Whoever compiled that Eguavoen profile and cv on frontpage dey just add fuel to fire.

I think its all about trust than pedigree or acumen.


Yobo keeps popping up asif he dey do something. Well naim sabi. At least Tha bull was offering something in his time.


The camp may be livelier than Rohr's though.

Philosopher1979:
What makes you to think Anayo iwuala is not good enough.
Because he does not play in Europe
Football does not allways work like that.
He might even turn out to be one of our best players and get us vital goals and assists.
Football is about opportunities and advertisment.
Some players are good but not well advertised.
He might be better than some European based players.
Westerhoof prefered Amunike when he was in Zamalek to Tijani Babangida.
Also, time changes things. He might move to Europe in a few years and do big things.
I have watched him play and he seems a very creative players.
Football is not straightforward like that.
In fact, that was Rohrs mistake. He thinks club form is everything and it does not allways work.
The issue of club form does not work for Moses Simon and paul Onuachu.
In fact, i think Anthony Nwakaeme can be a better player for Nigeria than Moses Simon and other wingers
in better leagues. Football is not as straight forward as this
Is not about me thinking he's not good. But about shockers on the final AfCON list.

I'm always up for one or two Sunday Mbas anyday.

Naim you write Epistle for me so??

Philosophy na!!? cool

Dey do use interim swear for Eguavoen. Always interim. Not even one new person.


If he's in charge for WCQ, im afraid, we aren't smelling Qatar, talkless Qa.

They treat this franchise like some NPFL team.

A pity they got 1billion instead of budgeted 6bn tho. Things just no dey ever dey organized.

At least real transfer market value pedri at 80 million euros

Same can’t be said of Joao Felix before his 120million ATM move ,dude was only a proven Portuguese league player
At least o. Its still same overvaluation to me. Felix just disappear. Even Vinicius worth pass am by farrrr.

I've always felt most of the golden boys will not really shine the way the media do it.


Scam plenty for all these valuation. Big scam.

One will think he's the next Rooney with the way they hyped Joao.

Pedri's 100-120 valuation is too much.

Pedri and Joao Felix valuation is Overhyped to me. Both above 100. I weak.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: The Red & White Army: 2025/2026 EPL Champions! by daveP(m): 4:13pm On Dec 12, 2021
I missed the Southampton match.

But extended highlights proves that defensive Midfield is still a long way from being above average. I think the setup isn't taking into cognizance that losing possession is a norm with these kind of players or in the centre. So no fall back, especially with Partey and Lokonga preferring to do Foot Escort for a solo opponents gliding right into our box with virtually no resistance whatsoever (generally speaking).

Arsenal are snatching points off lower teams and yet to from the big teams.

West Ham might just be an L awaiting. Tjose guys are too setup and coordinated positionally.

We might just need Saliba back.

Holding? Leaving?
Kola?
Elneny?
Cedric?

Auba sef. He should be freed after Afcon abeg.

I don taya.

The epl is a great league and has taken over Laliga as the best in the world

But most of their fan boys spill a lot of trash ,I still don’t understand how people will come up and say a certain player is not epl standard just because he is playing at the Belgium league ,so how do we a know a player that’s epl standard ?

And yes he deserves a starting shirt at the afcon
For record purposes,i hope everyone on this table of proven or unproven see this and not bring it up to downplay anyone.

Where is Simy anyway? Barely heard anything regarding him?

Dennis and Osimhen up front during afcon would simply be hightension for defenders. Their work rate would be fire.
Especially if they're like Emenike and Ideye that year.


Dennis and Osimhen would need train together so hard to be even better than that partnership up front.

Dennis might score nothin less than 15 epl goals

Watford will make alot of profit from him ,was purchased just for 3.5 million

What a signing
Analysts argued he won't fair well in EPL since he's never played in such a type of league. Analysts don kwayet everywhere. Now Analysts dey predict which teams he'd fit in after WC. grin


I sha know he'll reach 20+ G/A!
Like Ighalo for Watford that year, but better.


Funny enough, doesn't look like any team plan for him. Needle eye, He go still find net.

He deserves a starting shirt at AfCON!

Cos we got back to back WCs, Suddenly he has a Pass Mark. Im rereading that comment and cant imagine how or when that suddenly became the yardstick for Excellence and Performance.


