For real? Do you have proof? You're the first person I'm hearing saying this.

I have said enough bro.

Considering the fact that his parents were murdered in cold blood during the kaduna crisis, before he moved out to the UK, Victor moses was actually doing us a favour. Alotta peeps here, won't have played for this country if they were in his shoes.

His parents were never murdered, they are hale and hearty in Edo State. That claim was an invention to get an asylum. Vicmo parents are still alive, so it was Nigeria doing him a favour after lying against Nigeria in order to get an asylum

Onauchu I heard yesterday walked like an electric pole all during the match

Tell me pls is it true

Dude can't press, can't defend, build up play not there and ball control nah all he does is to wait for the ball and score

Forget about the league, Sadiq is an intelligent quality forward. He is just like Isak of Real Sociedad

Allwell is just busy cruising around Owerri in SUVs with the money he made from his brothers transfer.

Well, the boys care little about their careers but they might regret it in the future if they aren't already regretting it. Just look at Amadou Haidara that was bullied in the midfield by Nwakali in that 2015 final

humility33:
Exactly
Oshimen then said his pastor advised him to pick Wolfsburg and today it all worked out for his good even though it was rough at the onset

The nwakali brothers would have become stars had it been they opted for Belgium or Netherlands clubs that really helped Chuks and Ndidi only Nacho proved successful thanks to Pellegrini

Why then did you say "exactly"?

Bros, Allswell Nwakali the greedy elder brother of the Nwakali brothers is the architect of the downfall of his two younger brothers. He traded their talents for few thousands of euros and pounds

andrewbaba44:
That Salzburg Na very correct team and now becoming a big team in Europe Because the talent there is much

Even Germany no get choice than to Dey call Adeyemi from there

Yea they are doing pretty fine churning out stars, but about that Adeyemi, Amoo is a better talent and plays more mature soccer. But while Germany is calling Adeyemi, our PHE master is overlooking Amoo

Kog45:
Yes you are right but Osimehn and Chuckwueze moves failed not that they don't want to join Arsenal.

I think agent need a role to play in deciding the future of these young ones....I can tell you much about Awoniyi Liverpool deal.When it came up oh my God there is no way to it than for him to sign....I think the economy situations of the country is a determinant factor.

Their moves didn't fail, they just couldn't agree to the terms due tonthe red tape rule. Apugo told Chuks never to hurry about the move that the coast wasn't clear due to the red tape rule, so Chuks came back to Umuahia to study other deals, then he finally settled for Villarreal.

After Osimhen was invited and showed round Arsenal facilities, he acknowledged them for the kind gesture but he new there was no future their, then he headed for Germany.

Nwakali was overconfident because he thought it was gonna be similar fate as Iheanacho's but he didn't know that "oke soro ngwere maa mmiri, ogaghi ako oke mgbe okoro ngwere"

Kog45:
Oga Andrew Liverpool,Arsenal came for you..just reason am now..don't blame those boys.Sometimes it worked out and sometimes it failed.

Arsenal came for Chuks and Osimhen too. Ajax and some other top European clubs renowned for youth developments outside the UK came for Nwakali. Omerou left his development in Belgium abi Netherlands to run to Chelsea. Bros, these things are all down to choice and foresight.

andrewbaba44:
Nobody might have advised them

The average Nigerian football lover sees epl as everything ,you no say you no go get chance to develope for arsenal and Liverpool but you go there

Oboy Mali's midfield will swallow our own in a bout, all thanks to RB Salzburg

There was one thing I noticed about Iheanacho's game in the match against Spartak Moscow. Dude kept making the wrong runs and getting offside, which was really unlike him, in two of such instances, Maddison and Tielemans were forced to choose Daka to lay off the passes that resulted to his third and last goal. I have been wondering if those were tactical moves or major errors on Iheanacho's side

kellycute:
Monster machine!!!!

He is the undisputed best striker in Africa, and among the top 4 best young strikers in Europe, argue with your akpa amu

We had this argument 7years ago, back in December 2014. Sir Icon4s do you think we have closed that gap or is this team still lagging behind, quality wise?

Icon4s:
How Nigerian football has deteriorated!
We dont even have 20-21 yrs olds playing top flight football in top leagues.
Most of these invitees are from Lower English, Scandinavian and eastern european teams. Even d ones in top leagues are still playing for the feeder teams or are yet to break in fully into d 'A' teams.

