charlesemeka85: This is an excerpt from Afcon 2006 Nigeria vs Zimbabwe Zimbabwe coach says Kanu's a "wizard" We had a good first half, but when Kanu came in on resumption, things changed and in the course of about five minutes of madness, my defence line caved in. I think Kanu is a phenomenon in the Nigerian team. I will call him a wizard," Mhlauri remarked. Port Said, Egypt (PANA) - Coach Charles Mhlauri of Zimbabwe has attributed his team's 2-0 loss Friday to the Super Eagles of Nigeria to the entry in the match of striker Nwankwo Kanu in the second half. the Zimbabwean coach noted that if Kanu had not been introduced in the match, the 'Warriors' of Zimbabwe had 'enough weapon to hold the Eagles'. https://coupedafrique.winoo.com/Africancup2006/index.cfm/md/11/id/1641/Zimbabwe_coach_says_Kanu_s_a_wizard__ACN_2006_.cfm And this was when kanu was on a decliine 10 minutes of Kanu can change a match. |

TheGoodJoe: in afcon 2000 he had a hattrick of assists against Tunisia. His ability in midfield was the only thing that kept us going from 2006 to 2010. In the period we will play rubbish and kanu will come in and change the game from midfield I remember our matches against senegal and zimbabwe in afcon 2006, 2008 or 2010 i can remember. He was a magician who changed the game from midfield. Kanu trumps amokachi and siasia in his ability to control the midfield and create chances. He simply was more of a midfielder was more creative, could play possesion football and made life easier for our forwards 3 Likes 1 Share |

Marjoribanks: What i dont like about that generation is that they were underachievers. Tge france 98 team was more talented than the morocan team if the 2022 world cup but the moroccan team got better results. Indiscipline killed tgat generation. They failed Africa Secondly we cant keep living in the past. We have gifted players now. Daniel daga and akinsanmiro are commjng up. In fact danuel daga at 16 is wannted by Liverpool ac milan etc 1 Like 1 Share |

ONE OF THE SOLUTiONS TO OUR MiDFiELD PROBLEMS iS KELECHI NWAKALI A veritable solution to our midfield problems is nwaali People who hate him are somwhat bias and illogical. We simply dont have many options. i am only been logical 1. We have fantastic forwards 2. We lac creative midfielders apart from iwobi 3. Nwaali addition will boost the creativity of our midfield 4. logically speaking we could have qualified for the world cup if he played against Ghana. 5. Again with logic if he plays in the next nations cup we might win it. why? his ability to dominate the midfield will mae us win matches. Cant you see we have the best attac in Africa? with him in our midfield there is no one that can defeat us in African football We will beat sengal mali egypt morocco etc to see how good he is let Nigeria play Morocco and put him in midfield i am confident that he can collect the midfield from Arambat and all these moroccan midfielders God has given us a solution to our problems but we despise him and we will suffer for it if we dont appreciate him He is and can be our secret weapon but A lot of people here dislie him for no logical reason. Time will prove them wrong 3 Likes 1 Share |

AndSunGorilla: He should wait till he is 31 before going to collect his money. He is on the verge of maing history. If he goes now it will be hard to come back as he may be too expensive for most european clubs. A club may need 200 million to buy him back. Let him fulfil his destiny for another 7 years before going. These money leagues will always be there. if it is not saudi arabia today it is usa or china tommorow. Even south america may attract investors soon Let him stay and break any record. Besides his level may go down if he heads for saudi. He should just stay in Europe and go and get his money when he is 31 or 32 4 Likes 1 Share |

Tolulopefinest: One day a good coach will figure this out put one and one together and product a great team that will do wonders. By the way i was reading an analysis of Raphael Onyedika on totalfootballanalysis and i was stunned According to the site 1. He can play passes to wingers and break one or two defensive lines 2. He can make progressive passes for his team and is good at progressing the ball for his team upfield 3. He can also mark well. I may be exagerating but everything about what they said sounded like Sunday Oliseh remember the pass he gave Yekini at afcon 94. From what i read he is capable of stuff like that. Read the analysis below https://totalfootballanalysis.com/player-analysis/raphael-onyedika-the-21-year-old-midfielder-making-a-big-name-for-himself-with-club-brugge-scout-report These are excerpts from the article. Not my words but that of totalfootballanalysis which is a respected website He averages 42.2 passes per 90 in all competitions this season while also averaging 7.58 progressive passes per 90, which is a very high value for a midfielder. This means that he is one of the most critical progressors for his side and is very crucial for their transition from the first to the second phase and the second to the third phase in possession. The image below shows him playing a long pass that progresses the ball for his team and finds a free man in space on the wing. He is also good at disguising passes when playing it forward for his teammates. The advantage of such passes are that it takes a lot of opposition players out of the equation and breaks lines swiftly. We can see an example of that in the image below where his body orientation suggests that he is going to play a pass to the full-back near the wing. However, he eventually plays it forward to one of the wingers out there in the forward line thus breaking two lines of defence at once. 2 Likes 1 Share |

