Starboytwo:
we are just an anyhow kind of people...

Normally, heads suppose to roll for this abysmal world cup qualifications... Rwanda, Lesotho, Zimbabwe in our group and we still ended drawing 5 games. Using 3 different set of coaches... That means the head (nff) is not working well...


To the issue of South Africa. Although I have no single love I can spare for them, but nothing consine them for our matter. Na we just use our hand gift them qualifications...

Even in the grassroots here in Mushin, there's a female u15 competition being hosted and the coach of a certain Nakamura Fc refused blatantly to have his girls play a match at the home ground of an opponent.

It almost turned to chaos, but the man was adamant, reschedule the match for later or no match.. Apparently there was a party on the competition ground (walimot ceremony)

This is what Nff should have done, to cushion the effect of the undue advantage South Africa got in the qualifications. They are largely homebased(no player travels, no jetlag, no tiredness, no leg cramp) still played almost all matches at home...

We must be a mumu giant to have allowed that, without even one objection. As usual we just leave everything to Insha Allah.

Definitely, somebody or an office in the nff didn't cross their T's. Didn't bother to check anything, also no repercussions so far. No head rolling, no query, we move on as usual.

Naija levels sometimes 🤦🤦

true talk oo

elyte89:
C as fifa Dey whine us 🤣🤣🤣..dem say neutral venue yet approved South Africa 🇿🇦 for d clash with Zimbabwe 🇿🇼

African giant in the mud 🤣🤣

mank1234:
Only 3 away games realistically.
Loss, Draw and Win against Rwanda, Nigeria and Benin respectively.

in 10 fixtures they were only able to travel out of their region in 3matches🤣🤣
Nig 1-1 SA (Uyo Nigeria)
Rwa 2-0 SA(Butare Rwanda)
Ben 0-2 SA(Ebimpe CIV)
omo one again na wa oo 🤣
they only faced the real fans in 9ja and Rwanda and took only 1point…im sure they would have struggled against Benin infront of the real Beninoise…..omo FIFA andCAF should kukuma suspend any nation without a standard stadium….what are you going to do at the world cup if you dont have stadium in your country

do4luv14:
Pls Guyz who is the owner of that Stanley Fans group on Facebook

The Post from that group they give me concern, now they had posted that SA had been suspended

person wey don dey congratulations Nwabali for moving to ManUtd🤣🤣

September
Les vs SA (in SA)
SA vs Nig (in SA)

October
Zim vs SA (in SA)
SA vs Rwa(in SA)
so the last time SA traveled out of their region to play worldcup qualifiers was in June🤣🤣🤣….omo see flexing and soft life naaaa🤣….let say SA was rooted to the bottom of this group in June with like 4 or 5points, walai this 4 home advantage matches should be enough to bounce them to the top or second with a possibility of 10 or 12pts

all i can say is NA WA OOOOOOOO

codemaniacs:
it would be wicked and not considerate of the NFF if they send Osimhen an invitation..

it is up to the NFF to host tournaments ( U10s, U12s, U14s) and find Osimhen replacements...

asin eehnn osimhen kinda players full street walahi…just look inward, so many die-hard hustling young strikers

Mujtahida:
Hope dey, hope dey, to qualify. That's the song on repeat. Hope dey yet we bottled our lead against Zimbabwe and drew SA with serious struggle.

Thing is that these players lack self belief and aggression.

The old eagles, always fought hard until the last blast of the whistle even in marches they lost.

We remember Taribo (it was said that he hated losing) playing with a blood soaked bandage on his head, bleeding his heart out in our match at the world cup 2002. We remember him weeping profusely when we eventually lost.

In those days, even if Nigeria is losing 4-0, we the fans will still be pumped up with hope and anticipation that we can turn the tide. In fact we were more dangerous after conceding.

Afcon 2000, we fought hard and came back from a 2 goal deficit. In 2004, we fought hard, came back from a goal deficit and broke the jinx of Cameroon.

