For me we are bashing the team too early the only sin they have committed is not scoring

charlesemeka85:
which chances?😳

Haba those ones fluffed by Boni na

oloriooko:
Rohr successfully neutralizing SE so far

If we converted our chances you won’t say this

I like the way Aina is joining the attack, something will give in soon I believe

Boniface should calm down he can do it

BankyGee:
Nice freekick Chukwueze

Am impressed!

Mujtahida:
Twitter different from field oo Oga Boniface.

I hope he does better next time that was indeed a wasted chance

AlbertoIancu:


I wonder why Chukwueze has been flopping for the SE lately. In his first games for us, he was untouchable, dribbling three or four players in one run. I wonder what happened.

I hope we get prime Chukwueze today.

For where? In these days of tiki taka 😂

FreeStuffsNG:

Very very petty, irresponsible and smacks of inferiority complex! This is horrible and completely repugnant. Haba!!

Nguri had been a field news correspondent for Channels TV and later a newscaster then got to work with BRF and now his current job. He went through the ranks and no time did any reasonable person consider the colour of his skin but his dedication to his job. It's very unfortunate what I just read.

Nigeria is full of horrible and very bitter people, once you have or do what they genuinely love to do, they begin to pretend and generate hatred. The jafar guy is just an example unfortunately. I also watch the Ajuri guy as a newscaster for channels years ago.

JohnBullMySon:


You cannot beat Rohr's Benin like that. Rohr is good at parking the bus. Also we don't even have the midfielders to achieve that.

The best thing AE can do is to set the team up the way it was during the nations cup. This is the same squad that executed that tournament. If we try to consolidate up front we would lose. We have to play conservatively so that Benin can play deep also and free up our wingers. This way we either draw or win.

If AE tries anything experimental, like high possession. The players may not adapt and it will lead to confusion. This is what Rohr is expecting. That AE would want to prove a point.

This has always been my point but many still believe we can play like Man City.

Like you have rightly said I just hope AE won’t go the Finidi route in trying to impress anybody with possession football just get your win even if you need to play haram football, na win people go remember o.

Marjoribanks:
Tomorrow game will be difficult! We will create a lot of chances taking them will be crucial.

Equaveon will play beautiful football, that I can assure you!

Damn beautiful football, what we want is a win. You know if Eguavoen doesn’t win tomorrow he’s going the way of Finidi even if he gives us sexy football and penetrating passes, nobody go hear story if he doesn’t win

mrwilliams9:


There were two contract extensions.

The one of last season that upped his wages to ~€10M a year and inserted the €100M+ release clause into his contract. It also extended his contract from end of summer 2025 until summer 2026.

The 2nd one reduced his release clause to €75M and increased his contract from summer 2026 to summer 2027.

Usually, when players agree on a new wage/deal terms, they extend the contract as well.

He messed up by signing that initial contract extension. That is where, as you correctly put it, he was being too loyal to Napoli. He should have stuck to his current contract then that was due to expire in summer 2025. If he did, he could leave next summer on a free unless Napoli sold him for a decent price.

My thing is this, Napoli have a history of overvaluing players that prevent them from moving. Look at what happened with Koulibaly.

Kim-Min Jae left because he had a reasonable release clause in his contract (less than €50M). Release clauses rarely ever benefit the player, it’s mainly for the club. Only time it may benefit a player is if the release clause is reasonably priced.

Haaland’s release clause was €60M. High enough that not just any club can afford it, but not so high that it may impact the player’s future compensation.

People forget the equation for acquiring a player is transfer fees+wages. If a club doesn’t have to shell out €60M on transfer fees, the player can ask for a portion of that fee as a salary or signing bonus (like Mbappe).

It’s easier said than done, if he didn’t prove to seen as loyal, many folks here would have bashed the player saying how ungrateful he is to the club. Too much analysis is paralysis and life is never straightforward most times you just live one day per time and hope that tomorrow is better. One major victory the player has achieved is to prevent humiliation from a club he helped to win a title by being confined to the bench and we just need to appreciate that.

All these talk about the Turkish league as if it’s in another continent outside Europe is what I don’t get, I bet you if this player had ended up in Saudi we will be hearing how finished he is as a player by naysayers. It’s high time we all move on and wish VO all the best in his career ahead. My focus now is what he can still deliver for our national team before he gets much older. Period

chrisooblog:
He broke George Weah's record of highest African goal scorer and he did it without playing for the big three AC and Inter Milan plus Juventus

Na u get time to Dey explain when evidence full ground. Explain till tomorrow Cynics don’t give a damn

andrewbaba44:


You can say he is not world class ,but you can’t call him an average player ,Never

He did it for both club and country, that’s extraordinary and exceptional.

andrewbaba44:
Ademola lookman nominated for ballon d or

Lmao ,there is no way he won’t win apoty

I can’t wait abeg

Na this kind news Dey sweet person, hope no one will tell us he’s not world class tomorrow, awon waec external examiners 😜

Joezinho:


Lol. I hope you had the same energy when this same Osimhen said ogun should kill some certain Nigerians. I hope you were hyped up when he insulted our legend finidi publicly? Dude still hasn't tendered an apology to Finidi and Nigerians at large for that unnecessary outburst and unprofessional act..

I was expecting him to rant life on Instagram insulting Napoli president and head coach for ridiculing him despite all what he did for the team, the same way he insulted Nigerians and coach finidi.

Legend kor, legend beer ni. 😂😂

😂 thanks for confirming my earlier view. We can never change. VO perhaps is the reason the National team is still yet to get a coach, phew

Joebie:
People will come and tell u Osimhen does not deserve an invite because he plays in Turkey.

It shows how toxic we are becoming as a people

We have forgotten how for many years no Nigerian player smell APOTY for many years until VO came.

