🚨🎙️ Patrice Evra on Michael Carrick leaving Casemiro and Benjamin Sesko out against Sunderland:
🗣️ “For the people asking why Michael Carrick completely left Casemiro and Sesko out of the squad against Sunderland, and then played Mason Mount and Bruno Fernandes in deeper roles…
For me, it was a message to the board.
A clear message that this squad can start a project, but it still cannot take Manchester United to the highest level consistently.
People were shocked by the lineup, but sometimes managers make decisions to expose the reality of the squad.
Do you think Carrick doesn’t know Casemiro improves this team? Of course he does. But maybe he also wanted the club to see what this team looks like without certain leaders and experienced players.
I know fans always want to see the strongest XI, but sometimes a manager has to make a bigger point than just winning one football match.”
🚨🎙️ Michael Owen on Michael Carrick:
🗣️ "When we needed to qualify for champions league
• Carrick doesn’t play Mount.
• Carrick doesn’t even play Zirkzee.
• Carrick doesn’t rate Ugarte.
• Mazraoui doesn’t start ahead of Dalot when he’s fully fit under Carrick.
• Carrick Keeps benching Yoro.
Aside Ugarte who didn’t feature yesterday, none of the above players was TRUSTED by Carrick when we needed points & had to win games to qualify for the Champions League & they couldn’t prove him wrong yesterday.
That tells you all you need to know about Carrick, he knows quality when he sees one because he was an elite midfielder in his playing days and Carrick is Ruthless with his decisions.
He knows his squad and quickly marked out his Starting XI & adapted to their strength.
Carrick knows what he’s doing and the quality required for top level football"
🚨🗣️ Didier Drogba congratulating Victor Osimhen after the recent cup triumph:
“First of all, I want to congratulate Victor Osimhen for this amazing achievement. Winning a trophy is never easy, especially with the pressure and expectations that come with being the main man of a team, but he handled everything with courage and personality.
Watching him throughout this competition was something special. His energy, determination and mentality were on another level. Every time he stepped onto the pitch, you could see the hunger in his eyes and the desire to fight for his club and his teammates. Those are the qualities that make a true champion.
Honestly, if I was still a young kid dreaming of becoming a footballer, Osimhen would be one of the players I would admire the most and try to play like. The way he combines power, movement, passion and finishing is rare in modern football.
I have watched many great strikers over the years, but Victor has something different about him. His performances in this tournament were out of this world. Defenders are afraid of him because he never stops fighting, never stops pressing and never stops believing he can score.
For me, he is not only one of the best strikers in Africa right now, but one of the best in the entire world. Nigeria should be proud to have a player like him because he is inspiring the next generation every single day.”
@faith_nabushawo The 3 weeks I spent in hospital...I need to write a book 😂 but God is great...the nurses named him miracle baby...but I had named him Rafael even before birth ..meaning God is healer....he had to make it
So right after a C section, we always encourage moms to breastfeed within the first hour. We do it because we care so much about the baby and want that beautiful bonding and goodness to start right away ❤️
Imagine… they just cut through all those layers of your belly into the abdominal cavity, and here we are expecting you to be up, feeding, and caring for your newborn with the pain and all! 😩
Hats off to ALL mothers, but especially you C section queens. You’re the real heroes, seriously. 🫶
Share your experiences if you don’t mind.
@faith_nabushawo Am C section mother of two, both 1.5 years and 5months respectively but am having serious back pain and tension headaches , I kindly need help🙏
I have told so many people I gave birth and had a C section it’s hard to believe 😂😂😂anyway I don’t blame them I also feared having a c section because I thought your stomach will always be big🥹🥹😂😂but well guess it all depends on how you handle it
