England would have been better if all the great Britain nation play under one national team. They have lost out on some great players.
I can think of 3 solid examples.

in the late 70s/ early 80s when peak Dalglish could have joined peak Keegan in attack for possibly the best partnership in Europe.

And in the late 90s/early 2000s when England had no LW and would have benefitted from Ryan Giggs skills.

Then Gareth Bale. Nuff said.

I stand with Owen sha.

There is this general disrespect he gets because of the way his career went after he turned 22.

The truth is that the Owen that won the Ballon d’Or at 22 was already a shell of the player he could have been.

I remember the time a player like Henry was rated below Owen.

His birthday is in December so he is within his right. He turned 18 halfway through the season
Which kain amala turning is this?

He turned 18 in December 1997.
He won the Golden Boot in May 1998.

When he won the Golden Boot he was 18yrs 5 months old not 17.

Owen came out swinging.
He tried but he subtracted one year from his age.
He won the Golden Boot and 18 and 19 not 17 and 18.

His overall point is valid in that he was the better striker at that age. Rooney was the better overall footballer at that age.

I wish the National Team will be disbanded if they miss this WC. I don’t care if FIFA suspends Nigeria for Government interference. Shame and these guys in the same sentence? Naaa..If they have any shame, they would whoop SA on Tuesday. When I say whoop I mean, serve dem 3-0 for their home.
Why should we be struggling to beat Rwanda at home? I went through their starting lineup. They all play in 2nd rate leagues in Africa. The only person playing in Europe is their striker, who plays as a LEFTBACK in the French 4th division. They also someone in Azerbaijan league and another player in the 2nd tier league in the US.

Nigeria is about to miss out on a 2nd straight World Cup. This generation of players should be ashamed of themselves.

I just stumbled on the Super Mario Bros game that was first released in 1985. Fond memories. I used my saved pocket money to buy the Terminator Game Console that we used in playing Super Mario and other games like Contra, Duck Hunt and Mortal Kombat.

I literally trekked to school for a long time just to save N850 which I used to purchase the game. This was in 1996. My house became a theatre, always filled with friends until Popsy seized the game and asked me to concentrate on my books. If you get this game console that year, you be sabi pikin.

How many of you saw the princess at the end in Super Mario?

I hope you are not trying to sneak in Bruno Fernandes into this world class discussion because it won’t work.

As long as you play for a big team, you should be decorated with titles to be recognized as a world class player.
Which kain paranoia be this? grin grin grin
What in his post suggested a Bruno agenda. You are seeing imaginary things based on your agenda-filled spirit. LOL

There were 3 boys in secondary school named Kalu. All from Aba.

All of them had Kalu as first name and surname like Kalu Idika Kalu. They were the ones that educated me about Abiriba and Ngwa militant cultures.

[color=royalblue]Nope. You are not wrong.

He was born and raised there, but he's not from there.

Just like Olamide is known as a Lagos boy. Mostly identified as a Bariga guy, but he comes from Ogun state.[/color]
I am yet to see a Kalu or Kanu not from Abia state.

It is like they prefer to use Kamalu instead of Amadioha.

I just watched him play for the Under-21s and he was probably the worst player on the pitch. Maybe he is just rusty sha.

3rd ex-United manager sacked in a week.

Is it coincidence or have we just been appointing otu oshi managers?

If we can get him to sign a professional contract…we don try. That way we can at least get something for him— unless we bottle it as usual.
It is out of our hands.

He can change clubs at 16 but he can sign a professional contract only at 17.

This is why we were able to get Chido Obi from Arsenal. This is also why Arsenal gave Nwaneri his debut at 15 to show him their belief in him.

Do you reckon they’ll fast track JJ Gabriel to the U-21s this season? That U-18 looks too easy mode for him
He will definitely play Under-21s this season. Most likely 2nd half of the season or maybe after he turns 15 in October. He won't be small like Lacey, but he is still a bit skinny so they will be just a little cautious with him. He is looking like a Greenwood level talent at that level or maybe even better. If his physical development continues and he has no injuries he will be a top player because his technical level is sky high.

Problem is that he is a Barca fan whose favourite players are Messi and Yamal and he has a diva father. Due to the fact that he has an EU passport, when he turns 16, we will face an uphill task to keep him.

That tackle by Zubi was disappointing, it led to the goal. He should have allowed the player to, there was no need to challenge the ball.

Afrodoc afrodoc2 did you watch the U-21 Manchester derby?

Oni and Ibragimov scored. 2-1
Yeah, i did.

Lacey came on late and created the winning goal that Ibragimov scored. Ibragimov was also a sub because he played yesterday for the Under-18s (and scored as well).

It was a decent team performance but no standout amongst the starters IMO. It was only when Lacey came on that i saw real flashes of brilliance.
