Joebie:
They still have Spain to beat. I'm for Spain

na true sef. If dem win now, British media no go let us hear word. The mvp from their team will be tagged 3ice the price when Nacho won it years back. Then they go wan force them to play topflight football, all cos their English. But Spain too go do their own sha.

tosyne2much:

That makes two of us then. WIP!! Any guest dancing 1corner will be booted out!

Icon79:
England players would never amount to anything in world football as long as the British pundits keep over rating them. Most of them are average at best but these pundits make them feel like world class. I was watching Spurs vs Liverpool last Saturday and I almost turned off my TV when I heard the match analyst telling the whole world that Harry Kane is already at Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo's levels!

Can you imagine? Harry Kane who can't dribble to save his life being compared with the GOAT like Leo Messi!! What an insult!!!

That my brother, is why the British players never do well once they step outside the EPL. I am praying and hoping that Harry Kane would go to Real Madrid so he would get exposed by La Liga.


O pari

Lwkm? when english born players start plying club careers outside uk, at least 4/10. i'l believe they are ready to prove the world wrong.

I tag the final "Spanish Armada final". I hope England retaliates.@U17 WC Final.

DonBobes:
Just saw e now

Finally.

Outside talk: England can now win u17 cup and leave us with our boys. sorry Brazil.

Mujtahida:
I'll look forward to the head to head analysis. Do it please. It would help put a lot of things in proper perspective regarding what we must do right to fly high in Russia next year.

Sure. Pirlo's tears at the ucl final is one reason i'l not forgive ororo. lol. LEGEND!! THE epilogue of an era!!
I've started it.

Nig vs Iran
(0-0)
Formation:4-3-3

Enyeama, Ambrose Oshaniwa(Cb), Oboabona, Omeruo(lb). Onazi, Azeez Mikel. Moses, Emenike, Musa.

Bench: Ejide, Uzoenyi, Gabriel, Eguekwe, Odunlami, Babatunde, Nwofor, Uchebo, Agbim, Ameobi(Moses), Yobo(Oboabona), Osaze(Azeez).

Verdict: We enter Brazil with poor setpieces stats(both defending and attacking). Analysts surprised by seeing inexperienced Azeez in the starting XI.
Mikel bossed the game and we got 70% possession, but no shot at goal, despite the Iranian goalie being inexperienced, not good. A.Musa gave his all in 1st half, tired in 2nd, but not removed. He troubled the Iranian def so bad, but no goals.

MOTM- Mikel(got tired 2nd half and made Azeez play his role which backfired.Hence he was removed for Osaze).

Personally, the fatigue level of every Russia-bound SE player must be noted, else... more headache!

Number 3 will be regretted if activated.

Mujtahida:
It was like we were under some form of mass hypnosis in our collective silence regarding the team selection to Brazil 2014. That team was wack.
Thank God for a forum like this where the spell of words and hype on particular players making the team will broken cos I know we surely would rigorously examine every player making the cut.

Perhaps the respect for the coach Keshi was part of that hypnosis(i rem the press kept uncovering nff's plot to employ Herve Renard and the man that tagged us super chickens@Claude le Roy. That time Pinnick vex me die.


We definite have a BETTER TEAM. If time permits, i'l do a head to head on 2014 XI vs 2017/18 XI to be.

One prayer though... that Onazi&Ndidi are injuryfree before that tourney(watched clips that showed our opponents at the last 3 wc scored from mistake/absence of dmf at position majorly; that just uncovered a def in shambles before the 1st whistle.

Another in camp issue is this scorpion sting called 'bonuses'. If i recall well, the class of 2014 threatened not to play france if they werent paid and Ameobi and Ejike were agitators alongside Musa. We must avoid EVERY issue that would be beyond Rohr's control and power. This happened to Lagerback!


