This is a very lame excuse. Most professional footballers today from Africa never knew what an academy was even aged 16, so Eze was even privileged to be released by an academy at 14. At 14 I was in secondary school playing catholic high school/seminarian diocesan leagues while boys my age in the Uk were already registered with academies from Under5.

For Eze to have been released by an academy in the UK and still make it, trust me, if he was born in Nigeria, the best he could be now is a Yahoo boy.

Have you been to any seminary school or boys high schools in Nigeria to see raw talents, that if they were born in a better environment, their stories would be different?


You are incoherent and are unable to see matter's in perspective.

Lame excuse for what I really don't understand your train of thought. He is an outstanding player who had to overcome multiple obstacles before MAKING IT.

The context of his obstacles, contentions, is the UK with all its institutional RACISM, socio- economic exclusion, Favouritism, etc.

In the UK millions of boys dream of becoming professional footballers. They start from a very elaborate grass root system of local football at age 5/6, yes even at this age records are kept.

It's from these grass root clubs the cream of the crop are selected. Some from age 5,6,-7 and others even later even at age 16 like Ademola Lookman signed by Charlton from local football.

However, even among the very few selected to academies every year many are dropped. Some are so disappointed they commit suicide. It's not easy, all your life in an academy and dropped like lead when your 17 that's Psychologically devastating.

But back to your errant, misguided to large extent befuddled comparison response.

What are you implying he had it EASY , his struggles lack substance, he is undeserving of his attainments, he is not outstanding.

Your comparison makes no sense. I should therefore say. There is no suffering in Nigeria, because people are still able to eat once a day, bread and coke with Akara in Nigeria.

That if you were in Burkina Faso, you would be drinking Juice from the Boabob tree and it's bark for your main once a day meal.

Suffering is suffering irrespective of your location,one man's meat is another persons poison. I've seen Nigerian so depressed from loneliness they have become institutionslised in mental homes.

You may think the streets here are paved with gold, l can assure they are not. There are many things that are better in Nigeria.

If you move those boys from Nigeria to UK the socio cultural dynamics will see them become something else you had not anticipated. Do you know the many boys fresh from Nigeria that did not make it in football.

Go to Antwerp and you will see hundreds of boys now old men who came to fulfill football dreams in Europe. They are now washing cars to survive and too ashamed to return home. Because they cannot meet the crazy Expectations put on them at home in Nigeria.

The people who constantly attack him for posting memes should also calm down

Public figure does not mean he should remain quiet to constant attacks on his person.

You people forget being a public figure does not make one any less a human being with feelings. That outburst did not come out of nowhere, it was provoked. One foolish guy came at him for no just reason and he is within his right to lash out.

He never even talk anything and you are saying they should advise him, advise him that what happened?

Public figure, not public idiot

A man who doesn't know how to rein in his tongue is not a man at all. This is one of the oldest rules in history. James 1:26.

That rule was meant for face-to-face. Now imagine the amount of self-control expected over the internet on a public forum.

Osimhen has not received 0.02 percent of the insults that Lingard has gotten.
Or 0.001% of Morata's abuse.
Or one-thousandth of Iwobi's criticism.

So what is agitating him?

If you think aggression is a man's best response to oppression, then I have nothing to say to you, ma'am.

I did not say it was his best response

You do not get to define anyone's response on the internet as best, because you have not lived their realities and will never live it.

A man who expects all men to be as he is, is a man who lives in a bubble and will never know what reality is.

All this boy literally does is catch cruise. You are comparing him to people that are being insulted for poor games, nobody has ever insulted Osimhen for having a poor game and you will see him lash out. Nobody has ever called Osimhen out for playing poorly or for indiscipline in his personal life.


The Iwobi, Morata and Lingard, is it not because of poor games that they are insulted? What is the correlation with someone that just comes online to catch cruise and still gets insulted by frustrated individuals?

