The same Michael Emenalo is now Director of football at Chelsea so what are you talking about?

Anyway, we dont care about paper qualification, football qualification etc. We only need a man who would be honest and forthright.

Get Okocha, Oliseh, Adokiye Amaesimaka and such together, let pros run our football, not Godfathers like Sani Lulu.

i no expect this kind yarn from you.
you are better than this.

deb:
I don't see any reason why anyone should ask him to shut up?
We hate the truth in Nigeria. Is it not the likes of Okocha, Segun Odegbami, John Fashanu and other and progressive minded people that should be running our football?

John Fashanu a progressive
are you kidding me?
that guy is a born hustler.don't ever wish for him to be anywhere near NFA.there would be no money to pay the coach by the time he is finished.
never fall victim for his accent and grammar.
he is not it at all.

mystikal:
ok.

So you can hand the captaincy to some other person on your team (or on the bench), and you won't be charged nada, right?

i guess you will be charged.
the captain you are stripping will lose points.
your new captain has to be someone that has not played yet in that round.

Deji Tinubu must be my second favourite.
Emeka is on Super Sports (was the last time i checked super sports almost 2 years ago).
He is a guru in Nigerian league but is a top rate football analyst irrespective of league.
The first time i noticed him was on NTA about 3 world cups back.
Dark skined guy with thick lenses and stutters.

Jarus:
I am from Kwara and understandably interested in Kwara politics. Even if not his big fan, I personally have some liking for Bukola the son. He appears to me quite refined, even if his PDPship gets to his head at times and throws reason to the dogs. I will rate him 5.5/10.

Jarus,refined in what?
I am curious to know.

AjanleKoko:
Charles Anazodo, Supersport presenter, at the review of the Korea-Greece match on Saturday, went something like this:

'If you remember in 1994, Greece paraded the likes of Stoichkov and Balakov'

Shaun Bartlett and Gary Bailey just stared at him, stunned.

the guy is just a hustler with no knowledge of the game.
i don't blame him much.
my man is still Emeka Enyadike, despite his speech limitations.
His knowledge of the game is almost unmatched in the Nigerian media.

It must be frustrating for YAKUBU and ODEMS.

The midfield has been horrible.
They have all OVERHIT the passes.[/quote]that is a secret to success in this world cup.

is there a more unimaginative and unintelligent footballer than Taiwo?
the guy just amazes me with his poor decision making.

mystikal:
Jeez, -118? Did you transfer your whole squad?

Is Billy Gallas playing today?

latest info say he is doubtful but i have a sneaky feeling he will play because the latest info is only talking of Malouda and Henry starting against the starting 11 of last march.

oYaTo:
^^I'm sure it was 26 points. .

13 normal points, and he probably made him "El-capitan"

ya right it is 26 not 28 and he was my captain.
the bad side is i can't change captain else i lose points.
FIFA rough.

Spineless and faceless Nigerians, always behind one computer spewing rubbish. All noise no action. Your mates are even ready to commit suicide for what they believe in and you are all there making noise. If you guys really meant what you are saying, just march on toward Abuja after all David Mark and co are not spirits or rather do us the favor of shutting up till your children are ready to take their destiny in their own hands. Noise makers

Since you are not spineless, why not lead the charge?

So how many points did you get for that?
50 I guess

28 points.

this group will be very interesting. As for the Spain, I wouldn't write them in as runners-up just yet. I can easily see Chile beating the Swiss (as the Chileans will have as many chances as Spain and the Swiss won't be lucky enough to have two teams in a row miss chance after chance), plus one can see Chile losing to Spain. Thus 2 or 3 teams will have 2 wins and it'll all come down to goal difference where if Spain racks up a bunch on Honduras (which they should), they'll still finish top of the group. The real question is whether or not the Swiss can break down Honduras on the final day after having become accustomed to packing it in themselves.it would be very interesting,indeed.

why do we even need a new ball?
that is a question the over commercialized FIFA has not answered.
Very soon FIFA will charge for the oxygen in stadia.
everything is a money making venture.
it is ruining the game.
even accommodation in SA has been ruined cos FIFIA wants a piece of every pie.

Switzerland will not want their victory reduced to a nuisance win. As a piece of football it will not be hung in any galleries but it performed a useful service. If you can't have sumptuous play at a World Cup you at least need underdog valour and surprising outcomes to discuss in the pub.

This was the biggest since Senegal ambushed France, the world and European champions, in their first game in 2002. Germany halting an ominously good Argentina side in the quarter-finals and Holland losing to Portugal four years ago were the closest 2006 came to a script-burning result.

Senegal's triumph prefigured France's downfall as the world game's dominant force: a position Spain have yet to attain. Unbeaten for 35 games before they lost to the USA in last summer's Confederations Cup, Vicente del Bosque's team have appeared not only invincible but more attractive than Brazil or Argentina. They are the aesthete's choice: a non-warring blend, at last, of Catalan and Castilian elements, of Barcelona and Real Madrid – the great incompatibles of international team construction.

So Spain carry the torch and it was snuffed out, for a day at least, by a team featuring Philippe Senderos, whose Premier League career has slid inexorably to the point where he trained as an unwanted Arsenal squad member at London Colney to help keep his place with Switzerland, before moving to Everton on loan and now Fulham. Senderos's reputation for haplessness was enhanced when he injured himself against Spain tackling one of his own team-mates.

Spain and Brazil were meant to be on greased rails to the finale in Johannesburg on 11 July but now[b] Del Bosque's side are haunted by the knowledge that no team have lost their first game and gone on to lift the World Cup[/b]. That record begs to be broken. It defies reason that a first-game defeat should always point the way to oblivion. Yet the chaos of Spain's attacking play late on in Durban showed none of the self-assurance that ought to come with such a long successful run.

They are the only major contender to have been beaten so early in South Africa. Argentina applied sufficient pressure to defeat Nigeria easily but had to settle for 1-0. It took Brazil most of their game against North Korea to overcome the culture shock of facing a dictatorship in shorts.

Italy, France, England and Portugal all drew their opening games. Holland beat Denmark 2-0 without lighting many lamps. Only Germany, with their 4-0 win over a lumpen Australia, delivered a resounding statement, although there were signs in Brazil's play that their settled system of six defensive players, overlapping full-backs and lethal counterattacks is going to strike paydirt here in Africa.

Switzerland's win also showed what a difference a top coach makes. They failed to progress beyond the group stage of their own tournament at Euro 2008 but here they have already chopped down Andrés Iniesta, Xavi Hernández, Xabi Alonso and Fernando Torres, who came on as a replacement. Ottmar Hitzfeld, or Der General, stands with José Mourinho and Ernst Happel as the only manager to win the European Cup with two clubs.

It was too early for pundits and bookmakers to say the "old" underachieving Spain are back, though Chile will be tough opponents as they seek the Group H leadership that will keep them away from Brazil in the last 16. So far this World Cup is too short on star quality for anyone to want Spain to be ejected just so it offers something to giggle about in the pub.
