I watched Onyeka trying to make these kind of passes yesterday It was like watching a fowl trying to bark like a dog He kept on miss hitting them to Osayi and Aina. And they kept giving him the thumbs up after every mishit in salutation, I wan laugh die
Dominic Solanke in place of Osimhen cracks 6goals in this AFCON group stage. Joshua Zirkzee is probably the most skillful striker in the world currently. Hope we get atleast one of them onboard. We need a different striker profile to what we've got currently.
forgiveness: Nwakali anchors but what about other parts?
Tackling, running, tracking, defending etc. If he add these to his game, he won't be where he is today.
Best player of U17 for that matter.
Players of his skillset aren't runners. They make up their lack of pace with good anticipation and space management. I feel Nwakali left Arsenal too soon, since he left Arsenal youth loan managers got better with Matersacker and Edu coming onboard.
Nsue is the best EG hv and if they hv another striking option playing and doing well in one of the top leagues in europe they would gladly hv the player in their team
All this one na to mk case for nwakali? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mk una dey deceive una selves
You don't have any midfielder with the passing selection or range of Nwakali, not even Iwobi. If you had such midfielder playing in Real Madrid no sane human being will mention Nwakali.
Mujtahida: He's not even a striker for his club. He's a RB!
Nsue was supposed to be a promising striker for Spain. We played him at U17 and U20 in 2007 and 2009 respectively and he was phenomenal. I was surprised to see him playing for Guinea years back and his club career never hit the top.
M7even: All these ones na still assumptions. Uzoho could have been there and we could be on 6 points as well. Mine too is another assumption. So let's stop all this capping.
Why aren't we on 6points at the world cup qualifiers?
What kind of football did CAF commission for this tournament? Is it the jabulani? The speed of the games are breathtaking and the goals are flying in like crazy. Pure madness here
Goke7: I thought I saw it all with Algeria vs Burkina Faso, I no know say Mauritania go give me plenty vibes like this If I was in the stadium, my match ticket expired with that first-half display, I suppose pay extra for the second half.
Its bang bang bang football. Siasia and Pitso should be managing at this level. 3-2 now Hahaha
If not for the security nightmare, it would have been worth it for Nigeria to host the Afcon. It's overdue but the timing is not right for even the foreseeable. Sad
Wow! Wow! Wow! The Afcon is looking more exciting than the Premiership. Never thought I'd say this. Incredible football being played here. No team parking the bus.
Starboytwo: Those guys are truly Stallions. They dont stop running.
They are so skillful. Truly a fantastic, my favourites in this tournament. They will beat both Senegal and Morroco. Abit of a back story, their coach, Hubert Velud was shot in the arm back in 2010 when the Togo team bus was attacked enroute Angola. He has unfinished business with the Afcon.
Burkina Faso were my personal team of the first round. I was really impressed with their game play. It's 1-1 now but I have my money on them to beat Algeria
yinkeys: Let’s not get ahead of ourselves now One game at a time We should live in the moment lol Still a long way to go Still got good teams in the tournament CIV coach goofed for not inviting Zaha
Zaha never settled in the dressing room. He was like a fish out of water because he couldn't speak any French. He's had serious issues with assimilation due to language barrier that's why he hasn't blended with the group since his debut.
Joezinho: E sure me die say most people here nor sabi ball.
I nor sabi ball too but some people here are worse. Most of them are quiet because they were eagerly waiting for peseiro to fail so they can come out and scream, ” we told you so!!!” They can’t even criticize Osimhen because of selective amnesia. 😅😅
You can ban me or delete my comment but being nairaland famous is like being Rich in Monopoly..
You're being hilarious. As if Bassey have been world class over the past few years for club and country. His ill-fated time at Ajax is still fresh and the comment you quoted was on a match day Bassey gave Spurs 2goals.
Let's enjoy the win and not bring unnecessary negativity. We have suffered enough from minors getting results against us, going entire calendar year without a single win and even our world cup hopes in jeopardy. Pipe down
Uzoho rode on the Deportivo Lacarona tax to swindle past Super eagles handlers. They believed since he made a few cameo appearance in Spain, he was the best goalkeeper for Nigeria regardless his many personal errors.
We have been suffering and waffling about with Uzohos and the likes when we have competent hands who can do the job.
Switch up Uzoho with Nwabili, we would have qualified for the last World Cup. But you know, Uzoho trained at Deportivo and Nwabili was in the Nigerian league. Never again!
