You probably started watching football yesterday. It was a fantastic goal but any football fan would list a couple of goals better than that

1. Ibrahimovic's overhead goal against England which was actually scored from outside the box;
2. Rooney's goal against Mancity;
3. Maradona's goal against England which required greater skill and technique.
4. Messi's goal against Getafe which also required greater technique;
5. Zidane's goal against Bayer Leverkusen aka "Bayer Neverkusen";
6. Van Basten's sumptuous strike for Netherlands (please watch that goal on YouTube).

I could go on and on. Like I said it was a fantastic goal but you really need to watch football beyond the players and teams you support.

I know the goal pain you well well that made you write all these rubbish. Calm down and read you won't, the thread says BEST GOAL IN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE THUS COMPARING IT WITH THE ONE ZIDANE SCORED IN CHAMPS LEAGUE FINAL AGAINST BAYERN LEVERKUSEN IN 2002. These Messi fanboys self

chinedubrazil:
that guy you quoted got a point..

He is right...
Leave sentiment...
You are too emotional to assimiliate what he is trying to say..

did you see the questions I asked him about Pele? how could he say that all CR7 does is score goals, in this Madrid who has more assist than CR7? does it make sense to you to say Suarez should be awarded best player because he has more goals just in LA liga to CR7 that won Champions League and had more goals in the competition. CR7s game is not all about goals, its about being at the right place at the right time and stepping up to do whatever it requires for your team to win. I'm a Madrid fan and CR7 is not even in 1-3 of my favorite players in Madrid but that doesn't mean I should belittle or fail to acknowledge him as the most important player in the team.

Jeferious:
If goals are the most important thing, why is it that Ferenc Puskas, Gerd Muller, Di Stefano etc. are not recognized whenever the 'GOAT' title is mentioned? Why is it that Maradona, Messi and Zidane are considered than those three I just mentioned? Why is it that Suarez didn't win the ballon d' or in 2015/2016 football season since he scored more goals than Ronaldo and every one else?

Inasmuch as goals are important, a player should be able to make other contributions to the match, and this is what makes Messi better than Ronaldo. If you treat these other aspects as not so important, then Ronaldo can pick the ball deep down from his defence and run at the opponent's goal to score while avoiding challenges from them.

It's just people are hardly fair in their analysis whenever Messi or Ronaldo are mentioned. If you ignore what their teammates bring to the table as well, you've completely missed it. Even on their not-so-good days, you'd still see morons focusing on them. Do you know that Samuel Umtiti had a better performance than Messi this season? His only bad day was against Sevilla. Still Messi would still be touted by fanatics as Barca's best performer this season. I've criticised Ronaldo enough, so I don't want to talk about him anymore. Same way some people would find it hard to appreciate the fact the De Gea is Man. United's best player by far.

See, if you want to make a good analysis of football, try to watch a football match on your own. Put sentiments aside, as well as ignore hype. The 21st century media has a way of making black look white. A defender is supposed to defend. If he does it well, he is a good defender. If he does more than defender, such as providing attacking options for his team like Marcelo does, he deserves extra credit. Same with a midfielder...he is supposed to be the link between the attack and the defence. If he fulfils this role well, he is a good midfielder. If he brings more to the table like shielding the defence like Kante, Busquets and Casemiro does, then he is exceptional.

It is a defective and dangerous thing to say that scoring goals alone makes one best player. Some ambitious defenders and midfielder would see this as a slight and might frolic very high into the field to get a goal to their name, putting their position at the risk of being exploited. Rather, appreciate footballers according to the demands of the position they play.

flawed, boring and emotional analysis. Do you know Pele? is he in the GOAT list? what has kept his name there if not his goals? why did you avoid his name? See let me tell you CR7 is epitome of what an exceptional footballer should be and who the upcoming ones should emulate.

blazhykowskyi:
Why are you posting the picture of osu slave on a public forum?

We are omoluabis. The picture is a welcome celebration into the omoluabi hood whereby our faces are scattered with tribal marks.

As a Yoruba Muslim its our duty and a thing of pride to serve the Caliphate. The Caliphate named us the "Yoruba" we answer today, the Caliphate rescued us from the hands of Dahormey girls, the Caliphate sight the moon for us because we are lesser Muslims. As a Yoruba Muslim tell me why I shouldn't be subservient and loyal to the Caliphate.

YorubaAssasin:
Until the average Nigeria breaks their shackles of ignorance, then we're still million miles away from reality. We all need to realize this is not about party politicking. Blame the ruling party all you want, it doesn't change the fact that these parties are simply formed for election purposes.
Until Nigerian politicians (both APC & PDP) and her people start to put our differences aside, work collaboratively, see the nation's problems as a collective one NOT, a party's own.... from an objective perspective rather, than a subjective one.

