European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by ReLaTE(m): 12:11pm On Sep 28, 2014
elampiro: Everton play fast but they play on the ground. They are also not as strong as they were last season. Let's hope that Herrera recovers to see how we can beat them with a passing game. I think the midfield four of Blind, Di Maria, Herrera and Mata should be able to do well. But they will find it harder against West Brom. West Brom are physical but also play on the ground.

.............................

With 3 defenders we conceded 3 goals in 3 matches. With four defenders we conceded 6 goals in three matches. lol

.............................

We are yet to concede with Phil Jones in our centre back. I think he should be the first choice centre back. I will prefer Jones and Smalling pairing at the back because of aerial battle. And they are very athletic. Johny Evans+Jones pairing will also be good, they will be able to play the ball out of the denfece well.
on point, am always comfortable whenever Jones is in our defence.

Foreign Affairs / Medal Of Honor For Afghanistan Hero by ReLaTE(m): 7:20am On Jul 22, 2014
Medal of Honor for Afghanistan hero
July 21, 2014 11:47 PM

Pitts was wounded by shrapnel but eventually made a complete recovery
US President Barack Obama has awarded America's highest military decoration to a soldier who single-handedly fended off a Taliban attack after his comrades were killed or relocated.

Former Staff Sgt Ryan Pitts, 28, is the ninth living veteran of Afghanistan or Iraq to receive the Medal of Honor.

In July 2008 he was manning an observation post that came under attack.

Though wounded, he held off the enemy with grenades and a machine gun.

"In Ryan Pitts you see the humility and the loyalty that define America's men and women in uniform," Mr Obama said at the White House ceremony on Monday. "Of this medal, he says, 'It's not mine alone. It belongs to everybody who was there that day because we did it together.'"

On 13 July 2008, 48 US soldiers including Mr Pitts were setting up a small base in Wanat, Afghanistan.

Mr Pitts and eight other US soldiers were manning a tiny outpost just outside the base, which Mr Obama described as "an elevated patch of boulders and sandbags".


Obama injected a bit of levity into the otherwise solemn ceremony, joking about Pitts' wedding anniversary
'One American'

In the pre-dawn darkness, as many as 200 insurgents attacked with machine guns, mortars and rocket-propelled grenades, and almost immediately Mr Pitts and his team were all wounded.

As the insurgent fighters pressed the attack on his position, Mr Pitts returned fire with grenades and a machine gun, though he was bleeding heavily from shrapnel wounds in the arm and both legs.

After pulling the pins in the grenades, he held onto them for several seconds before throwing them, to ensure they would explode before the enemy fighters could hurl them back at him.

Believing he was about to die, Mr Pitts helped direct US air strikes to reinforce the defenders, ultimately driving the insurgents back.

Mr Pitts was evacuated about an hour after the attack began.

"That little post was on the verge of falling, giving the enemy a perch to devastate the base below,'' Mr Obama said. "Against that onslaught, one American held the line."

In the end, nine American troops were killed in the battle.

"Valour was everywhere that day, and the real heroes are the nine men who made the ultimate sacrifice so the rest of us could return home," Mr Pitts said. "It is their names - not mine - that I want people to know."

Mr Pitts joined the army in 2003 at the age of 17, and trained as an airborne soldier. He deployed twice to Afghanistan and left the army in 2009 after making a full recovery from his injuries.

He now lives in New Hampshire with his wife and one-year-old son, and works in the software industry.

lawyer: @poster

These insults are not necessary. Yes All Nigerians are disappointed in the way and manner they lost but you don't have to insult Yobo's body parts and bring his wife into these Insults too. Thats just childish and Immature. There are better ways to criticize the Teams performance than to take it personally. Despite the Vitriol you just poured on Yobo, i think he played very well and the Own goal was a result of his collision with Enyeama. And if you are to praise Osaze the the highest heavens, why did you forget to add that it was osaze that unnecessary gave the ball away that led to a corner kick? Please stop abusing people personally and bring their families into it because you are angry. How would you feel if you were the one playing for Nigeria and everyone begins to insult your lips, abuse your wife for no just cause and curse your mom because you didn't play well in one match. Criticize constructively and not personally!
dnt take every humour personal, are u a woman? we need those humour to cheer up and forget about our exit in the WC.

ideyvexnow: How Nigeria Can Win The Fifa World Cup In 2018.

