Is omeruo Igbo? Hahaha.
Better yet let us do zonal match ups

tbaba1234:
Simon Moses and Ehizibue are not Igbo

Osimhen is not yoruba

Divide and rule

daveP:
Seems even Musa no want as he see the clash. I imagine how camp go scatter that night.

I don’t think the account took any sides. It seems genuine.
I will fault Oliseh for poor timing.

daveP:
Joebie, do you believe this account? https://news-af.feednews.com/news/detail/29a0d009073b969e6ae1bec53c205fd8?client=news

The question is not whether Yobo has the potential to be a good coach m, but is he ready on day 1 at the job, with no coaching experience and badge? The answer is NO. Yobo will be a coach trainee.

Wahala dey. Experience playing, not coaching? You fall my hand.

komekn:
Yobo was not invited to the NFF set up by Amaju.

The experiential competence that Yobo has acquired by participation in 20 years + of professional football in Europes top leagues from some of the top coaches in the world exceeds most so called coaches with badges.

Having a driving licence doesn't make you a great driver.

Well it’s clear they want to make him uncomfortable. Now it’s up to him to take better offers elsewhere or not. That they are making the terms public, we can see the handwriting on the wall.

BascoVanVeli:
I think the right thing to do was to put contract discussions off until the world is in a stable place. That said I see no issue in the terms put on the table. There was nothing mind blowing, the only question is If the coach wants to stay in Nigeria or not. I do have a major problem with the publicizing of the terms prior to a contract being signed in that manner.

I think Rohr’s strengths is something we badly need. What they should be doing is finding him a very good assistant. They recruited Yobo and some of us celebrated. I think una eye done dey clear now about their intentions. Questionable decisions is always a bad sign.

junnyjake:
I don't like Rohr and I advocated for his sack immediately after the World Cup.

Sacking him now is really wrong timing as he's been able to bring a bit of stability to the team.

They are looking for an easy fix to a problem that is their responsibility. They need to be serious about improving the league and not thinking one whiteman can come and do magic in the league.

And yes you are right. They are inserting clauses that will be difficult for Rohr to accept.

Danielnino00:
From the terms of the contract,it's easy to see the Pinnick and fhe NFF don't want Rohr again...
I don't understand why they want him to live in Nigeria and nurture NPFL players...
I'm fine with him living in the country and watching some NPFL games to identify some decent players in the league who can add something to the team(I doubt if such players exist ) but nurturing them is another thing... What then becomes the job of the NPFL coaches ? Won't it be better if he spend that amount of time searching for better players abroad? Our best players are abroad. That much has been proven..

They just want to frustrate the man...

Keshi had an habit of reserving some slots in all of his national team call up for local players (as per NFF directives I'm sure), but it didn't do much to improve the state of the league..

Rohr all this while has been working as an expatriate. If they succeed to forcing/convincing him to be domiciled I’m Nigeria he may as well accept being paid in Naira. However being paid with a global currency makes it easier for foreigners who conduct most of their transactions abroad.

do4luv14:
Yes you are right,

bbut then he wasnt employed by an international firm, he was employed by a local firm,



so how is it unfair, when that local firm decides to pay him in local currency instead of international currency


most especially when you look at it, a 1m dollar, is almost or close to 10, or 100 m naira



now the question is, which currency is being strained to favour the other?

Rohr is not paid in Deutsche Mark or Euros but dollars. That tells you something. The US Dollars is a global currency

do4luv14:
Pinnick should extends the naira payment to the players too,

we will know those that want to rep us tro it,

as for you all bashing Pinnick for the naira payment

Joebie, and Komekn. You both work and stay in Britain, are you both paid in Dollars? Or better still naira or Euros?


Tbaba1234 same goes to you, are you paid in pounds, Euros, or Naira?

Finidi George is on Pinnick’s mind �

For those who believe in God Almighty and are Christians, pray and take the needed precautions. There is nothing to be afraid of if you have accepted Christ. The Bible says God does not give us the Spirit of fear, so don’t fall to the fear mongers and to some pastors now who are busy spreading conspiracy theories. Pray, take precautions and leave the rest to God.

For majority of the games Mikel played for Chelsea he kept his game simple though it was a crucial role for Chelsea’s many wins. Okocha however always stood out and his impact in games were obvious. These two players are in two different wave lengths.

Okocha didn’t reach his true potential but still surpassed many.

andrewbaba44:
Anyway one is a defensive midfielder and one is an attacking , so i am not comparing them.

Who talent help? many talented players didn't fulfill their potentials thou

There are very few players in football history that are usually marked by not 2, 3 alone but 4 or even more players at a time in a game. If only Okocha played less for fun, he would be among football’s greatest in terms of achievement as well.

