It helps a great deal to do that. You'll not look foolish and you'll be trusted next time.
Football is a game normally coated with emotions just like all or most games man has invented. But emotions should never be allowed to shut out facts, reason and intelligence.
After the one-sided soccer extravaganza in which Barcelona reminded Manchester United how the beautiful game should be played, an avalanche of football ignorance flowed in the social sites like an endless boring river stretching from the land of ignorance to the knowledge-less society.
Arguing that Arsenal, for example, is the only team to have beaten the mercurial, phenomenal, classy Barcelona team is itself an empty argument, a drab statement equivalent to the empty trophy cabinet of that team. Insisting on that not only shows how shallow the football well but also the insurmountable football ignorance of the person. Real Madrid, Liverpool (beat them both home) Manchester United, Sevilla, Chelsea (gave them four goals against two at Stamford Bridge-Ronaldinho scoring a fabulous goal while literally affixed just outside the penalty box), Internazionale, Rubin Kazan (beat them at Nou Camp). Arsenal beat them at Emirates but just like Sevilla in the King’s Cup, was given the simplest of knock-outs when they visited Nou Camp like in the previous contest when they were bundled out courtesy of a 6-3 goal aggregate in favour of Barcelona.
It’s not a lie to say that Man U got a deserving drubbing from a side that should be getting its place in history books among the best club-side to have ever graced the game. However, even with this merciless beating, there is still no room for misinformation and rather clueless analysis.
By the way, do we really need analyses from all and sundry after every game beamed on national channels as DSTV, when we can all watch it, for example and especially from rookies do we?
