someone also said he dreamt that they beat us 2 1 yesterday on whatsapp

Eiii God

this is no more funny

You guys should stop.

I don't think there is a time Nigeria has ever failed to make the top four in AFCON. I stand to be corrected though.

minfelix:
I no remember dat one....I know say I see 82mins 2-1 for dream and na Tunisia dey lead....the dream look real I swear na vex and force I use wake up after Ndidi red card...
This is kind of dream one prays never to manifest ......I wake up dey laff

PDPGuy:
The draw for the playoff (final) round of the African World Cup qualifiers takes place at 4pm Nigerian time today.

What team would you prefer be drawn vs the SE?

My choice is DR Congo

any team.... Wait, Bayern Munich no dey there?

safarigirl:
Have you guys seen the CAF list for best players of the group stage?

There is no Nigerian player on the list sha


The beef is real

That's their problem. They can put whoever they like .... Our major concern is the trophy.

Papi85:
na so the guy go Dey sneeze any how for camp just because the way she Dey mention em name here

She should allow the guy concentrate..

safarigirl:
That's your personal headache


We are here for the Super Eagles and EVERYTHING that has to do with the Super Eagles, including our players.

If you don't like my posts, jump and pass. If I want to come here and talk about Maduka all day, I will talk about him as a Super Eagles player

No be you go tell me wetin we dey here for, when I begin dey come this thread, you were probably not even on Nairaland at all.

Discuss football and leave all these shenanigans about Maduka.

Papi85:
the guy looks don mk her cum tire

Seriously, it's getting stale....Maduka ... Maduka Everytime

safarigirl:
The only reason I posted that, is as a follow-up to what Metal said, to tease him and people that think I cannot talk about somebody without being interested in them. I literally just catch cruise on this thread, as if I am gisting with friends

If I was talking this much about Uzoho, will you think I was interested in him?

All the people that have been talking about Nwakali, are they interested in him? Abi there is a rule about which Super Eagles player we can talk about?

In fact, everyday, from today, I will talk about Maduka on this thread.

We're talking about Nwakali from football POV not something that has to do with attractiveness, physique, handsomeness or Twitter followers.

It's better you take your obsessiveness with Maduka to Twitter(his DM maybe) and stop disturbing our football atmosphere here. Whatever you're doing with his picture in the corner of your room ain't our business here madam

We're here for football only please.

Tunisia camp has been hit by massive COVID-19 (hopefully they don't infect our players).

Currently 16 players and only an assistant coach (as the coach, goal keeper coach, physiotherapist - COVID-19 positive) is travelling to Garoua for their R16 encounter.

12 players plus other back room are positive for COVID-19 and would remain in limbe (isolation) and will play no part in the game vs Nigeria.

Players making the trip to Garoua:
Ben said/ Jmal / Haddedi / Abdi / Ifa / Talbi / Rekik / Skhiri / Ben Slimane / Aidouni / Hannibal / Rafia / Sliti / Msakni / Jaziri / Khaoui.

Source: @youssefmagra on Twitter

this is scary...how possible is it for our players to play with nose mask and gloves? They should use long sleeves and wear turtle neck under their jersey for that match.
There is no assurance that none of those travelling doesn't have covid already.

Make somebody check on our Arab bredas ...wetin Dem dey play

Make Dem put Onyekuru na....

This guy's village people strong sha

Superfalcon Midfielder and her Husband Looking Hmmmmmm ���

her name please?

Judging from the comments here, Sadiq has been disappointing....

Ndidi-Iwobi-Nwakali ... The midfield I have been yearning for.

Let's go boys ..

femianski:
Pls does anyone have a link aside hesgoal.com where I can stream live AFCON matches most especially this Ghana vs comoros

try livetv.sx

Spy360:
You have made a good point here. Iheanacho actually drops behind the main striker but that is to add more bodies in the midfield typical of our unique 4-2-4 formation. Aribo who is the point of view here plays just ahead of Ndidi. Think of Okocha and Oliseh.

In a double pivot, both CMs alternate forward movements depending on what part of the pitch the ball is. Just like in Arsenal between our two CMs.

The very fact that Ndidi is not a CM nor plays as such is enough to say that Aribo does not play CM. Ndidi sits deeper unless leading the press.

Nevertheless, such tactics are difficult to pinpoint because midfield is midfield once you are inside the pitch. The differences are almost negligible.

Well ... You are right. Person fit start as a DM and spend all the duration of the match in the opponent's box. He will tell you it is the coach's instruction.

kingphilip:
Help me ask him if Rohr was Nigerian when he was starting Shehu over Aina and Ebuehi or Awaziem over them both.

Gbam! ... The guy matter tire me

safarigirl:
I was teasing, people can use otondo playfully, people use it playfully and there is no problem.

But most importantly, I do not owe you a way of expression, because once again, you neither feed me nor buy my data. You're not even a moderator here.

I can express myself however I like, as you can express yourself however you like, okay?

