Naija U20 Lads already bagging Deals due to their U20 WC Performances so far

GK, Chijioke Aniagboso will play in the Ukrainian Premier League next season

Aniagboso has been signed by Champions of the Ukrainian first league (2nd tier) who are newly promoted to the Ukrainian PL for the 23/24 season, FC Polissya Zhytomyr

One of the Ukraine football's scouting accounts just quoted me (and my Aniagboso vs Italy post) on twitter to unveil the news.

Awesome news

Papi85:
if not for injuries Awo would hv gotten 15-18 epl goals this season

I agree

Can we now agree that Osimhen is world-class, or should I mind my business?

Papi85:
if una Dey fear to talk then I don talk am 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lol

Papi85:
Till now nobody wan report say nwakali and his team hv been relegated from laliga 2?

elyte89:
Pry 4 kids vs ss3 senior boys 😎

Who is who

Samueltemi337:
Osimhen to Newcastle....

You no like Oldcastle?

TheGoodJoe:
Wow.

Massive!
Pep in a class of his own..

Joebie:
Make we settle this matter.

Give both coaches the best players money can buy to assemble a team. Pep go trounce MOU.

Give them average players. MOU go beat Pep mercilessly.

O pari

Mou may not beat Pep.
Pep is too good
But Mou is a top manager in his own right

Try watch some Roma games
He doesn't always park bus

His team is having issues with injuries and he has a lean squad
So man did what man had to do to get to the finals..

Besides winning the UEL will get Roma into the UCL
So I think he's right to do what he can to get there

andrew444:
So Tammy no be epl quality after scoring 15 league goals for Chelsea then

Check how many he don score this season
Roma are an average team at best
Mourinho may not play the best football, but he over achieved with this team
Watch how clubs will rush him at season's end

typicalgamer:
When last did AS ROMA WON A TROPHY ?

Please tell me I’m begging

Watch him dribble that question
Listen to the rubbish he will drop as answer

Odunayaw:
You're the one fighting ghosts

You're the one who began to cry because of stats of the Roma V Bayer game. Talking about Mourinho getting left behind, talking about how poor tactically he is

do4luv tells you about Mourinho beating Pep to prove his tactical mettle

You thrive on vain arguments

All the time
And he argued just for arguing sake
The man got into the finals
Leave it and move on!
He's being left behind but he's gotten into 2 finals with mostly rejected players from top teams
This one dey here dey argue rubbish
If mou win UEL, make he go collect the cup from him hand because he park bus
Arguing stubbornly and blindly

TheGoodJoe:

Mourinho spent huge money at Manchester United to crash them.

Smartly omit the fact that he delivered UEL trophy his first season
Anyway continue with your agenda
Suit yourself

komekn:
He bypassed Holland, Germany, Spain, England and Scotland and goes to Ireland 🤔🤔Eeee get as he be.

Lol
Maybe na wetin him fit afford

darkelf:
I just thought of something

Quite a number of our indigenous coaches received egunje to field certain players..this is common knowledge by now..

Here's the curious case; this egunje is in millions...

Now, why don't these dame coaches use the same.millions to at least register and attend some online coaching courses to improve on themselves? I'd it the same NFF that's stopping them from doing something that's just common sense?

Shoes thar the NFF isn't the only problem, our indigenous coaches are mentally backward. I wouldn't recommend any of them for the National team jobs if I had the power, none of them would smell it. There's something seriously wrong with them.

Kennedy Boboye just completed his course in Ireland

TheSuperNerd:
Sorry Arsenal. I rooted for you guys since the beginning of the season but then you only have yourselves to blame.

#EPLTitleRaceIsOver

Doc
Notice how Brighton are pushing for top 4?
Wow!
And they have an outstanding match!!
Amazing!
De Zerbi is too good!

Papi85:
massively underrated

I always thought so
Meanwhile, Arsenal don throway league o
City can wrap up the title by winning their next match
So sad for Arsenal

Is it just me, or is Gundogan a tad underrated?

Danielnino00:
I won't call it luck..... Awoniyi could have stayed with Union Berlin for one more season and be part of this good season they are having..that could have earned him a move to a better team .. Osimhen played in the Belgian league as Awoniyi and clearly outperformed him ...

Exactly
I mentioned this at the beginning of the season when they were topping the league at some point

COOL10:
Well it's possible sha. I just checked and saw that he's earning about £30,000 per week at Southampton. At a black market rate of #930, that means he's currently earning #27,900,000 per week

You Sabi how e go
30k pounds a week for a Nigerian?
Who no go fly?
And I think he signed a 5 year deal
So dude should be fine

COOL10:
Simy made the same mistake, even worse.

I understand your point but as a striker, goals are your primary duty and that's why Man City did all they could to sign Haaland. You can do all the hold up and link up play in this world but at the end of the day, what people will remember you for are your goals because that is your primary duty. Assists come second.

Concerning Choupo, that was all part of the agent's plan. Terminate your contract with stoke, and I'll get you a free transfer move to PSG. From PSG, he got him a move to Bayern. Now that's how a smart agent works.

As a footballer, if you have an agent with great selling skills, you've solved half of your problems.

The bolded is true

COOL10:
I've been thinking about this and I have come to the conclusion that Onuachu's agent must be very lazy and inefficient. In fact, the guy na cow.

Why did get him a move to Southampton of all places? Didn't he see mid table teams like Fulham and Brighton that specialize in a lot of dangerous crosses into the box?

