BascoVanVeli:
I'll take Semi over Tosin. For me they cancel each other out defensively but Semi is much better on the ball.

Lol this is funny.


Well, I have my eyes already on Ben Chiemela Fredrick of Brentford as a partner for Bassey next season

I hope everything is fine with TheSuperNerd? Dude has neither been active here nor on Twitter. It is unlike him, especially during tournament seasons like this.

komekn:
First of all, let me quote you verbatim,

We have our own proven way of getting getting quality players thru the production line and that is the youth team.

In addition to get context the examples you gave Taribo, Kanu ,Okocha, Babayaro, These players went literally straight to first team football in Europe from the Nigeria local ⚽ league.

VO went from a local football academy in Nigeria avia National u17 football accolades.

These are two dramatically different pathways, during the period of Taribo players went straight from local clubs to European clubs not ACADEMY. For example Amokachi ,Keshi, etc.

VO arrived at Wolfsburg as a youth player into the academy, same followed for Awoniyi, KC, Nwakali, etc. Where they began to be reducated, developed, taught and train to become professional footballers.

So please 🥺 what is the PROVEN WAY ❓

Oh VO got re-educated at Wolfsburg but you made it seem he was a failed pro from Nigeria. So all those while you were talking down on him, you knew he was still learning the ropes?

komekn:
Thank you 👍🏿

I really don't know why Tim Iroegbunam was not invited. Dude is an exceptional player.

He now caught up in football financial politics, Villa lost Carney Chukwuemeka and don't want to loose Tim Iroegbunam.

And are restricting his game time to force him into a long term contract. Tim Iroegbunam would jump at the chance to play for Nigeria he is off the radar.

As a player he will dominate the midfield, accurate long & short passing, serious physicality with pace and technical ability and tackling with added Aerial dominance he can't be less than 6' 3'.

Answer these simple questions like a mature man who knows his left from his right;


Is Iroegbulam rated by the handlers of the English youth system? If yes, what makes you think Iroegbulam would want to trade a path that leads to the 3lions for a place in the SE midfield?

On paper this should be the number 1 CB pairing to this AFCON.

Ndicka and Diomande

AndSunGorilla:
@Charlesemeka85. Charlee, you think Olise would really help Utd? Is it true that Casemiro wants to leave? Is this job bigger than Ten Häag??

Maazi Emeka, meanwhile this our midfield for AFCON still be worry me. If we go all the way, am not sure someone like Onyeka can play the whole tournament without getting injured. Alhassan and Iwobi sef get their perennial injury issues, perhaps am overthinking? We need at least one more midfielder in that team just so we don't overwork Onyeka and Iwobi or any 2 MFs JP will start with.

Man don't you think this is so petty trynna rat out a fellow or you think we don't know what you did there?

Kog45:
5 stars.👍

Some of these people in here just like giving themselves false hope and building castles in the air. You dey eye Tim wey dey dun already crown the next Jude Bellingham 🤣😂

semid4lyfe:
For this post, I banned you for 24hrs. Hopefully, you'll be better behaved when you return.

LoL this Charles boy sef

When the tournament dey start sef?

charlesemeka85:
Baba I don’t regret not having the duo of Tomori and Abraham but just saying that the former deserves a place in the English squad. He is too good for not getting a look in by southgate and would hv been a household name in international football if he played for us our Canada 🇨🇦

He doesn't see it that way, so it is a waste of energy feeling bad for him.

charlesemeka85:
na Tomori own Dey vex me pass

That guy is too good and should be a household name in international football. Even if he didn’t want to play for us he would hv played for Canada

The guy matter dey vex me

That is where you guys get it wrong. To them, it is not about the playing time, it is rather about the badge and the honour that comes with the tag "a 3lion player or an ex of it". They don't care if what they get is just a minute in a friendly match.

They are so passionate about the badge, so you guys should rest because Tammy and Tomori are already satisfied with the little opportunities they have gotten. They would rather those few minutes with england in the euro league than world cup appearances with an African team.


North Africans find it a bit easier to get their boys from Europe because of their Arabic/Islamic belief.

It is 2024 and some of y'all still wallow in delusion. What ever makes you think one of the most important players of the English youth set up would abandon that path that leads to the 3lions for a place in the super eagles set up.


We have been here multiple times and we know the results.