Today it is only the Falcons who embody that unyielding warrior spirit. Super Eagles have lost it. If they are winning, we go dey fear. If they concede, we go just give up because we know they don't have it in them to fight.

Sometimes it's not tactics. It's mentality, a winning mentality. Sadly our team doesn't have it. That's why I am now indifferent regarding our world cup hopes. I still pray they qualify sha.

las las hope dey…even old eagles break our heart in 2006 world and afcon 2012,2015 and 2017

yinkeys:
Guys
Nigeria can still qualify
We beat Benin & Lesotho mercilessly while hoping for Rwanda to get a point in South Africa

una sha wan choke people with this motivational topic…anyways i believe too sha

Tessyy1701:
You're right but they won't be the want bantering us but ourselves. The we told you guys FC... They will surely come up with we told you sacking Rhor was the biggest football mistake of this century 😁😁

Sacking Rohr was not the problem, the problem is with NFF, you dont sack coaches that has full knowledge of his team amidst the heat of qualifiers, at that period even a guardiola cant save us….if i were Eguavoen or any other coach, i wont take up that job, cos its just a big set up….
An upcoming play-off derby match looming and then you sacked a coach that has been handling the team for the past 6years to employ a miracle worker?
even if the coach na Eba….u for Just leave am to sink totally or save the team

zuchyblink:
We Told You Guys FC which I am the manager.
Sacking Rohr was a very big mistake. You sacked Rohr and replace him with downgrades. Not Herve Renard not Hugo Brood but who? Eguaveon 😂😂

im not advocating for Rohr to be left alone, but NFF for let am finish that WCQ of 2022, and maybe sack him after we qualify….Rohr set up wey we all know that year go defend home and away against Ghana…and probably stretch the game to penalty shootout…bringing in Eguavoen was so so sudden meehn

lbrichman2:
Isn't it shocking that coach after coach has failed to give Onyedika regular minutes?
Abi is there something they see that we are not seeing?

Was this not the same Onyedika that balled last night?
Curious!!

Finidi wey manage give am starting berth them still flog us, and he scored in that 2-1 to Benin ooo

realpoacher:
I said this here before the Match against SA.

Yet I see you all salivating about the potential 3 points deductions from SA. But you all have refused to see that our SE will still lose our of Qualification whether those 3 points are deducted or not.

1. Our players can't trap balls

2. They can't run

3. No creativity from the middle, no ball carriers in the team, no purposeful intent from the middle.

4. The players don't believe in themselves {except Osimehn and more recently Bassey} to be winners, warriors or Super Eagles of Old.

5. Moses will play rubbish 9 times out of 10

6. Iwobi will pass sideways all day

The way Bassey {a defender} charged at the ball from defense to Attack before scoring that Equalizer.

If 60% of our boys put the same energy, effort and passion like Osimehn do and as Bassey did against SA, we will currently be topping our group by a wide Margin.

We knew the situation we were in before the last two games yet we could only muster a measly 1-0 win at home to Rwanda and 1-1 draw with SA.

If we were a serious side, we should have beaten Rwanda 3-0 here and beat SA 0-2 with all their politics away to send a strong signal that we mean business now after our initial faulty start.

Aiyegbeni is right, so long as we lack creativity and ball carriers in the middle, we will suffer to score goals. The midfield is the engine room of a team, we can't over-emphasize this point.

The fulcrum of any team is your midfield, it links your defense to Attack.

Let's ask ourselves pertinent questions: How many chances has Ndidi, frank Onyenka, iwobi and all others that have played in that midfield for the last 5 years have created altogether?... Someone please tell me How many?

Heck, how many goals have our midfielders scored for us within the same number of years?

They can't score, yet they can't even create chances, and you said we as fans should be hopeful? ... Hopeful for what exactly?

How many of our midfielders can score the goal Cole Palmer scored yesterday against Bayern?.... The answer is NONE!!!!

