Maduka drops a cross everybody goes ‘he’s too shaky, drop him’. Uzoho parries ball like a rookie but nobody is saying he’s shaky or lacks confidence. It’s just a mindset not football related

maidaboi:
Yusuf and Dennis both start in Belgium and England

safarigirl:


Exactly

People need to reevaluate why they think one person is better than the other. That Uzoho's parrying was worse than Maduka's slip, perhaps, why the studio analysts put a heavy spotlight on it that day, but we no too hear anything about am for this thread.

If say na Maduka now, everything would have been different.

semid4lyfe:



I have sent you to cool off for a while.

Enjoy.

I think its undermining to Africa's biggest football brand to see business men still doing this so called "money motivation" since forever. I hate it, no matter the intention.

Can't something wisely be done so these kind of announcements stop altogether. We aren't playing for glory with money motivation. The late MKO did this too and it caught on as far as i remember. Does more harm than good for senior team compared to the cadet teams.

These men can channel their cash to help football generally than these announcements.

Anyway, Pooja has come to report Kelechi to us with his picture

I'm kind of in the middle on things here, but can I have some input from you guys?

No , you use your little power to oppress people who disagree with your opinion. You are not a man of justice! You are very corrupt just like your countrymen. The guy you banned didn't break any rule....simply telling you you sound like a blind man is not offence if you couldn't ban handles calling people "crack heads" , "edu" ,"ezi" and these were reported to you.

You are corrupt and bias, semid!

back to his time in the Netherlands, hope you know nobody rates a coach based on a season of football? DiMatteo won UCL with Chelsea but today no serious club will hire him, Alan Pardew was once named EPL coach of the season, almost qualified Newcastle for the champions league had their highest finish in a long time but today I don’t think any serious club will go for him. As we have one season wonder players we also have one season wonder coaches, you have to be consistent to be properly rated as a coach

Anyway, I just heard that Maduka posted on Twitter, and I will now be going over there to engage in my favourite pastime of reading women simp for men and men ratio them.

Perhaps, some men on this thread need to get out of their feelings and try that. I always aim to maximize my entertainment from football, on and off the pitch

Mujtahida:

KC might just regard it as a trifle but I understand Pooja's feelings for not being acknowledged.

Papi85:
Later we go Dey cry racism and discrimination but na we worst pass

Some are not even happy that maduka is good looking

Mujtahida:

Maduka is solid at Sparta. Why does he fluster when in the GWG. They should get him a psychologist abeg. He has the frame to make an excellent goalkeeper. We should feel safe with him between the sticks

Subzero47:


You talk so much about Maduka for someone who claims she is not interested in him

andrewbaba44:


Argentina vs Nigeria since which year ?

We should go and recall Bryan idowu abeg

The only reason I posted that, is as a follow-up to what Metal said, to tease him and people that think I cannot talk about somebody without being interested in them. I literally just catch cruise on this thread, as if I am gisting with friends

If I was talking this much about Uzoho, will you think I was interested in him?

All the people that have been talking about Nwakali, are they interested in him? Abi there is a rule about which Super Eagles player we can talk about?

In fact, everyday, from today, I will talk about Maduka on this thread.

Danielnino00:


You are found of using this racism term in the wrong contest.. Which race is Maduka now?


You that constantly attack our local coaches to the point of swearing that you will stop watching the super eagles game if one of them become the manager, are you a racist?
You threw all sort of demeaning words at Eguavon and accused him of wanting to kick out foreign borns from the team, are you a racist?
Chill abeg... Everybody is entitled to his or her opinion.
Left to me, Maduka hasn't shown in anyway to be better than Uzoho in the GWG..The number one shirt should be open for grab for both of them or any other decent goalkeeper that may emerge sooner...

Icon4s:


Nne abeg who be this Pooja? We don't know him here in Republic of Zamfara

safarigirl:



I am honestly tired of putting on a cape for Maduka, but if you want to give the defense props for his clean sheet against Egypt, we also need to give the same defense knocks for the goal Sudan scored, because man was flying home free with that clean sheet, if Aina had not unnecessarily pulled at a jersey and stepped on a foot


The Maduka hate train is now looking like it exists for a non-football reason. Perhaps, if his looks were closer to Uzoho's, there would be more faith in his game.

Papi85:
one thing you ought to know is that I am not a sentimental person and will never be one, that’s my nature

I say things the way I see them but not to entice nor gain likes from anyone.

My reason for insulting our local coaches here on a regular is because of their nature of egunje and floading the apex team of this country with half baked players which is clear to everyone here

I was a strong rohr supporter but when thing got so bad I criticized him and supported his sacking.

I am a huge aribo fan and was called papa aribo here when he first came to the scene but also criticized him when ever he had a bad game even to an extend told people to stop calling me papa aribo that I hv disowned him

I never supported the coming of eguavoen when he was brought to replace rohr but after just 2 games in the on going afcon I made a confession here that he has turned me to a fan over night and that even if the team doesn’t win the competition as tipped by every one both here and the whole of Africa currently that he should continue with the good work he has done so far

Nwakali that I am his number 1 critic here and even said that I can’t wait for him to start against guinea so that many will see how weak he is as a midfielder had a decent game during the encounter and I posted that he has been good so far but still needs to work on his off the ball work

Baba like I said I am not a sentimental person but a realest who say things the way they are at the same way doesn’t shy away from admitting my wrong

dkay51:


He would have had a clean sheet yes, but it wasnt like he made 10 saves in the game. Your preference for him is also bias because you can't back it up with stats in the GWG, so don't cry hatred when people fall heads over heels for him.

Danielnino00:


You aren't a sentimental person, but the people criticizing Maduka's performance in the GWG are?
I don't think the general opinion about Maduka is that he is terrible..He just hasn't been convincing enough, and that's the truth.. Uzoho hasn't been much convincing either... If we are to say Uzoho should be either of Maduka by virtue of the status of the club they play for, then that would be sheer hypocrisy because Uzoho was playing for a better club when Rohr went to fetch Maduka from the German fourth division...
Both of them still have time to develop and get better.. In a year or two, we should be clear on who is better...But for now, they are more or less the same...

Papi85:
I think those who hate or under rates maduka is doing that based on reasons best known to them

He is not among the best in the world or in Africa but the best we can boast of. Also many easily forgets that he is just 21 abi 22 and as a goal minder will get better as the day goes. He has improved massively since debuting for the team by rising from German lower leagues to the eirdvisie, was voted best keeper in Holland’s top flight, became the super eagles number 1 and recently signed for an epl team. This signifies that he is improving and has potentials to be better in the nearest future

Rohr picked him as his first choice for a reason which many thought was based on sentiment because of his German lineage but now we have a new coach who see all the keepers in training since camp resumed who also picked him as his undisputed number 1 just because he is the best we can boast of currently

I bet you guys that this much maligned lad will grow to become the best in Africa in no distant time and may turn out to be the first Nigerian goal keeper to feature in the epl

Ebuehi was better than Aina during the world cup Aina didn't even make the world cup squad he even gave a cheap penalty during one of our friendlies


so rest

When people said Akpeyi was shaky and should not be started again, nobody questioned what he looked like or what exactly we were seeing, he was also getting accolades in SA league at the same time o. Its not club performance that matters here, we'd expect that you'd replicate same in the GWG but if thats not the case you might have to step aside.
