All this shalaye because you know you goofed. Kanu gave assists yen yen yen but no single senior tournament goal, no trophy for Nigeria and you want me to take you seriously? please I no get your time. nice day

Oga Chris nobody would agree with us except those who watched the duo but still debatable but I know some would agreed with us.

If I tell anyone here that Sunday Olishe and Muda Lawal remain the best DM to come out of Nigeria ...i know a lot who asked who hell is Muda Lawal compare to Ndidi....Sylvanus Okpala,Ademola Adeshina would have give Ndidi of today a good runs but to a lot would be What is Kog45 saying again?

If asked who is all time Nigeria best winger.. naturally it should be Musa cos it did at highest level with four goals or Finidi George who was arguably Africa best winger in the 90s but Segun Odegbami in all ramifications remain the best winger Nigeria has ever produced,skill,goal scoring and pace.

Honestly to our new generation of keen watcher of the game comparing Kanu and Siasia is like a taboo but sincerely in eagles set up the duo can be compared even if we are talking about assists...Late Rashidi Yekini will never forget Siasia in his career.

We just need to respect our opinions cos we are all here to share ideas and knowledge...respect large12 and tamunotoye22

That matter weak me

Are you sure the guy is really claiming to be 25 ?

Yes 25 my brother.

andrewbaba44:
Beater

You are a small club compared to any Laliga gaints

Kai Andrew,imagine the man Abubakar Musa with Ahmed Musa in that pics is 25 years old while Musa is 28.

No wonder NPFL is failing.

TheSuperNerd:
Looooll.... Just free them for now. Let them bask in this Nacho craze. At the right time like maybe end of the season when Nacho and Leicester have truly secured UCL football, you can go knack them.

Meanwhile, until then, just how sweet is it knowing how right we were about this Alien Kid wonder now metamorphosed into the Seniorman? Among the most beautiful finishers in world football, he is and he keeps proving all our Nacho epistles from recent years right... What can more can we say Sir GoodJoe but bask in this vindicative sweetness....

Honestly thumb up to thegoodjoe for his analysis on Iheanacho

Tamunotonye22:
Just to be honest, I didn't watch Siasia play at all. but how will only you in the whole world rate Siasia ahead of KANU!! even in the SE shirt? Siasia would have been a team player more than a star player, and your rating na by the kind goals wey him score and the opponent Lol.
Real Madrid dey win league arbeloa dey celebrate pass

My brother you already nailed it by saying you didn't watched Siasia so case closed and Pls read my post clearly.

Mind you I did not say Siasia was better but in Super eagles Jersey I will pick Siasia...just my opinion and I can defend it anywhere with facts.

Asked anybody who watched eagles in mid 80s and early 90s who is Samson Siasia to eagles.

Till today Yekini/Siasia partnership remain the best in SE history.Their pairing started what I will call evolution of new twin striking version which Amokachie and later Kanu blossomed in that formation paring Victor Agali . ..mind you Keshi used that formation to win Afcon pairing Emenike/Ideye...

Hope to see Rohr paring Osimehn and Iheanacho and we will see real eagles in display.

Samson siasia ahead of Kanu? When I voice my mind now people will start calling me names. How can a Nigerian fan make such asanine statements? Please if you didn't watch kanu at his prime go to YouTube and view some kayvaldo clips regarding kanu

Pls always taking it easy here when passing your opinion.

With due respect,i watched both Kanu and Siasia live not even on TV and I know what am talking about.

I remember watching Kanu playing for Iwuanyanwu Nationale against Rancher bees FA cup match in Ilorin(1992) township stadium.He came in as a substitute and buried Rancher bees.After the match I led a group of guys from our popular arena tagged "awon one school arena" to carried Young Kanu with our shoulders around the pitch even visited him personally in his hotel room in old Circular hotel,just to tell you how passionate I"am when it comes to our players

Pls am a Nigerian that don't care where you come from and I don't hate any player but need to pass my opinion on a game i have been watching since 1980 Afcon .

