neighy: the way u dey include Tammy this days enh.. E b like una 2 get agreement
bro...Tammy is a baller his height and finishing is top notch for a 19 year old... his decision to play for us...will benefit us in no small way... just hope he think well and opt for the super eagles... because the lad is just like another Dele Alli..
he gonna get game time in which ever nation he opt for
to be honest I really think we need a good and functional league...just like the RSA and Egyptian, Tunisian etc league to win a world cup... we can't expect European nations to develop players for us...just watch as the world cup draw close now... how some of our players we begin to sit on bench unnecessarily...
tbaba1234: No, we should keep working to improve the standard of the league. The LMC have done a good job in the last few years.
to be honest...the league has barely improved. a league where away team can barely grab a win and even if they do...their lives are in danger... a league... where non of the clubs can live up to expectations in the continental football unlike in the past where the likes of enyimba and heartland did so well.... a league where the players are massively owned their wages...
abeg...NFF really need to think outside the box to improve the league even if it involves taking the club off the state government and auction them to private companies and individuals and do so to the league...let it be run fully a private company..
goldfish80: Do you know what Nigeria stands to gain if a guy like Odeh is sold from Mfm to Monaco for €5M? Hypothetically speaking
You may not realise this but I will break it down for you.
Do you know that the Nff will get a percentage from that deal? Do you know Lagos state FA will equally get a cut from the deal because Mfm is domiciled in Lagos? Do you know the local club where Mfm got Odey from will equally get a cut from this deal?
The ripple effect this revenue generated will go a long way in exciting the system and producing many more exciting prospects from the grassroots.
Having established some of these facts, I would like to ask, do you think a European team will pay €5M for a player playing in Nigeria, who has no first team national team experience? When I talked about promoting local content, this is exactly what I mean.
Maybe if you're watching football as a spectator what I said wouldn't mean much to you but if you're at the administrative level, you will understand very well what message am passing across.
Bro...they will siphon these money... I have seen clubs which made transfer of players abroad ..go bankrupt the following season can't even pay players.... BJ football club made money from the sale of Isaac success but few season after could not finance the team transportation to kogi from Benin... abeg leave this matter corruption in Nigeria football stinks
Nigerian Midfield jewel Alex Iwobi has been dropped from the Arsenal 1st team and will not be in the squad to face crystal palace according to various reports in England The 20 year old has struggled for form during the Gunners’ slump in recent months and had been severely criticized by fans and pundits alike for his below per performances readThe Nigerian youngster has instead been sent to the U23 squad with whom he featured for in a 5-2 win at Reading this afternoon.
The Nigerian International had become a regular in the Arsenal 1st team and featured in every Premier League game he has been fit for this season but remained on the bench for Wednesday’s 3-0 win over West Ham and has recently struggled for game timeHis place in the 1st team is understood to have been taking up by Francis Coquelin.
Iwobis slump in form had also extended to the National team and he struggled in the friendly game against Senegal
Bro don't u think this is the handwork of the English FA. you have forgotten the words of one of this English football chiefs recently... on how they're going to apply measures to curb the loose of talents who grew up in the academics... forget it .... arsene Wenger rate this lad highly... I bet external forces are involved
just recently he made that statement... two of Nigeria born players (Tammy and lookman) have turned down Nigeria and commit to England....
daveP: everybody easy now. seems trump has inspired us to throw icbms today. o pari

TheGoodJoe: I agree with you. I remember once when they attacked Eagle Cement fans. I think this was in the late nineties. Destroyed their boss and the players ran for their lives. It was a terrible time for Nigerian football back then.
Kano Pillars fans are terrible.
I really think the LMC is not doing enough because these away loose mentality is really affecting our home based players
Joebie: I think Musa needs to move on. If he comes on and scores a brace in this game then maybe I will have a rethink. he already had a couple goals this season. I personally don't think the premier league is suited for him. Having speed is not the only criteria. Raneiri learned this the hard way.
exactly... technically he has so much to learn. I knew for sure...the move to EPL was a wrong move...because he only rely on his pace..and nothing else... well I wish he could head back to Russia
BascoVanVeli: To be honest I am shocked. Kano fans have been some of the best in Nigeria but we have to admit that every human is capable of a moment of utter madness. I am in support of a stadium ban and more measures put in place to protect every stadium not just Kano. We need to train our police specifically for this kind of issue.
kano fans for where... how do u think kano pillars maintain 10 years unbeaten record if not with fans threat kano pillars match made me quit watching NPFL matches... abeg rest that one abeg....their fans believe they must win always once it is being played in sank abacha stadium
BascoVanVeli: Yea the sad part was the violent aftermath. The team and referee where under attack after the game.
and Sir u said the league has improved. sorry to say this the league is in shabbles...psychologically the players can't make a good SE team... reason because of this away loose mentality and home win mentality.... rarely do they win their away chan qualifiers...
sometimes I wish we could have a league as developed as the Tunisian or RSA league...with that kind of league....we will win the world cup wit little stress
fortune1968: You never really have experience wt women .Almost all of them are very bad .Its the Grace of God . Many more men would have commuted murder ,killing their wives ,including myself .I have just learnt to remain absolutely silent and walk away many times .
