Mujtahida:Yeah, but I hope you understand what I really mean by the hammer of truth. You see when Jesus called the scribes or was it Sadducees or pharisees brood of vipers, he was also speaking the truth. So yeah... The hammer of truth anf facts encompasses all... So now I advise you also talk to the critics to back off foul comments on Our young players too....All this talk... Let me tell you something, if you are afraid to speak up against the grave negativity and do it consistently or would rather play diplomatic with the truth when foul and untrue things are being said of our young Stars then you are only in indirect support of it. This is why talking to me is funny... because the people you should he talking to are the pessimists of this thread. Me, I just do what I do and several folks here appreciate it... Let me walk my path Sir Mujtahida. The hammer is mine to use and use I will. ![]()

TheGoodJoe:Development works in tandem with competition bro. This same Puel developed some players who have come to become established stars. Guadiola has a good antecedent of developing young stars. If Nacho should leave Leicester, there's no guarantee another young prodigy would not emerge to give him a run for his money. Exactly what Diabate is doing at Leicester. His ability to displace an existing player and/or maintain a certain position exemplifies his class |

Liverpool Loanee Awoniyi Bags Brace And Assist In Seven-Goal Thriller https://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/football_pics/22435Awoniyi.png Taiwo Awoniyi scored twice for his Belgian side, Royal Excel Mouscron in their 4-3 defeat to Standard Liege at Stade Maurice Dufrasne (Liège) in the Belgian First Division A on Sunday evening. The Liverpool loanee pulled the visitors level after 19 minutes, sending a right-footed shot into the bottom corner, picking off a pass from Nathan De Medina after Christian Luyindama's header had put Standard Liege in front in the 8th minute. The hosts went back in front after the intermission through Sébastien Pocognoli who struck in a left-footed effort after getting onto the end of Duje Cop's assist to make it 2-1. The 20-year old Nigerian then took center stage from there on, setting up Dorin Rotariu five minutes after the hour mark to restore parity before completing the momentary comeback with another brilliant goal of his own, racing onto an Omar Govea's through ball before blasting into the back of the net. Though two late goals from Mehdi Carcela and Duje Cop would eventually deny them any points from the encounter, Awoniyi has now scored six goals in 24 topflight appearances for Royal Excel this campaign. While he was in action for the entire duration of the game and booked in the 77th minute, Uche Agbo was not utilised off the bench for Standard Liege. **Emmanuel Chinaza Source: http://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=26561 Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 122 days to go |

LieDetector: I do not know what Diabate has done. Nacho is not an existing player because he has not been given the chance. Puel bought Diabate himself from the French league, keeping in mind that Puel is French. So there is every opportunity for preference to justify the player he bought. Not like Diabate has done something out of the ordinary. I was always against Nacho moving because I wanted him training under an offensive system. So this is not a case of supporting repeated moves. This is about Nacho training and playing under a very offensive system which I doubt Puel can offer. |

LieDetector:Puel bought diabate and you expect him not to play him? If ranieri is still at leichester you think musa will rot on the reserves? For you to say nacho is not good enough says it all,you don't know what you are saying,someone is not good enough but he was bought for 25million pounds Or you think if pellegrini is still man city coach they will buy Gabriel Jesus and sell nacho?you just can't hide what you feel for nacho,I don't need to mention it,for you saying he is not good enough says it all. |

Amkar Perm Bound Aaron Samuel Sends Message To Rohr After Scoring On Debut https://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/football_pics/34236Aaron.png Everything is pointing to the fact that Nigeria national-teamer Aaron Samuel will depart CSKA Moscow on a temporary basis before the end of this month, allnigeriasoccer.com has been informed. The striker showed off his goal scoring skills to Amkar Perm coach Gadzhi Gadzhiyev when he scored in their 3-0 win over Montenegrin club FK Budućnost Podgorica in a friendly on Sunday afternoon. To sweeten this story, Samuel only arrived in Turkey this morning and was named in Amkar Perm's starting line-up. An update on the future of the Super Eagle is expected within this week as Amkar Perm are in advanced talks with CSKA Moscow over a four-month loan deal that will run out at the end of this season. It should be noted that he is not undergoing any trial but only training with the Perm-based club before they strike terms with the Muscovites. Samuel is hoping to be recalled to the Super Eagles for their friendlies against Poland and Serbia next month and his four goals in two games tick all the right boxes. Versatile defender Brian Idowu started today's game against FK Budućnost Podgorica. **Ifeanyi Emmanuel Source: http://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=26559 Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 122 days to go |

