We should be buying established stars in a known league and known club. All these unknown "young shall grow" fit no dey work.

What's the essence of buying lokonga only to sell him for cheap after two seasons?

Lokonga was recommended sha but that no mean say no be waste of money. And the guy play well in his first couple of matches.

The 3m is loan fee. Hopefully we fit see 10m from Sevilla next summer.

Fabregas
Nasri
Rosicky
Ramsey
Wilshere
Cazrola
Ozil
Who would you like to have back at Arsenal, in their prime?

Sambi off to Sevilla. 3m loan with option to buy. The babalawo wey give this boy soap is legit.

BascoVanVeli:
So wait, u don't think she has done enough to make that team? The only reason i can understand is not putting too much on her plate. Outside of that she should definitely be on that team.

I understand we have our top 9 from the oshoala academy but 12 goals in 6 matches is 12 goals in 6 matches. Those numbers alone should guarantee her a spot.

Basco..that girl is still young. Playing U20 world cup just weeks after the U17 WC will be too much for her. BTW, scoring for U17 is different from scoring for U20. She will meet a lot of pro in the U20 tourney which may expose her inexperience. One step at a time.

Deltamani:
This players are my top5 watch out if they make the U20 Women’s World Cup team..


•• Chinyere Kalu
•• Opeyemi Ajakaye
•• Shukurat Oladipo
•• Mgbechi Anderline
•• Yina Adoo


Yina Adoo

What do you mean by 'if'? They must make the team. Sebastine too. The coach must go for a bit of experience too.

Empressbaby:
same here nothing at all

Are you sure? Abuja people are doing their AC tomorrow

Theo Walcott: "There were certain games where you couldn’t play a player like Özil, he would make things happen but only on his terms.

"It was the same in training, you wanted him on your team but only when you have the ball.

"In games where he was getting roughed up, he wasn’t interested," he told Upfront.

Ozil and soft-life football na 5 & 6.

Spy360:
I admire your confidence

You be science student and you no know the difference between stamina and weight. SMH

Theo Walcott: “The turning point for me in terms of how I viewed Mikel Arteta was an experience I had with him as a player at Arsenal.

“It was at a time when we weren’t making the top four. We had training in 30 minutes and he locked all the players in the dressing room, as if he was the manager. He was taking control of the whole space and telling us how it is. In that moment it was like he was the manager, and that was the turning point for me. That’s when I thought he could go on to be a manager.

“Arsène Wenger was waiting for us to come outside for training but we weren’t coming out because Mikel stopped the training session. He was such a strong character that even Arsène was afraid of him.”

elyte89:
It’s weird though

Very weird.

How did Slovenia (3pts) qualified ahead of Ukraine (4pts) as one of the best losers?

I made enquiry and I discovered you can't qualify if you finish 4th even if you're one of the best losers. Who made this kind of rules FFS?

Spy360:
Some times you will just type because you want to argue or what?

What is stamina without weight? And how does weight mean big?

Without weight can you have stamina?

You can just make a simple search on Google bro instead of flopping here.

The France team bus left Dortmund without Saliba yesterday. Saliba was supposed to do a doping test after the match. His team had to leave when the test was taking longer.

He is so good they had to test him several times. The Roll Royce!

oliverano:
They're very different lol

I judge players based on eye test and their stats. With that on ground, Roque is better for now.

Roque is currently clear of Guui. Roque was a starter in Brazil with Parathnes and was arguably their best player. If Barca didn't rush him here, he would've made the Brazil Copa squad. He was in top form at the time.

I like him(Guui) and wanted him to be the sub before we bought Roque that's because he has the physique/eye for goal to be a top 9 like Lewy but hasn't shown enough. With the B team(3rd division) he's a bench player. Pau Victor and Diego Percan are ahead of him but he's got more potential than both though. You'll only understand this paragraph if you follow Barca Athletic.

Guui was shuffling between juvenile A, Barca B and the Barca first team.

I have nothing against him but with Lewy and a 40m player in Roque, Guui was always going to be the third choice striker. Leaving Barca was a good choice and nothing against Chelsea but I wish he joined a team like Dortmund or Ajax for better development.

We have seen players come from another league to Barcelona and still couldn't perform.
Right now, I would place both in the same class because they have not really shown enough promise.

Guiu should have been sent on loan instead. We can't bank on the Lewa next season and when you consider our financial situation, it makes sense to cut costs as much as possible.

Spy360:
I didn't see the bolded when you posted it. Why would they not want him to gain stamina? Actually if saw that news I'd call it fake right away.

Sorry for my late reply, I was busy in the lab.

Stamina is different from weight. Benardo and Ode are not exactly big but they have stamina. It was sometimes last year when fans were saying Vieira is too lightweight.

Spy360:
Which wingers are ahead of him? Nelson? Lol

If he cannot bench Nelson he should follow your advice and f off really quick.

Saka, Jesus are ahead currently. Then when you consider the fact we're in market for another winger, you'll get his whole plight.

Jodera:
Omorr, they should just borrow Klopp halfway. Forget all my "optimism", this Southgate no deh give person hope one bit

Na just blind hope I deh cling onto now

Shebi I was telling you then.

You fit have all the ingredients in this world and still cook nonsense. Somebody will come here and be shouting coaching license. How hard is it for Southgate to find a balance for his star studded squad even with his UEFA coaching license?

mostob:
Mainoo is in... What Southgate should have done since.

