So Messi never forgets?

he is a slow poison

forgiveness:
Has Chukwueze won FiFA world cup medal?

yeah he won the under 17 medal...?
did mane and the names you mentioned to be proven world class players prior their signing for Liverpool won any of fifa world cup medals?

Odunayaw:
some monikers can't go a day without excreting one form of dust or the other

Lol...I am so surprised at forgiveness words...
they were proven world class players...

save for Sallah...those guys were not really known prior their signing for Liverpool.
but with the right philosophy, guidance and hard work...they've made it to the top.
a young player..recognized to be among the top 20 best young players in europe too 5 leagues...and here someone is trying to downplay his potentials and recognition just to promote a mediocre player like seyi ojo

godspeed:
Senegal just took apart the Colombians, how come South America has always been our nemesis at this competition?

hope France or Senegal help to remove Argentina.

Bro...please keep an eye on Italy...that team ehh. ..they dey play like old men

DrLikita12:
Unfortunately.
They can come back stronger.

I was thinking of going back to the Npfl because of them...but now...i will have to shelve the plan....

so unfortunate...my darling insurance.
but wait...can't those clubs that have been in NPFl for years now...with no progress...allow insurance and other clubs stay...let's see what they can do within the space of time....
so annoying clubs are just there filling space...with no national and continental progress

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that there is no going back on the decision of Arsenal starlet Joseph Olowu to commit his international future to Nigeria over England, where he was raised.

The central defender has purchased a flight ticket and will be heading to Poland on Wednesday, May 29, a day before the Flying Eagles face off with Ukraine in their final Group D fixture at the ongoing FIFA U20 World Cup.

Olowu will be accompanied on the trip by his father and they plan to hold talks with representatives of the Nigeria Football Federation and Nigeria U20s coaching staff led by Paul Aigbogun.

The Hale End Academy product will also introduce himself to the Flying Eagles players and watch them take on Ukraine in Bielsko-Biała.

An injury denied Olowu a place in the Flying Eagles squad to Poland and he could be considered for the Olympic Team in the future.

Tom Dele-Bashiru (Manchester City), Nnamdi Ofoborh (Bournemouth) and Chinonso Emeka (Brook House FC) are the English-based players in the Flying Eagles 21-man squad.

so good to read this...
I was discussing with my friend yesterday as regard Dele-Bashiru goal in the match against Qatar...he told me he was not surprised considering the academy he plays for....
it so much pains me we have no players from Chelsea and arsenal in this team....
especially arsenal players known for their passing ability and neat plays....
hopefully we get this guy,Ameachi and urakwe in Chelsea....
after all England 3Lions cannot absolve them all....

nelszx:
If Liverpool wins the UCL and Netherlands get to play the Euro league finals, Virgi Van Djik will win the Ballon d'Or not Messi

I will be so happy...
I want anyone to win the award except messi.....

currently hoping the copa America don't beat to Argentina favour.

*please no messi fan should quote me pls...i just wanna have some rest

DrLikita12:
I don't think they plan to repeat it.
They did it so the season could be over in time for AFCON.

so insurance will be relegated...?
that's very unfair...they have been in the relegation for too long...and now they just can't play and enjoy the NPFL in peace

darkelf:
So you thought we could win before with the kinda coach we have? Very laughable

Lol...Aigbogun is anywhere belly face coach...
we should just enjoy the tournament while it last...
hopefully we get to the Qfinals

I think FIFA needs to review their allocation of slots per continent/Confederation in the U20 WC. How can Africa and North America produce same number of countries? (Four). What are Honduras and Panama doing in the U20 WC when countries like Ghana, Cameroon, Egypt, Guinea could not make it. As far as football is concerned only USA and Mexico are serious football nations in that Region.

Look also at Oceania, how can they have two? (New Zealand and Tahiti) What is Tahiti doing in a world cup?


Considering the number of serious footballing nations in Africa we need at least two more slots. At this age level we are almost at par with Europe with respect to number of footballing countries and performance at this age level FIFA should take off one slot from Oceania and One from North&Central America and give to Africa jare.

the biggest fraud...is the under 17 world cup..despite Africa bossing the competition since it's existence...
we still have just 4 slots

Earthquake3:
Argentine team is Rubbish, South Africa matched them for long periods with 10 men

let us play this Argentina first...before you know if they are rubbish...
I just don't know why I so much fear Argentina team...under20,23 and men's national team...

