AIG07:
thanks for this info.
I was hoping Mbaoma will seal that deal with the Olukoya boys. That would have been +ve for him. I could remember He was one of the contender for the NPFL topscorer award in the early part of last season before he had injury. I hope he bounces back.

tglobal:
How is voting done on Nairaland? Can you please post a link to this?

Thanks

AIG07:
with the way things are, Elderson will be lucky to make it to Russia.

Danielnino00:
That's good news... Hopefully he will be our first choice LB starting this year... We don't need elder Echijele anymore if he doesn't pick up form..


I'm hoping Rohr's defense pick for the world cup is like this

Balogun
Ekong
Awazeim
Aina
Idowu
Ebuehi
Shehu
Omeruo or any other CB

junnyjake:
Under the new coach, Aina has consistently been playing at LB. And has been winning MOTM awards from that position too.

I pray he improves on his game so he can make that position his in the GWG shirt.

daveP:
These Croats and their loud mouth. I really want SE to deal with them bad.

Icon4s:
Wait. Abeg which Solanke?

First of all, before anything else, I just wanna apologise to the family of this thread for my long absence no thanks to the big issue of last time. Truth is, I should have made my return after we beat ARGENTINA in that top class friendly but I couldn't because I was so caught up in the business end of my scholarship studies for the year ending period of 2017. Aside that also, I was so locked up in some project plans and some more engagements. I just couldn't make out time for Socials anymore.

Thing is, I'm pass that dark issue now and I am back to say "It was a pleasure walking with several of you in 2017, I know the value of life and what it means to wake up everyday and still be alive. It is a miracle and a Joy that before I left back then, I had not witnessed the death of any one member. But from a quick scan backwards on this thread, I understand that lovely folks like Sir TheGoodJoe and one more moniker (was it Sir Do4LuV14? Please forgive me, I am not sure) lost their fathers. Please accept my condolences even though they come very late. And Sir TheGoodJoe, I am sorry that you had to go through that and I was not even around. I am sure your father was already proud of the fantastic, super intelligent and awesome man you have become and are still growing into. It is well Sir. And to the other fellow who witnessed same loss, I have no true words to say but it is well. Be strong. Make him smile even in his sleep with how you live and how you run this race called life. Just make him proud. All is well."


So yeah, to some who may be shocked to read my comments, I say, deal with it *Winks* *smiles* *rubs palms*

Sir Joseph1013, I got your mentions Sir. Please take very good care of you outside the shores of Nigeria, wherever you are. Without your threads discovered in 2015 by me via google, I would not be on NL. Thanks for your mentions and for somehow not judging me when I do get really pissed at some happenings here. When I walked in here, I address every one by the title of Sir because where I come from, it is a mark of respect not minding if I may be addressing my junior or senior. Well, how do I know? I am 25 now... lol To think I was 23 when I walked in on NL... cool memories.

Chief Icon4s, at least I told you something before. I told you that in the end, The passion and drive for the GWG won't keep me away for so long. But I really needed that break. But it is good to still see you and some beautiful others still digging it strong here on NL's best thread.

Sir Mujtahida, I got your mention(s) too. Thy poetic ingenuity mixed with the knowledge of one so versed in the words amd dynamics of history and world affairs make you one to always behold in writings. I told you when you walked in here that I could spot already thy poetic magnificence. Well, now that is super obvious to all. You nicknamed me VicMo of the thread one time. But with my absence and using Sir Komekn's analysis of a few months being like a year in football, then I wonder if such nickname still holds true.


Sir Joebie, My Joebie... Where is Madam? Gosh what is her moniker again? I call her the "My Joebie" Moniker. The ladies' man. Happy new year Sir. Read earlier this morning where you compared me to Vincent Enyeama.... Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha... and Sir Kennysville was like, "You never see anything" loooollll

You guys are fucking crazy I swear! Hahahahahahahahaha.... Me I no be Enyeama oooooo. For me, the whole is more important than the glory of one. I hope Enyeama can understand that. But somehow, when I was away, I had a hunch that soon someone may compare my absence to Enyeama's matter. Chaaaiiiiii... plssss oooo we are not on the same page.


