Hahaha just like airing “change begins with me” jingles. Typical approach.

You ask question with a view to finding answers. You ask questions with willingness to drop a preconceived notion, with a view to modifying your beliefs or knowledge. A whole different approach. Not a negative, nit-picking, whining approach.



forgiveness:
The root of the problem is you and I and the changes also begins with you and I.

Now, you said we should ask questions and not just agree, na so em bi', right? But now that I am practically asking questions, why am I seen as a valian? grin

Does a confident person expect u to greet him first?. Does a confident person always expect u to put the first call? Does a confident says in action or words they are better than you? I have many examples.

I no wan bare my opinion on this matter before.

But let me just say this simply. There is a reason why there is order of authority. It is like that in heaven. Nowhere in the Bible will you see the Son having more authority than the Father, but ALWAYS the other way around (whether you believe in Trinity or not). Likewise the same thing is extended to the earth by God -- an order of authority. Money should never be the basis of authority. It would be better for the family that way, and the society at large. Women should earn as much as they please. Only men who are control freaks and who see money as everything will be intimidated by the success of a woman.

Let me ask what are feminists really fighting for? Equality or reversal of authority. it is just an honest question.

On the last bolded, what can u say about draws now? Only the host country is assured of a group, usually Group A. All the top seeded teams are drawn into groups. No wonder he was disgraced out of office. There will always be corruption in every society, but measures must be taken from within to check the excesses. As we try to make it better, the corrupt ones will always try to get smarter.

Icon79:
And here's the ultimate insider himself, Michel Platini, revealing his they rig the draws to favor certain countries/teams. When I tell y'all that the UCL draws are always rigged in favor of Real Madrid, most of yall thought that I was just crying wolf. Oya, hear it from the horse's mouth directly:

"A little trickery" was employed for the 1998 World Cup draw to ensure France and Brazil did not meet until the final, disgraced former Uefa president Michel Platini has claimed.

The French hosted and won their first World Cup 20 years ago, beating Brazil 3-0 in the final in Paris.

Former France captain Platini was on the tournament's organising committee.

"When we organised the schedule, we did a little trickery," he told radio station France Bleu Sport.

"France-Brazil in the final, it was the dream of everyone.

"If we finished first in the group and Brazil finished first, we could not meet before the final."

He laughed as he went on: "We did not spend six years organising the World Cup to not do some little shenanigans. Do you think other World Cup hosts did not?"

Brazil and France were the top teams in the Fifa rankings heading into the tournament and were among the eight top-seeded teams.

Two days before the draw took take place, world governing body Fifa announced that holders Brazil would be allocated to Group A while France were in Group C.

Yes Kalika also helped him win bronze at Rio abi?. Kalika was also instrumental to Manu Garba's U20 team failing to disgrace the U23 team when our own Flying Eagles were whopping all the top NPFL teams at the Super 6. Siasia also beat Brazil 1-0 without Kalika (thanks to Emmanuel Daniel though). My friend I wont take anything away from Kalika. Siasia is indeed wise to be able to choose the right minds to help him in his job. But you can't take anything away from Siasia, because he also did very well without Kalika. Although sometimes it seems he has his boys. But in reality every coach has their boys for reasons we can always investigate.

Amuneke football na tik tak? Don't sound like a hater now. Oh yes I will agree with you on that, only on the ground that he is really an agent

forgiveness:
Kalika was behind Siasia's success from the U20 to Olympics, and until he first became national team coach but after Kalika left his pattern of play depreciated greatly.

Amuneke all about tik tak and at the same time an agent. Not good for the national team.

Yes we really need change.. I'm not denying that.. But if we are really going to change things we need leaders that have the know-how. And what I've just highlighted is for us understand the root of the problem. if we don't start from there -- the way we think as a people -- we cannot reorientate ourselves for change. Parents will need to start having a different conversation with their kids. Teachers will need to start teaching with a whole new perspective. Our school curriculum should be designed to embrace our history with an analytical approach. Our children should be spurred to ask questions and not just accept anything and everything as "na so e be" or "na so dem dey do am". We are not intelligent because we don't ask questions. we are not intelligent because we don't challenge ourselves to find better solutions to problems. But we think we are intelligent based on the number of degrees we have.

My friend corruption is a reality. But we need to first analyze the root cause of the problem.

forgiveness:
Yeah! We look at the positive of how politicians are mediocre of drilling boreholes in the 21st century and neglect the negative corruption of known cases. You are right.

