I have been working on the customs monthly basis cumulative import data for quite sometime now and in this blog, I have provided a step-by-step guide to convert Nepal's custom department's cumulative data to absolute values in monthly terms. (1/4)

🚨🎙️ Nicolás Otamendi on how Argentina treats Lionel Messi:
“People always ask if we treat Messi differently in the national team.
The answer is yes... and anyone who says otherwise is lying.
We're talking about the greatest player in history.
But it's not about giving him special privileges. It's about understanding who he is and what he means to Argentina.
When Messi speaks, everyone listens. When Messi is on the pitch, everyone runs a little harder. Not because he asks us to, but because he inspires it.
I've played with him for many years, and what surprises me most is his humility. A player who has won everything could act like a king, but Leo is one of the most normal people you'll ever meet.
That's why the dressing room protects him.
Not because he's Messi the superstar, but because he's Messi our captain, our teammate and the man who carried the dreams of an entire country for so many years.
Some teams have great players.
We have Messi.
And trust me, that's a privilege none of us take for granted."
Rodrigo De Paul on how Argentina treats Lionel Messi inside the national team:
🗣️ “People always ask me what Messi is like inside the Argentina camp. The truth is, for us, he is much more than just our captain or our best player.”
“He is the guy who carried this country through pressure, criticism, heartbreak, and impossible expectations for so many years without ever giving up on Argentina.”
“When Messi walks into the dressing room, everybody notices. Not because he demands attention, but because of the respect he has earned from every single player who wears this shirt.”
“There have been matches where players were exhausted, injured, barely able to run, but the moment Messi received a bad tackle, everyone suddenly found extra energy to fight for him.”
“I've seen teammates sprint fifty metres just to defend him. I've seen players argue with opponents, stand up to referees, and put themselves on the line because they feel they owe him that much.”
“People outside football may not understand it, but when you share a pitch with Messi, you don't just want to win for Argentina... you want to win for him too.”
“For many of us, seeing Messi happy after a victory feels almost as important as the result itself because we know everything he has sacrificed for this country.”
“And honestly, inside that dressing room, Messi isn't treated like a superstar... he's treated like football royalty. For many Argentine players, he is as close to a football god as we will ever see.”
🚨🗣️ 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Lionel Scaloni on how did Leo Messi communicate his presence in the World Cup:
"Well, I simply sent him a message. He told me that he would wait for the squad announcement…"
"He asked me whether he would be among the called-up players. So I told him: ‘Alright, you’re in the squad,’ and that was the end of it."
"We all expected that he might make some kind of announcement and I was probably the first to think he would. But in the end, he did what any player would do, he waited for the coach’s call-up. That’s all."
"It gave me a lot of peace of mind when he told me he wasn’t going to make any announcement and that he would simply wait for the list of selected players. And that’s exactly what happened."
🚨⭐️ OFFICIAL: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia wins UEFA Player of the Season for the Champions League 2025/26!
17 G/A in 16 games. More goals contributions than games.
Ref tells Saka to hurry up and take the corner with stoppage time up. Saka does his usual slow-walk to run down the clock. The ref calmly waits, and the absolute second Saka gets into position? He blows for half-time.
Absolute cinema. Masterclass game management for a final.
Arsenal got so used to getting away with murder from Premier League refs that when someone actually enforces the rules, they think they’re being robbed.
Credit where it’s due tho, they played some demonic football to get here. But if PL refs weren't so intimidated by Arteta’s touchline tantrums and fooled by their theatrics, Arsenal wouldn’t be parading a PGMOL trophy today.
Justice served in Europe! 🫶🏼
Pep Guardiola on having a stand named after him at the Etihad Stadium: "What can I say? It's the biggest recognition, more than anything else. In generations, 'Who is that guy? Who is that name?' They'll say, 'Ah he was a guy, a bald guy, won some trophies'..." [via @ManCity]
🔵🫂 Erling Haaland for Pep Guardiola…
“A coach who never stopped teaching. It sounds crazy to say this, but you made greatness feel normal”.
“Even after hat-tricks, wins and trophies, there was always another lesson, another challenge and another level to reach. That mentality changed this club forever and changed me too. The honour of a lifetime to work with the best. Thank you for everything, boss”.
🔵✨ 9 years ago today: Manchester City completed the signing of Bernardo Silva from Monaco for €50m. 🇵🇹
He went on to win 19 trophies with the English club, making just over 460 appearances and contributing to just over 150 goals.
A very successful transfer. ✅
"I will not accept for this club to be used as a diversionary tactic on poor investment decisions from other clubs... We've managed ourselves well and we will be judged by facts..."
Our Chairman, #OnThisDay in 2019. 👊
