ChrisKels: This b.s.t called Gusau will go down in history as the worst NFF president ever.
Na now this thing dun begin pain me. Why in God's name did he allow SA to play their away games at home and also allow them move our last match against SA to a pitch not worthy of hosting a match? Pinnick wouldn't have allowed this, though I still blame him for imposing this slowpoke on the NFF.
How much did these people pay this edeot for goodness sake?
Ola Aina is one of my favorite players and sometimes I fear that injury caused by that SA poor pitch has ruined his career. 😡 He’s an absolute idiot..he has no idea of what he’s doing .he’s just occupying a space in the glass house . He is dt clueless |

Napoleon55: If the OGs catch you,my hand no dey there,you no go dey happy, if in 30 years from now,some described Osimhen with something similar.
You can't judge a player when he is off form. Yekini may not be as classy as Siasia, but he is not technically poor.
Rashidi would still be ranked among the greatest Nigerian strikers of all time for generations to come I would say yekini is just like a modern “haaland” of today with physical presence…baba just wan score ,nothing concern am with any other thing |

TheSuperNerd: Eswatini will never be on the level of even Zambia no matter how many foreign-born talents they bring in.
DRC is recruiting good but we still saw how Algeria stopped them at the Afcon. Same Algeria we outplayed for 90mins. DRC has always been a force since the 70s... their resurgence is good for African football but they are still not complete. Their game vs Jamaica showed some of the depth of their deficiencies.
Senegal, CIV, Morocco all recruiting in droves and it is no news coz it is what they have been doing. Now how many are really quality? How many will they play? Dont get me wrong, Senegal, CIV and Morocco are legitly strong sides in African football but none of their foreign born-talents have won the APOTY except Madrid-born Achraf Hakimi of Morocco.
Look at Nigeria, we may not have the Volume of Foreign-born talents recruitment compared to the countries mentioned above (especially as most of our dual nationals prefer England or france or Germany or Denmark or any other euro state) but when we do succeed in recruiting, we are lucky enough to land truly talented lads.
Victor Moses was a fantastic recruitment who eventually won an Afcon.
Ademola Lookman came in 2022 and won the APOTY for 2024. That is a gap of just 2yrs+.
Calvin Bassey came in and arguably is Africa's best and strongest CB today. The last Afcon showed this.
Ola Aina has established himself as one of Africa's best RBs behind Hakimi.
Bright Osayi Samuel showed up huge at the last Afcon at RB in Aina's absence.
Emmanuel Fernandez of Rangers got recruited and just recently debuted and boy! What a talent he is at the back... a lad who will inevitably go on to greater things in the GWG and in his club career.
These are just some of the strong examples showing the quality of our dual-nationals/foreign-born talents recruitments despite the multitudes of NO or disinterest we have encountered from the likes of Olise, Eze, Saka, Musiala, Tammy, Tomori and co. And guess what? We are still pushing recruitment efforts and structurally this time through a diaspora monitoring committe
And I know you will mention World Cup but mind you.... ....the major reason we are not at the World Cup was due to administrative indecisions/flop decisions moving us from Jpes to Finidi to Eguavoen before we found Chelle.
The NFF General Secretary admitted it already that "...if Chelle had began the WCQs, we would easily be in USCAMEX 2026..." So lesson learnt. Concerning d World Cup failures, It goes beyond coaching, i can bet it with u that lessons have not been learnt; because by now if truly it has been learnt, we shld be seeing serious signs of nff engaging private sectors or govt to ensure we have 2 standard stadiums 🏟️ ready in country for the next series of qualifiers..several times the players most especially iwobi has criticised nff of not providing the best playing surface Dey re used to in Europe(bad pitches, playing under bad conditions)..it’s like we re playing “away” from home , infact in our last two World Cup qualifying campaigns shows dt we have lost/drawn more home World Cup games ;due to the issues highlighted earlier ….yet we want to qualify,how do we qualify for the World Cup when we hardly win our home games. In 2022, we almost lost to Cape Verde 🇨🇻 at home if not for ndidi defensive block around 89 mins or so, we almost missed d playoffs We thought we av learnt from dt, yet our mumu administrators failed to spot the issues of not winning our home games effectively. We all know aw the 2026 wcq turned out .. we drew most of our home games. I can say it authoritatively that if this issue is not addressed b4 next wcq campaign for Morocco 🇲🇦 Spain 🇪🇸 Portugal 🇵🇹 2030, we would not qualify. |

DeloitteNG: I saw rumors that Gala has set their asking price at 150M If the clubs are not ready to pay that and Gala are not ready to sell way below that amount then I don't think there is anything Osimhen can do about that 150M is unrealistic and unreasonable; he shldnt be going more Dan 90M max for his age |

TheSuperNerd: Meanwhile, Christantus Uche may have been removed from the UECL squad during the January/Feburary adjustments as allowed by UEFA but according to same UEFA, he is eligible for a medal should Crystal Palace lift the UECL title.
50 winners medals are given out to the UECL winners.
40 to the UCL winners and 40 to the UEL winners.
So Uche should get one. If he does not, then palace really run am streets. Uche should go back to Spain or Germany 🇩🇪 |

Napoleon55: Chukwueze na Osimhen's mate na,he is still valuable for some years. Iwobi and Ndidi too Only osimhen can be pardoned to some extent..for aw long are we going to be patient….generally this guys are under performing or they are not just good enough as we think |

TheSuperNerd: Most of those talking down Chukwueze or writing him off are just doing it off his penalty miss vs Morocco. Most of them have not forgotten and it is such a narrow way to analyse players.
Chukwueze is still a strong valuable player in the Super Eagles and My God! When I think of his 2 assists to Osimhen vs Benin in Uyo, I see a baller that is not done with making more magic in the GWG. Bro ,I disagree with ur second paragraph,I Expect you to have stopped analysing our players or better still pampering dem with just a good performance from many worst games they have played for us. If not dt we are yet to c quality replacement,some set of players in super eagles shouldn’t be getting any form of excuse or a pat at d back for a good performance out of deir usual worst overall performance.dis particular player has played over 10years for eagles and i count with my fingers where played well for us . For aw long are we going to keep pampering dem…I pray we have good replacement for dem and sort dis 𝒎𝒇 . Players like chukwueze,iwobi ,ndidi , Simon ,uzoho etc |