To Safarigirl, NLSports' first lady. An Amazon in the midst of Men. Happy to see you alive and kicking well in 2018 too. Remember what I told you when I first met you? Okkkkaayyyy.. don't worry, that's for the closet.

To another beautiful mind on here... Maybe it is because his comments are not a as regular judging by what I have read in the past few pages this morning. Sir BascoVanVeli still remains of the most favorite persons I always wanna see comment. Funny how going by nominations I am seeing now that many do not seem to remember that BascoVanVeli is a champion for he homebased. Infact, one of the thread's undercard debate matches is most times between The amiable and Legendary Sir Tbaba1234 and Sir BascoVanVeli (Master of the sarcastic )

I just dey look una.

Sir Tbaba1234, Tbaba12345, should I add 6 & 7? Happy new year to you too. Still dropping those one or two lines as ever huh? This legend is super consistent.


My Happy new year messages go to you all.... I could write on each and everyone here. But please understand why some just have to get very special mentions.


Sir Terzurum5, Creator of NL's finest sports thread.

Sir Orkpekyandega, Where have you guys hidden this dude?

Sir Icon79, Sir, I think you Berra add "Not Icon4s" to your moniker to "dis-confuse" the newbies and some others still left on limbo on who is who between you two. looooll. Calls me nerdie. Hahahahahahahahaha...

Sir Omanbala1, Gosh... I just saw your post on that little thread of mine. Well, thing is, I have been away. I had a very very busy end to 2017 with all I was engaged with. And it was for the greater good of My Life Vision and all. But I just could not stay away from spending the new year with you guys after missing Christmas and after missing The Argentina game which was the perfect opportunity for me to nail the coffins of some negative monikers here always pulling the team down.

Sir Forgiveness, You ehn!!!! If I catch you ehn! See Baba mi.. Egbon Sir... Berra go borrow vest from Batman oooo because Ilẹ ti malu kan ko ni ibamu fun oju-ẹja ti ẹja.

Happy new year Sir Forgiveness . Missed you like kilode... Hahahahahahahahaha


Happy new year to you all.....

The Ever optimistic AIG07, The Prophetic Napoleon55, The Lovely and caring Madam Confun, The Ever Critical Sir Goldfish80 (one time he really hoped Mbappe played for Cameroon so that we may be sent to the cleaners! looollll... yes he is ever critical but maybe na him way of gauging against unforseen heartbreaks. But he and his super critical crew should always learn to give credits when our boys actually rise up to the occasion. Biaaaa Sir Goldfish80, this 2018 ehn, Make I no talk ), ehen uhmmm.... still on happy new year roll call....

Happy new year to....

The guy always playing the role of my antagonist... Mickael2 Lol, humans sef , the one and only Elder Sir Kog45 (One of the guardians of the lost-but-found classified trolls of Nigeria's Football history), the One called SoetanOreoluwa (I no go lie, your name hard me first time I see am..), the ever super critical master of The borough club located with headquarters in London and branches scattered all over UK, Sir Komekn himself

Happy new year also to.....

Sirs: Dr.Likita (I thought I saw "m" before "f"? :-/), Chrismario, Chriskels, Jihday, Do4Luv14, Jarus (So the big guy finally came here... lol. Good to see he is also "very critical." Lol), Mikron, Kennysville, Certitude, Taliban, Elyte89 (funny dude! Wetin be your own sef? Almost every mention from you is "I hope this won't turn out like TheSupernerd scenario." Abi you he history police? ), Maidaboi (This beautiful guy. Where are you? I've missed you) etc etc (Please, I have been away for long, recalling all monikers here is a big ask... gosh! plsss pardon me if I never mention your name),

(Recalled before posting) Sirs: Danycrusoe, Gbosaa, TGlobal, EnigmaticMotik, BigBlangston, etc etc... Bon Annee Messieurs.


Madams: Eseose9 (a ghost reader in 2017, biaaa upgrade in 2018 ooooo), and all female ghost readers like her.

And a big shout out to the all members of the Notorious Gang of silence upholding the flags and etiquettes of Silence and Stealth. #TheSilentCrew Una well done! Happy new year to una. But this year some of una must upgrade oooo. Haba! Silent crew for 15 years?? Nooooooo we cannot take this!



From TheSupernerd, loved by some, hated by some, and just not gotten/understood by a few others. To most, he is just TheSupernerd.

