Evidence suggests otherwise. Nigerian/African players Like Mikel, John Utaka, Obinna Nsofor, William Ekong, Atsu of blessed memory and even Mahrez are all married or in serious relationship with white women.

Flip it to Asians or South Americans how many do you know are married or in a serious relationship with European oyibo? Heck Brazilian players wey be confirmed ashewo dem no dey marry oyibo unless she's from back home.

Look at America as well famous black American athletes Michael Jordan, OJ Simpson and Lamar Odom all married Caucasian women.

"Rich black men from poor backgrounds"

That's the demographic that you identified to quote you verbatim.

You have changed the narrative and specifically have identified Nigerian/ African players.

Remember I said to your it's the exception and not the rule.

Selecting playeers from the Utaka, Nsofor, Mikel era
1. Yobo
2. Enyeama
3. Yakubu
4. Ikechukwu Uche
5. Anichebe
6. Obagol
7. Ahmed M.
8. Moses V.
9. Shittu
10. Elderson
11.ldeye
12.Taiwo

Etc ,etc

I will not go into the more recent era of players.

You at essentially VERY WRONG and misguided in your assumptions.

Icon4s:

That SA team is capable of shocking Senegal if underated.
Senegal may have had a 100% record because of the nature of opposition they faced.

That our group was the actual group of death

Nobody in the SA team is good enough to get into the Nigeria team. Your contradict yourself.

Curtisaxel10:
This is a real problem, bro. I think rich black men from poor backgrounds see white women as status symbols just like iphones, yachts or sports cars. To them, white women are exotic creatures and symbols of their "arrival" into the world of wealth and success.

The painful part is that most of those white women would never have looked their way if they were just average or poor blokes.

Rich white men would almost NEVER go for a black woman especially if the woman in question is not wealthy and established in her own right or from a famous family.

So, rich black men want white women. Rich white men also want white women. Black women are now the leftovers abandoned for the average/broke dudes to eat.

Colonialism really damaged our collective mindset as a race.

You are completely WRONG you are being stupendously ASSUMPTIVE.

From a UK perspective firstly, let me say it as a Warri pesin. D time were I go take catch one fine black babe , I go collect 100 Onyibo.

Black babes, will require a lot more substance, I need some lyrics, swag, substance, character and personality to get with a black babe in general.

In the USA my experience is a bit warped, but l notice my English accent. Gets the Black American babes drooling my experience from Miami to Houston to NY.

Europe more or less the same, and I don't include in my sample exported desperate OLOSHO from Benin and other places.

Was in Lagos, a few months ago Portugal. The Brazilian babes just seem to go crazy for Naija guys.

I personally did not date Oyibo babes for a duplicity of reasons.

Icon4s:
No need for emotive based rabblings. He simply cannot compete with the crop of players in our team.

When I tell you a player lacks quality and or capacity to play at particularl level.

I will give a reason and specifics.

I will not just say "cannot compete with the crop of players in our team"


Please add to the quality of the discourse and don't debase it with prejudiced comments based on nothing. Show more maturity please.

Omanambala:
Why is it that whenever a black athlete sees a little success they mostly go for white women but their white counterparts will never even flirt with a black girl. I hear Osimhen is dating a German girl but before he was this big black girls were his type.

What is really up with the black man?

That's not true .

What you're ar describing is the exception not the rule.

Mujtahida:
Artless kind of football.

Unfortunately yes.

charlesemeka85:
Saka is overrated

13 goals
11 assists

In the Premier League say you are totally wrong.

Icon4s:
Bros Komekn, forget, that boy couldn't have made the Nigerian team. Every d!ck and harry cannot play for Nigeria. We generously dash him to SA.

As one of the elders, l would have expected a more objective facts based response.

Not an emotive based rabblings based on what.

Why do you think he couldn't have made the Nigerian team please, ❓

Watching Sheffield Wednesday against Derby County.

Sheffield Wednesday have three Nigerian in the team, two Midfielder and one defender.

Fisayo is good quality, l can see why AC Milan put in a bid for him. He has refused to sign a new contract and he will be a free agent with a duplicity of clubs lined up to sign him.

Both in England and in Europe, with all the money 🤑 going straight to him.

I was expecting a number of you to pick this up , maybe you did and I didn't notice. I am talking about Michael Folabi Dokunmu.

He came over to England when he was about U13 or thereabouts. Was on trial with several North West premier League clubs.

Indeed Man city wanted to sign him but restrictions on foreign players,etc stalled the move.

That boy went back to S.A. then came to Holland and now at 16 has played first team football for Vitesse Arnhem in the Eredivise.

He is playing for South Africa and played against Nigeria yesterday. Not sure he could have got selected for Nigeria anyway.

comodo:
Yes why not. Or you don't know that some players are late bloomers??. So why not. Unless you want to play God. Choupo moting is in Bayern. If you were the coach, would you have bought him?. That's grace. Nwakali can get that same grace.

The basis for selection is continuous consistent oustanding performance, in any team , in comparison to the players available.

