Keep bursting their bubbles please... They are unrepentant English fanatics but God pass them

Did you know when Ebere Eze was called alongside Aina and Akpom to train with the Eagles, komekn criticized that action saying that bringing Ebere was an insult to the National team, but today Ebere looks like the next big thing and no one wants to acknowledge that foresight of Pinnick and Rohr.

I don't forget easily, hence I will keep bursting their bubbles

tbaba1234:
Awaziem starts again, this time in the center of defence

Lol Ilori would have been best suited

forgiveness:
Coming from a Minister in the temple of justice.

As if u didn't know it was a tongue in cheek. Abeg shift make we celebrate our boys making us proud

tbaba1234:
Shehu was excellent in the last few qualifiers.. He is no slouch...

No doubt about that but he's got a big fight in his hands. I love the competition

One commentator just said "that Umar guy is a nightmare to Eredivisie defenders" lol barely two months after joining them.

They will now downgrade Eredivisie because it is Umar showing his stuffs but when Solanke was with Vittesse, the league was hyped to high heavens.

I will keep bursting ur bubbles

tbaba1234:
Some were good/decent.. One was wayward.. In terms of crossing, Aina is the best crosser.

The bolded is of the reasons I said Shehu is the odd man out in that right back battle. He's got a mountain to climb and I'm loving it (the competition).


Just imagine Umar ahead of Kelechi, flanked by two wing wizards like onyekuru, Moses, Simon, iwobi, or a healthy Bazee. This is post Russian but feasible in Cameroun to start with.

gbosaa:
Hian, why would i swear or curse at you? I love football bro, I would have done the same thing you guys did depending on my mood...Either poke fun at the op or politely refer him to the error. I was not offended, no need for that.

I have watched and followed the national teams from under 17 to the Super Eagles. Enugu Rangers remains my favourite team. I'm quite strong on names of players and the period they played but for some reasons, I had a 'blonde' moment there trying to recall the time line of Kingsley Michael. I would have sworn he played with Iheanacho and co from under 17 in 2013 to under 20 in 2015. I'm glad someone corrected me. I would,ve noticed my error maybe after reading it again in six months or next year if no one had pointed it out. It was a mistake, it was no intention of mine to mislead anyone.

I left New Haven ages ago and not sure if the tournament still holds. You guys there should prevail on the head of the school, your councillor to assist.

Chai tiri gbosaa for u bro!! Respect!!!

tbaba1234:
Sadiq Umar is enjoying his eredivise adventure.. I think, he is better than this league but not yet at Serie A level.

I would want him to spend one more season here but with a top club like Ajax, Feyenoord or PSV. My opinion though

tbaba1234:
Sadiq Umar... Baller!!!

Wins a penalty off the defender with a powerful run

Ebuehi team down to 10 men. Defender red-carded

Please stop that nonsense, Umar baller? Umar that can't make England's regional leagues is a baller to u? Hmmm

The Umar I'm seeing is miles ahead of Tammy and he can stake a claim for a place to Russia since we wanted to take Tammy to Russia. But let's allow him grow sha. He should keep up the good work for Qatar.

forgiveness:
I think say you no like better things wey come from English?

See confession.

Unlike u controversial biased guy, I love English bred Nigerian stars as much as I love their counterparts all over the world. I just hate it when u and komekn put down the locally bred stars just to make ur English boys look like demigods.

I'm following most of these anglonigerian kids possibly better than u do. I must say, Onyedinma has impressed me, Bright Enobakhare too but u won't see me here over hyping them like u do. I can only report of their progress as I report of ipalibo, chukwueze etc. I was so hapi Ademola left England for Germany too bkus I blv leaving his comfort zone(England) will give us a chance of capping him.

I can go on and on...

AIG07:
Sir Chriskel and Elyte89 don de form bad ass partnership for their comedy show.

Thumbs up to Sir Gboosa for taking it lightly.

Couldn't help myself but laughed out.

Seriously if Gbosaa wasn't an oldie, he might av cursed the hell outta me.