Compare with the Gold winning 96 team when:
Kanu was in Ajax (UEFA champions league winners)
Amuneke was in Barcelona
Oliseh was in Juventus
Amokachi was in Everton
Okocha was in Frankfurt
Babangida jst moved to Ajax
Others like Oruma, Ojigwe, Oparaku, Babayaro, were already regulars in their respective clubs.

All those Akpom, Semi Ajayi, Iwobi, Iheanacho, Yahaya, Success, Awoniyi are nt experienced enough for the U23. They are U20 materials.

If we dont have 19,20, 21yrs olds (dat will form d U23 in 2 yrs time) dat play top flight football in Europe then we should fall back on our local players.

Besides i am hoping to c d likes of
Abdul Ajagun
Olanrewaju Kayode
Michael Olaitan
Christian Pyagbara
Abdulahi Shehu in d team. Thèse are some of John Obu's last U20 who should b fully matured for d next U23.

As much as I love Onuachu, I think it is time to try other strikers to see who nicks that third striker choice spot. Onuachu is doing well at Genk same as Awoniyi and Sadiq for their respective club sides but, I would rest Onuachu for now to see what those other two can bring to the team. Onuachu is a good striker but he is static compared to these two

Mind you, I was the first person who started championing for Onuachu's call up back when he was at Mitjyland, especially after that goal against Manchester United, so your hater mantra is already dead on arrival

humility33:
Not only that bro
Check out most of Algeria, Morocco players they scooped while still in academics yet to hit limelight the likes of Mahrez

The best way to get this FBs is to scoop them early enough prior their Birth Country come dragging

Our FA is always slow and don't understand if it is out of non commitment to this function

Lol bro calm down. Those north African countries can easily recruit foreign kids from European academies because themselves aalready have their grassroots in order back home. They put their houses in order and left it in trusted hands before embarking on this journey you are suggesting. It has really paid off for them as they merge the foreign ones with the home grown ones. Nigeria can't do that otherwise our him grown talent will suffer serious neglect. In this part of the world, good management is a taboo.

That said, no coach has chased more foreign born players than SiaSia

I wish we could establish a good relationship with a modest European club renowned for grooming young talents. I mean something similar to what Mali has with RB Salzburg.

Salzburg has helped Mali groom quality young midfielders such as: Diadie Samassekou, Sekou Koita, Amadou Haidara, Mohammed Camara, Mamady Diambou and Daouda Guindo

I wonder why the agents of our young players don't take our boys to such clubs.

Look at what Nordsjland is doing for Ghana too.

When I look at Nwakali and Haidara, I say e no go better for whoever advised Nwakali to join Arsenal when he did. Awoniyi's Liverpool move was also ill advised

fabyom:
I watched both the Europa and Champions League, and Nigerian players are everywhere while only 2/3 players are from the other African countries. I don't understand the hype around these other so-called top Africa countries. Where are their players?

Are you sure of what you just wrote, or are you saying this because you don't really know the names of these other players from other African countries? Senegal and Morocco still have about 9-10 players each in the champions league ooo while we only have Chuks and Zaidu who have spent more time on the bench than in the pitch. And the way it stands, only Senegal, Algeria and Moroccan players stand a chance of going home with a golden medal in this year's UEFA champions league. Most of our players are in the Europa league and conference league

Our match. Is Nigeria playing? Napoli has turned to 'our'

I thought we were all Napoli FC

Onuachu against WestHam, let's go

Please what time is our match today and where can it be streamed or viewed?

mostob:
Lol. . my brother, that exaggeration is just to show you how frustrated I was that day. Moses wey suppose be our messi o, he started diving needlessly. E pain me that day

If only he knew how nauseating those puerile antics of his were for someone as muscular and strong as he. Isaac Success followed same diving route and i automatically took him off my radar too.

andrewbaba44:
If Moses had known he would sign a contract at Chelsea he would not have agreed to play for Nigeria according to you

What do you guys really want ?

Are you not still the same people crying that ebere EZE and Michael don’t want to play for naija even when they are even yet to be good enough for England or sign for a big team, but here you are saying if Moses had known he would be playing for Chelsea he won’t have played for naija

Moses give his best for naija and nothing can change it ,you keep on saying he do select games ,abeg say e get person wey select games reach Una legends okocha and co ?

You and who were crying over Eze and Oliseh?

