Besides I don't see the problem with being called monkey... They know you're good and wanna get in your head.

We black literally call our best friends gorillas and whatnot

Even our moms calls us useless and says I pity your parents 😂🙆🏿‍♀️.

But we laf it out cuz we know say na yabbing. But once Nigerians go abroad they take offense.
Okay is stranger call me monkey I go yab. Am die but there are literally thousands so you can't just shut them on the pitch

jpmoriarti:
I am not a professional footballer.

The name of the game here in Nairaland, is bantering. If you can't take the heat, stay away from the kitchen.

On Nairaland sports section, no one is expecting anyone to be professional or to be respectful or to be sportsmanlike.

Here, just banter anyone who dares to go against you or the club you support. Ensure to drive the dagger in and twist it.

However, supporting your clubs does not mean you should turn a blind eye when your player, who is a professional footballer and is expected to be respectful and sportamanslike, shows anything but.

In the world of professional footballers, there is nothing like bantering. You have to be professional in all your words and actions.

Please note the difference and stop with all these red herring.

You don't see a problem when a white man calls someone monkey and you think you can weigh in on these kind of discussions?

Please stfu and take several seats at the back and maybe get your knowledge up.

JP's own delulu is waaay worse cos he is educated on these issues.
At least the other one has the comfort of being ignorant.

hopefulLandlord:


Honestly of all shit talks this seems pretty mild and shouldn't be creating this level of controversy. it's a fact that Koke has lost 2 UCL and Vini has won 2 and in a banter exchange, one that can use pure facts have the upper hand.

Also a clarification. The second part wasn't said to Koke, it was said to Llorente who left Real Madrid because he couldn't get playing time there so Vini is leveraging that to banter him too

nonny1212:
No mind JP. He knows the truth, but he is a smart talker

nonny1212:
Cook bro🫣

jpmoriarti:
I will use words like mock him, insult him, humiliate him, denigrate him, scorn at him etc there. Remember, we're dealing with professional footballers here.

Kilishihunter:

Them go still chop at least six, relax

hopefulLandlord:

Banter is most likely the right word cuz I'm certain only an unhinged person would just go to a player and start saying things like these. Most likely Llorente said something "bantery" to Vini and he replied in kind
I even saw the Koke own when Vini was pushed in the area and he appealed for a foul. Koke went to him and said some things in his ear then Vini apparently replied him with words too

nonny1212:
Bro, you are lost. Where all these barka fans dey keep their brain

So you were called useless all your life, and you laffed it out because it was coming from moms around you.

no wonder

Ijustwantto:
make it make sense please

FirstbornWds:


What is this?

jpmoriarti:
All these ones are speculations. We're working with what is available on the media.

hopefulLandlord:

No! You're working with what the media decided to show you. And I like how you ignored the part where I said I saw the Koke video live and he did lean into Vini to say things to him before he got up and replied but I guess calling it speculation is kinda par for the course for those who don't like Vini

Derumklala12:
Thinking of that casado and pedri pivot is really defined.. you think gavi is still a starter?? Same with Frankie and Christensen?? Cuz olmo and inigo has stolen that..
Norms araujo still benches cubarsi

jpmoriarti:
Yes. Only Vinicius and Koke know what was whispered.

Maybe Vinicius should have also whispered his response but no he must mouth off, true to his character.

It's not unusual to see professional footballers cover there mouths or whispers to the ear, because they’re aware that cameras and lips readers are keenly watching.

Maybe Vinicius should start learning this. But I guess his personality won't allow him. He must mouth off

Derumklala12:

Wondering if you had a mom Right now.. 😰

Derumklala12:
For the 1st time like in. Ages I was actually impressed with yamals dribbling.
Bro is closer to Neymar/quaresma than he is to Messi tbh

Taguchi:


Despite the final scoreline, the truth is that we didn't play so well especially in the first 30.

nonny1212:
I don't have a mom that calls ppl useless✌️

Colson:
most of his dribbles/showboating last night were pointless tbh.

andrewbaba44:
una still Dey disrespect raphinha for here because he no sabi dribble ?

Colson:
yeah I've noticed this too, and it's not just been last night against YB.
I'm waiting to see how we fare against Bayern and Real Madrid.

Derumklala12:

Literally every Nigerian has one.. just say you don't have a mom and stop adding the prefixes 😡

nonny1212:
My mom can't be like your mom,
swallow that😏
