WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE NIGERIAN PLAYER OF ALL TIME?

I started watching SE in the early 2000s but all SE cassettes I watched of the 90s, na Papilo gimme joy pass.

Goke7:
Exactly even if Lookman scored that hatrick in a champs league final or word cup sef he won’t still enter top 10. All na advert and marketing runs and deals.

TheSuperNerd:
League goals only:

Weah scored 7 in 34 league games in 94/95 for PSG.

Scored 11 in 26 games in 95/96 for Milan.

Osimhen, Eto'o, Drogba, Salah have all surpassed this mediocre statistic yet couldn't bag the FIFA award or Ballon Dor. If both awards were being real then Weah's win was a sham. It was all inclusivity-driven.

And now they will use that as shield to anyone saying they were biased towards Vinicius Jr in 2024.

The politics at the top runs deeper than many eyes can see. There are reasons for some decisions even at the top echelon of football dating far back.

Osaze another of my favourite after his 2goals against SA.

I bin think say na only blue font be problem but this last 24 hours don prove say dem plenty pass one.

Abeg now e don do.

TheSuperNerd:
Even the Number 1 Chess player in the world, Magnus Carlsen of Norway offers his support to Vinicius Jr as he also thinks Vini Jr was deserving the Ballon D'or. This Rodri win is truly divisive. Massively divisive and Rodri is a player I like and rate as possibly the best CDM in world football today and an important part of the MAN CITY SUPER TEAM.


PS: Can't post a pic of it as NL is acting funny.

I think Xabi Alonso was robbed of the Best Coach of the year award.

Bayer Leverkusen won the club's first Bundesliga title after going unbeaten through out the season ,
They won the DFB Pokal, and only lost one game (the Europa League final) in 53 games last season 😮

Has any coach ever had such a fantastic record in a season?

TheGoodJoe:
So this Euro year, Rodri who was fantastic in all competitions, pulled nice stars for a midfielder, and iced his performances by being the best player of the Euros. I mean best player of the Euros.

After all that stunt with Messi to rob Haaland, do you expect the same people to ignore Rodri being the Euro 2024 player of the tournament.

Vinicius Jr. should clean his tears, lace his boots to end this season with a bang. As for last season, it was Rodri.

TheGoodJoe:
When Haaland was a key player in Manchester City winning the League, FA Cup and Champions League. He broke the English Premier League highest goal scorer record. He was highest goal scorer in The Champions League. He was also the highest goal scorer in European club football that year.

However, he was snubbed and the award given to Messi for winning World Cup.

Manchester City did not throw tantrums or avoid award. Haaland even congratulated Messi after he won it.
