wow, if we get eliminated before the semis then I think Rhor should go, and we've not always had great coaches or players within that period I know Eguavoen was the coach in 2006, Chukwu in 2004 if Rhor can't equal or do better then he has no business coaching the eagles

You're damn right

komekn:
That would be very WISE

But what if we do.

It can't be helped. There are 3 good North African sides in this tournament. Should they all make it to the quarter finals and we also do, the probability we would meet becomes almost 50%.

komekn:
What are you talking about ❓

You have just described in a nutshell the Nigerian problem.

You want to use football to solve a problem that has plagued us even before the independence of Nigeria.

The problem is not football the problem is US.

Exactly.

TheSuperNerd:
The bolded is exactly why I mentioned Egypt. Remember the last time they hosted it, they won. That was 2006 I think and they weren't so spectacular too then. Just very disciplined tactically backed up by crazy home support.

The Mo Salah factor also adds to it.


Cameroun.... Believe me, whoever meets them in the round of 16 will not find it fun at all. Not even for an attosecond. The Defending Champs Cameroun can be a very frustrating side to play against. Ask Senegal who met them in 2017 in the Quarters and weere super favorites to win only to be frustrated and dragged into penalties and lost.

Then we must be prepared for penalties when we meet them (Cameroun). In fact, we must be prepared for the eventuality that smaller teams would want to drag the match till penalties

Earthquake3:
It is expected for the coach to give a report to the FA after every tournament

That's how you know a serious person, And to think Aigbogun has not done after almost a month of crashing out makes him more unworthy of any post in Nigerian football

You still don't get it. The problems with Nigerian football isn't post-tournament report.

It's the hydra-headed monster of Corruption, Nepotism, local coaches (some of them), unrealistic fans, bad league management committee, age-cheating and what have you.

Until you strike at the heart of this monster, just cutting of the head (sacking coaches) won't do us much good

TheSuperNerd:
Add Egypt too and believe or not, Cameroun.

Egypt...I don't really see anything spectacular about except for the Salah factor who is equal to 3 of our players plus they are also the host Nation. So, I expect some biased decisions from the referee.

Cameroun....Hmmm....Make we see.

Oasis007:
My Predicted Lineup

Chukwueze will operate as No. 8, specifically behind the Striker, while Iwobi will operate as No. 10.

What is Mikel doing in that position

He should just make peace with the bench Jeje.

elyte89:
Its a normal thing bro,to give a full report abt deir performance @ d world cup,even if dey won d competition.... Abi u think say na FOUR POST COMPETITION den go

I know its normal. Just saying that upon all the reports from the previous tourneys where we performed equally woeful, what has been done to prevent it in the future? We are always back to square one.

komekn:
Remember when Zambia took the AFCON where were the majority of thier players playing ❓ La Liga ❓ ❓

On paper Senegal is arguably the best selection of players. However, team cohesion is another thing.

Cote De Voire on paper have better players, by virtue of clubs and league.

But the big question is can they play together as a team effectively. In my opinion most of the West African teams don't play the best as a team but rely on individual brilliance to get competitive advantage.

For me the North African have the most organised teams add to that some world and top class players. Then put in the mix home advantage.

l really can not see a sub Saharan team winning this years AFCON.

I'm thinking Algeria and Morocco are the major threats to Nigeria

Bolowolowo:
Ndidi destroyed this nigga

Una don start.

Was he fully fit? How did Ndidi destroy a half-fit player?

He was played despite his injury which has now become aggravated.

So rest the "Ndidi destroyed Keita" talk for now

NFF gives Falcons coach, Aigbogun July 31 to submit world cup report


By Andrew Abah, Abuja on June 29, 2019
Super Falcons head coach Thomas
Dennerby and his Flying Eagles counterpart Paul Aigbogun have been directed by the Nigeria Football Federation to make their world cup reports available to the secretariat on or before end of July 2019 as the Technical Committee is set to meet the first week of August 2019.

