France & Argentina still my top2 favourites for the Cup.

Gabriel and Halland to continue where they stopped with Arsenal and Manchester City

0Brien:
They grew up in an environment with systems where that skill was nurtured and developed right from childhood, even in their schools. If they had grown up in Africa, it would be a different story.

Most Africans only grew up playing football on the streets. These Europeans have been playing professionally from childhood

Stop this STIPID overhyping of those people. There is absolutely nothing special about them just that we refuse to think critically is the only difference.

James O'Brien is my favourite OAP on LBC

For the past hundred years Africans are always learning. We nor dey graduate?

You only graduate when you die.

Even the whites have a "lessons learnt" in all their approaches and methodologies.

Stop disparaging Africans!

MT:
Congrats to the Congolese - hats off for them.

They were in the fight till the last.

They would learn from this experience.

Well done England. Be ready to be tested by the Mexican in their fortress of a stadium

Which fortress of a stadium? Is the match not played in America?

Omoawoke:
It’s so obvious the commentators, and the entire stadium is against Congo.. lol… even fifa president is sitting down with arsene wenger

As dey see Congo an African country was about dropping one of their best after Morocco dropped Holland, they were going insane

Na Dem also tell Congo to play nonsense and defend nonsense...

LordLicifer:

No.

Estadio Asteca stadium in Mexico - their record there is legendary

Mexico has been unbeatable, it will be hard for England to face them.

LordLicifer:

Nope... In Mexico City.

This tournament is hosted by North America, not America only (pun unintended).

So, America (US), Canada and Mexico.

James O' brien that loud mouth? The man thinks he is so liberal, always accusing Trump of lying even though he liar himself. Did you know that his real name is actually Dave O' brien.


You should listen to Nick Ferrari he is the award winner on LBC.

Angelfrost:
Nope... In Mexico City.

really? How come?

LordLicifer:
really? How come?

North America is hosting, not just America.

USA
Canada
Mexico

ppogba:
Which one of the three you mentioned had a spectacular season?

Ok nah, we have seen the ones with spectacular season struggling for England now.

Angelfrost:
Nope... Not speed, but football intelligence.

The fastest and most skilled players are either African or of African descent.

Africans need to sharpen their football skills by improving their approach to the game.

Only Morocco understands this.

STOP THIS "AFRICANS" NONSENSE.

IN FOOTBALL YOU LOSE GAMES, SOMETIMES DUE TO SHEER BAD LUCK, EG WISA'S BALL THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN 2-0 CONGO.

OR DUE TO THE FACT UNLIKE YOUR TEAM, YOUR OPPOSITION HAS A SPECIAL STRIKER LIKE HARRY KANE.

OR MBAPPE.

OR VINICIUS.

OR HAALAND.

OR MESSI.

NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE A PROBLEM IF YOUR OPPOSITION HAS A PLAYER LIKE THAT.

Angelfrost:
What depth sir?!! Those defenders sitting on the bench were there for what?!! Decoration?!!

Stop excusing mediocrity abeg.

No wonder Morocco has left the rest of you Africans behind.

Why don’t you go kick the ball if you knew any better…

Congo played very well today and they are meeting one of the best teams in the world…
Why didn’t you cry when Croatia lost 4-2 to them?
It’s not about mediocrity, it’s about making use of what they have and they did everything…

You are comparing Congo to England where they have the resources and funding for talent development and have primier league to Congo that has been exploited and still being exploited for years… maybe you don’t know what’s happening in Congo presently

Rayjay45:
No worry, na Mexico go fix them up for R16.

That game fit no go as you expect o. In football the more you progress the more changes dey. No two matches are the same

Angelfrost:
North America is hosting, not just America.

USA
Canada
Mexico

Okay, i didn't know this. Cheers!

Wissa no go fit sleep well tonight. He should have scored that goal and put this game to bed

Lol
Dont be too harsh on them.
We Africans are a generally emotional and reactionary people ( I hope i am not being discriminatory) .Our thoughts will be calmer and rational in a few hours time

yes, that would have given Congo 2 goals

but their goalie stopped 3 goals.

Wotowotoman:

I think DRC should have won this match they were just afraid to tackle the England players and they were also tired. They did really really well.

Kudos to them!

you know dem put USA for the easiest group.
so also Canada

Unfortunately you don't have any comprehension skills that is the reason you cannot understand my comment.
We play a lot of matches and do our best but we still end up losing this is very common with African teams that is what I meant by "we nor dey graduate"?
Thanks for reminding me to stop disparaging Africans I never knew that I was a white man you just reminded me today.

dominique:
African teams need to rid themselves of this inferiority complex mentality when playing European teams. They play like they're afraid to go full attack.

God will bless you a million times for this! You indeed echoed my mind. I don't know why African teams will keep respecting these big European teams. Look at how they played England in the first 10mins of the game. And after the goal came, they switched off.

I am really pissed with Doctor Congo right now, honestly! I mean, how could they respect England that much??

Omor...it will take a very lonnnnnng time before Africa will win the WC, let's not deceive ourselves!

Look at Ivory Coast too yesterday against Norway.

MT:
What are you trying to say with the bolded?

An African man saying this about himself.

Look yourself in the mirror, what do you see?

I am a special breed of the black race.


Every animal and human race have their special breed who don't share 100% traits with the original breeds, I am one of those special breeds of the black race

Lekan239:
imagine it was all those players not informed that tuchel took to the tournament, players like palmer, foden. Players who has hardly score a goal this year. They would have probably loss this game against Congo, or at worst got to PK

My friend will you keep kwayet, those players would have created chances upon chances than what we saw now.
Did you see England do anything from middle apart from going wide and relying on crosses

MLS players. how South Africa lose to them still dey shake my head

Christlike01:
Just leave that Canada; Morocco will teach them an unforgettable lesson of their lives.

France & Argentina still my top2 favourites for the Cup.

Where's Portugal in ur list?

0Brien:
It's lack of skill and tactics. See the French team almost all blacks, and black players featuring prominently in other Eupean teams.

I actually believe blacks are physically stronger and faster. What we lack is poor investment in sports. These things has to start from the grassroot.

See the way Americans dominate in basketball, American football, and baseball, while Europeans lead in football/soccer.

When South Africa was eliminated, I wrote: "Other African teams will also start dropping out in short order. African teams are still playing amateur football that relies on skill and athletism. The only African country that seem to have figured out world class soccer is Morocco. For some strange reason, other African countries can't figure it out. Morocco will go furthest than all African countries because they are playing the game exactly the way world class teams do."

sweetjohn:
Oga favourite were chosen before the competition start not when it has started. Before the World Cup the most favorite were Portugal France, England, and Argentina

Thank you for telling him

Don't twist it. It's obvious you are trying to put a spin on it.

You are an African who is subservient to the whites. Improve on your self worth