Tim una 🤣😂🤣😂

charlesemeka85:
Ndidi’s rumored withdrawal will open una eyes to how good Raph Onyedika Nwadike is

Ndidi wasn't there in our last two matches and the mugu that called himself our coach still kept Onyedika on the bench while playing Iwobi as a DM. What a joke this man is.

I wish the team the best but I don't expect nothing from them.

Kog45:
I don't want to say anything now till after Afcon....hope Peseiro do justice to that midfield but anyhow I want to see this boys in eagles soon.

I don’t expect any miracles with JP as the coach.

charlesemeka85:
After the afcon, I will love to see the integration of players like Tosin, Igoh, Alhassan,Tella and Akor to the super eagles

Tella should be Musa’s automatic replacement in the team

I hope Akor moves this winter. Both WestHam and AC Milan are good options.

Joebie:
3 Things I want to see after Jpes is gone:

1. Adarabioyo coming to us
2. Integration of Alhassan and Nwakali
3. Solving our Goal Keeper problems once and for all. The solutions are there. We need a coach to put in the work.

Getting Adarabioyo to pair Bassey should be the first thing after the AfCon, if we really want to get hold of that first position in our world cup qualifiers group.

charlesemeka85:
sure he will. Many do forget that he is still very young with huge potentials to become top class LCB in the nearest future

Not too young for a CB. He is already 24

daveP:
The best news of the year for Nigerian sport. Only a trophy win can eclipse this. I hope those old bags don ruin the mood.



Ghana going to Afcon with twice the size of our midfield. Says alot about how our coach and nff thinks. Smh

Your second paragraph isn't entirely true because Ghana listed their wingers/wing forwards as midfielders. That said, JP should leave this team as soon as the AfCon is over because I can't just get why he decided to go with 25players when he could take 27

Calvin Bassey looks destined for a bigger team soon. Dude has been immense since moving to LCB position, and I pray he doesn't let up.

charlesemeka85:
he should join juve abeg

Lookman is going to Inter Milan in the summer.

Not expecting anything special from this squad even though I wish them success

charlesemeka85:
no idea at all, maybe he was rewarded for his hard work in training by his club’s coach

Just discovered that the supposed first choice - Silvestri was dropped due to poor form, and unless Maduka messes up, he is Udinese’s new numero uno

charlesemeka85:
the boy made the best decision to be away from the national team for now

If Uzoho get sense and shame him go do the same 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You don't know how glad I am he made that decision, especially after their last match?


Any idea why he was chosen to man the post against Bologna? Was the supposed first choice goalkeeper on the bench?

charlesemeka85:
that one dey but banter n cruise follow for wetin dey spice here up once in a while

Peace

andrewbaba44:
As we grow older it’s a blessing

E no easy

How does this correlate with asking him to act his age, you this charlatan?

Where in the post you quoted was his age ever made fun of? Growing old is a bliss but it even more when you act it.

charlesemeka85:
forget about been in my 40s or 50s

Some folks here makes it look like they pray every match day for certain players to hv a bad outing on the pitch. If you haven’t noticed that I hv and can easily list names of those players witch hunted here

I say things the way I see them without sugar coating it

No be here we dey few days ago wey one guy carry Bassey matter for head just because Fulham conceded 3 Abi 4 goals? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I understand bro but sometimes you don't really have to go that low with people.

andrewbaba44:
How do you know he is in his 40s ? Age detector

How old are you self

He told us that.

charlesemeka85:
they will tell u that Ndah and Awaziem are better than him

Even that there re far better LCB in the NPFL that are better than him 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You really need to take a good look at yourself bro. You are already in your 40s but most times your takes are too childish and embarrassing. Come on, you can do better.

Some of you guys let emotions envelope your takes. Where is that guy that said Bassey was better off as LB just because he and his partner leaked in 3 in their last match?


Does that still hold water?

Good to have Patrick Schick back scoring for Leverkusen. That is more than enough cover for Boniface, and it will increase his chances of being a strong contender for the next APOTY.

With Schick helping to steady the ship and giving BO4 a chance to win the Bundesliga, and a good AfCon outing for Boniface, then...


Long way to go sha.

Glad that Maduka Okoye chose to stay away from the AfCon squad in order to focus and get his career back on track through his club side.

Another person that I would like if he takes such decision is Ghana's Fatawu Isahaku who is in a good form for Leicester.