BascoVanVeli: Well i have thought of it. The only league that can use money to catch up with the European league is the South American league especially Brazil and Argentina. The other leagues will try in vain. if i had money i will invest in the Brazilian league and within 5 years it will catch up with Europe. i dont thin saudi arabia can catch up with Europe. in fact by default a player in Sao Paoulo or any top team in brazil might be better than a player in Brentford or fulham. Thats how good the South American league is by default. With money players like endrick, neymar etc wont go and some of the best players in europe will go to South America and it will dust Europe in a short time |

Scout report on Ebenezer Aisanmiro (from panafricafootball.com) Player Description Akinsanmiro plays in a similar style to Andrés Iniesta. Both play either as a central midfielder or an attacking midfielder. Akinsanmiro is an orchestrator, someone who controls the midfield, kickstarting attacks with his technical skills and offensive input. He can play on either side in Inter’s 4-3-3 defensive formation, and he’s also played as the #10 in the 4-2-3-1. He’s played roles as a creator, a box-to-box midfielder, or even a mezzala, drifting in from the outside into the inside with his cutting, energetic playstyle. He has great touch, dribbling skills, and vision. However, Akinsanmiro is also an intelligent interpreter of the game. He shares the same tendencies as Iniesta; he retains the ball, penetrates the defense from the outside, plays incisive one-twos, and often sends the ball to the wings. Iniesta and Akinsanmiro both work hard on offense and defense, are agile and athletic, and make big plays on both ends of the ball. General Pros and Cons Pros + Excellent dribbler who controls the ball really well and is comfortable using all parts of his feet. + Incredible distributor who can facilitate play with his incredible vision. + Solid tackler who shows incredible technique with his tackling. Cons – Often puts too much power on his shot leading to many attempts going off target. – Ineffective when it comes to aerial duels due to his height. Technical + Solid dribbler with incredible ball control. He can take the ball upfield for huge counters, beat the press, and turn quickly and unexpectedly to draw fouls. He has a good touch on the ball and can control, shift, and kill the ball pretty easily. ◊ Good passer with a lot of vision. Akinsanmiro is reliable in possession and can pick out players on the move. He also goes for some imaginative passes that unlock the defense, but his long passes look iffy at times. Evaluation: Ready for a loan to Serie B for match experience Akinsanmiro is already a key player for Inter Milan Primavera, so he could reasonably be ready for a loan to a Serie B club or a low-quality Serie A side. But, don’t expect him to get many minutes in Inter’s senior team without the help of a big breakout season. CULLED FROM panafricafootball.com 4 Likes 2 Shares |

PstDapo: The problem is that women now enjoy sex due to the fact that modern society has put an end to female circumssision A lot of girls are not circumssised and so they fuc around as they may enjoy sex more than even the men. As a result the only bill simps who dont understand this fact. Our forefathers circumsised women and even put Magun on their body in order for them not to be promiscous. i am not in support of female circumsission but society controlled female sexuality in the past to avoid paternal fraud. There is even a Yoruba proverb that says "Poron Obirin ibudo asewo ni" Which means "A womans clitoris Is the source of sexual immorality" The modern female is uncircumssised and sexually liberated This makes them to behave anyhow and fuc around. 5 Likes |

atheistandproud: Society limited a man's sexual access to how much money and resources he had so as to be able to cater for the next generation and reduce poverty. A man without money will impregenate women if granted access to sex and this will create children who he cannot take care of and wallow in poverty. To give birth to children you need money to tae care of them. Granting poor men access to sex will lead to poverty and single mothers as most poor men are reluctant to mary. The poor and neglected children will then take to crime as they have no money and have no home training They will be like Almajiri children in the NOrth. So yes society has a point in trying to limit a man's access to sex to money And making sure only rich men can mary multiple wives |
