I sincerely apologize to the thread for the slow progress made so far.
Getting the nomination committee ready is proving more difficult than I anticipated, but it's expected. Many of us have our lives outside of this thread, so not everyone can dedicate their time to the process.


Charlesemeka85 and Thegoodjoe remain the only committed members so far. Kog45, Bascovanveli, Komekn and Majoribanks have declined participation, while Thesupernerd is yet to reply.

Chriskels, Joebie and Andsungorilla, I hereby extend an invitation to you to join the nomination committee. I'd appreciate if I get a feedback sooner. Thank you

Thanks guys for picking me, but I won't be quite disposed to discharge this duty this time as I did the last time I was involved. I have got so many engagements at the moment, so I would want to sit this one out for someone else so that I don't draw the team backwards. Thanks for your understanding.

Sadiq Umar? Really?

God punish quota system sha, Northerners aren't built for football, let them stick to the useless Nigerian politics they are known for

Oga rest. If you are good, you deserve a call up. Doesn’t matter where you were born.

quickberry:
Where is he from?

Ideato in Imo State.

They are actually Iroka Emmanuel and Iroka Celestine. Babayaro is the name of their football godfather. That said, they are Kaduna bred.

Ndidi to Tottenham dun dey gather momentum oo.

If this move happens, where is he gonna play with Bissouma and the little Senegalese boy doing excellent jobs already?

When you want to quote a write up with intention to defending your own write up that was quoted, ensure you have the intelligence to understand your own write up.

It is foolishness and un-intelligent to argue about another race indigenous language.

LoL can you point out where I based my claim of him being intelligent on his good use of English?

If you can do this, I will buy you dinner of 5K.

codemaniacs:
Fluency in English is not a sign that a person is super bright.. that's colonial mentality.

His name has both Jerome and Adams in it that means he will align towards English and since english is an official language in Nigeria then he has to learn it.

When next you wanna quote a write up, try to read with compression firstly.


The post you quoted came in paragraphs. First paragraph talked about his intelligence while the second paragraph talked about his good use of English.


Where did you read that his good use of English is why I consider him intelligent? Have you even listened to this boy talk?

It can only happen in Nigeria. Oyibo man can never be this silly.

bro some of this owngoal news na fake

Person just Dey try post am here to mk here busy and to hv something to discuss about

Rohr was hell bent on getting euro born players to switch to us so I see no reason he will miss such meeting that would hv given him the edge to snatch such young talent from the French

The only one I know he goofed big time was Eze. He had all the opportunity and advantage to cap the lad before eze rose to prominence but I believe what prompted the delay from the German is that the player was playing league 1 football then

This is the very reason why I advise that our national team handlers shouldn’t wait for this kids to play and perform in bigger leagues/clubs before been capped. Few minutes to any of the end world/afcon qualifiers would hv gotten us Eze

Eze was outperforming Etebo in the championship yet the Tinubu of a coach kept on inviting Etebo feigning ignorance of Eze, yet Eze was the only player the team’s midfield needed to be complete. Werey was inviting Ogu, Agu, Etebo, Ndidi and Agbo all DMs, then Iwobi as a winger. That man is so clueless abeg

That werey called Rohr remains the worst coach the eagles ever had. Dude is the reason we missed out on Eze. We also nearly threw away a World Cup qualification when he refused to play Ebuehi in an inconsequential match instead he stock with an ineligible Shehu.

charlesemeka85:
they forgot so soon that when Okoye was playing in Holland he was rated as one of the top goal keepers in the league

I believe his problem in the national team is lost of confidence and the move to watford happened within the same time frame which also affected him in the English club

he needs a good goal keeper coach and psychiatrist to help him build that aspect of his game

Uzoho for once have never impressed me. Even against man united most of the saves he made were straight shots though he made couple of spectacular saves too

After the united game he was awful in their next league game 🤣🤣🤣🤣

A good psychologist you meant? Well I just hope the boy comes good to help the team.

That double save gave me enormous joy considering the reflex. Dude looks really hungry. He is growing.

