I edited the thriller of my first movie on Gemini.

The movie is titled Threet Thunder!

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

Away from this mistake from Mosquera which is stillforgivable considering his inexperience ans age, Kai Havertz had an opportunity he would have scored the second goal to kill off the game.

All he needed was a slight body faint to get PSG defender out of the way and get their keeper sitting, to bury the ball at the back of the net. He didn't.

Kai had a higher ceiling failing us than Mosquera.

At Nigeria Fintech Week I talked about Web3 Central. This is the story I left out.

Someone now in our collective was handed six African markets to grow for Bybit. They signed up 100+ local agencies to bring users in. 30,000+ users. $500K+ volume. 750% over target.

Thread.

This is one of those imvincible moment of threat he possessed!

Gabriel Martinelli!

[Agog.ng @agog_ng]

@uwembrown1 The best moment of being an Arsenal fan. So good to see....the video should not leave the internet.

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

In those difficult moments, one boisterous explosive run by Martinelli were our bail out moment.

Haven't we lost it?

Against Atletico Bilbao, against Bayern, and against Madrid in Bernabeu, he made the difference.

His contributions may not have been the most clever, but in moments of slip by the opponent, Martinelli's ability to smell blood, and go for the kill was second to none in our team.

We've not replaced him yet, further losing Trossard has piled up on the left side ineffectiveness of Arsenal’s attacking options.

Losing Martinelli will be something —far away from those moment play we had when he was by the left wing of our attack!

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

As an Arsenal fan, we need to post this 100 times in a day.

We cannot afford to let the success of yesterday to cover our 22 years of misery and pain.

Everyday, we celebrate!

Give it 10 years from now, that statistics will be closed down.

Everything has changed now, Champions League, Europe, etc. It has changed, and all the pointer is on English League teams being the strongest.

Can Barcelona or Madrid win this season?

I bet you, if PSG or Bayern doesn't net it, and English side will. Arsenal will.

Then Europa and Conference will be won by English League. This one i am certain.

Truth is, if the old system of European competition allowed Spanish teams to win more, this current system is not.

Call out the whole starts again in 10 to 15 years if this current system continues, you will see your Barcelona and Madrid League ain't sheeeeeeet!!!!

@uwembrown1 Ronaldo was booed, he scored twice to extend the lead for United.

Painful match if football to watch and remember!

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

The match that hooked me to Arsenal came with pain?

It was the Arsenal vs Manchester United. Highbury. 2005.

I walked the distance with my boyhood friend and my immediate junior. We were all Arsenal fans.

We just wanted to watch the game. See Arsenal win, be happy. That was it.

Vieira and Roy Keane came out the tunnel like they already wanted to fight. Smoke coming out their heads. You could feel it from viewing center we stood to watch!

Then Vieira headed home a well-crossed corner from Henry. Highbury went mad. We went mad from this side too....

Giggs equalized. The noise dropped. LOL.

Bergkamp scored again. Arsenal back in front. We believed. The first half ended 2-1.

Then that boy Ronaldo. Booed from the moment he touched the ball. He scored. To extendthe lead.

The dagger was Oshea's walk in ding on Almunia, same way Highbury went mute, we went mute too.
United walked away with all three points.

I walked back to the house in the rain crying. LOL. Hot tears oh!

That’s when it got me. Not the wins. But that loss. Against United.

In the rain. Heartbreak and all. No matter the weather after that, I was already in.

Today's United doesn't posses such venum in counter attacks. Hold on, don't reference last season's 3-2 at Emirate. That was a flash win.

You couldn't stand a Ronaldo, Rooney, Giggs, and maybe a fit Nisterooy's attacks. They were lethal in counter attacking football.

Anyways, I got home, continued crying till I slept, LOL.

That match got me hooked forever!

[Agog.ng @agog_ng]

@uwembrown1 But, Eze has fallen off to be sincere. How special was he before joining Arsenal?

Palace couldn't do a lot going forward without him stringing the play together, detecting the rhythm and playmaking for them.

After his brilliant early days in Arsenal, he is now now a shadow!

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

Arteta has put his talent tax on Eberechi Eze, and it is working:

—That Palace Eze was a different animal.

Proper street-footballer energy. Head up, ball glued to his foot, skipping Andre dribbling through challenges like they were cones. He’d drop deep, pick it up in the scramble, then just see the game three seconds early. Dribble, slip someone in, smash one from range, or just make every attacker around him look sharper. On his day he was unplayable. All you needed to do was allow him cook, and he'd cook.

—Now look at him at Arsenal.

Same player, different human. Sketchy. Hesitant. Half a second late on everything.

The swagger?
Gone

The instinct?
Muted.

