Wow! She did well too! But Effiong, Taiwo, and Harmony are the team Superstars.

The team is complete. The defense, midfield and attack were awesome! What a team!

Even the subs! Phenomenal!

Sharp

elyte89:
We re taking maximum 6points from SA

I can no longer say this confidently after watching them in Ivory Coast

Marjoribanks:
At the female level, we produce superstar midfielders.
The gap in quality between the Falconets' midfield and that of the Golden Eaglets is enormous.

Are you watching the match? How is my girl's performance so far? Funke Kudirat Arogundade? I have always seen a great future in her and back in 2021 I told her she was good enough for the Naija junior teams. I was not surprised when I saw her name on the list.

Komekn shld disappoint us one day and just post a pic evidence to back up his claims dt truly he speaks with dis players

He knows shit and doesn't speak with no one. Nobody sabi am, and him no sabi anyone.

Docherty is capping for the press.

Oviemuno and Lookman where among several players who came to the London screening which he Docherty was a part of at the time.

But they were not selected Ovie was at Arsenal then and a top prospect. Ademola at Charlton.

And I've spoken to Ovie and several other Nigerian origin players. The NFF officials are preoccupied sorry obsessed with cutting ✂️ deals with agents on behalf of players. These are players willing to sign and do anything for the dream of playing in Europe.

Out NFF officials are merciless predators in it for one thing personal interest. The exception to that is Finidi.

There is corruption in the England selection as well however as you get to U18 it gets reduced but not wiped out.

And many Nigerian origin players would rather choose Nigeria at this over England believe me I know what I'm talking about.

When Doherty talks, he backs it up with both quotes, interviews and pictorial(videos) evidences, but you want us to overlook that in favour of your usual cock and bull stories that are always devoid of substance? Mai'friend will you shut up there!!!

Marjoribanks:
Without Osimhen we are not beating both SA and Benin!

I just have the feeling we are going nowhere

Osimhen is a big doubt for our world cup qualifier clashes against SA and Benin.

elyte89:
Alaye ,we go beat that SA JARE …na Benin 🇧🇯 b d main match

I no dey see Benin and their coach.

Marjoribanks:
Rwanda stands a better chance than SA!
Reason: SA will definitely lose away to Zim and draw Lesotho.
Our most difficult game will be Rwanda away.
Getting that draw away to Zimbabwe put us in a very good position.

I rate SA ahead of others because they look more organized and formidable. We don't look serious, so I don't see us beating that SA team that I saw in the AfCoN

Personally, I think SA stands a better chance of making it to the world cup ahead of Nigeria.

When Finidi wan drop list?

SA's coach, Hugo Broos has named his squad to tackle Nigeria.

The type of hatred that exists between Morocco and Algeria ehn, if left unchecked, they could go into a full blown war.

Marjoribanks:
Isaac Success looks so fit and balling!
I believe Boniface needs to shed some weight.

He is looking too big and unfit!

Boniface doesn't look fit to me. I would take George Ilenikena over Boniface.

I'm not comfortable having Amokachi as Finidi's first assistant or member of back room staff.

TheSuperNerd:
Just pointing out a few for now...


#10 - Simon Cletus. Was in the last U17 under Ugbade's tutelage. The "dada" lad who came on vs Burkinas faso and impressed in midfield with his intelligence and touches.

#11 - Oreoluwa Olawale Agbenla from Beyond Limits FA. Exciting midfield talent.

#8 - Edward Oloche Ochigbo from Sporting Lagos. Decent player.

#9- Rapha Adams. Watch out for this kid. Could be a joker in the team.

#18- Daniel Vowero Arierhi... brother to the exciting Beyond LImits FA top striker, Arierhi Kparobo. Daniel is just as talented and decent.

Let's hope Manu and the crew gets the best out of them at the Qualifiers starting in 4 days.

What happened to those Ugbade's boys? I mean Divine Ekeh and co?

Olowoporoko is hugely talented and I hope he bags a contract with Betis

Napoleon55:
Aluko played for Nigerian U-20 team with Ighalo and co. hope u know that.

He did not progress with the Super Eagles mainly because he was not better than those who progressed with the eagles.
he was not going to keep making the team when we had Mikel and few others who were better.

Everytime any player fails to have a long career with supers eagles is always the same story,that the coaches or the NFF demanded bribe from them or one ridiculous story or another.

Most people who didn't make it with supers eagles are either they were not good enoug or that other players were better than them at that time

LoL I don't agree with that Peckham crackhead but bro Keshi and Amokachi did Aluko dirty. Who were these guys preferred ahead of him? The likes of Babatunde Michael, Gabriel etc? Aluko was impressive in the matches he played for us especially against SA where Omeruo was räped by Tokelo Rantie. Aluko was creative but Keshi would rather pack 100 defensive midfielders than provide a place for Aluko. They did him dirty and that was one of the reasons I didn't like Keshi.

Some interesting names from the NPFL on the provisional list made recently by Finidi.

Finidi not interested in going to ask any foreign born player to play for Nigeria instead he is determined to make the team attractive so that foreign born players will be the ones asking to be picked.


This is how it should be.

Marjoribanks:
Adebayo should be invited asap! What a goal! Luton equalized!

Why did the commentator refer to him as Emmanuel Adebayor?

https://twitter.com/centregoals/status/1786479015412261280?t=yNI0O8JGtUOPu000UcCTqg&s=19

We are over relying on our current forwards while doing nothing to breed their possible successors because I don't understand why we have not called up a striker like George Ilenikhina. This kid is wanted by Inter Milan

TheGoodJoe relax nwanne. We should be talking about how to pass this world cup qualifier hurdle, not debating over who should have been the coach or not. We already have Finidi, so let's give him a chance and the support he needs.

Oasis007:
Finidi George is right man for the Job and he is gonna succeed. JPes was written before last AFCON began on this board, yet he guided the team to final but lost to a host nation.

Finidi is being written off by some on this board, but I see positivity cos it means he is gonna be successful.

He is a fan of Nwakali

komekn:
He has a lot of hurdles to overcome at U18 & U20 levels before he can get into Brentford first team.

Comparison to Bassey is premature in the extreme.

You really are such a clownish dimwit. Where in my post did you read comparison with Bassey?

elyte89:
Bro who u even support to coach us sef…me Amunike finidi or foreign coach 😀😀

LoL I don't want a local coach. I was thinking they would appoint that Dutch coach that Owngoal once speculated about.

Kog45:
Talent no Dey hide.I saw this guy Benjamin Frederick in Ilorin playing for ABS during my vacation in 2022 and was like wow what a player.Good that he is getting contract in EPL

Him and Bassey will hold down our defense for years.

etebefia:
Fredrick

This boy is definitely gonna cook either for Brentford's first team or somewhere out on loan.


Whoever gave Daniel Daga his date of birth really did him dirty.

Looking at this stat and the logic some people apply here, Saka is better than C Ronaldo was because when Ronaldo had those stats, he was running at unfit defenders that drink and club all night, unlike the ones Saka faces today.

E dun be for Sadiq Umar

Joebie:
Wait! Peseiro still never find work?

Who wan give am job with that rubbish he displayed in Ivory Coast?

Finidi is our new coach

lbrichman2:
Westham interested in Victor Boniface..
Guy should stay put in Germany abeg

No abeg. If they are so desperate for a Nigerian striker, they should go for Taiwo Awoniyi
