We talking 'bout Taiwo not Messi,nevertheless I rate Eto higher than George Wear. What do u think is the reason why some find it difficult to rate Messi ahead of Pele or even Maradona.
And how many Ballon d'or has taiwo won to start with

TheGoodJoe:
Jordon Ibe has completed his £15m transfer from Liverpool to Bournemouth.

Ibe had a medical at the south coast club on Wednesday and will now fly out to Chicago to join up with their pre-season training camp in the United States, having signed a four-year contract.

I guess, Hybe was not all the Hype after all. Only flexing muscle for Nigeria.

Wish the young man the best.

irondome:


And if he excelled in Bournemouth this season?

One thing I have learned in life is not judge anyone by their current situation. Everyone would always experience some forms of speed bump in life.

Icon4s:


Seems this one too has taken special likeness for you.

Those days when we dey primary school if a boy likes a girl e go first form quarrel with her then try to settle. All to win her attention.

Icon4s:


That is one trade mark of the English press. They hype English groomed players alot.

If Iheanacho had been a son of the soil in England by now they would have likened him to another Maradona.

Me, I personally dnt rate English players that highly.They only have good development structure. The individual talent is hardly there.

Look at all them Delle Alli & Ross Barkly how dey flopped at d Euros.
See also how Nathan Oduwa of Tottenham Hotspurs performed below expectation at d U23 camp.

When Jodon "Aib" chosed to play for England i personally cared less. We have more talented home raised teenagers rising up d laders.

I join u in wishing him the best in life.

Icon4s:


Brazil are in grp A and sebi we dey grp B. Henn... we must top our grp b dat o. Else na our Olympic party don come to an end b dat. Lets nt b deceived by dat friendly result especially with d crop of players that would b available for both us and Brazil.

Musa Muhammad has been stopped from the Olympics by the same club that does not even play him..

NFF is not doing enough. I think a first round exit is assured at this point. Getting to the second round will be a good tournament.

tbaba1234:
Ighalo is also out..

Siasia is going with Mikel and Akpeyi as over-aged..

Siasia should be calling replacements for these players.

forgiveness:


Eto rated higher than George Oppong Wear? Kontinue!

Ballon_d'or is the African version of African player of the year.

So far, He has won CAF young player of the year. No bi belgium pro league Oooooo. Africa! Africa!

2, CAF team of the Year. 3 times

Taye Taiwo has received more CAF recognitions than Celestine Babayaro. Even when Celestine Babayaro was still active in international football in Newcastle United from 2004 - 2008, CAF did not look his way but gave it to Taye Taiwo.

Are 53 countries that voted for him blind?




Bye!

this is getting bad every day. Let em call Victor Moses sharp sharp.

Napoleon55:

I rate Eto higher than George Wear,just my opinion. And Babayaro did make African footballer of the year top 10 during his playing days,I'm not quite sure of the year,but I'm very sure he was nominated for APOTY top 10 once or twice

NFF suspended Victor Moses. So no way there.

forgiveness:


They should suspend that suspension and bring em back.

We may have to depend on this guy for the goals in the Olympics given the poor form of Awoniyi and Ajayi.

'NIGERIA NEXT SUPER STRIKER' SADIQ UMAR SET FOR OLYMPIC TEAM DEBUT

Roma young striker Sadiq Umar, who has won the praises of coach Samson Siasia, is set to finally make his debut for the Nigeria Olympic team in Sunday’s friendly against local side Charlton Battery.

Sadiq could not debut in the earlier warm-up against Mexico after he was given compassionate leave to return to Nigeria following the death of his father.

The Kaduna-born striker, who scored two goals in six appearances for Serie A side Roma last season, is only receiving his first national team call-up after he passed under the radar of country’s selectors while he was starting out at Abuja Football College.

He has since rejoined Dream Team VI to the excitement of coach Siasia, who has dubbed him “Nigeria’s next super striker”.

“From what I have seen from this young man’s game, he is a star in the making. He will become a super striker if he is discipline and continue to be hard working. He is a good boy,” Siasia remarked.

Last month, the 19-year-old striker signed a four-year contract with Roma just as several clubs including Bayer Leverkusen are willing to take him on loan in the coming season.

Sunday’s friendly will kick off by 1am Nigerian time inside the Silverbacks Stadium in Atlanta.

Any updates?

Bros, so you mean Naija blood is no longer running in their veins because they were born abroad?

How many home grown players do we have self that is half talented than Dele Alli, Ross Barkley, Sheyi Ojo and David Alaba?


Let us talk about English talented players self. We have not produced what they have produced until now. Hain!

We should be thinking about how to discover talents and not segregating or discriminating btw foreign breed and home breed. That is how we can think of reaching the British's level and not to talk of the Spanish national team.

Icon4s:


Firstly, they are the ones that segregate themselves by saying things like "I feel English blood flowing through my veins", "i have a dream of playing for the three lions" bla-bla-bla. Ola Aina and Adarabioye jst recently pledged their allegiance to England and u expect us to keep hoping on such players? Or we should send Buhari and Saraki to go beg them?

U said no Nigerian player is half as talented as Dele Alli, Ross Barkley & the likes. Are u for real?

Well, Kelechi Iheanacho has the record of the highest ever goals ratio (goals/min) in the entire EPL history. Neither of Dele Alli, Ross Barkley nor Jodon Ibe comes close.

Did you see a player named Alexander Iwobi play for Arsenal last season? A player that sent Theo Walcott and Oxlade Chamberlain permanently to d bench. Dele Alli, Sheyi Ojo, Jodon Ibe and Ross Barkley are nt even Arsenal materials.

In terms of goals scoring did any of Alli,Ojo, Barkley or Ibe come near Odion Ighalo?

You also forget that Victor Moses is a Nigerian


Come 2016/2017 season u will see the likes of Isaac (the beast) Success, Ahmed Musa and Kelechi Nwakali join the Super list of the Super Nigerian talents in the EPL.

Then this David Alaba u are always mentioning are u saying we have never produced a better player than him. The guy is now an Austrian. Forget him and lets focus on the ones we still have the opportunity of switching their natiomality.

In as much as I am happy some of them have pledged allegiance to Nigeria I will nt wail if any of them snubs Nigeria. Simple.
