Usor should have been called up instead of Yira Soor.

TheSuperNerd:
I am happy with the friendlies news.... meanwhile on Arthur Okonkwo and Nigeria...

“I know there have been stories in the press about Arthur and representing Nigeria but this has all come from unofficial sources so is not something we wish to speak publicly about at the moment.”

Do you think he needs more playing time or he should go?

Predator87:
Sor and Otele are 26 Yers old already and by 2030 they will be aging themselves. Bosnia had a 19 year old take a decisive PK for them vs Italy. We need to start integrating young players into the Super eagles now or we are toast. The next u17, U20 and Olympics are crucial for Nigeria but i wont be surprised if the NFF mess up yet again. We are going the way of Italy. Dey play.

Goke7:
If we were going to the World Cup the top teams would have come calling for friendlies. That’s the outcome for not qualifying!

TheSuperNerd:
Sleeping on who? Cape Verde? Folks that a weak Chile clapped 4-2. Folks that struggled against euro minnows, Finland. Watch what Spain and Uruguay do to them at the WC.

I dont even think Cape Verde can beat Saudi Arabia but time will tell as they play each other last in their group. If there is a round of 32 ticket at stake, I dont think Cape Verde survives.

UncleHaba22:
I feel like DR is better than Jamaica

One African team people are sleeping on is Cape Verde
Those people have convinced their Portuguese players to switch allegiance to cape Verde
Good players that plays week in week out in Europe

Spainever:
Ghana is playing Germany while Nigeria will be playing Jordan . This is shameful . Our football has deteriorated to the point of playing Iran and Jordan in a world cup year . NFF really dealt with our talented players like Lookman , Osihmen ,Bassey and co . I recalled years ago we played England, Germany and Netherlands before the world cup ,we even played Argentina. But today we are playing Jordan

PDPGuy:
BREAKING 🚨

mostob:

lbrichman2:

Omo

Anyway, Nwabali, Okoye and Uzoho are a decent group, if not elite elite

TheSuperNerd:
CIV demystified South Korea 4-0.

South Korea is in South Africa's WC Group.

zicky:
i don't think Lookman is getting hype he deserves here. When I rank SE players, I place Lookman same level with Osimhen with iwobi a little below.

TheSuperNerd:
Omo na wa ooo... Ralf Ragnick. Inevitable he says. Lol

elyte89:
A rumor suggests that the NFF is exploring an unlikely alternative route for the Super Eagles to qualify for the World Cup. The scenario estimated at around a 2% chance depends on teams like Italy, Denmark, and Turkey winning their playoffs to qualify directly, followed by Iran potentially withdrawing due to the ongoing war. In that case, it is speculated that FIFA could select the highest-ranked available team, possibly Nigeria, as a replacement, based on the assumption that there is no strict rule requiring a withdrawn team to be replaced by another from the same continent.


Yeh, who throw me stone 😩🥲🥲😢😢

TheSuperNerd:

SymphonyRad:
Galatasaray is one very useless team sha, yes he gets lots of fan love from the club but Osimhen is wasting his prime years there honestly.
