People noticed Yaya, but didn't post it, not because he's used to it, but because THIS IS NAIRALAND and the primary purpose is to promote NIGERIA and NIGERIANS...I'm sure the Ivorians noticed sha, you can go and find a link if they have a site

Jarus: Essien is a great guy. Majority of Ghanaian football followers are not. I remember jsut before the final of the 2008 olympics between Nigeria and Argentina, where one Ghanaian user on Ghanaweb said he would commit suicide if Nigeria won. Since that day, I stopped supproting Ghana in any competition. I supported Uruguay against then in SA 2010.

bknight: Pls someone, tell me this is photoshop

deor03: I really appreciate the maturity and civility on that Iranian blog. Points were being made with fact and references, arguments were put forward with mutual respect.

When are we going to have same here on Nairaland?

Bran: Argentina should by all means win all 3 matches
with relative easy. However this is football and
nothing should be taken for granted. Argentina
face Nigeria last and may want to rest certain
players to avoid suspensions and Nigeria can
grab their chance.
Bosnia has a big chance for the second place it
they maintain their cohesion and avoid injuries.
Bosnia is more than Dzeko as they have players
such as Lullic(one of the highest rated players of
Lazio), Pjanic(responsible for the rise of AS
Roma this season), Ibisevic and Spahic. They
also have a better defence than Nigeria. Dzeko's
lacklustre form maybe a cause for concern but
Ibisevic can bring in the goals as well. Bosnia
also have a very consistent record all wins except
for a loss against Slovakia and a draw against
Greece.
Nigeria is the main favourite and if no internal
problems will rise they will most likely will
advance. They have the most favourable
schedule; face the weakest team Iran first while
other bigger contender Bosnia will face
Argentina and most likely lose while Nigeria will
have the first 3 points in the bag and can rest
more easily. They also face Argentina as last and
may get a draw out if it because Argentina will
rest and avoid suspensions. While Bosnia has
problems with Dzeko's current form Nigeria has
it's own form problems as well while Emenike is
in good form others are not; Brown is more often
than not a bench player at Kyiv and Obinna plays
even less at Lokomotiv and Moses has little luck
at Liverpool. They do have some other luck in
that despite Chelsea's troubled form Mikel is
getting regular play time even with the heavy
competition, people may lambast him but he is a
solid player. I was kind shocked by the reaction I
read from the Nigeria camp when they saw that
they drawed Bosnia they reacted like they won
the lottery and acted as if Bosnia is a team of no
importance, really arrogant. It's also kind of
funny; if an European team responded like they
would get destroyed on the spot for being so
arrogant and condescending and probably even
called racists by the African fanbase but if an
African team does it? no worries - it's justified.
It's to hope that the Nigerian players themselves
are more professional and don't underestimate
Bosnia or else a nasty surprise will await them.
Iran has a relative comfortable draw for them,
while they are the underdogs of the group Carlos
Querioz has a gift for grinding out wins against
seemingly better opposition such as the 2 solid
wins against South Korea. Maybe some of that
magic will work against Bosnia and Nigeria. Iran
while on paper having humble players with no
real big names they do have some decent players;
Ghoochannejhad was not that impressive during
his Eredivisie time but he was a slow grower just
like Morocco's Boussoufa and he plays now at
Standard liege who are on top of their league.
Nekounam also still looks good and Jahanbakhsh
is guiding NEC out of the relegation zone in the
Eredivisie and looks to be a promising new
talent. Nevertheless the odds are stacked against
Iran.
