Did you guys see the video of the Egyptian goalie's water bottle, where he put down information concerning the Senegalese players and how they score (most likely targets)?

I personally think it genius

I was specific. I said Mendy of Rennes "IF HE WAS NOT ALREADY WITH SENEGAL", he would be called because he was better than Areola a bench warmer at PSG
At Rennes he won’t start but maybe be their 3rd choice , e get why

Was Areola starting, or did I ever say he would start? He was better than Areola, and would make the team ahead of Areola, for fvcks sake he was the best goalkeeper in the ligue1 that year

The blame should be on the NFF for failing simple protocol. My friend, rules are rules and it has to be adhered
It’s clear bro

Instead of them to Channel their blame to nff they decide to channel their blame to watford

How has Nigeria players been playing at big European leagues prior to the likes of Egypt, Ghana Senegal, and ivory coast and couldn’t produce consistent world class global superstar as the aforementioned countries Omo, it’s painful! Our world class players like Finidi Kanu and okocha couldn’t achieve much individual success or weren’t consistent as the aforementioned players despite being equally as talented. I hope that, the likes Osimehn, Ndidi or any emerging talent could be consistent, or become a global at a big club like the types mane, Salah, Essien, Eto’o, Yaya or drogba.

It’s like we’re used to obvious incompetency at our country and failing to accept responsibility instead of blaming others. Can you imagine some people suggesting that Dennis (our best player at Epl this season) shouldn’t be invited to an all important WCQ game vs our arch-rival because his Fa failed to submit his name to his club at the due time?? Like, some of the things that people convey here is just blatant ignorant

Stop going off tangent. When did Gomis start keeping for Senegal sef abi you forgot Ndiaye?

I was talking about Mendy's rise that started in 2020 and you are talking about Gomis that was dropped after his howler against Algeria.

Mendy of Rennes na 2020 oga, so before that season, anybody could have started for Senegal. Funny enough, Gomis of SPAL wasn't even considered good enough hence Ndiaye of Horoya was the starter in Russia 2018.

In a nutshell, Mendy has been good enough for the French team since 2020. Also, for the past 1.5years, he has been good enough to start for France if he had played for the French team.

the problem with our players is once they secure deals abroad they feel so comfortable that they have arrived and escaped poverty as well so the hunger and eagerness to improve and become better isnt their number one priority anymore

the way chukwueze started in laliga i thought by now he will be playing for of ATM,madrid or barca

for now the only 2 that may end up in big clubs still remains osimhen and ndidi, if dennis can sustain his form this season he may also attract a move to a bigger club than watford only if they get relegated

Na honest question I ask you ooo broda

Wasn’t Gomis the one that keep at the afcon at Egypt ?

Mendy of Rennes 2020 will never start for France .

Their tactic is piss poor. All they did was play defensive, hope for some world class saves from their good GK, hope for a very lucky goal out of no where, if that doesn't work they will just hang in there and insha Allah their way to the PKs where anything goes.

And if the average north african scores first, they close up the game and execute their tactics e.g. flopping all over the place...

These defend and play for penalty tactics will not work for good teams who know how to bury the half-chance. That's why i said the Tunisians were shiitty and if Egu knew what he was doing he would have beaten them...
Truly Tunisians were there for the taking but that little bit of luck which sometimes makes a difference was not in our favor. Rather Lady fortune decided to favor the Tunisians and that's how the cookie crumbled

Dennis also based on this season performance has the ability to secure a deal to the top 6 team at Epl. After all, mane was at Southampton prior to his Liverpool success

You have been singing about the SE creating 13 chances when in reality we had just 1 shot on target. How can you call 12 shots off target as creating chances? We lost bro! Nobody gets points for 'not being outplayed' or 'chances created'..

The earlier you realize we lost to the Tunisians due to Eguavoen's tactics, the better for you. Honestly there is no two ways about this, Egavoen oversaw one of the greatest failure of SE in my lifetime.
you are exaggerating, we lost to the 4th best team while playing them with a player-less. How can you even call that the greatest failure?

Only an ignoramus would call for the ommission of Dennis's name. We need to prosecute those matches with our best players.

Before the howler wasn’t he the first choice ?

Howler or no howler Mendy was likely to bench him after that afcon

So it was 2020 in your village when Egypt hosted the afcon ba ?

I never knew Enugu was one year ahead of Lagos state grin

For that wing - Moses Simon, Emma Dennis, Ademola Lookman, Sam Chuks and maybe Ejuke/Amoo.

This is not entirely true. It was Kara Mbodji that made Koulibaly play for Senegal when Kalidou was a nobody. After playing for their U20s, he was overlooked by the French youth system, then he joined Genk where he met and formed a CB partnership with Mbodji. Mbodji seized the opportunity to convince him that he stood a better chance with Senegal, and the rest became history. France started to taking notice when he became good at Napoli without even knowing that he had already been capped by Senegal.

You also lied where you said Koulibaly was the only FrancoSenegalese that can make the French team. Oga, Mendy will bench every French goalkeeper alive today.
nobody’s touching Lloris glove till he retire sha

Football playing styles are
Tiki taka(this happens when technically sound ball playing and joggling personnel are abundant in a team)
2. Ghen Ghen pressing (this happens when a team has energetic speedster from wing, midfield and strike position to keep opponent on a running spree for the entire duration of a game)
3. Park the bus and hit on counter (this happens when a team has conservative personnel who cannot confidently do number 1 football style) boring though but can sometimes largely be interesting and result centred.
So anyone a team picks and it works for them, good luck to them! The one wey work for you na em you go use
Have you not heard of Yori- Yori? This is the Nigerian brand of football that emphasises wing play, directness from the midfield and a little touch of ghen ghen pressing and tiki taka in the mix.