To sir Gbosaa nwa 042 ibe m, ekenekwa m gi. So u played with Orjinta at the popular New Haven primary school pitch? Abeg u elders should come help repair that pitch because it is a dead zone. If you tackle person for Dat pitch, bruises go full ur body. D last time I played there, I was scared of taking my bath when I got home

tbaba1234:
Ebere Eze scores the winning goal for QPR in the Championship, First start... Biko, we should keep a close eye on this boy... Talent!!!

Honestly that Mbaise boy dey ball. I took time to see few of his games the other day and I was wowed by his level of improvement.

If he maintains this growth, he would find himself in the EPL soon. He is doing exactly what Gray was doing at Birmingham before Leicester snapped him up.

Nigeria has too many awesome kids coming through. I must commend Pinnick for his insights

What's Iheanacho's best position on the pitch again?

Honestly I saw a glimpse of Iheanacho of 2013 this evening. Threading good passes in the midfield, assisting and scoring.

Some people won't like his

komekn:
What goof With regard to Ebuehi can you be specific

Oh you've forgotten Ebuehi will struggle to make it into English academies?

TheSuperNerd:
Oga Chris.... Abeg no kee me with laugh... Looolll.... Just correct am again naa.... He took the correction for Idowu already.... Lol...

Anyway, Sir Gbosaa... Kingsley Michael belongs to the 2015 class of The Golden Eaglets aiit. He scored one for the three goals in that quarter final tie against Brazil. A game in which Osimhen was so beastly.

Idowu as already told to you is 2013 class with Iheanacho, Yahaya, Awoniyi, Ndidi (was part and parcel of that class even tho the MRI denied him a place at the African championships and WC) and co.

Lol the Nerdy bwoy, sometimes we just come here laf comot stress.

After taking d correction from tbaba1234, he gave a good description of idowu but out of no where, he crowned everything with a poo.

At Dat point, I fainted.

I can sight my oga MetalJigsaw peeping from the mpio (window). I hail thee Baba mi

elyte89:
Gbosaa!Gbosaa!! Gbosaa!!!

See eh Elyte89 when u came here newly, I wasn't really a fan of urs but my woman was. She is a regular silent reader here and whenever you post those comic comments, she will be like; Hello Bobo m, it's Elyte89 again hahahaha. Biko I say make ask u, u be comedian for real life? I for like carry her come ur show

komekn:
I will not tag you anti- English but I will say you are emotively biased against Tega. Firstly, they are completely not on the same level.

But before we proceed I advise don't believe everything you read, I would say that's false news.

Sadiq is 21, he is not outstanding in any league he has played. Lukaku who was an outstanding talent didn't even get to play any reasonable number of games irrespective of his huge price tag at the time. Sadiq is not as good as Lukaku.

In comparison Tega Abrahams played 48 games in the Championship and scored 26 goals. Has played 79 senior professional games and scored 33 goals. You could call him a seasoned professional at his very young age. In the EPL he has scored only 4goals after 23 games there is much room for improvement, it's simply not good enough.

Umar Sadiq a total of 17 career games and 3 goals at his age of 21 at this stage he should be established. He is barely knocking on the door of a professional career. The way football is progress by 21 you should be showing ability not just promise.

I am sorry statistically he is a non-starter compared to Tega. With those stats he will struggle to get a national league side forget the championship or even league 1 .

Did I just read u describe Tammy as a veteran? Dude is best described as a one season wonder. U truly are so funny some times.

About ur last paragraph, I would be the last fool to take u seriously after your last goof with Ebuehi.

gbosaa:
Thanks for the correction. Idowu played in the midfield. Very energetic, a fighter and had good vision. For some reasons he reminds me of Kingsley Michael of 2013 class of Eaglets.

Akinjide Idowu hit the bar against Spain with David Degea in the post also he reminds you of Kingsley Michael of 2013..

After all the corrections from tbaba1234 Chai, this one weak me.

Elyte89 baba, give this guy Tri gbosaa!!!

andrew444:
I will never argue with anyone that tammy is better than this kid or no,thou umar sadiq has not played much game in his carrier.

