honestly we do not have world class players so we can manage with the ones we have. but i want an MRI scan on every player because we have players who are actually over 40yrs old. they drop their ages by as much as 12 yrs or more. after MRI anyone more than 30 shoulld be dumped in some garbage bin.

[quote author=Okija_juju link=topic=484126.msg6442324#msg6442324 date=1279963331]After he fails them and Nigeria is on the brink of not qualifying for African cup of Nations we will start yelling for his sack and the employment of Coach John Obuh.
I love my country men, so predictable.

IMO Siasia never chop belle full to lead senior eagles o!! I'm just saying my bit, crucify me if you will. See our guy Keshi wey we hail for taking Togo to their first world cup ever wetin happen?? See him amd Mali for the last nations cup even with players like freddie Kanoute and Keita. I still say give us a white boy. Senior team is for men not boys.[/quote]now thats what iam talking about!

asofejo:
name your BETTER COACHES, hope you are not one of the people advocating for mediocre foreign coaches that are not even better than AMODU,LADAN BOSSO or CHRISTAIN CHUKWU, siasia is the best option for now because we cant get a guss hiddink,sir alex,mourinho to coach nigeria, what u mean by RIPE is pep guadiorla RIPE before he won treble with a big club like barcelona

look at it objectively. what has siasia acheived? is it the siver medals with OVER AGED players?

the man could not even win u-20 and u-23, even with over aged players. age tournaments are different ball games from senior grades. the man shall meet his water loo. soon we all would be calling for his sack. watch and see.

AND FINALLY, MAY THE NAME OF MESSI BE WIPPED OFF EVERY LIP. THANX. LETS TALK ABOUT ANOTHER SOCCER STAR. BUT WHO?

IAM so sick of this xavi and iniesta talk on messi.PLS FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO SAY. messi is NOT the great player he is 4 the goals he scores. he is a great player becos of his dribbling skills. he is a talented dribbler. iam sure i will woke up in the morning to read on nairaland that his dribbling ability is bacause of iniesta and xavi.

the rooney fans and the ronaldo fans here on nairaland are all so desperate to drag the name messi along with the former cus messi was top 10 best while the duo were top 10 flops! ROFLMAO.

iam just chilling in my living room and wondering why OVER THE PAST 2 OR 3 YEARS, THERE COULDNT BE A FOOTBALL ARGUMENT WITHOUT THE MENTION OF THE NAME
LIONEL MESSI.

LETS BE REASONABLE AND USE OUR HEADS HERE AND NOT BE DOGMATIC. WHICH IS MORE DIFFICULT AND GLORIOUS? PERFORMING IN A CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL OR THE WORLD CUP FINAL? IN 4 YEARS A TOP PLAYER PLAYERS ABOUT 6 WORLD CUP GAMES AND ABOUT 240 CLUB GAMES, IN FOUR YEARS! ARE WE GONNA RATE A PLAYERS GREATNESS ONLY BY 6 GAMES OUT OF 246 GAMES? THIS IS LOGIC.

@ddippset
Even though Lionel Messi was not on the list or did not score a goal, you have to admit the players that won those FIFA awards deserved it.
Lionel Messi just had a bad tournament. At least he scored a goal in 2006 FIFA World Cup.

IF U JUDGE BY GOALS THEN AIYEGBENI WAS BETTER THAN MESSI RIGHT? PLS WATCH ARG MATCHES AGAIN. HE COULD NOT SCORED BECOS HE PLAYED DEEP. HE HAD 2 RELY ON LONG RANGE SHOTS.

there was a time when gourdiola in his first season used 2 try 2 rest messi in softer games. it turned out that barca would struggle. then he would bring in messi like 20 mins 2 go and they would win the game. this was 2008. messi, xavi and iniesta are all over 95% grade stars. most pple do not watch d la liga yet they rush to discuss messi. messi is a great player not 4 his abundant goals but 4 his dribbling skills. do inesta and xavi help him dribble? ask your self.

[quote author=mama-gee link=topic=477660.msg6374172#msg6374172 date=1278960516][color=deeppink]^^No one can match messi?

This is a big joke, Messi of all people knows he can't play without Xavi and Iniesta. . .he sucks point blank.