'Bi-partisanship' is what we need NOT, 'Party-politicking'

Nigeria as a nation is fvcked up, which is a known fact. Every ruling party is ONLY working to the tune of their selfish interests and to spite the opposition party. This happens at the detriment of the populace especially the once at the grass root.
The opposition party/watch-dogging has become a very dirty one which results in nothing but, a state of quagmire... again at the expense of the reeling poor masses. Politics in this part of the world is a mere game for the corrupt and educated elites.

Both APC and PDP are the enemies of Nigeria's progress.

God bless Nigeria... God punish all the Politicians !

the worst of ignorance I see here is on the people that voted for someone like Buhari and hey God can never bless the shithole after the innocent blood they have wasted

We don't want your oneness. Take it to South West.

[quote author= post=66202247]They are ignorant[/quote]His type can never be emancipated from Lagos/Ibadan papers again. With all the high rises in Onitsha I wonder what pushed him to making that dumb statement.

[quote author= post=66197936]From what you wrote that many people that hustle in Onitsha live in Asaba, Onitsha is just like Lagos, Onitsha being a metropolitan city that the pollution and expansions has extended to so many towns and LGAs, like Nkpor, Obosi, Ogbaru, Oba, Ogidi, Nwkelle, Nsugbe, Odekpe, Ogbunike and Umunya etc that how Onitsha expansion extended to Asaba being neighboring town and still expanding, just the way Ogun is benefiting from Lagos, so many that work in Lagos live in Ogun state.
Ogun is very backward when compare to Anambra[/quote]I wonder what he means by the majority that hustle in Onitsha live in Asaba. Sounds dumb to me

Yyeske:
Kanu remains what he is, a scam, Chief pig and an idiot of the highest order, take that to the bank and you can as well tell Emma powerless that yyeske said so.

What is yyeske

scoty2910 pls continue. I want to see more of Ibadan

LZAA:
also in ibadan

Pls put graphics

SamoaJoe:
Show me one place I criticized Nnamdi Kanu and I will deactivate my account. Everybody must not be an IPOB member to fight for social justice. I have been fighting against injustice for over 25 years. Go through my posts. I get angry when some untrained IPOB animals label everybody Afonja. It gets me angry. Am not Yoruba in anyway.

The people your calling untrained IPOB animals how sure are you they are IPOB members?
I understand how you feel. Our politicians are first class criminals but how do we stop them? This is where what Nnamdi Kanu is preaching comes in. Bro if your waiting for a REVOLUTION in this country then you will wait forever because majority of Nigerians from other regions are just OK with the way Nigeria is.

If Nigeria should continue as a country Anambrarians should not make the mistake of leaving APGA for another party and APGA should not make the mistake of fielding an incompetent candidate or someone so idiotic like Okorocha.

Samoajoe Why are you calling IPOB tout? ihe ina ekwu ebea na ihe Nnamdi Kanu na akowa since kedu ihe di iche? You called for Nnamdi Kanu to be crucified. Let me watch and see how you will change THE SYSTEM by ranting on nairaland.

All I see in that picture are people that look like Yusuf, Abubakkar, Abdullahi, Alariiwodeen, Deomellodeen, Sarrkideen. None of them looks like Igbo to me

Osibanjo is worse than a mere commissioner who never hesitates to obey Abba Kyari whenever ordered to put on and put off his boxers.

Nigeria Army is so useless. All they do is flex muscle on armless civilians and posting their useless pics with outdated guns on facebook.

See this one below looking like vegetable

What a shithole.

If envy can kill Yorubas for dun kill Igbos tey tey. See how they are calling for Shittus head because he acknowledged 1% of what Igbos can do. You will think these are Yoruba kids exhibiting hatred here not knowing they are alariwodeens in their late 40s, 50s.

As a Yoruba Muslim we are unapologetic and will always do as Tinubu wishes no matter the suffering. In the end the Caliphate will acknowledge we the Yoruba Muslim and extend Sharia all over the SW....Amin

Mynd44:
So school children should not be taught history/current affairs again abi?

I think their history should start with the Civil War that happened years before IPOB and Kanu.

Strikethem:
Chai, our blodas from the other side of the river be like.

yes oo, including our Yoruba Muslim brothers Buruji Kashamu, Tinubu &co

Pazienza and Cooly100 Una too much. See as just two of you murdered our suffersticated, lying Yoruba Muslim skulls with facts.

umarshehu58:
Why sounding so sentimental?
Are we not both suffering? The enemy isn't North but our politicians from all corners of the country.

What have you done to end your suffering? what have you done to end the status quo?

UfuomaUN:
But why are other tribes keeping quiet like nothing is really wrong

Don't mind these people, they are very OK with the way Nigeria is. Stupid country-stupid people

KahlDrogo:
More pictures of ipob elite commandos. ..

Omenka I think you should channel your anger to Fulani herdsmen that have relegated you to washing plates in Abia state IDP camp

deomelllo:
Village development is bad and substandard development...

As Yoruba Muslims, we always win in pro Buharis thread so if i were you I'd hide in pro Buhari thread and pretend I'm sarki.
