Did you watch Southampton beat Arsenal and Draw Chelsea?

Did they play like a team battling relegation? No. But the table is saying other wise.

1 game alone cannot determine where u end up in the league.


Southampton won't get relegated either. One game is enough to know if a team has quality or not. Villarreal will get into the top half by seasons end

Lol it is either the woman said that to get rid of the unwarranted disturbance, or she doesn't know her onions. Maybe the woman never did biology and if she did, she was a bad biology student, otherwise, she would have come across the topic "adaptation'', adaptive features, acquirred traits etc. Did u know that two identical twins who grow separately in different regions of the country, dont look same age due to different variables? If she knew this, she wouldn't have made such conclusion. Sorry to say to say this

So your assessment is based totally on his looks? Then if that is all and you don't have other factors like his height when he was 14 and his height now or something else then it is false. I remember attending my childhood friend's wedding, that too when I was still barely 24, all my attempt to convince them that the bride was my mate together with the ashebis fell on deaf ears, they maintained that she was 32 at least while I was 28, facial appearances can be quite deceiving




Bro u re right,at times looking at one face might be deceptive,awever some persons are gud @ it,I could remember during my undergraduate days,deres dis guy named Stephen(an IBO guy),we were having similar discussion, he said he can predict correctly everybody's age by looking @ such a person.to my surprise he put him into test and he guessed everybody age with 90percent correction,only few he got worng with eida -1 or +1 difference, some re gud @such, cool

O boy you can't be too sure. Aston Villa, Stokes and Westbrom are championship teams today. These were clubs that gave top EPL teams a running for their money just a couple of seasons ago.

Rather than Chukwueze standing the risk of going down with Villarreal I would rather he makes that move now or at the end of the Season.

Those club you mentioned gave top team a run for their money but the question you will ask if did those team gave top team a run for their money during their season of relegation ? Hell No

If villareal goes down the better players will leave there take it or leave it,as far as chukwueze is good he wont be there at villareal

Solomon Rondon didnt go down with west brom because he is a good player

Shaqiri didnt go down with stoke

Lol you need to realise that it is not rocket science. It is before your own eyes that the whole thing looks ambiguous simply because you are not trained in that line.

His mum is a professional and would have developed a sound judgement over related issues.

If she tells you someone is 24, you best think twice or thrice before you doubt.

Same way a doctor looks at woman and tells her "You are pregnant ". Disregard him at her own peril.

Bros u can't be too sure. Half of the season gone and both Villarreal and Southampton battling relegation.

There is no guarantee that Chukwueze would leave if his team relegates.

Only a stupiid man would question Chukwueze's age. If u wanna know more about Chukwueze, ask guys who were in Michael Okpara Uni of Agric Umudike (MOUAU) and its environs (from government college to Gate, infact the whole of Ibeku). Chuks was at most 17 when he came up against me in MOUAU stadium in 2016 after his exploits in Chile. Looking at his small frame, I was full of confidence that I would easily keep him in check despite his pedigree, bkus Dude was clearly looking his teens and I was vidibly older though I was 22 going on 23 then. To cut long story short, the name Marcelo that I was fondly called then instantly eluded me in the pitch and I was a mere Echiejile before Chuks. Till date, my babe still taunts me for my shambolic displays that day, whenever the name Chukwueze comes up.

Just so u kno, Diamond Football Academy doesnt take players who are outta sec skul, otherwise u present ur original waec result for age verification. Birth certs can easily be doctored but not waec results bkus waec doesn't register candidates below 16, hence u would be required to add to ur age if u fall below the minimum age.

Those teams were shells of themselves in the season they went down. We know Villarreal have the quality because we also see them in Europa.

This picture of Anthony Joshua and C. Ronaldo is funny.... Mostly because CR7 looks like a social misfit, and AJ is the cool jock.

It would be hard to tell that CR7 has up to 5 years on AJ.

Yes and it is undefined in this case.

Natural selection has to do evolution for survival and it is a process that involves millions or thousands of years. E.g. it is the reason fishes have gills to survive over time in water.

Now as regards certain children of same age grades growing up differently, that has to do with genetics, dietary, etc not natural selection.

