Education / Why Nigeria Is Not Good In Research by Philosopher1979: 9:05am On Jun 26
Nigerua is not good in resea4ch for two reasons

1. We learn through cramming. This mentality limits the understanding of whatever we learnt I school and a crammer will be limited when it comes to research
2. Bad supervisors most nigerian supervisors don't guide their students well. In some cases l, the suoervisor may not be an expert in the discipline and just treat his student in a shallow manner
There are other reasons.
Also, this is a society that dies not take research seriously.
Politics / Re: Abiola: My Dad Had 40 Wives, 103 Kids But After DNA Tests, We Reduced To 55 by Philosopher1979: 1:55pm On Jun 25
kay29000:


The man had wives and concubines up to 100...he rarely saw them, apart from his main wives, Simbiat, Kudirat, and Adebisi Oshin...the rest of the women, he saw maybe once in 3 months. I'm not supporting their alleged "cheating" ways, but it is what it is...the man was never around, and they needed attention too.

Yeah, that's what happens to the wife of men who are very successful but busy. Their success gives them little time for theor women and they think money is all a woman wants or that money will make up for their lack of presence in the home but that is dangerous.
Actually a lot if rich peoples wives commit adultery and this may be the reason for the sugar mummy issue. Its funny

Romance / Re: UBUNJA's MISEDUCATION: Men Almost Became More Beautiful Than Women by Philosopher1979: 12:49pm On Jun 23
Let's take an example from pre history. A tribe full of handsome chads with low intelligence and a tribe full of ugly but intelligent men at war.
The ugly tribe will make better weapons, have better food sources with better technology for agricultural practices and they will also have better military strategies while the Chad handsome tribe may not have even invented agriculture, have crude weapons made of wood and may have no military strategy other than running straight into battle with raw strength. Of course the intelligent tribe will win and enslave the so called chads.
I am not saying afrcans are less intelligent but at least Europeans conquered Africans because they had superior weapons. It has been mentioned that africans are generally physically stronger than Europesns but better weapons, technology and medicine nullifies all that.
So homo sapiens man the wise badly needs I telligence to even survive as a tribe.
Maybe at a point in pre-history the intelligent homo sapiens conquerdbthe strong, handsome but less intelligent humans. As a result the brautifull women will marry the intelligent men.
It's just my theory.
Intelligence is badly needed for survival. Humans may starve to death as the agricultural revolution will not take place without it. These issues need to be examined
Romance / Re: Reality Every Guy Need To Know ( STRICTLY REDPILL) ... by Philosopher1979: 11:25am On Jun 23
INTELLIGENCE AS PART OF SEXUAAL ATTRACTION

thing with you is that you underrate intelligence. Without I telligrnce the human race will die out and wontbeven survive. Intelligence results in superior technology a tribe can use to conquer other tribes. And so it's possible nature makes women attracted to ugly but intelligent men as intelligence is needed to event hunt properly and even invent agriculture for food. Its the intelligence he has that the white man is even using to dominate the world as of today.
We are called man the wise homo sapien for a reason.
For example, the person who discovered vaccination saved the lives of billions of babies. As a result. 7 billion people are still alive. I believed mother nature also has a bias for making intelligence people survive. So I think intelligence could be an attractive thing as it is linked to strength and survival

ubunja:
>>>>>statistically; women consider only 20% of men beautiful... the other 80% are ugly, but tolerable, coz they are good providers<<<<<

Lets play a little game of imagination:

lets say we make a Law that forces women to make babies ONLY with the men they find truly absolutely gorgeous and perfect; the 20% of men they deem good looking. The rest of the men will be granted recreational sex but prohibited from procreating. only the handsome of the most handsome will be allowed to pass their good looks to the next generation. and when the next generation of women mature we repeat the same process again. selecting only the most beautiful men for procreation. the next generation after that we do it all over again. Now, if we repeat this process for 100 years; what would the average man look like after that century of sexual selection? on a scale of 1 to 10? probably most men would be 6s and 7s. the majority of men wouldn't look as horrible as the majority men of today do!!
OK. lets say we repeat this process of selecting only the most beautiful of men for procreation for 1 000 years! That’s about 30 generations of women only making babies with the most beautiful men....repeating the process over and over again, always choosing the most beautiful among the most beautiful men. after those 1 000 years how will the average man look? now its safe to say women will be facing stiff competition!!! but it must be noted that as men's beauty increases the women's beauty will also be going up...but men have a huge advantage over women: testosterone, the male hormone; that grants them two privileges: they hold on to their beauty for longer and they actually get more beautiful as they age--->making men age like fine wine. Unlike the disloyal Estrogen, the female hormone; that curses women with two weaknesses: they cant hold on to their beauty for long with 25 the age the beauty begins to fade and, painfully, they get uglier as they age---->making women age like milk. so its reasonable to conclude that after 1000 years men would be beauty masterpieces, with women forced to share the "fairer sex" title equally with men.