What would be the criteria for Nwakali selection ❓

Choupo-Moting is not relevant he has never had to beg for a club and always overwhelmingly played in the top 5 first tier league of Europe. He is not a great striker but he does a competent job.

comodo:
In other words, from the bolded, anything can happen tomorrow. If I can get you correctly.

There is reasonable informed knowledge based projection. Based on capacity, past present continuous improvement.

And there's is wishful thinking 🧐.

So do you think Nwakali tomorrow can play for Napoli❓

Maybe in your dreams 😴💭

NwaIdeato:
It's noteworthy that an interesting and refreshing generation of brilliant midfielders are churning out from our youth teams, with the likes of Ndidi, Iwobi etc entering the twilight of their careers due to fitness issues etc, these young generation should be taking over the midfield in very short notice.

Akinsanmiro
Eletu
Daniel Daga
Samson Lawal
Hope Linus

Are definitely one's to watch so far

Cc: TheSuperNerd what do you think?

Wow 😲 Wow 😳

They haven't played first team senior football ⚽ and you want them to take over from Iwobi. Iwobi is 27 (true age) and has a good 6/7 years more of top level competitive football left at least.

Youth football even more so at U17 level is essentially talent yet to be developed, potential yet to be realised. As best it's indicative but very far from conclusive.

What is more pertinent is the development programme, otherwise it will just be promise never realised.

This is where mainland Europe get it so right, as well as the South Americans. It's quite normal to see boys graduate from the academy at 16 to be playing week in week out in the first Team (mens football).

When you play with men it's totally different from youth football. In addition you are on a far higher quicker and qualitative development progression, compared to playing youth football ⚽.

It's this mindset that has left too many of you in a misguided view even delusional, with regards to Nwakali. Had a great U17 World 🌎 cup and you are still waiting for him to be the next Pogba 8 years later.

Meliforme:
I hope you won't mind if i refer you back to this post of yours in the foreseeable future.

Every post is time limited and the context is HERE and NOW.

Nwakali left Huesca without any contract, his contract was terminated as soon as legally possible. He was a player without contract.

He has spent two seasons in the Segunda division being exceptional and oustandingly amazing. That the only club that would take him was Ponferradina FC a bankrupt club and taking almost permanent abode in the relegation zone.

Meliforme:
A club's valuation of a player can be distant from the player's real value

Agreed but the market never lies.

You are only as good as what clubs are prepared to pay for you.

Players like NWAKALI have no value, nobody is paying a transfer fee for him. He went to Ponferradina on a free, and at best in bankrupt club he will get a year or two.

Essentially because the only place he is rated is here nowhere else.

Truidstar:
Nwakali and his club are going to be relegated. My own piece of advice is to change his advisers or agent. Talk to Osimhen to put in a good word for him at sporting Charleroi in Belgium. The visibility in the Belgian league is better. It’s all the way up from there.

Bad market na bad market, no amount of marketing can change the quality of a product.

Or you want to play packaging turn bread 🍞to chicken 🍗 , no matter the Baba u use eeee no go work.😝

Meliforme:
Should you always tell us how much he earns.
Nwakali's abilities are supposed to have command much more.

Nwakali's situation will improve dramatically, i am sure of it because i have seen it.

Money 💵 is intrinsically related to o player value.

Good players cost money 🤑.

Poor quality players get paid low level. money .

Your quality is linked to your monetary value , the money 🤑 clubs will pay to get you and the salary they will pay you ❓

Nwakali was the second lowest paid player in Huesca, they attempted to terminate his contract before it's expiry illegally. That is a very pertinent and undeniable assesment of his quality by the club and league.

He moved after that embarrassment to an even lower club Ponferradina that is near bankrupt and has remained in the relegation zone since the start of the season essentially.

So you cannot ignore the value of a player because it's directly linked to the players quality. In this regard money 🤑 cannot be ignored.

joxxy01:
I pray Nwakali gets a good club, he is to talented for Spanish Segunda

Then why is he in Segunda division in a club that has built foundation in the relegation zone earning less than €3k a week.

Because he is too good ❓

Joebie:
Osimhen asks Napoli to sign Nwakali

😂😂😂😂😂😂😆

Kog45:
Better to have true age team and not winning than having 20 years old plus team.What I want to see in this team is the futures.

In 2009 Nigeria hosted the U17 World cup ,this where we fielded men who were Uncles some close to 30.

Chukwuemeka the Captain when challenged he denies and retorted that is it only me.

The Brazilian team didn't win in fact they did not get far. However,in that team were Neymar, Coutinho, Casemiro, Allison ( goalkeeper). And look at where they have been and are going.

We get way to gassed about U17 football on this forum.

TheGoodJoe:

With what I am seeing happening with fake sexual charges, I will not rush to throw Amoo in the bin. Mendy is a case study where numerous girls came together to sing lies in orchestra.

I have a friend who played for a premier League team now retired not Nigerian but African.

He secretly put into his house CCTV cameras, because the gold digging women are able to do anything and claim anything for money.