It is no longer news that Nigeria have just been eliminated from the ongoing 2014 Fifa World cup in Brazil.

This can be attributed to many factors such as poor squad selection, in ability to defend set pieces, lack of creativity in the final third of the

pitch and finally, sub standard/half baked player abilities development (with the exception of Enyeama)

The Real Problem....

It is public knowledge that Nigeria is the most successful country in the world at the Fifa Under 17 World Cup level, but we have not been able

to translate this success to the Super Eagles.

The Reason for this is simply because, at the under 17 level, Nigeria has lots of football academies around the country whose job is to scout for

and train naturally talented and skillful young players who are between JS3 and SS2 level.

These academies help the young footballers to develop their personal abilities like running, jumping, heading, shooting, passing, dribbling, ball

juggling etc.

As a result, Nigeria benefits immensely, by winning lots of Under 17 world cups.

Our problem begins once these players return from the under 17 world cup tournaments.

These players are simply abandoned to their own fate to fend for themselves and as a result, the following happens,

1. The team spirit and cohesion is destroyed

2. The youngsters whose can't fend for themselves at 17 years of age, fall by the way side or sign useless exploiting contracts that end up

destroying their careers.

No more effort is made by the nation to assist these youngsters in further developing their skills.

It's like stopping your child's education at SS2 level and you want the child to go and compete for the post of MD of a company with people

holding PHD.

The Solution is ... The Super Eagles Special Player Development Program ....

1. We need to identify all the top/best football players from the past and present and emulate them/ clone them. Players such as

Christian Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Ronaldindo, Arjen Robben, Ronaldo De Lima, David Beckam, Gabriel Batistuta etc. We will then select a group of

talented players to specially train and mold them into each of these special players. To do this, we will need to contract special foreign personal

trainers for each young talented player.

2. The federal government of Nigeria, will give these boys special juicy football contracts and payment packages that will last at least till they

become 23 years and sign a better local or foreign contract or are dropped from the Super Eagles Special Player Development Program.

2. Nigeria will contract foreign personal trainers to train of boys in areas such as dribbling, shooting, heading, free kicks, penalty kicks, goal

keeping etc.

3. Nigeria will contract foreign personal trainers to train selected number of players to dribble and shoot like Messi. We will get another foreign

personal trainer, to train a selected group of talented boys to player like Christiano Ronaldo etc.

4. We will contract a foreign technical adviser to select and coach the best 22 players among these hand picked and specially trained players.

This Technical Adviser will organize competitive matches for these boys against local and foreign opponents. This will continue until these boys

become 23 years old.

5. At the age of 23 years, these players can now be allowed to sign contracts with foreign clubs.

Once we have finished developing super star footballers, we can now ensure that any Coach or Technical Adviser hired is forced to only select

player from our Super made in Nigeria Eagles

I believe that If this blueprint is followed, Nigeria will win the 2018 world cup with ease.

Car Talk / Re: Oil Leakage From My Gear Box. by ReLaTE(m): 6:51am On Dec 19, 2013
Lexusgs430: You found out the problem and your mechanic has told you the solution. If you do not want any intrusive surgery to your gearbox, check your gearbox oil regularly and keep topping up as @ when required. (make sure the manufacturers recommend gearbox transmission oil is used)

My Experience with Linkto's Partner
-----------------------------------------------

I have wasted enough call cards to call him just to get my items sent to me..On Monday, He promised me Tuesday, I called him on tuesday noon, he sd he will be sending it very soon that I should call back in the evening for confirmation. In the evening, I called him and sd he has sent my items, he sd one person in interested in my Nokia Lumia 900 but i told him that wont be possible again since he has sent my items tru Tranex. He sd the buyer is a tranex staff that I shouldnt worry, he will remove the item. that is when I know he hasnt sent my items. He asked for my acct #, i sent it to him that evening. He claimed to send my items on Tuesday and till the time I am typing, no pkg received from tranex and no alert of money from him.. Lagos to Ibadan is just 1hr +, and snc my dealings with tranex, they deliever my items next day before noon.

Sincerely, I am tired of calling him!! That is my experience and in few days time, I will share my experience with Linkto(he depends on how he resolves my issue quickly).
