andrewbaba44:America bombed Somalia on the same day Russian forces ventured into Ukraine. But one war is making the news and the media is silent on the other. America invaded Libya and FIFA and co did not suspend the country from all sporting activities. 3 Likes |

NinjaXmetahuman: We can also say Bielsa is a victim of his own success, If he had kept Leeds in division 2. No one will be saying he has failed, its because he took Leeds to 9th last year that they thought midtable is the normal for Leeds Among all the teams who promoted last year, only Leeds did not relegate. Why was Bielsa made a vctim of his own success. The same team that stayed in division 2 for 16yrs suddenly believed they are too good for division 2 3 Likes |

Ibime: AQ rapped about niggas wearing skinny clothes and colored hair so that must be the veiled jab at Blaq (if we can consider it as such). Skinny-leg-jean-nigga jabs are as old as old can be so I can’t say it has any address on it. You’re correct... nothing crazy in terms of lyrical content. 1 Like 1 Share |

raumdeuter:read again bros. Level of investment determines the club's ambition. When chelsea was on transfer ban, we considered top 4 a success. after the ban, and a big investment later, we expected more. Lampard was fired cos the owners expected more for their money. Same goes for leeds united. The club is not asking bielsa to win the premiere league or something. Atleast not by current investment. They only asked him to stay in premier league and he was failing to do that. Simone has never failed to get athletico above top 10 after week 25 despite such lousy investment from athletico. Simeone winning trophies is icing on the cake of what was excepted of him based on investment. If athletico want more from Simone, they will need to invest more. not that they will ask for more while they pay less. That would be making Simone a victim of his own success. Now tell me, how is the comparison the same again? 4 Likes |

Android22: I'm sure you know that "most" of America's aggressive actions in the past 2 decades have been geared towards Antiterrorism efforts. Surely a Nigerian who has first hand suffered the perils of Islamic terrorism for decades will not join the anti American bandwagon when our actions are actually aligned here. America has done arguably far more good than harm to the world. But that's by the way, it's sickening that people continue to deflect on the issue at hand and focus on whataboutism. Russia is engaging in a senseless invasion that is killing thousands of life. The most important issue on people's mind now should be the focus on Ukraine not actually about America or Russia. Ukraine is a sovereign nation that has the right to choose its own alliances. And if it came down to a choice between western alliances and Russia, the western alliances are farrr better than Russia. Even Russian citizens don't get to experience their rights to individual freedoms not to talk of what Russia would do to it's subjugates if it had the power. Western democracy all day over authoritarianism. 12 Likes 1 Share

NinjaXmetahuman: Do you really think lack of investment is the reason why Simeone plays such backward football? Or do you think heavier investment will make Simeone's never changing defensive approach more effective?. |

swiz123:Simeone has mastered the art of counter attacking football and it has worked for him for so long, it would be insane to expect him to change tactics now cos it's not fancy enough for some people. He could if he wants to but why change the winning card? He should live by what he knows till he is no longer relevant. Plus If his so called backward football is easy, everyone else should do it na. So if athletico wants to invest more, it should be to the strength of simeone's tactics. 1 Like |

Android22: America did not invade Libya. They just provided air support for the insurrectionists along with the EU. Britain pushed them into Libya cos they never forgot Lockerbie bombing. They were just waiting till Gaddafi was weak to pounce on him. Britain no dey forget something despite all the restitution Ghaddafi paid them and the sponsorships he gave their universities.

Someone posted a picture of Putin fighting the Communist war in Taganyika - Tanzania, I guess supporting Kabila against Mobutu and spoke about his support for Lumumba, Sankara and co, saying we should support him because he supported African left wing "heroes" Funny how we never speak about the left wing Governments that succeeded in taking power and the effect they had on their countries.

