When someone wants to be clever by half like you, this is what they spill. Look at the bolded below carefully




At the bolded statement, meaning.... Since it's a matter of opponent, with Arsenal he faces more disciplined opponents but with Nigeria it's not.

In other words, Zambia, Algeria, Cameroon, and Argentina are all less disciplined teams.

If this isn't you degrading the teams we have played so far then, I wonder what it is.

The way some of you reason sometimes is funny!... So we here are all toddlers or probably you think us fools who can't differentiate a snide remark.

You must not tell a man he is stupid before he knows that you have insulted him.

Some level of education can prevent poorly designed scams. Players can avoid getting swindled by agents and signing slave contracts if they know what to do to protect themselves.

Hope you remember Kanu was duped too,it's not about people you moved with and till today Kanu never get over it,he should thank God for his great personality that's paving way for him now through his foundation.

My man let pray not to fall victim of 419 syndicate or a close pal whom you trust but is looking for a way to swindle you

Austin Okocha too almost lost his hard earned money when SGBN had issues but God smiles on him cos he is a top personality,did you know how many Nigerians who have lost fortunes through bad investment.

My man education is the key though we seems not to appreciate it any longer due to easy money in sports and entertainment industry but i realized that educated ones always manages their little resources and earn respect.

Pls compare Segun Odegbami and Adokiye Aimeseameka to their mates,the two are up there leaving a very good life cos they are educated.Felix Owolabi too who had PHD in PE. is having it good.

Seyi Olofinjana despite little money he made is doing well cos of his education and moving faster than his peers in sports entrepreneurship.

Pls check Mike Emenalo rising profile,this is a graduate of Boston university and had poor career as a footballer saving for WC appearance but his education is pushing him up everyday.

Jonathan Akpoborie a US university graduate too had serious issue relating to illegal migrants to the extent his contract was terminated but till today his education is helping him out by having a decent life.

Waheed Akanni also a US university graduate is leaving a cool life despite having a short career as a footballer.He is now the rally point for ex internationals just cos of his education and exposure.

My man education is the key cos if a man is down but looking at his certificate,smiles always comes cos it pave ways unannounced.

I was waiting for this "save" from the poacher's strike.... Sir Goldfish will make a good goalie y'all....

Egypt and Morocco are more Arabian than African....this your narrative is funny. The closest countries to being white just happen to be the most organised, okay

ChrisKels:
Lol u rly wanna know where he is? Oya ask Icon4s, komekn, forgiveness etc

Lol I will never forget when u warned us against that guy. U were like "Tammy doesn't strike me as a player we need, not now, not even anytime in the future" Bros u get foresight oo

ChrisKels:
When I broke the news of Rohr's progress in the pursuit of the German boys sometime late November last year, some people thought I made it up, while some were questioning his continuous pursuit of these boys while the pro innit boys were tagging him a nepotist who is biased with his decisions when it concerns the Germans. People like Kog45 and tbaba1234 tried to be smart, hence, tbaba1234 said Uduokhai would be a lost curse, because, out of the trio, he was the only one with a feasible German dream as he is immensely talented, many reasons were given as to why our pursuit of him was a pipe dream. I jst giggled, and ignored the various quotes because my insider never gives me fake news. U all can now c for urselves

To those pro innit boys, PLEASE which of those average innit players can boldly say he is open to playing for Nigeria? People want us to worship whack players like Adarabi just because he is a mancity prodigy, tomori etc. Though Felix is head and shoulders above those innit guys, did u all see how respectful he sounded to the GWG? No innit player as talented as Felix will admit Nigeria is an option late alone being open to playing for Nigeria

Believe it, or not Jordan and Akpoguma are seriously reconsidering their earlier stances.

Or else u will b charged to COURT,BABA U B LAWYER !

I share your concerns.

Your observations are not in dispute. But having read numerous posts by you. I will qualify it with an assumption to bring clarity. That you are highlighting that we have only one outstanding player playing in a top league that's consistent and in form. That player would be Ndidi, his age irrelevant.

However. I would bring in Victor Moses and Iwobi as playing top flight although not as consistent as Ndidi. But top performing yes.

The rest of our entire defensive line up of CB's are either playing in the backwaters of Turkey or struggling to make first team in a bottom of the league Bundesliga team that I would equate on par with an English Championship team if not lower.

We have China crew of players excluding Obagoal. And players who are not even the stand out players in thier far from highly rated leagues.

Every team that has got to the final of the World cup has had the larger % of its players playing in the top leagues of the World. In addition with a good number of World class or emerging top quality outstanding players in the team.

Considering my observations would you say that's reflective of the SE Team spirit can only get you so far but Quality will propel you Further.

realpoacher:
This is double standard down there.

It is becoming clearer by the minute where your allegiance lies.

In one minute you were caught saying we haven't played any Grade A team with a solid defense,,but when called out about Argentina, you quickly downplayed their loss to us. I bet, if we had lost that particular friendly match, your statement would have read...

"we were scoring with ease against weak opponents but when we met Grade A team with a solid defense like Argentina, we lost or we couldn't score"

Many members here have been on your case all week concerning the way you berate both our players and the SE as a whole. You have never said anything good about them, it has been from one complain to the other about them without profering a single solution to the problems you highlighted.

You see, when I make accusations against you and people like you on this thread that you guys have hidden agendas against the SE, you all feel slighted.

