We seem to have a short memory. 2 years ago, we were all clamouring for a new goalkeeper. We felt that Okoye failed us by conceding a tame goal against Tunisia in the 2021 Nations cup and Uzoho doing same against Ghana in 2022 world cup qualifiers against Ghana. The last straw was when Uzoho punched the ball into his own net against saudi Arabia. Nwabali came to the rescue and has performed creditably since the. I do not like his attitude also but he seems to be our best bet for now. A tournament is not a testing ground. If injured, let the coach pick another person but we need to be careful not to throw out the baby with the bath water. We still need Nwabali for now. This is the link to the match where Uzoho punched the ball into his own net -

But when he dey stop penalty for last AFCON and this past playoffs, you dey house dey shout say na correct keeper. Na wa o sad
Saving penalty is not the test of a good goal keeper and I never really see him as a good goal keeper even during the last afcon he was average at best and now he's worse shipping goal like a striker. He might be impressing to those who have average knowledge of football but technically he's a poor goal keeper and his self inflicted injury when he clumsily twisted his own ankle and knee when he rushed out of goal despite his defenders around him could have cost us another goal against Tunisia.

Omo ise, I understand that you're hurt. Dont always be like the average Nigerian who hails men when things tickle their fancy and they cry and rant when it is no longer smooth.

People like you criticize Osimhen when he is not at his top but applause him as the best striker in the world when he's doing fine. We know you, just grow up.
Man what the hell are you talking about? Nwabali good? I have never rated him, not even at the last Afcon when some people were singing his praise. Guy makes many schoolboy errors to be called a professional goalkeeper. If he really were that good, he wouldn't still be playing in the South African league up till this point.
And as for Osimhen, best striker in the world? You are having a laugh.

Lol......I've probably been watching football before you were born.

The first world cup I watched featured Paolo Rossi of Italy.

I was watching the English Premier League when Fashanu was still playing.

The show was called "Big League SOCCER" and featured all the leagues on the globe.

'Nuff said.
All these genZs and nonsense talks. If you are as smart as you portray yourself to be, then you should know that since time immemorial, players have been feigning injuries and sicknesses to avoid matches. And be found out later.

Tevez is a typical example. Neymar is..even more recently your current balon d'or winner.

But you decided to say a lot without making any type of sense. Like I said, I won't take someone who calls FOOTBALL soccer serious.
