As The 25th Edition Of A.C.N. Gets Under Way, What Are Your Expectations?
African Cup of Nations Egypt 2006, kicks off. Can the Super Eagles Deliver this time?
Expectations are high, that Super Eagles of Nigeria looks good for the trophy, they must have to brush aside some difficult oppositions. My question is can the Super Eagles win their third African Nations Cup Trophy?

The super Eagles can win the nations cup given the calibre of players currently in camp, the qualifying stage will be tough but if they can try to qualify from the group with no major injuries then they will coast to victory.

I'm betting on the new players to deliver Nigeria. They'll have to try hard to win

Forget it. The best they can get is still the third place.

lets face it this year every team has an equal chance gone are the days of small teams ..........we have not prepared well no friendly match the team will play together against a true opposition for the first time during the nations cup proper its the same old story and if we fail to qualify they will start sacking coaches anyway we seem to always deliver when things dont go well we still have a good chance  does boys can deliver i only wish we could for once do things the right way |

They've definitely got players who are capable of winning the tournament but lack the technical competence. I wouldn't bet on nigeria winning.

Hey guys lets keep our fingers crossed. I strongly believe on these boys for Glory.
We should be patriotic at least. If the boys are focussed, and injury free i see them
winning the trophy.

The super eagles can win anything, didn't you see the way we trashed Algreria in the world cup qualification The only thing is our players are too stubborn take for instance Yakubu, now. And how okocha was acting during the qualification.

Does anyone know the lineup of the super eagles team? Like which guys are playing??

I believe that we have what it takes to win the trophy, The boys know what is at stake, and I know they will give their best.
Lets just watch anyway.

Our boys are good and ready. I am in agreement with only those who believe the cup will be back, as for the rest ...  |

we have the boys no doubt ,but can they deliver is the question well we wud give the support but no smaller teams any more, when likes of angola togo and others in world cup and nigeria, cameroun staying at home just expect a tough nations cup
|

Yeah, I think we've got the boys no doubt, but their delivering is the sole source of worry for most Nigerians. Our group is undeniably a difficult one and a lot has got to be put in if we must progress to the next stages of the competition, before worrying about teams like Cameroon and Ivory Coast. Or even Tunisia and Egypt.
I can only hope we deal Ghana and Senegal severe blows, particularly Senegal and then move on with an equally grim determination to win the tournament, having failed to qualify for the World Cup.

we've got the potential, no doubt but i guess we'll just have to wait and see them play on monday for us to properly assess them as a team.
i really wish and pray we win. its been so long since we lifted that trophy and i think its long over-due.
all the best, super eagles!!!

I will be very happy if we win the nations cup cos players like Aiyegbeni are already waiting to talk if we are eliminated before the final

You are right cursing won't do anything wether he's team loses or not he still gets payed way more than I'll ever make in my whole life (God Forbid). The only way to teach him a lesson is for the eagles to do well in this nations cup to prove to him that we never needed him. Good luck Eagles
