grin yusuf salisu is back,Yobo now second assistant

So happy to hear this... now Egeavon and Aigbogun can crawl back to the hole they came from.
I am expecting a CHAN/WAFU cracker wit theTeamB and moreover all this while he was on exile he wasn't idle..
So unfortunate despite the corruption he is the best for the job at the moment that NFF can trust.
Salisu might be a good coach but he is a criminal. Nothing will change that.

Philosopher1979:
npfl players are too raw to pick up and work on.
Rohr is allready picking and working on raw talent.
Maduka Okoye is an example. He picked him up from division 4 in Germany.
Europe based players are easy to refine because they are allready in a condusive environment.
There are many players based in Europe that Rohr can easily turn to world class and
market them to a top 5 league.
Rohr also did well for Samuel Kalu and made sure he stated in Bordeaux.
Rohr should concentrate on players like kelechi Nwakali, Obinna Nwobodo, Muazum etc
and see how he can make something out of them. There is hope for such players.
Products of our youth teams still have a lot of hope.
Adewole oladoye in particular may be world class very soon as he had a sensational debut for Gent
Abbass idris who just broke into a team in portugal is there e.t.c
Again i repeat, home based players are too raw to refine.
To refine a home based player takes at least 2 years and those obscure leagues
are doing the job for us as they can move on from there to better leagues in Europe.
NPFL PLAYERS ARE SIMPLY NOT READY
THE PROBLEM IS THEY ARE LOST IN THE NOSTALGIA OF THE PAST
Anayo Iwuala is not George Finidi of Segun Odegbami and Sety Mayi is not Austin Okocha
that played for Rangers.

The npfl players of the present just cannot cut it easily.
Stop living in the past. Rather try and improve the league and things will
fall in place.
Stop looking at these players with the eye of the 90's our league has sunk very low.
STOP LIVING IN THE PAST
Most of them just want to use Super Eagles as a means to get home based players a move overseas. Nothing wrong with that but they should come out and be upfront with it instead of these lame talks of how home based players are getting ignored for "inferior" foreign based players.
People might say we're overreacting about the loss to Mexico but they should've remembered that when they keep attacking "foreign born" players unnecessarily when they have bad games.
SE is not a nurturing ground. It's the real deal. Only the best should be invited. People will need to swallow their pride and admit the standard of our league is just not good enough.

This is a very good development it will aid his improvement, he has been very stagnant at Villarreal

I will be very happy if this is true
Perhaps it would reinvigorate his career a bit. Still feels like a downgrade...he should be moving to the Epl from Villarreal.

There's not ONE player from yesterday that would make our first 11. That's the point! No one expected those guys to beat Mexico.
Rohr for all his flaws is 100 percent right in his views on our home based players.
Rohr is not the problem of our local football - NFF is. I'm happy as we've seen the best(hopefully not) of the local based players that are 100 percent better than the "overrated foreign born players" like Eze, Toru, Tosin, etc.

Yeah but he's not good enough to break in our first 11 presently.

Hopefully these guys will take something out of this experience.
I truly hope this isn't the best the NPFL can offer. Truth is not one of these guys are good enough to challenge the bench players we have much less the first 11 of SE.

I don't think Manchin or any democrat can win in WV anytime soon.I might be wrong though Manchin is a conservative democrat and former governor still popular but with the way he has been behaving Dems should win more seats and he should retire in 2025.

I don't like is attention seeking.The media should ignore him
Yeah that's what I mean when I say Dems should use this to rally their base in other states. Manchin meanwhile can always push "country over party" angle and how he's been preventing the "progressive left" from hijacking the party.

That guy likes attention, there are many more American politicians like him, they rather play with people's lives.
I understand him pushing for Bipartisanship but he needs to be realistic. I doubt the likes of Moscow Mitch and Cruz would be this "noble" if they were in his shoes. Then again, he's in a very red state.

Moscow Mitch has come out against Manchin's compromise voting bill

The Democrats need to put Manchin in his place one person doesn't get to decide for 49 others.Manchin is not playing bipartisan he only cares about his donors and lobbyist that audio leak says it all.

Manchin doesn't care and he is very well aware that Moscow Mitch doesn't mean well for anybody.
Found it interesting he's willing to lower the filibuster threshold down to 55.
I'm happy the likes of Stacy Abrams have come out and said they don't have an issue with Voter ID.

About Eduard I think he is much more intelligent than Daka but Iheanacho would benefit more from Daka's runs and pressing the defenders

So a good signing for Iheanacho grin
Lool yep no doubt. Leicester's scouting is great man. Soumare and Daka.
I'm sure they're already looking at someone like Olise or perraira. Proper team.

I think they picked Daka because Salzburg was easier to negotiate and Daka is very much like Vardy
Exactly. Edouard is good but he doesn't make those runs in behind as much as Vardy does.

