My brother...
We don chop humble pie oh
If we see 1:0 like this, we go collect
Make we sha win
Abeg help us beg Chelle and the boys

hahahaha. I tell you. My prediction is 1-0 or 2-1 for Nigeria. This set of players are not like the old guys. As long as we get 6 points We good.

JohnBullMySon:
Apologies open the door for litigation.

Rule is rule sha

mostob:
Bro, I just need two clarifications from you.

1. Where was it said that FIFA communicated to RSA that the player been discussed is eligible? A link or a legit source will be appreciated.

2. In reference to (1), are you saying Rohr/NFF deliberately played Shehu even after FIFA already communicated his ineligibility? Or let's assume that FIFA made a mistake by saying he was eligible when he is not, why then were we punished for the offence?

Inasmuch as we all want the best for the super eagles
Complaining about 3 points deduction looks shameful to me Sha.

Even if FIFA will deduct points it will be after the whole tournaments not now.

Why can't we just win our games and qualify with honour?

MKPUOGALIGA:
Jackson is a player loaded with many skills and tricks.....things just didn't workout at Chelsea FC.

which skills and trick, I've always said it that the Jackson I watch at villareal is not a player ill rate as a top top stricker, an OK stricker, yes

The truth is we should also be hoping that SA drops points here and there. Else, na them serious pass for this qualification thing.

Meliforme:
I am actually being positive. You see when you call a black kettle, a black kettle, you are saying things exactly as they are.
Osimhen was the difference maker.

Not Eric Chelle's ingenuity.

Chelle played the Unity Cup and Russia too with like a very almost entire new set of Super Eagles players and didn't lose any match.

I don't think Finidi George and Eguavoen can pull that off. Only Osimhen no dey all of them dey lose and draw matches, ONLY Osimhen. Chelle played the Unity Cup and friendly without:

Ola Aina
Bassey
Ekong
Iwobi
Lookman
Osimhen
Onyemaechi
Onyedika
Onyeka

Chukwueze was even absent in the friendly
Nwabali absent in the friendly too

And we scored and didn't lose any match, Osimhen was good in the two World Cup qualifiers he played, he should always be good, it's what he does consistently. It doesn't mean the coach didn't have any effect on the game.

Oh man I'm ACTIVE ‼️🙃🇳🇬🦁

😂 na the way the boys sef Dey waka don make lose hope sef chai these current team no get killer instinct at all, nothing wey coach fit do o! Anything wey we see make we collect am like that!

However pleasant Surprises are always welcome!

https://bsnsports.com.ng/post/2026-W-Cup-Qualifier--Crisis-Rocks-Nigeria-s-Group-As-Lesotho-Threaten-South-Africa-Over-Mokoena. Isnt dropping the same as serving his suspension?. Do they have a case here?

Odunayaw:
Jackson in the Bayern of this world?

Life is not 2+2 walahi

they have signed choupo before. Jackson shouldn't surprise you

JohnBullMySon:
I think I’ve said what happened here. FIFA officials misreported Mokoena as eligible.

That’s why SA played him. SA played him under the assumption that he was eligible because FIFA didn’t mark him ineligible as they usually did.

I Dey talk am before say na 50:50 but una choose to believe the one una like. Person say na after final round. Like does that even make any sense?

why was south africa saying that the fault was from the person on their end not checking it before the match started. FIFA has to mark a player ineligible before he can miss a match?. Person wey get two yellow cards?

Osimhen, Lookman, Iwobi, Aina, Bassey were the players absent in the friendly games and unity cup tourney.
The rest featured in either or both.

We have the players that can make things happen.
We just need the right mind to lay down the plan and the preparations.

My brother..
Let's just win fes

Lesotho should do themselves a favour by avoiding defeat against South Africa tomorrow and wait for their 3 points later.

Chelle has not done bad so far. That's the point.

Just two competitive games played? 1 win, 1 draw? You're calling for his head already?

I don d!e 😂

While winning games can be a yardstick for assessing a coach's ability, It is however not the true litmus test.
Eric Chelle's tactical decisions leaves a lot to be desired.

Improvement is a possible for any person,
I hope to see how he organises the personnel he selects and his approach to the game on Saturday.

Osimhen's presence will always be felt in any setup. As for Eric Chelle, my previous points about him still stand.

Lesotho avoid defeat ke
Lesotho is South Africa, South Africa is Lesotho

I honestly see no reason am independent country will be inside another country

Okay.

I really wish moses Simon doesn't start any of our games, his recent performance in this qualifying phase hasn't been encouraging at all,
Too casual and plays without any sense of urgency

I go lie for you?

I think you should read my actual stance on this whole deduction and qualifications.

BankyGee:

😂😂😂
Omo!

Lesotho are not serious. You didn't protest when South Africa use ineligible player to play against your team, you are saying if they play the same player in their game tomorrow, you will protest. That's foolishness for me.

It's not foolishness. They are playing mind games. I'm sure they don't even have the ambition of going to the world cup They are basically like younger brother to SA. They don't want to anger them. You can see how they are having their home games in SA and all that. Lesotho depends on SA. So I guess they don't want to spoil the relationship

I am in agreement but, Lookman has not been active. Moses Simon to start, Lookman can come in the second half.

Jackson is a very good player, he's a tireless worker and got good fitness record

I’m happy with the forwards list

I’d have loved Moffi & Ejuke to be added
We need pace & dribblers. Ejuke and Tella keep getting sidelined

Is the Nigerian guy at Espérance good enough to make the Eagles list ?

Benjamin Fredericks is good on the ball but he isn’t that big or frightening enough for a centre back

Glad Awaziem is back but I hope he’s match fit, got pace & quick at decision making this time around unlike the Mali friendly

Just curious how Uche would be used, dude is a ball carrier

We really need more competition amongst the centre backs & creative midfielders

Uche, Iwobi, Dele Bashiru & Chukwueze would be our creative outlets from the middle