Choose love over hate. It makes you live longer. Happy new year to you all. I know there are a few here who would have love to hear my analysis on how I would have broken down the physics and magnificent angles to the execution of Iheanacho's freekick against World Class Argentina. Hey! I know okay. Deny it but I know

But in all.... what is this thread about? It is for the progression and the Glory of Nigerian football through all the seasons of the good, the bad and the ugly leading up to the transition from the maggot/caterpillar stage to the stage of the beautiful butterfly.

We are a team in evolution and we are young and threatening. I believe in this team and I know what our teamwork is capable of producing. So you can keep castigating and you can keep defending your favorite players but what truly matters is that this team grows into a formidably powerful force as a team.


The Super Eagles gave me cause to smile a lot last year and in Russia, I dare say you all (except a few) will be in for a shocker on what this team will go on to achieve. I just pray we maintain our rise and positive transformation.

It is finally here. The year of the big baptism of Nigeria's next golden generation.

Happy new year once again.

*And no apologies for the long essay. I will never change*

Icon79:
KC can definitely start for Everton, since they have no recognizable striker. Let's hope the rumor pans out.


O pari

daveP:
Modric will rule the world at russia, and england wil flop as usual. one of their ex-footballer says.

TheSuperNerd:
Thanks Dad.

Good to finally be back and just in time too. It is well with you and your family. 2018 shall remember you in many big ways. Take care Dad.

It is well. Still waiting for Sir TheGoodJoe.

jieta:
lolz.... my brother i dey with you. i just no fit wait for the day THE SUPER NERD and JOEBIE go get divert opinion about any issues e go be clash of the titans.

mikron:
welcome bck and happy new year to u my brother

TheGoodJoe:
Glad to have you back. The thread is definitely and can never be the same without you. Wishing you a successful and blessed 2018. This is a World Cup year and the Super Eagles will need all the support they can get. With you around, the vociferous support for the Super Eagles got a lot louder.

Welcome back. Sorry if I typed some mean things to you when the heat was on.

Sorry for replying late. I had such a busy day. BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.

TheSuperNerd:
My Big Brother, Special Buddy, Awesome Analyst, Super poster, Beautiful friend, Excellent mind..... what name can I call you again? *Yara Yara whispers* Ofcos, Yara Yara, thanks for the reminder, Uhmmmm... Babylonian talker. Looollll

Haaa.. Sir TheGoodJoe... come gimme a hug Sir. I have missed you.

This platform can only communicate what I type. But what I feel is beyond words. I really have missed you Old friend and Kung-Fu master. I read about your loss. I am really so sorry. It is well Sir.


And no need for the apology. It is I who owe you one. What you said was in the spur of the moment but again I don't recall you being mean. You were just not happy with the whole thing so I understand perfectly.

I wish I could hug you for real Sir. A real hug. Thanks for being a really fine part of my 2017. It can only get better this year.

Thanks for the Welcome Sir TheGoodJoe. And More power to you at work and more. All is well.

Been waiting for you like God knows what... Happy to finally see you again.

TheSuperNerd:
Yaaaaayyyyy!!!! Sir Mikron!

Awwwwwwwwn Happy new year Sir. Good to see you too. Thanks ooooo... kaaaiiii how u dey naa?

AIG07:
don't forget that ISLAM SLIMANI too is an amazing player who has played topflight football for so many years before moving to Leicester. He might not be cutting it now just like Nacho too. But that doesn't make him a shitty player.

tbaba1234:
Efe does not make silly errors

In terms of errors, Omeruo is better.

Danielnino00:
@Bolded tell them oo ... All these pro foreign born wanna try and force the young ones on us..

Funny thing is,a lot of people here don't believe that we can win the world cup .. So what's the use of sending lots of rookies there??

Let's use the AFCON qualifier to test the level of commitment of these players and not just the world cup alone..

oloriooko:
No one is saying he should not go to the WC but he cannot be at his best if he doesnt have playing time at his club. The best way to assess a player is what he does at his club and presently Nacho is warming bench.

Dont even try to say he does not fit to the coachs' tactics that is just pathetic
About freekicks it will surprise you we have other takers in the team, so what happens if he gets injured in the WC?