OK. lets switch it up....lets suppose we repeat this process of only the most beautiful of the most beautiful of men procreating for 6 000 yrs!!!!!! OR, ......... since the World is 6 000 yrs old, lets say what if, from the Garden of Eden, from the very beginning of the human race; women were forced to make babies ONLY with gorgeous men... what if the Patriarchy and its formula of keeping women poor so they marry for survival never happened! what if women, from Year 0 to Year 2018; married men for their beauty like men marry women today.. HOW BEAUTIFUL WOULD MEN BE TODAY?? can you imagine it?

well, you need not imagine it. becoz right next door to our World there is another World whose females, from Year 0 to Year 2018; have been choosing males for their beauty. and it has worked wonders!!!

MALES ANIMALS ARE MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN FEMALE ANIMALS!!!

a simple day spent observing wildlife in a zoo, in a game park or on the Nature Channel on TV will make you realize something uncanny and marvelous....the males of animals are drop dead gorgeous, while the females are average!!! from the majestic Lion that outshines the lioness with his golden mane, to the peacock whose colourful tail mesmerizes the tail-less peahen; from the male deer whose huge, beautiful and highly elaborate antlers are a crown female deer don't have; to the hundreds of male bird species who are not only more colorful than their female peers but actually sing better and sweeter than the females - its a truth written in lines of fire : In Nature, The Males Own The Beauty. the Animal World next door to the Human World has things upside down.or maybe its us humans who have things upside down..

WHY MALE ANIMALS OWN THE BEAUTY.

To understand how animals live in a world where males are more attractive than females we have to first understand what beauty means to Animals as opposed to what beauty means to Humans.in humans beauty goes hand in hand with weakness; but in animals beauty goes hand in hand with strength. which appears to be God's original plan since Lucifer was not only the most beautiful angel but also the most powerful. What went wrong with humans is that the Fall of Man and the direct effect of the Patriarchy and Religion placed women firmly under men's power, effectively taking away from women the power to choose men for looks instead forcing them to choose men for bread to survive as the Patriarchy kept them poor. something unknown in the Animal Kingdom where the female is fiercely independent and is the provider rearing her offspring usually by herself; giving her the freedom to select mates for beauty. but why is beauty so important in nature?? In nature Beauty translates to Strength. Nature is about survival, and any animal that doesn't blend in among his surroundings or among the others "Stands Out" , placing himself in danger. meaning any animal that has the balls to look attractive and draw attention to himself by his looks is sending a very clear message to the predators, and especially to the females : I CAN PLAY WITH FIRE WITHOUT FEAR.I CAN BE SO COLOURFUL THAT PREDATORS CAN SPOT ME FROM A MILE AWAY, BUT GUESS WHAT? IM NOT AFRAID. COZ THEY WILL NEVER CATCH ME.IM THAT STRONG" its a claim that is always true and cant be faked.and a female animal, looking for a strong, fit sperm donor chooses this attractive and daring male, coz she wants babies that will survive. the female animal reasons: this colorful male, beautiful and able to be easily spotted by predators, must be very strong to place himself in such a dangerous situation! he's the perfect sperm donor! and hence male birds became more colorful than female birds, placing themselves in danger of being spotted miles off by predators.but the need to procreate makes the risk worth it.
(the male predators themselves had to prove their strength also through their beauty in that by being colorful and ornamented they became visible to their prey from miles away!! and their willingness to lose their camouflage and be readily visible became a demonstration that they were strong enough to catch their prey without needing to blend into their surroundings so as to get closer unseen) and hence the peacock had that bushy colorful tail that attracts danger from afar, but also makes the peahen hot for him Etc.
the female animals' selection for beauty over the thousands of years shifted beauty to the males, who had to be more and more colorful, ornamented and decorated to stand a chance to procreate. finally, what finished beauty for female animals was the females' need to blend in and camouflage from the predators as they spent long periods incubating eggs and watching over the young. and it was needful for them to lose their beauty so as not attract attention.

