Nope, I won't give up on a German car to go purchase a Chinese clone car.

Maybe if better car brands come assemble their cars here, I'll buy.
Sorry, no better brand is coming any time soon because the national prosperity is not there . The best you will get are german imports.
Anyway, You can buy what you want, not my problem.
It is unfortunate though that one naijeria is the sole reason why such idiotic buying pattern is a national policy and so everybody have to suffer the underdevelopment and poverty that comes with it, if not i couldn't give a rat as$ if the whole of oduduwa republic is saturated with the latest energy efficient german cars. My neck of the wood will keep using that chinese clone as long as it is manufactured on our soil and we master it so well and then gradually improve standards and design.
A poor third world country with the most luxurious desires in the world. You want the best globally available while living in a shitthole.
Well-done. Just pray the oil dollars keep flowing in.

Too bad I have experienced superior cars to ever consider an IMV.

That would be too much of a down grade from my car crushes of Mercs, BMWs, Audis, Porsches etc.

My Camry muscle has all these qualities listed above and it hasn't developed any fault in over 2yrs.

Germany is the richest country in Europe. They need more dollars from Nigerians to provide much better standard of living for their citizens.

his church is worldwide for all believers not for the Nigerian government. his church can't take the responsibilities of a failed government of Nigeria.
And yet he is the only pastor of a big church in the world that has the headquarters in a different country from the country of origin.
The Church is worldwide, true. But Nigeria was where it began.
Who knows if it would have been this successful if he started from nothing in south africa, especially when you have xenophobia against Nigerians very high there. But now, he is a big guy, and they are all smiling at him, while they beat his fellow poor Nigerians to death on the streets of southie.

Not just Jesus and Aguero, but KDB has been preferred at 9 this season. Even Nolito.

Kelechi has fallen behind. I can not in good conscience back his signing.
Kelechi is going to leave. Hoffeneheim will snap him up if the rumours are true and i pray so. The difference between Mbappe and kelechi is one has a consistent opportunity for playing time at the highest level.
Guardiola is an eccentric anyway.
This is the same guy that sold Ibra at the height of his powers. I have learnt not to rate players based on guardiola.

As a young player, if you're not getting regular gametime, you're regressing.

And that dude is not getting regular game time, whereas Abraham is playing week in, week out and netting on a regular basis.

That's what I look for in young players, performance over regular gametime.

Look at Ake for example and how his progression has ground to a complete halt, to the point where Alonso got injured, and Conte would rather play Zouma at Right back and Moses at Left wingback, than play Ake who was on the bench.

Gametime to me is the most important thing for a youth player, which is why I've always supported the loan system. I would rather buy Isaac Success than Iheanacho at this point in time sef.
You are underestimating the fact that kelechi has been exposed to higher quality football for much longer.
Even if he is not playing regularly, he is training with some of the best players in the world, aclimatizing himself into the game at the highest level and learning under a football purist who is frankly one of the best around.
Tammy Abraham is in the championship scoring regularly. Big deal.? I don't think so.
He is not doing anything different from Bamford and where is that guy now?
I don't even think tammy abraham is gifted enough to grace the city attacking bench.

Belotti or Kelech[/b]i have the technique we are looking for.

I need to have another look at Dembele as well.

Clearly if we use our church mind, we would go for Kelechi given what others are costing.
[b]Kelechi as a first striker for chelsea? ha.
Isn't that too heavy a load for the young lad?
Who knows? He may actually break out like Mbappe did.
Dembele is good from the few clips i have seen. Have not really watched him that much too.

Chelsea have never had such a type of no9

That kind of no9 forces you to play too high up the pitch as you can't play long ball to him and expect him to hold up or win any duels. Teams will start to hammer us on counterattack. Bet you never thought of that.

We ain't changing who we are and how we set up in order to accommodate such type of no9. We are not Barcelona.
So who do you suggest that would fit the 9 with world class proficiency and would still be technical enough to contribute to build-up of our play, among the strikers currently available on the market right now?
Belotti is the only one that comes to mind for me. And he is going to cost the world

It would still be the same 4 year term,but without limit of how many times a particular person can be reelected consecutively; so if the people feel that a leader hasnt performed,they can remove him/her after 4 years when election comes around.

