Una no dey ever talk about iwobi
Iwobi is a veteran in that team but he plays like he just got his first call up yesterday lol

He can't give a good pass when we're on counter he hit the ball like it's an egg chaii

Since 2015 iwobi made his debut he hasn't improved for the super eagles

Nothing concern me and his club performance when we reach there we go talk about am

The Wrexham goalie Arthur Okonkwo is another quality option.

Nwabali is a ticking time bomb so Chelle needs to scout for a goalkeeper urgently the way Peseiro scouted Nwabali.

Costa Rica might not come for playoffs as they might top their group and qualify directly.
In our simulation let us not forget the mistake of thinking about BRAZIL when we have not surmounted DENMARK a la FRANCE 98. THE PLAYERS WE HAVE ARE UP TO THE TASK AND GOD WILL HELP US.
Costa Rica and Curacao are the two teams coming to the intercontinental playoffs going by this table

We wish all representatives well but truth be told you did not do excellently well giving the advantage of 7home matches. Were Osimhen present against you in South Africa the story would have been different. Had every team played their home matches in their country, chances are that NIGERIA might not have been in the playoffs but would have qualified directly.STOP OVERHYPING BAFANA BAFANA but do a truthful analysis during and after the Nations Cup.
Of a truth, your development has been outstanding but not near NIGERIA in terms of the Senior Teams. Rest awhile from our Convo as Nigerians if you may.
1. Show me where I hyped Bafana ? I have always maintained that our team is still on developmental stages and we are happy with it's progress so far. Never had I ever claimed our team to be a top African team,but we are happy with the fact that we are climbing up the ranks and challenging the historically better teams head-on.

2. Nigeria has beat South Africa before in South Africa, but in recent matches that's proving more and more difficult for you. And we are now even winning against you in your backyard, so quit acting as if the only reason we qualified was because we played a lot of matches here. And if you were as competent as you were expected to be,you wouldn't even care about that . You are simple looking for easy excuses to hide your own shame. By the way did you not see that half of the stadiums were filled with people from those countries,? That's why they were comfortable playing here,they have too many citizens here than even in their own countries grin cheesy

3. The fact that you always need Victor around is an indictment of how far you have fallen as a team,that's why you all thought we would suffer against Rwanda because our star defender was given a red card,guess what ? We are a team. South Africa isn't a country of stars but a country that seeks to give everyone a chance to develop themselves. We can't rely on one man. That's selfish .

4. And for the umpteenth time....yes,you're still ahead of us in football. But we are closing the gap in ranks gradually, whilst you're still singing in my time or " had it been the 94 squad " grin. No position is permanent and definitely not in sports wink

Looking at it, we might have still qualified even if we conceded 1 goal yesterday. A 4-1 victory would have meant we tie with burkina faso on goal difference, goal scored and goal conceded. Their 18 yellow cards would have been their undoing. At least this type of calculation is over till we start another qualifiers series in 2027.

NOT YET. 2 MORE MATCHES LEFT. CHECK THE REMAINING FIXTURES AS THAT WILL GIVE A CLUE. DON'T FORGET THE MADAGASCAR SITUATION WHERE THEY NEEDED A WIN ON THEIR LAST MATCH TO MAKE PLAYOFFS WITH 16POINTS AND MALI WHO WERE ALREADY OUT OF CONTENTION DISPATCHED THEM READILY

Can you tell us why you have not qualified or reached the last stage of qualification since you hosted it in 2010? Let's check something about the 7home matches you are discarding as not being a gift.

He's the goalkeeper for Kaizer Chiefs in South Africa. Make of that what you will especially when we've seen same guy make unbelievable saves in previous matches.

We were simply BAD and uncoordinated. We have fixed that ,now we need to develop more strikers to find the back of the net( that's where I think we lack the most now) . Like I said we are developing, and part of developing is learning from one's mistakes and fixing them up as you go. This world cup tournament is a chance for us to do just that.
Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by minfelix(m): 9:02am On Oct 15, 2025
with the way Eric Chelle’s Mali played at the Afcon, if he had started this Qualifying campaign with us, walai, our group leadership gap with SA,Benin and Rwanda would have been like heaven and earth..

This Eric chelle will beat all the teams in that our group home and away maybe a draw in SA sha, but you see all this teams…
The way he started his campaign against Rwanda away in 2-0 win was a ruthless one…Even without Osimhen in those first 4games there is no way Chelle would have lost away toBenin, or draw Lesotho in Nigeria….Osimhen was substituted very early in the first half against a stubborn Rwanda side but managed to get us a “Tolu” to do the job.
A coach that could identify talent and give a cal up to:
Akor Adam
Benjamin Frederick
Felix Agu
Tolu etc
will not rest until he gets an almost new starting 11 of new fresh talents…

I am wondering why these guys Fredrick and Akor Adams were never invited before the last two matches ? I believe inviting wrong players cost us automatic qualification. Moreso the draw against Zimbabwe cost the ticket .. however thanks 🙏 to Eitrea who withdrew
Why should akor adams be invited before the last 2 games ?

He has been battling injuries at Sevilla since he joined and only scored his first goal for them recently and his second against Barca 2 weeks back

I think you're getting desperate now. Because I have clearly Said that we were one of the "minnows " of Africa and we were getting bytch-slapped by all the big teams even teams like Zim but not anymore. And you are still going around digging up our past fckeries to prove what ? grin

We have similar sentiments. It would be hard for you to ever go back to your 94 glory where you could walk on the heads of all African teams, not with the individuality and selfishness of your current eagles. And also your NFF is incompetent and disorganised . Whilst we are making heads roll with SAFA for their stoopid blunder that cost us 3 points , you should also be looking at dissolving that NFF; a totally wack gathering if you ask me. You have a lot of talented players but your management skills are totally dismal.

At your last point....I agree.