According to Coach Bewarang, NFF head of Technical Department, the directive became necessary as the Technical Committee is to review the performance of the nation’s football teams that participated in both CAF and FIFA competitions this year.

Also, Sportinglife.ng learnt that Paul Aigbogun who led the country’s national U20 team to FIFA U20 World Cup in Poland and managed to reach the knockout stage after emerging as one of the best losers is yet to make his
report available to the glasshouse.
“The Federation needs to review the outing of its national teams especially the concluded competitions like super Falcons, Flying Eagles, Future Eagles and other age group teams including those preparing for competitions later in the year. Like you know the flying eagles and super falcons got to the knockout stage by luck and we need
to review the outing and recommend ways to do better in the future.” Said Bewarang.


The former Plateau Utd Football Club Boss revealed that the Female National U20 team (Falconets) just called to camp for the All Africa Games will be closely monitored as the target is to win a medal at the games.

Which report sef

We performed poorly in both tournaments. Wetin them want again? Unless they didn't watch the matches

TheSuperNerd:
Lol.... How you guys finally got to tag him as a 180° man is hilarious. Chaaaiii... Humility don suffer.... Don't worry bro Humility... Be like Aina and redeem your image! Avenge thy name like the Avengers!

You just dey add more petrol to the red-hot firewood.

Bad guy

lonelydora:
Why did Busola speak out when her close friend accused her of her waywardness and questioned the paternity of her children?

Timi should also be questioned to find out what is happening in his marriage. Women can do/say anything when they are in tight corner.

Online Mob Action without logical thinking is what I can never support.

Nigerians ranted when Stephanie Otobo and Dorcas Fapson accused the innocent men of rape. Kemi also accused a man of God, and they later came out to say it was false.

I am not exonerating the pastor because there have been some allegations too. But let's wait to hear his own side of the story.

Let the justice have it's way.

Why protest to his church when you just heard one side of the story?

NIGERIANS THINK, FORGET SOCIAL MEDIA. LET THE PARTIES SORT OUT THEMSELVES. THE CROWD IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT

Edited: For those quoting me. You all shouting about the donation on GoFundMe, all your donation won't even be equal to one Sunday service offering in only one branch. If he needs help, there are people from outside the country that will help him. See the pastor is from a wealthy home. His wife is also from a wealthy home. He also rolls with big pastors like Mensa Otabil, T.D Jakes, Bill Winston, etc.

Nigerians suffer from collective amnesia. They forget easily.

Because she is a lady and blew the whistle first, they assumed she is innocent and was forcefully broken.

Me, I have decided to wait until full investigations are concluded before I take sides. Besides, people that know the "victim" in question have come out to say that she and her husband aren't exactly saints.

There are always two sides to a story.

Earthquake3:
Nobody has seen enough of your contributions on football on this thread yet you put a name of those who don't know football based on their opinions?

The height of childishness

When I saw the person that made the list, It made the whole thing even more ridiculous than it is

Humility017:
I don't want my name removed...
let it remain there...
that's his opinion...... if he knows so much about football...he would have a been a pundit by now in one of the TV channels or probably be a coach...

every one reserves the right to air their opinion and if he feels that because I aired my opinion I should be in such a list his mind coined.. that's is opinion and it does not change me one bit.

I am currently sharing those links because my phone permits me presently......and we are in afcon season not to get validation from folks I don't know even in real life.

Oga humility, why are you taking it serious.

It's just a joke and this is a faceless forum. Don't care so much man

ChrisKels:
Since u want to feign ignorance of the list, here u have it;




Mind u, this list has not less than 20likes and 10shares

Oh this. Had forgotten about it

Who cares bro

My opinion remains mine

Earthquake3:
Percy Tau is good

I thought someone just said he is not good and is overrated just now

Well, I'm not even watching the match sha

ChrisKels:
I kpomified this post. In fact one hot okpa nsukka and a bottle of La Casera for u. I'm gonna ask semid4lyfe to delete ur name from that list, OK?

