TheGoodJoe:


Ha. Pinto was not playing regularly. Mascherano was. Mikel was. Gerrit?

As if Busquets will play all the wings. You goofed not knowing Mascherano is a Barcelona legend. Know need to try to cover it with salad.

Mickael2:



i think it was Bolton against Manu, he sprinted away from his marker(and the guy wasn't able to keep up) before he unleashed a strike. This was from his Bolton days, when you watch his matches for PSG you will see what he brings

Mickael2:



what Busquets does affects all the wings so yeah, he does dictate how all the wings are played

TheGoodJoe:


I argue what I know. Wait. Are you talking of Hierro?

Jesu. Hierro is a Legend of Madrid and also a football Legend. That I not up for debate. That guy who gave Raul that Super pass and assist against us. Then scored that beautiful freekick against the Psychological unprepared Peter Rufai.

I think he was Captain of Madrid for long and also captained Spain.

Mickael2:



typical. I have already pointed out that Mikel was a great player for Chelsea who deserves a place in their history but not their legend, how does that make me a hater? Whenever you criticise a nigerian you become his/her hater? Will hating on Mikel increase my salary? Or will it elevate me to the rank of a consultant in 2months?

zicky:
jayjay is not a Nigeria legend bcoz he has no nations cup medal nor has he won African best player.

TheGoodJoe:


He sprinted away from the player does not make that Okocha's style of play. Mikel has sprinted away a lot of times but that does not make Mikel a pacy player. Ha.

Mickael2:



I can't remember the last time Mikel outpaced an opponent

Mickael2:
Yes he was their captain at some point but in no way is/was he a Madrid legend. That is the thing, just because you play very well for a team over a long stretch does not automatically make you a legend. Hierro would probably make it into the best 50 madrid players ever but that does not make him a club legend, Mikel wouldn't even make it into Chelsea's top 50 players(he probably should though but he is black)

tbaba1234:


Jay jay won Afcon in 94 but point taken...

kellycute:
Somebody wanna take panadol for another man headache.. Chelsea refers Mikel as their legend.. and you wanna kill your self abi? Na wa oo. Eleyi gidi gan!

zicky:
that's what I want you to see, the bigger picture, each club have their legend who are you to dispute it with the individual club, we are not talking world legend here. what you are doing is like a Kenyan telling a Nigerian jayjay is not a Nigeria legend bcoz he has no nations cup medal nor has he won African best player.

Mickael2:



I can't remember the last time Mikel outpaced an opponent

Mickael2:



if you are a writer you will know that proof-reading is best done by a different person, not the author. Sentiments may cloud your judgement(it affects everybody even me) but it won't hold sway for an outsider. I have always loved Mikel, where do you think my name came from? When I was in the university we played a tournament and that was how I got Mikel as my nickname but I told them I'd rather be original and took Mickael, so you can't doubt my love for Mikel Oga, but the truth has to be said

TheGoodJoe:


You have made me laugh today. Hierro not a Real Madrid Legend. That was a classic. I thought Mascherano was atrocious but Hierro. Now that is a shocker.

(Photo Confirmation) Nigeria Handed Boost As Iwobi Is Back In Full Training At ArsenalNigeria have been handed a fitness boost ahead of their World Cup qualifier against Zambia in Uyo, with Alex Iwobi given a clean bill of health by Arsenal medics to resume full training.

The winger took part in full training with the Gunners first team at London Colney on Saturday morning, and was photographed contesting for the ball with his good pal Chuba Akpom.

Iwobi played for the team wearing white bibs at the training session, and the team also included Alexis Sanchez, Nacho Monreal, Alexandre Lacazette, Granit Xhaka and Aaron Ramsey.

Chuba Akpom, Theo Walcott, Per Mertesacker, Maitland-Niles and Jack Wilshere were in the team wearing black bibs.

And that is an indication that the Super Eagles star is in line to be named in the match day squad against Brighton & Hove at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.

If Iwobi features against the Seagulls and comes through the game unscathed, then he will report for international duty with the Super Eagles as from Monday, October 2.

A get together will be great but distance will not allow me attend.....

Joebie will make a good journalist if interested. I think he does a great job with his updates.

Bros Icon4s is a chairman. Kog45 is also part of the committee of chairmen.

I love the honesty/bluntness of safarigirl.

Goldfish80 always offers good insights that are sometimes missed.

Goodjoe has very strong valuable opinions even when i do not agree.

Komekn's knowledge of the English game is a real asset.

tbaba1234:


If Iwobi is back then we have the full complement of our players. No excuses

Joebie:
I try sir. I like the writing aspect. Not tried the others.. it's a hobby.

Where is the location? the US?
