Taiwo scored a beautiful goal today. His left foot is one reason the team needs him. He is one of the few world class players Nigeria has and people really should start noticing that.

i support Marseilles cos of him. hope they qualify for UCL this season.

leave all the dimwits on NL. when you see eboue's improvement at Arsenal,you imagine wat Taiwo would do if he has a good defensive trainer. some thing our oyinbo coach should work on.

He is still very relivant in SE

@snakova,
the topic is abt taiwo's goal at his club that is in france that is far from arsenal and ebue.
all what we expect to hear from u is thank God for him or that it was not a goal.
the ebue u have introduced here now, is he the same ebue that came to angola for those who do not watch english league?
did ebue come to afc with his much talked abt improvement and if yes, how far did he go and if no, why not?
the only way to be a successful man in life is to first of all appreciate what u have and thank God for the lives of others.
we have no respect for all these guys who are sacrificing their lives for us and why.
sam okwaraji died playing for nigeria, today no one is talking abt him or his family and someone somewhere is still taking that same risk, haba, they deserve our praises.

for Taiwo, i pray that he will remain focused in his game and god that has brought him this far will take him to a greater height.
taiwo and other nigerian players must always remember that their fate is not in the hands of nigerians.

Good to know

For any1 interested in the goal:

Taiwo plays more as a midfielder for Marseille. I still prefer Echiejile to him at left-back in the Super Eagles particularly when we have central defenders who aren't very good at covering their wing backs.

A good coach usually plays a formation that will suit the strengths of the available players. Taiwo is a good wingback but a below par full back. Taiwo would fare well in a 3-5-2 or 4-4-2 diamond formation with a DM as an anchor.

I think Lagerback would use him effectively and we should play to the strengths of Taiwo and Mikel. They are amongst our biggest players atm (with regards to playing at the highest level).

^^^ 2ru yarn.

@semid4lyfe,
it is about taiwo's goal in marseille and the echiejile u prefer is not prefered by the marseille coach hence the need to talk about the goal, taiwo and marseille but if you have need for comparism, u can start a new topic.

@ow11,
u just dropped the harmmer at the head of the nail.

^^^ yes ooo. Lagerback can solve the problem. check out zanetti at Inter.

Taiwo is only not good enough when he plays under Amodu. He was and is still great anytime under Siasia,
even under Eguaveon he is a great player it is only when he plays for Amodu that he becomes ordinary and
that tells me something,

There was nothing 'scorching' about Taiwo's goal,
tell that to those who didnt watch

I saw it, it was a fantastic goal. truly scorching!
Maybe it was cricket that you watched

IT was a FLUUUUUUUUUKE!!!!!
Typical Taiwo. . . Shoot and leave the rest. .
It only hit the limelight because it was the winner

Your opinion sir. An average football follower knows that Taiwo is a power shooter and that was what he did
deliberately sailing the ball into the net. If it was Messi that scored that you won't call it a FLUKE. learn to
appreciate your own. He scored a fantastic goal, d ball entered the net. simple!

Taiwo played badly in Angola and I think too much defensive duties were required of him even with 2 DMs in the team. Bad player choice right there! Echiejile was a better fit for Amodu's tactics and he duly delivered.

It was a FANTASTIC GOAL. Great Goal
If you are not happy about it go jump into the Lagoon. P E R I O D!

great goal from a great player no doubt, who ever is comparing taiwo with eboue is just talking crap. taiwo is one of the best left-footers in football today. thumbs up my brother

this nigerians never no good footballer, for me taiwo had a great anc 2010, he played only two games and he played well. against egypt taiwo created 2 goal scoring chances plus another 2 shot on goal, but because he turned his back for the second goal we critisied him. nigerians need to start appreciating modern day full backs that overlaps and defends also, taiwo is easily among the top 3 left backs in the world. do you know that inter-milan ac,liverpool are all interested in taiwo so after world cup provideing a good performance taiwo will be in a good club

BANG BANG WAAAAAAAAAA!

We want to see more of such from him in SA.

fluckkkkkkkkkkkkkk
