Racism is now acceptable because of people like Trump and co

Go to facebook people are no longer hiding their racist tendencies, I was on facebook and a racist topic came up and I was surprised at the number of people that supported racist ideologies

I fear for Black Americans if Trump wins 2020

Haha. Bros, the way we're celebrating this "victory" reminds me of the way we celebrated after beating Argentina 4-2 in a meaningless friendly. Well, we all know how that worked out for us when it actually counts.

That's my boy! I was screaming his name throughout the game yesterday!! It only took me a few games to conclude that he's the real deal, and I promptly recommended him for Super Eagles. Most of y'all are coming late to the party grin

One thing I'd commend Chukwueze for is his consistent hard work. He was tracking back and passing forward if he comes to the eagles, our white Onigbinde will bench. Such electric pace, he was a menace to the Barcelona defence. He did against Madrid and repeated again against Barça. Teams with good scout would key from his potential.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2023, 2025 And 2026 World Cup by Icon79(m): 1:17pm On Apr 03, 2019
100% agree with that, exactly

I usually agree with tbaba but I gotta differ with him on this one. Apples to apples, the 1994 team is better than the 1998 team. Don't get me wrong, the 1998 team was loaded with talent but they were missing some critical pieces, like in the goalkeeping department, and some important players were carrying injuries as well (Amuneke, Kanu, etc). The 1994 team was the most balanced Super Eagles team in recent memory. Unfortunately, inexperience cost them against Italy.

CHUKWUEZE...in my opinion should alternate between u23 and Super Eagles....He has shown consistency so far and he is FEARLESS....

And i saw a new development in him yesterday...HE WAS USING HIS RIGHT FOOT...Even took a shot with it

exactly boy would be just unplayable once he masters the use of his right foot. a lot of defenders monitoring him will always want to mark him by pushing him on his right leg thinking it's weaker but that could turn out to be samu's deadliest weapon

Ehen who in the current set up can hold his own again st Eguavoen, Iroha, Ukechukwu and even Nwanu. In those days it was tough for African players to get into the biggest sides in Europe. Those were the days of max 3 foreign players including EU countries in a team.I know you will counter me. But that was a great side from defense to attack and even bench sef. No wonder we were ranked 5th in the world at some point.

Agreed without reservation

Such team like Villarreal will be top 10 in the epl table

Villarreal will not beat Fulham.

And certainly Derby County, Middlesbrough and Swansea will finish them off.

A team that struggled against Glasgow Rangers.

You are dreaming wake up.

Seria B is on the level of English League one.

Villarreal is in Europe and in the later stages of the Europa league. Fulham will not get this far. They will be beaten handsomely by Villarreal.

Serie B is far better than league 1.

Since when does celebrating on your own justify racist chants? Blacks seriously need to think long and hard before dedicating their international careers to these Caucasian nations. Imagine sweating it out week in and out just for your fellow countrymen to hurl racist chants at you


Welcome to Europe.

If you cannot take the heat don't go in the kitchen.

Leonardo Bonucci is a RACIST BIGOT, it's not what they say in public that matters it's what they think and do.

Out of the depths of the heart the mouth � speaks.

Because they don't call you names doesn't mean they aren't racist.

Darren Moore former manager of West Bromwich was sacked with the club in fourth position in the Championship. And his white inexperienced unqualified assistant given the job, what do you think is going on.

In England children of West African origin have a higher educational achievement and grading than white middle to upper class children.

At university level our children are top of the scale at all levels as soon as they leave and assessment is no longer substantive and objective. They drop to the bottom and with thier first class degrees are unable to secure employment commensurate with thier qualifications.

After a few years the white guys at the bottom of the class are now your bosses.


This behaviour transcends football it's just that in football people can express verbally what they think and believe on the terraces.

real Madrid have lost 8 games in laliga this season but they comfortably sit at 3rd and might even end up in 2nd... Meanwhile, spurs Chelsea man utd and arsenal who have lost between 6-11 games this season and are battling it out for top4 .
Villarreal are probably the first big laliga team to be battling relegation at this stage of the season..
Former premiered league and champions league winners like Blackburn, Nottingham forest and Aston Villa are in the championship.

The laliga is only tactically better than the EPL... If laliga was the best league in the world it'd be making far more than the EPL especially when u consider that two of the world GOATS played together there....

Those who watch and invest in football league have different targets. if u want exciting football, follow the laliga..but if u want suspense and all round entertainment, follow the EPL...

I think most people prefer the later....

Serie B is far better than league 1.

Fulham and the English championship are far better than the Scottish premier league. Which like Seria A and La Liga is essentially a 1or 2 club league.

Rangers will not survive in the Championship they would be in league one.

Over two legs Villareal struggled with Rangers.

I know players who struggled in non league and found it easy to walk into Seria C.

Seria B is FAR BEHIND the championship financially speaking. It's more on the level of League one.

Players follow the £££ not just the style of play. And the more money the mire quality you can attract to suit the rigours and demands if your particular league.

A class example Sadiq Umar TOTAL and COMPLETE quintessential " Wasteman " in Glasgow Rangers but now according to many here " balling " in Perugia.

I rest my case.

Coefficient measurement is heavily weighted on performance in the Champion league. As a result Barcelona and Real Madrid push La Liga up the rankings ladder.

Otherwise EPL is on aggregate SUPERIOR.