The only person we can play in that midfield right now that will give us a little spark of creativity is Chukwueze. I say give Chukwueze the number 10 jersey now, and watch Magic. I say give it to him now,No delay

Throw in Uche besides him and see our midfield come alive. Uche can be subbed for Iwobi and vice versa.

Moses Simon should sit his ass out on the bench until we need a Winger cum defender to seal a lead.

We have no business playing a double 4 against African minnows, these are teams we should be using for stat padding.

Send a team Psychologist that knows his onions to the team to wake their mentality from slumber.

See how Senegal beat Congo DR, that's how you know a big boi when you see one. Let's tell ourselves the truth and shame the devil for once.

Enough of all this window dressing we are doing.

We will beat Lesotho this time around wether we can trap ball or not…..Bro SA is a stronger team compare to DRC currently oo, they were even leading senegal 2-0 before senegal turned the game to win 2-3….
My fear with this Eric Chelle record since taking of super eagles is my concern sha…”win-one,draw-one” record

June window
Rwa 0-2 Nig
Nig 1-1 Zim

July window
Nig 2-1 Gha
Nig 2-2 Jam


September window
Nig 1-0 Rwa
SA 1-1 Nig


October window🥶🥶
Nigeria Beat Lesotho
Nigeria Draw Benin

🤣🤣Opari

solonnachi:
If FIFA collects three points from South Africa;
Rwanda v Benin will be a do or die affair
Rwanda v South Africa will be crazy
Nigeria v Benin will be like a cup final

If FIFA remove that 3points Zim help us hold SA to a draw and Chelle no fit beat Lesotho, make Chelle just resign and book flight to Mali straight 🤣🤣…Becos Gernot Rohr in 2021 took Super eagles away to Lesotho and flog them
2-4(Chukwueze,Osimhen,Iwobi) all scored in that match

elyte89:
Finally

omo if them deduct that 3point and SA drops to 14pts it will hand a huge lifeline to:
-Benin to win Rwanda next month and move to 17pts to top the group
-Rwanda to beat Benin and move to 14pts leveling with Benin
- Nigeria to beat Lesotho and move to 14pts to level up with Rwanda(if they win Benin)….

Make fifa make this drama happen, if we must jah,let it be on match day 10🤣🤣

QueenJazz:
Even if those points are docked by FIFA, then what? At this stage, how does it benefit us? Are we seriously expecting South Africa to lose to either Rwanda or Zimbabwe?

This 3-point deduction stuff was more interesting when we hadn't played SA yet and there was a chance we would actually win all out remaining matches. Right now I find it hard to be excited about it. Should they deduct it? Obviously yes, if they don't want to appear shady and commit robbery in broad daylight. But how does it affect us at this point? How does it salvage our position?

On an unrelated note, please who the heck is Abdullahi Shitu that is supposedly from Man City playing for us in the upcoming U-20 world cup? Never heard of him. Plus, he's non-existent on Google apart from recent news reports of the Flying Eagles list. Which Man City is he playing for? Is it the one in England or somewhere else?

it doesn’t need to affect us, so long Benin will benefit and likely qualify im fine…if they deduct that 3point they will fall back to 14pts and 5goals…they are playing Zimbabwe in Botswana and later facing a stubborn Rwanda…i see a 4point accumulation for them here or even less
SA 17 - 3pts (14pts +5goals) winning or drawing Zim
Ben 14pts +4goals(next win to take them to 17pts
Nig 11pts + 2goals (next win take us to 14pts)
Rwa 11pts (next win likely to take them to 14pts)

omo no go whine that 3points deduction oooo….if it dares happen🤣🤣….SA will be in hot seat

if it dares happen….walai Rwanda will fight their lives🤣🤣

ok lets do a bias prediction for next game
Rwa v Ben(Rwa to win takes them on 14pts level with benin)

Les vs Nig (Nigeria to win takes us to 14pts level with Benin and Rwanda)

Zim v SA (Zim to draw or do a shocking win🤣🤣 and leaves SA on 14pts after they must have deducted them that 3pts)

