What attack are you talking about. Enlighten me.
This sound familiar

"What do you mean by if true? Are you the one who drafted the tactics?"

You always talk like you assisted Keshi in drafting his tactics and game-plan while questioning the integrity of another person's opinion

We are all fans but somethings are just too palpable

Such as Mediocrity, football carpentry, nepotism and favoritism

You are free to say what you want but you have no facts to back it up. Just made up things that has no basis.

Keshi was a man who went seven months without salary, with a dying wife but was always ready to turn out for the Super Eagles.

You can abuse him but you can not tarnish his legacy.
Did you not hear NFF was owing Rohr?

Did he dash Junior Lokosa the no 9 shirt because of that? Or Sokari the no 10 shirt?

He bleeped up bro

Can you make any point than saying you have no point. You that have a point, make it.

Keshi has done so much for the Super Eagles for you to open your mouth and say mediocrity.

He was a blessing to us and deserves at least understanding.

Can you counter a point I made? Than to write no point, mediocrity, as if that is making a point.

We already had Ramon Azeez. We could not go with Ajagun and Haruna when we had Onazi also who could play that role. We needed a big defensive/central Midfielder.

After that, Keshi drafted Hope Akpan.

You are free to write no point.
As usual you will argue till hell freezes over

Man City don win na, we no go hear word grin grin

Still no point bro

Keshi's greed was his greatest undoing. He would've sold his soul for egunje if need be

Yes, I said it

TheGoodJoe:
You people keep making this statement. Keshi wanted a big player who could play in the midfield, after going with another lightweight player in Ramon Azeez.

In the game against France, we were up against a highly physical French team. When it was time for a substitution to replace Onazi, Keshi called Ramon and I exclaimed, "No O! They will kill him on that pitch. Luckily, Mikel signalled to Keshi not to try it and then replaced Onazi with Gabriel.

So, Haruna and Ajagun would not have come in for the extra big man. It was due to strategy he brought in Ruben Gabriel to match the players at his disposal.
Oga, you have no point

Stop defending mediocrity. Big man or small man...Keshi was biased and corrupt

taiye was still the best leftback we can boast of then and was still playing regularly fpr dynamo kiev then in ukraine, a team who were competing in the uel team steady instead he settled for oshaniwa.


do you have an idea of how hard he tried forcing the likes of mikel,yobo,odewingie,martins and uche out of the team but couldn't succeed with mikel because he was calm and gentle guy who doesn't speak much and as well our best midfielder then playing in a top club

if not for the late nff's intervention before the world cup list was made public yobo and odewingie wouldn't have made the 2014 world cup team.

what about the case of ameobi who was washed off but made our world cup team?
Keshi was a very corrupt creature

I Still Get N5m Monthly Pension As England’s Ex-player –John Fashanu
The shy-looking Fashanu, who talked about how hard it was to convince players of Nigerian descent to dump their adopted countries to play for the Super Eagles without attractive welfare packages, backed his claim with the challenges some Nigerian football legends have been facing even after their sacrifices for the country.

BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORKNOV 23, 2019

John Fashanu


Nigerian-born former England international footballer, John Fashanu, has disclosed that he still gets a monthly pension of N5m as an ex-player for his adopted country.

The shy-looking Fashanu, who talked about how hard it was to convince players of Nigerian descent to dump their adopted countries to play for the Super Eagles without attractive welfare packages, backed his claim with the challenges some Nigerian football legends have been facing even after their sacrifices for the country.

Fashanu told Daily Trust, “Till today, I still get my benefits, my pensions. I get N5m monthly as pensions for being an ex-footballer in England and I am now in my 50s.

“Tammy Abraham knows why he hasn’t played for the Super Eagles and it’s because there is more financial benefits playing for England, there is more glory and less wahala. Why do we ask the boy to play for Nigeria and torture him?

"We need to step up. Tammy is a massive miss for Nigeria. Nobody went to London to talk to him and explain to him the benefits of playing for his motherland.

“And when you hear what happened to Kanu Nwankwo, Jay Jay Okocha, did anybody come out to defend him over his tax bills, did anybody come out to defend Kanu when he had issues with his hotel?”

likewise i myself because i will boast to be one of the realest here who spit things the way they are. i am no longer a kid who's submissions are based on what is trending in the media or our football circle. atleast i am old enough to acknowledge the truth when i see one and will never back out from saying it

i have been following the super eagles right from the mid nineties and from that period till date it will be ignorant to address me as a novice in matters related to nigerian football except our female teams which i don't follow much.

no matter the hate it takes nothing from us admitting the fact that rohr have done well since taking over the coaching responsibility of the super eagles and based on my personal rating i will give him 7/10

i knew little about him and wasn't really sold out on him when the nff brought him on board but after watching his first 2 games against tanzania at home and zambia away i knew the man has something to offer which grew my confidence in him and the team.

i will be a drastic decision if the nff decide to allow him leave
I agree with the part about Rohr's leaving causing a big gaphole in our team

Hard evidence of what, might l askhuh ❓

I watched the match.

When a team is poor they will spend the larger part of thier time defending. As a consequence the stats for clearances and blocks will go high. It's not a sign of quality if taken in context.

After the first half Dortmund woke up and peppered the goal of Paderborn. What the stats don't tell you is how many times Collins got beat. From my calculations on at at least 6/7 occasions he lost the ball. On a few it was actually taken off him. But the whole team was stuck in a desperate rear guard action in the second half. Last ditch clearances were being made all the time by the defenders. Consider this statistic 10 corners for Dortmund and just 2 for Padeborn that tells you were the ball was most of the match in the second half.

To be outstanding his team should have won the game. How do you not win after getting a 3nil lead at half time.

As a wing back you should be able to get up the field and put in some telling crosses. In the entire match l recalled him getting forward on three occasions. His so called assist is ambiguous because he passed the ball to his left winger Holtman who burned down the line beating the defender and nutmegging the goalkeeper. He essentially did everything himself.

So what's the hard evidence. In reality stats are indicative not conclusive. And someone here being outright delusional is misleading matters with falsehood. Even misrepresenting who who scored, why do people tell lies on a faceless forum to strengthen a non existent argument. I guess they are Superdelusuional.
All this just for five words? Oga Komekn, take it easy na.

TheSuperNerd:
Jamilu Collins finished as Paderborn's second highest rated player today according to Whoscored with a 7.9 rating and he is among the game's overall top 5 performers as his side played out a 3-3 draw away at Borussia Dortmund. Paderborn threw away a three nil lead as Dortmund's obviously high quality shone through....

Collins was also the game's no. 1 in tackles won (Won 7 tackles). He topped in recoveries stats and he created two chances for his team today.


This is the reason why "the Collins is absolute crap" club don't seem so keen on talking about his performance today after the final whistle. Lol
Now this is hard evidence