Tammy is not a good player,people want him in the national team because he is brought up in england,most people on this thread think anybody brought up in england is good enough,now tammy is stuck on the bench of swansea,he cannot even bench jordan ayew,Tammy is not that a good player,that is how one guy here is making noise that seyi ojo is good enough for super eagles,the guy is just making mockery of him self.

See eh Andrew my guy, that Sadiq boy is about the only Nigerian youth player I can vouch for that he is playing with his true age. Another guy is Awoniyi.

People started berating Sadiq because he was overhyped by our media enroute the Olympics, hence high hopes were placed on him. He was decent, in fact he gave what he ought to, considering his age. I never thought him a poor player at the Olympics because I saw he was a kid who needed and still needs proper guidance to harness the abundant talent he possesses. He is now coming of age and I must say he hasn't disappointed me because he is making the right waves. When they trashed my opinion about him and Tammy, I didn't bother engaging them because I knew the time of reckoning was already beckoning. I also told them Osimhen was a better striker than their Lord, Solanke, I believe with time, they will agree with me.


BTW, I pray Nura scales the challenges he is facing now unscathed because he is another super talented kid.

CHELSEA SET TO SWOOP FOR ROMA’S YOUNG NIGERIAN STARLET
BY TIM GARRETT
IN PREMIER LEAGUE,TRANSFERS - 20:00 MAR 8TH 2018

For young players in the modern game, it’s increasingly common for a loan move away from their parent club to be required in order for them to make their name. High-profile stars such as Harry Kane and Jesse Lingard are currently profiting from following this path in England, and the trend is being followed across the continent.

21-year-old Nigerian U23 international Umar Sadiq is one such player currently thriving on loan. Having been starved of opportunities at AS Roma in the early stages of this season, he made his move to NAC Breda of the Eredivisie at the end of January and hasn’t looked back since.

Sadiq may have only appeared 5 times for his new side, but reports in Italy suggest that he has already done enough to alert the attentions of Chelsea, such has been his impact.
Prior to his arrival, NAC had just a 19% win ratio as they toiled at the wrong end of the table, but that has rocketed up to 40% for the matches in which Sadiq has appeared, making his influence clear for all to see.

Athletic and technically gifted, there’s no reason to believe Sadiq would be anything other than a success in the English game, and if his current form continues, Roma may well find that it’s not just Chelsea who come knocking at their door.
—KickoffDotCoDotUK

When I said this kid was better and more talented than Tammy, some misguided fellows tagged me an anti English players. Now his parent club has just confirmed it by eyeing my boy instead of bringing back Tammy from loan

Clementoke:
What of Udoukhai, Torunarigha and Akpoguma.
ChrisKels.....Hw far na?

Chriskels never said they would make the March list, did he?

Mind u, I only talked about Uduokhai who has shown interest and I also stated that Rohr isn't that eager to have Toru anymore after Idowu' showing against Argentina and of course Ojokojo's (Toru's father) insistence on his ward repping the Germans. About Akpoguma, I rate Omeruo higher

Though this ain't no big news because Ilori did better when he was in ligue 1, but cheers...

Chidozie Awaziem Makes Team Of The Week In France After Stunning Display At Left Back Against Marseille

Super Eagles defender Chidozie Awaziem has once again made the team of the week in France after his strong showing for Nantes in their 1-1 draw against Marseille.
The on loan FC Porto defender returned back to the starting line up after a two weeks absence from the team due to injury, and he didn’t show any sign of rustiness throughout the game.

Awaziem lasted the entire duration of the game, and his performances has earned him a spot in the team of the week in the French Ligue 1 for the fourth time this season following his move to the club on loan.

He was particularly impressive against Florian Thauvin despite the French man scoring a late equaliser to earn Marseille a point. Awaziem didn’t lose a single tackle against Thauvin and also looked solid in aerial duels.

His overall statistics in the game reads nine clearances, three interceptions, passing accuracy of 57.1% with one of the four long balls he launched getting to his teammate. In terms of duels he won nine out of the 15 duels he contested in.

