Great goal by J.O.E. This kid is in another zone. Sad for Debbie, as Pitt and Randy crash out of the NCAA tournament, having won the most games ever in the Pitt program. Lost 5 games, out of 24 matches (including pre-season), with 3 of the 5 losses to No1 ranked FSU. Bascovanveli2: Jennifer makes it 3-0 vs Pitt. Seems Debbie's season is over |

Don’t believe she’s ready or good enough. For example, she always throws her arms up whenever she heads the ball - a very backward way of heading. Thats a penalty waiting to happen. Not only that, she seems quite slow on and off the ball. BascoVanVeli: Comfort Folorunsho |

Hint...never said the ladies you mentioned are not Naija age. In fact, in all likelyhood, they all are. I wasn't going to name names... Deltamani: Whaooo just because it’s Maureen Umeughochukwu now she’s no Longer 21yrs and her age is Naija Age, but the likes of Demehin, Monday Gift, Peace Efih and Ucheibe that are of age bracket are not Naija age but Foreign Age😂🤗😂
Nawa… Anyway what matters here is her doing well and playing at the top for level when given the chance to play for the SuperFalcons, I do tip her as Osinachi Ohale successor💯
But wait ooo in 2010 Osinachi Ohale walk in straight from the U20 to the SuperFalcons Starting 11 where there were Big Defenders like Christy George, Ulunma Jerome, Lilian Cole and Kikelomo Ajayi on the verge of retirement then.. |

Randy gave Macleans a chance and it was clear she wasn't good enough. She blew her chance, just as Roosa Ariyo did. I also see the social experiment the Madugu coach performed has failed already.
The Falcons need to infuse 3 players at the moment: FW: Edna Imade - 5'11 Granada CF striker MF: Elisha Sulola - 5'10" CF Valencia Midfielder CD: Maureen Umeugochukwu - (Deltamani's favorite) The first two are young and have a very bright future ahead. I have little confidence the age Umeh is purporting to be is correct (Naija age).
And no, I am not a fan of Gift Monday, as she is very inconsistent. |

My error Deltamani: Wasn’t expecting this kind of Mistake from you…. Esther Okoronkwo has played ( league games this season scoring (2).
Again she was on the Bench on Saturday (18/11/223) here but didn’t come in..
She Started their 2nd to last game which was on the 12th here against Levante Las Planas..
Then how come she hasn’t played for 4weeks as you have just said..?? |
Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 11:32pm On Nov 20, 2023 |
Yes, my bad GeneralDae: If I'm not mistaken, I think Okoronkwo played two weeks ago when Monday James scored two goals. |

As usual, the NFFs stupidity reigns supreme. Both Echegini and Abiodun’s teams will clash in the NCAA women’s Soccer Championship elite 8 on November 24, with one of them going into the final 4. So definitely, one of them will be unable to attend the match. Yet the bufoons who drew up the list didn’t even bother to check and make sure those being invited did not have any previous engagements. Also, the stupid selectors failed to realize that Okoronkwo has not played a match in close to 4 weeks, and then you pile the team up with some no namers who are simply not good enough to play at this level. What a bunch of morons! lovewins: I hope this puts to rest those who were insisting Randy drew up the previous rosters. |

I am sorry, but y'all are grossly overrating these two young ladies. They are up and coming, but certainly NOT anywhere close to Caicedo. No way! Honestly, Onyi is good also, but is not that good in comparison also. We all need to temp down all these comparisons, as neither of the three ladies in question even play (or have ever played) at the level and caliber of competition as Caicedo. Deltamani: Ajakaye is definitely not up to Linda Caicedo level yet even though she’s very quick which is her major asset..
As for E Onyenezide and F Sabastine they ain’t far from it maybe I will give Caicedo 70%, Onyenezide 55% Sabastine 55% all over 100%
I will rate Onyi Echegini at same level with Linda Caicedo and the only difference been that she isn’t Playing Pro yet..
A 5% difference btw both.. but Precision in front of goal Onyi is way better than Linda Caicedo. |
Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 3:54pm On Nov 18, 2023 |
Ah ah...'Calm down', Deltamani - as one of the contributors on this forum always says to me  . Look, Caicedo is ranked this high for a reason and yes, she IS deserving of the title. Salma only blossomed for Spain at the world cup (where she was not even a starter until later on in the competition) and before then, was a bit part player for Barcelona, where she was also a bit part player. Caicedo, on the other hand, played in ALL the grade level WWCs and excelled. She was highly instrumental in making Colombia reach a quarterfinal spot. For me, Caicedo was more influential to women's football than Salma was this year. By far and very well deserved! Deltamani: Ajakaye is definitely not up to Linda Caicedo level yet even though she’s very quick which is her major asset..
As for E Onyenezide and F Sabastine they ain’t far from it maybe I will give Caicedo 70%, Onyenezide 55% Sabastine 55% all over 100%