(Photo) Is This Proof That Southampton Prodigy Has Pledged Future To Nigeria Over Ireland & England https://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/football_pics/26791Obafemi.png Southampton striker Michael Obafemi has committed his international future at senior level to Nigeria ahead of his country of birth Republic of Ireland. Although the Super Eagles are nailed-on favorites to land Obafemi, a third country England are also in the mix. He qualifies to represent the Young Lions through residency rules and the English FA has invited him for some training camps. Allnigeriasoccer.com has obtained a photograph of Michael Obafemi in a Nigeria kit during his trip to the nation's capital for a pre-World Cup friendly against the Golden Eaglets in June 2015. There are assurances from the striker's family that he wants to play for Nigeria not Ireland nor England. Obafemi became the first Nigerian player born in 2000 to feature in the Premier League after making his first-team debut against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, January 21, aged 17 years and 199 days. Including today's fixture against Liverpool, he has failed to make Southampton match day squads since his debut but everything is pointing to the fact that he has promoted to the U23s as he has not played for the U18s in their last four games. **Ifeanyi Emmanuel Source: http://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=26558 Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 122 days to go |

TheSuperNerd:Sure you free to hammer them. My own is that just as you are free, they also are free. If you Hammer them by perhaps calling them brood of vipers they will hammer you back by perhaps calling you same or even worse. It's a two way traffic. I hope I will not be construed as being irreverent: Jesus called the Pharisees vipers, they called him a winebiber, a consort of prostitutes and even an impostor. He didn't complain. So when you hammer them and they hammer back let it be taken manfully. Yes. I don't get this idea of talking to you being funny and making it seem I support the naysayers. Walk your path. Let others walk their path. That's just my own. Not once have I tried to stop you from expressing your views, not once have I said don't counter negativity. I only say respect should be between both sides. I only say it does not lie in any man's mouth to say others with a contrary opinion should not talk, should not analyse. We all have the same right to express ourselves and speak our minds! My Bro, I have not told you to back off saying positive things about the team and No, I will not tell those who express negativity to back off. The best we can do is to counter them not tell them to back off. I appreciate the positive opinions and I also appreciate the negative opinions even though I find it hurtful. Night and day, darkness and light both make life possible. Let both parties state their opinions and carry on debates in fairness, with respect - that's how I feel it should be. Space that takes in black and white is what I feel we should create here. Hammer them with your hammer of truth, they too will hammer you with theirs. Hammer ain't only in your hands - this much you should know. And remember when you call them viper, you are opening yourself up to them calling you by worse names. If you want to subtly tag me a hater or supporter of negativity just because I stand my ground and say both sides should respect each other, you welcome Bro. This is precisely the psychological game playing out on elyte89 but I understand it very well and I am not fazed.I stand for freedom and respect. I don't think I need to press the point cos forumites know how vigorously I have countered negativity here even for the same Nacho. Cos all I see playing out here is that people should not express negativity. Why not? Is negativity not part of life? I find negativity towards the SE heart-rending but I will not say that those who express such views should not do so. For why? On what ground? Similarly if those expressing negative views want to shut down those with positive views I will intervene. Both parties must breathe in and out. Hammer them. They too will hammer you. Let the Eagle hammer, let the vulture also hammer. Cheers You blow the sand to the wind and the wind blows it back at you - William Blake. |

TheGoodJoe:Game time I believe is a function of a player's training performance. If Nacho checks Puel's demands, He'll surely get lots of playing time. At some point he hardly made Leicester's bench but with some improved adjustments in deficient areas; His first touch notably, we saw him getting a run of games in the FA cup and some few minutes in the PL. He needs to work more |

