1. I have been following Nigeria youth football since 1993, and believe me when l tell you that these guys reflect their ages. For 2 weeks now, l have been with them and handling most of their logistics here in Niamey.
2. In 2013, when Amunike brought the u/17 here in Niamey for U/17 AFcon, l still handled their affaires. So, it is not the first time, these group of U/20 players are very young and can give us 10 years at the highest level.

@lelion keeps defending their age, can you objectively say that they look rightly under 20. I saw the picture of the goalkeeper he posted too and I had some reservations in my mind. Do you think these guys are not one of those looking for a way to Cyprus, Malta , Belarus etc.

It is in Ajegunle. It was built my Nathaniel Idowu.
The facility contains
Ten 5-aside pitches Eight 7-aside pitches and One 11-aside pitch

PDPGuy:
Cool stuff.. A private entity could also rebuild the National Stadium, Surulere, to either a standard Olympic stadium or a football-specific arena

lovewins:
The rumour isn't true. Godwin Enakhena confirmed it's privately owned and not a local government project

lovewins:
These are real pictures. It was apparently built by a private individual.

Is this proposed or actually in existence.

Because if it exists that's quite impressive

Werner has registered eight assists for Chelsea in the league this season (11 in all comps), with Kane (13) and Jamie Vardy (9) the only strikers to have contributed more in the top flight.

The German is crucial if Tuchel is looking to play on the counter attack, completing 10 total fast breaks for Chelsea - only Kane (13) has more in the top flight. Meanwhile, team-mates Mount and Kai Havertz (2) are some distance behind Werner, completing very few breaks this season in comparison.

The 25-year-old has engineered nine big chances in the league (13 in all competitions). The only attackers to better that record in the top flight are Kane (14), Son Heung-min (14), Salah (11) and Sadio Mane (11).

Werner has also become a potent weapon in winning penalties for Chelsea. The Blues have been handed a total of five spot kicks for infringements on the German in the league this season. No Premier League player has won more penalties, while Kane and Salah have been given just two apiece.

You need to stop watching football one-dimensionally. Coaches do not watch football this way.

I wasn’t brought to Manchester City to win Champions League, says Guardiola

Pep Guardiola believes Manchester City have already achieved their aims by being contenders in every competition, insisting he was not brought to the Etihad Stadium to win the UEFA Champions League.

Manchester City’s wait for European football’s top club prize will go on after they lost 6-5 on aggregate to Real Madrid on Wednesday following an incredible semi-final collapse.

But in a lengthy response to a question about his players’ chances of ever winning the competition ahead of Sunday’s Premier League game against Newcastle United, Guardiola had much to say.

He explained how the club view success differently from “the people” on the outside.

“I don’t know [if this team can win it],” he said. “It’s a question I cannot answer. Before Madrid, I did not know if we were able to win it.

“I don’t have an answer to all your questions. Football is incredibly unpredictable –— we saw it.

“This is my feeling, maybe I’m wrong: Abu Dhabi didn’t buy this club and invest in these incredible facilities, invest in players, like a lot of other clubs in the world, to be what we lived the last years.



“It’s not to win just the UEFA Champions League. They did it to be there in all competitions, in every season, compete, compete, compete until the end.

“We will try again next season. It will be difficult because the teams are good. I know the people want to be in that way, I accept it from day one, I have to handle it, but it’s not a problem for me.”

Guardiola insisted he “cannot live” for European glory alone –— and suggested Manchester City would be criticised even if they did win the UEFA Champions League.

Asked if the defeat gave him added hunger, he replied: “No, always I am starving.

“I know the people outside here demand Champions League, Champions League, Champions League, we know it, but I cannot live [just for that].

“The moment we win the Champions League, they’ll say look at the money we spent. If not, they spent all that money and didn’t win the Champions League. We are the only club in the world in the last 10, 15, 20 years who spent money.”

All those one is story. Mourinho could not use De Bruyne and could not see his quality. If De Bruyne was with Guardiola then, he will do wonders with him, just as he is doing with Foden.

JohnBullMySon:
It's unfortunate that Nigerians don't even know where to channel blame. If you hear the budget of the sports ministry you'll be shocked.

Check their role, number 1 there is grassroots sports development. However, the only thing they're good at is forcing useless coaches on Pinnick.

Karlovych:
The SE have a friendly match against Mexico in 3 weeks and the clowns at NFF are yet to appoint a coach, I don't know why some of the leaders in many sectors of the country are so useless.

Hello esteemed Nairalanders in the property and other sections:

Please I need your informed suggestions on the best areas within Lagos where I can currently get a half plot of land for 15 - 25million Naira. I am particularly looking at areas with the following features:

- Great Security (very low armed robbery incidence rates, low concentration of louts)
- Decent phcn power (at least 10 - 15hours daily)
- Nearness to social facilities like shopping malls, supermarkets, nice relaxation spots etc
- Non-swampy or prone to flooding

The areas I'm considering that fit the above requirements are Ogudu, Ogba, Isheri-Olowora axis, Ikate, Argungi or any area on the island not beyond Chevron.

Please advise whether and where I can get a half plot of land within the stated budget in these areas or any other area in Lagos that you know is also suitable. Note that Ibafo-Mowe (distance), OPIC estate (flooding), Ikorodu, Iyana-Ipaja/Egbeda/Alimosho (distance), Lagos Island (louts), Ajah (poor security and distance), Agege/Iju/Agbado/Abule-egba axis (poor roads and louts) are out of my consideration due to the various factors already highlighted.

Appreciate your responses!

Pls help a brother's 2022 housing ministry and move to the promised land

Someone said Osimhen is average compared to Tammy because Tammy has scored a hundred goals.

I said that Tammy's background played a big part in it.

Then you people started arguing. The argument is even baffling.

The articles and points were to show the edge of Tammy's background and how it helped. I kept on posting to show that there is no comparison.

People like you kept arguing. I am yet to understand what the argument is about.

TheGoodJoe:

There are people that are paid millions of naira monthly to fix this mess. There are those that get budget in billions to solve this problem.

I wonder when it became my problem to fix it when I do not get a cent from the investment that comes in from it.

I just put this out there to point people in the right direction. When I get the chance to effect change in some capacity, I will.

Finito.

TheGoodJoe:

I just posted an article I posted in 2016 for what I believe will help us start small-small. I do not think you can teach me that today.

I said they are ahead of us. Not that we can not grow. Okay?

TheGoodJoe:

Cut your coat is irrelevant to the debate. The gulf in class of Grassroot development is the reason why Tammy has a large fraction of goals more than Osimhen.

Where coat and cutting came in is baffling.