There is a constitutional limit and yet the guy wanted to break the law looking for a third term.

Sign jelechi? To come play where in cfc? Abeg if na joke stop am. You think he's better than our youth players because he was given a chance in a team that is short of striking option.
Kelechi is not good enough to lead the line for chelsea yet and nowhere did i say chelsea should buy him.
He is better than all our prospects though and that is a fact. How many chances has he actually been given at city.? The competition for attackers at city makes Chelsea look like a cake-walk and yet the kid has monster stats.
He needs a young hippie team like Dortmund or Monaco to give him a chance. For all the Mbappe hype, iheanacho is as talented honestly.

My man leave story.

Talented for no9 ke. Why didn't Atleti use him as no9?

The Griezman I know was a left-winger all his life at Sociedad, and now plays behind the striker at Atleti.

He is too small and weak to play no9 by himself.
A very fluid 9 is what i have in mind. And i think he can excel.
You are selling Greizman short.

Where does the comparison with Lukaku and Morata come in?

The eye some of una dey take watch football dey fear me sometimes.
Greizmann is a not a 9 for Athleti, true. But He is talented and prolific enough to play a 9. Atleast a non-traditional 9 that links with Attacking mids effectively which i think is what we really need.
I brought Lukaku and Morata in because those are the ones we are been linked with.

But there is a serious deficit in leadership in Africa. Even the ones we think are decent here are not near world class.
So how can you then propose no term limit for leaders in africa especially in shitty Nigeria?
We are not talking about Germany here that has such provisions and for good reasons because they have enjoyed excellent leadership over the decades even under Evil hitler.

The scouts should do their fvcking jobs then. I don't want no 100mil striker with unnecessary pressure that comes with it.

If Monaco are getting it right, spurs too are doing it over here....please we should get relatively unknown players to come do the job for us.

Me...I don't want no fernadud or adabowale situation mbok!
An Elite team like Chelsea aspires to be, cannot think like spurs or monaco who were just fortunate enough to strike Gold in cheap and unknown purchases. It does not always work and even if it works, it may take a long period of mediocrity before the rewards are reaped.
All the top 3 club teams in Europe have recognized and established strikers who were not unknown when they were bought.
My recommendation is to go all out for Greizmann even if it means smashing the world record and paying his wife to convince him. He is a genuine star and i believe can bear the weight of the price-tag.
The only alternative would be to go for Belotti for 100million and hope to God he continues his astonishing form .
Morata and Lukaku have significant holes in their game.

I blame the eediots at the bridge who just sell players outrightly without a buy back clause attached to it.

Why will lukaku ever cost us 100mil? I no want if that is the case abeg. I don't want a striker that expensive plus the scrutiny/pressure which will surely come with it. My trust for lukaku is not that strong mbok!

If that is the case we should splash a little above half of that cash on Sanchez. Buy one of belotti, icardi,lacazette and one of those Monaco wingers and bring back Tammy.

The trio of hazard,sanchez and any half decent striker (I don't want any Spanish expensive shape keeper tho!) can perform wonders upfront.
Forget sanchez. He is not coming.
The optics are not good even for a selling club like arsenal.
They would rather sell him to PSG for 20mill than sell to chelsea and risk a wide-spread fans riot that is already brewing.
Belloti would cost a world record according to torino and he plays in italy. History tells me he is far more of a risk than lukaku.

How many black players in the past five years are gifted enough for Real madrid and has the required market value? The last one we had was makelele.
Pogba was supposed to be the next one atleast based on his galatico-level hype and performance at Juve, but united snapped him up before they did.
Aubameyang and maybe Mbappe are the closest black men with the potential for a Real madrid galatico signing.

Kelechi is better than all your youth prospects. His stats are intimidating.
Guardiola has a way of making you look worse than you really are.
Hoffenheim is set to sign him up very soon anyway. Hopefully kelechi tears the German league apart and replace Aubameyang at Dortmund in the long run when he finally fuccks off to Real madrid.
