Yes we are a footballing country with a strong footballing culture. We have to respect that

typicalgamer:
Do you want to be begging in the streets after your career end and say yeah back in the day i won afcon !

Why are they playing so hard if it’s not for their personal stock and value ??

No sell your market first time go pass you by.

This Moroccan team has gotten more exposure than our 2018 super Eagles ever did.

When last did we talk about amrabat here ??

If we’re talking about him now imagine what other scouts are doing right now

So no fool yourself perform on the big stage and your stock will skyrocket.

No be to beat people 10-0 with nothing further to show for it.

One fool here say in a World Cup scenario Nigeria wouldn’t lose to Portugal lol

Mujtahida:
Is Nigeria a footballing country?

TheGoodJoe:

We are talking of Spain here. They have won a lot and lost by penalties. Spain will be alright.

By the way, Spain put 7 past Costa Rica.

andrewbaba44:
Amrabat appreciation

Amedino99:
the world cup is the pinnacle of football in the world . Of course you would get more recognition playing in the world cup than afcon or any other continental tournament infact. But then a wc quarterfinal place is not that high in prestige that would warrant a trade off with an afcon trophy.

komekn:
Oh yes with the maestro Nwakali and a limited ball passer DM in Ndidi.

We can be pessimistic and even optimistic but let's leave emotions and be REALISTIC.

typicalgamer:
Go and check richarlison followers after he scored that sensational goal in the World Cup.

From 7mil to 14 and still growing same thing with hakimi and almost everybody else.

Same richarlison played in copa final nobody bats an eye but in World Cup you can the reviews and everything.

So you’re telling me that you pick afcon ? Over a World Cup semi final you must be delusional

Blueelf:
It's not just one fool

They are actually many fools

A lot of them

Blueelf:
And are second round exits

Say something else

Blueelf:
Currently better than all Super Eagles midfielders + change

typicalgamer:
People think we’re 2002 Brazil like come on na

Kanu and okocha has been retired for over a decade now we still call them golden generation to tell you how hard we’ve fall and our backwards our mentality is

AIG07:
Satire in its purest form!

Spain can take the ball home.

Morroco has done the needful...

andrewbaba44:
I fit argue ?

I get eye for football nah

Barcelona won’t see this one to replace busquets ooo because he isn’t expensive with 1 year left on his contract

Blueelf:
Very backwards

Very

Over 5 years since carl ikeme and we haven't even got 1 solid GK not to talk of 3

Over 10 years since Okocha and Kanu yet can't boast of 1 complete creative midfielder

Over 13 yrs since Finidi and we can't get a solid winger with solid end-product

Let one CHuks score 1 goal in 15 games and watch how this thread will go bunkers

We like to celebrate mediocrity

Blueelf:
Barca problem fit be money

They may not be as financially buoyant as fans think

But then again, they may be too sentimental and prefer their academy boys of 1000 passes and no end product

andrewbaba44:
No be for amrabat

Amrabat no be mbappe

Amrabat is a dm ,he is no creative ,so I no no which end product you Dey find ,his job is not to be creative ,we gave FDJ and pedri for that

Busquets was one of the best midfielder for many years without being creative

typicalgamer:
Not many years up till the very moment

andrewbaba44:
Who ?

typicalgamer:
We’re the pinnacle of mediocrity.

We can’t remember last we won caf champions league. But folks here will be saying take players from league let them play for senior team and you’ll see the difference.

Same guys that won’t score a single goal till they’re knocked out of caf championship Omo

Our problem too strong abeg

God no leave us abeg just give us one golden generation in my time abeg

typicalgamer:
We’re a football loving country oga

We’re not a footballing or sporting country

Because if we are, the facilities would speak for itself are we clear ?

typicalgamer:
Busquets

Blueelf:
Sometimes, I wonder if I will ever see the Super Eagles get to the Semi-final of the WC in 90 yrs time

Because, as I said, our problems are deeply rooted and will take decades to fix.

We should stop comparing ourselves with morocco

The truth is the average Nigerian Football official/player/ref is very greedy and is concerned about what he will eat now than what the generations to come will benefit from

From our lower division leagues to the premier leagues to the NFF to the sports ministry, the root of corruption ha spread its roots all over

Where do we start from?

Even our own billionaires don't want to buy our sports teams because of the mess that is our league. \the rot and corruption stinks and makes even Lucifer himself shudder

Nigeria has a long way to go

We appoint politicians into sensitive sports positions and expect complete turnaround

Even our ex-internationals that should help us salvage our remaining dignity sportswise are busy advertising sports bet. How many of them can show you a UEFA coaching license..even if it's the least one? This shows you that the average black man na for himslef alone. Our ex-internationals are hardly interested in moving our football forward. The ones interested like amuneke, Finidi, Olofinjana won't be given the chance; they will be owed salaries till the second coming of Christ

E be like say Naija dey under one Old mama curse...abi no be so?

andrewbaba44:
As it is now ,the only place busquets will still show class at 34 is at guardiola system

BascoVanVeli:
In the house for my first ever Women’s league match.

Ibom Angels vs Abia Angels

🇲🇦Azzedine Ounahi - MC (2000) vs Espagne

Très bonne implication et rigueur défensive, lancement des transitions, soutien sur les sorties de balles sous pression, temporisation de la possession… Un match de très grande qualité pour le jeune Angevin !pic.twitter.com/H1cchiM4Vr
