Too poor from the boys!

Nomyth:
Rohr drill this Benin team sha.

Na our boys Dey play rubbish jor nothing special

elyte89:
Make dem put Moses Simon in for look man..na rubbish baba just Dey play

We need to make like 3 changes to turn the game around

isan:
We need onyeka and fisayo in to that middle

It’s obvious those guys have the ace now there is no point they starting from the bench anymore when it’s an important game not to lose

Diavolo:
This osho guy is suspect. Making lots of simple mistakes with clearance and passes. Maybe it's the nerves but he needs to calm down

It’s his first game

Our players need to play with more urgency that’s what makes these African teams charge at us any how. I know the players are scared of injuries but they need to stamp their authority in the game

elyte89:
Libya 🇱🇾 can do the unthinkable to qualify o..Dey re leading …and. If we can do dem a favour by beating the next two opponents..dem fit qualify o

All these African teams sef na for naija dem go dey form voltron, but when they face themselves they fall like pack of cards. Imagine Rwanda losing to Libya at home, rubbish

khunz:
We might even qualify before kicking the ball tonight with Rwanda and libya still 0-0 @ 77min
Niger dey kill Sudan 4-0 79min

What’s the fate of our noisy bredas 😂

We just need a point for afcon qualification which makes it a simple mandate for the boys; don’t lose the game. Let’s do it guys

Starboytwo:
I choose mertens, well cuz they in Gala again together... Almost choose Dilorenzo..

The career trophy self hard, I been dey a little confused. I thought he self collect lille ligue 1 🤦

Na today I discover why Napoli president no gree for anybody. Na 70 mills that guy buy Osimhen. No wonder. Let's cut dilorentes just a little slack abeg.

Has Oshimen not delivered so much value already for Napoli? Wetin come remain

missjekyll:
God forbid.
It's a catastrophic disaster of monumental proportions.

Brace for impact everyone, there ll be an influx of Americans in the next few months. Brush up your CV o. Mk dem no come collect person job.
Ehen

Uncle Farage will be happier, he had told us to roll out the red carpet when the Americans come to town, no fear

Zahra29:
Lol I'm breathing great. Unlike some,I was bracing myself for Trump 2.0 so I'm not shocked at all.

On a serious note, Trump's new border tsar sounds ruthless, Elon and Vivek are going to make sweeping cuts to their civil service, Obamacare might not survive or might get slashed to bare bone, tariffs might end up pushing prices of consumer goods sky high while the rich get even richer, and the country is likely to become even more divided. I'm thankful as always that I don't live in the US.

No o, taxes are going to be lower and high wages will become a reality making citizens more wealthy that's what the Americans said they voted for, don’t let them accuse you of supporting the deep state o. They have left communism behind according to them.

“I would love to see Iwobi close to Osimhen and Lookman because he is playing way too deep for a very creative player. He is a player who can give those sexy penetration passes.”

See clip of his "sexy analysis" below:

became a legend with that statement you got to give it to Dan the bull, na man e be

Oh my God.

Matt Gaetz to be attorney General of the United States.

Am I f***ing dreaming?!

EGBAMI O! ANWUOLA MU O! Jesus I thank you that I chose the UK all those years ago. It was a toss up and I nearly chose the US but I changed my mind. Thank the Universe for me Ooooo!

No, you must relocate, They say it’s a cabinet of disruptive transformation, even the Secretary of defence is another banger. And you now add Elon Musk in charge of govt efficiency, the president general among the nations, omo this US govt must favour me o where is my visa, I need to port 😂. You’re coming with me no way!

jedisco:
In other news Canada is ending their default visit visa which was multi-entry and up to 10 yrs. @Zahra29 u didn't update us.

The interesting thing about migration into the English speaking West is that sometimes, dem dey follow themselves.

See me that was planning to tell my parents to go renew their passport so they can apply at at least come for summer most years with less stress.

I'm sure someone in their immigration department must have brought this up and ask why they charge £55 for a 10 year multi-entry visa when they could earn loads more by laddering it out. Moreso, given they welcome alot of permenent residents from developing nations who'd be keen to also have family visit. The money they could earn by commoditising the process is unreal and I wouldn't be surprised they start doing so.

You just like to trouble our dear Aunty Z sha, lol 😂 please let her breathe o, so much is going on in our world today, as some are increasing visa fees others are preparing for mass deportations, gbas gbos everywhere, can’t wait for 2025, so much in store for everyone.

GMBOFASIA:
Another assumption lol who told you lookman can’t pull such is it assumption or what someone that a better player all rounder and probably on his way to way APOTY back to back if he continues on this form it is well

😂 Assumption you say? Lookman is a baller but can’t pull such frenzy like osihmen

Ghana in crisis set to eliminate self

While Nigeria’s preparations remain on track, Ghana face significant challenges ahead of their own crucial qualifiers.