At least ronaldo makes his team great while messi' teammates make him great.

He can be nominated for 3500 awards, the fact still lies that muller can beat him anyday.[/color][/quote]ROMANCE WOMAN, ROMANCE! GO 2 THE ROMANCE SECTION OR 2 D KITCHEN.

rokiatu:
haha let he sit down, Golden boot my butt. When players like Asamoah Gyan, Luís Fabiano, Christiano Ronaldo
Messi Wayne Rooney Drogba, and Robin van Persie are no where to be found in this list, then he dey dream
big, nothing do am, let he ride on.

dont you dare mention ronaldo and rooney along with MESSI or else the gods would strike u dead. are u trying 2 console urself?  messi was voted by journalists as one of the best ten. dont you ever 4get that. he inspired argentina to the Q FINALS and was their best player, so pls think with your head and wipe ur lip gloss.

OvieE:
Where are those kissing MESSI backside BEFORE the tournament. He went home with face buried and shame. Is time he changes his nationality to Spain.

if messi buried his head in shame then rooney ronaldo kaka torress buried their dicks in shame. messi was argentinas best player and he was rated top 10 best in the world cup. stop hating, stop hating. ronney and ronaldo among top flops.

[quote author=mama-gee link=topic=477660.msg6373379#msg6373379 date=1278952252][color=deeppink]Congrats to them all, at least I know for a fact that they deserve it not messi!

Who even added him as a nominee?. . .I suspect alcoholism might have played a role in the decision making. [/color][/quote]hey mama geee, messi freak, messi was top 10 best. your husbands rooney and ronaldo among top 3 flops. so get off his ,

[quote author=mama-gee link=topic=473849.msg6359827#msg6359827 date=1278712359][color=deeppink]Nah!

I think he's a good player but to say he's legendary is a big joke.

Messi can't perform well without Xavi and Iniesta, have you ever wondered why he doesn't want to leave Barca?

Cause he wouldn't be able to show his real colours and wants to continue to live off the talents of Xavi and iniesta.

Messi is way overrated and overhyped. . .[/color][/quote]grand ma geee, i think you have a crush on messi, maybe you get wet when ever you hear his name. all the hatred is just a side attraction. sorry FIFA DID NOMINATE HIM!

whats this bullshit talk about muller? when was he born? do u know xavi and iniesta? lest i 4get, that was barca in action without messi ( 7 barcas in the line up). the only difference is that with messi it would have been 3-o. iam loving this. that was a revenge 4 messi from his home boys. if he was in this team he wouldnt have 2 play the play maker's role(like maradona made him do) he would have been on the left side expecting passes from the twins iniesta and xavi for him to dazzle 3 or more defenders b4 scoring. spain 4 life,barca 4 life.

[quote author=mama-gee link=topic=472863.msg6347006#msg6347006 date=1278535279][color=deeppink]You're so freaking funny.

Don't even talk of Maradona's replica. . .he's nothing like Diego Maradona, the football legend we all know.

All those stunts by the media are all overexaggeration.

For the record Messi is 23 and can messi take breath-taking freekicks like ronaldo?

Puh-lease call me when messi learns to score a goal from 34 yards away from the goal post or when he learns to deliver a good shot without giving it to the goalkeeper.

By the way, Messi walked with only the best player of the year awards in 2009 while ronaldo won the Goal of the season awards coupled with other ones.

And what's all these noise about him being best player just because he won the award in 2009?

He might be the best player for now but the title will change hands by next year.

Just like when ronaldo won the 2008 Best player awards, it always changes hands.

Ronaldo is known as a player who carries his team to victory and makes his team good while messi is known to be a failure without Xavi and Iniesta in Barcelona and that's exactly what history would remember them for. [/color][/quote]MESSI SCORES MORE INDIVIDUAL GOALS THAN RONALDO MADAM. DONT EVEN MENTION RONALDODO.

Dr Kitaun:
Can this thread be locked ? The arguments are becoming more puerile and moronic.

Messi is just Messi, not any greater than any WPOTY that we've seen. When he does the impossible we will all be forced to acknowledge him, simples!

