I am someone who frowns at actions that contravenes rules and regulations bkus I am a disciplinarian myself, hence I don't serve suites to law breakers. If you interpret that as keeping malice, it is ur burden Danny, not mine.

It isn't about how I interpret it...it's just how it is..
How many people have reported you for derailing the thread before ?

It's a fact that you have triggered tribal discussions on this thread before...u and Idenna(omambala) .
How many people have reported u??

I would have said it's no problem until u did it again today..
Haha,calm down na...

Very funny.

Anyway, I do understand there are rules guiding participantion in this reputable forum that has over the years become the source of information and a place where people can voice their opinions. So, therefore, it's expedient we are conscious and adhere to the rules in other to enjoy the privilege availed us.

However, as at the time I viewed this thread after long abstinence though unintended, the comparison between Abraham and Osimhen, who's better, who is best was in debate. Don't forget Osimhen is a super eagles player.

Stats were dropped and it brought about the comparison between their clubs and leagues. This was how Chelsea, Ligue 1, EPL etc came into the picture and argument ensured. I don't know if that was the case before I surfaced. The point here is, talk na em bring talk but I am not saying we should dwell to long on it.

Moreover, as long as we are enthusiastic about football, and our best players plays in Europe which is the best in the world, it's inevitable to admire, reflect and discuss about the best leagues, clubs, coaches, tactics, matches etc, and wish our players get to play in one the best leagues, clubs, and under these best coaches with better tactics and pattern that will suit and improve our players.

Abi, if you didn't watch Athletico Madrid play, how did you know that club will not improve Chuks? How did you know Turkish league is not good enough for Iheancho if you only focused on national team football? I think they both complement each other.

Nevertheless, we have to balance things here. We need to mind those who feel uncomfortable and those who feels uncomfortable should also show understanding else there be problem if both parties insist on their "right" or "opinion". Peace

IDENNAA:


I have lived in the U.S for 15yrs but you will never know this...beats your imagination, right ? Poor boy



In case you doubt I will prove it with the passport and my name on it. I don't do online brag. I am also married with 4 children and a hot wife...

I can prove these things

You want to prove WHAT on faceless forum to give yourself credence to what purpose recognition.

You are indeed suffering with low self esteem.

I don't know but find your claim to be very very doubtful.

Because people who are educatrd in Nigeria have considerably better appreciation of the socio-economic and cultural dynamics in the USA than you do.

You may reflect that common phenomenon where a person lives in a country but lives socially excluded. That is too say you may work in the USA but you don't live there.

It seems paradoxical but let me explain. There are people who work and reside in the USA just like the UK. But don't engage with society as a result you have Somalians who have resided in the UK for 30 years. But cannot speak any English. So they are resident but don't live here, because to live means to be full engaged with society not excluded.

Their entire social interaction are with a limited set of people, there own people. That's why you find some Nigerians that have lived here for 20 years plus but still cannot speak English properly. Or are unable to integrate and or engage with English society in it fullness. Why because they associate only with their own people.

My cousin left Nigeria from a university teaching Hospital in South South about 6 months ago. He now works in a hospital where his entire socio engagement and interaction are with White English people in the North of England.

In that small time his accent and diction have changed his mannerisms too. His appreciation of socio culture dynamics as well. You would think he has been here for over 15 years.

You however are the opposite.

ChrisKels:


Ask the slowpoke to prove his bogus claims of living in the UK now, him go begin give excuses.


Komekn drop your passport make we see. I denna is ready to drop his. Enough of the lies

I really absolutely do not give any second thought to what you think. I do not need you to give me a sense of self worth or recognition.

You can believe I am from Timbuktu l really don't care.

It's a faceless forum for a reason.

IDENNAA:


I am dead ready to drop it not because I want to show off but just to let him know I am not lying.

However, I don't live in Burkina Faso , a country their deceased leader Thomas Sankara is my hero. I probably would love to live amongst my African brothers but for now I am a Houston based Nigerian.
I also plan to relocate some day to join politics and fix people like edopesin , Sheyishemba , andrew and Charles emeka...lol. Na joke ooo

LMAO you are funny

You want him to start faking accent like ur so called cousin bro, just to feel among? No, he is a real dude and he doesn't need to fake who he is. Deal with that

Danielnino00:


Racially,what is the difference between a black man born and breed in Europe and a black man born and breed in Africa??

Please ask him

Do you think when you apply for a job they care if you were born in Buckingham Palace or Ojuelegba. You are black and in most cases your name is not Smith or Jones.

Edopesin:


Exactly, a fan also hinted at this but getting to the Premier League should be top priority at the moment

I dont think he will start his managerial career there , I remember reading a post sometime ago about Abromovic telling him to come back to Chelsea, if he wants to start his managerial career

My goodness! What is going on in here??

Damn!

Semid4lyfe, Sorry for the mention again as I can see that several monikers have given you mentions here already.

As you know Sir, I am for anything that keeps this thread going in the right direction and I have said that off-topics like Euro Club to Club talks and other Euro football likes can always be brought up from time to time as talks definitely lead to talk. Just like Egbon Forgiveness have pointed out.

