Such is life

Do you remember hakan sukur of turkey ,2002 Korea japan World Cup star ?

He is an Uber rider in America ,he can’t even step his feet into his country turkey

He is on exile in san Francisco ,his houses business has been seized by the Turkish government ,I think he went into politics and had an issue

Omo. Uber? This Life eh

Na him even carry Kanu?

Subzero47:
No country training can teach wingers to cross the ball they didn't learn at their clubs

I don't agree with this. Its rare but there are such stories around. Its football Afterall.

The designer of this jersey needs jail term.


And for accepting this agbada for cadet level again, the officials in charge that year need query.

andrewbaba44:
I am not among them ooo

Onuachu will surely make the World Cup squad if we qualify

He is not even a regular yet they will slander him with the few minutes he gets from the bench as if he used to play consecutive games ,they forget victor was given all the chances in this world to start games and also ighalo ,yet they want magic from onuachu from the few minutes he usually get as if dem don give the guy ball e throway am or the guy Dey miss sitters

Onuachu is my second most rated super eagles striker only behind osimhen

I really want him to play a part in this Ghana tie. We don't really need crack down anything. Besides he's good in the box. If we gave Sadiq his chance, He needs be given much more.


Better times ahead sha.

Ahmed Musa donates 2m to Former Super Eagles Legend, Kingsley Obiekwu, who was seen Loading buses in public car park. Omo!

jihday:
MAU is our national stadium

Sure. The upgrade is commendable too.

mostob:
They can't just overhaul everywhere like that na...where are they going to get another midfielders

I think some sorta deal exist btw him and Mr LaRams about funding for UCL football spot

andrewbaba44:
100 games ,62 goals 8 assists .

This guys is doing something that will make most of y'all that don't want him in the NT for whatever reason to be a yardstick before the end of this decade we are in.


This guy has barely had the tactic played to his strength in the NT and yet we keep making it lool like he doesn't deserve that chance. Is it form, he has it.


I dunno sha. You can make the Osimhen talk but there's absolutely nothing wrong with his taking the spot for a few times in the NT.


For this reason, it would be more sad personally if he doesn't make the WC squad of we qualify. But This is Nigeria!!!


For me, I'm satisfied fully with his form and contribution recently. He deserves a return for the next 90mins games the GWG will be getting prior to Qatar.

komekn:
Once again l reiterate, you don't come to the SE to learn it's too short a time sequence. If you dont know how to cross the ball instinctively with precision in your club and league week in week out. Then you are not going to learn that in the SE.

You pick players because of what they can do here and now,proven and tested by their consistent top level performances in club and league.

Several players have often come out to speak of learning things in the NT setup that they never learnt at their club. So it is very much possible. The only argument against this is Time factor. But that doesn't mean it doesn't happen or can't work.

Subzero47:
Wetin dem no train them for club you can't give what you don't have, I found that a way to curb selfishness in wingers is to play them in their natural side i.e (a right footed player plays on the right side of the pitch) that way they have no option than to cross

The Argentines and columbians have always done trainings that weren't really done at their clubs. Same for the Egyptians. No be today that one dey. Club football is not the echelon of complete football now. Haba.


Its a vice versa thing as well.

yinkeys:
On current form, Nigeria will win against Ghana.
However it’s a pride match, so I won’t be surprised if a Ghanaian or two will prefer to get red cards than to let Nigeria easily get away with the win.
We might see some rough & determined footballers particularly in the 1st leg.
Could go into penalties in the second leg if our forwards don’t seal the win at Accra.

I don’t support the use of Abuja stadium
They’ve not played there for ages.
Thought they would have opted for Uyo stadium.
Not so familiar pitch, hope it doesn’t turn into 2 away games for us

Seems UYo no sweet to Pinnick again. MAu it is

mostob:
Xhaka,Elneny,Guen, Torreira in that other...

Guen can stay if i were coach. But that word overhaul means even Partey may not be spared if Arteta sees a better option. They should sha qualify for UCL. Its very feasible than ever before now, considering our next 4 fixtures.



This one that GM is on 9 training


I'd love he starts in the lineup as winger, then when Laca gets subbed off,he moves centre and sub does their own mixup.

andrewbaba44:
Chibuike adamu just came in for Salzburg ,immediately I checked he was born in Kano but has already been capped by the Austrian national team

I hope we get to see Samson Tijani play today

He can't believe he opened it up..

