Goke7:


don't try to rewrite history to suit your narrative, the games we played in the first round of AFCON 2013 were boring to the extent we all lost hope before the quarter-final match against CIV reports had it that the NFF had reserved air tickets for the entire team back to Nigeria before the match against CIV, that's how poor we were then.

Keshi won. Once you win in naija, that's all that matters. Effort, learning from experience, opportunity to improve means nothing to them. That's why after every tournament we begin afresh again. You see what Senegal did with Aliu Cisse before he eventually won the Afcon? That can never be naija.

Ppogbae:


He now has 11 goals in 15 matches

Plus 3 assists, that's a 0.99 goal contribution per match ratio 🫡

charlesemeka85:
I don’t know why I am not a big fan of that Martinez guy

I prefer his striking partner Thuram. That guy is good and underrated

Thuram is a very very good player, just not clinical enough to lead the line himself. But he links up very well with the rest of the front line.

lbrichman2:

Bros abeg Martinez too far 22 and 11 no be mate o

We go see how6e go
Make Napoli dey feed VO well, we go see how good that Martinez be

Odunayaw:
"he should score more goals, it's not a strong side"

Finished man

I think say na only me notice that jaundiced slant from bitterleaf fc

Princezibk:
Pls stop being this way 🙏

It’s really disgusting 🤮
Probably you’re that way real life , dmso you can’t be straightened anymore…

Bitterleaf will always be bitter even if you wash it.

The bolded is one of the reasons we underperform at AFCON.

If this crop of SE was being managed by say Senegalese FA, we could run the next 3-4 AFCONs. The squad and players are there as evidenced in our last final appearance. The issue is continuity post tournament.

joelsteron:
Napoli making me believe super Eagles have serious and crazy Midfield problem.

Running into spaces, one-touch football, passing precision are what our midfielders are lacking.

Wingers do not release the ball quickly enough.

Bannedlargedx2:
Congratulations on osimehn performance today great goals

Something he couldn't do against Ghana. 😡

We are magical in our thinking. We always want results without realizing that generally many factors converge to produce results - time, dedication, experience, effort etc.

Many of our commenters here sneer at our getting silver this Afcon because according to them we have gotten silver and even won as champion before.

Haaa, so France will sneer at the valiant effort of the French team after being defeated at the WC because they have won the WC twice before?

Every new generation of a nation's players must hustle their hustle and we cannot deride their good effort by merely brushing it off with the better performance of past generations.

The same French, Spanish and German players who won France 98, SA 2010, Brazil 2014 were kicked out first round in 2002, 2014 and 2018.

Whether we have won as champions before, will never make me look at the effort this team put in with a small eye. That will be rank ungratefulness unworthy of a true fan. I appreciate them and will keep appreciating their valiant efforts.

Meanwhile jpes has learnt something valuable from this Afcon ooo but we will not benefit from it if he goes away. And another coach will come, try his best, lose, get sacked or leaves the job and the circle continues as we continue to look for a Fae who will win at first try

Princezibk:
And some bad belle said he no get consistency 🥱🥱

I’m bewildered 😳
From Belgium to France now Italy 🇮🇹 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

I don't fancy contemporary Nigerian music. Never fancied it from it's infancy with guys like Plantashun boiz, the remedies, African China etc till now that it has matured but I can't deny that our music has become a global brand.

A player like Osimhen that even as an u-17 player Fifa has a dedicated video for him and the guy has grown winning significant laurels since that time, then one bitterleaf man will allow prejudice and emotive bias to blind him from acknowledging the quality Osimhen possesses. It's such a shame

ChrisKels:

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yea, he will guarantee you goals against the likes of Lesotho,chievo, São Tomé, salenita, cremonese but when it comes to do or die matches, he usually goes quiet. Today performance was world class sha

e be like say me and u na the same wen it comes to music

Our artists I agree are good and making waves all over the world but I hardly play their songs unless maybe burna boy, Tems , Wiz n few others once in a while


The one with too much hype n noise who I don’t rate at all na Davido. Nice guy and very accommodating but music wise he is wack

na wetin dey pain me be this, that his tactics will work with a team that has enough ball-playing players that don't lose possession easily in the midfield. No wonder the North Africans went for him cos it suits their kind of playing pattern.

I wonder how he’ll be in real life ☹️

He need to be significantly Ignored henceforth, let him keep it up … For years now I have being a ghost reader & do contribute once a blue moon 🌚

He’s one of the monikers here that I find nauseating and terrible 😣… But I’m not surprised, people like him are surrounded by us ,,, so it’s best we ignore them at times

I'd rather listen to Rex Jim Lawson and Ositadebe or Sunny Ade or Fela than listen to Wizkid, Davido or Burnaboy. I find it hard to swallow contemporary Nigerian music. I don try as per its popular but e no just dey enter me.

But these guys are global superstars. They even perform at global events. That's how big they are.

I no like am no mean I won't acknowledge their effort. To deny it means I have no respect for hard work and consistency

So what?

Something of more than three years ago you turn an to music.

Even the guy was still on ascendency and you're busy comparing him to the present.

You are so correct. We should be learning from our experience in this last AFCON and build from there. Sometimes you will miss the title the first time but that experience of loss will propel you forward.

This happens many times in life. Bro anybody that has acquired experience in any field of human endeavor will surely acknowledge that truly experience is not just the best teacher, experience is the teacher.

Let me tell you something. That goal Maradona scored against England in Mexico 86. He had done something similar to that before but the keeper saved it at the last minute because he delayed. So against Peter shilton he relied on experience and quickly slotted it in.

I wish you were Igbo bro, I believe you would love cultural and Igbo highlife musics like I do. I don’t listen to Afrobeats.

On my playlist are men like Osadebe, Sir Warrior, Oliver De Coque, Don Sach and his Oriental brothers, Emeka Morocco, Ozoemena Nsugbe, Ayaka, Pericoma, Chief Michael Udegbi, Theresa Onuorah, ndi iyom Nkwerre etc.


Omo I gave one U23 girl a lift one certain time and I was playing my favorite “Alusi Obeledu” by chief Ozoemena Nsugbe and this girl get mind tell me say make I change the music for all these their awantiro na so my face change.
