rattlesnake:
11.6s too slow

OLODO read well

Nigeria problem is administration,how can a man that was sacked in oman for bad result be good enough for super eagle,what has the current coaching staffs done wrong, can this man offer better than salisu.so many questions begging for answer. My dear nation is still a suffering from mental slavery.

I used to be as passionate as you are right now as regards the Super Eagles. For the purpose of emphasis, i'd want to state that i was inside the main bowl of the national stadium surulere in 1993 to see Yekini, Okocha, et al destroy The Algerians and Ivoriens (4-1 on both occasion) enroute USA 1994.

Now my point is this, That Generation(1990-1994) was quite simply 'World Class' as evident in their club form the length and breadth of Europe. What you fail to realise is that, the talent coming through in this generation of SE players is 'DEFINITELY' below par and that's only natural! (NOTE THIS POINT).

You'd also realise that this set of players woefully failed to qualify for the last 2 AFCONS, a thing unheard of with the class of (1990-1994)! You seem to forget all too soon that there was a time when AFCON qualifiers was left to the Home Based players just so the professionals could give a 100% attention to the WC qualifiers, but those days are long gone because the Pros of today can't beat Tanzania and Swaziland away from home!!!!

Bearing my last paragraph in mind, How then can these set of Super Eagles players survive in a World Cup Group comprising of Algeria(Presently the best team on the African continent), Cameroon(Always 100% serious when the WC qualifiers come around) and Zambia(A resurgent side on the African continent)?

This has nothing to do with the NFF or NFA who always seem to have their house in disarray while contributing their own quota to World Cup and AFCON campaign failures over time. The real problem aside the NFF is that the talent coming through in this generation is not as good as that coming through in Algeria and Cameroon etc, etc. (NOTE THIS).

You talk about respect for this Team, and oh yes!, i was and i ve been there to see the great side of the nineties play 'LIVE' at the main bowl of the National Stadium, Surulere and conquer the best of Africa as it were then.

Bro, this team do not have the capacity to pick a draw in Algiers and Yaounde, and this is a sad reality we as soccer loving Nigerians must all wake up to come 2017.

Over to you, I rest my case.......

cc: Mayany.

What Nigerians fail to understand is that no generation of players dsame;this current players have something Algeria don't have and that is been unknown.

We know they have mahrez even berahimi and co,which will aid even Zambia and Cameroon in stopping them.

Am not jjust been patriotic but am sure Nigeria will qualify.

Wishful and sentimental analysis!

Bro, this group is way beyond Nigeria. No way on earth we'd get a draw in Algiers and Yaounde. Then again Algeria may beat us here in Naija.

Russia 2018 is a 'BRIDGE TOO FAR' for this generation of Super Eagles players!

Bro world cup qualifier is like a marathon is not tonerment...Nigeria might be in disarray now but there is alot of time to improve on that.

Nigeria will qualify from that group.

Chartey:
Yes DR Congo will qualify, they'll easily thrash Tunisia. Senegal and Nigeria may qualify too but there's no way Egypt and Mali will qualify. Have you forgotten how Ghana whitewashed Egypt 6:1 so soon? Yes Egyptian football has recovered and both Al Ahly and Zamalek are doing well in the Champions League this season but they can't withstand the might of the Black Stars. Mali may put up an early challenge but they'll eventually capitulate. It's also wrong to say the Ivorian golden generation is gone. Their players are always at the highest level, Bailly just joined Manchester United. They keep producing these players.

My brother football is not history;Is gonna be tough for both team but I believe Egypt have the edge over them having to play them first and having the last game in Egypt;those guys can be fustrating when they are home and for Mali group is actually a tricky group but I don't cee ivory Coast players serious and they are actually lacking leadership...players choosing games to play

GROUP A; it will be a very easy ride for DR congo,right now they have one of the best players in Africa with a very nice strike force.There only problem will come from Tunisia who are not having the best of times.

Winner: DR CONGO

GROUP B; very difficult group for Nigeria but the group can actually go well for them if the first match which will take place in Algeria go in Nigeria favour probably a point which is doable not because am a Nigeria; Nigeria actually play beta when they play in a nice pitch and trust me that can create a good momentum for dem;Cameroon football is not of high standard anymore and Zambia is beatable home and away.

NIGERIA

GROUP C; This is the group of dead for me because the 4 team have equal chances of going to russia,gabon might seem to be minnows but they got a good striker who is actually the African footballer of the year,ivory Coast ain't that strong with the retirement of there golden generation and Morocco is always a good side in there day.But I think Mali have some thing special from the bunch HUNGER and they have very good player all over the globe. Am goin for Mali.

WINNER ...MALI


GROUP D; This is the easiest group of all,with south Africa football not ready to achieve it potential and Burkina Faso football going down after there 2016 afcon final appearance I expect a special Senegal squad to cruise straight to Senegal without any hitch...they will only encounter some problems from Cape Verde bur don't be suprise if Senegal comes out with 18 points from this group

WINNER SENEGAL


GROUP E; This is the must technical of all group with the rivalry between ghana and Egypt coming up once again...and the group winner is going to come down to who get more point from that 2 match, I think Egypt will be happy to play ghana first in Accra and if they can get a good result in ghana...then they can finish the job in Cairo.we all know how difficult it is to play Egypt there,u can ask Mikel and co.

WINNER...EGYPT

casket:
Group B seems to be the group of death for me..
Group A, all things being equal, i expect Tunisia to go through.

Group B, either Nigeria or Algeria. North African countries don't find it smooth when they are squared against west African nations. Cameroon seems to be a greater threat for us in this group.

Group C, I expect expect Ivorians to go through but Moroccans will give them a run for their money.

Group D, Senegalese looks to be the strongest team in this group. Burkina bebé will surely pose a threat.

Group E, I give it to Black star of Ghana. They know how to milk out result when it matters. They did it against Egyptian in the last qualifier and this wouldn't be an exception.

Just my thoughts.

Oga u have not study Africa football atall

Beehshorp:
