Hassan Sas with the shinny head abi? He was also one of their top players...I rooted for them in that tourney but they fell short (I have a thing for underdogs)...

The team I hated was Korea, those guys cheated their way all the way...

Brazil though were deserving champions...

Gbam!! That's him.
I was silently supporting them to go far and also Senegal too. My support for Turkey stopped when dey did that heartbreaking golden goal against Senegal. E pain me sha

As for Korea, na FIFA just want make dem go far cos their cheating was damn so obvious. Blatant cheating against Italy and Spain. What they(South Korea) should be grateful for say dem no carry dat their cheating meet England, else by now, England propaganda fit make FIFA ban Korea sef

Las las, na jaguda Germany S.Korea meet

daveP:
True too. Its baffling, the high confidence in the kids. I think they trust their spirit and passion, which is lacking around the Emirates for a while now. Hopefully, a big buy lands to distract the fanbase away from the obvious. A good way to start.

I just hope that big buy is a good creative force sha.
Since I heard Odegaard is available, mk dem just drop 30-40m for am be that.

Worst part is that good Am dey market, but our club just dey dull.

FirstbornWds:
Them day contemplate to sell their stadium sef.. Make una kululma buy am, move come Spain. Una fit consider drunk Perez too sha, at least he go initiate better buys. Just say una fit hear say he call Saka monkey in years to come.

.
With that him mouth wey dey run like tap.
Well, I'll tell the appropriate authorities above about this juicy offer. But then, it still didn't guarantee anything sef. Cos those my people Dem fit ask weda top 4 dey available, say dem fit prefer am pass UCL trophy

TheLequte:
I still remember Luiz clutching Neymar’s jersey and singing the national anthem with too much passion.

He didn’t know Germany was going to spell their name and add full stop.

It was a show of shame.

Lol... If you see how myself and my brother (with my friends also) were very very angry when Brazil did that bolded eh...
We were even confused weda neymar had died or weda he entered Coma for dem to do that nonsense.

I guess it angered Germany too, so dem kukuma spell Brazil, den drop one more goal for Neymar solidarity

Trevor012:
I really really want Grealish here. I wish we can offer Bruno plus 10million to Aston villa for Grealish.

Mehn!!!... This your Bruno hate sha

Azurevermillion:
Is that sarcasm?

Lol... Isn't it memorable??

patrickmuf:
Basturk was excellent, he was one of my fav back then...Yildray Basturk...

Yea... Basturk was very good (even scoring 2 goals I think)

But in that team, I just developed a personal like for Hassan Sas with the way he pushed that attack for Turkey. He was my best player in that Turkish team, cos prior to that, I never really knew much Turkish players that much

TheLequte:
It was a disgrace. E for pay them make dem no qualify for semi sef.

As if you know.
Dem just go disgrace their country people in front of their house join

Conceded 10goals in the last 2 games scoring just 1.

A big disgrace to dem Brazil of old

TheLequte:
Yeah. Hassan Sas.

What about that Basturk guy? They were pretty peeved when the final whistle sounded the second time they met. They went toe to toe with Brazil and lost by margins.

Lol... That basturk guy dat played midfield. Na Hassan Sas catch my fancy that tournament in Turkish team sha. Then that Ilhan Mahzis(I dunno weda I even spelt his name correctly sef) that scored that winning goal against Senegal. Mehn, that goal pain me die.

That team try well sha. Dey tried against Brazil both games

TheLequte:
Eyah. It is what it is sha. Maybe she can win medal for Arsenal

Lol.. My arsenal will always be arsenal oo...
Even the ladies dey drag for top4 there

johnjunior39:
70million plus for Maddison? That is too much. Odeegaard is possible and more over I feel that Madrid style of play wouldn't even suit him. Can Madrid change formation for him?

Lol... Madrid change formation for who?

Well, if odegaard is possible, mehn I'll be happy

ObaIgwe1:
Odegaard is now feasible. Earlier the guy prefer to prove himself at Madrid, but he recently had a meeting with Ancelotti who told him he will want him as part of his squad but couldn't guarantee him starting or featuring in most of the matches... So Odegaard is now incline to come back to Arsenal.

Oh well... If this is the case, then it's fair enough. Cos what I was thinking was that Madrid are at a rebuilding phase and they'll need all their good young players this season.

But if this(as you said) will Odegaard available, then arsenal should shoot their shot sharp sharp

kodded:
according to report it is either maddison or odegaard

Maddison will not come cheap but odegaard on the other hand might come in for just £35million

Is odegaard possible? You see why I said this club dey bobo us?

As for Maddison, I'm still feeling it as rumor, cos I've not seen any tangible movement from arsenal so far..

But we watch sha(fingers crossed)

Trevor012:
You better check before posting cause Brazil made the Semis in 2014.

Oh... True
That memorable 7-1

Illimitable:
Brazil 98 squad was even better than the 2002 squad that won the World Cup.

Ronaldo’s convulsion aided France’s win and I can bet French chefs deliberately poisoned Ronaldo before the final.

The sponsors(Nike) also played politics, they forced Mario Zagallo to include Ronaldo in the line up because of commercial earnings. They threatened to withdraw their sponsorship if Ronaldo didn’t start in that World Cup final.

Perfect!!
Same thing I read too

typicalgamer:
I just wanted to say this.

It seems people forgot how that Brazilian team played. It’s all individual brilliance for them not very cohesive in team play.

But that prime 2010 Spain squad guys you should go back and watch iniesta highlights. He was a mad man

Most of Spain's goal in the world cup win was 1-0s.(aside the Switzerland loss and Chile win 2-1).

You want to tell me the Spanish team will prevent that Brazil squad from scoring goal??

Everyone knows from 2006, Brazil team wasn't that strong like before. Reason why since 2006, they've not reached any semi final in world cup, unlike pre-2006 where semi final and finals was their birthright.

daveP:
No matter how we try to bend to suit Arteta's whims, he's failed in one key aspect of man management off pitch. You're not using a player, yet you block even a loan move??!


Let's call a spade its name. I guess its the young blood manager syndrome.


Irrespective, i believe the season will be above average.


Key notice: the first 5 matches will be integral deciders of what to expect this new EPL season.

This season might even be worse than last season sef.
I don't expect man city, Liverpool, Chelsea, man u and all to lose points same way they did last season.

We are just an injury away from smith Rowe (who is even an injury prone player sef) and we'll be back to our one win per month situation.

It baffles me how those at the helm are even taking this kids sef. They're believing saka and Smith Rowe should play every match.

Maybe na 12th we go finish next season sef

johnjunior39:
Lol...well onto the next one, I say no to Ramsdale, I no trust anything English but I dont know how this man is paying less concern to creativity. Dont think any top target can come through now, which number Maddison wan wear? I am just trying to imagine Rowe getting injured or been like 4games out

Yours is Ramsadale, mine is Abraham. I don't want Abraham near Emi... Not to talk of Rate. And to think some of our legend are endorsing it sef is surprising.

As for our coach and edu not thinking about creativity, that one na dem sabi. It just proved that they really didn't want to get an Am last season, instead dem just dey use Aouar news dey bobo us.

Cos if really creativity and Am is what they think was their issue, the 50m+ will be used to sort those out first before thinking of defence. But trust dem na... They believed our issues last season was defence and not attack, reason why they brought us the new Van Dijk

We should be happy bro

BlueRayDick:
Arteta Don use agidi sign Ben White.....No wam!

Latest Van dijk is here

TheLequte:
Exactly. Their prime was around Korea/Japan 2002. The way they defeated that formidable Turkish team and Rustu, their brilliant GK twice and then beat Germany in the final no be here.

Germany dominated that final and dem still chop 2-0. This Spanish side go chop more than 2 for their hand

Lol.. That Turkish team of Rustu and Hassan Sas

That Brazil team strong sha. And we still had upcoming Kaka for bench sef

TheLequte:


That girl dey play anything. She get correct goal sense. The goal she scored today sef na baba goal.

She’s got about 9 goals already and is the top scorer. Maybe she will win the golden boot- if there’s such a thing at the olumpics. Others are about 4-5 goals behind her.

Lol... Na correct lady be that. I'm still shocked she's still at arsenal sef, seeing that arsenal ladies of now no dey like before (same thing with the guys unfortunately ). Na real goal machine she be.

Tho they don't give personal award(like best player or highest goal scorer), so na just medal tinz for Olympics. So sad she's already out by now sha

TheLequte:
Jodera see your girl Miedema losing penalty for Netherland. Be like say Arsenal and losing go hand in hand.

Lol... That my girl na Netherland legend ooo.
She can do as she like abeg, she earned it

TheLequte:
He was talking about 2006.

In 1998, Ronaldo was still the player of the tournament despite that loss.

Four years later they got to the final again and won the World Cup.

The longevity of that team beats anything Spain puts on the table. They don’t have a midfield pass maestro like them xavi and Iniesta but they can defend well, freeing up Dinho, Rivaldo and Ronaldo to cause maximum damage.

Wow... If it's 2006, then I think he's taking it too far.
For one, Zidane didn't single handedly finish Brazil in 2006. I think it's more of 1998 finals(scoring the first 2goals) than 2006

2ndly, that's not even one of the best Brazilian side even.

Ronaldo was already washing, rivaldo, Carlos et al had retired already.
Reason why I thought he was referring to 1998

And you're right about the bolded.
Not only where that team very good individually, but their longevity no be here.

Plus, each star individual player no be system player (s)

odizeey:
2006?

Nah... I was referring to 1998

iamoyindamola:
Them dan share number finish

I tell you.

Seems this season go long pass last season

Well...
Seems we might not get an Am or sell somw members of the squad after all

johnjunior39:
That Niles own pain me oh

The painful part is that he blocked Niles move, then still benched him almost throughout the season before his loan move..

Like he knows he won't use him, yet he blocked the guys move. Now, he'll be looking for a way to sell him for a cheap now

FirstbornWds:
All good. I've started referring buyers.

Jodera, Mostob... Make una begin call una pricing specialists.. It is time.

Lol... Dem wan sell one CL trophy to raise money for Mbappe??

Sniper4real:
Who wins

Is this even a question?

A team of dinho, Ronaldo, rivaldo, cafu, Carlos in starting 11?

Omo, Spain no go near o. Na just possess dem go posses like say dem be demons... Finish!

Mrviktor:
But Zidane single handedly beat one of d best Brazilian team

They did that against a convulsed and allegedly food-poisoned Ronaldo (tho not fatal food poisoning).

I read Ronaldo was so unfit and was forced to play that match(by his sponsors or so)

Roland17:
The 5 sub dey do me somehow.. Personally, I hope they keep it at 3 and not bail bad coaches with having 5 changes. I support concussion related substitutions though.

Lol... Personally I think the 5 sub rule will bring even more tactical switch and sub from elite coaches instead...
Also, why I believe it's doing you somehow is because it's just something new(my guess tho), but with time, it'll be gotten used to

I was feeling somehow too until I watched this recent euros.
