if its negative we will go to CAS ASAP and this must be done before the playoff starts.

Whether positive or negative, the case will reach CAS.

U shouldn't be surprised. Remember the Enyema and Mikel saga. This was someone who we could infer cost us the 1994 WC QF ticket. First, he "allegedly" fought with Siasia before the Italy game thereby damaging team spirit. 2. He was the one that allowed the Italians to steal the ball and eventually equalize.

Finally, who resigns a few days before crucial qualifiers? Enough said.

I mentioned him before for his progress at Slavia feeders, today I mention him for goals...
18 y/o CM, Mubarak Suleiman scored a brace for Slavia Prague U19s in their 2-3 loss vs Benfica U19s in the Uefa Youth League.
Lad is actually a box-to-box midfield profile.

Let me add that Mubarak is a product of Right2Win Academy in Umuahia, Abia State.

Losers do win on appeal oo. New evidence will not be required but CAS will be required to look at FIFA's decision. That's how appeals work.

he did very well in Galatasaray too

Once he settles ..I believe he shld cook , Lookman is a confident and intelligent player. Highly intelligent

TheSuperNerd:
Not Nigerian football-related but it is about pitch quality. As you know our local players in the NPFL dare not slide on their home pitches. 😂

In Morocco, Akor could slide.... e.g. vs Algeria.

Now, in Brazil, in the Super Cup final between Brazillian & Copa Libertadores Champs, Flamengo and Challengers, Corinthians, Paulista go slide for pitch after scoring vs Flamengo and his knees hear am.


🗣️| Gabriel Paulista on his knee-slide celebration in the Brazilian Super Cup:

“When I scored, I celebrated by sliding. The guys said: ‘don’t do that, you’re not in Europe anymore’. Both my knees are now completely wrecked.”


Lesson: Be very aware of thy environment.

Secondary lessons is about having good pitches.

Back in those days, there was one particular field where we used to play football
I kid you not—about 99% of us came back home with bruises on our bum bum

Those bruises weren’t injuries…
They were badges of honor.
We even gave them a name back then — “Monkey Yansh” 😂😂

If you didn’t have it, were you really playing ball?
No. You were just jogging with vibes.

I won’t mention the field’s name
real ones will already know
Figure it out yourselves 😎

Lesson we learned the hard way:
Respect where you are.
Watch how people move there.

listen…
Europe is not Brazil.
Different pitch. Different rules. Different survival instincts 😂⚽️

Abi Nnadi go help us turn Nwaneri head to come play for Naija? 🤔

This man. I thought u gave up on Nwaneri.

Monkey Yansh. Hahahaha... I dont know if the field I am thinking is what you have in mind. But 99%... wow. That is a lot. Really good throwback.

might be unrealistic but 4 british countries holding the same power as fifa in football decision making is really crazy.

I really don’t know how the football world has allowed such a lopsided arrangement to be in place for a century!

The number of u25 talents playing 1st team football in Ligue1 mehnn....
The next big talents might come from there. And its not even PSG.

The rules guiding participation for top flight club football in Nigeria needs to change and asap. We can't be having such embarrassing moment in the middle of the season due to circumstances that could be avoided prior to promotion.

LMC get their own for body
Kun Khalifat get bigger one for body.


Its time to sort all these shenanigans and make all 20clubs agree. Let this nonsense remain in the 2nd division and let the legal framework also be in place so clubs can challenge some mishap.

That is why it is the famed league of talents. LIGUE 1 is the one league in the Top 5 leagues that gives far more gametime to U-23/U-21 Talents throughout a season than any other of the Big 5 leagues.

Like 18 y/o John Otomewo balling in Israel currently, 19 y/o Ridwan Popoola of Kisvarda (Hungary) is another talented Nigerian midfielder that I tip to make a decent move in good time.

🇳🇬🇨🇭 Tobias Chibuzo Okafor has several proposals after excellent impact in Super League.

Bundesliga and Serie A clubs keen with Premier League sides also attentive over potential future move.

His brother - Noah okafor openly declared his intention to play for Nigeria but was overlooked by the handlers of our team at that time.

I hope this one will be interested because our left back position needs a big improvement.

BTW, that Emeka Adiele boy that left Westhamp for Utretch should be poached by the NFF if they are serious about improving our team. Dude is quality and the best time to try to get these boys is once they move away from England.