I fear them with passion..because they always beat us

Earthquake3:
The Argentine team was not impressive, they only capitalized on the defensive disorganization of SA after the red card

Give them an organized team like France they won't score all game

that France team is any team's nightmare...
I Won't want us play them for now....

let's avoid them....was surprised to see newzealand play good football...
they even won 5 nil...
and the other team that won Norway..I think Uruguay...they play a very swift counter and tend to be more compact.

those guys nor be 20 years ooo with the way they play

andrew444:
I am yet to read what you wrote but as far as you or anybody quoted komekn I will click like .

only God knows why komekn visits this thread...
probably he comes here to spy on us and to promote some of his borough players...
unfortunately for him...the borough players always on Rohr radar are not his boys....

sorry to say this....I think he hates to see our players progress...
watch how he will repeat same...when we discuss about oshimen potential move etc...always look for a way to belittle these boys

Earthquake3:
Argentine team is Rubbish, South Africa matched them for long periods with 10 men

that's their first match....
their finishing yesterday was top notch.

Danielnino00:
Let me shock you small...there are many countries worse than Nigeria ...

If you don't believe me,I'm willing to pay for your flight ticket so u can relocate to Sudan or DR Congo

tell me...how many are this nation's...compare to the ones better than Nigeria?

Nigeria future is more bleak and full of risks compare to those countries....
a country of over 200m people with no population control, no basic amenities, high rate of unemployment, corrupt government officials, terrorism etc...

Earthquake3:
This France U20 can beat some senior teams

Chai see balling

they're so matured...
you know France always stealing players from all their former colonies...
likewise the Argentine team yesterday...so professional...
I fear for Nigeria in this tournament oooo.

fabyom:
I am a Nigerian. I am proud of it.
I was born here, it was in Nigeria my mother thought me that a good name is better than silver and gold.
God lives in Nigeria.
It was this God that brought me out from no where to lead presentations in different parts of the United states.
If you must know, being a Nigerian gave the opportunities I never could have imagined in my life.
My Nigeria stands on the rock of ages and it shall not be moved.
Pray for the peace of Nigeria may those who love you PROSPER.
I pray for you my Nigeria!

you're making me feel bad.
you see despite all this our religious practices...corruption and evil amongst Nigerians and her leaders...stick high heavens....
very soon there will be population explosion in this country. millions currently have no jobs...presently we are hearing of bandit and terrorism operations in the northern Nigeria...this are mainly folks recruited from the millions of almajiri kids in the northern streets...

in the south...had it been not for abroad... Nigerians that would have been jobless would have been too much and you know what unemployment transcend too...HIGH CRIME RATE..

we really need to do something about this country if we truly care and not just to start praying.

here in Abuja civil servants will steal to buy cars and build houses in places like maitama and still go to church to give thanksgiving...likewise the Muslims too...

the youths too...nearly 5/10 youths in Niger delta especially Benin and delta are into internet fraud....

safarigirl:
Chinonso is 19 years old, you can't tell me otherwise

those guys are partly Europeans na.
they were born abroad...unlike oremade and co

M7even:
.... We are all in it... We dey together

just asked my cousin who is based in Europe.....the possibility of Europeans doing age cheating.

he said it is not possible at all...that himself his age details is on the central system and it can't be altered.
but not same with Nigerians and south Americans.

Icon4s:
Is this how we are going to roll through out this tournament?

Rather than analysing games we are busy looking out for players who we think are age cheats. This whole thing is getting boring abeg.

I have choosed to enjoy the tournament.
just that don't say those oremade and co are just 20 years old...

you can call them under 20 team...but outrightly saying any of them is 20,19 years old will always make us argue this things here....
no one doubted manu garba under 20 team that much...but this one is so glaring

fabyom:
So you believe other nations but you don't have trust in yours loll.
Someone also said that Mali team is quite young.
I dey laugh in 3D.
All African teams and some South American teams are cheat!

if every other nations were like Nigeria....the world would have come to an end long ago...

each time I think about Nigeria's future...I feel so sad.
I need no one to convince me that the devil lives in Nigeria....

please anything is possible with Nigerians.... and in Nigeria.

Icon4s:
Oya see dem.

Age cheat hunters

c'mon oga icon...forget their skin colours..
those guys are south Americans they cheat too..though they often omit 1-3 years from their age...unlike west Africans that do remove 3-8 years.

you know this things na

andrew444:
Agreed about Tunisia

Me dey go look beauty ,thou Egypt dey get small wahala at times

Lol...I know someone who have been to Tunisia... the nationals are not that hostile like in RSA...

even Senegal self...look a bit more developed than Nigeria...considering the fact that Senegal was the main residential and administrative citadel during the French colonization of west Africa countries....

a friend of mine who did masters there...told me lot of good things about Senegal.... especially Dakar.