This is ChrisKels you quoting bro.

Danielnino00:
It's a well known fact that Moses was picking games to play for the super eagles...
In 7 years with the super eagles,he manages just 37 games... In the whole of 2015, he played zero games for the super eagles... Always coming up with all sort of injury excuses while being available for selection at his club...

At a time when he started hugging news paper headlines at Chelsea, dude obviously became unhappy with his decision of pitching his tent with the eagles, he felt he was too quick with his decision and he felt he was with the wrong team, as his then Chelsea exploits would have gotten him some England caps. His body language alone gave him out. If Moses had known he was gonna be good enough to sign a contract at Chelsea and even win a starting berth, he wouldn’t have agreed to play for Nigeria in the first place.

Sportilitica:
World Cup for musa
Nations Cup for Echichele are the quickest that come to mind
My argument is not even for him to return but to label him as being uncommitted is unfair

One in 2013 and another after 5years says it all. Bro, we don’t need a player like Moses. Yes, we appreciate him for the time he spent with us, but bye bye to him.

Sportilitica:
They surely can but we have to be patient. Unfortunately time is not on our side. I would rather have an average winger who can put in crosses for our strikers though.

Can you name one or two instances Moses gave a cross for his team mate to score? Moses was always hugging the ball, going solo looking for the slightest touch to get on his canvass. Dude became a diver. After he joined Chelsea, If Moses was as disciplined in the national team as he was for Chelsea he wouldn’t have been on the bad book of the fans

andrewbaba44:
I don’t want Victor Moses back because he has retired and his decision should be respected

But I wish this comment was comming from someone else

You have always disliked Victor Moses bro so I don’t take you serious ,I wish another moniker said this

There is really nothing the super eagles will win again that Moses hasn’t won ,unless we are winning the World Cup

Wetin musa dey even offer the national team for now ? There is no day you ever hide your hate for Moses

Moses is not committed according to you but he has helped the eagles qualified for the World Cup twice and he was crucial

To even make it worst your preferred wingers hasn’t even given us vicmo performance for the eagles

Your hypocrisy Na world class .

Lol I was a big fan of Moses until he started acting like a demigod. I was his fan until he started picking games for the super eagles. If you are amnesiac, I’m not. You were not here neither were you with us at kickoffNigeria when we started rooting for Moses’s call up back when he was at Wigan, so don’t say what you don’t know. I still remember how he was avoiding our away games with some flimsy excuses especially during AFCON qualifiers, that is not what we want from a supposed leader. Lol I’m not attached to any player, I will praise you if you good, but when you start feeling like a god, I trash you. If Moses was still with eagles he wouldn’t have honored the call up when we played against Benin away, you can take that to the bank.

Did anybody send him away or did he leave on his own? Don’t expect to get the same Moses you see in club jerseys because dude is never committed to our course. He plays any role assigned to him at club side but comes down here acting as though he was doing us a favour. Dude would set a bad precedent, so I would rather Musa remained in the team than entertain the thought of asking Moses to rescind his decision of quitting the national team. He should enjoy his premature retirement abeg

I hope Soumare plays for Senegal abi Mali. That boy is superb

Daka should never be left on the bench. That boy is a striker and he knows how to beat the offline trap

cc12:
Iheanacho with his second assist of the match.

I hope he nicks the winner

andrewbaba44:
Chuks is better than Kalmaurudeen

Who is Gyasi and where does he play ?

I don’t think African teams are very close in terms of players quality

Imagine the insult oo. Gyasi of Spezia ooo nawa for Fabyom

fabyom:
Salisu and Amartey, EKong and Balogun same level. Kudus and Iwobi same level. Partey and Ndidi are on the same level. Wakaso is not a starter. Iddrisou/Duncan and Aribo/Onyeka are on the same level. Andrey Ayew is better than Simon. Kalmaurudeen is on the same level as Chukweze. Gyasi and Nacho are on the same level.
We trump most of the teams on the bench! All the top African teams are very close in terms of player qualities. Senegal relies mostly on Mane, Algeria on Mahrez!

Iheanacho is way better than Gyasi. Wakaso is preferred to Duncan and Idrisou by Ghana coaches, Milovan Rajovic might change the trend though. Yes we trump most of this teams in depth not quality. About Senegal, you are totally wrong to say they rely on Mane even though he is their star player

It has been a thrilling 45minutes of soccer