BEAUTY IS AN ADVERT FOR GOOD GENES
now here is something few people know...
beauty as an indicator of strength is not isolated to animals only. humans also prove the link between beauty and genetic superiority. it has been proven by research after research: beautiful people have stronger genes than ugly people.meaning beautiful people get sick less and on average live longer than ugly people. research has even proven attractive  people are less likely to get tinnitus, asthma, diabetes, and high blood pressure!! The Beauty & Strength Combo is mother-nature's ideal. but how did the humans' Beauty & Weakness Combo happen? how did beauty end up the property of the weak females?

THE PATRIARCHY STRIKES

what went wrong for humans can only be understood under the auspices of the Patriarchy...the Rule of the Father. where the animal kingdom is matriarchal and the female has complete, undisputed reproductive rights, the human kingdom is patriarchal and the male enforces his reproductive will upon the female. (a will the human female defies as soon as she gains independence as seen by the paradoxical rise of abortions as feminism gains power) . the genius of the Patriarchy was in keeping women powerless and forcing them to look to men for survival, in turn forcing them to procreate with undesirable men to survive. while that worked wonders in motivating every man, handsome and ugly, by promising them each a wife, in exchange that they built civilization and fought in wars to protect their wives and children; it hurt men in the long run becoz since women selected men for their Provider Status (and not looks) it meant, for 6 000 yrs, mainly ugly men got to make ugly babies, since the ugliest most brutal men were likely to be the conquerors and hence got the most women. these men made ugly babies that got to make ugly babies that got to make ugly babies that got to make ugly babies and so on and so on, century after century , ending in the current year 2018 with ugly men and gorgeous women. Just like the female animals controlled the Mate Selection process and selected for beauty among the males ending with the males becoming more beautiful (than the females) to qualify; so also the male humans controlled the Mate Selection process and selected for beauty among the women ending with the women becoming more beautiful (than the males) to qualify. and hence today weak women own the beauty while strong men own the ugliness; which is something not happening in nature and in Heaven.

HOW HAVE WOMEN HANDLED BEAUTY?
Badly. women clearly cant handle beauty. the billion dollar beauty & makeup industry doesn't make sense for a gender that is celebrated as the Fairer Sex! it would make sense if it was all for the uglier men. or let me put it this way: IF WOMEN ARE BEAUTIFUL AND MEN UGLY WHY DO WOMEN SPEND SO MUCH ON MAKEUP & BEAUTY PRODUCTS TO ATTRACT THESE UGLY CREATURES?? it makes zero sense. it gets even more weirder, coz the most beautiful women usually end up marrying the ugliest dudes!! . and there is more; (this one never fails to amaze me) have you seen how when gay and transsexual men put on makeup and get beauty treatments they end up looking more beautiful than women?? its crazy!!!
Looking at the long list of "body image" problems and movements besetting women: fat acceptance, body acceptance, #SaggyBoobsMatter, skin bleaching, booty enlargement, breasts enlargements etc.... so many beauty problems for a gender that claims to own beauty. the only things women seem to own are INSECURITY AND LOW SELF ESTEEM. maybe they were not meant to own the beauty in the first place, becoz its bringing them more headaches than smiles....which would make sense becoz women are afraid of a beautiful man more than men are afraid of a beautiful woman. just see how a woman blushes and sweats before a beautiful man and you'll understand. plus the totally crazy way women will throw panties at a handsome singer during a concert is proof enough women cant handle male beauty without going nuts. who remembers the old Michael Jackson concerts where he used to kiss women and they would faint!! if the man is powerful enough his beauty makes women more visually stimulated than men are visually stimulated when it comes to women.the very same thing that is happening, that has been happening, in the Animal Kingdom all along.

