Fifa suspending Russia is just so stupid of them ,I wonder if Russia footballers are at fault or supporting what’s happening

Same fifa that couldn’t suspend USA ,ISREAL

This is unfair to the players and coaching staff

Fifa uefa are so stupid and useless

After they will open their dirty mouths and say they don’t mix sport with politics

Odunayaw:
You are tiring. Sometimes I think you purposely switch off your mind when you want to argue so you can... win? The argument

In this particular match, I reiterate, "attacking such space" as you want would have been an unnecessary move that may have not produced any goal

charlesemeka85:
when jay jay moved to Bolton he was close to 30

Alladyce made the move immediately he learnt jay jay is out of contract with psg waiting for offer and inorder to play in the epl he accepted immediately by assuring Sam that he will drive to England the next day to sign for the epl newcomers then

He had other offers but saw the opportunity as his last chance to play at the epl then which prompted him to take a massive pay cut which is around 40k a week then if am correct

charlesemeka85:
baba the amount quoted their na me out am?

Then the top teams in ligue 1 were

Marseille
Auxerre
Nantes
Monaco
Psg
Borduex

TheGoodJoe:

Do you think the ball is totally off the green area of the arm? Before you pay us.

I did not hear your voice when they gave us a penalty for this tackle on Messi.

charlesemeka85:
Till date jay jay holds the record of most successful dribbles in a World Cup game (against Italy in US 94)

Him being forced out of contract at psg then was because the French side plan to reduce their wage expenditure of which jay jay was among the big earners then at the Paris based side. As of then jay jay was racking in 80,000 pounds weekly. He was offered a new deal with a reduction on his wages which he declined and both party decided to wait for his 4 year deal to run out for him to leave for free

Also The club management came up with the plan to force him out from the club not because of his poor performances but for the reason he was always out on international matches with the Nigerian national team which made him skip matches

Attracting such honor as the most expensive African player then wasn’t an east feat because one but be too good and needed for a certain team to pay big to bring him on board. Pepe was outstanding at Lille which prompted Arsenal to splash the cash on Lille just to lure the Ivorian. Same was osimehn when he left Lille for Naples

Abeg I hold nothing against nwakaeme but never you bring him n jay master jay in a conversation let alone comparison

In the history of epl and French football you can’t mention the best ever playmakers that graced the leagues with their mesmerizing skill set without listing jay jay

Ex German striker Gomes said jay jay’s goal against Oliver Kahn made him to choose football as a career. He said after seeing the goal on tv he automatically feel in love with football and wanted to make a career out of it

Mujtahida:
Nwakaeme not great abeg whether in Europe or anywhere. He's just regular as regular can be.

mostob:
The ball hit him on his elbow joint ...it was a clear foul sir.

TheGoodJoe:

You guys are angry that VAR did not rob Manchester City. It is clear as daylight. No conclusive evidence for Handball and if it was handball, then VAR would visit Richarlison being offside. And the penalty will not stand

Finito.

Joebie:
Poor angle on your picture. We saw various angles.
The coach suppose go look am to verify.. na partia!!!

andrewbaba44:
He will get game time Soon

Abi Na Dennis and sarr e wan bench ?

zuchyblink:
what are we talking about if he is not performing? The guy is performing and he is making headlines week in week out in Turkey. Your narratives are always bias and fallacious. If you are good you are good. The present Nwakaeme is good and deserves a call up. From your points players that did not play in Europe top leagues were not good enough but they outperformed our top players in Europe. Rainford Kalaba outscored Okocha in International football,Hossam Hassan,Ahmed Hassan,Weal Gomaa,Gedo, Aboutrika,Hosni all did better than most of our top players that played in Europe. If you are good you are good. Rating players according to the league they play is bias and fallacious

TheSuperNerd:
He would be a free agent in just a few months. He doesn't have much rep value wise due to his struggles and club football instability before he began picking up the pieces with Huesca and Alcorcón so ofcos, clubs have a right to bargain but the interest is legit and reported by Spanish sources themselves. So whether you lots in here believe it or not is not my problem.

You watched him at the AFCON and if you still don't see why some clubs would actually be interested then I cannot help the myopia expressed by anyone especially the consistent but Irrelevant Anti-Nwakali cry babies.

Subzero47:
Remember when Bayern wanted to buy Onyekuru

TheSuperNerd:
The Truth about the Kelechi Nwakali Situation as reported by Football Espana. I called this early on another football platform with respect to the major reason being Nwakali's refusal to sign a new contract with Huesca. Huesca are just being mischievous as I expected them to be Post-Afcon. Yet the Anti-Nwakali cry babies continue to mock the lad as if this is his fault. Typical.