I still repeat it always take it easy though is a faceless forum we need to always respect our opinions and move on.

My opinion still stand I rate Siasia than Kanu in Super eagles but club wise when I no dey craze.. Siasia cannot lace Kanu shoe talk less of comparison.

Thanks.

2 of Nigeria most intelligent strikers iheanacho and kanu from Owerri. Nna eh kedu soap ndi owerri na eme? Omo e mi ni omo lagos sha

Pls include Samson Siasia...go and watch Siasia goal against Argentina(US 94)his goal against Senegal(Senegal 92)his goal against South Africa and world class assist to Rashidi Yekini against South Africa(94 WC qualify match).

Samson Siasia was highly underrated cos I will pick him over Kanu anytime any day when we talk of Super eagles most intelligent player.

Those who watched Siasia between 1985 to 1994 would understand my point.

Arabiandude:
So he should leave Leicester for Arsenal?
Forget past records, Leicester has become a bigger club than Arsenal

Leicester bigger club than Arsenal? even Man city is not bigger than Arsenal.

Iheanacho is the main man now... my number one Super eagles player.

Arabiandude:
Been regular doesn't mean they are good or average.
You can be a regular and superstar at Enyimba, it doesn't mean you are good

I disagree my man.

Do you think it is easy to be a regular in a club of 35 players.

Pls compare US 94 defenders with this present team.

JohnBullMySon:
I'm saying that Rohr hasn't had a poor run of games firstly. He's not been a bad coach.

Secondly, don't blame the NT coach if a player is clearly inconsistent. There's little he can do concerning that.

A bad coach? No but he signed a contract for better results irrespective of players at his disposal and I think with what we have now Rohr can still do something with the team and if he failed no issue

Arabiandude:
Been regular doesn't mean they are good or average.
You can be a regular and superstar at Enyimba, it doesn't mean you are good

My point is simple a good coach can turn around average team for better results.I remember Greece team that won Euro 2004..Keshi won Afcon with very average team. Croatia reached WC final against all odds.

If Rohr cannot have meaningful impact in Afcon and WC with this team then is not good enough.

JohnBullMySon:
First of all, how good are they in their clubs?

It's only when you have proven players consistently performing poorly that you blame coach.
Did you blame Ancelotti for Iwobi's inconsistency?

Did you blame Unai Emery for Chukwueze's past run?

You get the point now

Are you saying Rohr cannot achieve anything with this eagles cos am not getting your point.

Arabiandude:
Do they also perform in their clubs? Can't you see how our attackers, some midfielders like Ndidi and now Nwakali are making waves at their various clubside? What about our goalkeepers? Okoye and Uzohu are progressing so well with their clubs, but can same be said about our defenders, except Sanusi? So it's basically the faults of the defenders and not Rohr. Though I agree that Rohr is always wrong with his defensive selections because I see no reason why Ebuehi isn't a regular

I thought Leon Balogun,Ekong,Semi,Awaziem,Omeruo,Ebuehi,Aina,Jamilu Collins,Akpogunma and Sanusi are regular in their various clubs cos I don't understand what you meant by performance.

Good you agreed that Rohr is always wrong in his defensive selection.

JohnBullMySon:
How many of those people there are trustworthy? Only Balogun.

But if they show their inconsistency, you go blame Rohr.

Bro,Rohr is the coach and who do we blame if they are not performing.

Arabiandude:
That Senegal 2002 team weren't average, individually they were very good.
From Fadiga to Diouf to Camara, etc.

Rohr is conservative I know, but so we have the defence to withstand world class attackers if Rohr chose to go solely attacking?

Have you watched PSG this season in the UCL since Pochetino took over? He plays a kinda formation where every other players defend, leaving only Parades in CM and Neymar, Mbappe, Di Maria and Icardi or someone else pairing them upfront to do the scoring. That's why you hardly see other players scoring for PSG except their forward players and it has worked for PSG so far.
So I think it will also work on the World stage for the SE, leaving only our Forward players to do the scoring, leaving maybe Aribo as a CM, while others do the defending. Osimhen, Iheanacho, Chukwueze and Maybe Iwobi are capable goalscorers

I got your point but with Leon Balogun,Ekong,Awaziem,Akpogunma,Semi,and Omeruo a good coach should be able to manage this team.