I mean, isn't it obvious from the way you all talk from both sides of your mouth?.... Whenever we lose or play badly, you all spring forth from wherever you are hiding at to insult our players and find fault at will. Regardless of the opposition.

But whenever we win even against a big team, you all will rather downplay our win rather than congratulate the boys. If that isn't double standards then I wonder what it is

Your type, even if we qualified for the quarter finals of the world Cup this year.., it will be either a fluke or that tournament itself is poor, or that all the teams we met gave us a leeway!

You guys are a lost cause

Your motive for being here is getting clearer by the day but God pass una

Wetin. Una day find, Una no go see

Icon4s:
But Argentina was a grade A opposition.

And I must also point out that some of those African defenses are very difficult nuts to crack o.

Icon4s:
Sure they have seen the last couple of goals he scored for Nigeria and so they would expect same if not more from him at Arsenal.

His end product for Nigeria is always top notch so why can't he do same or more for Arsenal that natured him and are paying his salary?

Icon4s:
You get the point.

The expectations on him are high right now. The bar has been raised for him.

He on his part really needs to rise to the occasion or fall completely out of favor.

Coaches do not ignore the voice of the fans for too long o.

krattoss:
sometimes it's not easy for these coaches oooo. .
if Wenger was a jittery kinda coach, he would have bowed to criticism in his players a long time ago, but reverse is the case...maybe just like mourinho said, HE HAS THE SAFEST JOB ON THE PLANET

Liamm:
I'm a critic of Iwobi too but the performance he put out yesterday underscores the saying that indeed " form is temporary and class is permanent"(borrowed). He was only let down a couple times by his end product after completing a successful take-on. Something we barely witness when he's clad in the GWG. I reckon it's lack of understanding on the part of his teammates at club level

BascoVanVeli:
Honestly I don't care what u believe and I still feel he was decent against Nottingham.

BascoVanVeli:
IMO he was the best player that the gunners paraded at least until Alexis came in.

safarigirl:
What is your definition of in form?

I thought the initial argument is whether our players are playing regularly or not, now it is whether they are in form or not.

This is how many months to World Cup? And you have already concluded we are not taking in form players to the tournament, pesin no fit pick form by March and even lose form in May? So, which one is we are not taking in form players to World Cup? Is this the new narrative?


Abeg, make una no dey blindside us with these funny arguments. Na so una talk last year say we go lose to Cameroon because our team does not have the chemistry Cameroon has after playing AFCON together, and what did we say that time? The match is still months away.


This your argument about who is in form for World Cup is quite premature to be honest

safarigirl:
First of all, Ndidi is 21

Second of all, so, Ekong, Victor Moses, Ighalo, Mikel, Ogu, Onazi, Awaziem....these ones are not in form? What is your definition of 'in form' exactly?

safarigirl:
don't waste your time. The neutral observers are not impressed

Mujtahida:
Just now you don give up@ your last line?

BascoVanVeli:
Iwobi has given resounding response

komekn:
And there are those who think the Championship is ewah and dodo.

What I have said is the EPL is the most competitive league in the World. The championship is its first cousin and the gulf is there but not as huge as some may think.

For instance the Bundesliga has been dominated by one club for near two decades. The Scottish league by Celtic for almost a decade. La Liga not so much and Seria A as well.

It's in this regard I look at the championship as being on par or superior competitively not necessarily technically to leagues that are ranked below the top 5.

I would say the lower half of the Bundesliga is on oar with the Championship my biased opinion.

komekn:
Fans talk is essentially WIND & FRESH AIR amounts bto nothing and shouldn't be regarded as anything.

TheSuperNerd:
The joke is not on Iwobi. The joke was on you naa... About "winning from a clinical sense" mehn... You sef! Imagine me explaining the joke! Chaaaiiiiii... It must be as dry as sahara desert.
If I were a comedian ehn and had a show for a laughter fest... I no go invite you!




But seriously shaa I do recall you saying he has the best first touch, possibly in world football. He will learn from this. He is 21. I am sure as we speak he is getting some talks from his uncle and more. Dude is definitely not alone. Just that sometimes, we wanna have fun and we get distracted. Fun is like a sports car sometimes, only room for one. Iwobi needs a van with room for family and more to help guide him because with a sports car, he will spiral out of control and burn alone.

Icon4s:
Calm down bro. E nova reach like that.

TheSuperNerd:
Laugh sef you no gree laugh.... Na joke naa.... Abeg Elyte89, Do4luv14 and Icon79... come teach me comedy work... this guy no laugh ooo... I just tire for am.

TheSuperNerd:
TheSupernerd, Mickael2 and even Darkseid's cousin with cosmic powers, Darkelf all validated your points from a clinical sense.... Chaaaiiiiii... I can only imagine.


Sir Goldfish80 right now.....

BascoVanVeli:
Like I said u were not the one smoking by him so u can never tell us if the second hand smoke around him was enough to register THC in his system. It has to be some serious smoke around u before it registers in the test. Also people could have been smoking in an entirely different room from where he was, u cannot prove that he ingested anything so stop spreading rumors.

BascoVanVeli:
Were u the person blowing weed in his face? U cannot tell that he had marijuana in his system merely because people smelled it at the party he invited. It doesn't work that way, if so we would all be high