Onuachu would have scored more goals playing as a back up striker to Mitrovic or even struggling for the number 9 spot with Welbeck/Ferguson in Brighton.

He scored lots of goals in Genk because he had the likes of Ito and Bongonda around him. These players knew how to cross the ball.

I can't even name any good Southampton winger/fullback but in Fulham, there's Willian. In Brighton, there's Mitoma, March, Gross. These players can guarantee you at least two good crosses each, per game.

If those teams don't want you, then stay in your Belgium or move to Spain/France.

That move to Southampton still dey vex me till today.

It was all about the money for Onuachu
I guess he was offered around 5 times his Gent salary or more
Man had to secure the bag, he's not getting younger after all

codemaniacs:
its not about tricks... Lukaku does it alot.. runs diagonally from the right into the box then scores and since he is tall and big he doesn't need tricks because it will be difficult to tackle him and push him off the ball, other players will fall down looking for the foul...

Boniface can play from the flanks on both wings, from the goals I just watched on Youtube he can operate on both wings..

put Osimhen on the right, put Boniface on the Left, then put Awoniyi in the center then Orban behind Awoniyi and you have a deadly attack.

Na wa o
Who go come dey midfield?

TheLoneCitizen:
Exclusive:

Villarreal have told Samuel Chukwueze that he would be allowed to leave the club if any club matches his transfer value.
Both parties agree this is his last season.
Liverpool most likely destination.

Let's see how this plays out

Curtisaxel10:
OGN reports that Peseiro's contract has been extended to 2024. Apparently, there is a clause in his contract that says he can only be sacked if he fails to win the next AFCON. Otherwise, NFF would have to pay him a huge severance fee.

Seems we're in for a long ride, guys🙂.

We better enjoy the ride then..
He may not be top class, but I don't think he's too bad either
Once he gets his player selection right, I believe he can deliver

Blueelf:
The Most the SE will get is a draw

In fact, that game is ending 0-0 or 1-1 or 1-0 in favour of Gunea bissau

I see 0:0 or 2:1 in favour of GB

Amedino99:
Just seen the highlights of the match. On a good day we were winning that match with a 3 goal lead. Too many chances went to waste that you can't really blame the coach. G/ bissau just came to defend and counter. The next match we should play moffi and osihmen together. Simon should start over lookman.

Anyone who watches the highlights would see that we would have won that game with a high margin
Is it the coach's fault if the players missed chances?
He set them up to create chances and they did
On another day, GB would have chopped 4 nil with the same players and coach
It was just not our day

Kog45:
Eagles is playing better now?well I be old cargo o when it comes to Super eagles so what you see I might not see it but based on my experience since 1980,Peseiro is not the answer.

Yes Chief
I think we played better yesterday since Rohr
While we point fingers at JP and his tactical deficiencies, can we also do same to the NFF?
Why take the game to Abuja when the pitch was in such a bad state?

I STILL MAINTAIN WE WOULD HAVE FLOGGED THEM ON A BETTER PITCH

BascoVanVeli:
The pitch was the biggest problem.

This is what I've been saying since yesterday
We would have trounced them on a better pitch.. even with the so called imbalanced selection and poor coaching..

Kog45:
Better pitch again?Peseiro lost four straight games for God sake.JP scorecard is the worst in eagles history and really surprised we are still rating JP.....What I hate most is bringing theoretical analysis in evaluating a very poor team with terrible coaching abilities that a blind man can see...my man I disagree with your view on Peseiro.

Chief Kog45
Forget the results for a moment and look at the actual plays
We created almost 15 clear cut chances in this game
When last did we have that?
I think he should be given more time
I like what he's doing with the team
We're playing better now
The results will come

Curtisaxel10:
I didn't get to watch the whole game live but after watching the highlights, this is my take.

Peseiro is NOT entirely to blame. I judge a coach's tactical prowess based on the number and quality of goalscoring chances his team produces. Scorelines alone can be misleading. We were VERY unlucky not to score several times.

The fact is that we produced several good chances and knocked the ball around pretty good (Rohr's SE couldn't make three midfield passes without losing the ball).

Peseiro has a clear philosophy of low-passing possession-based football. This is what we yearned for under Rohr. Sadly, such football needs two things that we don't have; a good, smooth pitch, and a cerebral midfield.

Tactically, I give Peseiro a pass mark. Player selection is his only issue for me. And I blame that on the greedy NFF that wants to sell Yummy players at all cost, not the coach.

Fellow Nigerians, abeg make we get small patience with Peseiro. The man is cooking something delicious. Watch how we will trounce GNB on Monday.

You just confirmed my take..
On a better pitch, we would beat these GB guys silly, even with these same set of players
The pitch really affected our plays
I really hope GB has a better pitch at least, or SE can switch to long ball strategy if the pitch isn't smooth for short crisp passes..

Finally they should learn to take more shots
Chuks started doing so late in the game
I wish they took more shots, we would have won by atleast 3

Overall, I give JP and the players a pass mark
I saw his input
Our passes were better and we actually created chances which was difficult under Rohr

In the second half, I liked our intensity

While we work on our midfield, I believe we can still achieve a lot with these current crop of players

Victor was frustrated I understand, but he should calm down or he would get unnecessary cards

Good football overall..
On another day, all those chances we missed would have gone in

I think the coach did his job
I give him a 6
I blame the pitch more than JP and the players