Nigerian international Kelechi Nwakali in the midst of dispute with Huesca
By Alan Feehely


Nigerian international Kelechi Nwakali is in the midst of a dispute with his club, Huesca, after returning home late from the African Cup of Nations through illness as per Football Espana’s sources.

The 23-year-old midfielder joined the Spanish club back in 2019 from Arsenal, whom he had joined in 2016 from the Diamond Football Academy back home in Nigeria. He’s since made 33 appearances for Huesca and also spent time on loan at Alcorcon.

Kelechi missed Nigeria’s final game of the African Cup of Nations through illness and was too ill to fly home to Spain. The doctor that treated him advised him not to fly and to keep testing until his symptoms cleared.

Kelechi notified Huesca about this.

On deadline day of the January window Ruben Garcia, Huesca’s sporting director, tried to send Kelechi out on loan for a fee of €80k and said he wouldn’t pay the player if he didn’t find a new club.
No club was willing to pay the loan fee Huesca demanded, despite interest from second-tier clubs in both Spain and England.

Kelechi has since returned to Spain and Huesca have opened up disciplinary proceedings against him, suspending him indefinitely and not allowing him to come to the training ground despite the fact he provided a doctor’s note explaining his lateness.

Kelechi was offered a renewal at the beginning of this season but decided against accepting due to his poor relationship with the powers-that-be at the club. Huesca, however, were keen for him to renew and now want to sack him to avoid paying him for the rest of the season. He’s currently not being played by them.

The Spanish Players’ Union AFE is now involved in the case and they’ve accused Huesca of committing procedural breaches in the opening up of the case against Kelechi. They claim the club have no grounds to sack him and their behaviour constitutes gross misconduct and discrimination against the player.

Kelechi is the subject of interest from several La Liga sides including Espanyol, Granada, Rayo Vallecano, Mallorca, Osasuna, Elche, Deportivo Alaves and Getafe. He’s also being monitored by several clubs in the Premier League and the Championship.

Komekn once gave us assurance that Eze would play for us after he got his EPL contracted signed...Which big money move is coming for him, given that he hasn't proven anything exceptional yet?

I really blame Rohr for this Eze situation..After the world cup, it was clear that we needed reinforcement in the midfield with Iwobi and Mikel being the only available creative midfielders we had (the experiment with Etebo failed). But somehow, Rohr kept ingnoring Eze and calling up the regular midfield of Mikel, Ndidi,Etebo, Ogu and Iwobi

Subzero47:
You are now putting words into Pinnick's mouth

Kog45:
Sir,Mikel came to Rio Olympics cos it was cleared he was not in Conte plan...forget media talks.It was cleared to Siasia and Mikel

TheGoodJoe:

Other teams can belittle themselves. That means nothing to me. We have loads of players to fight and do well. We should only seek those with passion to play for us. It is meaningless if the players do not have the passion to play for us.

I repeat, in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, Argentina and Brazil had far better players than us. Great talents from that later went to some of the best clubs in the world. With passion and dedication, we won that competition. Football is not only about talents. With teamwork, passion and dedication, we can move mountains.

If these guys are too big, let them go.

TheGoodJoe:

That should stop. We should have a policy that they reach out to us. We should focus more on youth development. We can raise a mean squad if we channel much effort to keep raising high-grade players from the youth level. We raised Ndidi, Iheanacho, Osimhen, Omeruo, Awoniyi, Isaac Success, Chidera Ejuke, etc from the youth grade system. If we channel funds and groom our coaches to make our scouting and development at this level proper, we can keep raising quality players.

Coupled with any foreign-born with the passion to reach out t o us.

As for any homegrown player that wants to focus on his career, we should give him full support by allowing him to focus on his club footie.

Our focus should lie on those that want to play for us. Whether foreign, or home grown.

We need the likes of Osimhen that was ready to defy odds with his club to play for us. Mikel went against Conte to join the Olympic teams. These are players with passion.

Enough of all these red carpet treatment.

Dennis didn’t say no, the NFF did not meet his deadline invitations

JohnBullMySon:
.

World cup is in December and not April. We have an entire AFCON qualifier to play between that. So stop making it sound like he's just coming to play World Cup.

mostob:
He will...with a two page thesis though, totally deviating from the main point.