HOW HAVE MEN HANDLED REPRODUCTIVE POWER?

its been a freakshow. ever wondered why in nature animals have almost zero disabilities and physical disorders; but humans have disabilities of every nature everywhere that almost every hood has a disabled person? you have men to thank for that curse.mother-nature having given women wombs also gave them an eye for healthy genes. a woman will easily tell you if someone is ill or un-well while men will wait for more radical symptoms to appear before spotting an un-well individual. its why women dominate the nursing industry.they pick up on problems faster than men. its part of the mothering package.in animals this sense was improved to almost magical proportions.animals can even smell disease. here is a little fun fact to Google; dogs can smell disease in humans!!! for ages dogs have been known to sniff out cancer well before a person even suspected they had it. on top of that dogs can smell headaches, low blood pressure, TB etc. its amazing. (both dogs and cats can sense a pregnancy before a woman knows she is pregnant. they pick up on the chemicals a pregnant woman releases) . if dogs can do these things then it means animals in nature can do it. maybe even more reliably. the proof being that animals have an almost zero disability rate; a strong indicator females can steer away from diseased mates. unlike in humans were men have reproductive power and force women to mate with them regardless. meaning women have no choice in screening and separating the healthy from the unhealthy. result? all sorts of physical infirmities cast on the human race. but can women really separate the healthy from the unhealthy the way animals do? oh yes!! We may have science to thank for medical tests to confirm health or disease; but nature always had her plans that even if science didn't progress we were going to be able to detect disease. Joy Milne, for example; is a woman who can smell Parkinson's disease. maybe if women had been given the chance to fully mature this ability of smelling diseases women would be as efficient as dogs in sensing disease in people. yes, disease can be smelt. e.g Kidney disease can cause breath to smell like urine. also, there is an incurable genetic disease that cause urine to have a distinct smell. diseases and disorders can be smelled. and its curious how women, the womb owners, have a more powerful sense of smell than men. and its even more curious how a woman's sense of smell is even more sensitive/acute when she is ovulating (when a mature egg is released from the ovary ready to be fertilized) all signs that point to the fact that had women been given the chance to own and develop their sexuality and reproductive power from the start without men enforcing their will on them through the patriarchy maybe, just maybe, the freakshow of disabilities that beset humanity would not exist. men have doomed the human race with disability and disease by owning women.and worse, they have cursed themselves with ugliness in the process.

The thing with you is that you underrate intelligence. Without I telligrnce the human race will die out and wontbeven survive.

Quite annoying every season. They have experienced players in the likes of Ejike Uzoenyi, Sunday Abe, Oboabona, but still struggling. Something is wrong with the team.
These set of players may be the reason they are always struggling anyway..lol.. lets see what Beyond Limit FC will achieve with their set of young players next season, that may change the face of NPFL

Yeah beyond limit will change things a lot. Their players will play in the top 10nleagues of Europe and not Lithuania. Nff had better patronise them if they want progress for our youth and national teams. They are cutting the root of the problem. Inviting npfl players to the league will not make the league better. Following beyond limits pattern is the onlybway to sustainable growth.
And I'm not against inviting npfl players tobsuperbeagles but it won't really solve any problem. The npfl player is just the victim of a bad system so I don't blame him

He has the experience and cannot be intimidated by our star players and knows how to counter an opposing coach strategy. He has even been profiled on total football analysis.com website where his tactics are discussed.

MetalJigsaw:
"I remembered when Victor Osimhen abused Victor Ikpeba, because Ikpeba accused him of wasting the chanced he should have scored in the world cup play off against Ghana, I mentioned in some of the shows I attended that time, he should be santioned and be made to pay fine and apologize to Ikpeba.

I was so shocked today, when I saw the video where he was lashing out at Finidi on Instagram, using fowl languages, calling Finidi by name, he didn't say, coach Finidi, uncle Finidi, Mr Finidi, but he called him by name. Such behavior is highly condemnable, and should not go unpunished. Finidi can born Osimhen, what Finidi achieved in football, Osimhen can never achieve it, Finidi help Nigeria qualify for world cup twice and play in world cup twice, Osimhen couldn't help Nigeria qualify for world cup and has not played in world cup. Finidi won champion's league with Ajax, Osimhen is yet to win it, Finidi is an AFCON winner, Osimhen has not achieved that. Finidi was the best number 7 in his days, Osimhen is not the best number 9 currently. As current African footballer of the year, he is an ambassador of Africa as a whole, not just Nigeria, therefore someone like him must not be seen with such dirty action.

Now coming to the matter, Finidi shouldn't have mentioned name, he should have talked generally, but I understand his frustration. But come to think of it, their is no lie in what Finidi said about Osimhen, since Osimhen has become the team's number one striker, he has been selecting matches he will play, in the last 5 years, most of the friendly matches the super eagles have played, Osimhen has always opted out, anyone who is doubting should go and research, I stand to be challenged and corrected. He will claim he is injured, but immediately after the friendly, you will see him playing in Napoli.
We all remember how he colluded with his club to opt out of AFCON 2 years ago, up till today, the reason for opting out is not clear.

