Icon4s:
I am shocked that no one in that Supersports studio is aware that Burundi are not out.

Burundi just needs a win against Guinea and finish 3rd and wait for other 3rd placed teams to emerge before knowing if they will be among the top 4!

For Yobo I am not surprised at his poor Permutational ability. After all at the 2010 WC after we lost our first two games he said we were out, not considering that we could still qualify if we beat S/Korea by any margin in the 3rd game and hope that Argentina beats Greece.
His default thinking is once u lose your first two games you are out

Again, 2011 qualifiers, a 2:1 win would have seen us through but we ended drawing 2:2 due to our pushing forward for a 3rd goal. Yobo was busy blaming the NFF for not telling the team that a 2:1 win was enough

Recall also how the Nigerian press declared our golden Eaglets as having qualified for this year's U17 WC because we won our first 2 games, and not putting all the 6 group matches into perspective.

We here really need to organize a course on Football permutations for many of these press men and football analysts.

Guy why u still dey this level nah? u are better than those guys over there honestly. Make a case man, make a case

I say make I dey follow the match online, she begin complain say I no dey give her attention nawa, that night was hell. When we scored I heard shouts from the viewing station, I wan cry buh I had to pretend and act cool though I was visibly sad.

Mind u, she no be ur regular girl, babe was worth it and guess what, I succeeded in making her an Eagles/Barca fan though she dey vex me anytime wey she dey praise Ororo over Messi

TheSuperNerd:
But it's a Sunday. Why so impatient sef? Where are you in a hurry to Chris? To meet up appointment with your Senegalese concubines?

Bro I av learnt my lessons, I dont give women appointments on Eagles' match days, after what I suffered in the hands on my then new catch during my undergraduate days. Babe no gree me commot for night go watch Nigeria vs Bosnia match, say I dey take the match over her, the thing vex me no be here but I had to dance to her tunes because it was her first night in my house chai.

Chisom Mbonu is growing prettier as she ages, whoever is the husband is doin a great job.

Away from sexism, that LADY sabi analyse football, I hope safarigirl gets to that height and even better, but she must shun looks bkus handsomeness doesn’t give a team an edge

Humility017:
I think the match is 6pm

It's better be 5pm, I am growing tired of waiting mbok

Joebie:
Ogu is most likely in the left side of the DM position.
Welcome back Ezenwa. Make a case for yourself because i dey fear Akpeyi. Akpeyi is a mistake waiting to happen

I feel this match is to prepare Ezenwa for the riggurs of the KO stage. A good showing today and he is there already

Starboytwo:
This list Sha....hall of famer list...

Bro the list dey reset brain, ask oasis007, though gustav25 na another man entirely

do4luv14:
i dont want to talk about Ahmad, cos he isnt clean, and if not for pinnick, this ongoing Afcon might had been thrown into chaos, which may result to it being postponed

its pinnick recommandation that was adopted, which sees fifa taking over, thats Afcon is holding so

The bolded is supporting my view, he is succeeding in endearing himself to the heart of FIFA, this will in turn favour him and make Ahmad the black sheep. Lets watch this drama as it unfolds.

Algeria1 I can sight u viewing, what have u to say about the Afcon so far?

Truidstar:
5pm

Oh thanks a bunch

Here is the 1st official picture of First Nigerian national football team as the team arrived Liverpool on
Monday August 29-1949


The team.. Amusa Shittu, Daniel Anyam, Titus
Okeke, Isaac Akioye, Sam Ibiam, Etim Henshaw
(Cpt) Peter 'Baby' Anieke, 'Thunder Balogun, S.
Dokubo, Kanno, Tijiani Ottun, Chukwura,Lawson,
Anosike, E. Ebenezer, Dick, Onwudike, and John
Dankor.

Please guys, what time is the match? Na 5 abi 4?

U heard it from here first, Pinnick has his eyes on CAF seat as the supremo. Man is a gaddem politician and he knows his onions. I can see his antics, dude is setting Ahmad up for failure, gradually and should Ahmad get caught in the web, Pinnick would smile. He had his reasons for putting Ahmad in that seat, and then get himself rooted as the assistance after Ghana's Nyantaki ouster. I smell a rat, especially with the probe Ahmad is facing now.

komekn:
Who give this guy Morocco Igbo smoke and Sapele ogogoro take wash mouth.

Something must be wrong oh.

