On the Eve of 9ja Independence Day, Clueless Ole drew 1-1 with Tactless Emery in a Match Flawed with Errors and Mediocrity


As reported, Jim Beglin said " we watching mediocrity tonight" and Peter Drury " yes, they are certainly not top 2". Gone are those days when the prematch heated expectations were met with fiery encounters between both teams. Now, they are empty shells of their old selves like a 59 year old Nigeria still fighting teething problems.
After some close calls and market place efforts, McTominay commandeered a rare brilliance by putting a shot where no eagle could stop. #Xhaka-doom dropped his head and it flew by. For Arsenal, it was a better Saka, young and unbelievably confident that set up Aubameyang. Auba, as usual, slotted home. And it ended that 1-1.
Both teams' playwork were poor, players were poor, officiating also poor, but only VAR stood brilliant. 
Emery was tactless, unbecoming, and undoing himself. You need to understand the problem before solving it. Nigeria doesn't and Emery doesn't either, yet they both expect developments and points respectively.
Ole got the DNAs but couldn't continue the lineage feats. Now Lukaku and Sanchez gone, Old trafford is only receding. Like in Nigeria, where APC and PDP ascent and descent guarantee no improvement but recession. 
We are all poor, if we can't understand our inhibitions as everyone can trade grammars but few can act the talk. Everyone can kick ball like Pepe but few can score accurately.
See ya soon.
Happy independence and remember a single year can make great the past 59 years. Join the movement of lets-make-Nigeria-Great rather than verbose complainants.

Brentford Beat Blundering Gunner Two Goal To Nil

  The start of EPL came with Arteta still unable to  fumble out of his not-too-convincing career in Arsenal. Brentford came roaring from relegation to beat Arsenal who dream of getting to top four this season. But like their pre-season, a miscarriage of dreams, they fell a goal behind to Brentford through Canos super strike. From that moment forward, Brentford became the Bully, created more chances and Arsenal passed sideways as if the goal post was at the corner flag. Anyways, White white-out on the field, the presence of 50 million bargain wasn't felt. Mari was too casual for a defender. Tierney will soon burn out. Chambers tried his chambers-efforts. Upfront Balogun was starved of direct passes. Pepe will never pepper any defender except when he is in luck. The dude cannot be consistent except he sees a man-manager. Smith is a ball-smith but combined with Xhaka sideways and momentary slip & sleep off, Smith Rowe just rowing to a fruitless breeze. Martinelli needs to man...

Lampard Outclassed the Master: Chelsea dealt Spurs two goals to Nil

Chelsea took the bulling Spurs by the horns: no cautiousness but direct attack. Mourinho was defeated. Chelsea guys didnt come with a respect for the master but they were all brimming to establish dominance which they did. Rudiger was a no-nonsense man, manning the defense. Zouma still un-fooballer-like but always decent.Tomori, your model footballer, tidy through the game. Kovacic was silent but stringing passes. Kante was a beast that made me imagined a combo of him with a De Bruyne in a midfield will be almost unbeatable. While Abraham and Mount were decent, William was the Marshall that Spurs couldnt handle. His every touch weakened the Spurs defense. He got the first goal and converted the other.  The game was all blue and Spurs were all kung-fu fighting. Son got a red card. The goalie a yellow.  Welcome back to Premier League, Mourinho. --toonday  

DECLUTTERING AND DEATH CLEANING:THE LIVING AND THE KINDNESS IN OUR DYING

Living is a quadratic equation with a pre-determined answer (death) yet we keep trying to solve the equation. Year 2017 gave a fair share of answers to many lives. From international, national, to local personalities, lives were lost. To us, at first it appeared a distant reality until someone close to us succumbed to that harsh reality. To the young, it's a distant rumor. To the old, constant topic heavily brooded. If living is an act of dying, how can we then be gracious in dying? I came across this term: death cleaning and alas it's the much needed answer. How we can shroud in our living (dying) the preparatory kindness that can live after us and make neighbors happy?  Every breathing being will one day taste death.  No amount of science, or achievement, or bitterness or super-humanness can change that. If so, won't we live in all preparation for the constant exit? Death cleaning is a Swedish term that describes a conscious and deliberate preparation for death...
