MC Galaxy abi paper galaxy... Relax man, they are not players, they are carpenters wearing jerseys and parading themselves as players.

We are only trying to help you identy them....you're welcome.

We have a list for the Nigerian, CIV and Ghana branch of carpenters but you didn't see that I guess. You've become the ultimate defender and watchman for South Africa on nairaland and believe me you suck at it.

We have your watchman cousin from UK here on this thread. You urgently need to contact him on tips to be an effective watchman and defender of the southies. Udo!!!


Chai, See finishing.

In that vein, it is also a possibility that Osimhen will flop if he comes to Tottenham . That's komekn's point. In fact, that reminds me.....Osimhen hasn't scored in his last 4 consecutive ligue 1 matches. I hope the flopping hasn't started already.

Abeg, na joke I dey ooo cheesy grin

But seriously, Osimhen needs a long rest and its affecting his game a little. That's the reason we need a deputy for him in the SE. Unfortunately, even Onuachu is a Professor of Carpentry

Please if you have an opinion give it.

But don't use me as a reference point, now tell me where I said Osimhen will flop in the EPL.

It seems you are scared to criticise the fans favourite here,

Many players have played in the week long international break. And immediately started for thier clubs, they didn't need a rest.

Why would Osimhen need a rest he is not injured.

Sorry, I used you to make a point. I have learnt my lessons:

1. You're unstable in your opinions and you use big words to cover up your lies.

2. You are so quick to defend anything English even if they aren't Nigerians or even blacks. An English man can hardly do any wrong in your eyes and you go as far as writing epistles to prove your pointless points.

This will be the first and last I will ever mention or quote you bro. You ain't worth my precious seconds. Good luck defending mediocrity. grin grin

Lol who said osimhen will tear it up at Barca or Bayern ? Not me ,you haven’t been following my comments

Yes Kane will not flop,but hope you know Michael Owen was not the same at Madrid as he was at Liverpool ?

Anyway I said he might go and flop but your ear don stand as Na British player ,I am sure if it’s another player you won’t come here to defend him

Am sure you never expected hazard to have a slow Madrid start
Owen's case is a bit different. He had Raul, R9, and Morientes ahead of him yet Perez went and signed him. That move pissed Camacho off.
Owen still had the best goals per minute record in Madrid that season if I'm not mistaken.
Kane sef I'm looking at him with one eye... This last injury he had has taken something from him Sha... Can't put my finger on it.

Please remove Benni McCarthy and Steven Pienaar from the list. Those guys ain't carpenters.

However, you can add these highly skilled carpenters to the list.

Themba Zwane
Tokelo Ranti
Sibusiso Vilakazi
Reneilwe Letsholonyane (fine rasta man)
Anele Ngcongca
Matthew Booth
Oupa Manyisa
Andile Jali
Hlompho Jelena
Thabo Matlaba
George Lebese.....infact the list is too long.

I don't know the rest but Steven Pienaar l know very well and he waa a technically gifted player and a fans favourite at Everton.

Kane is an excellent striker.

However, you have to play a certain way too accommodate him. But when you do goals are guaranteed for sure, irrespective of the league.

Only thing he lacks is pace.

Yep... Pace.
I don't think he can be a playmaking number 9 like Benzema is. The good thing is he and Benzema can both play together.
Have you noticed he isn't as mobile as before since his last injury?

I think he can in the world cup he dropped deep lack of pace couldn't keep up with Rashford and Raheem. So he played essentially as an AM creating chances for the faster forwards

This is where Tega Abrahams is going to give him some serious competition for that number 9 role.

Tega too has been consistently consistent over the last three seasons and is getting better. But Tega has pace. I don't know how fast he is because he's so tall and his stride so long. It's only when you see shorter player alongside him busting a gut to keep up that you realise how fast he is.

Bea reasonable in addition Kane may lack pace but he's more adaptable to different styles of football. And he can finish with eyes closed both feet.

Good thing is he has ambidexterity and clinical finishing on his side.
If he goes to Madrid to be a play making 9, he's not benching Benzema anytime soon.

9. Or Does it involved the GREEN EAGLES or the SUPER EAGLES

10. What particular Player or Players actually featured in that Match?

11. Was it even a friendly Match?

12. Why was it not being documented and referenced like other great Matches?

Even the ban rumor on INDIA over the said Match was never True. The only time INDIA was actually banned was in 1950 World cup over their refusal to play football with boots while seeking to play barefooted

Look, I actually believed this same story too back then while growing up and up till the early 90's, No one and I repeat, No one till date ever has provided anything answer or answers to the above questions.

Former international Sani Kaita has told SCORENigeria the present Super Eagles could achieve more than the country’s Golden Generation of 1994, who won the AFCON and reached the knockout rounds of the World Cup.

Kaita, who featured for Nigeria at 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, said the current team are packed with talented youngsters who can be whatever they want to be as a team.

“The present Super Eagles are a very young team, with great talented players. We all need to be patient with them, as there are no easy games these days. I believe they will make us all proud. Let’s keep supporting them,” he told SCORENigeria



“These Eagles have all it takes to even do better than the team of 1994, who are regarded as the best-ever to represent Nigeria.

“But in all honesty, I don’t think they will have the commitment of the boys 1994, let’s just hope they will step up in this direction because I have no doubt the quality is there already.”

The Eagles placed third at this year’s AFCON in Egypt and featured at the group stage of last year’s World Cup in Russia.

Celta Vigo are the latest club being linked with a move for former Everton player Henry Onyekuru in the January transfer window.

Turkish media outlet Ajansspor claims Celta Vigo are on the trail of the Nigeria international but have to see off competition from Galatasaray to sign the Monaco striker.

Onyekuru has failed to live up to expectations since his summer move to the Principality outfit, making just two starts in Ligue 1 with no goals to his name and could be shipped off on loan in the winter transfer market.

The likes of Gelson Martins, Ben Yedder, Baldé and Islam Slimani are ahead of the Nigerian in manager Leonardo Jardim's pecking order of strikers at Monaco.

Despite his limited playing opportunities, Onyekuru is not lacking suitors with CSKA Moscow and Lokomotiv Moscow also credited with an interest in the 22-year-old.

Celta Vigo have scored the least number of goals in La Liga this season, seven in total from 13 games, and might consider signing a striker in January.

Onyekuru showed his goalscoring credentials at Eupen, RSC Anderlecht and Galatasaray, netting 56 goals in 132 competitive matches.

You completely contradict yourself and then you digress with talk of Hazard. Then to make it worse you bring in opinionated garbage about supposed support for English players.

Unfortunately this is very common here. But what's disappointing is some who claim to be educated acting like village headmasters. No attention to diction or detail.

Hazard is yet to find laliga easy
Owen wasn't a flop tho he wasn't just settled. Was behind R9 and Raul in the perking order but still finished with about 16 league goals
