No qualifications, just opinions.

Just some suggestions for Real Madrid C. F.

1) Camavinga is good enough to play CDM.

2) Vinicius Jr. is costing the team too much & wasting opportunities. Loaning him to Arsenal could do some good.

3) Lucas Vasquez is an asset to the team & is good enough to play in midfield.

4) Antonio Rudiger is clumsy & may cause unnecessary penalties. Kalidou Koulibaly from Al-Hilal could be a good replacement for Rudiger.

5) Rodrygo is not a good enough starter & needs to come off the bench as a second-half sub.

6) I don't know what the contract situations with Marco Asensio & Harry Kane are with their clubs but they'd be worth considering as centre-forwards in this team. If Asensio or Kane aren't able, Memphis Depay is still looking for a team.

Comprehensive classification of Ngoni / Nguni groups.

List of Ngoni / Nguni nations : • Bhaca • Hlubi • Mpondo • Ndebele (northern Ndebele in Mthwakazi & southern Ndebele in Gauteng, South Africa) • Ngoni / Jere / Jele (mainly in Malawi, northern Mozambique, southern Tanzania, Zambia) • Nhlangwini • Shangaan • Swazi • Tembu • Xhosa • Zizi • Zulu Altogether, twelve (12) "Nguni" groups are known to exist. From my knowledge in any case. Bhaca, Hlubi, Nhlangwini, Swazi & Zizi are the Mbo Entity . The Mbo Entity often declassifies itself from the Nguni group. Nhlangwini & Swazi are under a Dlamini dynasty while the Hlubi & Zizi are also Dlamini tribes. Ngoni & Shangaan are of Ndwandwe origin (a tribe assimilated by the Zulu Empire). Bhaca, Hlubi, Ndebele, Nhlangwini, Shangaan, Zizi & some Mpondo are often classified as Zulu. While it's unknown whether Mpondo & Xhosa qualify as Nguni, they are often grouped as Nguni. Using family groups to classify : • Mbo • Mpondo • Nguni***

Ancient Zulu & Swazi architecture.

Some more important points I picked up from this research : • The earliest type of walling, Moor Park, dates from the 14th to 16th centuries and is located in defensive positions on hilltops in the midlands, from Bergville to Dundee. This area is historically known as belonging to the AmaTiti Kingdom. • Moor Park (known as Emhubeni in the native Zulu language), is one of the oldest iron-age sites in KwaZulu-Natal dating back to AD 1300, can be seen from the Makhabeni Hill. • From an archaeological perspective, the first appearance of Nguni speakers can be recognised by a break in ceramic style; the Nguni style is quite different from the Early Iron Age sequence in the area. This break is dated to about AD 1200. Cross section of the ancient ruins at Emhubeni. Seeing as the first iron tools** in South Africa (i. e. northern KZN) were carbon dated to be from 200 AD, it's possible that older (Zulu) tribes who were alr