This is always the problem with so many Nigerian players, most expecially those that sees themselves as the most important players in the team, Austin Okocha and Kanu Nwakwo too were selecting matches they will play in their own time, that is why Nigeria could not qualify for world cup in 2006, because they were not honouring invitation for world cup qualifiers matches away from home, I remember when a journalist asked Okocha why he didn't honour a particular match, he responded by saying he is not a machine.

Mikel Obi and Victor Moses too did the same thing, I remembered Stephen Keshi dealt with Mikel Obi because of that, by not inviting him for close to a year, it was the last qualifying match for 2013 AFCON that he invited him again, and ever since, Mikel did not try that again.

Obafemi Martins was doing same thing, Nigeria almost not qualify for 2010 world cup, because Martins and some players were not honouring away matches, that was the reason Amodu shuaibu wanted to drop him for 2010 AFCON in Angola, if not for the public outcry and the intervention of the NFF, Amodu would have dropped him. Even when they got to Angola, Amodu put him on the bench, and was using Yakubu Ayegbeni, Ozase Odewenge and Chinedu Obasi upfront, martins will only come in at the tail end of the match.

We can go on and on, it's a problem with our players, they are arrogant, they feel too big, they fill uncontrollable.

My suggestion is that, henceforth, let their be a code of conduct for every members of the team and the technical crew about dos and donts, that anyone who er, anyone who does contrary will be made to face sanction.

Back to Osimhen, he must be disciplined, he must be ban for sometime from the team and must be made to apologize to Finidi and Ikpeba."

#highlight #follower #everyone

#Copied#

Stuff is finidi does not have the leadership personality keshi commsnded. You know keshi has always been a leader was one of the first leaders of Nigerian players to Europe.
So the players easily respect him as he was once the captain. Finide has no leadership aura, confidence or charisma whatsoever.
On the other hand whatever it is, osimhen does not know howbtobtalk. His behaviour on social media is childish and amateurish. If he does that in his club in Europe they will bench him and sell him off. He will be shocked. Someone needs to teach him how to behave

U cant compare portugal 2 argentina


B4 messi

Argentina had more than ten copa and 2 wc


If u say madrid had 9 ucl b4 cr7, remember that barca had 2 ucl b4 messi became their best player


Barca hasnt replaced xavi.,iniesta,neymar,suarez,etc and thatz why they av not won ucl since 2015

Itz not abt replacing messi

Neither messi nor cr7 can be replaced

Imagine those abusing england 4 not having euro

As if itz that easy 2 win

Back 2 messi vs cr7

the world cup is the biggest but it takes more than 1 player


Mbappe did his best but lost in 2022


Germany and italy av 4 each without messi so itz not about avin messi

Messi had no goal and i wonder how many assists in 2014 knockout stage yet argentina reached the final

Anyways england av 1 wc and theyve reached the semis /quarters severally

Finally,

Even I will rate samu’s performance in laliga ahead of the Kalu Uche self. The same performance of his few castigate every then and now earned him a big move to almighty AC Milan

Trophy wise even samu is the most successful Nigerian to play in laliga cus he won the UEL with Villareal

He's even the mist succesful nigerian player in ac milan. No nigerian player had played 30 matches for ac milan. The only exception is the English born in ac milan who is not playing for us

One problem we have is that we waste our friendlies.
We should use fring players like samson tijani, taminu, ismaila sodiq, olawoyin in friendlies to find out how good or bad they are. Instead, we use our full squad for our friendlies.
This is the major problem. Have a midfield of samson tijani, nwakali and Raohael onyedika an attack of arokodare olakunle olusegub (u17 guy from russia) and yira sor in a friendly. Let them play for 90 minutes and see what happens. In that way we can discover new talents and if a player is not good enough we will know.
OK in our next friendly let us try ebenezer akinsanmiro and victor eletu to see what they can do.
If we claim our experienced players are not serious then the best way to replace them is in a friendly not when it is 10 minutes to go , ieobi and osimhrn are playing nonsense and it seems nobody can do anything from the bench.Friendlies are important I. Order to see who is good who needs time and who is outright horrible.
WE SHOULD STOP WASTING OUR FRIENDLIES!!!!.
NOW I DONT Wnt Any nwakali debate.
GOOD PLAYERS ARE DISCOVERED IN FRIENDLIES NOT IN DESPERATE CIRCUMSTANCES

Well this is what I like to hear, I am in complete agreement with your expectations. Success is built over the long term not the short term.

