I don't know about ManCity but you don't snub a club like Barca or Real Madrid to play for Man Utd!
To play for what exactly....especially considering that they were not even in the Champions league.

You don't even snub chelsea to play for United. Better team, Better city, brighter future.

Bristol City are 17th in the Championship, thus won't get promoted.

So far the teams promoted are Brighton and Hove Albion and Newcastle UTD.

But he does look good...hope NFL are looking at him. Although England has a much better record of selecting black players than it did 20-30 years ago....still...a Nigerian player born abroad should consider playing for Nigeria.
yeah, sorry mistake it for brighton. Still Tamuno is not remaining in the championship next season.
There is going to be a loan bidding war for him next season. His father supposedly grew up in the same street in warri with the current NFF chairman.
They need to get that guy by any means. Chelea most prolific feeder team player ever. He is going to be better than Lukaku.
SportsRe: Nigerian Coach Denied Anthony Joshua's Request To Represent Nigeria at Olympics by vantage001: 2:07pm On Apr 27, 2017
Tamuno Abraham has 23 goals in 16 games for bristol city who are set to be promoted to the premiership.
He was born in October 1997, barely 20. This guy is the most sought after striker for middle-table teams in the premiership including Everton and southampton.
And he has far more technicality in his game than Lukaku has at 23.
SportsRe: Nigerian Coach Denied Anthony Joshua's Request To Represent Nigeria at Olympics by vantage001: 2:00pm On Apr 27, 2017
Imagine having a mid-fielder like dele alli in the Nigerian super-eagles? That is like having 21 year a goal scoring lampard.
Not to mention the boundless potential that young lad has.
England really robbed Nigeria blind here.
Tamuno Abraham aka Tammy abraham the chelsea feeder team player is the top scorer in the England championship at Just 20 years old. I can bet Nigeria will lose him too.

My brother, please educate yourself. The axis powers were Benito Mussolini-Italy, Adolf Hitler-Germany and Emperor Hirohito-Japan. Secondly, the bulk of Nazi Germany's forces was defeated by Stalin-Soviet Union on the eastern front (operation barbarossa). USA's main war was against Japan.
No.
Stalin of Russis was initially part of the Axis powers. They had agreement to carve up Europe and they contributed military forces in joint operations, UNTIL HITLER BETRAYED STALIN AND INVADED LENINGRAD.

If gahdaffi wants to displace the dollar, then he should have followed the sino-russia route where international transactions are being traded using Chinese yen and the Russian rubbles. But then you need to be a global player in the first place to atleast have the kind of impart which libya is not.

God have mercy. Did you just write these loads of jargons from your head? You need it to be checked.

USA doesn't anything without anybody blinking her eyes but thanks the might of China and Russia who stand against them. How does Russia selling ammunitions mean they thrive from wars than USA? What countries have Russia ruined? What countries spies on everybody?


USA invaded Iraq on the pretext of killing Sadam Hussein who they sad had a WMD. Did they find on after ruining Iraq? Didn't Tony Blair apologise for the wrong invasion ?

USA invaded Libya on the pretext of democracy. Lol, Libya enjoyed 24 hrs power, free water, free education, wages for citizens home and abroad and they had a great economy and even better than some European countires combined. But the real reason for the invasion was because of Oil and Gold. Gaddafi was gonna cripple USD AND Euros. He was gonna use gold coins as currency for Africa which would have made Africa better than Europe by 10 times. France orchestrated the attack and USA followed suit. Don't believe the nonsense MSM tells you.

The billion dollars in their reserve is siphoned by these countries. You should enlighten yourself more


Why haven't USA invaded Zimbabwe on the pretext of Democracy? Lol, its a dead land without OIL.


Read man but from reliable sources
The US does not need to invade libya because ghadaffi wants to use gold as currency as the policy dosen't make any economic sense.
Gold is finite, cannot be recreated( without turning to alchemy atleast), and can never be used as legal tender.
That is why countries use paper currencies backed by fiat or order of government because it can be reproduced and easily distributed.
Ghadaffi definitely was not the first to think about gold as currency, but it is a dumb move and america i am sure is smart enough to see the failure of that policy.
You are a conspiracy theorist. America is not out to get you

You are writing nonsense. USA has a conscience yet they destroyed Libya, Iraq, Syria, Afganistan et al. The only conscience USA have is if you've got oil in your country then they come knocking on your door.

What happened between USA led South Korea vs China led North Korea war, the last time it happened. Let me school you on something, USA thrives on wars. Thier economy is blinking and their debts in on the trillion dollars.