Moving to the last game 10 everyone will now be on
SA 14pts
Nig 14pts
Ben 14pts
Rwa 14pts
And you say Rwanda no go wan kpai themselves 🤣🤣

omo forget ooo that 3 points can play a huge huge huge role ooo🤣🤣

mostob:

Ok ok so we are weak, and then drawing against Lesotho, Zimbabwe…spain,England,Germany all have Good leagues im sure they will hammer this poor Nigerian team….so why are the Giant of African league struggling to beat a weak Nigeria…atleast Benin beat us when we are weak with their poor league

KingCold:
it's not like you'll do anything better with this average eagles team yourselves. I mean, you struggle against the likes of Rwanda and Lesotho, what are the chances you'll beat Serbia or Denmark?

see the country names you are calling🤣
Can you ur banana banana beat the following countries that we won or drew with at the world cup level…i mean teams in their prime
- Nig 2-0 Iceland(A red hot Icelandic team coming off Euro 2016 that defeated England and was eliminated at the quarterfinals by France)
- A red hot spanish team Nig 3-2Spain
- You are mentioning Serbia, but we beat their equivalent Bosnia 1-0
Baba go and qualify to round 16 before we start to talk about your ekuke kiti-kata banana banana team….atleast 3round16 reach is not beans

mank1234:
Africa will present only one team not 4.
Those 4 will play semi final and final to determine who rep Africa.

yea i know, im just imagining if any one of them qualifies and get such fixtures

Lionessza6:
LMAO. Am I speaking to the same Nigerians whose team filled with international superstars failed to beat the likes of Zim....and you thought you'd dominate our group?

oga keep quiet abeg🤣🤣….playing home and away match in front of your intimidating fans🤣🤣🤣, when you now meet the superstars on a neutral ground, your mumu resurfaces again🤣🤣🤣…go and donate point like your fellow Curacao 🇨🇼 thats on the brink of qualification 🤣🤣

Dannyxy:
it will.. it has happened before, make una dey do research na.

So how is fifa going to be fair to the second team of that group? Where is the fair play if they did not get a chance, the last team of every group would have their point deducted from the second placed team, then we would have the real points. Let’s just hope we win our last two games , and Zimbabwe finish last, Nigeria goes to the play offs.

We fans and NFF need to be sharp in identifying this things, I am grateful to this technical fans that are always picking this things, they are the real MVP if we qualify. That’s why we have technical teams, but apparently the technical team of NFF don’t know their jobs, pick up this things.

im just so irritated at many people here who has this mumu emotion of “because we started poorly then we dont deserve the world cup”

abeg make i hear word biko, today CIV has same afcon trophy with us, they started very very poorly and won the afcon same with Portugal winning 2016 Euro….
OGA HEAR ME AND HEAR ME CLEARLY, until there is no more option to exploit we will still keep pushing through, if there is any loop hole that is calculate-able to enable us qualify then we must explore it…
1. FIFA has to be fair to do the needful
2. Tanzania deserve fairness to compete with other second best teams

small thing we go start dey hear
“let us forget about tue world cup yen yen yen….
New caledonia
Curacao
Bolivia
and every teams wants to be at the world cup, we too wanna be there,wether by onfield qualification or off-field qualification….
make anyone wey don lost hope rest, abeg
SA
NIG
BEN
RWA
all can still qualify as group leader…Nigeria just show Rwanda how to play SA in their home(Fight for everyball and give yourselves blow on the pitch)

Rwanda will be fancying their chances to shock SA….2 games is enough to change a direction

GMBOFASIA:
Even if Nigeria are in play off with team like Comoros or Eritrea how sure are you we can even beat them lol

bros with the urgency we started displaying from Match day 6 to match day 8….if we continue that rush of blood, we will displace any team in the play off….our poor start is really rubbing on our current resilience to qualify….we will beat all those teams in play off if we qualify.
if we dare qualify to play off then just know that football gods is with 9ja to go to the world cup