And such difference between the growth of same age grades are more profound when genetics are further apart.

I.e. the further I am to you genetically, the more the difference, all things (such as diets etc. being equal)

That is why a German 16 year old on the average will be taller and more bodied than a Nigerian 16 year old. That us genetics. Their parents have tall genes.

However for my friend (insanety) and yourself who think a 16 year old in Agege will be different from that in Ifako Ijaiye or Orile Iganmu grin

It is undefined. We share the same gene and eat the same thing.

Even for the comparison between a western kid and Northern kid, we still almost share the same gene and eat the same food (rice, yam etc its is the means of preparation or mixing each food that is different.).

Hence the effect of the difference in age grades is almost irrelevant within our close geographical society.

When i was 16 yrs old in SS3 I ran relays for my secondary school. I was as tall and as fast as most of my seniors and I had been part of my school 4x100m relay team since I was 14, though then i was used more as a reserve.

By the time I was 16 i was bigger, more muscular and confident than most of the guys I came across in inter-school competitions. I was aware that the mere sight of me and my team mates intimidated many because many times my team mates and I overheard our opponents and their teachers complaining that 'these guys are old o, are they bonafide students etc?' grin I loved it! We were undefeated in Edo state interschool in 1997 cheesy

Those other schools would definitely have gone back after the competitions to tell the World how they had to compete with some cheating schools who paraded old men from Uniben against them. Na so.

Like i have said here before I once many years ago came across a thread on Nairaland where my own 1st cousin who was born in 1988 was being bashed as a woman in her 30s! I am 8 years older than her and I used to drop her off in primary school back in the day and at the time even me I never reach 30! yeye

The guy has had a disappointing club career so far, for all of his perceived brilliance.

We also hope that if he fails to perform, the excuses will stop as well. Thankfully, Bournemouth doesn't have an array of stars to keep him on the bench

Why some Folks want Chuks to move?! Has he arrived yet? To avoid a sinking Ship that gives him Opportunity to shine and get exposed to the World?!

Let me quickly remind Dudes wanting Chuks to move - of a Player named Mario Gotze! He was the Poster Boy of B. Dortmund before he left for Bayern Munich; and I guess we all know how his Stint panned out at Bayern.

Chuks has no reason to leave Villareal at the Moment, even if the Club unfortunately relegated at the End of the Season. He should rather focus on developing his Game and humbly learning from Santi Carzola.

He's still a Rookie in my Opinion, thus should wholly concentrate on development rather than seeking Transfer to any Club at the moment. Football is unpredictable, the same Perreira that was lighting up La Liga last Season with Valencia is finding it hard to get playing time at United.

I advise we stop suggesting he moves to a bigger or another Club, to avoid Repetition of a touching Story!

Callum Wilson and Jordan King are not Firmino and Salah, are they?

The excuse given for his lack of game time with Liverpool was that the forwards were world class, he cannot have the same excuse in Bournemouth and if he is half as decent as he is touted, he shouldn't have a problem taking up the positions of either of those men.

Playing 23 Matches no be Moin-Moin nah! Lol. The highlighted is exactly my Point..... Its better to remain where you are being loved and keep developing your Game than move to a bigger Club.

Perreira had the chance of renewing his Loan at Valencia, but he opted to return and fight for a Place in the Starting XI. The best he can get at United is starting FA Cup Matches.

For Chuks own Sake..... He should remain at Villareal for now.

That is a defeatist mentality. How can he remain in a relegated club?

He is no longer a rookie. He is a starter with confidence. He needs better challenge to up his game. If Villarreal gets relegated he should move to one of the top flight clubs that are after him.

Need I remind you that he worked his way to being a starter at Villarreal and benched some one?

In clubs like Arsenal he will easily bench Martland Niles who is starting regularly these days.

He is a better and more suited winger than even Iwobi.

He is well sought after and well seasoned analyst who know their onions have voted him as one to watch out for.

I find the inferior and defeatist mentality of many of you guys quite appalling.

I have already said it that he should remain at villareal people are just making excuse that villareal might be relegated when laliga is just 17 games

Villareal started badly last season but they ended up in europa league, villareal cant be relegated