5 games 0 goals . . . .WPOTY ?

IF A PLAYER MUST SCORE IN ORDER 4 YOU TO SAY THAT HE PLAYED VERY WELL THEN AIYEGBENI, UCHE, JUAN AND CO. MUST BE BETTER THAN KAKA, XAVI, MESSI, FABREGAS, AND LAHM ETC BECOS THEY SCORED BUT THE LATTER DID NOT. MESSI AND KAKA ARE THE ONLY SUPER STARS WHO MADE GOALS 4 THEIR TEAM MATES IN THIS WORLD CUP.

medjai:
Ronaldo is known to be a player that doesnt show up at the biggest stage and since when did long range freekicks become the yardstick for measuring great players. If it were by freekicks then Juninho, Rivaldo and even Beckham will be adjudged the best players. Messi is the best, period!

GOD BLESS YOU. MESSI DOES NOT NEED TO SCORE FROM A LONG RANGE WHEN HE CAN EASILY WRIGGLE HIS WAY TRU A COUPLE OF DEFENDERS. PLUS MESSI IS A DRIBBLER. HE DOES NOT NEED XAVI AND INIESTA TO DRIBBLE. DOES HE?

damn! she gat great boobs.

MESSI MAY NOT BE THE BEST PLAYER EVER BUT HE IS THE BEST PLAYER OF HIS GENERATION. WHY?
1. HE HAS PRODUCED AN EXACT REPLICA OF MARADONA'S GOAL(A GOAL ADJUDGED TO BE THE BEST GOAL EVER SCORED IN HISTORY)
2.HE HAS RECORDED THE BIGGEST MARGIN EVER IN HISTORY IN HIS VICTORY OVER RONALDO IN FIFA AWRDS 2009.
3DESPITE NOT BEING A TOP STRIKER HE HAS SCORED 47 SEASONAL GOALS(2ND IN LA LIGA HISTORY).
4.HE HAS NOT WON THE WORLD CUP BUT HE IS ONLY 22, BUT HE WILL( BUT HE ALMOST SINGLE HANDEDLY WON THE U-20)
5. 4 HATTRICKS IN ONE SEASON!
6.TOP UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SCORER TWO YEARS CONSECUTIVE.

This is like an insult comparing him to a phenomenal like Maradona.

I always knew he was overhyped for no reason.[/color][/quote]mama geee i thought you ve been asked severally to comment only on romance issues!

mama geee. i thought uve been asked severally to comment ONLY on romance!

guys i just thot of smthg. aiyegbeni is better than fabregas, xavi, podolsky, schwasteinger, lahm, toress, ribery. since he scored a goal but they did not score.! anyone who saw argentina's games knows messi played as a mid fielder and thats the only reason he didnt score.

so what if messi did not score? he was argentina's best player. he was the reason they even made guarter finals. and maradona basically played him as a midfielder. we should all be grateful to him as nigerians cus he single handedly made our son enyeama man of the match. messi d best.

just get your money if u havent son. bad guy, gud guy ,they dont give a hoot about it. just your paper son!

common yall. i think messi has been the second best player in this world cup, after david villa. messi plays behind 2 world class strikers, tevez and higuain. and u haters still diss him 4 not scoring? he was directly involved in 6 of argentina's 10 goals. he takes free kicks, corner kicks and is supposed to score? honestly if u do not give messi his props in this world cup u must be imbecilic. prior 2 this world cup it was messi vs ronaldo vs rooney. funny how the rooney and ronaldo apostles have quickly wiped off their lip gloss. i dont care if u bring up d names of ozil, fabiano, villa. but messi has proven 2 be bettaer than rooney and ronaldo at international levels. PS- pleeeaaassseeee dont 4get his olympic gold and his U20 gold 2. iam out.d

fellow nigerians! we are a good and passionate footballing nation no doubt, but let us all humbly accept the fact that we are not the best footballing nation on the earth's surface. we are not the best thing that has happened to football. some nations (a few)are more talented and organized than us and would always defeat us 4 times out of 5. we may beat them from time to time( in form of upset). an example is argentina. others are brazil 4 sure, spain, italy, germany and holland. so take it easy guys.