The English FA decided over a decade ago that the players being introduced into professional football ⚽. Through the academy systems were simply outdated, technically inept, lacking skill and creativity. Essentially kick 🦵🏿 and rush was obsolete.

As a consequence the English football academy needed to produce players who can play top level technical football and have the athletic ability to compete with players anywhere in the world 🌍

The whole youth training programme was changed and great emphasis placed on technical proficiency skill and athleticism.

Arsene Wenger once said if you don't have technical skill at 14 it's almost impossible to develop after that age.

What I am saying maybe the problem is much deeper, our football development has regressed very badly unfortunately. For how long have we been waiting for the next Jjay ,Finidi, Olise, etc



Stuff is Nigerian football had a coaching problem. From my observation the average Nigerian coach lacks knowledge of basic things in modern football.
Coaching is fundamental to football as teaching is to education. We don't coaching seriously.
Most Nigerian players are badly coached from their youth that's all. We need a coaching revolution.

When I said our attack needed ighalos finishing someone here called me foolish. Now you can see what your other strikers can do. OK now

It took Ighalo few years before he started delivering for eagles and really impressed during Afcon 2019 but the same Ighalo missed that chance against Argentina.

That's the point. He has learnt and grown and is ready made. It may take some of these young strikers time but ighali is ready now. I mean we have a mat h tomorrow.
20 minutes to go and we need to score against Benin, ifhalo will Bury it. That few years it took him is the experience he gained. He has the experience and we need him now

Just a reminder.
We need ighaLos finishing in our attack.
Those chances moffi and Co misses ighalo will putnit away.
He may not be the best attacker but he is our best finisher
We should get him un the team now.
He has the experience and confidence to convert chances.

"Allow you do your job" has cost you a win in your first real official match. This mentality will not take him far in SE.

You dumped a very top player in Boniface that is ability is not in doubt on the bench and started a Onuachu that fans have never liked his football with SE and you have the temerity to tell fans to Allow you do your job. Nigeria coaches and that statement is like 5 and 6.

You started kelechi that is terribly off form...I can't remember if Kelechi has played upto 4 matches this year 2024 with Leicester City.

You took Tanimunu to play central defence, and Bassey to play left back so as to please your bosses that want to sell players and when it boomerang on you, you switched Tanminu ro right back, Osayi to left back and turned SA to prime Brazil in the first half.

Finidi is not the manager that will qualify SE to the world cup. Directionless NFF should relive him now before it's too late...too many elementary decision making in playing selection and formation.

I predicted maximum 2 point in the two matches because of all what I have seen and observe from the end of Afcon mid February to the 30th of April 2024.

SE will not beat Benin with Finidi in charge...he does not have it all...too inexperienced. He is already cracking.

The surprising thing is that he has been with that team for 2 years yet he does not know how to use his players.
Finidi is simply horrible. If it was a new coach one will understand he has not known his players but he is not new. He needs to up his game or he may be fired.
If he does not win against Benin he may be fired. Most of these usa 94 generation are not good in coaching. Only siasia, eguavon and ammunika are ok among them.
Why not call igbo ogbu and jamilu collins to beef up the defence.
I'm not watching our next match. I don't care anymore. I'm tired

Only up from here

Finidi should be sacked today. The man is a load of rubbish.
With Finidi as coach we will not win against Benin. Sack him before tomorrow morning.

That is my wish bro, but considering the fact that this is a high profile match and th SAn's are not coming here to play but for revenge and break the jinx, they will surely give it all.
Remember also your team key players are down with injuries coupled with the shabby selections of Finidi.

Ibrahim olawoyin, dele Bashir, iheanacho, visitor bonifae etc are good to go not to mention moffi and ademola lookman.
We have the forwards, also olawoyin and dele Bashir can play in midfield

Agelastus:

This is not just a movie. Brian Banks was a real life character. Dude's life got ruined by a false rape allegation.
You should google search and read up his story.