You should take your own advice, I dey my side na you come here dey try police me anyhow. Zukwanu ike, leave woman make woman leave you

Ok
TBH, I went back to the post and on second thought, it looked like a cruise. That's why apart from BVV, nobody agreed with your point. But the manner you insult everybody (who has contrary view to yours) here wouldn't let people know whether you're serious or just teasing. Maybe you should start adding emoji ... No be everybody Sabi your type of language.

komekn:
There has been long History of our local coaches and the NFF pursuing agendas based on conflicting interests.

It's beggars belief that Onyeka is not starting.

It makes no rational sense that Nwakali will be benching Onyeka because he is the only one that can do long ball.

Nigeria we hail thee

abeg calm down... Wait till list is out before starting your 'local coach' campaign.

safarigirl:
Na you clown pass.

When guys come here to defend players, you won't accuse them of having a crush, but I come and do the same thing and you're calling the uncle my crush, for why?

Abeg, speak your truth if you are crushing on the guy, no dey use me dey disguise

no be you dey import all his Twitter posts and media to this thread?
As for the last paragraph, I'll ignore you again

safarigirl:
I also have every right to make commentary on their votes on a public forum. Did I go to their page to harass them?

If anyone should rest here, it is clearly you, because I came to state my opinion and you jumped on it to confuse yourself.

You also have the right to comment on my posts, but what you don't have the right to do is tell me to rest, because you neither feed me nor buy my data.

We are all exercising our rights within the capacity we can. Exercise your own and allow me exercise my own, okay?

No...you were insultive...cruise or not.
Nothing bad in making commentary but you did it the wrong way.
Rest

Ethiopia was the first team to arrive Cameroon for AFCON and may be the first team to depart(if they never reach home sef) after crashing out. The sad thing is they are going home with 1 point.

Practical example of 'no be who first call police dey win case'

safarigirl:
I am using him to justify a Nigerian player.

If you're crushing on Maduka that is on you, stop using me to project your true feelings please. Take it to his DMs.

You must be a clown

safarigirl:
Exactly

I did not say it was not bias when you vote someone from your place. If you had read what I asked you to read, you would not have come to ask me this question

I stated that everyone was using their bias to vote, and it would have been nice for the Africans to use the bias for their own, not against their own

You did not read my points, or you did not understand it. Because my entire point is that everybody is biased in one way or the other.

You're the one that didn't understand.
Their bias is theirs and yours is yours. You have no right to question their vote. They have every right to vote for who they like.
Abeg rest

Spy360:
Is Ndidi a CM? No.

Aribo plays ahead of Ndidi when attacking, he only drops deeper when defending, which is normal.

The formation is exactly the same Nigeria has used over the years since 94. We never use two CMs but one AM and one DM.

Hope you know there are varieties of 4-4-2? 4-1-3-2(similar to a diamond midfield) allow a lone DM and an AM flanked by two wingers/LM & RM depending on the tactic. This is different from the one we are currently using. Aribo is not playing as an AM but as a CM. If there is any AM in that team, it will most likely be Iheanacho.

andrewbaba44:
All your wingers are the suspect apart from Simon .

No.. include Simon please. The fact is all our wingers have their own individual flaws.

safarigirl:
It is bias if you vote someone based on a personal relationship.

That is literally how bias works. He did not vote him because he was anything near the best, he voted him because they have a longstanding relationship.

but if you vote for a player based on the fact that both of you are from the same continent, it is not bias?

E go better if you take a break from football

safarigirl:
Dem say Mendy has had a shaky match, all of una wey say Okoye dey shaky, you see, it happens to the best too.

Anyway, Malawi dey press Senegal well well

Not sure I have seen Malawi's goalie in 19 minutes, but I have seen Mendy

Mendy has been struggling recently even in his club. However, we all see how good he can be on his day. Don't use Mendy's situation to justify your shaky crush

Kog45:
Kai see mature response....if na my nigger Osimehn the journalist for know wetin dey....like it seems u dey craze abi go ask ya mama for house....na joke I dey o.

you got it sir...

dkay51:
This particular one na lie

Aribo don get Ph.D in gidigbo football. Dude Don Sabi as e dey go

Uzomacharles:
To be honest
I'm 21 years now
If you read my post after now when I was mentioned by a Lady,if I'm opportuned to play for U21 I will be very happy..
I don't really wanna falsify my age tbh

I understand you. If you're 21, then the only age grade competition you're qualified for is U23. You should join a good football club around you and develop yourself. I wish you well

Spy360:
He is not playing a double pivot for Nigeria. He plays AM a no10. Ndidi plays DM. A double pivot means two CMs which we don't use.

CM is different from DM and AM. Many fooifans confuse these positions or rather style of play.

Nigeria is using 4-4-2 bro. There is no AM in our own 4-4-2. Ndidi and Aribo pivot, flanked by Chuks and Moses.
Or am I missing something?
