that lady called joy bokiri was so good in that final match. That's the only match have seen her play sha.

When is the Cyprus tournament.

I think Bokiri can be tried in the central midfield role that Chikwelu needs resting. She is young, and highly skillful, with good strength. It will be good for the coach to try her against teams like Austria. She will do very well and may make the team.

BHTs probably licking their lips instead of trembling. A blitzkrieg attack on a few bases can capture these beauties. The army better start massive aggressive patrols to counter these base attacks.

mostob:
I will also love to see Sophia Omidiji in GWG .

I dont think Sophia will be invited to the team anytime soon. The coach has watched her train and long made his decisions about her before the France friendly.
I think Joy Bokiri should be taken to the Cyprus cup. She looks in good form as she led Bayelsa to win the Super 4 yesterday.

See politics o. Aisha Yesufu who has been throwing punches wildly at Buhari like an uncouth lady just because of ACPN must feel let down now. Nigerian politics is dirtier than the dirtiest place on earth.

DerideGull:
I guess she wore #19 jersey in China game. I wondered why the coach played her as defensive midfielder. She showed the skills of a modern soccer; very fluid, strong and fast with the ball.

I understand why you feel that way sir. We hardly attacked the Chinese. Though she was playing mostly around the midfield area but she is one of the 2 strikers we played in that match. Very hard working.

Stephandeswardt:
But why the reduction in the manpower and equipment of the recent manpower attacks? We have seem Bh come with as many 10 technicals with AAA guns and hundreds of foot soldiers......these numbers are fewer than they would normally be.

Like others have alluded to, this is a classic probing attack. They will come back with 20 or so technicals. The base needs to either reinforce its defences or completely change it to something more mobile. The fact that it worked today doesnt mean it will work next time.
I'm praying they learn from experience.

Easier said than done. Nothing is predictable in life. This is coming from an over 30s family man.

Today, the girls scored from open play after over 270 minutes. Full match vs China:

Your prediction did come to pass, but I don't think Romania is a top female football Nation, at least we got a moral boosting win against them


You have a good knowledge of this team, I'll like to read ur analysis on the next four nation competition.

Thank you sir. Romania is not a top footballing nation but they are ranked higher than Nigeria. This is because UEFA gets a massive advantage in FIFA rankings, especially in women football. I think realistically, Nigeria is in top 15 teams in the world.
As for the super falcons, I think they are improving every match, and they will be difficult to beat if they keep this tempo. The team is improving alot defensively. They still have a lot of work to do on crosses and set pieces, but the team is more compact.
Offensively, the team has to improve a lot, but I think the coach is approaching it right. He is looking for good attackers and judging them all.
Today, Alice Ogede played and I doubt she will make the final cut to France. Chinasa Uchendu is already down the pecking order.
Anam Imo however, has improved a lot and I am pleasantly surprised by her. It shows the coach was right in giving her plenty opportunity. Also Ajibade is improving too.

For the Cyprus cup, I expect us to also see a compact, boring team for at least the first 2 games as the coaches try to adapt. I think the future of the team is a 4-4-2 that will accomodate Ajibade and Okobi in the attacking midfield role, while also dropping one of Oshoala, Ordega or Oparanozie.

Arna-Bjørnar FC of Norway have signed Nigerian Superfalcons Left Back

Norwegian Toppserien side Arna-Bjørnar Fotball have announced the capture of Nigeria international Ngozi Ebere.
The financial terms and duration of the contract signed by the defender have not been disclosed by Arna-Bjørnar.
The 27-year-old would have represented the Super Falcons at the four-nation tournament in China but had problems securing a visa.
Ebere was a key member of the Nigeria squad that won the 2018 Africa Women Cup of Nations and was also in the winning team of 2014 and 2016.
She began her career in Europe with Paris Saint-Germain and later represented Barcelona FA in Cyprus.
Ebere is in line to make her competitive debut for her new employer when they face Trondheims-ørn in the Toppserien on March 23.
Ifeanyi Emmanuel

This is very good. Again, this is what we get from hiring a respected European. The recommendations he will give regarding these players will be reassuring to most European clubs, especially the Nordic countries.
Ngozi Ebere is very good and I expect her to become even better.

BascoVanVeli:
If this man stays we will not win a single game at the world cup

I think he is doing OK in making our team more compact. What he's lacking is creativity, and I quite understand. He's typical Swede (like Lars Lagerback). He will make us boring going forward, but compact-ish at the back.
We need creativity in the middle and a lot of wing back overlaps. Faith Ikidi is not going to bomb forward due to her age. We need to inject fresh blood in those positions. I was impressed with the younger players today though. Anam Imo and Ihezuo. I hope we see fresher faces for the Cyprus cup. I for one would like most of the AWCON winners dropped for that tournament, especially the older ones.

I watched the full 90 minutes, and I think I saw what the coach was trying to achieve. I think Anam Imo will definitely improve. Uchendu will probably not make it to the world cup if she doesnt improve drastically. Ihezuo is a good squad player.
Thomas Dennerby is still to get the attacking groove on. He is focusing on a compact, disciplined build up, which eliminates player expression.

I think it was a good match, and the team did well. Central midfield is still a massive problem and Osas Igbinovia needs to come in. My biggest fear now is that the coach seems unwilling to try some obviously good players.
Having said that, if we play the way we did today, then we will certainly beat Romania.