North Korea nukes will surely reach Seoul and Tokyo if the war starts and Pyongyang will surely be striked in return. The residents of Seoul still rallied today that they should exit THAAD away from their country. Some smart ones knows they will be affected more than residents of USA cos the war will be fought on their borders.
[b]The largest importers of american weapons are developed countries in Europe, saudi arabia, qatar, UAE. All of them are pretty stable countries who are not engaged in any long term conflict.
Russia on the other hands exports to anybody. Every third world nation with a few dollars has a russian weapon or loads of Russian weapons including fighter jets.
Russia actually benefits more from wars than the United states in terms of weapons sale. That is a fact that is grossly underrated.
The US economy is a tech-oriented economy. The biggest companies in the US are apple, google, facebook, yahoo, coca cola and co.
The bulk of american wealth comes from providing sophisticated technical services and the sale of commercial industrial technologies to foreign STABLE nations.
So in terms of who benefits more from wars, it is actually Russia. Every terrorist group and rogue nation has a russian weapon.

The destruction of libya,syria, afghanistan and co, as much as the reasons for invasions are not completely altruistic, the preservation of human rights play a major role too.
All of those nations have a dictator, decimating unwanted parts of the populations, crippling the will of their people and treating them as sub-human. And the US will not stand by and watch especially when the people cry out. It is just the way the US have been conditioned over the decades by her leaders who believe in American exceptionalism and as the conscience of the world. That is what they are taught as American leaders.
Yes, i would prefer they look the way, but i don't think they can, It is not in their nature.
You say the US invades nations for oil, but that is a simplistic view. The US is the largest exporter of oil, so i am sure they can do without foreign oil.
The issue is that the funds spent on the wars by america have to be recouped, and the only thing those shitty nations have to offer to recoup those funds is oil just like NIGERIA.

Why didn't the USA do just that in the Korean war? USA have never defeated North Korea in any war. They (USA) should learn from history. Besides this unrest will be affected by the Asian countries (SK, NK, China and Japan) if it eventually breaks out
[b]You actually believe the US could not have oblterated North korea if she actually wanted to and ended the shitt once and for all?lol.
One thing you Russiophiles don''t realize is that the US for all her mistakes and arrogance has a conscience. A conscience cultivated through centuries of democracy and human rights. Centuries of which the American government and politics have been shaped through the voices of activism, religion and human decency. The US still regrets nuking Japan even though it probably saved a lot of lives from an inevitable war.
If the US had gone full gong-ho on North-korea and even vietnam, those countries would not exist today, and that would be genocide.
I am sure Putin would have no qualms obliterating a sturbborn weaker neighbour, but the US for all her mistakes answers to a higher set of values.

And btw, the US objectives in the korean war was accomplished anyway. So it was a success in a way.

Japan and South-korea are already in mortal danger from North korea. I am sure they want the North korean issue settled once and for all so they can live in peace.

It is because it is no longer 1940s that you should worry for North korea. The US is now a very different beast.
In the 1940s, Nuclear strike was the very last resort. Now the US has conventional munitions that has the same devastation as a Nuclear strike but without the radiation.

A lion does not concern itself with the opinions of lambs.
The Imperial Japan was a superpower once upton a time, and colonized china, allied itself with Stalin of Russia and Hitler of Germany(the so-called axis powers) to commit atrocities against the human race especially on her weak neighbour china.
When Imperial Japan made a terrible mistake by attacking the US, the US responded with overwhelming force and calmed their gra-gra same with NAZI germany.
Infact, both Germany and Japan are now America's strongest allies after getting pummeled by America in WW2.
So by the time the US cripples kim jong un once and for all, i won't be srprised if North korea becomes a US ally in the future.

All those mansions you see in Onitsha, Aba, Nnewi, Abriba, and other places, do you think it was from money earned in Igboland? It all came from Igbos investing all over Nigeria. I honestly don't know what these Ipob fools want. Their getting Biafra will immediately shut Igbos out of the Nigerian market. That is economic suicide for an entrepreneurial people.
You are an historical illiterate. No wonder you yap a lot of nonsense.
Zik was more instrumental than any Nigerian in the creation of what you call the Nigerian state.
Even when the north wanted to leave, it was Zik that convinced them to stay and even threatened the use of force. So Nigeria owes its existence to zik more than any other person in history apart from Lugard.
In other words, Igbos are actually the real first class Nigerians, since Zik bequeathed it to the igbo nation. And now the people no longer want to be part of it and their wish should be respected.