Pinnick no get spokesman ni? He may be the most open fa boss on SM.

Subzero47:
Wow, we now HAVE to beat Ghana

Laughable. But with where the black stars are now, this kind of flex is expected from such a player. Cho dey feel himself. If they quality, he should not even be called.


But of course we will instead

andrewbaba44:
Semi ajayi is taller than ekong

i thought he was 6 2

Danielnino00:
Dennis is listed as 5'9 and Ekong as 6'3 Sha...

Kon add Leon join.

Ekong should be the tallest since Etuhu i think.

andrewbaba44:
Lol and some people thinks Dennis won’t play for naija again because of that watford matter

Lol. No mind beer joint Pundits. Person wey drop hint for tweet after we qualify for R16 at Afcon. He knows he will be in the WC squad.

Rafael Leao link is strong alongside news of Midfield overhaul after season end as Fabrizio don talk. That UCL spot better be sealed before week 34, or else....



Also on GM...

NDLEA and npf dey play wwe.

E ho sweet to see nff version.

BascoVanVeli:
Victory Macaulay among the best 5 in the group

The jersey number has finally stuck in memory. VM25.

Osimhen don cause 4 Pks this season. Nobody in top europe club football has done that this season. And its definitely not going to be his last. He can statpad like Jorginho/Bruno did that year

Joebie:
He played LW in that Liverpool game I think judging from the minutes I watched

I didn't see that game. Hope he wasn't average?

Joezinho:
Iwobi was monstrous today. I couldn't believe this is the same Iwobi I watched with my own eyes playing the creative role to perfection..

We have good players honestly. Zaidu played yesterday against Sporting Lisbon in the Portuguese classico and he was awesome. He hit the post with a thunderous volley..

Chukwueze lined up RM defenders like he's selling ice cream but couldn't break down Tunisia... Football is a funny game.

If Lampard finishes with him ehn, im afraid he may get his middle role by June. Cos what i saw today no be 'he's riding on uncle's fame'

Plus lamps is adding some detailed aspect to his decision making. Iwobi will be on fire in 4months time.


Meanwhile, Chuks dey drag Marcelo like beans.

Joezinho:
He plays as a DLP in some games in rangers and even in nigeria. So i am wondering why they said he can't play as a DLP.

Just fear nothing more.

BascoVanVeli:
Not sure if this has been posted here but our Basketball ladies had a big big win over France yesterday. Came all the way from 20 points down.

wow. See that LeBron James longshot there men. That our 25/23, is superb.


Victoria Macauley!!

andrewbaba44:
But one of olayinka and sadiq umar are too good to be dropped to accommodate lookman ?

I would have called lookman if not for quota system

If we qualify, both may be dropped. That list go cause war.

mostob:
ungingered Partey, when shooting, na innocent fans on the stands go dey suffer...imagine how a gingered Partey will be like...na outside the stadium Dem go dey pick the balls.

Our bredas can do it, especially if they see who's in goal that day.

andrewbaba44:
Since they cannot drop anyone for lookman according to you ,who are they dropping to accommodate Dennis

Me i don Taya for Nigerians sha.


We sometimes forget that we are using the best we got at hand for XI, and if a better comes, the better will/should start in no time.


That's how they said Saka will chop bench for Euros. Now Lookman go chop bench? Yet Dennis must start?


Right now in SE, its only Ndidi And Ekong that have starters shirts anyday, anytime. The rest can be benched. Lol


For his pinpoint crossing ability, I'll love to see a Lookman start ahead of a not fully fit Chuks. Only Aina i remember, was crossing from the RW at Afcon mostly.


Lookman will add a lot to that RW. Easily reminds of VicMo. But if they want to start him at left, all well and good.

Joezinho:
But he plays as a deep lying playmaker in some games right?

He should be allowed to play the role he plays at Rangers. He should be freed up to shoot and score imo. This sacrifice that barely makes the middle have their own chance at goal is stale o.

Joebie:
I don’t know about you but I’m super glad about this

if he go wc and perform, Leicester go cash out big time. But he plays RW majorly now abi dey don switch him ni?