JayJay may not have played for big teams but how did he fare when he played against them? If you talking achievement Mikel wins. Talent-wise, wise, Mikel should not be mentioned where JJ dey.

andrewbaba44:
Everyone knows jay jay is good

Abeg Comot testimonial game for here bros

So now you want us to rate jay jay performance at the Turkish league ,when almost all of you here speak badly of the Turkish league apart from me and few others ,wonders shall never end ,suddenly you want us to look at jay jay performance there (and yes he wasn’t bad there ) you guys should try and practice what you preach

I am not comparing jay jay to Mikel as Mikel is a defensive player and jay jay is not so there are 2 different players

But I am saying jay jay didn’t achieve any meaningful thing ,some Nigerians are refusing to accept that

Jay jay never even played at the big stage obi played ,maybe he is unlucky or bad advisors according to someone here

Instead of some of you to accept ,the other guy was here speaking down of Mikel saying he is a squad player ,someone that started more than 150 epl games in 249 appearance

Make I end here

Lol.

Talking about the Olympics, Okocha’s influence wasn’t always obvious but he never played to the gallery. Else we would never have won gold.

.

andrewbaba44:
Thank you jare

Mikel is the hero in this area

Even Kanu was the hero in okocha era

When you say consistent, in what sense do you mean?

Danielnino00:
IMO, Okocha has more impact with the teams he played for than Mikel...
Mikel wasn't as consistent as Okocha..

In national team colours,we clearly know who was more indispensable..

But like u said,both players are legends in their own ways...

Which is why I said conversion rate. He made
So many attempts at goal. And you are right he saw football more as fun. He really loved the game.

Danielnino00:
Okocha's end product isn't really as poor as some people like to make it look...
He still managed to score over 100 career goals in over 500 appearances as an attacking midfielder...
I believe he would have achieved much more if he was more serious on the pitch..

Okocha was an entertainer in an era that was not only result driven but also pro football artistry. An era that also puts emphasis on the best entertaining team. Football was more exciting in that era than now.
In Nigeria, people wanted to see Okocha play just for his skills. The love for
Okocha was crazy.
In Mikel’s time it was more about the science of the game. Mikel did not match Okocha’s following in the national scene. Having said that, both players are legends in their own right. Kanu had a very successful club career and his heroics at the Olympics will never be forgotten.
Personally I rate Okocha highest because he did what he wanted to do against any player any day anytime even when they knew his intention. He scored crazy goals although his conversion rate was average at best. He is an untouchable talent. Okocha May not have played for big teams but he always left behind unforgettable memories in every league he went. Kanu was a bundle of class. Mikel is the hero of his era.

safarigirl:
Guys, there's an argument going on on Twitter about Nigerian legends

The players in contention are JJOkocha, Kanu Nwankwo and Mikel Obi. Some are arguing that Mikel doesn't belong on the list, claiming JJ carried the team's he plays for and deserves better than to be named alongside Mikel.

Y'all know how I feel about Mikel, so, for the sake of neutrality, do you guys agree with this notion?

oga you are somehow.. you should just ask yourself why is there a lockdown in the first place? Is it because of the death rate or the mode at which it spreads?

somehow:
Mosquito kills about 321 people daily in Nigeria which is about 95000 yearly, yet no sit at home, no lock down, no media noise, but a virus that kills people with weak immune system which are mostly infants (very low ) and old people above 60 years with a fatality rate of less than 4% has locked down everywhere including Nigeria?


One person dead in 3 months plus in Nigeria from the virus, yet everywhere is locked down?

Book haram has killed more than 15,000 Nigerians, no lock down
Bad road
Bad hospitals
Armed robberies etc have killed more people than the so called virus, yet no lock down

Lassa fever still killing Nigerians in the hundreds, no lock down
Ebola killed thousands, no Lock down.


Please what makes this so called virus special that we are being made to shut down everything?

Is it because the elderly ones its attacking are mostly leaders of the world?

I need to understand what made this different!

A country were her citizens needs pictures to be assured that the president is working.
That business could have been handled privately, else make it a live TV session for all to see.

komekn:
What does this prove.

That's he is well, capable and full of zest for the job ❓

Every well meaning national leader is giving daily press briefings and not reading from a script. They are taking questions from a wide and varied selection of the media.

Our response was to limit the media representation at state house that gives the opportunity for disinformation.

There are now even more unanswered questions.

Collins would have scored a hatrick. He hit the bar three times.
Osimhen with a lovely tap in and Simon converted from the spot.

Bolowolowo:
The game was a bit underwhelming, but the W is all that matters. Osibaba on target as always. Would love to see Dessers get more minutes. Thoughts on the game??

My landlord needs to chill. I’m practicing social distancing with the internet as well and they expecting me to pay online. Haha

I sabi una well well. Nice!

Announce that you want to lead a revolution, yiu go know how far.

jihday:
For me, the spread of this virus has nothing to do with the govt, but the recklessness and nonchalant attitude of citizens. Despite several pleas from the FG that abroad returnees should self-isolate when they come back but you see them going to banks, attending Amvca etc. It's time we as citizens start to play our part in governance, no be everytime be govt
