Edopesin: it's a win win for levante and Nantes, maybe more for Nantes as they get to keep him at that cheap amount
it's the same amount levante bought him for Nantes may have signed him to sell him off at a higher amount like Osimhen to Lille |

ChrisKels: Saka is a poor left back. He can't defend, he is only good offensively. His positioning and marking are poor, and he is easily bullied or beaten on one-on-one situations by opposing wingers I was a bit kinder with my diction bit I was called a Bad-Belle. |

Personally once someone has Nigerian blood flowing through them I will celebrate them. That's why I will always be proud of joshua, John boyega, oyelowo, giannis, seal, sade adu etc. Joe carry on jare!!!!! Those guys you mentioned still in one way or another wanna be associated with Nigeria with the exception of Seal and Sade to an extent, but, I no fit send person wey no send me.

Joebie: First, Billing is a Dane. Can we all keep the rule that he shouldn’t be mentioned here? The answer is no, beacaise the issue really is who mentions the name, Billing, and as long as it’s not me, it’s okay. I promise you I won’t be the first to bring his name up here when the league resumes.  I have nothing against you doing whatever you want to do, but passing yourself off as the only rational being on here by your trolling is what would offend me.
I have no vested interest in Billing no more like I did before. As far as I'm concerned he no longer exist in my purview. |

Why should one only be presented with a choice between the BRAINLESS & the BALL-LESS, When there are a lot of other attributes one can possess.
Let him continue to allow things sly by, very soon, their men would be banned from urinating upright like it's done in Sweden. |

Arabiandude: Rangers’ Aribo needs time to adjust to African football – Super Eagles legend Taribo West
Despite top-notch performances from the 23-year-old for the West Africans, the ex-international feels the midfielder has not done enough.
Former Nigeria international Taribo West believes Rangers star Joe Aribo needs time to adjust to the playing style of African football.
The 23-year-old made an impressive start to his Super Eagles career when he scored on his debut against Ukraine in September 2019.
He followed that up with another impressive performance a month later in another friendly against Brazil, helping Gernot Rohr’s men clinch a 1-1 draw against the five-time world champions.
Aribo has now made four appearances for the three-time African champions and has been praised for his immediate impact with the national team by fans and former internationals.
West, however, feels the midfielder has not done enough and believes Getafe’s midfielder Oghenekaro Etebo, who is currently on loan from Stoke City to reignite his career, will perform better than him.
"I've watched Joe Aribo play for Nigeria, but in my view, it's clear he is yet to come to terms with it,” Taribo was quoted as saying by the Scottish Sun.
"There's no other way of putting this - I think Joe is not a bad player, but he needs time to adjust to African football.
"It's not the same as playing in Europe. In Africa, there's no time on the ball and for me, Oghenekaro Etebo is a far better option, He's quick, physical and reads the game.
"He should get Joe Aribo's spot when he comes back. African football is just too physical for Joe."
Besides his scintillating displays for the Super Eagles, Aribo has been delivering fine performances for Rangers under Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard.
The midfielder, who joined the Ibrox Stadium outfit last summer, was a key member of the Gers in the recently-concluded campaign, scoring eight goals and providing eight assists in 45 appearances.
Taribo retired from international duty in 2005, thus, ending his 11-year career with the Super Eagles and enjoyed success during his time.
He was part of Nigeria’s gold-medal winning team at the 1996 Olympics and also helped the Super Eagles finish as runners-up in the 2000 Africa Cup of Nations.
The centre-back, who had 42 caps for the three-time African champions, played in the 1998 World Cup in France as well as the 2002 edition.
Taribo, now a pastor, also starred for InterMilan, AC Milan, Auxerre and Plymouth Argyle among others before he quit professional football in 2008. I don't prefer Etebo.
He hugs on to the ball for a longer period of time, loosing possession in dangerous places where a simple pass would suffice instead of an unnecessary show of strength. I might pick Azeez ahead of Etebo even. |

safarigirl: he should have changed his name to his Jamaican step father's name, so, we will know he is completely dissociating himself from Nigeria
Dele Alli was raised by a Jamaican stepfather, Jordan Ibe too was raised by a Jamaican stepfather. Jamaican men must be waiting by the corner, to pick up a Nigerian man's slack in the UK Lol! Them Jamaicans and Nigerians don't really pally that well over there though. |

Anyway to the main point... Gosh I really like this man see what he has turned Canada into... Sorry guys I have nothing to contribute other than say I really like the Canadian leader...he is one to emulate Emulate what? Dude is totally ball-less. Allowing feminists run the full show would be his very undoing. We're watching what's going on in Montreal at the moment. |

Very good player
But him wahala no let am reach the top
Balotelli Dey learn
Joey Barton family na nsogbu
His brother should be serving a life sentence at the moment Ah tell u.
Dude ain't scared of no one.
Remember one match between Man City and QPR, He stepped on Tevez's leg and was red carded, after receiving the red card, he went on to kick Tevez who was still on the ground. Balotelli had to be held back then, he wanted fighting off Barton and Barton wasn't scared to confront him. |

komekn: Thats not even the worst.
For me the proverbial " dirty slap in the face" to black players is Lee Bowyer and Joey Barton both of them essentially racist thugs.
Joey Barton is a hooligan but despite all his misdemeanours which are present continous fighting other managers, etc . As soon as he finishes football his in management within months.
See screen shot about his brother below. I kinda liked Joey Barton back then though. |

He was a joy to watch at the Olympics. Watching him at the Olympics, I remember telling everyone who cared to listen that the guy would be a solid member of the team in the time to come |
