Chief, we should talking about consistency. Not up today down tomorrow. How consistent was Sone, since Rohr came in

Sone play in the national due inconsistency but due to the fact that he didn't give ejunge.

I don't want to argue to much.

I hope you also share this same sentiment when your parents and elderly ones are owed their pension and entitlements.

You should also say "ehn you must have enough money by now to take care of yourself, go home and sit down".

My Personal opinion about this years AFCON:

1 It is the worst in recent years

2 Nigeria won't win. Our greatest undoing would be the GK and our Coach especially

3 Senegal would reach the finals

4 Uganda would reach the Semis

5 Mane would cement his place as Africa's best

grin cheesy


I disagree with point 1,dis years afcon play has been competitive, unlike b4 where we would av already knw d quarter finals slot even b4 d competition starts

Bar d attendance,I think d tournament is living up to expectations. smiley


Point 2...are u talking abt d tournament? If yes,well as a fan,I want us to carry d trophy


Point 4....Uganda is getting knocked out in d 2nd round ,highest quarterfinals wink

Sorry bro, but, Simon is the third choice right/left winger in the Super Eagles, in fact, he is so down the pecking order, that Rohr now views him as a makeshift left/right full back behind Awaziem(in the absence of Shehu and Aina). The first choice wingers in the team are LW- Musa and Onyekuru, RW - Kalu and Chukwueze. With Kalu fit, Simon will only get a chance as a full back, otherwise, nothing for him, Rohr has already confirmed it here;

''The other day in the last training session
we lost two players, Collins through injury
and Kalu with this incident and two other
players replaced them and they did well.
''Ola did well, Chukwueze did well. They
replaced Kalu and Collins who were
supposed to start the match in the last
moment."




BTW, can u prove that Simon was as good as Kalu when both were at Gent?


He claimed Kalu is better than Simon even when Kalu didn't play for two months. Does that make sense?

Simon is a Gent Legend. That can't be said of Kalu.

Simon has done better than Kalu in the National team. Can you dispute that?

Chukwueze and Kalu are RWs. Simon is not fighting for RW position but LW, and we know Ahmed Musa is the first choice.

All that full back talk doesn't change anything. Onazi played RB in 2013 AFCON. Does that mean he was not good enough? grin

Even if SE fans have guns & were told to select a team for each match, they will finish themselves while arguing who will be in and who should be out. If Rohr is not in-charge, kudos to whoever is, cos its not easy to get +90% in players selection for any tournament I rest my case

Selection are mixture of man no man and merit just to deceive the public. Na still corruption. You can just justify corruption as much as you like.

Bros we should not start this arguement nah

You know the last time you said this I supported you not just because I want to support just because that's my opinion also

Kalu is new to the national team ,we all know this

Please drop this arguement ,make another arguement no go start again ,maybe you want Moses Simon to start and he is not starting ,even the same kalu is not also starting because of his health,'make we support anybody wey play than to dey compare who good pass

This is not about who starts. It is about correcting wrong information.

How can a sane fan want Simon, Kalu or Onyekuru to start ahead of Chukwueze and Musa?

These are the first choice for me.

If he prefers match rusty, unfit Kalu to Simon, then, that tells u something about the gulf in class between the two players grin

Since Kalu joined the national team, he has been head and shoulders above Simon QED.

Oh Simon is no longer fighting with Kalu? Lol even at the LW position, Simon is still the third choice behind Musa and Onyekuru grin

Really all that full back doesn't change anything? Lol maybe u didnt follow Simon this past season to know he isnt a winger no more but a full back/ wing back grin

It is obvious you don't know anything. grin

Kalu and Chukwueze are the two competing for RW slot though Kalu is the first choice (but things might have changed after Chukwueze impressed). Simon is not competing for the RW because that's not his position in the national team. Fact. See snapshot below

How many freekick goal has Kalu scored?

How many goals have Kalu scored for the SE?

Simon was one of Nigeria's best player during the world cup qualifiers yet you are talking about Kalu. grin

Ahmed Musa is the LW first choice but nobody knows who is the second choice between Simon and Onyekuru.

Simon played as a winger too in La Liga. Stop giving false information.

Ps: the last snapshot is Kalu's stats with the national team. 99% RW

u can't really blame them.
They re used to saner climes where alert hits every Friday irrespective of whether they kick the ball or not.

I personally think there is nothing wrong in what they did. The light protest of boycotting press conference night have been exaggerated.
And I think they might have reasoned that if they hadn't done the light protest, payment might even escalate.

Take a look at falcons and our u20..once they were knocked out, the bonus news and entitlement fiddled out..no one cared again..

These guys are big guys,u can't compare them to peanut salary workers who solely depend on their salaries.
Its not everybody u can fvck with and get away with it.

LOL....peanut salary workers?

Wow....you guys really have respect for your work force in Nigeria, no wonder they are underpaid and underappreciated. Let me catch anybody that will come and tell me trash about any ex-International needing money again, if they are big guys, they should remain in their clubs next time.

It was only the bonus from the Burundi match they hadn't been paid. The money was on ground, it was just to transfer the cash to their accounts, these 'big boys' wanted the money in dollars, so, NFF was processing it, but these same big boys decided to act like little babies, and once again embarass the entire country for how much?

I don't know what you people call big boys, but the big boys I know, don't disturb anybody and make a raucous on top bonus money.

A lot of people are ignoring salient facts, just so we can hang the NFF as usual.

Even the world's richest footballers get paid as at when due. Nobody tells them "Bros, you already have enough money to buy some countries, so your next payment will delay no vex" Nobody reasons like that. Nobody will also tell you "shebi it's ordinary football you're playing, you're not carrying cement so you can wait". Nobody will say such a thing.


It's all good o.

If they wanted payment as at when due, they should have collected it in the Naira they were offered.

Do we make transactions in dollars in Nigeria? Big boys said they want dollars, so, they had to do the exchange for them, and they told them it would take time, but big boys (in baby leagues) want to hold the country to ransome because of that.

When last did NFF owe the Super Eagles?

Since Kalu joined the team, what has been his input compared to Simon's? Let me rephrase, since the world cup ended, what has Simon done for the Eagles compared to Kalu?