I got to know of this recently.... you wrote the truth... God just help us
Mosa1982: Harmless comment my foot!Your comment does not make sense.It is your type that sees women as someone below them and that is what breeds violence in many marriages.
Dear most of these violence could have been avoided if men...learn to be tolerant and women learn how to talk properly...some women can talk trash....words that are provocative. imagine a wife threatening to slap her husband and what does she expect in return.....
priceaction: Hope u are not like her. She didn't do well, the two of them are very wrong and stupid. You don't know how provocative some women can be. I have seen worse, yes, some men can be abusive but most of the time ,the women are provocative. I boarded a bus many years ago going to lekki and there was a lady in the bus fighting the conductor because he gv her bad #10 change. When she got to her bus stop around sharaton, she insisted that she would collect her clean change. Held the conductor by cloth, and that one insisting that he didn't hv another one. What happened next was that a military officer sitting at the edge of the bus brought #10 from his pocket ,gave the lady.she collected it , and next thing she did was to pack some dry sand on the floor, in order to throw at the conductor. The guy dogged the sand and the sand went straight to the eyes of the officer including the rest of us. No apology or such. That day was how I know how military can beat someone mercilessly. She got beating of her life that it created a lot of scene that those that didn't know happened really carried planks and sticks in other to attack the officer because he was attacking a woman. She lied that the man was trying to touch her breast and she asked why but got slapped. If iwas not there, i could also carry planks. That day i fear some of you, women.The guy had to call for reinforcement while he told us in the bus to drive off before we are attacked too. We had to leave the guy and the conductor and we zoomed off. Some women are dangerous than snake. And yet not remorseful. The best thing is for the men to look at them and over look their trouble most times by neglecting their rubbish. In this case, both of them loose and can lead to their brake ups which may not be good for the children. 2 wrongs never make aright. He will repair the car and it will affect the house up keep. That is more trouble for them. As she escaped outside, she should have gone to the nearest police station to handle that.
God bless u what u wrote is true.....
some women can be annoying with the way they talk. though I know some men are animal like...but some women goad a man too much...
edi287: He wanted to work in better conditions...nothing wrong with that. Not everyone has the patience of Keshi.
the guy was never serious... the few matches he handled except the Cameroon match was an eye sore.... he should not go near the eagles again...I beg him please
Benita27: You saw these signs from when you were dating her but ignored them just because you loved her and went on to marry her...Don't be stupid in love! A spouse who can't apologise for her wrongs even when she's aware she's wrong isn't worth keeping. Were you expecting a change?, from a doormat bf to a doormat husband.
did you read the OP post at all? your last sentence... falls out of point
komekn: Ademola Lookman has made his choice, I truly believe Nigeria should not bevan option but a choice.
I hope it goes well with him. Now we can look at those who want to play for thier Fatherland. We still have to raise the Brand Green Eagles higher and make it a high aspiration and thing of great pride.
Now the NFF have to stop buying into the hype and do thier own research and discovery. Do not wait for England to discover talent for you before you can recognise it. Not all premier players are good enough for the Eagles.
In this regard Ademola is not as good as Aluko by a huge margin younger yes, better capital No. Ademola is not in my opinion better than Onyedinma and he is a class act. If not for football politics he should be playing at a top premiership team.
I am not impressed by Chuba Akpom he is simply not good enough as a striker.
Anichebe on his day is completely unplayable he should be in the mix.
Of course all eyes are on Oghene - Tega, with England promising all kinds of endorsement as a spin off for playing for England.
I still remember one bright osayi...of Blackpool I think...who pledged his allegiance to the SE.
hope rohr get to know of him... please do you really mean all you wrote about Tammy?

TheSuperNerd: Well.... like I have always said.... we cannot get everyone... and not all can even play for us. The NFF and Coach Rohr did their best. So let it be known it was he who said No to us. We wish Lookman the best. He has a bright future in the game. He has made his choice...... Note: I also saw this story carried by ESPN..... well... that is it shaa.... .......................................................................................................
Everton Ademola Lookman Tells Gernot Rohr – I Want To Play For England Not Nigeria
Nigeria have been dealt a serious blow in their quest to lure Everton rising star Ademola Lookman to switch allegiance to the senior national team of Nigeria.
Coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr has succeeded in luring players of Nigerian descent born abroad to pledge their future to the Nigerian team but Lookman has turned down his approach.
While Ola Aina and Chuba Akpom have given their words to Rohr about representing Nigeria, Lookman who is also a youth international for England has confirmed his commitment to the Three Lions of England.
Lookman told Dan Ashworth, the FA’s director of elite development, that he wants to play for England despite interest from Nigeria.
