Is not about masturbation Oga! Why can't he be sent to first division? Why second division if he's so good. At least our players are playing in first division.

I'm very Sure if Nah NPFL player that this happened to I know how you will react to it...

Lemme quickly add this... Yes NPFL is poor and decay but we should learn to appreciate those crazy move instead of bringing them down.

How Far about Nigeria moves Now? I saw your post where you are dissing those players that played in WC.


If u had read the article, u would have seen why the second division choice

Can u quote the post where I was dissing our worldcup guys abi u just wan say something?

The problem is Ethiopia rate us higher. For you to agree to want to play there, they begin to doubt your abilities. Same applies to those backwater leagues in Europe. Nigeria is a popular football nation.

The player’s agents should stop making it look like the players they represent are desperate even though they actually are.

Why second division? That's my question too.. You know some clubs do buy junks at times and later regret their decision.

Even if he hits it off there I am not sure that will be enough to get him a work permit. So this is a wasted season basically. Remember that he is 24/25.

His sub has scored every time, he has been brought on

Well the coach showed faith in him and he has repaid it. He is more complete striker than the sub.

We are talking about achievements ON THE PITCH for the national team please.

Atlanta 96 was an age grade competition.

Vic Moses had a better AFCON than Sunday Mba. He has performed for us at the WCQ.

Vic Moses has performed just as well or even better in the super eagles than Kanu.

Did Kanu ever make the Afcon team of the tournament?

How many goals did Kanu score at AFCON and World Cup?
i don't even remember Victor Moses' contribution to our AFCON compared to Sunday Mba's title-winning goal.


Moses' legendary status will be determined with time......for now, as tbaba has shown, the majority say he is NOT a Super Eagles legend

Maybe Victor Moses don see the yeye things dem dey do underground that doesn't motivates a player that wants to win laurel.

Atlanta 96 was Nigeria's first trophy at that level on the World Stage.

AFCON was not out first.

Kanu is also an Arsenal legend

Moses is not a Chelsea legend


If you want to give Moses legend status based on AFCON, then Sunday Mba should also be a Nigerian football legend.


Kanu started a heart foundation that has helped millions, what has Moses helped anybody do?


You assume being a legend is solely about football. It is not just about playing a game, it is about the sacrifices you make in the process of playing.


Which sacrifice has Moses ever made for the GwG? He used the team to elevate himself, but never did anything to his own detriment for the sake of the team. Nigga was a selfish ass mofo and he wasn't even good enough to cover up for it. Not one record worthy of note on any stage. Is that your legend?

Moses is not a Legend, he's not even a Hero or a Star, maybe he could be a Guinness because he's made of black


Moses was already a popular figure in the EPL with Wigan and that was the main reason Chelsea bidded 5 times for him before Chelsea bought him from Wigan.

He could had played for England during that particular peeiod when he was adjourned the best dribbler in the EPL but he refused and still played for Nigeria.


Check your facts right, abeg.

Moses our best player at afcon 2013,we won the tournament if he was our best player did he get the golden or silver ball ? Na back of tv u dey watch 2013

A guy named pitroipa was given the best player despite Burkinafaso loosing the final,just the way Modric won the golden ball at the World Cup

If there was a silver ball in that tournament it will go to emenike or mikel

From what you said,I repeat my self na back of tv you dey watch

Mind you emenike scored 4 goals and did 3 assist,and you dare to say that Moses was our best player,he only scored 2 penalty against Ethiopia

Moses was compensated with the fair play award.