Next... can we just understudy the way Brazil and Argentina do their bench selection? Stop taking peeps that arent good enough to bench a starter.... 2014 was the worst bench we ever had at a world cup imo!

safarigirl:
lol...it's funny now, but I was positively livid when I first saw that World Cup list

Like, I had to Google half the team to know who they were and let's not even consider the clubs these people played for. It was a poor team through and through.

I was even angry Sunday Mba didn't make the team, it was a proper case of monkey dey work, baboon come chop.

I'm glad this team is doing well so far, however, I must warn Ror that these coming months will be the most trying period of his coaching career because THEY will come. Agents, players, the press, hell, family members even...and everyone will be trying to secure a slot, he will be toasted heavily and he will need a strength of mind to overcome the pressure and swim with half of this current team.

Asin... watching the highlights again made me wonder if nigerians were under a spell(me inclusive). The press hyped Ameobi, but he tried. same for Ejike.

I'l be wary of the press and nff cabal.

TonyeBarcanista:
Hope you are fine bro?

10,000 Just dey crosscarpet ever 4years. nawa o.

Rokia2:
I was having a crapy day at work my boss got me fresh flowers......like two days in a row.

This is a nigga that barely smile so that was sweet of him.


This was not recent btw.

And he didn't want nothing in return before people start thinking.

lol. There was no need for the last line na.

My view on Brazil 2014

The squad was confusing: 3Gks, 7Dfs, just 5mid, and a whooping 8fwds.

Ejike, Azubuike, Odunlami, Oshaniwa, Babatunde, Nwofor, Uchebo, Agbim were all average additions to that team.

In fact the strike force had no connect. wack and tired leg def. di Maria had 6shots at Enyeama and i'll say that team had no understanding, bond except Emenike and Osaze. Ameobi tried.

Cant help but wonder how this was our 2014 squad.

The landlord should be in jail.

Cant believe only 3 midfielders to 2014. only 3. the most important 2 were always playing, while no.3 kept tasting bench as 1st timer. no.2 injured vs france, but no.3 was rejected by no.1.

counting the forwards we had... what was team selector thinking?
perhaps a conflict between best legs vs form!

Chai. person dey underrate wolves cos they are in championship? they have the same form as man city(no loss in 13games; w9. both top their tables), and are disciplined defensively.

From expression i read on Nacho's face, it seems he may like/dislike a manager on where he's played.

"Be like this one sure pass mmm"- their thoughts.

pitiable and i know everyone that comments must have thought these words... ENDTIME TINZ!!

An all african affair. the trio should do this more often. But hope papi Rohr is watching these rejuvenated Algerians?

libero808:
Chuba Akpom wastes a chance for Arsenal

This one is still daydreaming. wonder why he acts so comfortable with current status.

Mickael2:
Against Leeds, Carrabo cup *runs away before someone breaks my head with a bottle

And so? by Wenger standards, which Mou and Conte align with, this is the tourney for young guys like him. But it being Leeds doesn't mean they're walkovers. Drogba can testify.

Danycrusoe:
Oga mi Davep, I dey oo. I just they on a low key, silent mode I dey enjoy all d contributions from Icon4s, tbaba, kog45 safari terzurum forgiveness including u nd every other person on this thread. u are all just too much

na u sure pass. no tell me u dey wait for new npfl season b4 u get active again. join us na.

Oga Danycrusoe, long time no see...

Iwobi&Wilshere combo so far great but no goals yet. He must score

the number 6 though. youll be wondering whats up wif them. mostly assisting lecturers.

Hmm #suspimodeactivated.
what a response within 3mins. Nacho finally.

The way people dont fear or respect undertaker again is same with fashola. like is he the brf of years ago.
bubu(brf)=bubu stil

This one must have been watching to much of 'myko jackson'

tbaba1234:
A new coach might be more conservative and go back to the more experienced keepers.

Then he must be ready if things backfires. only a blindman would disregard the saves he makes that shouldave been goals.

Humility017:
I will check...but iwobi will be starting...

conte and mou finally join wenger's thought on the significance of this cup. i pray he scores.