Hahahahaha bro morocco no get strong batu oo, oshogbo weed na the koko, but if u wan form swag, coordinate Colorado or Arizona blawz

Nothing is wrong bro, na just say u dey do well diz days

komekn:
How did you come to that conclusion ❓

Osimhen has played effectively one season of first team competitive football. He has scored 11 goals in the Belguim league and is in the top ten top scorers. The top scorer in that league had 20 goal.

Osimhen did very well but he his not the best or youngest striker or in the top 5 in that league. It's a VERU GOOD start for his first real season of first team football.

Now he has to build on that performance his next club is very crucial. He must not follow the €€€€£££ signs. He is still developing so needs to get a lot of game time and not become a reserve striker in a big club and therefore stagnate his progression.

In one sweep you have dismissed Ighalo, Onyekuru, Musa, etc Players who have been tested and tried over a few seasons and have performed in thier respective clubs and leagues.

You show no respect to these players.

Seriously komekn u making me proud these few days, u making alot of sense, honestly. I just hope u dont go back to that figure that makes me go wild. Bro I KPOM this ur post jor, u just spoke objectively like a man who knows the game inside out. If ur views were this undistorted by emotions and personal bias, I wouldn't have been coming for ur jugulars.

Make I no too celebrate for now bkus a tiger they say... But for now I must commend semid4lyfe. His list is doing magic

Starboytwo:
You guys are actually arguing Football matters with southi Why, ehn why....They don't even come close to our little sisters, this time I'm not even saying Ghana, cuz Ghana is bigger than them x20, I'm talking Benin,Togo etc....

I wish we participated in that 1996 Afcon, abacha see wetin you cause, ehn, see wetin you cause...ok...

I wonder why they are giving that boy airtime, South Africa aint worth it. They want a footie rivalry with us, but they aint got what it takes. I can take a Ghanaian, Ivorian, Egyptian et al who can give us a regale of points to debate on, but, SA? Maybe I am being chesty like they always make of us, that makes them feel we show unwarranted important of over bearing pride, but, guy I maintain standards, SA, I reiterate aint in that class FOOTBALLICALLY, to argue with me as a Nigerian, maybe, politically.

fabyom:
Cameroon had zero shot on target in the second half.
Ghana came to the party yesterday.
Had it been they took their chances, they would have won convincingly.

U this man, u too dey under rate our probable opponents. Ghana came to the party, yet, in the first half, they had zero shots on target while Cameroun had two? Y u come do selective report nah? Oboy easy oo

Humility017:
because you Didnt watch the last game...
it is not about your height that tells if you're a good header of the ball...
sometimes you still need to position and add force to it whenever you head the ball...

onachu is like tall for nothing...he barely can't do that.

Dude, Southgate was right, Onuachu never got any good crosses. We never took advantage of his height in that match, reason I missed Kalu in that encounter.

komekn:
I am quite SHOCKED that after all you have read here and exposure to informed substantive commentary.

You made the proposition in bold.

Onuachu is quite possibly the tallest player in AFCON. Because he has height and most importantly aerial dominance. He has positioned himself in that area cohere has the most competitive advantage.

A ball crossed to him in that area is not 50/50 but more like 70/30.

Its a big shame that our wi gers lack capacity and cannot cross q ball properly. Pin point accuracy is simply not within thier ability.

A ball delivered correctly to Onuachu has a good chance of being a goal.

Onuachu has good positioning and spatial awareness. However can any of our wingets cross the ball accurately, with pace and pin point accuracy ❓

In his last game l don't think he got any accurately delivered cross.

Bravo komekn, Bravo. I know say I no dey too agree with u, but, in this case, my hat's off. Agreed without any iota of reservation.


The list seems to be doing wonders already

TheSuperNerd:
Chaaaiiii.... Chriskels oooooo.... Loooollll... But Chris my dad is right. You don't have Moroccan citizenship. You talked them up but you no get their Citizenship abeg. First you are a Senegalese by permanent adaptation, then you married an Ivorian and was bestowed with their Citizenship as you did them a favor donating your handsome genes to their nation and you are a Nigerian only by birth. Three Citizenships you have and two which you regard most have fallen thine hands while the citizenship you most abhor has become the king of the afcon dance so far... Lol

Bia Chris.... No blame my papa for your losses oooo.

Go cry in peace...