The Black Stars need a miracle to qualify for AFCON 2025, sitting on just two points from their first four games.

With Angola already qualified, Ghana’s path to Morocco looks bleak, as Sudan – currently second with seven points – need only two more to eliminate Ghana.

Ghana's Black Stars
Ghana’s Black Stars
To make matters worse, eight players have withdrawn from the Ghana squad, leaving the team severely depleted.

Star forward Iñaki Williams of Athletic Bilbao, Alexander Djiku, Tariq Lamptey, Ibrahim Osman, Jonas Adjetey, Antoine Semenyo, Jerome Opoku, and Joseph Paintsil will all miss the upcoming matches due to injuries or personal reasons.

Meanwhile, Osman Bukari, Ransford Yeboah Koningsdorffer, Forson Amankwah, Terry Yegbe, Ebenezer Annan and Kingsley Schindler have been called up to replace the eight players who pulled out of the Ghana squad.

Nigeria has been where Ghana is now, it’s a cycle but as soon as they start having more quality players again they will be out of the woods. I think the last word cup qualification was flattering, they have been down there for a long while.

TFLASHOGEE:
lol to people saying turkish league na back water league does not actually know what they are saying, I implore you guys to take a trip down to turkey and experience what a derby match between the istanbul clubs looks like then you will know better and for we that enjoys victor coming to turkey first hand i dont want him staying for long because he should be some where higher, but i wish he could stay a little bit longer my turkish friends both young and old invites me for dinner just to watch gala knowing osimhen is from same country as me and from there you make friends and connections that the impact of having your country man doing great in a country you reside

Please more people like you on this thread should be talking, our people don’t know the beautiful image these Nigerian players make for us abroad. I have entered taxis or Uber and once you say you’re Nigerian they start mentioning okocha, Kanu even our boxing folks like Israel Adesanya and Anthony Joshua immediately they rate you high knowing you are from where these excellent sportsmen originates from. My Italian line manager keeps asking me why Nigeria is not producing players like Kanu and okocha again. The more stars Nigeria produces the better our outlook as a nation out there and yes it comes with huge benefits not only for those in the diaspora but for folks back home. I want to see those days again when big clubs like Man U will play friendly matches in Abuja and it starts from the kind of hype our players abroad generates.

GMBOFASIA:
Shifting the post but hope if tomorrow Osimhen leave Gala and another super eagle player start playing in Turkish league he I’ll get same hype here

Osihmen had a mega profile before moving to Gala, the welcome party he had says it all, only the big stars like messi and co get such kind of welcome, can we say that for other Nigerian players? Even Lookman can’t pull such kind of frenzy. It is what it is. And that’s where the well deserved hype come from.

You guys keep looking down at osihmen and I can understand due to Napoli foolishness. They guy is made and for as long as he keeps scoring he will be hyped anywhere he play. Na follow come matter 😜. Let him score again this international break and everywhere will go crazy! Live with it dear! Dude was born for this!

GMBOFASIA:
Your point off no one talking about stadium but that doesn’t make Turkish league world class I myself have been opportuned to visit Stadiums in Qatar and they are world class does that make Qatari league world class

So the level of football in Qatar is up to Turkey? Have we not seen Turkey national teams play, do they look like backwater to you?

That their club sides beat teams from the so called world class leagues says a lot. Let’s stop the blind argument please

Napoleon55:
@Komkn.

U were complaining of people hyping Turkish league,
here you are listed it as one of the top ten.

By the way, what the ranking shows is the top ten men's football associations, it was clearly underlined,u should try to inform yourself first.
Unless u want us believe that championship and league one are higher than Turkish super league.
U always struggle so hard to appear more knowledgeable than others..

Just like i have pointed out earlier, below is the top ten leagues in Europe,even those who decides to include Turkish super league as one of the top leagues won't be all that wrong after all.

Those who say Turkish league is backwater league are just small children. I have visited beksitas football club stadium in Istanbul, even bought some kits there, lovely and beautiful place close to the sea that serves as the natural boundary that divides Asia from Europe. And that’s beksistas o we never talk about fernabache or Gala. No be hype their league is dope and the fans are so proud of it and fill the stadiums at every game. Their passion na confirm.

minfelix:
you are deceiving yourself more if you think african teams will totally erase the jam body football style…even our golden generation dey jam their way enter round 16 and Ghana,senegal,cameroon all also jam people enter quarterfinal….na only morocco decide not to jam but park dangote tipper enter semifinal

Even the Italian national teams always bully their way with their hard tackling game into the finals of either euros or world cups, it’s when they try to play fancy football they get kicked out. I’ve always been an advocate of playing what’s best or what works for you to get ahead in national team competitions

TheSuperNerd:
Bluefont is a far more tolerable presence here than Yesmen and yes women and Komeknish.