She won 2022 coach of the year for that. Are you saying she will win it on that account again, in a WWC year? All the nominations from Nigeria were largely on account of our WWC performance. In light of the above, I ask again, what has been her body of work in 2023 that is deserving of a 'coach of the year' award? daveP: you have a point but winning wafcon will make her take this. |
Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 3:22pm On Nov 14, 2023 |
Again, what was Ellis’ body of work in 2023 that makes her more deserving of Coach of the yr? Nigeria had a way more challenging path in the WWC than any other African team and left due to penalties. We played 3 top 10 teams, 2 of whom made it into the semifinals (England and Australia). Randy definitely performed much better than Ellis. Not even close! daveP: That's true. Ellis and Nnadozie sure |
Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 3:16pm On Nov 14, 2023 |
This shouldn’t even be a debate. Not a single one of the others played every single minute of the WWC and excelled. Demehin all the way! daveP: Demehin vs Comfort
But this should be Demehin's imo |
Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 3:13pm On Nov 14, 2023 |
Coach of the year Desiree Ellis on account of what? WAFCON was last yr - she hardly did a damn thing this year. Okay, SA made it to the rd of 16. But they lost to all the top 10 teams they played. Randy played 3 top ten teams and didn’t lose a single game in regular time. That was way more difficult than SA’s path. lovewins: Coach of the year should be Desiree Ellis
GK of the year is undisputable Chiamaka Nnadozie
Young player of the year is Blessing Demehin, Ajakaye isn't even top 3.
Player of the year is between Oshoala/Kundananji/Kgatlana/Chawinga/Nnadozie |

Cut Nicole some slack. She’s still a kid playing with a club side consisting of some of the very best players in the world. She is tracking very well for her development. Took a bit for Imuran to debut but see how well she has progressed so far. Congrats to Nicole on her debut! Deltamani: League debut..!

That person cannot be a woman. That is a grown ass man! I don't know why Africans like to deceive themselves. Deltamani: Her goals single-handedly eliminated Cameroon U17 over a year ago during the U17 World Cup qualifiers and she trended because of her Physique then..
I guess you didn’t notice then, she’s playing in Saudi Arabia now..
Watch that Clip and see how she plays, more Physical than the likes of Banda and Chawinga I think.. https://www.youtube.com/live/mVPbVxWZL5g?si=NZXcgI2mxa9HXLkg |

Well, it is. Next thing would be another Onyenezide acolyte will build off his comments and accuse the coach of not liking her and preferring his ‘favorites’ (to respectfully burrow a word recently used in a recent debate on this forum). BascoVanVeli: It's not that serious. All he asked was a question |
Sports › Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 3:13am On Nov 09, 2023 |
Perhaps some simple homework on your part would have shown that she was born 6/30/2003, meaning she is not U20! solonnachi: Why Esther Onyenezide was not invited to the U20 squad still beats my imagination |

Another left footed box to box CM on the radar and soon to be reconned with is Elisha Sulola, who made her debut for Valencia CF in Liga F this past week. Tall and skillful, a very good dribbler and passer of the ball as well as rugged in the tackle. She is 22. Naija's SF midfield is stacked with really good, young and upcoming players. Exciting! lovewins: It's what I said. Wasn't impressed at all with her in thr first game, but she put in a lot of work yesterday. I however don't see how she fits into the team with Ayinde and Christy present. She has a better chance making the team as a DM than she does as an offensive player.
BTW, JOE was just name ACC offensive player of the year.
I posted this before I noticed you have updated the thread about JOE. |
