I don't like these 2 US imports playing for our women's team.

Only Tobin Heath better. The other one na scam, football don leave her body.

So many young people

those who watched Ronaldo at his peak before injuries wrecked him, won't even pick Messi to start instead of him.

Messi, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho are attackers. RONALDO is a CF that can dribble the whole back line, entertain you and still score.

with the defenders they had those days. Ronaldo will control ball in your box 18, turn you and score and it will be so quick the GK will still be looking for where the ball is.

Ronaldo is what made number 9 a number 9. Was the best number then not number 10. In a generation where players invented skills
all this one two people do, like PS1. U see a player, a number 9 that will run at you with such force.

messi is the best i have ever watched played the game, when i was still in sec school then i used to play for my sch football team, i am right-sided but because i wanted to be like messi i would use my left-foot instead of my right till today i wish i was left-sided.
messi > (R 9,10,7)

John Barnes: How successful was Klopp really in the first 2 years in terms of being 25 points off the top? But we believed that he was the right man. Under different circumstances, he would have lost his job. If he was black, he would have lost his job in those first 2 years."

Here we go again. Another Blackman with the victim mentality. Ignoring facts and allowing emotions to speak instead of fact.
Klopp that took them to Europa final in his first season , enter top four in his second season. And coupled with the fact that they played really well in those times with a defined pattern. It doesn't take a genuis to see that such coach is going somewhere a needs backing including Money

Sniper4real:
I don't think R9 can miss 1 on 1 goal. Goal sense to much for the man

I really enjoyed him at the Korea/Japan World Cup.Him and Rilvado were pure joy to watch.

You are very correct. Tobin Heath still get something left but that Christen Press don finish.

Instead of the manager to give those her minutes to either Lauren James or Siggsworth. At least Siggsworth go work hard for the team and get good hold up play with small pace.

Press dey run like all those girls wey person see for NYSC camp wey never run even once for their life before.

Well , Press was not the Manager's planned CF. It was this young girl they brought in from America, Alessia Russo. She got injured while on international duty. This one is very good, with good CF height, aerial threat and fantastic hold up play. Unfortunately she don get hamstring

Oga, no one is talking about Messi here.

No one asked you of the best player you've ever watched.

afrodoc2:


I won't really argue it if not that CR7 did it over and over again for A VERY LONG TIME. Injuries stopped R9 from being probably the undisputed GOAT, but it is what it is.

CR7 winning mentality and desperado personality no be human level. R9 collapsed under pressure of expectations in 1998 and although he is the superior talent he does not have the do or die spirit of CR7.

The final answer depends on what the actual question is. There is a difference between who is the best and who is the greatest.

Cristiano played in better teams at club level at his peak.
Peak R9 was a one man show,
give him the ball and watch him do the rest...
He played in somewhat weak barca and Inter teams and was literally a man mountain, a bulldozer, didn't matter the defenders he faced and back then football was a lot more physical with quality Defenses especially in Seria A.
In a off game at Peak level i will pick R9 but overall in their careers Ronaldo has a better résumé

Yeah i gbadun Russo game. She has height, hold up play, and is quite mobile for her size. She has a decent shot too.

Meanwhile e be like the captain Katie Zelem don lose her shirt.

What do you think about Ella Toone?

Zelem softness was the reason . The team likes to press and Zelem is not too strong for that kind of game . Although she's a very good passer of the ball, but she doesn't have the work rate of Ladd and that Dutch Judo expert Groenen
But she'll get to play anyway against the small teams or get subbed in to slow down games against big teams

Toone is not the most skillful of 10s/AM but she's very efficient on the ball and gan shoot well and score. It's one of the reason why the coach had to drop Groenen who was the AM last season to a deeper role because Groenen is not much of a goal scoring AM. Toone also has good work rate too and presses well. She's more of a Thomas Muller type of AM. No too much skill, just efficiency and raking up the numbers. Always in the right places to make or receive passes, quick release of the ball without any ball hugging shenanigans that usually slow down attacks.

Excellent analysis. Zelem is a decent technician but she is always moving like i never chop.

Toone is a functional goal scoring AM. Muller is a very good comparison. I have seen her play nothing and bag 2 goals. I think her position might be Lauren James' best position though.

football more advanced. All about technicality, pace alone wont do thats why more technical but slow players like de bruyne thrive.

This guy is as fast as Mbappe, has a close control as good as Messi’s and has got dribbling skills that can Rival Ronaldinho’s.

TBH, there isn’t enough records of how good he is. You’ll only realize how hot R9 was if you watched him play, like Tierry Henry.

OBJ ruled for 8yrs. He came to power after Years of Military Rules. He clipped Wings of Cabals in the Military for Democracy to live beyond a Term since Independence and he succeeds.

GEJ ruled for 6yrs. He's from Southern Part as OBJ. He's from South South where Crude Oil are being drilled to fuelling the Economy of the Country.

Why didn't he restructure Nigeria?! Some of you are quick at blaming Everything on either OBJ or Tinubu - why?!

Doc..... There is only one way to fix Nigeria. Division is impossible to be honest with ourselves, but Regional Autonomy like it happened after Independence is the only POSSIBLE way to fix Nigeria.
