Ramadan Kareem!! (28 Viewers)

[Il Re]

@ Seven, i really used to respect you and thought you were an intelligent poster, but ur earlier classless posts have changed that, maybe your mum was screwed by a muslim man? feeling bitter about it still? who knows, but it's not nice of me talking about your mum like that is it? one thing you should learn, some people hold their religeon dear to their heart, so a little bit of respect will earn the respect of others, were all juventus fans here

anyways, on topic, i think a huge fuss is being made over something very minor, i mean, has anyone here gone and asked momo if he is fasting? maybe, just maybe, god forbid, he is chosing not to fast and make them up later?

and if the guy really wants to fast i think it should be respected, to compare that with being an alcoholic is just....oh dear

i personally think that if he choses to fast during the month, and there is no doubt he will not perform to the best of his ability, he should take a pay cut for that month, that's what i would do in his position, and i think that's the right thing to do

people think one needs a reason to hate religion. why is that? some of us think religion is a problem on society that must be eradicated

 

[Lion]

Religion is not a problem

 

[bianconero]

if he is fasting, I am sure it is not the first time, and that he can look after his own body's needs.

I have known a few players who could not eat before a match because if nerves, but managed to perform.

My only concern would be dehydration, which could cause harm.

Anyone see him drinking on Sunday?

using profanity or sarcasm can be an example of hatred, can't it

 

[Seven]

I agree with you on this. Some people like to exaggerate ('holier than thou') their beliefs and that's perhaps why these athletes are fasting even though they know it's effecting their performance and hence I can understand your frustration.

However, to ridicule Sissoko for fasting without even knowing that he fasted on Sunday or whether that was actually the reason why he didn't perform as well, is completely wrong. Even a scientist tests a theory more than once to prove its validity.

I never ridiculed Sissoko. I have said a couple of times, even in this thread, that I'm a big fan of his and that it wasn't so much Sissoko's personal problem, but a bigger issue whenever you have muslim players on your roster.

@Il Re: I think you mistake disagreeing with insulting. Don't worry, it's a mistake people often make when they think in religious dogmas.

So we have to pick our starting 11 according to their meals now.

Buffon: Shit I feel so hungry, I've barely eat a thing since morning.

Ranieri: No shit I will start with Chimenti then.

That's because they all died.

Besides going to war while fasting.. that earns you 15 extra virgins at the very least.

thats it, let it all out.

The problem with all dogmata is that sooner or later they bite.

 

[Fred]

Not really. It has been an argument in Belgium for ages. We have lots of muslim players here and their performance always dramatically drops. Which is very very annoying as they can postpone their Ramadan, but refuse to do so. Hence I think it would be very unprofessional of Sissoko to fast right now.

Ramadan is a month in our calender you ignorant fuck, thats like saying postpone your january

 

[Ahmed]

I'm postponing my next year's Ramadan to 2013, anybody else planning to do that?

 

[bianconero]

I've just postponed today: so will have to do it all again tomorrow.

I'm thinking of postponing my July 2009 to the next year, so i can have two more months of holiday

There was a report on Sky Sport 24 before Ramadan about the players who are fasting , they mentioned a lot of names and yes Momo was one of them .

they said that Juventus doctor , Dr.Agricola made a special diet program for Sissoko which will keep him fit for playing matches even if he is fasting .

Sulley Muntari , Kanoute , Abidal , Seydou Keita and Mahamadou Diarra .
All of them were mentioned as a fasting players on that report and a few more but I cant remember the names .

In the other side , Samir Nasri is a Muslim player as you know but he decided not to observe the month of Ramadan this year because he thinks that
playing 90 minutes football and fasting is very difficult .

 

[Zé Tahir]

Doc Agricola ftw!

Seven, your argument is worst than a Molinaro cross.

why did it take ages for people to figure out that there are doctors at the camp... they decide if you are fit or not... its difficult to hide the fact you are fasting while training... lets say a person takes a sip of water every 15 mins while training... and then one fine day he doesn't drink water for 5 hrs straight in training... you think the coaching staff won't notice? if the coach thinks the player can't perform he won't put him on the field... simple as that... its unprofessional if you hide that you are fasting... if your coach puts you on the field inspite of you fasting and he knows it, then thats his decision and not yours...
don't you think when we signed Momo the doctors at Anfield wouldn't have conveyed the fact to our doctors that he fasts? Because i've seen countless interviews of his where he says he fasts during Ramadhan (not sure if he fasts during a match though)... if Momo has informed the management he fasts then ultimately the final decision rests on Ranieri and his panel of expert doctors... not mine, not yours... those people with degrees there are paid for a reason...

in the end all of us, regardless of our views on this matter, want Momo and Juve to do well... so let him do his job and lets do what we do best, screaming abuses at Secco and Molinaro...

Actually, now that I think about it.. Why would Sissoko eat at all? He has Allah's full support, so I don't think he needs to be concerned about his body even if he's a professional football player.

so why dont you postpone your february seven??
