In the here and now, Osimhen can't start for any team playing in league one. His weekly wage is not even up to 23k per week which is the the lowest when you consider the covariance, the decile and lower percentile of league one wage structure. Anyone who think otherwise is just being emotively bias and prejudicially bla bla Blu Blu.

Osimhen needs to even go outside and touch grass. Who does he think he is? Can he bench many players in Championship side that's better than the Scottish League and the Eredivisie? You guys should be Constructive and leave Emotive bias. I can bet you that he can't score 15 in the lower division. Stop hyping who never do anything in football....

Danielnino00:
Amuneke really fall my hand there..does he have a personal beef with Osimhen? Even if so, he shouldn't have said he'd pick Salah over Osimhen,considering the role he played in getting Osimhen to the limelight

They say baba reach red carpet and chose Osimhen again. 😂

5 Nominations

We go home with 4 wins

That's a super duper Caf Award for Nigeria


Oshoala barely had a minute for her off hand speech but she gave the most impactful speech of the night. Nobody go come epp us. Na we we.

Kgatlana wasn't happy though. But seeing the faces of Banda, Tigernut and Ellis light up as she spoke is enough for me.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

mostob:
Yea...he is likely going to be our star boy next year. A good showing at the AFCON and his personal achievements should be enough.

Let's see. He needs to start the strides from AFCON. He will be hard to ignore like his namesake that won tonight.

chuks404:
removing bounou made it easier for osimhen because that guy was just to magnificent for club and country. However, we wait and see.

That's true. I guess the Balon d'Or ranking too would be too foolish to ignore. Glad he finally won. He was just born the year the last Nigeria won it if I'm not mistaken.

mostob:
As it is now, be like another Victor will win the next edition.

All eyes on Boniface

Then he needs to do all to have a superb individual performance at this afcon as well. Yeah, in the midst of all the star forwards, but he may need to outshine then in the GWG in 2024. Afterall, club own is super secured to me.

Hope this non-participating in international competition for country be the chink in Osimhen quest like this?

I don't want to be taken by surprise abeg. If that's the case then i think we already know who takes major blame then. For me Bounou, not hakimi should be in top 3.

do4luv14:
And that Maduka flop Can flop anytop keeper too,

just 2 flop from Maduka, we don begin crucify Am

But no6 dey flop on constant basic, yet we still dey mention am for conversation,

It is well

That's my point. Media dey help too. But they were all over Maduka like say he let in 1000goal from 1000 shots.

Kog45:
Well said but I don’t see Sundowns leading with 5 points difference from second place team in NPFL and still having 4 outstanding matches.

The quality of football playing by less glamorous teams in NPFL is better than those less teams in SA league.

I gave it to SA league management for bringing real organization to the league.Yes the TV right alone makes the league attractive but the quality of football playing on the field,NPFL is better.

Provided MS aren't made to experience the basic bottlenecks an average npfl team faces year in year out(traveling mode, training and physio, contract issues, media and marketing, sales of jerseys-all that MS are excellent at but is alien to the NPFL terrain mostly) MS will ball in NPFL. Some NPFL teams will give their league some scare though.

comodo:
If Peseiro must call up 6GK. These ought to be in that list.
1) Osayi Kindom
2) Christian Nwoke
3) Bankole
4) Stanley Nwabili
5) Adeleye
6) Uzoho.
That way it will show to everyone who is the better stopper.

that number 6 dey vex me. I feel we too dey treat am with kid's glove. We didn't even treat Maduka flopping that way. We wey full mode angry.

Kog45:
Hmmm,me I no Dey move with any of our players performance again cuz they are not doing enough when it comes to national team.

😂😂😂😂😂 So true.

Spy360:
What we need is a LB that can play CM not a CM that can play LB.

Zinny is good but not the calibre we need to imvert.

Infact they should be starting him in WB so he can do his beloveth inverted duties. But LB? I've had enough!! He and White annoying me with their recovery/trackback. Whatever analysis anyone wants to use, coaches like Ebening see that as weakness to exploit. Makes me recall the shege Wan bissaka faced weeks ago. They overloaded his wing till gameplan scatter. And he's a natural RB o. Yet....

That noise opponent fans make when Raya is with the ball shows everyone already knows he has an error in him brewing. Lol.

Lookman better bring this fiery form to Afcon o. Abi we still wan blame Jpes?

Asides Yasu, I'm not impressed with the defensive workrate of our Fbs this season. It seems the rest are just there, lazy, good for attack only, while their actual primary duty, they are bang average at it.

BlueRayDick:
We no supposed dey depend on ref's decision. Na we no take our chances and we lost jare

Sincerely. We should own our own bs and clear it instead of waiting for external help. We need to work harder to ensure this doesn't repeat. It's annoying. All their game plans worked. None of ours worked. Just imagine. We also need to stop this leaving it late to decide 3points in the bag. Let's sweat it out early and do all that tension early abeg.




And finally, it is time to get an LB in January. A Natural LB. Abeg make Yasu dey that rb abeg.

Tactically, Arteta needs to work and stop this plan of CBs dragged to fb regions while those FBs are strolling back like lazy kings.

Roland17:
Their, intensity, pace and tempo dropped in the final quarter of the first because they were visibly tired. We have had more rest days leading up to this game.

I can't rely on that to make the biggest difference tonight. We need a plan to outsmart Emery. Dazall!!

mostob:
We need to take an advantage of their high line.

Dibu wasting time ain't new to me. I've seen this script before. Something tells me he is going to make a mistake that would lead to goal.