Through a statement on their official website, German Bundesliga club Borussia Mönchengladbach have announced that they have pulled off a transfer coup by landing the hugely talented Nigerian winger Keanan Bennetts from Tottenham Hotspur.
Born in Edgware, London to a German mother and Nigerian father, Bennetts has penned a four-year deal that will keep him at Mönchengladbach until the end of the 2021-2022 season.

Speaking on the deal, Bennetts said : ''Borussia is one of Germany’s biggest teams. I’m really looking forward to experiencing the atmosphere at BORUSSIA-PARK.''

Sporting director Max Eberl added : "Keanan can play a variety of attacking roles. He has played for Spurs in the Premier League 2 and in the UEFA Youth League this season, and we back him to make the step up to the Bundesliga.
''We’re delighted he has chosen to sign for Borussia.''


Keanan Bennetts has represented Germany at U15 level and also has caps for England U16, U17 and U19 national teams.

Amuneke demonstrated tactical acumen as an U17 coach. While Manu Garba’s U17 team of 2013 looked more talented, Amuneke’s team of 2015 were more tactically disciplined. Siasia’s strengths remain his attack mindedness. You cannot have that kind of coach as your assistant and still be lacking goals. A silver and bronze medal at the olympics shows merit and great experience on the job.

We are not talking coaching badges here.

Rohr To Update World Cup List With Poland, Serbia Friendlies; Monitors Ezenwa, Simon

Gold Usenekong
3 months ago
By Adeboye Amosu: Super Eagles head coach Gernot Rohr says next month’s friendly fixtures against Poland and Serbia present a big opportunity for players to stake claims for spots in his final squad ahead of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, Completesportsnigeria.com reports.

The three-time time African champions will face Poland in Warsaw on March 23rd and take on Serbia four days later in London.

Got something to say? The let your voice be heard! Back Pass *Sport related topics only*
Three other build-up games against Congo, England and Czech Republic are also lined up for May 28, June 2nd and June 6th respectively.

Rohr stated that he has pencilled down a list of 28 players for two friendlies and hopes the players push hard to make the final list for the mundial.


“In the next couple of weeks we will release a list of 28 players for the friendly games against Poland and Serbia. We still have one or two players that we want to check on before coming out with the list,” the German coach told CSN at the Agege Stadium, Lagos on Wednesday.

“Moses Simon has been injured a couple of weeks now and we expect that he will be back in action for his club (Gent of Belgium) this weekend.

“There is also Ezenwa who is injured at the moment but is working hard to be fit.

“The games against Poland and Serbia is a big chance for the new players to show they have what it takes to play for us. As you know the next game will be in May so now is time for everyone who want to go to Russia to prove their quality.

“The two games are also important for us because the last time we played together was in November against Argentina. So, it will be an opportunity to work together again before the World Cup.

“In May, we will release another 30-man list for the other friendly games from which we will draw the final list for the World Cup.”

The Super Eagles will open their campaign at the 2018 FIFA World Cup on June 16 against Croatia at the Kaliningrad Stadium.

They will also face Iceland on June 22 at the Volgograd Arena. Their final group game is against Argentina on June 26 at the Krestovsky Stadium, St Petersburg.

Before the Serbia-Poland friendlies, Rohr made it clear he would be inviting 28 to prosecute the friendlies and later 30 players to make the preliminary World Cup squad. So tell us, when was the 5 names sneaked in to make it 35?

forgiveness:
Sadiq Umar is a Roma player.

He's even in for the Athletico Madrid friendly or it's also likely he is among the 35 man list which NFF decided to show us 30 and decided to call the other 5 foreign players to join the team secretly after the friendly match against Athletico Madrid with the excuse that they are just training with the main team. That's all.

No wonder 7 foreign players were called to hide their secret dealings, so as not to make it obvious that 5 were actually on the list. grin

This plan might have been explained to their various clubs in order to secure their release because the clubs, in no normal circumstances are oblige to release their players for an inconsequential friendly that will add no value to the players hence the Roma famzing us. grin

If true, NFF and Rohr wouldn't have been able to explain the inclusion of five targeted players if they announced all the 35 man list at once because it's obvious they are not the best we have this season hence the defactor.

I know the players are the Nwakali brothers, Alhassan Ibrahim, Musa Mohammed and Sadiq Umar. grin

How could they have realised these players names ahead of the obvious better ones that did well this season?

There's nothing hidden under the Sun that will not be made manifest to light.

Wisdom of man is foolish.

Well, I am watching. Peradventure it plays out then I know agent is at work.