I only ask that we in here act maturedly to not dwell unnecessarily too much on them so as not to see this place transform into some form of Euro banter house.


Now I just found out from a quick read of the past few pages that you banned Joebie. Now, as you know... I am not in league with him one bit but you must understand that he is one of our top contributors in here. You must understand that I do this just b'cos of people that come in here to read news, see stats, and more as regards Naija Players. There are many people who read this thread b'cos of me, and there are others who read this thread b'cos of TheGoodjoe or Safarigirl or even BascoVanVeli or even Icon4s... And I assure you there several others who read this thread b'cos of Joebie.




I apologise on his behalf for anything he might have said to cause the ban. Please do this for the purpose of this thread. This is the only home of Naija Football on NL and we need our top guns.

Unban Joebie please. I understand the rules. But I pray you to kindly understand this thread has certain people who keep it going.


I know being a mod is not easy and not everyone will agree with your decisions sometimes but please Sir... Do this for this thread. Thank you.






P.S: I cannot believe the ruckus that followed after I logged out. Wow. Please let us all calm down. Chriskels... Sheath that sword. It's enough please. Merci.

Koulibaly didn't win any Major trophy with Napoli until this season. I guess he was average all those while then

He's average bro...person wey Neva win any spoon let alone of winning any recognized laurel or trophy

Dts y he needs to.move ,so his effort can b recognized/appreciated. ....forget all dis 1000 interception per season stat..not all big clubs are moved by dt

U forgot dey won deir own fa cup of recent... Now his CV is growing..big clubs are now genuinely bidding for him unlike b4...in a nutshell ndidi needs recognized trophies/laurels not stat ,he has already shattered d stats year in year out

When I first went to high school in Warri, l couldn't understand pidgin English. I couldn't understand, Igbo or Uhrobo.

But there is learning and adaptation by association a big % is even unconscious, but it becomes ingrained and second nature by continous practice.

I learned these Nigerian languages by participation, association, integration, and continous engagement.

In Nsukka if you did not sprwak Igbo and you want to buy something the price automatically goes right up.

I have a white Caucasian friend he is a Financial adviser from Liverpool. He went to take elocution lessons because his accent created a perception of ineptitude.

When you arrive in the UK and you are working 12 hours shifts in a hospital and over time. You spend much more time with your colleagues on the hospital, than with anybody else it's inevitable that you change.

Many years ago l was on a USAF base in Germany. After a while my accent changed to an American one just by continous association.

It's not Faking it's unconscious and conscious adaptation by continous association.

But if for instance you are in the UK and all your engagements are with your own people, kparakpo. You remain unchanged and many will swear you have never been to Onitsha talk less of London.

Go stay village for one year in isolation after some time you would sound like a village man and at this stage you will have village mentality.

That's why we say some people passed through the university but the university did not pass through them.

I think you are one of them.

elyte89:

You know stats are one thing but they only tell you half the story about a player.

You need to see him play in a full match and over several matches you form an opinion.

So before Napoli won the coppa Italia, no big club was after Koulibaly??
Or he was bang average then?

TheSuperNerd:
Listen, I may not agree or stand with Idennaa when it comes to his suggestion to abandon our recruitment of Naija lads born abroad and I have let him know that a couple of times.... BUT... HE DID NOTHING WRONG IN CALLING FOR MODERATION to be made on how this thread, reputed to be the home of Naija Football on NL, was being so blatantly derailed.

You guys keep giving the cheap excuse of the pandemic when football was shut down but tell me, football returned and several of our Naija Lads have been in action even since. Why cannot that be the focus?? Also, why didn't they go to their various club threads to get all those banter talks done since Naija Football was not in action... Why bring it here??


Truth is there is no version of this where derailment is to be applauded. You are here calling for freedom. So people should be free to derail as much as they like?? Is that it?

Abeg... Let us be reasonable and understand that there are reasons why we have some rules that just must be respected even in the presence of freedom of speech.

I think you really need to understand that folks here didn't just jumped into this club and leagues discussion all of a sudden... the prolong debate and comparism of all super eagles players and others brought the discussion....and moreover that's the major football going on now.

Just that I think some folks are intimidated with some discussions here because left to me I don't see this discuss as issues and moreover it is always done once a while

The main point is moderation. That is all. Moderate even in digression. Finito.

I don't know if some peeps here think nairaland is like their nuclear family where they can dish out instructions the way they like....

Over 90% of us here are men some with families already...everyone deserve some level of respect. I was so disappointed with the outcry and involving the MOD all because of the UEFA and league discuss.

just know that deviants are sometime necessary in the society because without them the society will be boring

Please you guys need to pardon me in advance ooooo because I will derail once a while I hate too much of orderliness it makes me think I am in Denmark/Japan when I am in Nigeria

Even that Andrew Ban just weak me. I don't even know how to plead yet.

One of our fun guys in here.

You are still not getting it. If you get it, you won't even apologise b'cos even I also post a few off-topics. And I always try to indicate when I am doing so.

The only difference is that I try not to encourage too much dwellings on it. We discuss it for a while and then we leave it there till some other time. It's that simple.

I hope you get it now.
