Nico Gonzalez who was stolen from Barca via Porto?

Now replaced by Anderson who was stolen from Newcastle via Nottingham Forest.

Lmao

izzou:
This one pain me.

Was rooting for them as the African country to go farthest

Well, make I change am to Ghana and CIV


Once again, Tunisia is maad

Same here o

iamoyindamola:
Senegal might not make it 3rd best is already filling up

Na Senegal of all people no qualify

While the likes of Ghana Southy Ivory Coast even Algeria and capeverde might scale through

afrodoc2:
He is a very good player and might end up being a better player than someone who is a generational talent. But once again, my own definition of a generational talent is something that was obvious to everybody before you turned 20.

A generational talent can lack discipline or be wrecked by injuries or bad luck and not end up being a generational player. A player who is not a generational talent can sacrifice and put in extra hard work and develop into a generational player.

Fairs

You are spot on

Roland17:
Way past his time. He has no business starting for Germany, irrespective of the injury to Ter Stegen. That 2nd goal was a howler from him. He should be trying to punch that but baba went for the catch inside a crowded box..

Why I mentioned stegen was because nagelsman called him his first choice before the long term injury ,just maybe he would have been their gk ,even when stegen was better then Neuer base on form he didn’t get the chance ,I think the 2018 World Cup or so

Neuer is among the goated gk ,but he is way past his best , Nubel should have been their starter at this wc

Capaldi:
This is the 3rd world cup in a row Neuer is embarrassing himself.

Shey they have refused to retire him ,he came back after retirement again

I blame nagelsman,and ter stegen long term injury also didn’t help

raumdeuter:
Man city sign Elliot Anderson for 130m Pounds

Illimitable is he worth that amount

Man city sha

Wetin dem wan use this signing do ?

I pity Nico Gonzalez

Bluelines69:
Na them need win o, Germans no really send….Valencia no be am at all

Yeah they need the win to qualify

Enner Valencia Dey play like bag of beans

Ecuador Dey dominate Germany so far

afrodoc:
Haaland, Mbappe, Yamal are the only undeniable ones.

It depends on one’s standards for generational talent. If we use quota system and eye of pity and under duress, Vini, Pedri, and maybe Musiala can enter.

What about Michael Olise ?

A40:
This format will cause a lot of gbege. Some big boys will not make it past Round of 16

The World Cup makes it easy for you to qualify for the next round ,but at the same time e be like gbege go plenty from round of 32 to the quarter finals 😁

chrisooblog:
I can see why you have misgivings about Vini's generational status but then it's hard to ignore what he has achieved with Real Madrid.

I would say let this WC be the litmus test. If Brazil wins it with Vini being front and center then your debate ends if not then it continues.

Vini na world class player ,proper baller

I even defend him from Madrid fans/mbappe sexuals at times

I don’t see him as a generational talent sha ,maybe I am wrong ,but this is just me

afrodoc:
Messi
CR7
Neymar
Haaland
Killah Mbappe
Yamal

Okay agreed but I no want make you add Messi cr7 and neymar sha

iamoyindamola:
Kopalma
Mumuduke
Savinho

Chai you no serious 😂

chrisooblog:
outside the obvious ones Messi and CR7 I would say Yamal, Vini Jnr (debatable admittedly), Kane, Mbappe, and Haaland.

Na vini I Dey argue with person

i said he is very good but not a generational talent 😂

Abeg make una give me like 5 current players wey una think say he generational talent 🙏

I Dey argue with person

odizeey:
If my fellow blacks can support Argentina, why won't I openly support my fellow black brothers who have been misguided.

Which of your black brother ?

Potvalor:
Tears ke? Even Neymar wey Brazilians typically rate among their GOATs never played a WC semifinal or even win a Copa America, na kon Vini you Dey expect to win WC?😂

We just want our boy to enjoy, baila, dance, and have a good tournament. A semifinal finish with good stats would surpass our expectations o😂

You go explain tire with your tears .

Potvalor:
At least his form is better than your Raphinha with zero WC goal or assist to his name at 29yo 😭😂. How come? He also only has a single goal at Copa America with zero assists there too. Unfortunately, Vini needs better supporting cast to enjoy a better international career, and players like Raphinha (the supposed 2nd best Brazil player?) with their poverty tournament stats aren't helping matters😂.

Save your tears

At the end of the day make e no win the wc first

Ibime:
Congrats to Xenophobia

And somebody said Nigeria will not qualify from the group South Africa just qualified from. SMH

There see many group Naija will qualify ,like many ,but if I talk now dem go say we no come World Cup ,so I won’t blame them

World Cup now don easy pass before ,make fifa end am here sha ,I hope they don’t change it to every 2 years

Potvalor:
At least the whole "international career" diss, haters typically use to belittle Vini would reduce after this 2026WC. 4 goals and 1 assist so far, among the leading contenders for Golden Ball/Boot. Finally living up to the tag of "Star Player of Brazil", you would love to see it!🇧🇷

Dey play

They have to bring ancelotti for Brazil for him to perform ,the same coach who improved him at Madrid 😁

popizaino:
Mbappe has to score against Angels and démons before i will consider him better than R9.

R9 no be anybody mate

Mbappe ke ,e no reach

Ibime:
No carry agenda come my side abeg.

Alvarez couldn't put up decent numbers in Man City when Haaland got injured and his numbers in Spain is quite pitiful

You can say he isn’t worth that amount which is true

You want a bench player to be putting decent numbers at city ? Oya nah

49 goals in 106 games is almost 1 goal in ever 2 games ,na him be pitiful ,yet your legend na drogba 😁

iamoyindamola:
Emphasis on open play

No be even that open play matter self

Ibime:
That's why I no longer pay attention to Champions League goal.record with the new format

That's why a dud like Julian Alvarez will have 6 league goals from open play in the easy La.Liga but be priced £160m.cos of stat padding in Champions League

You had to call Laliga easy when it’s clearly not ,but continue

Even a brainless player like igor Thiago is doing 20 plus in the epl

Capaldi:
Don't let anyone gaslight you into retracting this statement. Some of those past legends are very very overrated. Nostalgia won't make people accept it. You just have to watch past games on YouTube to see it.

If many past legends Dey overrated ,it’s not r9 Henry cruyff or Ronaldinho

He had to sneak in drogba who doesn’t belong there ,he is the only overrated legend there

michigang:
andrewbaba44 come and tell us who approved the purchase of this guy cos i don't see any specialty in him

I just focus on madueke yesterday as if this Gordon even sabi self

Like I said he is not worth the 70M we paid for him ,he is a 40/50M player

Secondly the only reason I am not worried is because of Hansi flick

iamoyindamola:
Remove rice and his yellow
He's useless in defending

Rice is a careful guy ,I don’t think he will get another card

This game deserve to end 0-0 draw

But watch England scam a win here

Sportsweb:
🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Djed Spence ignored Thomas Partey and did not shake hands with him ahead of kick-off.

Why nah

Na wa o

So jarrod Bowen self no go wc ?

Omo tucheliban really do things sha

Madueke na tuchel Lamine yamal
