O Pari! Lol


But make I no lie... That game just got tougher without five of our top guys. I will especially miss Osimhen's super fire and mega presence as a #9. No striker in camp has the Super diehard presence of Osimhen in that #9 role but still, they are all talented no doubt.

Mahrez and co will seriously want to press home that advantage of us being five key players short. But I hope the new guys give as a good a fight as what is worthy of being a Super Eagle.


Yeah but you know one thing about this our team? There are no key players. Most of the players are almost at par. Even Osimhen has not really been heads ahead of the other strikers in the team.

I trust Rohr to come up with a set up that can Optimise the potentials we have on ground.

Then we good then. No p.

Information sharing combined with sound analysis should not be loathed but encouraged. It is things like this that got me noticed by these guys that walk so close to Rohr and other folks "in the know" of our football and national team. And they all have their lives too. Top professionals.

So let's move on coz this generation is giving me good vibes and I feel my prophecy and prediction on another Golden Generation for Nigerian football made a few years back from some of the rising gems we see today is on track to being fulfilled.

You created the 'jealousy and envy' stuff before they joined you because they don't read news. I mean the 3 guys that joined your chorus making accusations of jealousy and envy. They only read it here and it's quite understandable.

The other one is your elder brother who is always biased. I noticed that he comes here wherever there's an argument to support you, so petty!

That's been said.


My advise is to tell your sources that their news aren't exclusives and the ones that look like exclusives don't matrialize.

Bros, TBH, Some of TheSupernerd news are exclusives and spot on. Make we dey talk true with fear of God.
The explanation Nerd gave concerning Tobias pulling out and then changing his mind to join the camp is logical and simple unless una get wetin una dey find for The SuperNerd contribution.
BTW, No be only you dey get Owngoalnigeria newsletter o. I doubt you even follow Owngoal as much as I do.

I agree on the overall especially with respect to the players that we will put out on Friday. But even at that, Iwobi remains key to our Attacking plays. Chukwueze and his wing partner (be it Simon, Kalu or Ejuke) will also prove key for us in that game.

Osimhen... Hmmm.. Dad. I know what I am saying about that lad. Osimhen is the War!! He is the fight! He is the Indaboski of our Attack. Believe me, his warlike presence uptop is the only thing I will miss b'cos I know we can replace his goals. Iheanacho, Dessers and Onuachu are goals men themselves. Our wingers are not left out too in goals duties.



I think a newbie may take most of the shine or share most of the attention alongside a regular. I am expecting a warrior's performance from Frank Onyeka (if he starts) and a bold debut from Zaidu (if he starts or plays).

We will definitely fight Algeria to a standstill even without our five top guys. That is why I am eager to see our depth in action on Friday. It is another opportunity to test just how good our depth has become so far.

Money is already being made in my actual line of work/profession and then from a few more, my good man. wink
But yes, we can never have enough of money can we? The monetisation thing had already been suggested by Elyte89 longer before now if anyone can recall and then just recently by Realpoacher. Believe me, it is already being worked on. Just not going the desperate path. I'm taking it cool.

Indeed many talents/simple ideas can turn into money making ventures. It is well. wink

I believe subsequent training sessions on Wednesday (2 on wed) and then thursday morning will begin giving us ideas of how we would likely set up against the Desert foxes of Algeria.
But so far, I am loving the Spirit in camp. Especially the way Omeruo has been on Awaziem's case all day. grin Jovial lads. Joy all around. Good for team motivation.

That our AFCON game against South Africa was a typical Ahmed Musa performance... He totally destroyed the South African right back (Mhikize or whatever grin) with his pace and dribbles..but whenever he got into South Africa's box,he got confused...

He will be around the team for much longer,I'm certain of that....
Just 12 more games to become our all time appearance leader..

Musa was badly coached when he was a teenager. I suspect most (not all) Nigerian coaches lack adequate knowledge of football and it shows in the talented but raw players they produce

It is not only nigerian footballers that have to go abroad but NIGERIAN COACHES HAVE TO GO TO EUROPE OR GET EXPOSED TO HAVE THEIR KNOWLEDGE UPDATED.
i even think exposing Nigerian coaches will be better. One good coach can priduce 30 good players. Its something that has to be taken seriously.

All young relatively inexperienced goalies.

Do we thrust them into the deep end or use the likes of Akpeyi till they mature?

Uzoho is just returning and may need time.

I think we trust them.

Francis should be back just in time for the qualifiers. And with Maduka already coming in against Brazil, he knows the country has got his back. That's enough confidence for him.

I have no problems with Akpeyi in particular, but like they say, "na one time pesin dey die". It's not until they're 25 before we start testing them. We can also be the source of exposure for them.

For those who couldn't watch


By the way, only Dele did his initiation song in a local language, even though he no use pass 45 seconds or something. He called it a freestyle. Dele was shy, and wouldn't want to climb the stage, until Ekong initiated a "Pasu!" chant, then he reluctantly climbed up

Ejuke song a Nigerian song. I don't know the song, but it was certainly a Nigerian one.

One of them song Aye, by Davido. I think those were the only 3 who sang Nigerian song.

Dessers was the first of them who wasn't booed(play play booeing o). He didn't even take his phone, and he sung a song which was a classic. Most of the guys sung it along him.


Ekong(or was it Omeruo?), his pidgin was shockingly good. I wouldn't be surprised if it were Omeruo, but the voice came from where they were sitted. Ekong, Balogun and Omeruo.....it sure as hell isn't Balogun grin

All in all, I enjoyed the video. Musa was mischievous, so fun a man.

Ekong(i'm sure this time) was shouting "Yi hakuri" at one of the new guys, who I'm guessing is Hausa, cos Musa was trolling him too. Musa was actually heavily laughing at him and I think he was bantering him in Hausa.

E dey surprise me sey he was a FB. Man has gotten Nigerianised so much. No wonder he's a captain. If you watch the video, you'd see why I say, Ekong is going nowhere anytime soon.

Omeruo was the cameraman, and while Musa was just catching his own fun, Ekong was more like the organizer, kept asking, "time still dey for more?"

Now I see why when he was accused of being a bad influence by one of the NFFs, his teammates stood for him.
