Fans slam Man United's performance against Barcelona, defend Mourinho's claim

Manchester United were well beaten by Barcelona in the Champions League after they were silenced 3-0 at the Camp Nou on Tuesday, April 16.

Messi's five-star performance gave the Red Devils no chance in turning around the first leg defeat at Old Trafford.

And with United's Champions League exit, fans across the globe commented on social media to vent their frustrations claiming that United's lacklustre performance was proof that Mourinho was right.

"Mourinho was 100% right about this defense," said one disgruntled Red Army loyalist.

Barcelona maintained their impressive unbeaten home record to United, dismantling their English opponents with ease.

"Mourinho was profoundly disrespected at Manchester United," said another.

"Mourinho actually took this United team to second in the Premier Legaue and he called it his best achievement ever. Maybe he wasn't lying," a fan named James exclaimed on Twitter.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