That's where someone different from Nelli and Jesus runs thru. It's up to kai and Odegaard.

Roland17:
I think we played well despite going down and can actually get back in the game early in the 2nd if we keep the tempo with finished with.

Villa will tire out and we should take advantage

Villa? Tired out?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ya not worried about the fact that we go taya out fes? Na villa well get 20games scoring 1st, winning 18 of those, wey go taya? Emery should be outsmarted, not falling into his trap. If Nelli and Saka do nothing different and mcginn problem is not solved, 2nd loss loading.

Better forget Martinez theatrics. He did it when Playing for us that year, remember?

What we should be doing is something out of the book. I've always said that when we are faced with top tactical managers, doing something out of the box is what will get us through. See that rubbish Odegaard chance. You dey look for goal and ya hitting the ball like say na UCL group stage match wey get 2nd leg. Smh. Guy budey this ball into top corner and stop the flair for camera my friend.

Kai and Rice were in two different situations where they could shoot but they both passed to Saka that had 3 shirts on him. Are they alright upstairs??

Emery tactics is simple but they are not reading it well. These defenders use the lines on the grass to determine offside trap and we still dey dull? This CB being dragged out nonsense is exactly what Unai wanted. It is playing right into his trap. He needs it. And it's working just fine. Arteta better change the tactics 2nd half. These guys should stop looking for flair goals with a keeper the least of them have trained over 2000hrs with and knows their moves well.

Nelli chip keeper and he dey run like those agric chicken wey fit tumble over. Smh. Annoying from him, Zinny, Kai. Not impressed. Besides, mcGinn is in that pocket unmarked and it is worrisome really.

mostob:
Yea..but she interfered with the play just before the ball crossed the line. Her mere run towards the ball was why the goal was ruled offside.

Yeah that run towards it. It crossed before she kicked sha. Na ojoro dey still do us. But that interfering.... looks tiny but it ruined chances of winning. If we got that goal we for don win cos our defense was okay that game.

AkinDS:
All I remember about Loveth is her decision to head Oshoala's goal bound shot (which was already going over the line for a goal) in the final of U20WWC, when she knew very well that she was offside. That pretty much cost us the match (which Germany won, even though they were outplayed by Nigeria).
I think her career took a nose dive after that.

Based on replay the ball actually crossed the line already o. But that act was annoying anyways.

BascoVanVeli:
Uchechi Sunday

Na Deltamani go sabi where she dey like this. It's good seeing Peace Efih in the team anyway.

mostob:
Only God knows what happened to Ayila. She was the midfield general of that U20 team while Ayinde was there to shield the backline. Such a good player then.

One can only imagine what she'd have turned out in senior team. We have many many talents. If only we could eat our cake and have it.

BascoVanVeli:
Tosin Demehin, Deborah Abiodun, Gift Monday and Rofiat Imuran were part of the Rivers Angels squad that got thrashed by asfar. It doesn't always have to be about winning local trophies, a good player is a good player.

They should make it a target at least. It boosts reputation for club and player. Abi is it just participation while those ones continue to rotate who will clinch the wcl? Wafcon is now a norm for falcons. To replicate that with the wcl is just my angle. Before Asfar and Sundown become the Madrid and Milan of the competition. Of course, we will always see talents. But trophies attests to the rep of a player. Anyways, till the house is in order.

Schemerkhiz:
Of the above named players Whyte isn't supposed to be there cause she was never a superb goalie just an average one Coach Edwin Okon was forcing on Nigeria throat..

Soo Adekwagh is married, based in Finland with three kids now. A girl and twin boys. She didn't really play her into the Superfalcon but was very good at the age grade teams.

Helen Ukaonu and Osas Igbinovia are married and both are also mothers.. Ukaonu gave birth to her first daughter in 2015 if I'm not mistaking.

Life!! Na still that Dike own pain me pass after Sunday. I guess it is what it is.

Some Promising Falconets names from years ago that we wished were balling on the grand stage by now



Soo Adewagh
Courtney Dike
Esther Sunday
Loveth Ayila
Ihezuo
Helen Ukaonu
Igbinovia
Whyte


Add yours.

zoboizee:
@Basco. You put some nigerian women league teams videos on Youtube. I watched it and was impressed by the quality of play by the girls. Teams such as Rivers Angels & Edo Queens with relatively good players but these girls were not given invites to play in the National Team. Why do we like relying on foreign born/based players so much.

Let them get back to continental glory first. The CafWCL is an exciting competition. Another route to shine. Become consistent like mamelodi and their asfar and they can be anything they want.

Deltamani:
Randy Waldrum left out in the shortlist of the Final 3 nominations for the CAF Coach of the year award (Women).😳

Nominees

Reynald Pedros 🇲🇦
Desiree Ellis 🇿🇦
Jerry Tshabalala 🇿🇦

what’s your take on this nomination ?

My take is let's just take this women's club continental seriously. We seem to just be wavering right now. We should be in any top 3 and force to reckon with each season.

His omission is funny anyway

enyeama ke

That was the nucleus of the 2010 WC team now. Yeah, Ejide is in the pic above, but the match vs Argentina, forgotten? 1-0?

zicky:
🇳🇬 Nigeria national team 2009

I no go lie, this team have one of the worst defensive coordination of our World Cup campaign in recent years.
So poor that a 2 vs 4 situation ended up as a goal against Enyeama at the WC. Howwwwww?
They played okay in 09 sha but rewatching the 2010 WC matches gave me headache for the defense.