I know a Nigerian now retired former premier League players who paid a Nigerian scheming manipulative bare faced liar over £250k with a non disclosure agreement. To end a very false rape allegation.

When these girls accuse you it's no JOKE
1. Club will suspend you ( with or without pay )
2. All endorsements will end.
3. Legal fees to defend the spurious claim at least a £1 million, expensive lawyers.
4. Mental stress anxiety are beyond measure.
5. The possibility that you may loose racially biased judicial system( black men are guilty to be proven
innocent)
6. All the women feminist organisations will come for you and trash whatever is left of your name.
7. Case to conclude could take over a year .

It's much much easier to pay the 👿 evil Jezebel than it is to defend.

The number of these cases that were settled out of court will ASTOUND you.

Marjoribanks:
Why Chelsea and United still looking for strikers, then?

Before you comment you should look at the context from which my response emanated from.

You are not being intelligent.

Marjoribanks:
I like the way Cavani and Kane hit the ball. Young strikers need to watch those guys clips!

Your dont need to go that far.

Go to any EPL Academy and you will see small boys hitting the ball with power accuracy and ferocity.

Meanwhile make I watch Liverpool beat Fulham

codemaniacs:
Its better for a Yoruba person to take a percentage of Yoruba wealth than a non-yoruba person taking from Yoruba wealth because it will still end up creating job opportunities for Yoruba people.

When CRV was contesting to be Lagos governor none of the Lagos LP electoral agents was Yoruba, all of them were Igbos which means if CRV had won Lagos then Yoruba's will become 3rd class people in their own state where Yorubas will all be sacked from the state civil service and become unemployed.

Which also means if Peter Obi had won presidential elections then non-igbos will be 3rd class people all over the country.

The problem with you igbos is since you lost the unitary system you created to favor only Igbos you guys have been trying to de-tribalize other Nigerians into supporting Igbos which will lead to non-igbos ( other Nigerians) self destruction and absolute destruction.

You're targeting Yorubas for your detribalization agenda but the fact that there are more Yorubas who are pro-Yoruba than the detribalized ones then Igbos plan is not working..

Focus on developing your region, instead of trying to detribalize and manipulate non-igbos into supporting Igbos that will hinder the progress of non-igbos.

You are very retrogressive the opposite of a progressive Nigerian, most disappointing.

TheGoodJoe:
God does not help criminals loot a nation. God does not help drug dealers sell drugs. God does not help riggers.

Criminality is criminality. It lacks the hand of God. It is evil.

Finito.

We'll said nothing to add than what's below.

TheGoodJoe:
Facts do not lie.

Wow 😲

oloriooko:
So what you saying is that whenever MRI disqualifies its acceptable but when it passes a player that you have prblem of age with using your physical senses, you question the accuracy of MRI?

No that's not what I am saying.

MRI can tell you absolutely if bone fusion has taken place or not.

However, human being are not static but dynamic and have differing physiological development rates.

MRI can not tell you absolutely what age you are . It is an informed ASSUMPTIVE deduction to say that you are likely to be below 17.

That's all

TheGoodJoe:

Then tomorrow you complain about how our football is poorly run. Forgetting that politics runs every thing in a society.

You can not have a prudent football system when your poliical structure is built on crime.

Agreed without question ❓

KINGinVAHALA:
Was it Tinubu that nosedived Nigeria economy?
Mind you, I’m not for Buhari which we all agreed failed but for Tinubu whom I believe in.

Yes it was , he is a core member of the APC he shares in all the endemic failures and incompetence as well any successes if you can even name ONE

KINGinVAHALA:
Yeah, I understood very well but that shouldn’t stops you from answering my question.
Tinubu is a man that looks for and works towards the progress of whoever that works under him, that’s why you would see his former employees scattered everywhere in all works of life. He always wants those under him to do better and go higher than him in life, that’s why he supports them with all his might till they gets to the top.
Can same be said of your Obi?
Mention one professional or academician that has worked with Obi and today he/she is doing better supported by Obi to get there.

TINUBU is an occultic compulsive liar with no integrity.

He creates cabals ( association's) of like minded public fund looters to maintain the corrupt status quo and as such all members have blind loyalty towards him. Because they all benefit.

KINGinVAHALA:
Tinubu is not and will never be Buhari, he can never behaves like him.
Tinubu hardly supports old men and women into offices.
Look at those he has helped to different government offices and the ages they were when he supported them.
Fashola, Ambode, Sanwo Olu, Aregbesola, etc.
can same be said of your Peter Obi?

Your assertion doesn't make sense.

A man who is already a geriatric with obviously poor mental and physical health.

He should first of all de - select himself, it's like blind man telling people with eyes which way to go .

TINUBU is an expired drug that is toxic to health and well being.

TheGoodJoe:

Babash. How come Africans, especially West Africans fail the test like mad? By the way, this current set are using a grade 4 screening. Sorry, that your take is false and fake. It is a grade 4 screening. You guys chill with your hate and lies. These guys are secondary school kids.

You have jumped into your emotive sentiment based bias and preference.

If you noticed I was taking in general and not to specific individuals.
