Aston Villa will easily win this Europa league. Unai Emery does not miss the opportunity with a Villa Club. He is UEL-inevitable. Lol

2-0 already HT vs Atubolu and Freiburg.

TheSuperNerd:
I don congratulate am privately

After you don collect ya winnings ng come pay tithe ooo 😁

did we dodge bazooka with Atubolu?

TheSuperNerd:
He played Fisayo at RB vs Egypt in the 3rd placed game (No jokes though, it happened).

But among the defenders, I think Igoh and Fernandez can makeshift there as they have featured there before at club level at some point in their careers (rarely so though). Alhassan in midfield has also featured there when tactically needed.

Broo!!!

Broo!!!

bet those goals are crazy goals. I was being too hard on him.

This otubulu of freiburg is not even better than Okoye and Nwabali. We don't need him.

AndSunGorilla:
@odunayaw, up suuting!!! What's your assessment of Ayobami?

One of those we wished they took to CHAN so I can assess him on a bigger stage. Because I no fit lie, the standard of the league at the back of my mind makes it difficult to rate outfield player.

Oseni Owen is an English division three player

Good list; the goalkeeping department is as strong as it has been in years. Maduka Okoye, Author Okoronkwo, and Stanley Nwabili are the best trio I have seen since I started following the Super Eagles in the early '90s. The CD positions are very strong too. Emmanuel Fernandez, Calvin Bassey, Chibuike Nwaiwu, Benjamin Fedricks, and Vince Osuji are the strongest we have been in the CD position since our golden generation of the 90s. The right-back position is very good when Ola Aina becomes available. The left-back position needs improvement. I don't really think that Eric Chelle sees both Bruno Onyemachi and Sanusi as starters in the Super Eagles he is trying to build. Both of them are really backups, and I know he is desperately looking for a starter in that left-back position. The midfield is getting really strong and promising. Tochukwu Nnadi, Ebenezer Akinsamiro, Victor Eletu, and Israel Isaac Ayuma's development will take that midfield to another level. I don't really understand what Victor Eletu is doing in AC Milan's U23. He needs to go out on loan to the Netherlands, Belgium, or even Switzerland to continue on his football development. Suleman Sani and Ademola Lookman on the left and Zadok Yohanna and Chuwueze on the right will give the Super Eagles a devastating wing play in the coming years. The strikers' position is very strong. The future looks bright. NFF Please, in the name of God, allow this man to mold this team into a formidable force in world football.

Na Osigwe own pain me pass, we really miss out on him

Promise Meliga, 18 subbed in on 64mins as his side, Kristiansund secured a 2-1 away win at Kparobo's Lillestrom in the Norwegian Eliteserien.

21y/o CDM, Wilfried George Igor played all 90 for Kristiansund (A bonafide regular) and impresses solidly.

Attacker, Mustapha Isah, 21 subbed in on 60mins for Kristiansund.

Kparobo Arierhi, 19 subbed in on 88mins.

@bold, I'd argue that Enyeama+Ejide+Aiyenugba of the late 00s to early 2010s were a more potent trio, but that's just my thoughts.

SymphonyRad:
What's up with Ryan Alebiosu, Felix Agu, Nathan Tella and Benjamin Frederick?

Ryan - injury


Nathan Tella - injury

Benjamin Fredrick - just dey recover from injury same with Benjamin Fredrick

Thank you my brother!!! Up suuting!!!!!

Egypt's WC Squad... 2026

27-man list... one will be cut, likely the 4th GK

Barcelona B's Hamza Abdelkarim makes it.

2 dutch-Nigerians, Right-back, Precious Ugwu, 20 and Midfielder, Gibson Yah, 22 played all 90mins as their team, FC Volendam beat Willem II 2-1 away in the first leg of the Eredivisie Promotion playoffs final.

2nd leg is May 23.

Hmm,your judgement on goals or his overall performance?how many of his matches did you watched...if Okoye can make it from regional league with eagles,now Arthur Okonkwo from championship,Atubolu from bundesliga is welcome....how do you see it having Seria A and bundesliga keepers in national team

lbrichman2:
Nothing like hate
Okoye will be our starting keeper for now
He's a hardworking guy, and I believe if he continues working, there's no limit to how good he can become..

For now, Nwabali trumps him based on recent NT performances
Okoye will come good
He's putting in the work

Still if Nwabali is available and match fit, I'd prefer him in goal to Okoye for now
In the future, anything can happen..

Bro what you are criticizing and the way you even worded it shows your true intentions.

There's wasn't much of an error there and the dishonest thing about this is that Nwabali is not even very good in parring the ball in the proper direction (if direction of parry is the so-called mistake here). Nwabali has good reflexes but the parries sometimes are not good at all.

Half of Okoye criticism here comes from personal dislike. You guys won't just admit it. Even if Okoye becomes one number 1, there will be someone in the corner praying for a big mistake that will return him to the bench.

I agree. My own is to have an account number to pay in the money. The collation officers should do well to handle other processes.

If you are saying half of Okoye criticism here comes from hate,do we say half of Nwabali criticism comes from hate too....the man you quoted is one of the neutral guys here,well i will not blame Okoye for the goal but next time he would do better,goalkeeping is difficult...this season is a massive one for him and one of the best after Enyeama heroic season with Liile by any Nigeria keeper.

Also he is still very young

I mean young talented prospects from academies not 23 year old playing in league 4 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nigeria’s AFCON legacy speaks for itself. Generations of talent, unforgettable moments, and a football culture admired across Africa. The Super Eagles always bring energy and pride to the game 👏
