naptu2: naptu2: Arsenal are statistically the most successful club in English women's football, holding the records for most titles won in each domestic competition they have played in. The club have won 15 League titles, 14 FA Women's Cup, 5 FA WSL Cups, 10 Women's Premier League Cups, 5 FA Women's Community Shield, and are the only English club to win the UEFA Women's Champions League. In the 2006–07 season, the club became the first in the history of women's football to achieve the continental European sextuple. |

CoolAmbience: Still the most stupid thing ever. Shows you don’t do your history. Anyway kids will be kids. Yea Mikel is Nigeria’s greatest player too because of champions league, premier league and under 20 golden ball. You’re a complete waste pipe. You can’t even use your brain pipe. Look at what you said pipe, does that even make any sense to you? Even messi is not Argentina’s greatest player despite all his everything for Barca and 4 finals for Argentina still not the greatest player to wear their jersey. But you’re an oponu with no common sense. Playing in arsenal or Barca or wherever the Bleep else does not make you the greatest player in your country. It’s as stupid as saying the greatest player in a certain club is great because of what he did at another club. Listen to your retard.ed self. Wtf is champions league semifinal? Why are some black people like you so stvpid? It’s only a black person who is also a retard that will make such a stupid statement as “the first african woman to reach champions league semifinal”, if so why is finidi George not also your greatest player ever because he won the champions league too? What the Bleep does it mean to be the first african to play a competition white people play in? Therefore you are the greatest? So is figuredo that once played in nigerian league the greatest Angolan player ever because he played in a foreign league? You are super useless upstairs. In your family the first person to fly abroad is the greatest too I think. What kind of compound fool.ery is this? So the other people that played in the Barca squad they are their country’s greatest if they’ are the first person from their country to win champions league...right Dumfvck. |

Wolfeye:Dear deplotable, low IQ sub-slowpoke, Ronaldo already surpassed Eusebio as Portugal's greatest ever even without winning the Euros, you utter nincompoop! Oshoala has even won three Nations Cup for Nigeria so your dumb "fAiLuRe To RePlIcAtE fOr YoUr CoUnTrY mEaNs BuLlShIt" horseshit doesn't even apply to her. She's Nigeria's and Africa's greatest ever female footballer, deal with it. Won laurels for both clubs and country. But you can keep crying though. |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by Wolfeye: 8:50am On May 23, 2021 |
It’s only an african and a Nigerian specifically that will say use abroad metrics to judge country greatness. You’ll hear the most stupid shit like “first person to play in English league”, “first bla to score a goal in a foreign league”, “first bla to play in two countries”, “first bla to be mentioned by one white analyst nobody gives a fvck about” because you have been taught to always think from a position of inferiority. Else how the Bleep is this even a thing? You’re saying a player is the greatest in a country but 70% of the things you call achievement were done playing for another entity? “Champions league” “semifinal” “liverpool” “Barca”. Lmfaooo negro phools. |

Wolfeye:Dear fucking sub-slowpoke, Oshoala has won the same number of African footballer of the year Nkwocha has won (4), or were you born genetically dumb? Your Nkwocha that only played in utterly mediocre and bum leagues compared to one who has played for three of Europe's biggest clubs, and even won the highest goalscorer in China, which has fantastic female footballers? I don't care about Egypt or who they choose as their greatest ever. But if not Salah, then it will definitely be Mohammed AbouTrika. And guess what? Even AbouTrika won 5 Champions League with/for Al Ahly, coupled with winning 2 Nations Cup with/for Egypt. Where's Nkwocha's Champions League trophy? Monumental asshat! 1 Like |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by Newton85: 9:02am On May 23, 2021 |
Wolfeye:That your genetically dumb self even asked how many people will remember Oshoala, the most popular African female footballer ever, ever played football, should have been the red flag to avoid giving your -5 IQ an audience. Colossal clown! |

Asisat Oshoala is only the second African woman to score in 2 senior World Cups. The first was Rita Nwadike. This is her goal at the 2015 World Cup. naptu2: And this is her goal at the 2019 World Cup (it was nominated for goal of the tournament). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XQGawByKgE |

