How come you pay attention to full details of Onyekuru's predicament but you find it hard to do likewise for Kayode?

He is not good enough... He failed in the la liga...etcetera are the only things that comes to mind but Onyekuru is hated by his coach.. the coach doesn't like him...the club doesn't want him to go to the WC and that was the reason the coach benched him though he was fit....etcetera...

As for me I know both players predicament hence the need to balance my judgements but ..na was ooo.

Ok, if you learn history and realize how your people were exploited and how these exploitation has affected your people and brought them to a deplorable state it will afford you the knowledge of the problems at hand and how to correct them. How many Nigerians are actually proud to be Nigerian and if you claim you are proud to be Nigerian I will ask give me a good reason. Nigerians do not know what it means to be Nigerian because it is a foreign creation,a strange identity nobody knows anything about. Maybe this will elucidate my points.

MetalJigsaw:
And so?

Ludogrets just said that the player from Kano Pillars (Lokosa) is below the level to be signed by their club.

Chai, this is our league top scorer. What a shame!!

What is humility?

Is it by claiming you are a sinner though he justified you, sanctified you and call you saints?

Rather the most arrogant man is the man who sees himself differently from the way God sees him.

I didn't call myself saint because I lived as a saint but because I have been made a saint through Jesus and accepted that fact through faith. This is humility.

Why did Chief Priest rent his garment before Jesus was judged to be worthy of crucification?

OMANBALA1:
Joebie, my intention was not to spread hate, I am actually a peaceful man until you offends me. Somehow we are saying the same thing and that is that not everything the white man brought was bad but our people has not been able to separate the good from the bad. The idea of education is great but dont give us western education because we are Africans. An example of how you can take an idea from somebody and make something great out of it is history of music in the new world.... The black slaves introduced music to the whites when they(blacks) were still in the plantation...The slaves used musics to console themselves and sing away their sorrows and then it was just blues, then rock and jazz and pop and country and hiphop...The Black American brought music to the new world and the whites learned it and today they(whites) not only control but dominate the industry.

So, I am not a hate monger but our people need to get the full gist about what the whites did,no sugarcoating and that doesnt make me hateful person. If we as Africans dont realize the our full identity then we will always be inferiors to other race of people.

forgiveness:
Then, why are you searching for what is not?

Call me so called saint? What about if I am holy, what will you call me?

My friend, 'unto the church of God which is at Corinthian.. to them that are holy...called to be Saints..' Who was Paul addressing as Saints in that quotation in 1corin 1:2?

If you want to know I can teach you.

forgiveness:
What triggers question?

You are trying hard to bring clean thing from unclean.

I can differentiate btw trying to bring clean from unclean and seeing seeing positive in weakness. Two different things.

PDPGuy:
If selected, 6’6” Simmy Nwankwo would be the tallest player ever to play for the Super Eagles at a word cup.

OMANBALA1:
Oga , I dont have a domineering attitude I just feel there are things nobody should teach or remind you. The whites came to Africa to steal,destroy ,ruin,exploit and wipe you off the face of the earth and this need to be taught in our schools...Every African need to know this moving forward ,they(whites) are not your friend and they dont pretend about it rather you are the one romancing them. They take what is good in you and leave but you swallow everything they feed you and latch unto them. Not everything the white brought was bad but we have to be smart enough to identify the ones that can benefit us.

forgiveness:
Compare Siasia's brand of play with and without Kalika. So, obviously different.

Siasia's most successful career was with Kalika. Fact.

I was number one supporter of Siasia to get the SE job on kickoff Nigeria and also one of those who vehemently kicked against his sack. So. I know what I am talking about.

I will rather take John Obuh as assistant of the super eagles or Garba, Mutui or Salako ahead of Siasia and Amuneke. Gbam.

Amuneke to me is an agent coach and his tiki taka style is one way traffic. You can't compare it with Guardiola's style.

forgiveness:
Five players out. What am I thinkng?

At least, we have been preached to to ask questions.