Which list is that?

Ci, this Tunisia Keeper get sense ehn.

The first ball whose flight he misjudged. My guy just pretend like say him get injury.

lol

Hipsofagoddess:
We are discussing the lady and the series of event that took place in her life not yours. People should learn to stop using their personal experience to judge that of others. Everyone has a unique experience. Look at the story brought before you, dissect it from all angles rather before trying to summarize it with your relatable story.

See ehn, I don't support rape at all.

In fact if investigations reveal Pastor to be guilty, he should be prosecuted.

But, we can't judge without knowing exactly what transpired and how it transpired.

I'm done with this matter. Take care and have a lovely night.

ChrisKels:
I am not a pessimist, neither am I delusional. I am only being smart and cautious. This isnt same as u who doesn't see any positives at all and u are always quick to rule out our chances.

That's where you get me wrong

What you just said about the quality of our opponents, I said after our match against Burundi and I feared for us against Guinea especially with the bonus imbroglio. I'm happy we stepped up against the Guineans even though I downplayed our chances initially.

However, I still think we may come good against Morocco and the likes

ChrisKels:
Do u know Nigeria hasn't played any top team in this tourney, neither did we win convincingly against any of the lowly rated teams we have played against? Do not over rate our achievement so far. Be mindful of ur choice of words, until we play a team as good as those teams u trynna mock

Now, If I called you a pessimist for this, I would be wrong but it is the sad reality. I'm eager to see what we can do against Egypt, Algeria and Morocco.

Hipsofagoddess:
And because of that incident, you'll draw your conclusion it was consensual? Mind you, she was 17.

Hahahaha. Young lad. Let me tell you a personal story. I hope others on this thread can learn from this. Mind you, this is the truth but it's your choice to believe me or not.

You see, when it comes to sexual immorality, age is but a number.

IamD18:
Members of Church of satan are more reasonable and sensible than brainwashed and gullible religious fanatics.

As in ehn...

I am sure if you it reflects in their lives. They are indeed of deep thought and aren't afraid to question "the natural order of religion"

Hipsofagoddess:
It's because if people like you who conclude rape is consensual that most rape victims do not speak out

One question young lad. Did you follow Neymar's rape saga?

If you did, then I'll like to refer you to that...okay

fergie001:
..strangle a child at the back of your Benz...

√This got me...this isn't porn,this is real-life....

Pastor B did this but I do not think in the context that Busola & Timi are driving this.....In your parents house and at that age,it is almost impossible to hide from a sensitive mother.

Something isn't adding up.....the sex took place,what we are trying to connect is whether it was consensual or not....

But at Busola's age, she couldn't consent to anything
It is RAPE........

She waited how many years?......wait how many again?

It was most likely consensual. And I advise they hire good lawyer. If investigations reveal it is consensual, it'll do more harm to Timi's career than to the Pastor's

Icon4s:
Now, this is the African Cup of Nations. We know who the perennial over achievers and under achievers.

You think people that rated Cameroon higher than Senegal to win it are mad?

In fact, Football is really full of surprises

FIFA women WC

USA currently leading France 1:0.

Seems the prediction of many here may come to pass

charlesemeka85:
the 4 teams that have impressed me so far in the on going afcon

algeria

nigeria

I'm not sold out on Egypt yet. Nice list though

As for Nigeria, we need to take our chances and play for ach other to increase our deadliness in front of goal

Congrats to him but his age sha.

I hope he can last long

Danielnino00:
Just a few hours back u said Mali were having a revolution with their football
.

Where is the revolution??


Francophone African countries are serial underachievers in football.. Always churning out good players with no end benefit for their national team...

They even over-hyped Moussa Marega

Truth is, the guy is average as best

bossto:
Is this the ivory coast una no want us to hear word about?...

Me, I no even rate them before. Na senegal I rate even above Nigeria but with their display yesterday, I'm not so sure again. Seems they don't play as a team