The double standard and hypocrisy of America and her allies is not shocking anymore but it's bordering on lunacy, when it doesn't suit purpose we should leave sports out of politics but when it does align with their interests sport is a veritable tool in pursuing/promoting an agenda. Today it is Russia (even though I don't support their actions in Ukraine) tomorrow it could be any other country. Someone said that their efforts are geared towards democracy; my question is must everyone operate the same political system and way of life? isn't this a contradiction knowing for a fact that the West pride themselves in "freedom" and liberty? Or are we talking about freedom and liberty that the West wants for others? The whole scam called liberalism and freedom was designed to enslave people while some tiny fraction of the people enjoy from the system. 1 Like

Ibime: Those Ukrainians are a special breed. The way those people like their country ehn, the thing just dey amaze me. Watching the civilians on TV taking up arms voluntarily, making molotov cocktails, and even those abroad returning home to join the fight just hits different. I read about the Ukrainian in Spain who flooded the engine room of his boss' yatch cos the boss is an arms dealer whom he believes his weapon is part of those being used in the invasion against his home country.....the guy didn't even show any remorse in court and even promised to travel back home to join the fight as soon as he was released on bail.... I come dey wonder the kind resilience those people have. Even billionaires follow carry gùn sef. I've never seen people willing to die for their country like these Ukrainians. I can relate with their soldiers on the snake island who told the crew of the russian navy ship to go 4ck themselves in the face of superior firepower (cos they are obviously trained soldiers willing to die on the job), but the civilian population not getting intimidated by Russian aggression is just something else. 1 Like 1 Share |

Amoto94: Western media obviously will promote the West. Any surprise there? The onus is on East North South to raise their own media to push their own agenda too You are saying Western media is biased to the west, who should they be biased to? If you feel they are not fair in reporting your country, then your country should raise its own media and report it the way it favors you. I don't think Western media has forced anyone to watch or follow it. Its like you tuned to Chelsea TV and you complain their are praising everyone in Chelsea team. Do you expect them to be praising the opponent? Do you expect Liverpool media to complain about Keita not getting a red card last Sunday? Do you expect Man Utd TV to complain about Howard Webb? Do you expect Man City TV to complain about Arab money? Every country has its own media, You can choose the one to follow. If Western Media tire you, there is Russian, Chinese Korea, Saudi even Voice of Nigeria In the same Nigeria people will tune to NTA thats paid by FG and complain that they are promoting FG and not criticizing the FG or that TVC/The Nation is not criticizing Tinubu 24 Likes 4 Shares |

raumdeuter:even you should know that the premise of your argument is flawed The reason why western media gained such standing is because American press claimed that they are afforded freedom to present the news no matter what No united fan will tune to Chelsea tv to get news, it's stupid because obviously it will be bias towards Chelsea American press claims that they are neutral hence the assumption by most people that their actions are grounded in Integrity, local news will reference American sources because they assume that the material is not bias but good and local people swallow such news because they don't have time to do research, there are so many world bank articles that I have read on nairaland that were convoluted trash, it's not even funny, imagine an entire society and nobody noticed it, next time you see a report from world bank or IMF, read the report well, it's skewed to harm Nigeria Amoto94: America promotes freedom when it's beneficial to them, they know that democracy for all its praises is a flawed system that can be easily controlled, there is also capitalism, any country that doesn't allow American companies to take advantage of it's people is the enemy, they want to sell their movies, songs and culture to the entire world, everything is done to be beneficial to Americans If America cared about freedom and liberty why are they pandering Saudi Arabia? 7 Likes |

Havertz10: It's not enough to criticize and criticize and criticize. Provide a better solution then!! Of all the available system of governance we know, which is the best?? Chinese communism that censors its own citizens and restricts the freedom of it's citizens? Where criticism of government equals immediate punishment. North Korean fascism?? Arabian totalitarian monarchy?? Western democracy. It's not enough to continue to parrot Russian and communist propaganda, propose which system you think is the best Available that is flawless. No matter how bad you want to make America look. It is farrrr better than Chinese communism or Russian authoritarianism. 13 Likes 3 Shares |