He’s hugging that left touchline like Arteta’s drawn a chalk line he isn’t allowed to cross. Actually, I have seen Arteta asking him to stay on the line. Hug it!

Less detecting, less creating, less him. Just another body keeping width while Aretata's system does its thing.

And the worst part? We already saw the version that works.

When Ødegaard was out last season, Arteta actually let Eze play. Central-ish, free, on the ball, making decisions. He looked like the Palace kid, against ManCity, his long through pass over City defenders gave Arsenal the equalizer.

Then the captain comes back fit and suddenly Eze’s been quietly reassigned to “stay wide and don’t ruin the structure.”
With a handshake of thanks for the memories, now go stand over there, or sit on the bench for 15min after Tzolis.

It’s classic Arteta. Takes a player who lives off chaos and freedom and sands every edge off him until he fits the spreadsheet. Then everyone acts surprised when the magic disappears.

Palace Eze made people around him better. Arsenal Eze looks like he’s trying not to get in anyone’s way.

That’s not development. That’s Arteta’s expensive talent tax.

—This is also similar to what is happening to Viktor Gyokeres. His own is not a talent tax issue, but a confidence derail because he is beinf treated as an option, ready to be auction in January.

Same Viktor that scored 14 league goals. To help us secure our first title in 22 year's.

Who am I?

An insufferable fan, who want the best for our player's.

Like Gyökeres, like Eze, these player's ain't options, they should be treated fairly.

Pirlo was one my favorite midfielder.

When I was younger, playing football, I'd watch Pirlo and Fabregas video's and model my technique into how they played.

Pirlo was so technically gifted, one
the best in bis generation!

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

I am wondering what would have been in minds of Real Madrid player's for getting this out from ideation to execution?

This is god level Football with pure excellence!

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

@agog_ng Top footballer. Quite versatile.
He can do everything.

One of my favorites interms of Arteta’s recruitments.

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

@agog_ng He better do that oh! Because we can't rely on him for long.

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

@agog_ng They will get better later, but it will cost them something when the attack doesn't deliver many goals.

[Agog.ng @agog_ng]

@uwembrown1 Calafiori is such a gem of a player. He can do everything for Arsenal.

I rate him so highly!

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

It was at this point I knew Arteta struck gold with Calafiori.

What a player, what a finisher!

[Uwem Brown @uwembrown1]

I knew he will do this. I knew it!
It is dangerous to listen to this.

This is 90% content, and 10% his decision on the refinery IPO, when he will invest, etc.
The part of it that he is claiming being offered blah blah blah, he just added it to make the content make sense.

Ofcourse, because of his voice and the channel he has, while the outline the media they'll push for the IPO sells, most definitely his name will be mentioned. And, he will be approached.
No matter how much is earmarked that he rejected, it doesn't change the fact that media is going be one of the channels to drive the sells for it.

There is no way Dangote will push put shares for the refinery and he won't go all out to sell it, where will the confidence come from?

His daughters talking about it?

Me and my pals, we've all decided to watch it first, and invest in later. We won't fail to invest. We wont.

Not the best route to follow, but for stability and getting it right, that's best for us.

What he chirped as a bird with deep voice about paying the shares of the private investors is the standard practice, full stop.

Now see the summary of how shares happen when it is an IPO:

—Yes, that's standard practice. Before a company sells shares to the public (an IPO), it usually raises money privately in stages:

• Founders start with all the shares.
• Angel investors and venture capital firms buy shares in early rounds (seed, Series A, B, C and so on), usually at rising prices as the company grows.
• Employees often get stock or options as part of their pay.
• Private equity or institutional investors may come in at later stages.

• At the IPO, the company (and sometimes early holders) sells shares to the public through investment banks called underwriters.
• Institutional investors often get the first allocation at the IPO price. Retail investors usually buy once trading opens on the exchange.

• Early holders typically face a lock-up period, often about 6 months, during which they can't sell. • This stops a flood of selling right after the listing.

• Early investors take more risk, so they get lower prices and more upside. Public buyers pay a price that already reflects the growth so far. •Not every company follows this path. Some stay private, and some list directly without a traditional IPO.

This is general information that everyone needs to have, not on content being driven in a gravelled cloak voice to make it register a sentiment like everything Dangote is doing is different from the standard practice.

This is content, the money he rejected is the salad, and the investment to pay off the first level private investors that he dropped as somw serious info that decides his reasoning is just general information out there...

[Agog.ng @agog_ng]

@uwembrown1 Our German Machine that is preferred to Viktor Gyokeres, LOL.

Arteta better think fast in helping Viktor adapt to his position quick because Havertz cannot guarantee him consistent performance in front of goal.