BascoVanVeli:
Onyene-Zizou for short

This sounds somehow to anyone who understands Igbo.

More like "who dey zuzu?"

charlesemeka85:
I have always said it that Okoye is better than Uzoho

At this stage it is no longer about who is better or who is not. We just want them to perform. That said, if you are saying this because of these saves against the world class strikers of Cagliari, what then would you say about what Uzoho faced against Manchester United?


I just hope Udinese gives Okoye a chance in the league proper and that he seizes the opportunity. It will be a big plus to have our goalkeeper starting in the serie A.

When CharlesEmeka came in here and started his copy and pastes from football sites, we taught him how to edit, filter and organise his works and he sat up asap just as we have done this Village-whatever yet he keeps doing his thing neglecting those who have put in their time to teach him how it is done.

=Mujtahida
I don tire for Oga villagereporter oo



Baba wetin I do ooooo

This rubbish you are doing is irritating. Best to jump every post from this moniker. No dey stress anybody mentally here.

Sir kickoff had magazine then, it was complete sport that doesn't have,

Every Monday and Thursday, I dey hustle #30,#50 to buy complete sport, na steadily I set.y buy then, heck even on Sunday's, instead of bible, you go see me with completesport inside church 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

My church bro don seize that sport paper tire, I still collect am go house

You are right. Kickoff and SportingLife

charlesemeka85:
I remember him. Once played for VV Venlo in Holland then

I had high hopes in that guy as a CB after that 2009 U20 world cup

charlesemeka85:
😳 they had bro, make your findings

Kickoff and 442 but the latter was more expensive than kickoff

Oh alright

Hey guys! What happened to Alex Nkume?

charlesemeka85:
then my best was kickoff. There is no single day I don’t visit the site then with my cousin’s Symbian Nokia fone 🤣🤣🤣

Even if I manage save 300 Abi 400 naira then I Dey buy their magazine without thinking twice.

I don't think Kickoff ever had a magazine. It was CompleteSports that had magazine. Kickoff was owned by South Africans. Icon4s, Forgiveness and one other person in this thread was there then. I flexed that site tire with Nokia C300 and Symbian phone.

charlesemeka85:
I remember the site. Then I was just a visitor here 🤣🤣🤣

I wonder what happened to FutaaDotCom. I loved that site like mad and I guess it was ran by Kenyans. When KickoffDotCom messed up their Naija section, I had to take solace in Futaa.

jihday:
It seems Nathan Tella have been invited to the super eagles, David Doherty just congratulated him on his teamnigeriauk Instagram handle

I hope this is true because he might turn out to be a better addition than Lookman Ademola. Lookman has really been a huge disappointment, though I hope he comes good.

TheSuperNerd:
Omo... Peseiro weak me. Na my meme be dis for am ahead of Afcon. Be it good or bad.

But there was a report that JP saw the match live at the stadium. If he didn't have any prior interest in the player, why would he buy the match ticket or did he buy the match ticket and went to the stadium to see him after he scored?

Zellas:
I am watching him right now against Lukaku (Roma). I don't like comparing players or rating players based on the club they're playing for, but I think Ogbu should be a starter in SE.
Don't forget that Bassey and some of our players were born in Europe, but these guys made it from Africa against many odds.

We don't do emotions here. Do you want him to start because he is good or because he was bred in Nigeria?

do4luv14:
I don't think so, am yet to come across any Urhobo lady bearing it,

But that's the name of my junior Sister, And have seen another Isoko lady bearing it

Oh alright.

Bannedlargedx2:
There’s no way that he was a striker initially. The dude was probably a winger or attacking midfielder converted to a striker ala Thierry henry

He was an AM converted to a striker, that is why he should be a regular starter behind the main striker.

do4luv14:
I don't know sir, and It's Akpouvie, And that's the name of my Junior sister

I thought both Urhobo and Isoko bear Akpouvie.

Joebie you ought to know better, aren't you Urhobo abi you be Itshekiri?

Someone should please check on Forgiveness
