresee a modric/essien/alonso/arbeloa/ronaldo starting line-up playing.