Earthquake3:
The South African coach went to Johann Cruyff school of football

That's what a coach should be

when we say most Nigeria coaches have no ambition...many folks will come for our heads...
someone like siasia should be upgrading his coaching skills by now... understudying coaches like pep or going for more robust coaching courses..
but No...
they rather die waiting for the super eagles job which they often get base on sentiments.

I am tired of Nigeria coaches ooo...
that's why I am keeping an eye on that enyimba coach...dude is well exposed too......

andrew444:
You are not just saying but you are making a lot of sense

I think the best country in Africa are SA and Egypt

yeah you're right...but you know the Arab blood in the latter...sometimes militate against their progress...even though they are the major power amongst the Arab nations...
Tunisia is a little bit better and more exposed than Egypt... it's like they have a secular system in place unlike Egypt more tinted towards an Islamic state...not ISIS please...

ChrisKels:
SA with truly young players. Loving their line up, lets see how they perform sha.

Taking group pictures now

All eyes on Foster, the Monaco youngster

SA is like a European country in Africa...
the whites in that country makes things different...considering that have ancestral ties with England and the dutch...

had it been we have such percentage of white folks may be things would have been different..
#just sayinh

ChrisKels:
Are these Portuguese players I am seeing really U20?

those guys are Europeans moreover you can see from their decision making to be truly under 20.....

Starboytwo:
you and I know what made those pitches and other infastructure in Nigeria to decay and it's certainly not due to "internet frauds"... Without digressing further....dem go catch tire...

it is good they're tackling it..

all over Benin many youths now see it as hurstle. the past EFCC chairmen/woman especially farida and lamorde where almost useless not to indulge in curbing it.

mind you..if you're into a legit business that has to do with international trading partners you will understand better what internet fraud have done to Nigeria reputation world wide..

no one seems to trust us any more... you can't relate with foreign firms and individuals without fear of them getting doped.

Icon4s:
I saw even the Ijebu-Ode stadium and was like

Our maintenance culture is ZERO!

Egbon maintenance culture gini?
someone do steal the money meant for the maintenance....
someone somewhere already citing with his gangs to steal this money as soon as provisions are made for them.

corruption is gradually killing this country..
thank God for the current EFCC management that are fighting the scourge...especially internet fraud.

Icon4s:
Guinea too are still trying. They have participated in most of the recent U17 WCs, post MRI introduction. Asides Ghana, Brazil and Argentina too have also been greatly affected. It has even helped Nigeria the more, meaning we didn't really need to cheat in the first place.

exactly...
laziness and greed mostly on the part of the coaches and officials do make us cheat..
same with this under 20 tourney...
we don't need any oldies to help us win...
go round the country and pick the best players.... within the age range..
assemble them... later call up some foreign born players with in same age willing to play for us to create a large pool of players to choose from.

Nigeria is so blessed with human resources..a country of over 200M just residing in Nigeria alone... let alone other Nigerians in the diaspora...

Nigerians anywhere be it in the US and Europe do have a soft spot for this country...

it is just so unfortunate...

AntiWailer:
They pick yahoo , problem

Pick politician witch hunt

Enter MTN , let them mind their business


What exactly is their business ?

You guys have conditioned with that short mind not to see anything good about the country.

When I see comments from 'smart' people and leaders of tomorrow, I know fully well that Nigeria is hopeless.

Not because of the idiots at the helm of affairs now , but the M0r0ns that will likely take over in the future.

Don't mind them...
very few of them know what efcc stand for...
economic financial and other related crimes commission and they have the authority unlike ICPC to venture into both shading/corrupt dealings of both public and private companies....

so the EFCC is on point...
I think the efcc have been so active lately unlike the times of LAMORDE AND FARIDA those two almost crippled the agency especially the former

Danielnino00:
People from northern Nigeria can match those Malian and Senegalese for height I'm sure...

yeah some Hausa fulanis...
but those guys are tall...
I remember seeing a Senegalese too...the boy was just too tall for his age...

the only Nigerians I have seen that tall...
where two NBA players.... I saw last year.
they claimed they play for a college like that which I have forgotten and they were ibos...
so tall too...

it's like Americans do inject some stuffs in those NBA players Genetic make up...to grow that tall.
nearly all NBA players are tall....
