Wait ooo so Lookman don finally leave Atalanta wowww 💃💃💃💃💃

Happy for the player after all he’s been through in Atalanta. This is a big victory for him!

Clint02:
I hope ATL is not racially abusive. Cause it seems very few Africans have played there.

Was Atalanta or Italy not racially abusive?

TheSuperNerd:
Major Lookman games to look forward to in ATM colors:

Feb 8: Atletico vs Real Betis (La Liga) - Lookman's likely league debut

Feb 14: Rayo vs Atletico (La Liga) - Lookman's likely 1st away game in La Liga

Feb 18 & 24: Atletico vs Club Brugge (UCL) - Lookman v Onyedika

Mar 22: Real Madrid vs Atletico (La Liga)

Apr 5: Atletico vs Barca (La Liga)

Apr 12: Sevilla vs Atletico (La Liga) - Akor vs Lookman



NB: Atletico's next game is in the copa del rey on thursday (Feb.5) vs Betis but I dont know if Lookman will debut then.

You don carry this matter for head fa! 😂 You need a raise boss!

TheSuperNerd:
Ademola to Atletico pleaseeeee!!! Abeg!

Fenerbahce❌️❌️❌️

Are you ready to pay him his desired salary? 😂

flourishing247:
Did they already buy tickets or they are hopeful the flight will soon start? I am genuinely confused. If the terms are not favourable to Air Peace, then they will definitely pull out of the deal. So what's the shouting about? Abi I no read the article well?

Same question I was going to ask about if tickets has been purchased and flights were cancelled 😂 if not it’s just another propaganda

BankyGee:
But not on the UCL table. I can live with that 😁

Omo those players don't play on Osimhen's level at all. Gundogan was more of a Man City spy and fanboy than a Galatasaray player and captain yesterday. Thank God it was a respectable scoreline. I really needed Osimhen to score tho. That one don go Beyen.

Gala was poor yesterday make we no lie as in the same Gala that played athletic Madrid a week ago! Apart from Man City strength they didn’t really give a good account of themselves yesterday.

AndSunGorilla:
Osimhen don score? Bankygee abeg now, update please as I nonfit watch d game.

2-0 o

Man City wan wound Gala o 😂

do4luv14:
Now another twist is in the mix,

Reports Online is that FIFA had distance itself from any ban and sanction against Senegal, and had inform that any ban from CAF is for Africa Only


Omo times ahead ahead mehn

I agree with the quality of the Senegalese team it will be foolish not to have them at the World Cup

lbrichman2:
Good morning everyone..
Just imagine if CAF does this..
This is a very real possibility..
If you have noticed, neither CAF nor FIFA have officially recognized Senegal as AFCON 2025 winners..
Something is seriously brewing

😂 I think CAF is just under pressure to protect the integrity of the game to avoid setting a bad precedent but this is what they should have been doing before that final game Their lack of consistency in integrity and fairness led Senegal to this mess!

For me it’s better they ban Senegal from the World Cup instead of stripping them of the Afcon title

This is sad, RIP and condolences to Ndidi and his entire family

Ihenzy:
I don't know if I'm getting it wrong but eguavoen wasn't canvassing for NPFL Players. What he said was, Chelle invited players from obscured leagues like Mohammad Usman who everyone knows he wasn't going to play. Why not invite at least one talented prospect from the NPFL in that spot.

Why I agree with him on that school of thought I will still maintain that NPFL players should be invited strictly on merit and I'm sure Mohammed Usman is not better than all the players we have in the NPFL.

Eguavoen should leave the decision to the coach. Period. If the coach doesn’t deliver then we can crucify him for not inviting who and who.

elyte89:
More reason none of them
Shld be considered again

Those saboteurs in the name of ex players will blame nff in the media but behind they connive with the same nff to sabotage the national team. Hypocrites!

TheSuperNerd:
This Oliseh ehn. Anyway as you know, I have always been Pro-Amunike and so is TheGoodJoe but right now, no way am I accepting a change of hands in the coaching reins of the Super Eagles. Absolutely not. Amunike is experienced and all, proven yes but let him keep doing his thing at Heartland in the NNL to bring them back into the NPFL.

I dont wanna have to start from square one especially with us heading in the right direction under Chelle.

Eric Chelle has given this team a bonafide playing identity. An attacking side who uses possession to transit directly, create chances upon chances and choke the opponents into conceeding more than they can try against us.

Eric Chelle has to be left to continue his work abeg while Amunike should continue his work at Heartland for now abeg.

Why change a good thing?

Oliseh and gang don’t mean well for the national team. Thank God Chelle did well at the Afcon all those attacks on osihmen would have been diverted to Chelle. You can also see Eguavoen blaming Chelle for not inviting home based players. We are in deep shit with these ex players as they will continue to interfere in our senior national team for their personal agenda.

Apart from Amokachie who publicly said nff should retain Chelle we can now see that others don’t mind Chelle being asked to go irrespective of performance.

Odunayaw:
The response of Amaju to Amuneke matter should be clipped and send to all the ex-players WhatsApp daily.