As a guy have you ever had sex with a low class girl and regretted it. Like having sex with a street hawker and feeling disappointed with yourself. Well, it also happens with girls. If they make a mistake and sex a guy they normally won't eg maybe a university graduate has a fling with a bus conductor. If the lady regrets it, she will lie she was raped just not to feel bad about her mistake.
The gender can lie about rape if they just get down with the wrong person in a careless way. That's oart of the reason for false rape accusations.
This gender can be silly

Romance / Re: As A Married Woman, I'm Tired Of Sleeping With Different Men by Philosopher1979: 8:16pm On Jun 02
tomdon:



According to the law of who??

This is a question for social scientists.
The patraichy and marriage actually evolved to control and curb female sexuality. Also it evolved to create a patriarchal society. I mean if acwoman has sex with 3 men who is the mother of the child.
Actually the human female is very promiscuous and in the ancient past the patraichy evolved things like female circumcision, marriage, social shamming structures etc to curb female sexuality.
Society cannot really survive if women get too liberal with their sexuality.
Our forefathers cannot conquer nations, invent agriculture etc only to father another man's child.
Marriage is needed to keep society in harmony and so female sexuneeds to be curbed.
Ancient men realised this but in modern society we think we are wiser.
Also, most of themes sexual liberalists views are somewhat rooted in atheism. If you are not an atheist you will realize that Marrwas invented by God.
We talk about all this in the nairaland redpill movement which people croticize

Yeah u are right. Westerhoof noticed it decades ago but we didn't get what he was trying to tell us. Hang we just need a coach who understands us that's all.
Even finidi might go far if he can be tactically sound.
To solve this administrative issue, maybe we can get emmanalo the former chelsea guy to assume an administrative capacity in our football. Maybe be in charge of our league. Someone should reach out to him.
We are one good administrator and coach away from winning the world cup. We just have administrative issues. OK France won the world cup with a lot of black African players.
We blacks are very talented but raw. Then we should take coach seriously. Africans play with raw talent without any input from coaches. The way osimhen does not keep himself onside makes me wonder if the coaches in his academy taught him basic things.
Again don't let us waste this human resource called emmenalo. I'm surpwe are not trying to harness his administrative skills. It's foolish of us

What do u mean by facilities and tactics?
The Europeans are far more advanced and tactical than than South Americans yet it is Brazil that has won world cup the more.

And do u really think we can never get it right one day?
All it takes is to have one competent FA chairman who would do the right things and employ a decent coach.
Without quality talents,ur tactics will amount to nothing.
Nigeria is blessed enough to produce quality talents to rule the world,leadership is our problem, and that can change at any time.

Super eagles as team has defeated a world class team like Spain even with a wack coach like Bora Milutinovic,
what do u think they would do with a world class coach?

KC has just had a season to forget he was supposed to tear the championship apart but rather he got torn apart and whipped in the Championship.

He is not in form should not even be in the team.

Striking technique and has scored 5 goals from 23 games in the Championship.

They should find a NPFL player to come in, it seems Aribo is not in the team so where is the creativity and invention in midfield going to come from. It seems all creativity and invention will rest on Iwobi 😳

SA forget the players are a very good team with outstanding cohesion and team understanding they are technically good if we underestimate them we will cry 😭

Aribo cannot create anything from midfield. He is at best a forward. He is just there. It's either he plays as a forward or he is dropped from the team

So many big jobs were available and no one seemed to want Mourinho..
Na wa o
Na Guardiola boys full everywhere
Even Wayne Rooney got a job before Mourinho!!
Strange..

Maurinho does not make a player or team better. He just wins.
He does not change football at a fundamental level. His does not 8mprove a players tactical intelligence or technique. His players are like robots just following instructions to win.
Guardiola on the other hand makes a player intelligent and actually improves a team. Guardiola is not just winning trophies he is revolutionising football. Introducing new and innovative ideas like the inverted fullback.
Anybody can park the bus like maurinho but Guardiola view if football is more expansive and varied and intelligent.
Guardiola is a footballing institution and not just a medal winner.
Some coaches are popular not just because they win tropbut because they introduce innovations. If Guardiola does not win trophies he will still be respected for his innovations. Guardiolas vision of football goes beyond the simplistic need to win trophies. He is a visionary and innovator and he is re inagining football

From this team so far judging by their Wafu B performances, I would have to say Forward, Abdulmuiz Adeleke (#13) and Midfielder Simon Cletus (#10) are sure standouts. Not exactly Iheanacho/Nwakali/Osimhen/Yahaya-kinda standouts but those two truly are the top talents of this team so far.

Another interesting lad is Rapha Adams.
