E don do,my people my people in Okorocha's voice

Martz101:
your first paragraph is not right, you have barely watch lokosa play, how do you know his not better than kayode.

I want to believe in Rohr and his decision not because i love all his decision but because is his job and he will take responsibility of it and we truly can't change nothing. all we need to do now is support them .

Kayode has been assessed more than once and going by Rohr body language he (Kayode) didnt measure up. Enough with this Kayode craze,its not like he is so outstanding.

TheSuperNerd:
Mikel on Rohr, the friendlies and the team's underdog status


“With due respect to the other coaches who I have had the priviledge of working under, Gernot Rohr has had the most profound impact on the team. He’s brought a new work ethic, discipline and positive energy and a new way of doing things professionally,” Tianjin Teda star Mikel said.

“I missed the last two friendly games due to visa issues but I’m here now and the preparation is in top gear,” Mikel added.

“We lost against Serbia due to some mistakes but they are not major things that cannot be rectified. We are working on them and I’m sure this team will come out stronger. I’m optimistic about this team and I know we will do well at the World Cup. We just have to be focused and disciplined. We have to go in as underdogs but we must prove that we are as good as any team on the day.”

Rohr doesnt have that typical Nigerian arrogance found in most of our coaches. Its obvious he is very wise with his choice of words,body language and players management. Everything nobi gragra

Tbaba, go sleep naa....you be robot?

Mujtahida:
Is it not when the person is a thief that your calling him a thief will be justified. Can you prove beyond reasonable doubt that forgiveness is a tribalist?

Are you a white hating blackman? Surely you know your views can be seen in that light. Again I ask you:are you a white hating blackman? Certainly if you are not, then forgiveness is not. If you are, then you guys are even cos hatred in any form is a specie of tribalism. You can justify your views, sure forgiveness can also justify his.

I will misyarn ooo cos I know - yes I know it to my bones- that we all have this tribalism thing in us. No be Nigerians we be? 'I am not tribal, I am not tribal' but give a Nigerian a position and watch him fill the place with his brothers. That's just how we are.

If you guys are determined to pin the tag on him, I can't help the situation but none of us is free from what is being pinned on forgiveness.

And sometimes it becomes easier to scream tribalist, tribalist than to intelligently tackle his points.

Honestly if I'm forgiveness, I will even accept the tag. Cos the way to take the sting out of such word is to accept it.

You are a tribalist
Yes I am. And so what?
You, are you not a tribalist?

You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?
Romans 1:22

I say let's quit this accusations.

No need for the gospel because I dont know how long you have been here but your guy has openly accused a certain region of the country of hijacking the Super Eagles and favoring their village people...Dude cried nepotism because his village people didnt dominate the Super Eagles.

We all have flaws but a man without self control is unfit for the society. People should keep somethings to themselves.

Mujtahida:
One thing I know is that if a man is persistent in accusing another of tribalism that's classic projection:accusing another of what you are guilty of.

tribalist usually find the tribalism of another man disturbing.

Let's quit all this accusations. Forgiveness is no tribalist in the sense of hating other tribes. I find the attempt to pin this tag on him too low. I know He's an eccentric kinda person. I have also accused him of tribalism but if you read him carefully all he wants is for Kayode to be given a chance just as Iheanacho has been given a chance.

If you have tribalism in your heart you'd twist that and it comes out like forgiveness is being tribal. you love Iheanacho but call another man's love for Kayode tribalism. Abeggi

And ultimately none of us is free from this tribalism thing. None of us! Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

Enough of the accusations. It might gain you likes but you can't eat garri with it.

So, if I called you a thief because you stole and I keep repeating it that automatically makes me a thief.....No go miss yarn, my guy.

Mujtahida:
No Ooooo nooo please. I don't think he meant it the way you looking at it. If he used that example, he used it but to say he meant to ridicule the easterners is a stretch. Moreover he even started by talking about colonialism.

That guy doesnt believe in the unity of Africa unity, one bit...He is a perpetual tribalist that hates the Igbo ethnic and I know him from the politics section.

edi287:
Racist or they just have a problem with poor people?