You will never find Bluefont going against our players unlike the other two always pushing the "pull him down agenda" button.

Very true, Oga blue font hardly bashes Nigerian players. In the days mikel was being castigated by almost everyone he was the lone voice in the wilderness defending the player always and was vindicated at last. That one I give it to him. Na nff and national team coaches Dey suffer pass for im matter 😜

Bannedlargejr:
Osimehn is doing well at turkey. We just don’t want him to be comfortable and be gaslighted to think, he shouldn’t leave. (Na tough love) it’s not like anyone said his a bad player or something my boy

How many weeks or months has he spent in turkey that you’re already raising alarm of being too comfortable. What does that even mean?

This was a player that was already sentenced to the youth side at Napoli or almost being pushed out of Europe. If he decides to stay one or two seasons in Turkey how is that anyone’s headache or business. I thought he’s no longer world class according to nairaland pundits.

Bannedlargejr:
And that’s why okocha never won an APOY despite being Nigeria most talented player in history. (Bad example)

Osihmen has won it already. Nothing remain

zicky:
oga make we leave that side, Onuachu had a mini world class performance in Belgium, in the national team he wasn't really given enough chance. We just don't rate him abi his style of play.

Has anyone bash onuachu in this conversation?

M7even:
Naso una go talk now, e go enter the boy head make e dey give club way rescue am last minute red flag behavior. When the right club comes, and it is just right for him to move, there wouldn't be too many rumors like he had the last time. It will be done quietly, amicably and professionally.

If no other team comes, he should enjoy his reign in turkey and if turkey becomes too difficult and the Saudis come, he should move there quietly. He seems to enjoy a large fan base in Nigeria, as long as he keeps contributing his quota when called upon he is good to go. And if tomorrow Nigeria has another great striker who can usurp Osimhen such is life. After all he has said it that super eagles no be for him papa. People come and people go.

The same Okocha we all adore played in this same Turkish league when it was so unpopular and from there moved to psg and finally to the epl

Na small boys with low emotional intelligence full this thread Dey argue nonsense

Odunayaw:
This should be pinned for those who are bent on projecting their insecurities about Osimhen on the rest of us.

At Belgium they said he needs a higher level, he went to France, they said "no, higher", Italy he still did his thing.

When he was only assisting, the demagogue were letting out hot air from their asses "he should be tearing the league". Now he is doing what should be their expectations but they are still cranky like a pregnant housewife!

If people like make dem de engage them.

Their hatred for the player is just too much, imagine VO took that Saudi offer and he was banging goals there they will be here to tell us he’s finished and can no longer play in Europe, dude never comot for Europe and still in uefa competitions still they can’t sleep well at night.

Even when he was in serie A their bad belle in chief always reminded us how inferior seria A was to other so called leagues, their matter don reach babalawo case o! This is nothing but sickness jor

Bannedlargejr:
Men STFU Chelsea had an offer for him on the last day of the transfer window and he refused only to sign for a Kebab backwater league and you want us to smile. Even playing at Tottenham is better than kebab league

Is Chelsea God? And is VO a kid that he doesn’t know what’s best for him? If the Chelsea deal was solid will he not make the move?

You’re just pained he’s scoring and anytime he scores you come here to remind us he’s in a backwater league, oya clap 👏 for yourself

Bannedlargejr:
Yea, it’s that situation that whether you score or not, people will talk simply because of the league. In the summer any bid club that offers even 150 he should accept and Run. No world class player in their prime is playing at the turkey kebab league

Do players just join any club, is not about those who are willing to buy. Dude is happy where he is, you guys are the ones giving yourselves headaches. Take him to any league he will bang in goals, he’s done it in Italy and France. He’s past that level of impressing anyone, he’s just having fun.

GMBOFASIA:
He is saying the truth 💯 there are double standards going on here nobody is saying Osimhen isn’t world class but why was onachu not getting the praises and all when he was playing in Turkish league

What’s the impact of onachu in the national team or his ranking in world football.

Osihmen is not being celebrated for nothing. It’s called antecedents, you guys should relax and stop the blind argument

Bannedlargejr:
Turkey league is a Backwater league my guy onuachu and nwakaeme tore the league with goals and nobody hype them here. All of a sudden, another player score at the weak league and una hype am. That’s the issue komehn is having at yall. Nonetheless, I don’t think osimehn quality is in doubt and he still remains a world class striker

You have contradicted yourself. If osihmen was not scoring you won’t even say this.

You lots would have reminded us how he need to appease the gods for him to succeed
