Truidstarr:US 94 team was not about club level but a team with team work and cohesion with good manager which the present team is lacking ……Stephen Keshi was clubless,Mike Emenalo was a semi pro player,Uche Okafor was playing division two or three,Emeka Ezeugo from India to a club in Denmark,Thompson Oliha was playing for Africa sports. We have five outfield players in US 94 that their club status was poor but the team still did well. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Nomyth:Exactly. Yekini played for Setubal a club about the same size as Chaves and he was the least paid player in the team. The profiling of players based on what they earn is rather embarrassing for a supposed scout. He would have signed Molde's highest paid player instead of Halaand if he was on a scouting duty to Norway. 11 Likes |

On a different note, Mali won bronze at the U17 WC, destroying Argentina by 3 - 0. Perhaps they would have been in the finals if not for the red card they picked up against France. 6 Likes |

Truidstarr:The English premiership was never a rubbish. The league was always in the UEFA clubs top rankings in 80s.Even still maintained second tier status in UEFA rankings between 1985 to 1990 when English clubs were banned from participating in UEFA competitions due to Brussels”Heysel”stadium incidents that led to the death of 39 football fans. This banned was 10 years but later reduced to 6 years for Liverpool and 5 years for other English clubs. Yes you are right on Ajax.Ajax had it so good in the 70s winning three champions league cup just like Nottingham Forest that won champions league cup twice and super cup,but Ajax came back strongly in 1995 and 1996 but fizzled out again so I will never rate them alongside Real Madrid,Barcelona,Milan in the 90s who are dominant clubs. 1 Like

villagereporter:I will not call a league that is very attractive,well structured with real financial value a hype league. Pls compare South Africa league with Nigeria league,the talents are here but developmentally South Africa ahead,so is not about hype but what you have on ground that makes it attractive. Pls check out EPL clubs in the last 10 years in UEFA competitions…..yes I brought Cafu statement on EPL for us to discuss,especially for Kokmne attention….Cafu statement showed that EPL is all about hype and is affecting Brazilian national team but big question how many Brazil national team players are playing in EPL,so his statement is debatable.

Truidstarr:Yes Oga Truid,I got your point but just trying to tell people more about English football in the 80s to 90s which you said was not really rated. Yes on eagles,Super eagles 90-95 can also be traced to Afcon 88 team,though managed by Hoener but Westerhoff came in late 89 and brought real developmental changes to the team,the success was seen in 1994 team but do we really have big players?No but have a team of manager and players who are determined to achieve greatness….just check US94 team and their club sides,fact Mutiu Adepoju was with Racing Santander in Segunda |

Kelechi Nwakali named man of the match in gd chaves vs Vizella match According to allnigeriasoccer.com, nwakali was named man of the match. In fact, he was everywhere. read below. Those who are saying he has not improved in his new team need to eat their words. Only God knows the future. Besides how can someone not rate the Portuguese league? Have you heard of Eusobia, diego jotta, luis figo etc. 'Was (almost) everywhere' - Portuguese media laud 2015 Fifa U17 WC Golden Ball winner Nwakali after MotM display Published: December 02, 2023 'Was (almost) everywhere' - Portuguese media laud 2015 Fifa U17 WC Golden Ball winner Nwakali after MotM display Super Eagles midfielder Kelechi Nwakali was chosen as the Man of the Match after his outstanding performance during Chaves' 2-1 win over FC Vizela at the Estádio Municipal Eng.º Manuel Branco Teixeira on Friday night. In what was probably his best performance since arriving at Chaves, the 2015 Fifa U17 World Cup Golden Ball winner showed for the ball at every opportunity and pulled the strings in midfield to inspire his side to their third win of the season in the Liga Portugal. Samuel Essende put the visitors in front inside twelve minutes but Héctor Hernández restored parity as the game edged towards the half hour mark, before Jô scored what proved to be the game-winning goal two minutes into the second half. Nwakali registered a game-high three key passes, completed two take-ons, won one foul for his team and was accurate in 86.1 percent of his passes. Portuguese sports daily A Bola has lauded the former Golden Eaglets and Flying Eagles captain for his performance against FC Vizela, "In the core emerged the true lungs of the team: Kelechi . The Nigerian was (almost) everywhere and demonstrated that he has the ability to give and sell," the newspaper wrote. Nwakali was the joint-best rated player at 7, along with Leandro Sanca, Jô Batista and Héctor Hernández. The former Arsenal starlet has appeared in twelve matches in the top flight this season, registering two assists. Ifeanyi Emmanuel allnigeriasoccer.com 1 Like |

My prediction Come back in February to check this Afcon 2023 winner will be either Morocco or Egypt Mo Sallah’s last chance Especially after losing 2 finals 2017 & 2022 Nigeria can win in 2025 if we get our acts together right after the tournament We have a formidable strike force We just need the right coaches, management & technical crew NFF should adopt Keshi’s 2012 preparation model for the Afcon 2013 win This should commence immediately after this tournament ends in February |

Kog45: You're very correct. Specially about branding. Maybe the president should get involved if the minister and NFF are bereft of ideas to improve our league. 1) First of all should be signing a lucrative TV deal for live coverage. 2) Create a quality standard as the barest minimum must be upheld; like quality stadiums, quality training facility, medical personnel maybe even a team plane. 3) If any owner can't afford to maintain the standard, he'll have to sell the club to the highest bidder or get relegated let all clubs in the top flight be owned by real billionaires or public companies. If we can get these 3 things right then it is finished. More foreign players will get signed by our clubs and the league would earn millions of naira weekly from advertising alone. Foreign sponsors would start knocking, eager to negotiate with clubs, shirt sponsors etc. and our clubs will start making nice profits and automatically increase the salary cap. Nigerians can be rash and mean but once we notice you put the smallest effort, we would always go all out in support. It even goes beyond sports cos can you imagine the thousands of people that will get employed? from physiotherapist to cooks and even ball boys. I'm no economist but I don't think it's farfetched to say our currency would appreciate if all the above can somehow come to pass |
