What doesn't take planning in this life? There are countries that can host a world cup right now (well, obviously not now sha). I already stated my reasons so why are u bringing up money when that was a reason for the thing in the first place.

Every country is in a recession, which country would be able to host the whole world at the moment?

I think he is better in defense. He doesn't pass well enough to be in midfield.

That's why the pairing of Ajayi and Ekong look weird, they are both non ball playing defenders.

Ajayi should be paired with Balogun or Ekong with Awaziem for more balance

You can only apply for a Nigerian passport if you have Nigerian roots.

Which recession? Are u saying England doesn't have enough to host a one off world cup? Spain, Italy, France and Germany nko? America would also jump at the opportunity to have the world watching them for a reason not named Donald Trump. Japan were practically ready for an Olympics and they could also do it. Then there is China that would be a story by itself. There would be options.

The world is currently at a recession bro grin, and would take years to recover

You think paying 80% of its workforce without any income is beans, besides hosting a world cup would cost millions of dollars and there is no guarantee that they would recuperate the amount spent

Inter use a 2 man attack

So if osimhen will replace Martinez then he should be playing with Lukaku up front

Management changes bro.
Conte may leave and a new coach might prefer a lone striker formation.

Usman Mamadou Simbakoli has signed a 5 year deal with Lille.

He is a 19 year old striker of Nigerian and Central African Republic Origin.

Lille to land Usman Mamadou Simbakoli from Angers

Ouest-France and Foot Mercato report that Ligue 1 side Lille have prised U19s attacker Usman Mamadou Simbakoli away from Angers.

The goal machine, who has scored 16 goals in 13 matches this season, has recently refused a professional contract offer from Le SCO, this despite multiple meetings taking place between his advisers and the club before the proposal was made.

Simbakoli will turn 19 in a matter of hours, but there is a strong belief among a number of sources that the player has already signed a 5-year deal with Lille.

Of Nigerian and Central Africa Republic descent, the player is understood to have negotiated and agreed to this deal back in February with Les Dogues.

First of all your article did not say that the world is in a recession.

All the countries I mentioned can handle a world and I could even add a few. Outside stadiums, roads and hotels what do you need? Those countries already have these things.

This same question u are asking should be asked of UEFA and other confederations planning competitions next year. Euro's, AFCON, Copa America and Gold Cup will all be next year.

Great news, it has got to be one of these guys, Jordan Ibe, Billing or the Striker himself, Dominic Solanke.


Can't be Billing. Already said he doesn't feel Nigerian. How will he now pledge "without playing hide and seek"

Solanke? That one that has not scored EPL goal this season? grin I'm very sure by minutes played, he's the worst striker in EPL.

Ibe? idk about him

There's citizenship by neutralisation..

And as per FIBA rule,every country can have at least 1 neutralised player in their squad for a tournament.

stop being negative, the current english team has 2 dependable leftbacks so it will be a tough one for a green horn like saka to make the 3 lions team to the euros.

Also he will find it difficult to get a sniff of any side of the flanks with the likea of sterling, sancho and rashford miles ahead of him.

U av forgotten dt euros is now next year..and dis guy form is ascending daily ,and u can't predict what might happen to d oda players ahead of him in his role,same scenario dt almost played out for Tammy abraham;he was almost looking like he would b d starter @ euros considering d injuries to kane and rashford,now d tides has changed again.... In a nutshell, SAKA still has a chance to represent England next year @ euros cool cool