Van Persie on Sadiq Umar


''The young striker ( Sadiq Umar) had a good game. He was unplayable and used his size to good effect when on the ball. We have to pick ourselves up and get a result in our subsequent games and not dwell too much on the loss”

_{in ur prayers please do not forget this budding talent, Nura Abdullahi}

Heart problem stops Nigerian defender’s career


Nigerian international, Nura Abdullahi’s budding career with AS Roma has suffered a major setback as doctors has advised him to stop all sporting activities with immediate effect.

Nura, 20 on loan to Perugia, signed a four-year contract with Roma in 2016
for €2.5 million and may never play football again until doctors certify that he is out of danger zone.

Roma and Perugia received the scary news inn Monday morning when it was announced that tests on Abdullahi revealed that due to his cardiovascular system, he should stop all activities.

“On Wednesday 28 February, full-back Nura Abdullahi underwent scheduled cardiological tests. The results of the tests made it necessary that the player stop all sporting activity for a period of 30 days.
“Following the completion of that period of rest, the player will undergo further tests.’
The diagnosis of the young Nigerian is coming barely 48 hours after the death of Fiorentina and Italian player Davide Astori from suspected cardiac arrest.

Abdulahi was discovered by Kaduna- based Future Africa Football Academy before he was transferred to Football Academy Abuja.
It would be recalled that Nigerian legend Nwankwo Kanu was told he may never play football again in 1996 because of a heart condition.

Kanu’s heart problem was spotted during an examination by Inter Milan doctors prior to his Serie A debut.

Moses Odubajo back training after 19 months out.

This is a very great news. I av always wanted the best for this guy. Dude already said he wants to represent Nigeria. He was very good before the unfortunate injuries and its relapses. Come next season in the championship, dude will be taking his place as Aina must av been long gone and playing probably in the EPL (I envisage South Ampton). Hopefully, Hull doesn't get relegated to league1 this season.

Post the world cup, the right back position will be about the most competitive position in the Super Eagles.

Ebuehi, Aina, Shehu, Nura, Odubajo

On the fringes (prospectives) ; Ehizibue, Egbo et al

somehow:
To compensate him for his services done for the nation and for all the qualifiers he played but if he's not fit to play football, he'll surely be dropped by the coach.

Azaziem can fit into a 3-5-2 formation since he can play LB and LCD comfortably.

In this context, that bolded word translates to sacrificing quality, integrity in the altar of mediocrity and deceit. It's shape in or u ship out. No sentiments

MetalJigsaw:
This guy has greatly improved.

Yes bro and we are happy for that.

BTW, elyte89 and I bn dey wave u since, u just do eye like say u no c us. Nawa oo. Hope u had a nice weekend?

safarigirl:
thanks for this update

Awaziem shirt sure for Russia

Sure ke when forgiveness is saying his place is up for grabs? Ilori and Iorfa would bench him

Even as a left full back, Awaziem was the best player on the pitch for his team in his first match after a long lay off. And 3rd overall best player for both teams, behind Tauvin and Payet . It ended Marseille 1 vs 1 Nantes

Modified ; Thanks Nerdy, it was a typo

AIG07:
Football is all about OPPORTUNITY. Rudiger is an example. I don't think Omuero plays bad than this guy. He is Chelsea's version of Akpeyi.

I actually thought I was alone on this. I don't see why that guy shouldn't be playing in the he championship. He is so poor. I would pick Omeruo ahead of him seriously

chrisooblog:
This same yobo was there when angola beat us to qualify for the world cup in germany 2006

This same yobo was also there when we were embarrassed at 2010 world cup against the likes of south korea and greece

The same yobo was there and played a prominent role in the AFCONs we failed to win. It was only when keshi gave him seat belt on the bench that we were able to win the 2013 afcon

If my memory serves me right mr yobo's last meaningful contribution to the super eagles was scoring an own goal against us for france. So please leave us to manage our so called less quality defenders

Our quality players are in England. The likes of Iorfa. Dude has been so sad that Iorfa is being overlooked. It beats me how u guys take a guy who said Ebuehi would struggle to get into English academies, seriously most times.

Rohr planning to hand a call up to SC KRIENS Sebb Osigwe?