Did you get my point or not ? Just because he mentioned few people who are not from his village does not exonerate him from tribalism

edi287:
Is Joel Obi his brother? When he was calling for his inclusion in the team, why didn't you call him a tribalist?
Is Ebuehi his brother?
Is Josh Onomah his brother?
Is Fred Oyedinma his brother?
Is Mikel Agu his brother??
When he was saying Vic Moses can be as good as Salah under a coach like Klopp, why didn't you call him a tribalist??
If you haven't been here long enough, don't say something you're not certain of. It's talk like this that actually spoils the thread.

Some of the most racist insurance firms in America still hires few black people. You know ?

Joebie:
We actually have football news. Let me get on my lappy

I feel you but I hope somethings are kept away from this thread to maintain the sacredness of it.

By the way, why do we need to take Simon to the world cup when Simmy is there and gives us more option in the attack.....Etebor, Simon and Agu should be dropped

forgiveness:
But the tools used by this master-minders are the politicians.

I got to know about it when I listened to the confession of a French man that stated France involvement in all the French colonies. He even went further to reveal how the French government secretly trained and armed Biafran soldiers which the French government denied as at then even ttill date.

When asked the reason behind their interest, he plainly said 'OIL' and categorically stated that they were not after the well being or separation of Biafra.

So, how do we recreat ourselves in a new light without the tools?

Why didnt you use the Nigerian government who were fully backed by the Britain to see that their artificially manufactured country stay intact to protect their interest. You had to use Biafra to ridicule the easterners but we all know how the war started way before France sent few items to assist an almost decimated people. Nigga, watch the next thing you type here and I am being civil for the last time!

tbaba1234:
Victor Moses's rest is understandable. If i was the coach, i'd do the same. He should get some needed rest and come in refreshed. He is an important player for the team.

Nnaa, stop defending that akpuda! Victor Moses is not a world class player and his shortcomings should not be tolerated. Is it because Onyekuru is injured ? Onyekuru and Simon can play everything VicMo has to play and still be as wasteful as him.

safarigirl:
lol. Na joke abeg

I am cool with Joebie,all day! However, I was amused at his thoughts.

safarigirl:
Oh God! How are you guys failing this hard to decode someone's meaning?

See you, now, you just ranted for nothing. Joebie did not mean that comment in a tribal way. He meant it in the sense that Omanbala is acting FAMILIAR towards C Nwakali, and that familiarity could mean that his praises for Nwakali might not be coming from a pure place. That was why he used Komekn and Tammy (Tega) Abraham, as an example.

Una no go ask pesin to clarify, he was even teasing Omanbala, no be say he carry am for head like you.

The bolded is highly unnecessary and unfounded. Sheesh!

Until this post I didnt understand what Joebie was driving at...smh

@ Joebie , I dont roll like that. I cant never root for an unqualified candidate just because he is my own person. Is it not what is holding Nigeria from progress ?

Joebie:
ok I know say na ur people but for the forum sake, Chidiebere/Ebere.

The other day I questioned Komekn the same way as regards “Tega”. Let’s stop accusing Forgiveness o.

I dont know how Forgiveness bu complete AKPAMU take enter this matter.

Joebie:
It’s Chidiebere..
Don’t let me suspect u o. U don’t need to teach me Igbo. Let’s use their conventional names

Ebele is a shorter and northern variant of the same name...My younger sisters name is Chidiebele but we call her Ebele for short. I dont know where you are getting at but I am interested to know

Joebie:
Why do u call him Ebele?

Chidiebele/Ebere/Ebele all mean same thing, God is merciful.

lexyman:
just have this at the back of your mind , that team can play well without Moses .. we will enjoy free flow footie. if Icon79 like make him hit him head for wall .... we need Obi more than Obi need us ... i am yet to see another indispensable player

Whenever Victor Moses is in the team I feel like he is holding us back from playing free flowing football. I am not a big fan of his style...Always dribbling into crowd of people and will most likely lose the ball

lexyman:
Ighalo has a lot of dribbling ability ... have you forgottten what he did to Stones of Everton , when Mourinho was seriously eyeing him ?