He hopes to represent England at the U-21 European Championship, and also has high hopes that he will gate crash coach Gareth Southgate senior side before the World Cup 2018 in Russia.
komekn: Whatever his age is, he is clearly young, the MRI has checkmated the situation where we had men claiming to be boys.
I couldn't stop wondering in bewilderment Yakubu is supposedly 34 and he can't even run anymore. Again I still give him serious kudos for what he has achieved whatever his age may be.
The video below really says it's time to TOTALLY STOP before he completely disgraces himself and destroys his legacy. Maybe he still believes his football age I do not know.
harley88: She was prolly forming hard to get before......she has entered 30 yes now, she's looking for husband!!!
that's their problem... sometimes I hardly pity them...many are searching for husband today because of the wrong choice they made in the past...not because men never came fr them
Earlier in the season when the debate about whether Iheanacho should leave City or stay, my opinion was let him face the competition and fight for shirt if he is the Super Star we say he is.
When Gabriel Jesus came and Iheanacho was excluded from match day squads i said the next couple of weeks will tell.
Gabriel Jesus got injured and Iheanacho is still being left out of match day squads consistently for a couple of weeks.
IMO mancity does not have plans for Kelechi Iheanacho. Jesus is out and Iheanacho is nt even on the bench so what now happens after the second coming of Jesus? Him fit no make bench for the 'Drills' sef.
I am worried.
Why?
2018 WC is 14months away. I have faith that we will qualify. And if Pep continues dealing with Iheanacho same way then that will spell doom for us. People are mentioning, Kayode, Odey, Adi, Ideye, Anichebe and co. All these are not Super star materials. None of them can pose a 5star performance even on their best day.
Iheanacho even on his off day on the pitch still manages to pose at least a 3 star performance. He is the only striker we have that has the potential to pose a 5star performance on his good day.
So we need a club that can help him and us attain that level befitting his potential. It is not every year we see player of such calibre being born in Nigeria and we allow Pep to continue drilling him as if he is searching for Oil in his head?
I dnt even mind any more if he goes to any middle table team. We need him to be playing as we build towards the world cup next year. We dnt even need him on the bench and he plays 5-10mins. We need him to be playing 90mins.
My verdict: Iheanacho must leave City this summer!
Icon4s: Just only bc of that Iheanacho's run against Zambia? At times some of us here talk as if we just started watching football in 2016.
Abeg let us see Fenan Adi and Aaron Samuel instead. We don try for Ideye reach. We have been patient with him since all these yrs. Let him come and go and go and continue chopping his pension in China.
Lol. .I expect u to say this... I know your disposition towards ideye...but that guy aside confederations cup... the guy has been OK for the super eagles.... well...I welcome your assertion that we should try others
komekn: I have known Tega for quite some time time he has done exceptionally well in the championship. But he isn't physically imposing like Anichebe.
I will prefer play ideye than anichebe.... ideye is one player that will allow whoever he is the AM or SS to have a free run upront and his work rate is very impressive.... perfectly used to the dynamics of Africa football
TheGoodJoe: I said a player needs to work hard on the training pitch to improve and the match time is to show the improvement.
please sir stop this thing... it is annoying the way you keep defending this coach....to the extent even sir Joseph once said..it's like you share same bed with pep...
it is crystal clear...that pep has no plans for nacho what's the essence of training so hard and still be out of the match day squad...so he should keep training hard to impress the difficult to please coach
you don't need to do all that to please a manager who believes in you...some persons just can't be pleased no matter how hard you try.....
nacho gets to this level he is all by hard work...the young man has fought tirelessly to get this level he never got it on a plate of gold.... pep is simply a selfish coach...if you don't want the young man in your team loan him out...
I will.blame rohr should this continue next season... because should he begin to bench nacho or not extending a call to him will make him and his father to begin to think that this situation really need to be looked into..
he must be smart to ask for a loan move during the summer...
TheSuperNerd: Imagine Jesse Lingard just signed a 100, 000 pounds a week contract with Man utd for four years.... Lingard oooo.... That average talent....
There is Everything right for you when you are English and a national team player of England in the English Premier League....
During the Euros... even some section of the English fans cracked a joke wishing Nacho was English to help them out with their striking problems as Alli, Kane, Sterling and Even Vardy all flopped at France Euro 2016.... lol
We know the truth... but nacho should just leave the pep-infested environment... it is so negative for him... nacho can take the positives he can take but he must move on for regular game time... a super talent like him is the dream of most modest clubs now... from there he can grow into the big super player he has always dreamt of becoming....
By the time guardiola finish drilling him,he will discover crude oil
ever since pep took over city I lost interest in their matches being that nacho won't get to play...
city was a team that perfectly suits nacho considering he his an attacking minded player I still believe pep is getting away with this maltreatment because nacho is not English player...he won't dare treat a 3 lions prospect that way