Wolfeye: See idiot o! Wetin Oshoala don win na him you dey cry for. As if what Akide achieved wasn't a team effort too. You are so stupid that you kept contradicting yourself. Will giving Akide the award make her former teammates at club level receive the same awards in their various continents / nations? Let's leave their clubs, make a list of Akide first feats in Africa and let's put side by side with Oshoala's. slowpoke! |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by Wolfeye: 9:45am On May 23, 2021 |
CoolAmbience: who is talking about akide. Nkwocha is the GOAT. Akide close second. Oshoala could be 3rd. Anyway the truth shall still stand tall after all Is said and done. Same way some retards used to argue Kanu was greater than jay with these same metrics...and time has proven them all fools. For Nkwocha’s career to be this long gone and still as green...that should tell you something even if there is no sense in your existence. Oshoala is great, no debate in that but “greater” than Nkwocha? LMFAO time will tell when it’s all said and done. |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by naptu2: 9:52am On May 23, 2021 |
Hahahahahahahahahaha That guy above knows absolutely nothing about football and it's obvious that he is a little kid! |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by CoolAmbience(m): 9:55am On May 23, 2021 |
Wolfeye: Create your own award and give to Nkwocha. Person dey hold you? Abeg, leave Kanu and Okocha matter. That's not what we are discussing. You never understand Women football na Men own you wan understand.... Na by long career? Abeg, make we hear word. |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by Wolfeye: 10:06am On May 23, 2021 |
CoolAmbience: It’s not by long career it’s by facts. These facts go by metrics. You cannot be shifting the goal post to suit narratives. If you say oshoala is Nigeria’s greatest what it means is that mikel is also Nigeria’s greatest. It also means Salah is Egypt’s greatest and also means Essien is Ghana’s greatest. This also means modric is Croatia’a greatest and etc.... Basically the most exponential player should be the greatest LMFAO. But you see the funny thing with time is, it will always tell. You cannot find two jay jay’s in the world, it’s just okocha. You will never find another Nigerian player more talked about since hanging their boots than jay jay. The longer your retirement lasts the sweeter the memory and the greater you become. There are strikers with more awards and more accolades than de lima ronaldo but de Lima ronaldo will always be de Lima ronaldo. Everybody knows eto’o played for Barca but you see that name Mboma even you Nigerians fear it till date. Greatness isn’t forced and doesn’t hide either...it’s just there waiting for time to reveal it. When Oshoala retires and spends as much time as Nkwocha outside the game and is still as fondly remembered then we might have a genuine discussion . For now I’ll just rest and allow Twitter trend children enjoy. Nice day. |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by CoolAmbience(m): 10:19am On May 23, 2021 |
Wolfeye: When you done with your epistles.... Go and collect the award from Oshoala and give to whoever you prefer. Why you wan rest...come and continue writing essays na... Na you sabi football pass... |

robosky02:Lionel Messi is still behind Diego Maradona in rankings at Argentina. Don't ask me why cos if you do, you are still a baby. Nkwocha, Slide et al are tops on the ranking compared to Oshoala in homeland Naija. That voting is inconsequential. |

OkoNDOoBo: Can't rule out George Weah |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by PAtoGCFR2034: 2:01pm On May 23, 2021 |
CoolAmbience: He's trying to correct you. Messi is much more successful as footballer than Maradona and also better (in my opinion) but ask Argentines who their greatest player. Its not about what you did for your club. Are you a fan of all those clubs ? It's not about best player. It's about GREATEST player. Neymar is a better player than Ronaldo Lima. But Brazilians still rank Neymar below Pele, Ronaldo, Romario etc in terms of greatness. And what you posted, bolded above, is incorrect. Nkwocha was voted African Women's Footballer of the Year in 2004, 2005, 2010 and 2011 by Confederation of African Football (CAF). |

PAtoGCFR2034: Who is Nigeria's greatest male footballer? |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by naptu2: 2:15pm On May 23, 2021 |
I have been watching female football from close up since it was introduced as a demonstration sport at the 1989 National Sports Festival in Lagos. I watched every single game of that tournament live. I have closely monitored the Super Falcons since it was created (in fact my father had a hand in the creation of that team) and I can tell you that some of the comments here are very funny. Very funny indeed. |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by naptu2: 2:16pm On May 23, 2021 |
I'm just waiting for someone to answer my question, who is Nigeria's greatest male footballer? |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by PAtoGCFR2034: 2:31pm On May 23, 2021 |
naptu2: I'm gonna have to pick somebody from the 1994 squad. Rashidi Yekini . Even though his career nosedived immediately after 1994 but what he did before then still stands Unfortunately Kanu did not win at the senior level . If he had, added to the 1993 U17 and 1995 olympic gold would have made him undisputed. But everybody has their opinions. Some rate Kanu's performance against Brazil as greatest Nigeria's moment. I remember how I marched in the streets till after midnight |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by OkoNDOoBo: 2:32pm On May 23, 2021 |
PAtoGCFR2034:ode, I know roger milla, abedi Pele, kalusha bywala, hossam hassan, fofana hadji e.t.c But none has match eto personal achievements for club and country. Not even George weah. Geroge only have a great season during his time at ac milan that earn him balon d'or .after that he lost his form. Eto played at the top level from beginning to the end of his career. He was once 3rd best behind fifa best player of the year behind ronaldinho and lampard He was at mallorca best, barcelona 3rd best after messi and iniesta, he was inter best player in his first season, he won and scored in back to back champions league finals e.t.c lead cameroun to olympic Gold, confederation cup final, 3 caf nations cup trophies, 4 African best player of the year,highest goal scorer in Afcon e.t.c too many too touch. As for asisat and nkwocha comparison it is even more irritating. Cos perpetual reigned when female football was not competitive and less have less numbers of countries participating in Africa. Asisat have more career goals, personal achievements than perpetual .not even a debate 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by naptu2: 2:39pm On May 23, 2021 |
PAtoGCFR2034: So why is it Yekini and Kanu? Why not Teslim Thunder Balogun, Bulldozer Amusa Shittu, the Wonder Boy Paul Hamilton or Mathematical Segun Odegbami? Why is Pele the greatest Brazilian player and not Garrincha the Little Bird? Why is Maradona Argentina's greatest ever player and not Mario Kempes? Do you know what Kempes did at the 1978 World Cup? |
Re: Oshoala Voted Nigeria’s Greatest Female Player Of All Time by PAtoGCFR2034: 2:58pm On May 23, 2021 |
OkoNDOoBo: Ok you know that Roger Milla took his country Cameroun to the world cup quarter finals, you know George Weah was the Fifa world footballer, Ballon d'or winner and African player of the century and yet you still think Eto is the greatest African player. I'm not sure exactly what greatness means to you kid. |
