Kog45:
I just checked his profile,sincerely am not impressed cuz he would be another Maduka,so better for him to continue his development.

Kog45:
Why will Uzoho with his age and World Cup experience be warming bench in Cyprus league.I just don’t get it

Kog45:
What is the name

Kog45:
Peseiro already discovered a keeper based on recommendation and is willing to travel to discuss with the keeper but I don’t know maybe is Okonkwo or Atubolu

komekn:
Talking about goalkeepers.

Since we simply don't have one , could we go wrong with Okonkwo, considerating how poor Uzoho is past and present.

Media talk about Okonkwo says he has something, having been a reserve goal keeper for Arsenal is a lot better than being first choice in the Cypriot league IMO.

Na why I read and Waka pass.... all those epistles na damage control.

TheSuperNerd:
Obviously damage control but at least he has apologised. The next real apology is via his showing on the pitch in the next game since we are stuck with him till the Afcon (thanks to Peseiro and his GK dept's incompetence).

TheSuperNerd:
The Apology.

Apparently someone close to him said something that made him make that post. Interesting. BascoVanVeli was partially right.

jihday:
Under Rohr, Francis Uzoho started 51.52% of matches for which he was in the squad. Under Peseiro, he has started 100% – he has never sat on the bench with the Portuguese in charge (not counting the unofficial first Algeria friendly).

Dread it, run from it: Uzoho starts at AFCON. courtesy: Solace Chukwu

Kog45:
Gone are the days Nigerians are so passionate about super eagles cuz then who born a very poor keeper who cost us WC having gut to make this public gibberish.

Uzoho snapchat showing Nigeria national team is going nowhere,meaning we are parading bunch of arrogant players who are not ready to accept criticism and improve.

Even older players criticizing dem na to reply back in a disrespectful manners.

u no see as em be malnourished orangutan 🦧

TheSuperNerd:
I agree his snap story is foolish. I agree it is messed up. But then what do you think is giving him the liver to do such? The handwriting is clearly written. Uzoho has the backing of Peseiro. He will be our Number 1 in CIV. It is inescapable.

mostob:
Na true o...it's been long darkelf abi na Blueelf show up here. I hope he is fine.




Yea... I think Afobear


Man would show up when afcon commences.

TheSuperNerd:
Francis Uzoho has a message for his biggest critics.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I don laff tire.

This is via his Snapchat stories.

Injury knocks out Osimhen from 2026 World Cup qualifiers

Victor Osimhen will most likely miss next month’s 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Zimbabwe after he suffered a second degree hamstring injury on international duty.

Reports from Italy said the injury the Napoli striker suffered while playing against Saudi Arabia in a friendly in Portugal Friday will rule him out of action for between four and six weeks.

The World Cup qualifiers are scheduled from November 13, just about the time he will likely begin rehabilitation from this latest injury setback.

Osimhen left the Super Eagles training camp Sunday to return to Italy after a scan was done on the injury.

He will also miss Serie A matches against Verona, Milan, Salernitana and Empoli as well as the UEFA Champions League trip to Union Berlin.

In November 2020, Osimhen was sidelined for several weeks after he dislocated his shoulder playing for the Super Eagles against Sierra Leone in Benin City.

If Only JP subbed the GK.. It really seems we are stuck on Uzhorror.

Bro he is really UZHORROR. Bleep JP
Bleep NFF

komekn:
If I said this hmmm 🤔

They will say he HATES Nigeria players from Nigeria.

TheSuperNerd:
Frank Onyeka fizzled out from the moment Onyedika left the pitch on 61mins. His shine as seen in the first half dimmed as Aribo was now deployed to the middle to pair Onyeka since Lookman had also come in same time Onyedika was pulled out.

This meant more defensive duties and less charges forward for Onyeka since Aribo is there now. Did they compliment each other in the middle between minute 61 and Minute 75? Not so much.


Then on 75mins, Iwobi came in for Aribo. Same story. Onyeka had to stick to the role Onyedika had vacated.

There are players who play better when paired or played with the right partners in a department or on same side on the pitch.

The reason we saw an Onyeka goal today was Onyedika's cruise control from deep permitting Onyeka to make those late runs forward and unleash his ball striking.

Thus quality disappeared almost with Aribo and Iwobi moved/brought in alongside Onyeka in the middle on 61 and 75mins respectively.

PERSONNEL MATTERS BUT PERSONNEL SYNERGY MATTERS MORE.

andrewbaba44:
Just saw that we won 3-2

I am not a prophet but I can guess uzoho must have caused one of those 2 goals we conceded

Napoleon55:
At least we broke the jinx of not winning a friendly games today

Tobichimezie:
Yes Sao Tome

Barryseal:
Let's not waste tax payers money going to the Afcon if Uzoho is the person playing in goal.
Best we withdraw from the tournament and save hard earned dollars fooling around in Abijan.
