Nigeria WILL BEAT ICELAND. They'll either Draw or Defeat Croatia. That's 4/6 points in the bag already. That should see them safely through to the next round.

Haa this kin overconfidence make me remember France 98 where ninjas swore we would beat Paraguay and Denmark. I'm glad we are facing Croatia first. So long as we avoid defeat then hope dey

PDPGuy:
O boy, how will the Super Eagles midfield cope with Rakitic and Modric in the middle of the Park. Of course, with those two guys in Croatia’s midfield, they will have a greater share of possession.

To me, the midfield battle between Mikel, Ndidi and Rakitic, and Modric will determine who wins the game.

Rakitic ti lana. Ina kpiti!! Na the likes of Perisic go give problem. If I see Echiejile in any of the lineups I go just off TV

raumdeuter:


You are foolish for inundating us with shouts of Krychokewack and it has now boomeranged in your face, suck your L like LOLLY

As it boomeranged on those that rated shevy as the best striker in the world while at acmilan only to flop at chelsea, right?

The L is on your big head. Your reliable TeLegraph, tied it on your head with their krychowiak rating. You can carry L to LLLLLLLautech ogbomosho, on your next visit.

Brahh that Icelandic team is average at best. If the Eagles can't beat those lot, we might as well just back our bags and head Home. That nice run they had at the Euros isn't about to repeat itself again. It simply isn't happening.

Rakitic of a few years ago YES. However we all know He has been on a gradual decline since Barca won the treble in 2015. This current Rakitic no be am at all. That midfield battle won't be as one sided as you think. Also that defence can be got at. I am very confident the Eagles will make it into the 2nd round.

Iceland topped a group of Croatia, Turkey and Ukraine. I wouldn't be so dismissive of them if I were you. Making the World Cup actually shows their feat at the Euros no be mistake

snowstormm:
neymar is disrespected in this group...He is far better than Eden


he is the better dribbler(Eden not far,despite Eden main strength is dribbling)

he is the better scorer(not debatable(

he is the better assist maker

he is the better free kick taker even corner kick

he is the better header(both aren't that good in this tho)

he is the better passer

he is more intelligent than hazard

he is even faster than hazard


wetin hazard can do pass him to be comparing them?


despite playing in Europe before neymar..neymar has 27 UCL and 25 assists more than hazard 8 goals...infact in 2014..neymar had 10 ucl goals tied with ronaldo and messi

At 25 he has 309 career goals 150+ assists. 53 for Brazil.. top 5 Brazil(bigger nation than Belgium) highest goal scorer..just 9 goals off ronaldo el fenomeno total..more than ronaldinho,bebeto,zico,kaka and co

he is the fourth player in UCL history to score in the first five group stage match..if he score against Bayern he will be the first player to score in all UCL group stages games

he is the first player to score in every matches from quarter final to final in UCL.

he is just 25 years old..hazard is even a year older

he already has 100+ goals for 2 clubs (Santos+Barca)..hazard hasn't even reach 100 goals in Chelsea




hensben and co...respect a legend

a world cup and leading PSG to UCL trophy will make him top 15 or top 10 greatest footballer ever!!!

hazard won't even be in top 100

Only craze people still compare Hidden Ikebe Super to Neymar at this point

A40:

This might just mean Croatia is also a rubbish team like Iceland. Based on the information you have provided above, we are tipping Naija for the 6 points.

If Naija > Iceland, and Iceland > Croatia, then Naija > Croatia.

The same Croatia that beat Spain at the last Euros? I hope I would not be here to sing Timaya 'Tell person' for you guys because the way una dey underrate Iceland even after watching the last Euros I no kuku understand

Euros was over a year ago...Croatia are close to shit now..they needed a miracle to qualify...had to even sack their former coach before their last qualifying game.

*Chelsea's 'perplexing' fixture list hands Manchester City the advantage - Conte*

Antonio Conte believes that the Premier League's fixture list has had an adverse effect on Chelsea's chances to retain their title as Manchester City sit 11 points ahead on the table.

Chelsea play on Saturday afternoon against Newcastle United having had less than three days to prepare having faced Swansea City on Wednesday evening.

Conte rested Eden Hazard, Tiemoue Bakayoko and Cesar Azpilicueta midweek so the trio would be fresh for the clash against Rafael Benitez's side but he thinks that the Magpies' extra day of rest gives them the advantage.