I dont know why people keep questioning Ighalo dribbling ability. That guy is the most sleek forward in that team...EOD

safarigirl:
by next year, we will be discussing these replacements. For now, na Moses be Baba.

You cant possibly think I was pushing to have Moses replaced? But ,chill on the "baba".

Safari, are you by any chance bipolar ? Because your mood swing is remarkable ...

asha80:
akuko

Kedu udi akuko m' na ako ?

Cant you see the class with which Ebele Nwakali and his brother dribble players? They dribble and release the ball unlike Moses.

Give me a team that will have Onyekuru, Chukwueze, Ebele Nwakali, Kelechi Nwakali, Iwobi, Kelechi , Orji Okonkwo, Musa Muhamed, Ebube/Ikuowen, Kingsley Michael and see correct samba on display

elyte89:
Baba no start,wetin we no fit finish o

Moses is important to d team

I am not saying he is not important but we can do better....With the way things are going I see a lot of youngsters who can displace him in no time...Chukwueze, Onyekuru, Ebere Nwakali are all capable of dribbling

Victor Moses is taking Nigeria for a ride....A reformed Onyekuru will do a better job and Chidiebere Nwakali can even dribble better than Victor Moses. I saw flashes of what Ebere Nwakali can do against Athletico.

kentebemoney:
1.Ebube duru

2.ikouwen utin

3.jonathan zikiye

these guys are the best left back in the league

After watching the game once more I am beginning to like Ikuowen Utin more. Dude is a mad baller but defensively I dont know how good he is.

How you wan take drop fit and sharp Joel Obi....I just dey laugh. Joel is definitely going to the world cup.

TheSuperNerd:
Mikel Obi had some time with the Nigerian fans on twitter... just finished watching all his clips in answer to some of the many questions Nigerians asked him.

A true captain indeed. Enjoyed every bit of it.

#SoarSuperEagles

Nnaa, post it here ?

Khadiri Somadi looks like a street agbero,like he just finished smoking a budda joint....lol

ChrisKels:
Ur contributions these days have been so interesting because they come with facts and u seem to be a realist and a positive character.

I'm becoming a fan even though u once threatened to knack me down with ur ofor

LMAO...Truly, brother I am a man of justice. I have no intention in my heart to hurt my fellow human being . Dude, I am 37yrs of age and I am done with trying to impress some unknown faces. I say it like it is. I am a true black African and I am too deep in African matters to dey form Yankee. Being an African is what gives me pride as a living soul, nothing more...I used to involve in Nairalands tribalism but I have seen the light, Yoruba nor Housa is not my problem because they are our brothers but Oyibo did some serious job in our mind

Mujtahida:
Leadership is not necessarily about building infrastructure. It's about uplifting the consciousness of your people, making them see themselves in a great light, birthing a resurgent dream in their hearts. As in the first responsibility of a good leader is to deliver the Word. That's why I hate all these our transmission transmitted leaders. Take away paper from their hands, come hear absolute rubbish wey go dey comot from their mouth. No word, no dream.

A people that know their history and respect their land will never be lost....Look at Israel and their battle to reclaim what they assume was their land...I said assume because I have an opinion. If there is anything we should be taking from the white man its how they love, respect and guard their history which dictates how they see themselves. Me and my wife are from the same town, I wasnt born there but I am more proud and informed about our town than my wife and that gives me an upper hand in family and community matters.


A little white girl at dentist office told her mother "I want her hair" and she was referring to my daughters hair....The only people who think black hair is ugly are black women

ChrisKels:
Hmm arusi okija na fact u talk here. ��

I am too original to dey yarn dust

Humility017:
bros abeg may we gently talk this one...
you mean agu can pass the ball better than nwakali....?
I bet you had it been agu played yesterday he won't have fair better than nwakali.
I will really want nwakali to get same few minutes agu have got in the GWG...you will see the difference....
yesterday nwakali made me feel Mikel"a presence on that pitch.. his ball control and killer passes was top notch
agu and co DM and sometimes play CM too but nwakali is an AM.

I didnt compare his passing game to Nwakali but he is definitely ahead of Nwakali in the DM position. Nwakali is a bigger talent but Agu has more experience
