thunderous slap 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Even their local tv entertainment shows and podcasts na 9ja music industry dem carry for mouth complaining that we don’t patronize their songs as they do to ours 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Like say we dey force dem mk dem listen to burna boy and co 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ghana as a country is over hyped. The only thing they better pass us electricity and security

Our healthcare system is very cheap and better than theirs. If u fall sick in ghana and u no get money to get good medical attention book the next flight or bus to 9ja if not u go die there 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

Their citizens no dey even afford good health care and they all resort to herbs and roots. The reason why every corner for their dem dey sell kai kai with root and herbs

Accra that is over hyped is not even as developed as portharcourt
🤓🤓

You’re very right ! All the know is s*x ,,, So spoil at that and nothing more on their head 🤣🤣

They are not envious of Nigerians but found Nigerian very annoying, dishonest, aggressive, boastful, uncivilized without regard for rule of law. Now , when you xray the Nigerian society you would understand that Nigerians are do not fall far from these labels everyone placed on them.

Even in here in Houston, Nigerians have very bad reputation. Very criminal minded, aggressive, boastful , uncivilized and gravely corrupt.

So when Africans treat is bad its because of our bad behavior. For me , I carry myself with dignity and many times people to believe I am a Nigerian. I want to change that rotten narrative. Nigeria has a very poor image around the world....and they are loud and boastful and think they are better than anyone. It's very embarrassing and infuriating
They are please ! So you mean all Nigerians possess this ill attitudes 😳😳

Nigerians are one of the best human on planet ,,, so Ghanaians , other Africans or even this foreign countries ain’t corrupt or in any way lack behavioral manners

This is a big Joke I believe! Majority of us are doing exploits around the globe , I agree some of us are loud but who hold their mouth 👄. We’re just simply unique in everything hence the envy from other Africans… We just lack good leadership if not ,,, mehhnnnn 🥶🥶

Agreed. Now let's talk about the crucial stages like the Semi final and final what do you say?
the only match your claim is right will be the final. Every other match he was provided chances. against south africa, he failed to score the header from the cross by aina, a chance he normally buries in Napoli. The cancelled goal. Or would you say he was not fed chances in that match?

When u give a striker too many responsibilities, his quality drops in his primary responsibility. This sums up Osimhen in the AFCON

BREAKING NEWS -------Will you agree with me that NFF needs to go into action in search of creative Midfielders.

Otherwise, Super Eagles might not benefit from Osimhen's talent and abilities to finish when the passes are regularly supplied.🇳🇬

Osimhen is a world class player,all we need is a creative midfielder for supereagle and Osimhen would deliver countless goals

I agree he was wasteful but do you know that his pace and off ball movements got him in most of these positions?

How many pin- point passes did he even get?Look at that Zambo Anguissa pass in the UCL nah.. So sweet.

I must admit Anguissa is a boss. Iwobi needs to learn from that dude.

That was a straightforward pass actually
Nothing special about it
Another striker might have lost that ball or be bullied off by the defender
Kudos to Osimhen for that sharp turn, holding off the defender and scoring
Osimhen did all the work
The pass wasn't special

It was not as ordinary as you see it. Didn't you see how quick the pass was and how he successfully warded off his marker?

How many of these moves and passes did Iwobi even make?

IfbOsimhen saw these in Afcon wouldn't he be glad?

Seems Joshua Zirkzee wants to commit to Nigeria. Already Jpes is in talks with Michael Folorunsho. Arthur Okonkwo, Gabriel Osho and Elijah Adebayo now with us. Let's play Jordan Tourinagha and cap Tosin Adarabioyio. With Ndidi, Boniface, Orban, Sadiq all back, I think we will be fine. Then the left back has to be quickly sorted out.

Your admission is based on what.

Fulham got rid of Anguissa but decided to go for Iwobi,what did they see that you cannot.

We need atleast 3 proper CMs
We are solid at LB
We have Zaidu, Bruno and Jamiu Collins
They are solid options

If we're to play the same system we used at the AFCON, we need proper CMs filling the Iwobi role, and we move Iwobi forward or keep him on the bench

true, even the studio analysts admitted he created the chance by himself. They even said his performance was not top-notch on the night but he kept fighting until he got the goal. Osimhen is a player o and he's yet to get back to 100% fitness.

True but then again Osimhen missed quite a number of chances he should ordinarily have been burying at the AFCON. Maybe the mental exhaustion from having to press and drop deep into midfield affected him.

The 3-4-3 formation also affected the number of chances he got. The chances he had against EG in the group stage probably outnumbered the total number of chances he had for the rest of the tournament and no surprise it was in that one game he enjoy good supply he scored.

Still think JP missed a trick not playing more offensive in the final by deploying three midfielders.

we should stop all these, every country has its bad eggs among its citizens, but it's us who normally rush to the media to expose what the bad eggs among us do. Most countries don't behave that way. I think Nigerians are unnecessarily being profiled negatively around the world and it's our fault especially the way we disgraced ourselves on social media. In south London, if you don't secure your car steering or pad up your pedals, your car will be moved before you wake up the next day, do you see Brits going on social media to call their country a shit hole? Banditry has been in South Africa for donkey years before it started in Nigeria, do you see South Africans lampooning their country for all their security problems? Nairobi is also called Nairobber where robbery is the order of the day, do you see Kenyans bashing their country? The Houston you say you're living in, don't they raid shopping malls regularly there, I know this myself but what's the media image of Houston being projected as?

We are the ones responsible for our bad image out there and those other Africans who bash us are only complimenting what we do. If we start projecting Nigeria differently, they will also follow likewise. Kenya and South Africa are not better than Nigeria in terms of security but how are those countries projected? Just think about it

As much as he deserves a new contract, our plethora of strikers cannot thrive in his system.

His system? Are we forgetting that Jpes adopted this ultra defensive strategy during the Afcon? I remember him playing 4-2-4 in a bid to accommodate our attackers and he was condemned.

Afcon viewership this year was mad. Whatever the organisers did to make this Afcon a global spectacle needs to be sustained subsequently.

The next year edition is in Morocco, I won’t be surprised to see lots of Europeans on summer holiday in Morocco next year because of Afcon. Flights tickets are very cheap for Europeans to Morocco. The Moroccans will surely take advantage of this.
Nigerians make a lot of buzz online. Would the competition garner the excitement it had if we were absent or exited early? I doubt.

But I don't support that loud mouthed boastfulness our people indulge in oo nevertheless it creates hype which is good for viewership
