TheGoodJoe:


Which kind of nonsense talk is this? Have you screened to know if they are better talents than them? I hate the mindset of no one is better without seeing others. Biko, who drew up the list?

He saying it would be DIFFICULT doesn't mean there are no chances of other midfielders breaking in.
Mind you, this is Manu Garba talking about his U17 team and not just one novice U17 coach.

After being part of several U17 teams I want to believe he already knows the standards expected of every player in every position. He may also be speaking based on timing.

Let's just watch patiently to see the caliber of Players he will churn out of his factory this time.

What a goal... Bony's return

Victor Boniface's headed goal. I have watched it close to 10 times now and I just imagine what could have been if we had him at the Afcon especially for that final alongside Lookman and Osimhen. Kaaaiiiii... e pain me but next Afcon we will be there๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿฅ‚ Africa go hear am again!


Back to the goal...

See goal here...โคต๏ธ
https://twitter.com/SiaranBolaLive/status/1778621979261841646?t=WR1hTJrLSvYPj1QbqMnZYA&s=19

Boniface took his first goal on return from a long injury layoff like a lad who never was sidelined. That is a difficult angled header to execute. And he executed it despite being flanked by two players behind and in front of him.
Not only did Boniface connect with the ball, he did it in a manner to direct the ball away from Fabianski and not towards him (some strikers would nod that ball straight at Fabianski or clip it but not on target).
He intentionally targeted that bottom right last angle. That was a wickedly superb header. The technique and power was in perfect sync.

Victor Okoh Boniface has indeed returned.

His 17th goal in all competitions, and 26th goal involvement (26 G+A) in 26 games across all competitions.

5 goals and 1 assist in the Europa League alone from 4 starts (6 games overall)

Bony the Beast is BACCCKKKK!!!


I just hope he remains fit for the rest of our world cup qualifiers.

If they play the way they played S.A at the Olympics then Brazil Spain will eat them up.

Gift Monday played well in the World Cup and it's important to start grooming and training them for National first team football.

This is just the qualifiers. They will definitely play more coordinated football at the Olympics.

I am particularly pleased with the way they set up to dominate play, today. This is South Africa, AWC champions, that we just played in Pretoria. We were the better team today.

The Nigerian team has obviously improved from that last AWC while SA are still in the dream land of being the AWC champions

Freshtruth:
Arsenal you have to play
Aston villa Home
Chelsea home
Tottenham away
Manchester utd away
Everton home



Chelsea might be fighting for the conference league, Aston villa top4 position, Tottenham is your Arch rival they will do everything to stop you. Manutd might still have a chance to qualify for the UCL with 2 games left. You might be saying while did I include Everton they have never been relegated before should the relegation goes to the wire and they are involves arsenal might be in trouble

Liverpool have an easy ride but they are not consistent. The Man city we all know will win that remaining 7games with ease trust me and they are looking likely to retain their crown

As far as the EPL is concerned there are no more easy games.
Arsenal has the momentum and is in great form. Their key players are firing. They are winning games convincingly unlike Liverpool and City that manage to scrap wins. This also counts for much in the title race.

Nairaland / General / Re: Based on your birth year, which of these generational groups do you belong? by Icon4s(m): 7:06am On Apr 07
Toks2008:
Generations are typically categorized based on shared birth years and common life experiences. While there can be variations and overlap, here are some commonly recognized generations:

1. Silent Generation (The Builders): Born roughly between 1928 and 1945, the Silent Generation came of age during a period marked by significant global events like World War II and the Great Depression. They grew up in an era of economic hardship, instilling in them values of frugality, resilience, and a strong work ethic. As they matured, many became known for their traditional values, respect for authority, and commitment to duty.

2. Baby Boomers: Born approximately between 1946 and 1964, Baby Boomers represent a demographic surge following World War II. They grew up during a time of unprecedented prosperity and social change. Boomers witnessed and participated in significant cultural movements such as the civil rights era, the feminist movement, the counterculture of the 1960s, and the rise of television as a dominant cultural force. Their experiences shaped values of individualism, ambition, and social activism.

3. Generation X: Born roughly between 1965 and 1980, Generation X came of age in a period of economic uncertainty and social upheaval. They were the first generation to embrace technology as it rapidly evolved, witnessing the advent of personal computers, the internet, and mobile communication. Growing up in an era of shifting family structures, many Gen Xers value independence, adaptability, and scepticism toward institutions.

4. Millennials (Generation Y): Born approximately between 1981 and 1996, Millennials are characterized by their immersion in digital technology and globalization. They witnessed the rise of the internet, social media, and mobile devices, which profoundly influenced their communication styles and worldview. Millennials value diversity, collaboration, and work-life balance. They are often portrayed as socially conscious and environmentally aware, seeking purpose and fulfilment in their careers and personal lives.

5.Generation Z (Zoomers): Born roughly between 1997 and 2012, Generation Z is the first cohort to grow up entirely in the digital age. They are digital natives who are fluent in technology and social media platforms. Raised in an era of rapid change and global connectivity, Zoomers are known for their entrepreneurial spirit, social activism, and concern for social justice and environmental issues.

6.Generation Alpha: Born from 2013 onwards, Generation Alpha includes the children of Millennials and Generation Z. While still young, they are growing up in an increasingly connected and diverse world. Generation Alpha is expected to be highly technologically savvy, creative, and adaptable to change.

These generational labels are often used to analyse social trends, consumer behaviour, and cultural shifts, but it's important to remember that individuals within each generation are diverse and may not fit neatly into stereotypes. Additionally, definitions and boundaries of generations may vary depending on cultural and regional factors.

The all African Games have moved from its Africa's own Olympics status to Africa's interhouse sports.

I remember the 1980s, 90s and even up till Abuja 2003, the publicity was Topnotch. The football event was for U23s and hence used to prepare teams for Olympic football. I remember then, when Nigeria used to parade an all home based U23 from where a few of them would be picked to join the main U23 team.
I don't even know why it is now for the U20s.

Then we watched all football games of the All African Games live! Including other major events like Athletics, and boxing. I remember Mary Onyali severally Crowned the Queen of the Tracks in Africa. We typically waited for the Athletics event to start for Nigeria to close up the medals gap with Egypt and South Africa.

The glamour of the All African Games is gone!

Overall an excellent AFCON outing. For me I had an open mind going into that final game and already prepared for a defeat in case it comes.

Prio to commencement of the tourney I am not sure up to 10% of us here could have predicted we will get to the Semis let alone the final.

The team gave all they have, you cannot give what you don't have. Playing against a host team in a Cup final is not an easy fit. This is Cote D' Ivoire we just played in Abidjan.

Let's just take the positives and continue to build.

Peseiro needs to scout for more midfielders and inject them into the team while also reducing the number of defenders. Thank God we now finally have a goalie, which is one of the major positives of this AFCON outing.

We can build from here as we push towards world cup qualification. 2026 World Cup is just by the corner . Core of this team will still be available then, if we qualify.

I AM PROUD OF THE BOYS