Our goalie is jittery from crosses in.

that thread
Notice how we've now kitted BHTs with our body armours. NA just acting as armoury to these bastards. They come when they like to get the weapons and kill some brave soldiers join. Strike and successfully withdraw.

Watched over 6 minutes of technicals and AA guns completely uprooting the defences of the NIGERIAN BLOODY ARMY. A whole country's army being dealt a bloody nose by a rag tag army. Our leaders will never prosper for the way they misuse funds and embezzle them. Nothing stops these bases from having a T72 each with a lot of MRAPs at strategic defensive positions.

And whats the point in sitting in a position like a lame duck without situational awareness that will make 20 BHT techs to encircle a unit and completely over run it. Are we sure we know what we're doing?

Damn! I just watched the new BHT vid release. My conclusion is that we are disoriented at the frontlines. Nigerian Army are on the backfoot in a lot of these firefights.
Whatever BHTs are doing, it is working well for them. Either Buratai gets his acts together or he should be bloody sacked. These soldiers being wasted have families too now. I really hate that we have a general as the president and he is so oblivious to this failings.
Damn!!!! Our boys stood zero chance against these BHTs when they attack as swift as that. I can safely conclude that the current Army heads are clueless.

Patricia George....
The New Addition to the Superfalcons Squad from the United States of America ...
More details Coming soon

This face looks familiar now! She is the younger sister of Regina George, the 400m runner. Her dad is an ex athlete for Nigeria and I am quite thrilled she's opted to play for Nigeria, just like her sister.

I watched her few years ago when her sister gave her a shout out. One thing I know about her elder sister is high determination. Glad to see the coach invite her. I'm guessing she's a wing back, maybe to test Faith Ikidi's position?

Nairaland mods need to be extra vigilant this election season. Or is Seun getting money from selling fake news on first page? The opposite of this incidence is what happened.

Anam Imo and Amarachi Okoronkwo have both signed for Hungarian top side, Ferencvarosi Torna Club. The team is the top team in Hungary and play in the UEFA champions league.
Congratulations girls, congratulations Nasarawa ladies, who will get some extra cash from the deals. They should go to their clubs after the friendlies in China.
The faith and influence of Dennerby is paying. The ladies can only improve, although it is just one year contract to start, but the players are raw diamonds.

Nigerian Superfalcons in Camp

Very good. I have been praying for Nigeria to play Sweden in a friendly. It will be awesome.

As its season of politics, I must say I am proud of contributors to this thread who have ignored those childishly dragging politics into this thread. As it is not possible to delete the person's post, I think its best to just ignore them.
Intelligent minds on this thread who really want the best for the military, I commend you all.

Congratulations to CAF team of the year. They are fighters. Had the worst preparations but still won the cup through dogged determination. Congratulations.

No news about going to China for the invitational though.

Ambush on NA Troops ?

God will continue to protect them. It is not easy at the frontline.

New NAF video highly commendable. They were able to 'seperate the boys from the men' in the battle. Also, this video shows that BHT dont just attack with 4 or 5 technicals. They come in convoy of up to 10, if not more.
It is to NA advantage that those BHTs are coming out to attack. Opportunity to massively degrade their arsenal.

Baba is afraid of heights How does he want to complete the training course if he can't even pass basic paratroopers drill?

Dismiss the man, let him go and do a job that doesn't require crying like a baby.

He joined army for economic reasons. Some people will die to be in that position he is cowardly running away from. He should sleep 3 days in guardroom for that.

I like this thread. PDP goons and enemies of Nigeria showing their characters. This is why I can NEVER support PDP as it is now. The desperation to get power is too much. They dont mind burning down the whole country. Idiots rubbishing the military as if they have another army to protect them.
Every sensible country supports its military in times like this, but no. Children of hate must always hate.
4 years of hate must have had its toll on you lots. From Orubebe to IPOB, to restructuring, now to Abiku. The only sad part is that you're just starting. Buhari will get his mandate and rule for 4 years God willing. Nigerian Army will be victorious.

......... .. Aren't you ashamed of this jubril buhari?

I'm ashamed of the educational system that failed you to believe such nonsense.

For idiots dragging Buhari into this, don't kill yourselves before your time. The army has a problem with dailytrust publishing it's planned offensive.
The media has to help the army in times like this. They didn't have to publish the army's strategies even if they got inside information.
Some soldiers actually die from sabotage acts like this.

As I was reading through this poorly written propaganda, I was expecting to start reading capital projects. Rather, I met innuendos and vague conclusions. Your brother failed class many times and a relative gave birth thanks to a bill Saraki signed. At that point, I knew Saraki was going to have problem convincing Kwarans.
I expected you to compare Saraki to Tinubu in terms of physical development of the state. For a man like Saraki, I think his greed has caught up with him. He was on top of the world because Kwarans carried him high for a long time.

Happy new year here o.
Abeg,na who and who dennerby dey take go Cyprus?

I thought they will go to China first. If they are truly going to China, then they should resume in camp latest Monday. Then they will have enough time to just bring physical fitness level to average and maybe work a few tactics before flying to China. First match is on 17th January, 12 days away.

My gut feeling is that NFF will fumble again.