Napoleon55:
I don't think we have defenders to take us beyond second round/quarter final in WC,unless those new German guys are able to measure up to standard needed,

For now we don't have top diffenders.
In midfield,we only have Ndidi for now,
If any of EZE,OLISE or NWAKALI can fill the gap between the midfield and the attack ,then our midfield would b solid.

Our sqaurd is only good for AFCON trophy for now,not for *WC trophy.
Beyond WC quarter is an achievement for this team now.
And bear in mind the type of coach we have

Senegal reached quarter final with average players... Ghana reached quarter final with average players...Cameroon reached quarter final with average players....the same Cameroon lost at a group stage at espana 82 without losing a single match.

The issue here is Rohr. not the players.

Ppogbae:
Remember the likes of Reubens Gabriel, Oshaniwa, Oboabona, Odunlami and the rest

...yes you are right but they are Afcon winner and World Cup 2nd round finalist.

Let's see how Rohr end it with this talented team.

I had a friend whose father was a football star in the 1950s, '60s and '70s. His father also coached the Super Eagles in the 1980s and the Super Falcons in the 1990s.

You would think that my friend would love football but it was quite the opposite.

My friend was a tennis star and he represented Nigeria in the 1990s. He hated football. He was always ranting that football fans were violent thugs and that the government paid too much attention to football.

Anyway, Nigeria defeated Greece at the 1994 World Cup and then I saw my friend the next day. He was ranting that the players had gone to disgrace Nigeria. "It was shown all over the world!"

I was confused because we played well and beat Greece. Then someone else told me what he was ranting about. Finidi George's goal celebration!

"That thing was shown on CNN! They'll think that's how Nigerians are" he complained. I couldn't stop laughing.


Watch Finidi's goal and celebration.

UstazAhmed:
All these people do not have respect for Muslim leaders. How can a whole CCT judge be embarrassed by a common security guard? Can he try that rubbish with a common magistrate court Judge in the East? That's why simplicity is not good. If Umar had gone outwith his security details, would that useless guard have the temerity to go close to him?

Why are you guys so troublesome...so it's now Muslim vs Christian and East vs North.

jihday:
This!! Our defence is average while our midfield is so thin and lacks real quality. When Ndidi didn't play the Sierra Leone, Algeria and Tunisia games we all saw how they almost overran our midfield. We need real quality there

Pls jihday where are the qualities?

I think the issue is Rohr nothing more, honestly a good coach will bring out the best in our team.

jihday:
I believe it was better than epl, don't forget it was the period the English league was banned from European competitions so a lot of big talents didn't really fancy playing there

Thumb up my guy.... Liverpool fans brouhaha caused the ban.

andrewbaba44:
So you want to tell me the Portuguese league www better than Laliga epl bundesliga seria A then ?

kai Andrew why this my old English dey always confusing you..i said la liga,epl,seria A and bundesliga are still ahead but Portuguese league then was also a top league.

ChrisKels:
How would you rate the genesis of these two eras?

First Era: - Yakubu, Martins, Utaka, Osaze and Ike Uche

Second Era: - Osimhen, Iheanacho, Onuachu, Simmy and Sadiq

Notabien: Judgement should be based on how the two eras kicked off, put it into considerations the different abilities of each players in the respective eras in the eagles, and the quality of clubs they started off with

O boy Kai this one go be long debate o

Chris baba,only Osimehn and Iheanacho can compete with the first era but I still rate Osimehn as number one in rating individual player in both era based on his different abilities as a striker cos he is a perfect replacement for Rashidi Yekini.

Samueltemi337:
He said top league

Portuguese league was a top league as at 91/92 even Belgian league was rated than what we have now likewise Dutch league though La liga, EPl,seria A and bundesliga are still ahead.
