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...

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

Hahahahaha sorry if gambling is what it means to be football savvy, then, count me out. I dont gamble bkus my morals forbids that

TheSuperNerd:
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

Make una enjoy our boys gyrating with Toni OneWeek's ever sumptuous super eagles gyration.


Modified: sorry the video no gree upload, nairaland say e too large

TheSuperNerd:
Hahahahahahahahahaha.... Chriskels... Abeg contact Semid4lyfe to update that list. We have a new #1 on that list.... Lol

Sure bro, but, Komekn will have to make that list first before him. To me, this guy is more reasonable than komekn

komekn:
What's so good about that news.

The Belguim league is not a top league and you really have to be in the top 5 best to really get noticed by the big club and or leagues.

U have never hidden ur dislike for the Belgian league, what he posted was a good news to us, if it wasn't to u. Our best players today went through that route, hence the ecstasy. Onyekuru, Osimhen, Awoniyi et al never played for the top 5 best yet distibguished themselves and got recognized. BTW, the guys he reported about all joined teams that finished 1-4,how is that a bad news. Always endeavour to make proper findings before coming here to vomit. U really do know nothing about this round leather game outside the lower leagues of English football.


Semid4lyfe please add this man to that list abeg mtcheew

darkelf:
Which list is that?

Since u want to feign ignorance of the list, here u have it;

semid4lyfe:
Meanwhile, people wey no sabi shishi about football on this thread are:

1. Darkelf
2. Humility017
3. gustav25

Mind u, this list has not less than 20likes and 10shares

andrew444:

Lol wetin dey make u smile nah?

andrew444:
Lol
Okay sir

Kul.

darkelf:
That's where you get me wrong

What you just said about the quality of our opponents, I said after our match against Burundi and I feared for us against Guinea especially with the bonus imbroglio. I'm happy we stepped up against the Guineans even though I downplayed our chances initially.

However, I still think we may come good against Morocco and the likes

I kpomified this post. In fact one hot okpa nsukka and a bottle of La Casera for u. I'm gonna ask semid4lyfe to delete ur name from that list, OK?

andrew444:
Even a mad man will not say guinea is better than civ

Ur choice of words are uncalled for. The guys that made the claim are implying that, but, that doesn't mean they are mad. Watch ur tone please

darkelf:
Now, If I called you a pessimist for this, I would be wrong but it is the sad reality. I'm eager to see what we can do against Egypt, Algeria and Morocco.

I am not a pessimist, neither am I delusional. I am only being smart and cautious. This isnt same as u who doesn't see any positives at all and u are always quick to rule out our chances.

andrew444:
Bros no come use sa against us nah

Haba ,we are miles ahead of them and you know this

Were u beaten by them or not? Does that make us a weak team compared to them? This is to tell u that Guinnea finishing ahead of the CIV, doesn't make Guinnea a better team than the CIV

tbaba1234:
Guinea finished above Ivory coast in qualifying

Burundi is the worst rated team in this tournament, plus SA beat us at home.

elyte89:
Dt Guinean team is a gud team,not even Senegal/ivory coast can beat dem.easily

Thats true, just the way u would have defeated morocco if they were in our group. U dey funny.

Just calm down, we are already in the knock out stages where the chaffs must have been left on the lurch.

tbaba1234:
Bafana Bafana is a terrible side.. How did we not trash these guys??

Now that tells u alot about the ineptitude of the coward we parade as a coach. Imagine playing 3-5-2 against these clowns. Tufiakwa Rohr is poor

realpoacher:
Abeg make una go drag @chriskels come here

Who are the real carpenters now?... Imagine fa, after burning my data to watch these subcontinental derbies only Mali stood up to be counted.

Senegal and Ivory Coast went AWOL. No coordination, no crisp movement, no penetrating or deadly attacking intent.


Yet christkels will not let us rest on this thread. Face it man, your adopted countries flopped when real men were called up to be counted.

@Addrew44, even you too.

What is the essence of big name players yet no quality play?


The coaches of these countries too are classic examples of what we call "Mutulas"

CC christkels
CC andrew44

Do u know Nigeria hasn't played any top team in this tourney, neither did we win convincingly against any of the lowly rated teams we have played against? Do not over rate our achievement so far. Be mindful of ur choice of words, until we play a team as good as those teams u trynna mock

Ivory Coast does not have a coach
