Bruno Onyemeachi subbed in on 52mins for his first UCL appearance in 25/26.

El Kaabi scored for Olympiacos. VAR spots a handball against Barca, Cancels the goal and still gifts Olympiacos a chance to score that goal again but this time from the spot. El Kaabi steps up and scores. 2-1.

ended up stinking the whole place, we need to drop this guy from the super eagles, imagine qualifying for the World Cup and we start this guy against France, Dembele go do am weytin no good

Cocony:
1)Enyeama was at Enyimba, yes a team that topped and was topping a competitive Nigerian League at the time for which the South African league paled in comparison then on the Continental front.

this isn’t exactly true, South African league was not very good then but it wasn’t exactly inferior to ours, by 2002 Orlando pirates already won the CAF champions league while we were yet to have any

BankyGee:
Maduka Okoye is BAAAAACCCCKKKK! 🔥

My goalie! 🧤🇳🇬
In the starting lineup for Udinese!

I said it here, I expect him back once his ban is over the guy who replaced him na gbef player

Truidstarr:
Morocco's only plan is to reap where they did not sow. Convince Foreign Born players to play for them from age grade to National team level.

corruption is the reason why we’ve not taken this path, there are plenty players with Nigerian ancestry scattered across Europe and we couldn’t take even 1 to the last U-20 Afcon but we instead went with Akinyele,Bamaiyi and other carpenters. We know for example an Arsenal/Chelsea academy player will likely not pay money to be a part of the squad

chrisooblog:
Adingra that cooked Aina last year.

so?

9JAMac10:
Why is this remo stars coach even a part of the Nigerian technical staff?

tribalism abi how una dey take talk am

CapitalCee:
Guassand, Amad Diallo and Adingra are not mid bro.

the first guy is struggling at Villa, the second one is ok not great while the last guy is just there, Brighton offloaded him to sunderland where he’s not exactly pulling up trees

The NFF and sport ministry mean business

CapitalCee:
Even Evan Ndicka sef na Ivory coast.

Their Attack of Amad Diallo, Evan Guassend of Villa, Adingra and Sabastine Haller is solid. But yeah for example Nigeria has a better attack than them.
Midfield I will give it to Senagal, Canerooon too has some mad midfield combo of Frank Zambo Anguisa and Carlos Baleba

this their attack is very very mid

Papi85:
super eagles are winning next afcon

the only reason I won’t argue against this is because we are a tournament team

semid4lyfe:
I will never be in support of dual nationality players crashing the party only when its convenient for them to do so. It's opportunistic, parasitic and could spoil team chemistry and cause disunity in the squad.

I recall this same dude was asked about playing for Nigeria 2 years ago, and he said, (I paraphrase) "at the moment I'm focused on playing for England but lets see what the future holds which is a subtle way to turn us down.

The guy no even better pass Iwobi for AM. Iwobi is a better orchestrator and passer. The issue with Iwobi is wrong deployment, midfield partnerships and formation by our National team coaches which negatively impacts on his output.

We can do without him. Between Alex Iwobi, Frank Onyeka, Wilfred Ndidi, Fisayo Dele Bashiru, Chrisantus Uche, Ebenezer Akinsanmiro, Alhassan Yusuf, Anthony Dennis and even Samuel Chukwueze we have enough players to cover in midfield.

Any dual national who wants to play for Nigeria should do like Ashleigh Plumptre, Alex Iwobi, Cyriel Dessers, Ademola Lookman, William Troost-Ekong etc and come out to declare their interest with their full chest, not use Nigeria as Plan B.

If they didn't declare interest and commitment when the work was being done, they shouldn't benefit from it by going to the world cup.

Make hin wait until after the world cup when the next AFCON qualifiers will begin, no be now.

I hope you know Lookman once turned us down? He only agreed to join ahead of 2022 WC

CapitalCee:
And sporting wont even accept €45m for him. Minimum €60m, the guy is legit one of the best CBs in Europe. He is a baller.

if he’s as good as most people say he won’t be in sporting

lloydtruth:

TribaIism and nep0tism don finish this country football kpatakpata.

🤦🏿 as how?

Elock1:
Person way dem dey preserve for champions League league make e tear person net

they bought him for champions league, with or without Osimhen league no be problem

Per sofa score Orban had a poor game with a rating of 5.9, was yanked off after 67mins, he missed 2 big chances

SymphonyRad:
Omo this Lesley Ugochukwu lad is a baller, why haven't NFF even tried to talk to him about playing for Nigeria?

will be good to have him but I don’t think he’ll give us something we don’t have already, he’s just another shin kicker

Boniface starts for Bremen

Akor and Ejuke both on the bench as host Sevilla are a goal up against Mallorca

Taiwo have started well, he has been a menace to Chelsea’s defense

Taiwo gets a rare start against Chelsea

BankyGee:
After the latest Transfermarkt update for the Premier League, Calvin Bassey got a +€3M rise that saw him hit €28M!


🥉 Third most expensive centre-back in Africa 🌍

who are the those ahead of him?

Joebie:
"Fred" is a placeholder for Benjamin Frederick.

Two ways we can start in November. I wouldn't play Simon and Lookman at the same time.

I prefer option B, forget about Agu for now, his club said it’s a long term injury

ChrisKels:
This one is asking that Ghana gives him a chance to join their team to USA, but this was his response when Ghana called him in 2022.

This is the kind of humiliation some people want us to subject ourselves to because of some craps that have been rejected by England and co.

niccaz will have 1 or 2 decent season of football then they’ll think they are the next zidane, smh

Ragingthunder:
Star ⭐⭐⭐

it’s a different level of gravy when your teammates start praising you

Calvin Bassey is the only Super Eagles player to have played all 10 FIFA World Cup qualifier matches with maximum minutes — 900.

Papi85:
Like someone said here few nights ago, Boniface is just happy that he escaped poverty and to me it’s the perfect explanation of his attitude and shenanigans towards the national team

He lacks that hunger and ambition to function even as a perfect deputy to Osimhen.

I think most Nigeria born players are like that, nothing concern them with glory as long as they’ve escaped poverty they are ok.

minfelix:
Also note that Semi Ajayi is on 2yellow cards now(Vs Lesotho and Vs Benin), plss guys who can fill in for him agains Gabon, i no wan see Ekong for that starting 11 ooo😭

Osayi should be back that means Benjamin will partner Bassey at the back

TheSuperNerd:
I already know my choice and the tactical reasons why. 😉

But who do you think is winning this battle of the Elite Ballers?

Haaland to snatch a late victory for team B

TheSuperNerd:
FT. Argentina 1-0 Colombia. Just as it was in the South Anerican Qualifiers. 1-0 and 1-1.

Argentina vs Morocco final, midnight of sunday into Early monday hrs (Naija Time).

were you still able to watch on FIFA+? It stopped showing in my location

I'm happy seeing Olakunle Olusegun on the field yesterday and good to see two ABS boys in the team.... Benjamin Frederick and Olakunle Olusegun never knew it would be so soon,playing for eagles....former Senate President Bukola Saraki owner of ABS paid tribute to the two players for their outstanding performance.

Chelle got the ball and soon to see young players like Akinsanmiro,Eletu making the team.

abeg who discovered Benjamin? ABS or Moses Simon?

Cocony:
Same way a Jerome Akor Adams might not have been valued when Montpellier were drowning but he was an outstanding performer.
I make a case for Aniagboso to be recalled. He played same tournament with Benjamin Frederick who has respectedly taken his chance to become a starter.

this Aniagboso wasn’t great at U-20, for now he can continue to grow, no need to rush him