Leicester have made a bid for Patson Daka and are also chasing Eduard

Iheanacho has some big competition next season
I think it's one or the other, not both. I'm not surprised they've picked Daka...I don't think Edouard - Nacho would be a good partnership.

According to respected Spanish sports daily AS, Russian Premier League giants Spartak Moscow have made a bid to sign Nigerian striker Umar Sadiq but Almeria's asking price has not been met.

Spartak made a bid of sixteen million euros (approximately N7.68b) plus bonuses for the services of Sadiq who mustered 28 goals and provided nine assists in 56 matches combined for Almeria and Partizan Belgrade over the course of the 2020-2021 season.

Spartak Moscow are scouring Europe for a striker with the future of Jordan Larsson, the son of Sweden legend Henrik Larsson up in the air, and have identified Sadiq as the top target to replace the former Barcelona youth-teamer.

The second foreign club showing serious interest to sign the 2016 Olympics bronze medalist is Eintracht Frankfurt.

The German Bundesliga outfit's offer included 18 million euros (N8.64b) transfer fees plus bonuses.

Eintracht Frankfurt are looking at signing a replacement for Luka Jović who is heading back to Real Madrid following the expiration of his loan spell, while their top scorer last season André Silva is on the radar of several European teams.

The two offers from Spartak Moscow and Eintracht Frankfurt have been deemed insufficient by Almeria who value the Nigerian as from 30 million euros though he has a release clause of 60 million euros.
God please no. He needs to stay away from Russia. He should only be leaving Spain for Ligue Un or Bundesliga. Heck I'd prefer a championship team to going to Russia.

BREAKING: Nigerian Citizen Was Dominion ‘County Technician’ For Fulton County In 2020 Election…Nigeria Was Involved With Cambridge Analytica In Election Manipulation

I guess you've forgotten Cambridge Analytica also worked for Trump's campaign back in 2016.
Democrats who voted against using Dominion machines in Georgia somehow worked with them to rig Trump out.
Makes so much sense. Next you'll tell us Brad Pascale was a mole planted by Democrats to make Trump lose the elections.

Budaatum is smart enough not to insult people nor post people's pictures on the forum nor insult people as cultists.
Is dapo the 20moniker poster? Did you caution the people making fun of Dapos posts when all his crime was to disagree politically, He was insulted, his family and background was dragged here
When you are complaining about the 20 moniker dude how about dealing with the big elephant in the room who will insult night and day

Within the next 24hrs watch how many people will throw insults here. If its not about how they are suffering its about how their family are poor and where they are from

Someone posted pictures of a truck and sadness took over for him. The poster even had to apologize for owning a car that he will sell the car to make him happy grin grin cheesy cheesy
Dapo(or whatever his name is) is not a victim. This is the same guy who has no problem with insulting people's parents and kids for having a different political view.
I got banned one time for simply replying to his vile comments about my parents. The coward edited his initial comment and reported my reply.
One of the reasons I started taking screenshots of his comments was his cowardly tactics of editing his comments and coming to cry about how "leftists" attack him.

Because Sanders, Warren and Buttigieg were ahead of her was the reason you said she was not popular with liberals. I don't know where you get your crystal ball from but it's not grounded in reality. If Biden doesn't want to run in 2024, I can assuredly tell you that Kamala will be the front runner in the Democratic Primary being a current VP. Stop swallowing the haters on the Right Wing blogs. American politics is not the way you look at it. Predicting DeSantis will beat Kamala in 2024 is a fiction that can only happen if the Nation of Blue is sleeping and for your surprise, we will start our registration this coming fall after the labor day.

With all due respect edi, you are absolutely wrong. I don't know why you keep on your falsehood about Kamala relatively unpopular within liberal circles. I belong to a liberal registration group in Chicagoland that registered over 130.000 young people and newly minted naturalized citizens in Chicagoland last election circle and you are telling me Kamala is not popular. Stop reading and listening to the Hateful Right wing blogs and TV shows and news.
Sanders, Warren and Mayor Pete were well head of her before she dropped out of the primaries last year.
Let's not forget she couldn't even win CA.
She honestly was disappointing last year.

You are wrong on both premises. It's too early to sought out who is going to come out in a Republican primary that's over two years away and who told you that Kamala is unpopular in liberal circles. Where are you getting your information from and you can give me any proof to buttress your point. I wholeheartedly disagree with you for only one reason. It's too soon to call the game that's not scheduled yet.
Kamala performed horribly last year. If Biden didn't pick her as VP, we wouldn't be talking of her now.
Kamala isn't winning a national election. I hope Dems pick someone else for 2024 for their own sake.

DeSantis is the next bet IF Trump doesn't run. Kamala is still relatively unpopular in Liberal circles. Whether we'll see the "coalition" that put Biden in power support a Kamala run remains to be seen.
