Thank you for a reasoned opinion.

Most people only understand their betting slips. They are mostly functional illiterates and ill bred dysfunctional types. Drama over substance.
Hahaha, lol at betting slips and functional illiterates grin

He has served meritoriously, he should move on, there are better players who have not been given opurtunities biko. I don't like his kind of play.... OKOCHA in his prime plays better than him...aje.

A lot of people who criticize Iwobi do so because he is a soft target. The fact is, he played very well in this tournament.
This is what I wrote about him in this thread: https://www.nairaland.com/7997465/only-one-appreciates-role-alex

Iwobi was very good in the match against Angola. The only problem Nigeria had was playing too deep. This style doesn't allow creativity.

Okay but they shouldn't invite him again. He doesn't know what he is playing again.

Imperfection and mistakes is what makes winners emerge

The entirety of the super eagles played below expectation!

We struggled in all of our matches and I was sure it won’t get better in the finals.

I supported because of patriotism, not that they were playing good football.

OUR KEEPER GOT US THAT FAR

Not only him! The team was bad and football is a team game. Iwobi can be excused because he was asked to play a different position from the position he's used to. To me, Zaidu Sanusi was our worst player, yet I will only blame the coach and not the player because the coach has the right to drop any player that is not performing.

Hush please.

People who elect Jonathan, Buhari, etc, into sensitive positions like Presidency have no moral justification to disparage Alex Iwobi.

The young man is a citizen of Britain, earning juicy money weekly playing for Fulham, yet accepted to give his best to his nation, and all you lots are abusing and cyber trolling him because of a loss.

Look at the entire team... Under normal circumstances, getting to that final should never have happened.

Iwobi played his heart out... Whatever his errors, he gave his best.

If there were better alternatives, he would have been benched.


Make all of una rest for the boy matter.

Iwobi flopped just like Tinubu.

Y'all always need a scapegoat Everytime.

Iwobi wasn't the only flop... Apart from Troost, Nwabali, and Lookman, who else in that team stepped up and stayed consistent throughout the competition?!!

An entire team was outclassed, outplayed and disgraced by one of the worst teams in the competition at a whole finals, and you are picking on a single player.

If not for Troost and Nwabali, that game should have ended 4:1 in favor of Cote'divoire.

It would have been a very disgraceful final for Naija.


Make everybody just lock up and face front abeg. cool

Iwobi was never a creative midfielder. We shouldn't be expecting what he can't offer. A kind of creative midfielder we need for this current team is a player with Mikel obi's style of play.

Was Mikel Obi a creative midfielder?

Playing for Nigeria super Eagles is a risky task.The other time Jude ighalo life and his family was threatened before he retired from football.Nigerians were praising super Eagles when they qualified for final.Now they are victims of cyber-bullyiing because they lost to a better team

Forgive him for what exactly! You people should grow up and stop fighting players. You think playing football is easy. If I am Iwobi, I will apply Balotelli medicine to haterz.

Don't mind them...!

See them acting like they had so many options and did the young man a favor by inviting him.

The boy is made already.

If options truly dey, would he have been invited?!!

Should Iwobi be the main creative midfield player under normal circumstances?!! If Naija get better team options, then blame the coach for using an inexperienced player.


Nigerians no just know where their problems dey... We just like to follow crowd dey yarn nonsense.

Please, mention those better players in that midfield that should have been called up ahead of Alex Iwobi currently.
