This is getting out of hand sha. That's how these boys will just be taking the shine of more talented boys from Hale End.

I'm gutted about the fact that Marquinhos really took Duberry spot last season. Europa exposure and league experience Duberry would have gotten was given to Marquinhos . Maybe buy now we wouldn't be looking at Saka replacement.

Jodera:
This was your first post when you quoted me when I voiced my opinion against Havertz signing. Read carefully your bolded



This was my reply to you. Emphasis on the bolded.



Then this is you confirming to that my previous post that Havertz is Indeed better than ESR in that Midfield.





We even argued this your opinion on and on but I'll stop here. In one of your posts also, you said you'll not be happy if he played as a striker



Isn't it surprising you're now claiming otherwise?

I no wan drag you but make you just try deh stay one place make we know your stand, so that we fit accord you your W accordingly and if there's an L, we fit give you accordingly. This your double takes fit confuse thunder. Same thing you did with Balogun and Zinny.

I no want the one wey if Havertz shines for Midfield, you go wan dey look for W from us

codemaniacs:
Haaland, Osimhen, Mbappe, Kane don't have tricks.

They just have speed, positioning and accuracy.

That's what makes a striker in 2023.

That's what Oshoala and Ajakaye have in common.

Nigerians tend to be sentimental when it comes to youth players.. I recall seeing comments about the last batch of u-17 boys being better than the super eagles because they played some food football... Lol

Ajakiaye and Flourish are talented players that still need time to develop. Especially with respect to their decision making on the ball .. if there's any player in the cadet team I would pick aside the trio of Abiodun, Imuran and Demehin, it would be Esther Onyenezide because of her creativity...

Roland17:
At this point we may as well move our academy to Brazil. Edu needs to take it easy with the transfers from Brazil. Make we look another place na, since our academy players are not good enough for the first team

daveP:
All fine. But the reality is even of we see players talented than the ones I've been hammering, that mentality is still there. We know it is a serious Nigerian thing. We all know. Shebi this man even fought to include her name, else she won't be here. But we move. We have to drop that mentality across all out teams. It's not helping. The excuse given to back it up as well.


Sidenote: so our world cup Goals vs conceded is triple inferior? If 63 is GA and -43 is GD......that means na only 20goals we don score in 8Appearances(32years)!!!


Yeh!!! My chest!!!!!


Big inference then.

charlesemeka85:
Onana reached the CL semi finals with Ajax, then reached the CL finals with Inter and now I don’t think I have to tell you what will happen next

daveP:
Simple! Inclusion. That's all. It will be highly delusional of me to want them to be outright starters at this World cup even if that is not such a big deal seeing the number of starters from age grade players so far. I'm even taking this stance more cos of that time excuse we've been using since 18th century. Sometimes, these newbies have better confidence than some starters.(Abiodun has proven that)


But inclusion. They were supposed to be here. But as i said, selection headache btw two elephants can't make them considered one bit.

daveP:
I don't care what anyone says but I'm very much opposed to Team "let them wait for their time"

We can't even carry the best players of the u17 and u20 world cup like countries that participated in. Yeah, Imuran and Demehin dey but... Forwards?? None!! Well, I'm not pretending we had a selection brouhaha, but we meuve.

Bannedlargedx2:
I believe that, it was that Chukwueze performance vs Real Madrid that finally convinced the world to take notice of him. This is why playing at big leagues or performing in big games cannot be underestimated

Deltamani:
This Irish team thuo

potland:
this can never happen in men's football. Messi was over 18 when he played in 2006

lovewins:
I don't shy away from arguments. I think they improve this space and we tend to learn a lot from one another in the process. I'm also not afraid to be wrong (been wrong a few times), especially when I'm confronted with superior argument. I just try to learn from them. Some people however just argue for argument sake. I give the benefit of doubt sha, but after a while I just stop engaging.

charlesemeka85:
he wants to leave this season but can’t and knows that with the demands of Napoli from clubs interested in him it may be difficult for him to leave soon if a new buyout clause isn’t agreed btw him and the club

2023/24 season will be osimhen’s last in Italy and he’s likely destination will be the epl

Odunayaw:
Ruin? Not at all

The EPL can also be accused of doing the same thing they're doing at the turn of the 21st century

Any player that is not interested in competition, fame and glory can go to Saudi.

Let football return to its pure roots. I don tire

charlesemeka85:
Osimehn demands 8m euros a year and a buyout clause of 120m in the new contract offered by Napoli while the club is proposing a year salary package of 7m euros

jihday:
very hilarious , I think they took the video down https://twitter.com/eurofootcom/status/1683086468619575298?s=46&t=Wic7bZ22o0NPuuEZ-cpktA[/quote]That's creativity gone wrong...

lovewins:
Please don't be unreasonable. Age was never the crux of argument. No one said Ajakaye or Flourish shouldn't play with the falcons because of their age. For God's sake that is t the point and no one gives a damn about how old you are as long as you can deliver.

You don't need to reference this as example. Historically, the super falcons is replete with examples of very young players who featured for the team at the world stage. Debbie and Rofiat are both 19yrs. Okobi was 16/17 when she played her first WAFCON. Same can be said about Asisat, Ajibade Nnadozie who were very young when they got their first stint with the national team. Their age again isn't the point.

Stick to the crux of th argument. The aforementioned players are currently in the team cause they were deemed good enough to play top flight football.

codemaniacs:
come and see 16 years old playing over 80minutes at the 2023 Women World Cup. lovewins Danielnino00 Kibbs mostob ...

daveP:
Was just about to talk about this. I agree that it is hibernating for now. I don't want to use Dead. 11 shots and 1 on target is not good for any top team at the World Cup....


See how the Germans played...


We are yet to set up in such a way as to isolate the extra man/woman. Madrid and Man City do this well for the Men's team. Lyon, Wolfsburg and Arsenal do it perfectly well for the women's team. A midfield of Ucheibe and Ayinde would help. But our full backs need to go all wing backs to stretch any opponent. I hope we replicate something like this. All these longballs from Nnadozie is to nobody's advantage. Na demehin wey dey fear pass be the weak link for this setup

Ppogbae:
Jesu! Morrocco are seriously getting spanked! I thought they were much better than this??

Bannedlargedx2:
Your best winger won’t make AFCON squad because he signed for a Saudi team in the space of 3 months? Ok o. So, if osimehn signs for a saudi team, he won’t make the AFCON squad in November

codemaniacs:
The same Sebastian was the reason the U20 didn't get to the semi-final because she wanted to dribble every defender instead of passing into the box.

Anytime Ajakaye was at the wings she always crosses or passes the ball into the box.

Sebastian also falls down a lot and in the world cup the referees won't blow their whistle for her.

Ajakaye is more of a team player than Sebastian. Ajakaye will press, close gaps, run to the wings and pass or cross which can also give the SF corner kicks.

While Sebastian will run to the wings and try to drive into the box with step-overs or pace to try and score on her own and she can also win the SF penalties if the referees are fare.

Oshoala was fouled and the referee didn't call it a foul.

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 5:35am On Jul 21
FIFA and their implicit RACISM.
The girl that stumped on Ohale should have been redcarded. That stump was so late, it came in yesterday.
But because she was white, not even a yellow card.

I knew there was a racist intent when there was NO African on the VAR team. And I was proven right.
CAF must insist on having an African on the VAR team whenever an African team plays.
This is not even fully anymore.

Racist bastards!


Your intellectual dishonesty is very nauseating!! and one more thing, try not being obtuse!

Is it Anthony or we are trying a different tactic?