"Yes, I must be honest," Conte said in a news conference at Cobham Training Ground.

"Newcastle played on Tuesday and we played on Wednesday and now we play at 12:30 on Saturday. It has happened again. I don’t want to complain but OK once it can happen.

"Against Watford we should have played on Monday and then they changed to Saturday at 12.30 after we played on Wednesday. OK, once it can happen. Twice it can happen. Against Man City, then you start to be perplexed."

I hope you can see how fa is assisting baldiola and city both off and on the pitch?

raumdeuter:


You mean after Iniesta is the highest assist giver in a season Barcelona won the league we should still cont 1,2 3

WHen has Hidden Hazard ever been the highest assist giver in Chelsea

I have attached it, Have you seen it? Do you have any further clarification? See Obere4u has respected himself and disappeared like the fart of a leprous witch

www.nairaland.com/attachments/6346548_iniesta1_png7bdd2c74e9848efb19ed7a538b691458

Oga was Iniesta highest goalscorer or assister when he won MoTM in UCL and world cup including Euro?

Debroslink:


Who cares about the highest goal scorer in 2006, 2010 or even 2014 world cups? But the world won't forget Zidane, Iniesta and Goetze for their exploits in finals respectively.

Remind me of France's 2nd round or group stage opponents, or Germany's own. But finals can't be forgotten neither the main event players like Don Iniesta.

Klose will always be remembered for being highest goalscorer in a world cup and overall.

My EPL best eleven so far
9. Kane 11. Sterling 7. Salah
10. Hazard 8. K D B 4. Kante
3. Kolasic (arsenal) 6. Stones 5. Azp (Chelsea) 2. Walker
1. De Gea
4-3-3
No eleven is better than this

Obere4u:


Klose will always be remembered for being highest goalscorer in a world cup and overall.

Fontaine of France that scored 13 goals in a single world cup (a world record) cannot be put in the same level with Klose and Ronaldo because he didn't win it.

You dig

Leicester City center back. The guy is good

Once upon a time Figo was the greatest Portuguese player of all time, but look at now.

Yeah true especially when he was at chelshit but Conte is fast catching up. At this rate, the sky is just the beginning

‘Yes, I must be honest, it’s happened again,’ he said. ‘Newcastle played on Tuesday night, we played on Wednesday night and now we have to play on Saturday at 12.30pm. I don’t want to complain but against Watford we should have played on the Monday and then they changed it to Saturday at 12.30pm after we’d played on the Wednesday but, okay, once it can happen. It happened for the second time against Manchester City. The third time you start feeling perplexed and now again against Newcastle.
‘I don’t want advantages for my team, I want the same rest as our opponents. Is it difficult to do this? I don’t think so. I think now there is a strange coincidence. I want to try to protect my club, my players and our fans. Also, I want to protect the league because if you say we have 11 points less than Manchester City, you must remember when we played them they had one more day’s rest than us. We played against Liverpool and Liverpool rested one more day than us and now again. After only 14 games it’s happened four times and now it’s very difficult to think that this is a coincidence, honestly.
‘If we have to play every two days I’m ready but we need to have the same rest as our opponents and then we’ll see what happens. If you give one more day of rest [to some teams] when you play every three days and you have injuries, you can find a lot of difficulties.
‘I spoke with my club and I hope my club try to do something about the situation because I’m trying to protect my club, my players and also the league. The Qarabag situation was incredible. I want respect for my job, my players, my club and the fans. This is the fourth time. I’m not stupid, if someone wants to joke with me I’m not the person to joke with.’




Mehn! Conte dey para seriously o and it is understandable.

That last paragraph though. My man don vex

English FA never helped epl teams to do well on all fronts. By february, most key players will look jaded, some will be injured, while some will play the season on pain relievers. While teams in other climes look more refreshed.

Depth is very important, we need to buy more quality players in January to make impression, the competition is rife.

exactly! It can also affect their performances in Russia

Ibime, Funlord, Airmark, what do you guys know about Usitech and buying packages from them. My bro just bought 10 packages for 230k, if everything works fine, in 300 days, he'll rake in 1.4million.

Ds one na sweet deal o.

Solid line up
Bakayoko back to where he belongs

Conte last season.... What a stupid fraud. So safe to say Conte is jealous of Man City's
lead not City's fixtures.