How many time SA qualify for WC? Can we compare their league and ours that's still struggling for tv sponsors etc? Even their Women's League is well and efficiently run than the NPFL. Backstage, they are doing all to continue to make it marketable and attractive.

Sports Admin in SA isn't same like NGA. But cos they don't qualify for WC, then their adminstrative acumen is wack? Im using that yardstick.


The bar is really really low that Anybody that is president and qualifies NT for WC is now deserving applause.

There's nothing to fall for.

Generally speaking, our football entity is in bad hands for almost 20yrs. Im not going to pretend all of a sudden that Pinnick has been better or deserves top accolades. TheGoodJoe may prefer Maigari in comparism, but all of the pass Presidents are disasterclass. No Mincing words.


Pinnick? Obviously no different.

Pinnick is disaster yet we've not failed to qualify for World Cup since he assumes Office.

Are players used to talking that you'd expect any statement from them before you accept what you heard? The Mikel rescuing with private jet, did his teammates ever say a word till date?


We would be expecting decorum and protocol adherence for these crappy and distasteful bunch of football administrators asif their some special breed that need third guessing.

Amunike has always been speaking but they don't respond, nothing. You want one of these boys to suddenly soro and risk career waterloo? You should know the drill by now.

It all started in 2013 when the late Keshi eagles were highly unimpressive at the group stage vs zambia, burkina faso and was touted to be eliminated by the star studded ivorians. A certain victor Moses thought otherwise. He controlled the tempo of the game and delivered a world class performance

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ftg9THp3ek

Semi finals vs Mali… Moses continues his top notch performance…


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVYmC27ZSps

Moses was Nigeria MOM and player of the tournament in 2013…. Notable mention to emenike, mikel, Onazi, enyeama


2018 WCQ…. Nigeria is drawn against the number 1th ranked team in Africa (Algeria). 5 times ANC champion (Cameroun) and Former ANC winner (Zambia).. everyone gave up on qualifying for that World Cup until moses showed up again



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKAEJ6mRgKY
2 goals vs Algeria and place Nigeria hope alive


Moses once again annihilate a previous African champion to qualify us for another world cup

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXQJTwblOfk


Summary, when it comes to African football, victor Moses is a King and he will walk into SE 11…. Against international teams worldwide (there’s a doubt)

Ighalo return was simply for experience substitute and motivational purposes but Victor Moses own is NEEDED. He will walk into that 11
VicMo the King.

To me, he's the last Super Eagles player to enjoy his game back to back, like its all fun to him. Just see the scare at every inch he moves. When last did anyone see Mikel smile in GWG? VicMo did that. He also made Simon Moses look good. I may be tempted to conclude that he made Rohr look good too.


I can't believe some on here made it look like he wasn't the face of the 2013 triumph!

Running the show like it all was some Tv Gameshow. The flair is still in him. He is the King of that Decade in SE football.

Family › Re: Is It Compulsory For A Lady To Know How To Cook Before Marriage? by daveP(m): 1:35pm On Dec 07, 2021
Remman:
Don't be fooled... In America or other places it's not a must! But in Nigeria & Africa, it is a MUST if you really want to enjoy ur marriage with peace of mind. However, it is not a MUST if you want to share ur husband with someone else, or become a second wife, or be at risk of been poisoned by strangers, or starve ur husband out of ur life, or suffer abusive words or insults from ur husband people, etc...

From ur post, u're a teenager. Don't Worry, op, when you grow up you'll know that it's very necessary when your hungry child runs to u. I've seen husband's affections turned from wife to a maid that does all the cooking & it ended up in pregnancy & the wife seen packed out of her home over a maid who then becomes the madam of the house. Well, it happens.

So, for ur better future, go & learn how to cook. It's not a big deal, well, at the beginning, it will appear as such but later on it will be as easy & interesting as reading a novel. Finally, it's not necessary to cook sweet food. But just try and cook!
Do you know it is not a must because their ladies need not raise such trivial issue like many African girls are now doing,lazy to even learn.

In America,its not a must,but even as its not a must,the ladies still enjoy cooking. They learn early and by mid twenties, many already know their special ancestral recipes for different dishes. So its not even up for discussion cos even the guys know how to cook.


Some are saying, at Least for the sake of your children. Really? So the children are that loved, but the husband isnt, enough to make her do it?