You are drawing a false equivalence and talking about being a man. Does being a man mean you should ignore unprovoked attacks on your person? Is that what you were taught about manhood?

People will walk all over you and spit in your face if you allow them, and you're here chatting nonsense about reining in emotions.

If they want to attack Osimhen for his game and his lifestyle off the pitch, that is one thing, but nobody has ever come up to him for any of that. It is literally for something as utterly silly as making general jokes on the internet.

What does that have to do with the insults Lingard, Iwobi and Morata have gotten from being ass on the pitch?

Please, you better say nothing to me if you are going to approach this matter with situations that are very much different from each other.

Please, if you know that you do not regularly use Twitter or follow Osimhen and his posts, I take God beg una refrain from talking about his reactions to trolls.

Some of you are being so unreasonable and unfairly judgmental of this boy, it is bordering on sheer hypocrisy.

They should stop messing with that boy, he has done absolutely nothing to be trolled. He has not put a foot wrong for Napoli or Nigeria the entire 2021, and miserable idiots decide to constantly attack him because he wants to post stale jokes on the internet and you people think that is justified?

Abeg abeg abeg, if your own manhood teaches you to be the punching bag for frustrated people, Osimhen's own has taught him to stand up for himself.


If you allow Nigerians, they will bully you out of social media and then gloat about it. Na so dem wan use bullying finish Burna Boy that year, but his success muted them. Some of una for say make Burna no talk because he be man.

Useless manhood.

I just dey observe as people just dey reason footballers matter like say them too know.
It is the ''best team'' that will win this AFCON not the one with a few individually brilliant players.

Here is my top 4 teams most likely to win the tournament( in descending order) and why.


1. Senegal.
Reasons:
a. They have the right mix of foreign/africa based players.
b. They have a good mix of experienced and fresh players.
c. They are yet to win this tournament before.
d. They have consistently been at the top three teams in Africa for sometime now.
e. Mane and Mendy:
You cannot win a tournament without goals and an exceptional keeper.
f. They are coached by a veteran and National hero who may see this as his last opportunity to lay his hands on the coveted trophy.

2. Tunisia.
Reason
Very compact team. Everybody knows every other persons next move... It is as if they can play blindfolded.


3. Cameroon
Reason
a. The twelfth-player-on the pitch syndrome.
b. The Lions would treat their opponent as intruders who dared to come into their den to decimate their PRIDE
c. The have Generals in every department.
Onana gk
Zambo Anguissa
Abubakar
Choupo Moting
d. Five time winners. O ti mo won lara

4. Algeria
Reason.
a. Defending Champions- although this may work against them because of Africans pull-him-down syndrome.
Most teams will see a win against them as a lifting of some sort of trophy.
b. A veteran Local coach that has been there and done that.
c. They are currently on an unbeaten run of 40 games
c. They have Generals in every department and can also play blindfolded with precision and accuracy.
can
d. They score a lot of goals...

e. They they really concede

If you are disappointed that you did not see 'Nigeria' in my list, sorry ooo.
We come sixth on my list behind Pharoahs of Egypt (another high scoring side.

This sixth wet I put them an simply because of one reason: if that Naija Spirit come upon them la san... Na Zazu zen everybody go dey collect.

He's more active because he is not playing currently and has free time.

When he goes back to playing, he will tweet less.

Na mumu things like this he dey tweet. If no be frustration, why person go dey insult the boy over mumu tweets like this?

Dem go just make person dey defend wetin no even require defense if say people normal.

If I have my way, Balogun and Dennis, and anyone else who doesn't respect the opportunity to play for Eagles, won't wear that GWG again.

Balogun has been dedicated over the years, but recently I've seen that fire die in his eyes. Maybe it's because he's outspoken and the NFF don't like people like that, or maybe he want to reclaim his shirt at Rangers, but whatever, he should have come to camp. Not coming means he's lying about his fitness going by the stray bullets Eguavoen sent to the absent players.
