Make I guess, the club with agbero supporters? Dat club popular for lagos, club that shares name with undiluted ogogoro, I get am?

TheSuperNerd:
Lol... I actually don't think you do.

Kog45:
Oga Meli make I talk... NAPOLI

TheSuperNerd:
The Big Question finally asked.

But why do you want to know? I thought by now, you should have figured it out.

komekn:
It's your opinion even if it's delusional.

komekn:
If that's your idea of exceptional skill, guile, technique and dribbling you need to go for an eye test.

TheSuperNerd:
Happy Birthday To Victor Osimhen: Nigeria's Most Valuable player in World Football today.

Undoubtedly he is also among the most complete strikers/CFs on the planet and he isn't even in his prime yet.

More years of conquests and Greatness, Victor.

Cheers to the Monster Machine @24.

Philosopher1979:
How the Nigerian league can develop.

Can't nff get investors from quatar, Saudi Arabia, china etc. Also the man city group can buy one of our clubs.
We don't need our money for the league to run. We just need investors.
But nff are stupid and myopic. How will a league attract investors when it is not televised.
Anyway with our global reputation in football, we can easily attract investors. We have global stars like kanu, okocha, Mikel obi etc. They can easily market us to the world

Mujtahida:
Maybe not quite. Like AndSunGorilla said Messi is one of a kind.

Mujtahida:
As I watched Messi lift the world cup, I mused to myself: where is Mikel?

Why do this guys give our players who are in the same bracket with them so much gap in a matter of years?

Marjoribanks:
Have you watch the highlights of Chukweze or Moses Simon? Please do! I judge a player with real time match not highlights. Do you know why Ajax refused to sign him despite his dribbling abilities? Do you know why he is unpopular with Hertha Berlin fans? End product. Dribbling without assists and goals is crap! Who will he even bench in the SE first 11? Chuz, Lookman, Simon, Iwobi. or Moffi?

TheGoodJoe:
Wow. Move clip. I agree with your belief that none of our forwards can pass like him. He also has a nice curl to his short and long passing. Ejuke is sound and it looks criminal that Simon Moses has gotten so much run of games and Ejuke not giving ample chances. Shows that there is something wrong with those who pick our squad players.

Marjoribanks:
Ejuke can switch play with long balls? You must be related to him. The boy got his chance at AFCON and misused it. The only game he started he was the worst player on the field. He played against CAR and Cape Verde away what special stuffs did he offer? You will play a player that dribble unnecessary and lose balls in dangerous area in the middle? Thank God you are no where near the SE bench!

TheSuperNerd:
And that one game this midfielder started was the best midfield display of the Afcon by our team earlier this year but the same Nigerian fans deny it and tell you the lad is useless. Lol

Meli... the problem also extends to the fans. They don't want the truth.

TheGoodJoe:
Watch how both sides are good at keeping the ball and moving it. With the growth of possession heavy game, you must build a team of players that are gifted in passing and keeping the ball.

Both sides have been a delight to watch. Amarabat remains my player of the tournament. [b]So gifted with the ball in tight spaces.

We can't expect to excel if we don't field exceptional players gifted with the ball and incredible with passing.

Those managing the team need to carry out a continuous comprehensive scouting if we intend to excel.

You saw that second goal by Croatia. That is what I pointed out on beating a compact setup defense.

Just as in the early 90s and 2000s where people who could cross accurately from a long range and pick up strikers in the pool of defenders were a toast, people gifted in picking up angles from long range with curling shots will become hot cake.

AndSunGorilla:
Haha oga Major, make I correct Oracle small, you fit change the Kingdom to States and the prediction may have a chance, lol. Football here in the US for kids is capital intensive and stressful for the parents. As for me, am not ready to pay thousands of dollars just so my son will be playing football at a high level and I can't be driving everywhere or flying around because of football. One oyinbo once joked that, most US parents spend a lot of money on sports for their kids in an effort to at least get a college scholarship, according to him, the scholarship money is already in the money used to attempt to earn it for the child. Bottom line if God says na im way of cos but nna men, I no see dat kain talent inside d boy jare

Philosopher1979:
What a player has to offer is more important than club form.
For example if a secondary vschool has maths teachers but has a shortage of English teaches there is no need looking for maths teachers and we may have to lower the expectations for English teachers.
We lack ball playing midfielders so we need to lower the standards for them on the other hand we have too many forwards and so the standards will be higher for that.
We need midfield personnel that can basically pass, mark and control the midfield. Nwakali, ovie ejaria etc fit into this and so we need to lower our standards as we don't have any better. ABI the important thing is for them to do a god job for us

Another thing is that if we get that midfield right we can score goals against baby team in the world as we have good forwards. Our match against Sao Tome showed this

Joezinho:
Words on a marble.

I wonder how any right thinking football analyst would want a player like nwakali to be in the super Eagles team. It’s either they are hungry mofos paid to hype him or they don’t mean well for Nigeria football.

komekn:
Oh yes with the maestro Nwakali and a limited ball passer DM in Ndidi.

We can be pessimistic and even optimistic but let's leave emotions and be REALISTIC.

elyte89:
Wc one bro?



A midfield dt can hold d ball and transit quickly to d forwards,bro ,we never get midfield. Aside a rejuvenated iwobi ,who else do we have in d midfield

A stagnant ndidi dt refuse to grow in his style of play

Who again? D BrentFord guy? Not yet proven club Brugge guy? Bro , we neva get midfield

Mujtahida:
Very yeye thing that tiki taka.

elyte89:
Ogbeni, dis present eagles team would collect 3 to 4 from Spain today....no cap,

We wey no get midfield and defense,aside not been competent in dis dept,we re very disorganized when playing

Afobear:
I appreciate your love for knowledge but frown at your love for a handicapped eagle

Blueelf:
No be recently me and you still troll them on top this nonsense mentality

Bro, I told you that guy that said this na normal capper. The guy takes dey always make me get diarrhea

If na to insult people parents na, him get A1

Very idiotic fellow with the brain capacity of a toddler. Stupid guy

fabyom:
We wouldn't have scored because we lacked the personnel on the bench not because Addo is tactical. All our midfielders were out due to injuries. Shehu had to play DM when no one was available. Cape Verde had Rohr team on the back foot throughout the 2nd half while Ghana could not even pass the midfield against a team without midfielders. Otto did nothing. He was just lucky! Simple.

Marjoribanks:
This guy no crawl come from his hole when I got the Ghana vs Uruguay's prediction right ooo. Human being.
People like this guy has nothing meaningful to contribute except to criticize those trying their best to make this place bubble small. Small yansh dey shake. lol.

chrisooblog:
Success covers a multitude of sins.

If Moses had scored that chance in Kumasi you'll probably be hearing how Eguavoen is a new Westerhof incarnate.

Papi85:
oga kudus been deployed as a false 9 at ajax doesnt imply that he isnt an AM

even his first season at ajax he was played from the flanks. stop capping

Papi85:
did you follow his progression when he left ghana for danish side norjjasland?