Nekwa ya ebe a, nwanne m nwoke. Ndi ebe ka anyi si na ntanet bu agbara, o naghi echefu ihe

Icon4s:
You and your diversionary tactics. Show me where I said you were over rating Morocco.

So because your over rated Senegal and Ivory Coast have disappointed, you now want to apply your diversionary tactics.

If you like make you blame Icon4s for the defeat of Ivory Coast and Senegal u here?

Here it is, February 10th, the internet never forgets

Earthquake3:
You couldn't be this football savvy in your life

Na to come nairaland come insult you sabi, I'm done with you

Afcon Talk


Morocco's starting no.9 is a 21-22 years old Youssef En-Nesyri of Leganes CF in La Liga yet they have a vastly experienced Khalid Boutaib on the bench.

I feel in time same will happen for Nigeria. In Osimhen, I strongly believe we have a true heir to Yekini's throne. His youth should not be despised. The lad is ready to lead the line. His scoring stats and wicked improvements over the past months show it. He dropped down to the U-23 and singled handedly turned the Libya tie in our favor showing his talents are really too much for the U-23 level which of course is a good thing. He is a born scorer, a ready made warrior upfront and he is fearless and above all, very Clinical.

Osimhen's time is near. It is his era now. Ighalo should be ready to make way at the latest after this Afcon. Ighalo is experienced and suited to African Jam body football... Yes, I agree. But Osimhen also knows how to go rough and physical while also applying intelligent Clinicality in front of goal. Despise not the Precocious.


Note: My personal wish is for Nigeria to win it and Ighalo to be top scorer continuing his top scorer form from the Qualifiers but I know Osimhen is his upgrade for both now an in the long run.

U were here when I was raving about him this past season, they(Icon4s especially) said I was over rating Morocco. I have been following the boy because of Omeruo. Did u see his record breaking hattrick in the laliga? I tell u bro, En Nesryi is good. Both foot are working and he is a very big threat in the air, his positioning is KPOM also

Humility017:
Lol...I pray e pain me..
the first time I saw it I was not happy about it...
but right now I have adjusted and I don't have any problem with it....that's just his opinion and it does not make or mar me.

I noticed it. Initially u were like, "how could I possibly be put in the same category with gustav25 and darkelf?" Then, u didn't see it for what it really was/is, "a joke"

Danielnino00:
Bros how far..

Have u placed the bet on Madagascar holding us to a goalless draw??

U mean his 100naira bet? Whenever the boy places that hungry bet, him go begin avoid krattoss and Curtisaxel7 like plague bkus dem dey hammer him no be small

Humility017:
I don't want my name removed...
let it remain there...
that's his opinion...... if he knows so much about football...he would have a been a pundit by now in one of the TV channels or probably be a coach...

every one reserves the right to air their opinion and if he feels that because I aired my opinion I should be in such a list his mind coined.. that's is opinion and it does not change me one bit.

I am currently sharing those links because my phone permits me presently......and we are in afcon season not to get validation from folks I don't know even in real life.

My guy this thing dey pain u, talk true

gamaliel9:
Where did Stephen Keshi blossom? Siasia? Oliseh? Celestine Babayaro? Amokachie? Ndidi,Kalu,Moses Simon? And now Osimhen,etc.....I was doubting your inclusion in that list by semid4life...now it is confirmed....I AM CERTAIN NOW...... YOU BELONG THERE

U thought I was joking when I called for his name to be registered there? That boy knows nothing about football.

I have all the videos of our trainings pre matches, even the last training with Madagascar in sight, I wouldda loved to post them here buh it ain't working. U need to see these guys in training. The Eagles is one big family. Some people promised us that they will be in Egypt to help us with dis kinda videos but... Even James Bond wey say him go drive via Spain to morocco to Egypt las las, all na wash. But dont worry guys our CEF (Eagles nest) paddy and my good friend, Larry is live in Egypt and he has been feeding us with great videos from the training ground and fun times. U can easily see these videos if u a member of Cmoke's CEF whatsApp group.

Oasis007:


Someone has been doing his best to get his Name off the List, yet it's still rather super-glued to it.

God u nearly made me choke on the bolus of semo I was about to swallow while reading the comment. What wickedness

fabyom:
Tau better than Mikel and Iwobi? Lol! That Guy should be number one on that list.

The guy made sense by saying that some of us were over rating our team, but he was wrong to have compared Tau to Obi and Iwobi. Tau, to me, should be competing with the likes of Michael Babatunde and Kingsley Sokari
