Abeg, na just harmless likes things I'd ooo

asha80:
anytime i see your moniker the first thing that comes to my mind is Joel obi

TheSuperNerd:
Depending on how the #NGASRB game goes, I strongly believe that John will be the first off the bench in the midfield dept. And I also believe that barring injuries, he will make the Russia party. John Ogu is already Russia-bound.

darkelf:
Seconded. Some one like me may just give him likes for constantly updating us with the latest news.

TheSuperNerd:
Quick question... Name the moniker that you know 100% believes this is gonna happen...

If you get it right then...

They are the real GWG die-hards... Believe me... Shout-outs to those Monikers mehn...

gbosaa:
Diplomatic boycott they called it. I hope Nigeria follows suit. Imagine Nigerian politicians, ministers, senators etc boycotting the tournament. The likes of Dalung won’t go, Dino I’m sure will be planning on how to take photos with clowns and circus girls.

It’d surely save Nigeria some revenue.

TheSuperNerd:
Loooolll.... Nooooooo.... Not at all. Newbie kwa... Naaah.

I was just particular about the "been hammering for years" part... As if you be one Methuselah like that... Honestly, I just saw the funny angle to it...

safarigirl:

safarigirl:

TheSuperNerd:
Ofcos I know naa... I was just teasing ya Looollll... Hehehehehe....

TheSuperNerd:
I've been dropping posts on the thread. But ofcos the latest is their 2-game friendly in Egypt against the their host's U-20 side and ofcos the age cheat brouhaha. Please go ahead and post in the U-20s... It is natural that the main focus seem to be on the Nation's biggest football team, The Super Eagles.

TheSuperNerd:
Sir Tbaba nailed it in those few words... "Fluid not robotic".. I wish I could like it a billion times... Honestly.

But uhmmm @bolded.... Do remind me when you walked in here again...

tbaba1234:
Not true, Football is fluid not robotic...

forgiveness:
What informed your mind that that I am a Federal character kind of guy?

Do you have any substantial evidence to back it up or you are just being prejudice?

tbaba1234:
Flying Eagles Douglas Achiv...

tbaba1234:
It wasn't a dive.. He was clipped.. The polish guy did not even protest. You can only say he exaggerrated the fall but he was clipped.

tbaba1234:
Kelechi Iheanacho ruled out of the Serbia game with a fractured right hand....

MetalJigsaw:
It would be great...

You know why I liked that SS position you put Moses?

Moses is a very slippery player. He is very difficult to mark out. His intelligent dribbling and dazzling runs is always a nightmare for defenders... And he's a goal threat too.

This is one thing Iheancho doesn't have. This is what is behind his struggling to link himself from the defence to attack at times.
He is most of the time very predictable.

kennysville:
Moses will never cooperate. Too selfish! More concerned about how he looks than how the team looks. World cup is almost here. Nobody should scream moses is selfish then O! Una dey see now, una still dey smile because its friendlies, he is gettin away with selfishness now. If i hear any noise I will call out names.

#Teamwork

darkelf:
Can simeon cope with the demands of a RWB?

Is he ready to track back when the need arises and as frequently as possible?

It's going to be a really challenging role for him

MetalJigsaw:
I think it's better if Ekong is at the center because of his positioning, concentration and vigilance. It you rewatch the Argentina and Poland games you'll see that most of the crosses that were made into our box, Ekong was always there to head them away. And he blocks a lot of shots too- quick shots that could beat Uzoho and into the net. And he's very agile more, than Balogun.

Uzoho needs a very vigilant and focused CB in front of him for obvious reason.


Balogun loses concentration sometimes and that's what caused the controversy about the Poles's claim for a goal.

As the ball bounced onto his chest he wasn't quickly aware as it come to him. It took some seconds to clear the ball which is already heading to the net.

andrew444:
Add Sunday Mba and Fegor Ogude also

tbaba1234:
I thought Balogun had a very good game against Poland. The best, he has had since the Cameroon away leg. His sharpness appears to have returned.

If you watch the game again, you will realise how good he was.

In my opinion, Ekong and Balogun are still the best CB pairing for Nigeria. I will love to see Awaziem -Ekong again though.

I think, Iheanacho flopped in the role of linking the attack, Iwobi might have done a better job there instead of sticking him in the wings.

rabzy:
That shows a lot of reasonableness, i remember she was very much in love with awoniyi during their u17 days, then she later supported iheanancho steadfastly, now she has quietly adjusted her team based on present realities in her opinion. yeah thats the essence of a growing person, always checking and rechecking what position you are and where you should be.

MetalJigsaw:
Moses as a second striker hmmm interesting....
And what if you replace Idowu with Simeon (RWB)?? To
ginger the attack from the other side

safarigirl:
Abeg, at the world cup I want to see a line-up like:


Uzoho

Ebuehi...Troost....Balogun...Aina

Ogu...Mikel....Ndidi

V.Moses....Ighalo.....S Moses

Kog45:
I disagreed with this guy submission on Balogun,against Poland he had a great match and was replaced due to knock.

Just watched the same Poland match again,Balogun was massive and at par with Ekong until he got substituted.

I'm really surprised this is coming from complete sports.

forgiveness:
Iorfa Jnr has the right to live and right to choose.

Currently, he has pledged to play for Nigeria.

Victor Moses own worst pass but today he is our best player. End of tory.

Martz101:
So why didn't iwobi and Moses market value drop?

komekn:
When Tega ripped the championship last season, how many EPL teams were queuing up to sign him.

Is that not an indictment you helped a club to get to the EPL and they didn't break the bank to sign you but let you go. How many EPL clubs were waiting to sign him after his outstanding performance.

How many MOTM awards did he win in the Championship

I do not know Onazi but do you And is that what he told you You are being presumptuous to a fault

These are old players on the wrong side of 30 you and have seen thier best days behind them taking an easy ride in a far less competitive league that you have in Turkey.

This is laughable Pepe is 35 so also or thereabouts are Robihno and Quaresma or maybe you deh joke.
