isn't rooney a galactico?
although he's a malfunctioning galactico but we can use him.

One time gala..maybe

coogar:

you are just embarrassing yourself....
it's not an issue to claim you are anyone you want to claim. it becomes a crime when you have a valid document saying you are what you aren't.


if i tell a police officer i am age 2, i have not committed a crime. however, if my passport or driving license says i am 23 when my real age is 24 then i have committed an offence. nicole put a fake age on her website.....she didn't lie about it on her passport or a valid document.


you are comparing apples & oranges.

I understand all of these. But I believe it is suppose to be an offense, mostly for that model.

Secondly, how come it takes time before the truth comes to the public? I am disappointed that such things could happen in such countries. Even a lunatic should be allowed to lie about his/her age in the papers and get away with it. So, no I can begin to doubt if Michael Jackson was actually 50....

I suspect we are playing today by 5pm?

elampiro2:
You want the mode to ban me. Police bursted Nicky Minaj, and not Nicole. I can't give you the link. Spamboat things.

you are a pathological liar.....
when did police ever bust nicky minaj for falsifying her age. which spambot will ban you for putting a url link on NL? you think you are in edo state where you can just open your mouth without control?

rubbish!!!

But, if there is a cheating, the western world will cover it better. Perhaps reason why they don't get caught. How many players from Ivory Coast, Ghana, Senegal, South Africaand other African countries have been caught? How many Argetines, Colombians? Or don't they cheat?

why would they cover it?
it seems you dunno how things work here. everything has a record. people of the same age are grouped together. there are records of documents & videos of birthdays.

there's no way any european footballer will lie about his age & not get caught. this is not a 3rd world country where people just appear from nowhere with a dodgy passport to claim 17 like osundo. they all start from a junior academy & progress into a youth academy of big clubs. there's a record from the outset.

Elampiro nikki minaj was born in trinidad not the united states. This would have made it possible for her to lie about her age in legal documents.

You take life too seriously here. I asked an innocent question, even in my post spamboat hit. If you spamboat had not hid my post, you would understand the angle I am coming from. Daily mail wrote an article and tied a lot of people with Samuel Eto. So it appeared they were in same boat of 'offense'. Assuming Eto actually cheated.

This is how you should have answered me the first time. I thought everything is being held in a central electronic data with such info as finger prints, names, etc etc etc for easy access by many parties. I was surprised someone could reduce her age by 6 years to make a career in one of the highest paying industries in the universe.

But I read that that model, even when her class mates were writing, no body listened, to the extent they formed a group to fight her fake age, yet she got away with it for years upon years. What you wrote up here is what I have always known and believed, but now....... It calls for more investigation from me. But are we also saying that those Ivorians, Senegalese, Camerounians, Argentines who have never been caught are perfect? May be those who have never been caught are the professional 'thieves'.

afrodoc: Elampiro nikki minaj was born in trinidad not the united states. This would have made it possible for her to lie about her age in legal documents.

Coogar was right about her.

But my major concern is, it shouldn't even be like that. When I check Puff Daddy's age n wikipedia, I might not take it seriously any more.

You can call yourself any age in unofficial setting, but its easy to verify if you are in an industry that requires verification.

The moment a child is born, they take his footprint and issue a birth certificate. The birth certificate would be used in the future to issue a ID

there are records they keep that was why they were able to verify that Obama was born in hawaii.

Unlike in places where I can just come out one day and claim any age without any backup to verify from

If u r not legally required to show your birth certificate or go through age tests u can always lie about your age anywhere in d world.

Its when it has legal ramifications like for sports stars that u get caught.
Actresses in hollywood have lied about their ages for years.
But the scrutiny is higher in sports. Shabazz mohammed an nba player lied about his age in high school and college but was caught before he joined d nba

why should you take it serious initially? puff daddy can be 15 or 350, it's a different scenario altogether to samuel etoo or brown ideye lying about their age.

professional football isn't music industry. age is very very important.

Lol. You quickly pulled out Robben's own.

Me I get too o. I have a birth cert, and I have never lied about my age. But it is surprising to see small boys and gilrs carrying age declaration about.

Abeg, how this matter take affect the formation wey LVG go use this season?

3-4-1-2 i suspect might be the starting formation.
it might be changed though if results are not good.

May be daily mail shouldn't have published that article. When I was reading it, the flow made it look like those stars had committed something serious similar to when a footballer cheats. Then Minaj own was revealed by Police only after she engaged in a fight. Then that model. When I saw she cut 6 years from her age......... Dat na Ukwu to me o. It's a shame such things are allowed to happen. I am disappointed. Any way, na their headache.

afrodoc: 3-4-1-2 i suspect might be the starting formation.

.....just like he did with the Netherlands, right?

The million dollar question is- which players would be deployed as Wing-backs? Rafael and shaw readily come to mind but what will happen to the likes of januzaj and nani?

afrodoc: 3-4-1-2 i suspect might be the starting formation.

Which one be dat?
not sure he can pull that off with the players we got o.

I guess 4am

So how much was Evra sold?

We don't appear to negotiate well or know when to make money from our players.

elampiro2: So how much was Evra sold?

Less than 2.5m

Rafael and shaw as wingbacks.
Players could be offloaded....and new ones come in. Adnan can play as the 1 behind d 2 strikers, so can mata and kagawa. No obvious place for nani or young though valencia can deputize for rafael

Dadehmola:

Less than 2.5m

I don't know. But it's ridiculous.

StarBoard:

smalling, pawa, evans
rafael-herrera-fellaini-shaw
----------juan mata--------
-----rooney--van persie----

it's a very safe formation. we will win 30 league games out of 38.

StarBoard:

Yeah i know. Personally i would prefer 4-2-3-1.....hope he goes that way. I just have d feeling however that he would experiment a lil.
The players that are out of place in the 3-4-1-2 are nani and young. Other players can find roles.

The success of any formation depends on who else we are able to get

Yeah something like that....but switch fellaini for someone better, hopefully vidal and pawa and smalling should exhange positions

I don't support anything less than 4 defenders cos this is epl

I'd go with 4-3-3; one of his formations

The boy's promising career might just have come to an abrupt end

Woulda loved to watch the pre-season games but the timing dey one kind

Young maybe(coogar's winger) not Nani

too defensive.....
it's easier to defend against a lone striker - i like the idea of 3-4-1-2. let 2 big strikers engage 2 central defenders and watch opponents crumble under pressure.

Don't worry- the money will be used to pay rooney's salary for 2months!!

What happens if one of those get crocked?
I'd say i'm still sceptical of Failaini.
And what happens to my boy Shinji?

Shinji competes with mata and adnan or one of them gets sold.....hopefully your boy shinji lol to dortmund so we get hummels or reus.
