Samueltemi337:
Osimhen should not near Liverpool


Man City is better

andrewbaba44:


Man city is better ke

Say guardiola like Africans so

The guardiola I know will buy that Fiorentina guy ahead of osimhen ,but anything is possible

charlesemeka85:
I prefer he moves to juve if they table an offer for him

TheSuperNerd:
The keeper was very quick off his lines. I saw the game too. Ejuke went for power instead of trying to pick his spot anyway. But kudos to the goalie.

Heyya all these hype for victor. I hope and believe that he can sustain it because Nigeria is in a dire need for a global superstar. Since Okocha and Kanu retired, we haven’t really produced a global superstar in the mood of Drogba, eto’o, Salah or essien. The likes of Mikel and moses gets an honorable mention, but they didn’t really shine at club level. I don’t understand how Nigeria produced 5 APOY winners in the 1990’s and couldn’t replicate such feat in over 2 decades.
1) Osimehn
2) Ndidi
3) Iheanacho
4) Chuwkwueze. One of you, or all of you has to step up and take that mantle

Mikel Obi

Mikel won trophies collectively but individually, he wasn’t a global superstar in the form of a drogba, okocha, essien, or salah and mane. He is still a legend tho in his own right

Mikel Obi

John Obi Mikel sits pretty in this A-list setup and is regarded as the greatest non-hero of Chelsea’s most successful period, the control variable that let the other players in his decade and one year at Chelsea, make names for themselves.

As a control variable in football, you don’t have so many eye-catching performances which can lead to many underestimating the importance to a team. Most of the time, because of the consistent 7/10 performances, the player becomes a victim of his own success and after a while, the fans get bored of the consistency and almost demand such player to have a bad game so they can appreciate him again.

This was the lot of Mikel Obi in Chelsea time and time again even though he was pivotal in Chelsea’s most successful decade in her history with notable Silverware being two Premier League titles, 4 FA Cups, The UEFA Champions League in 2012, The UEFA Europa League in 2013, The League Cup in 2007 and one community shield.

You can read the article. Very interesting read.

TheSuperNerd:
Yes, I have heard/read same. And it could be implemented indeed.
But doing so MIGHT (A BIG MIGHT) still see Rohr name just 4 Strikers.

Why do I say so? Rohr will have to increase our midfield quota. Then he will have to accommodate Ahmed Musa and Shehu Abdullahi. Musa named in attack means Rohr should name 3 other wing options but what if Rohr decides not to drop any of the other wing options doing so well and invite all four alongside Musa making it 5 wingers. How many Strikers will he now invite? 5 too? Making it 10 forwards as a whole?

That will leave our midfield with only 5 players. And you and I know we have enough to invite up to 7 Midfield players. So how is it gonna be?


I am guessing Rohr might go with one of these...

1. 3 GKs, 8DFs, 6 MFs, 9 FWs.

2. 3GKs, 8DFs, 7 MFs, 8 FWs (more balanced to me and no room for 5 strikers in this one).

3. 3GKs, 8DFs, 5MFs, 10FWs (to accommodate either Five wingers or Five strikers or both).

4. 3GKs, 9DFs, 5 MFs, 9 FWs.

5. 3GKs, 9DFs, 6 MFs, 8 FWs.



...But time will tell as always.

Sorry, I understand this is a Super Eagles thread but I sometimes post football related news from other African teams and prominent national sides. Given the tight race between Ghana and South Africa, I thought it'd be interesting to take a look at their roster going into the next set of CAF WCQ matches.

Odunayaw:
That guy is on his usual period abeg. Is it not in this same thread some have become EPL commentators, pundits arguing with VAR and even the usual dose of politics and tribal noise.

[b]That said. It's usually interesting that SA usually have a local based squad. Is it that their players don't feel they can compete on the bigger stage or the fear of homesickness

Danielnino00:


South African players just don't have the talent it takes to cut it in Europe... A lot of them have gone to play in Europe before,but couldn't cut it... Tau couldn't cut it at Club Brugge or Brighton... Keagan Dolly who was one of the best player from that Sundowns squad that had Tau and Billiat couldn't cut it in France..Lebo Mothiba too couldn't cut it in France... they are many...

If South Africa had the kind of football talent West Africa countries have, they'd be dominating the continent and competing with he big boys at the world stage, cus they definitely have the infrastructure needed to develop the sport.... That's why they dominate the continent in most sports...