Now, what are the positions of these 'missing' players?

Idowu (RB/LB)
Mikel (AMF)
Joel (CMF)
Simy (ST)
Ighalo (ST)

How come those targeted players invited for Athletico Madrid friendly coincidentally fits into this position?

Mohammed (RB/LB)
Kelechi Nwakali (AMF)
Chidiebere Nwakali (CMF/DMF)
Alhassan (ST/SS)
Sadiq Umar (ST)

Will these players replace the 5 missing ones to make the Congo friendly?

Na question o but what a coincident.

I lost my one and only sibling yesterday to the cold hands of death. My elder bro, he was just 40 years old. Got sick the same day he was to start a very lucrative job after years of struggling without a well paid Job. Trying to control how sad I am.

Mujtahida:
Wey some states in the US is bigger than Nigeria.

Mujtahida:
In a competitive game the stakes will be higher, the pressures more intense. Being confident and assured is not for the first half or second half of the game ooo. An outfield player may have switch on and off moments (that too can prove very costly) but for a gk it would lead to pure disaster.

Perhaps the reason Uzoho was calm against Argentina was because the damage had already been done by Akpeyi. In that kind of scenario you'd say to yourself 'well, it cant be worse than this'. But in the friendlies he felt the raw heat that comes with carrying on one's shoulders the hope of a whole nation. I know it's not easy but hmmm no excuses will be tolerated at the WC ooo. Uzoho will either become a hero or a villain.

Bro's for Abuja here people pay big money for there children to acquire British and American accent.

daveP:
Lol@train with the big boys.


This team has a current that is showing good signs of transmission.

mazimee:
11 home base players? That's too much to gamble. We have everything to lose in that DR Congo friendly.

tbaba1234:
Rufai did not play any of the friendlies.

tbaba1234:
My starting lineup for DRC

Ajiboye(Akpeyi second half)
Aina
Omeruo
Awaziem
Elderson
Agu
Agbo
Joel Obi
Simon Moses
Ahmed Musa
Simy Nwankwo

tbaba1234:
Most of the DRC players are foreign based, aren't they?

The risk is small IMO

TheSuperNerd:
Na 4-1 oooo.... The 5-1 you recall must be the Netherlands friendly before the mundial. I know Yugoslavia best us 3-0 too. Hope I am not mixing this up too... Lol

TheSuperNerd:
Good! He was the best option and we still got banged 4-1 by Denmark.

And what question marks? You just said Rufai was the best option naa. Rufai had even been at the previous WC in 94... So yeah... Best option. And he got walloped big time. Case closed.

Icon79:
Pinnick is a fulltime mugu, OK. First of all, how many of their players would be flying in from overseas? And even if ALL their players would be flying in from overseas, what about the officials, supporters club, and other contingents that would come with them .... would they all be flying in from abroad as well?? Remember, it only takes ONE infected individual to infect others!

This is how these people put our country at risk. I bet you that some people would be making money from this game, that's why they'd insist that it goes ahead.


O pari

Icon79:
My brother, help me ask them. Anyway, I have twitted my mind to them. Here's the message I sent them on twitter:

His Majesty‏ @TalmudicSage · 8m8 minutes ago

@PinnickAmaju Mister Chairman,I am surprised that @thenff still plans to go ahead with @NGSuperEagles friendly game against DR Congo, despite the outbreak of the deadly Ebola disease! What would it take for you all to cancel the game to avoid endangering the lives of our players?


O pari

kennysville:
Exactly! Just what I was sharing with my brother the other day. It all starts from home

Icon79:
Exactly. And we don't even need this friendly match, IMHO. The boys just concluded a very long season, we should give them a couple of weeks to recuperate then the team should camp in London (or somewhere in Europe); play all our friendly games in Europe and proceed to Russia from there.

All this idea of playing a game in Nigeria so they'd get a proper "send off" doesn't make a lot of sense to me. After all, in 2014 we went to Brazil directly from the United States.
