We have to schedule a game against those midgets it's time for payback for what they did to us in the late 2010's

It's not about starting from the bench or not.. It's about proper servicing. The boy has proven over and over again that with a right pass, just leave the ball with him and he will surely deliver. He needs to get good passes over and over again in games for him to deliver a lot of goals. All top 9's all around the world rely on passes to score. Even though they may miss some, at least they get up to 4 key passes in a game and try as much as possible to convert at least one. In Napoli, Osimhen has to make sure he scores with every single pass because in an entire game, he may get only one good pass

If Osimhen continues to work hard, he can reach 10 Serie A goals and I'd consider that a good season given his troubles

He also has to learn how to position himself properly like today but with all due respect, it's only his 1st season in Italy and at 22 he has more opportunities to get it right. World class goal today for me.

And his confidence has gotten to the level that he will go and drag freekick. I think he should be Leicester's freekick taker when the kick is just outside the box,to the right.

This is so apt though it's undeniable that he was over exuberant with his dribbles.

Without Okocha, I doubt we would have won the 94 AFCON, he was the X-Factor in that team. Without him ( and Amokachi) we wouldn't have gotten past the defending champions in the Semis. He was the ball holder and joggler who starved the Ivoriens of the ball in the midfield which greatly frustrated them.
He did the same in the final against the Zambians and the moment he was removed, the Zambians took over, over ran our midfield and looked like the were going to get the equalizer.

Even Pele said he was enjoying the match till Okocha was removed.

Let's give him the credit he deserves.

The ease at which the team transited to attack was baffling. That was due to Okocha's skill.

Okocha was a pointless dribbler pre-98 not until 2000 Afcon that we started seeing end product and by the time the whole world would notice he was already clocking in on 30 years of age
God bless you bro,
Keshi said in an interview that when they want to play a crucial game, they meet with the coach and tell him point blank they did not want okocha to play bcus of his pointless dribbles and wayward shots.

I dont think you realized what those midgets did to us in the late 2000's. Smashed us 4 - 1 and called it brenford massacre, beat us again 2 1 in 2008 ANC and labeled us "super chickens" abegi all we're saying is give us GHANA in the final round of world cup. Generational talent that SE is witnessing and going by previous trajectory, it might only last for few years

Pele of 1966, 1970 in today's football is at best an iniesta and not even close to messi if we want to judge it that way. But shouldnt we ask "were they in the same era?

[b]Crystal Palace Eze Hints At Super Eagles Switch- I Have A Good Relationship With President Of Nigeria FA[b]
Owngoalnigeria

Crystal Palace midfielder Ebere Eze has refuse to rule out a switch to Nigeria in the nearest future despite initially turning down them down for England.

Eze trained with the Super Eagles in 2017 during a training camp in London but two years later when he was officially called up to the senior team he declined and instead picked England.

He was part of the English U21 team that failed to make it past the group stages at the recently concluded European Championship. He is however open to the idea of playing for Nigeria in the future.

President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Amaju Pinnick has twice met with the dribbling ace and now Eze says his relationship with Pinnick is still intact.

“ A lot happened when I made the decision to play for England and my discussion with the president of the Nigeria FA went well. It’s something you never close the door on. I have a very good relationship with Mr Pinnick”, he said when quizzed on if he could yet switch back to Nigeria.

Andrew come here, what do you think about this lenglet of a guy?
For me I think he is so overrated and a full blown carpenter. Whenever he is playing, he is either collecting yellows or he is gifting opponent penalties and you hardly see barca keep clean sheets whenever he plays. He doesn't marshall barca defense like Diaz does at man city, neither is his presence or absence felt like Kompany of old. To me he is just another Christiansen or Lindelof


To you he's like Christensen, wrong comparison pal. Christensen is way above and doesn't cause penalties nor does he make mistakes. infact you don't know what to say, just zip it.

Some may call it ass licking, but I really feel the SE needs this guy. Imagine a midfield trio of Ndidi, Aribo and See, with Iwobi moving to the left wing, Chukwueze on the right, Iheanacho supporting Osimhen in Attack.
Remove Iheanacho and bring on Sadiq later in the match to pair Osimhen because of his creativity or better still bring on Moffi to pair Osimhen when facing big for nothing african opponents

Oliseh and ejaria are there. Kelechi bwakali is witnessing a resurgence. We can try tosin kehinde of randers. He wants to play for us and does not need to be begged.
We are short of options in attacking midfield but we can't keep waiting for him. Let us get someone else.
By the time he changes his mind someone else might have grabbed their chance. It's taking too long for him and other options are open to us
Oliseh, nwakali or any one might get a chance and simply impress and make us forget about him. He needs to make up his mind on time