The NPFL is there for the taking! Get busy instead of forming a queue.

In fact Amaju finish work for that Amunike matter. It’s a big shame that the likes of oliseh and other ex players see the national team as their retirement package, see him begging for Amunike, it’s like coaching the national team has become turn by turn limited for them.

lbrichman2:
I read a report yesterday by Colin Udoh, that Keshi evaluated over 600 npfl players for months and was able to select only 6 for his AFCON 2013 team then..
The rest were simply not good enough..

Out of the 6, only Oboabona(a starter) and Mba(a sub) played any significant minutes..

When our local coaches come with this homebased players hogwash, just know someone wants to sell spots that's all

The fact that our local clubs don’t do well on the continent says it all!

robosky02:
Home base players way won to bend Eric Chelle career for CHAN

They will force the home base players on him to derail him!

lbrichman2:
With their rotten attitude, almost all of them

If Chelle contract is not renewed just know they have succeeded especially with eguavoen saying he’s not happy the home based players are neglected. Na so their agenda Dey start

charlesemeka85:
if the NFF lose Chelle we re back to square one 🤦‍♀️

Amunike is being pushed for the job again wait for oliseh interview with Amaju on Wednesday

Your 94 set sees the eagles as their personal property

RodgersAkpafu:
Annexing a territory as part of yours and removing a despot for crooked reasons are not remotely the same thing
Let us use our brains and "reason this matter" for once

American interests (in cahoots with Russian oligarchs et al) have funded disruptive elements across Europe (Le Pen, AfD etc)
Orban is the product of that
Brexit manipulation and the. results was another
Even the election results in Poland last year

Trump is just the dummy that spelt it explicitly in the security strategy documents that his admin released.

In my books, that interference is the same as interfering in who leads Venezuela

A reasonable equivalence would have been America saying they will annex Venezuela (or parts of it ), Iraq, or Kuwait as part of the United States, which we both know has never happened

So yeah, Europeans have EVERY RIGHT to cry foul when a drunk despot want to annex a part of their territory, and it is not by any means "hypocrisy" like some here are wrongly framing it
Just saying sha

In Trump first admin, European countries suffered "woto woto" from Trump tariff wise, and other aggressions
That same drunk negotiated with the taliban unilaterally and left European allies stranded in Afghanistan, making them abruptly withdraw

So this narrative that "hand just dey touch them" is very wrong
Its more complex than the simplistic framework I have seen some frame it

😂 you just like to argue over nothing sha

darkelf:
Awoniyi has nothing to offer the eagles

It's not even about the stats. Bros style is play is yuck

There no match awonoyi is playing and you expect a goal....it's that bad

Let's not deceive ourselves by holding onto sentiments

You guys should stop saying stuff like this. Ndidi has been written off even before Afcon as having nothing to offer anymore but today it’s a different story. For as long as a player hasn’t retired he can still be useful to any team on a lucky day.

Imagine Nottingham saying Awoniyi has nothing more to offer before yesterday’s game. Let’s stop all these our arrogant takes please!

Mujtahida:
He has me

una no reach

ChrisKels:
All these Awoniyi talks because he scored today...his first goal in months.

He has had his chances with the eagles, and we have seen what he can offer. Dude can't be relied on, but congrats to him for scoring today.

Same thing was said of onauchu!

elyte89:
If we can pull dis thru …I might replace chelle cos me and my lawyer are really working behind d scenes to ensure we qualify for the World Cup …so our compensation shld be the plum job

you get vodoo? if you no get the players no go respect you like they respect chelle o! you think say na play?

Arsenal matter don become prayer point o!

lbrichman2:
I've missed that his strength o
They couldn't muscled him off the ball
Would have been useful against the Moroccans

I tell you! especially when Akor was struggling, we for remove am just carry Awoniyi enter


The Eagles squad keeps getting more competitive

lbrichman2:
Chelle give them something chop
Nothing anybody wan tell me
Even those on the bench returned to their clubs with fire

When the coach said congo use vodoo, we dey doubt am, Chelle sabi things wey we no know o!

lbrichman2:
Beautiful goal at that
Extremely important for his confidence..
Let's go on a run Awo!!!

The guy scored as if he played in AFCON, omo!

Mujtahida:
Citizenship is based not only on blood but on naturalization. So yes if Qatar has such laws and I think they do, then nothing stops them from giving citizenship to people and constituting them into a team.

You see those Caribbean countries that sell citizenship to anyone for a fee na there wahala go begin

Karlovych:
Well Togo tried it in 2003 before Keshi dropped them a year later.

Something from over 20 years ago, the likes of Cape Verde haven't got the memo then, but today they are in the World Cup, courtesy of such kind of players

elyte89:
2026 World Cup …Mr man 🤨🤨🤨

ok o! your faith pass my own

Karlovych:
DR Congo issued passports to those players because their parents are Congolese, I wonder where Qatar and Bahrain will get South Americans with parents with Qatari and Bahrain origin.

you've not seen anything, let FIFA just rule in Congo's favour first. FIFA sef, their eye go first blurr!