O boy... Palmer for Saka

The middle will be too congested na

Jodera:
Lol @ Neville, that one na casted. Him don even calm down after that him coaching stints. Before then, na so so Cho Cho Cho, person go think say na Ferguson him be. Na wetin dem suppose deh do all of them; just give them managerial role and Dem go calm down

Meanwhile my England is playing now. Forget about Mentality for now, Tournaments football na sometimes luck and preparedness. Portugal wey win Euros 2016 been even worse pass this one .

Na knockout you go see the main England esp Kane

Knockout na different ball game o.

Mainoo is in... What Southgate should have done since.

Sunnyson8:
So in fact the French women's transfer window is just a recycling of players between OL and PSG... What happens to the likes of Paris FC, Stade de Reims, Montepiller??

Obviously feeder teams for Lyon and PSG. They will sign young players, groom them and sell them to the bigger clubs. Maybe they don't have the financial strength to compete with both teams.

oliverano:
I have no problem with Natalie and Guui leaving because we can't keep them all.

Natalia isn't better than Cubarsi or Faye. Guui for all his ability isn't better than Roque.

Lamasia will continue to Masia and will keep producing good talents to complement the first team.

My own issue is Gbeco scouting players for other teams. It's becoming a trend.

Guiu is not better than Roque? Both ain't different in my opinion.

Jodera:
Omorr, I was mad reading that stuff from Ferdinand. How can you even reason that your Country's best attacker aside Kane should be drifted to Lb because he once played there as a teenager. Na why Dem no go ever make am. See Gomez that played Lb for Liverpool this season, him no reason am, Na Saka wey play Lb over 3yrz ago him dey reason. Dem suppose ban am from punditry for that statement.

Lemme see what my England have for me tonight Sha

That was how Neville was foaming in the mouth then. Oya go coach Valencia... I don't think he spent up to a month sef. Most of these England legends are overhyped. They're just lucky their country is the home of biggest football league. Forget England bro... Permit me to say they lack mentality too.

Jodera:
Lol...
Really cool mentality. No shades mentality. Journalist really wants to jam his head with McClean in order to generate buzz/headlines. I'm glad he was wise enough not to fall for their cheap trap.
And that captaincy, him don dey eye am. In his interview this season, he was really vocal about it

He is a captain material. He possesses everything you would want in a captain.

Southgate sha... Wetin no dey work, you no gree change am.

Jodera:
Read it ystdy and it was really classy from Rice.

This is someone who is a leader and is not really driven by emotions. My respect for him was too notch here after reading this.

That's some mentality there. Won't be long before we start seeing him with an armband.

Jodera:
Mostob, did you read that one that Ferdinand said that Saka should play Lb for England since they don't have any natural Lb presently.

No wonder most of these England guys can't make it out as a coach

I didn't bro. But I'm not really surprised. No be today Ferdinand begin speak rubbish all in the name of punditry.

Imagine moving Saka to LB. I told you England won't smell this trophy. I just want our guys back ASAP for pre season.

Declan Rice on James McClean saying he’s ‘overrated’:

“Do you know what? I played with James for Ireland for three games and I got on with him really well. I am not going to sit here and slag him off. I thought he was a really top guy. When I left Ireland to come to England, I heard a few things he was obviously not happy about. He made comments a few years ago.

“It is what it is. I am not going to sit here and say anything about him. He’s had a great career himself – I think he is coming to the end of his career now and he’s got over a hundred caps for Ireland.

“It would be easy for me to sit here and say something back to him but, like I said, we are at opposite ends of our careers now – he’s 35 and I’m 25.

“I’ve known him, I’ve played with him, he’s entitled to his opinion and I’ve had to fight a load of those opinions from other people before.”


This is classy from Rice.

Jodera:
Yeah, this past season was really a challenging one for him

Great for him to hear him scoring. Hopefully, he picks up from there.

I no deh follow Copa America again. As Messi just carry am, I no come get any favorites to support for there, at least for now.

Na Euros and England I dey chuk I for

Yea... since Odogwu don win am, the steeze of the competition don reduce. I want Argentina to win it again though and if they can't, Brazil and the Arsenal boys should win it.

Jodera:
He's not being performing at the height of the previous season he set at Reims. But he's still young tho, so there's still hope for growth and development for his game

There was a game where he missed two penalties. That really dented his confidence. I think he kinda lost his place in the starting lineup. I'm not sure.

BTW, he scored for USA in Copa America this morning

chuks404:
this thing is clear cut. Papers had it that osihmen was mentioned. Why not clarify it before the mess happened? See no matter how you see it, osimhen is the apoty, yes his responses were wrong (anger issue plus being disappointed by what the coach said) but Finidi not saying anything is a big question mark. Exonerating him for not debunking the rumours is gross imbalance. This same man asked to be allowed to support his teammates, what was the coache's response? When you treat issue,balance is important. There are deeper things in this matter we may not know. People are clamoring for white coaches, why, they respect themselves. Was it not the same Finidi that was calling a player 'oboi' (if I am not mistaken) in the video training clip that was shared here. What happened to his name It tells how these people act. No body dey feed anyone. You earn your respect. If you are a father, act like one

The bolded already put an end to the discussion. This is about Osimhen, and not Finidi.