I am beginning to observe that our greatest players and coaches in recent years have been the most hated and bashed, e.g mikel, Keshi, Amodu, enyeama, VO and even paseiro. We even prefer the mediocre coaches like finidi and oliseh who damaged our NT more and some mediocre players I don’t want to mention for controversial reasons. Something is wrong with us somewhere so tey we can’t even get a coach for our NT anymore all because of toxicity.

komekn:


You are among the shameless ones.

You have no principles or stanfardoupi move the goal 🥅 posts in an emotive whim.

All of a sudden the backwater Turkish retirement league is to be celebrated because VO is now there.

Something that should have brought never ending lamentations is being celebrated, what a SHAME.

Even if we are lamenting, are the Turkish people themselves not celebrating abi wetin be your problem gan, make everybody join you cry? 😜

komekn:


Hate and Love are very similar they are both anchored ⚓ on emotive sentiment, highly irrational, they make the participants to be blinded by their emotions and makes them to become FOOLISH.

Look 👀 at the shameless bigoted double standard and naked hypocrisy.

There was unequivocal consensus that the Turkish league is poor quality rated number 10 in Europe and it's a place for retirement and big pay outs ( tax free)

But look 👀👀at the U turn of VO fanatics now hailing his move to Turkey. When you play in Turkey 🦃 you loose relevance and nobody will look at you as world class.

It's a poisoned chalice if he does well it will muted in the context it's a poor league if he doesn't do well his value will plummet like lead in water 💦.

You’ll soon eat your words again later cos your definition of world class changes from morning till night

charlesemeka85:
🚨⛔️ Napoli confirm they have NO plans to reintegrate Victor Osimhen in the squad.

Decision shared by Antonio Conte and the management, as both confirmed tonight.

#FabrizioRomano

Why not allow him go, na winch?

Truidstarr:
A lot of analysis on the osimhen situation. One thing folks are leaving out is the power of the Napoli ultras and fans. Osimhen is revered at Napoli. Conte and ADL should pray they win games home and away. Don’t be surprised to hear chants of Osimhen at games when things turn bad. Osimhen relax collect your money.

Simple, thank you jare. The way the conversation is going on here, you will think osihmen have been sacked or now clubless, even those saying he will chop bench I just Dey laugh 😆

The most funny one is those saying he should apologise to his teammates and a failed coach called finidi as if na dem tie his destiny 😂

charlesemeka85:
Madueke Hattrick 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

omo the guy dey vex gan, wetin wolves do am?

madueke on fire!

KingCold:
you're denying the obvious boss..

Fix your damn country while we fix ours. Nigerians or Nigeria are not the origin of your issues

KingCold:
Ah..typical...the always self-flattering conclusion, Me "obsessed" about you...smh.. so delusional

When you’re blindsided and insistent on narratives that suit your agenda, phew

KingCold:
Did I say you were the only ones or did I say Japa mania is mostly prevalent there? Nobody's obsessed with going abroad quite like Nigerians

Same with Ghanaians, Somalians, Zambians Zimbabweans and others. These nationalities I mentioned have very large communities in the diaspora perhaps you’re not that informed but obsessed with only Nigerians

KingCold:
LOl.. you're now coping out.. trying to change what you were saying by talking of a bigger African narrative.. And nope, Kenyans are not obsessed with Japa quite like Nigerians. no African country is

You lie, go to Arab countries like Qatar and UAE and see Kenyans and other eastern African countries slaving out there. It’s because we are loud you think Nigerians are the only ones obsessed with the japa syndrome. Humans are migratory naturally. Is it only Nigerians that are crossing the Mediterranean Sea? Please tell me

KingCold:
Are you doing anything towards your oppressor boss? instead of Japa and drowning? Why don't you lead by example like Kenya?

You people are so adept at coming online and pointing fingers "This one's slave" and that one's "oppressed" blah blah

But when I look at Nigeria all I see is oppression, grand scale oppression! what are you doing about that?..

Which Kenya, are they not leaving their own country in droves too? How is SA any better? Look here, Africa is sick but the greater sickness is what we do to each other which is affecting all of us economically and socially as a continent. No African country is getting it right let’s not kid ourselves

Kushites:


It doesn’t matter.

We cannot have a situation in Africa where they have “whites only” toilets, and blacks needing to show their passes to whites before they can enter a city in Africa.

It’s a stain on all of us.

Had to go.

Is it not their country? That’s the problem perhaps we were helping a nation that wasn’t even ready to be free. Till today they can’t even bark at their true oppressors. Why bother

Kushites:


No brother.

Nigeria owed it to the black world to intervene.

Apartheid was a a disgrace and affront to every black person on Earth, not just the mumu black South Africans.

It had to go.

At what cost? Are they not more in bed with the same oppressors today?

South Africa remains the worst foreign policy of Nigeria ever. We threw away resources like water into a basket.

I once had a landlady who is a retired foreign affairs civil servant. She told me that when obj as a military head of state was wasting all these resources then all in the name of fighting apartheid that a uk foreign minister called obj and asked him if he knew what the consequences will be especially relations between the uk and Nigeria. It was after then immigration to the uk became more difficult for Nigerians especially in terms of job opportunities for Nigerians. South Africa was indeed bad market for Nigeria and more of a curse than a blessing. Even till today it’s still much easier to get a visa to the uk than South Africa, phew.

Ṣebi Tinubu is not your President, exercise patience bikonu, soon and very soon, your own president will soon implement his own student loan.

Obidients so shameless, you turn your back on the country because of election loss and now want to chopulate di benefit. Shame no dey catch una?

They said all sorts when the implementation of the loan began that 20k per month allowance was a joke now they need it badly now.