Osinbajo should please sack that useless Dalung angry. This embarrassment is too much. angry


World’s Football governing body, FIFA have turned down a proposed visit by a Nigerian delegation, led by the Minister for Sports, Solomon Dalung in a bid to discuss the ongoing leadership tussle rocking the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).
Nigeria are facing a race against time to avoid a worldwide ban from football after FIFA gave Nigeria until Monday, August 20, 2018 to handover the administration and offices of the Football Federation to Amaju Pinnick and his Secretary, Mohammed Sanusi.
In a bid to circumvent FIFA’s judgment,
www.aclsports.com exclusively scooped that Dalung wrote to FIFA on Wednesday, August 15, through the office of the Nigerian Ambassador to Switzerland, seeking to meet with the FIFA President Gianni Infantino alongside members of his reconciliatory committee and Chris Giwa, head of the other faction.
However, FIFA, in a swift reply to Dalung’s request, signed by its Secretary General Fatma Samoura and made available to
www.aclsports.com rejected the idea while reiterating the stance of the Bureau Council of FIFA to ban Nigeria on Monday if they fail to do as requested.
“While we are aware of the seriousness and urgency of the matter, we regret to inform you that we are not in a position to respond favourably to your request for an appointment with the FIFA Ieadership. In fact, the FIFA President is indisposed during the proposed period,” stated FIFA in their response.

Those on Dalung’s proposed delegation to Zurich include; Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Youth and Sports Olusade Adesola, former NFA Chairmen, Ibrahim Galadima and Anthony Kodjo Williams, former NFF Secretary General Bolaji Ojo Oba, Amaju Pinnick, Mohammed Sanusi and Chris Giwa.
“Moreover, we would Iike to recall that one member of the proposed delegation, Mr Chris Giwa, is currently under a worldwide ban, in accordance with the decision of the FIFA DiscipIinary Committee dated 10 January 2017 to extend the five—year ban from taking part in any kind of footbaII-related activity imposed by the Nigeria FootbaIl Federation’s (NFF) Disciplinary Committee on 12 May 2016,” added FIFA.
The governing body also reminded the Minister that the only channel with which it relates to its member bodies is through the legitimate Football Federation and advised him not to use other means in the future.
“We would Iike to emphasise that we normally communicate with and through our member associations, in this case the NFF under its Iegitimate President Amaju Melvin Pinnick.
“Consequently, we would be grateful to have any future correspondence be routed through the NFF directly,” said FIFA.
The Nigerian government have been making efforts to ensure that Nigeria escapes the FIFA hammer and the Acting-President, Yemi Osinbajo has held meetings with the NFF President Pinnick and with the rival Chris Giwa on resolving the impasse. It remains to be seen to what effect or reason the Minister’s latest move is hinged on.

This Moses argument never end?


I can't call him a Legend yet, but he was very pivotal to Afcon 2013 than Mikel. Simple.


Mba sits among Legends cos his solo contributions to the title sits well in the hearts of Nigerians for that goal that made 180million peeps jump up in front of their TV sets just like Kanu's winning Goal at Atlanta 96. That's why Mba sits there.


If you like play like Iniesta and don't do what Kanu and Mba did at very vital moments, you can't be qualified as a legend. That's the Nigerian way!!! Has VicMo done that? Nope!! So he can't be called a SE legend. guy doesn't even have 70caps sef. Kanu wasn't even playing well in the final prior to his heroics in Atlanta.

Hence, I can say that It's the same eyes that we use to look at Mikel for his heroics Vs CIV. But Moses has done far far more than Mikel did to our team. Siasia was one of the coaches that proved his team can work without the presence of Mikel. But remove Moses from our attack line and we are back to our High blood pressure days again. The ish was that he grew selfish as time flew by. I think that's the eye peeps are using to see him, I did to.

The same eye peeps use to see Yakubu for his miss at 2010 WC. Meanwhile he had a very good record as an attacker for both club and country.


That's just it.


These footballers should know that's how we see them.


Mba can never ever be forgotten in decades to come until we have another superlative heroic from any current or new SE player. simple.

Belgian club Standard Liege have placed a five million dollars price tag on Uche Agbo after Serie A side Torino inquired about the versatile midfielder.

Agbo still has two years to run on his contract with the Belgian club.



The Nigeria international played for Granada CF in the Spanish La Liga on loan from Watford before he joined Standard Liege.

Last season, he featured in 32 of the 38 matches for his Belgian club.

Eagles defender Ola Aina has already joined Torino on loan from Chelsea.