LieDetector: I am not just interested in game time but playing and training under a very offensive system which will propel Nacho because of his lethal finishing ability. Something I doubt Puel can offer. |

andrew444:A player's worth is never a measure of his quality. Mahrez's tranfer fee to Leicester isn't even up to a million pounds, Bakayoko to chelsea was £40m. Judging these two players by their tranfer fees, one would think bakayoko is 40 times better than Mahrez. I'm not saying he isn't worth the fee though but take a closer look at players bought with fee close to or slightly above that £25m mark. You'll make judgement for youself. I'm not what you suppose or assume I am. A hater right? Trust me I want the best for Nacho |

LieDetector:Guilty conscience?you are what I assume you are. Are you praising diabate after 2 premier league games?to your eyes he is good enough because puel played him ahead of nacho yesterday in a clueless formation that makes them lost 5-1,don't tell me nacho is not good enough,in the eyes of pep guardiola Samuel eto was not good enough,but he remains one of the World greatest strikers in history not just Africa alone. And mind you nacho was bought for peanut from a so called Taye academy,they don't pay much to academy to buy players,the highest transfer from a Nigeria academy was kelechi nwakali followed by Isaac success which is 400 thousand euros,nacho was not even up to that amount |
| Re: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by LieDetector(m): 10:14pm On Feb 11, 2018 |
TheGoodJoe:A footballer can not play without training and no footballer will want to train without playing. Training and playing(game time) are necessary for a player's all round development. He could stick with just training with Mancity to polish his finishing ability but the effect would be counter productive. No team would go for 'inexperienced' players irrespective of the team you play for. You'd at best be loaned out to gain experience and you know how bleak the chances of a loan player making it to the first team. A dwindling career at a promising time. |

LieDetector: I did not say no game time. The point is simple. I am not talking about just game time. That does not mean no game time. However, the effect of training and playing in a more offensive system improves the player better than a negative one, even if the playing time is reduced. That is why Morata without a truck load of experience cost a fortune. Finito. |

Sure. But there are several brands of good football. But if ur talking about the most beautiful, i’d rather win with a decent brand c than being the most entertaining but without a trophy. Don’t forget the science in football. Pep is proving It again now though. Let’s see if it will last beyond this season. Mujtahida: |

LieDetector: If experience promises quality, a lot of Championship players would have been the toast for top clubs. There is a reason why a player like Iheanacho with little to no experience in senior football could set the EPL on fire and do the same in the national team. Hard work, exposure and talent. Leicester City have quality players but it is clear Puel does not have the system to make them excel. Even with playing time, he can not raise the quality of those players in a short time. Look at the art Pellegrini created with Yaya Toure. Give him Ndidi and you will see wonders in a short time. Not long playing time. It takes positional placement of players, improved roles and a more intense environment to spark the players. You can praise the regular time but the impact comes from other factors. |

LieDetector: One of my favorite philosophies of life is the idea of digging a well in a desert. No matter how hard or consistent the person works, he will not strike water. Put that person in an area with a high level of underground water, with a low percentage of the earlier water, he would strike the water. Nacho can work hard and improve at Leicester City. With time, it would be difficult to ignore. However in a more offensive system, we can have one of the most lethal weapons on the planet. |

TheGoodJoe:if Morata is the kind of player you would want Iheanacho to become, then you're obviously after him becoming just an expensive buy. Morata is a perfect example of a player that hates competition. Could not compete at Juve and Madrid. Tottenham made him an offer but he sighted Harry Kane's presence as reason for not wanting a move to Spurs. Take a look at the kind of player he has become and pray tell if Iheanacho were your brother, you'd advice him to take a cue from Morata's football adventure. |

LieDetector: Being two-faced is when you lie to yourself and you believe it When you people talk, you wonder why we attack you It's because we can see through your lies... Its because we can see through your double standards... Its because we can see beyond your posts... OK let me be reasonable for once without insults... Shey you want to talk - Iheanacho was a nobody even after he won the U-17... fact! - Iheanacho was bought as a nobody from Taye Academy as at when he was 17 from the same Taye Academy straight to Man City Reserves team,..he even had to wait until he clocked 18 before he could join Man city.. Fact! - While in the reserves, he worked hard and became the most outstanding player in that squad, he was so good that Mancini made sure he joined the senior team on their pre-season which was where he started banging in goals for Man City... Fact! - Iheanacho had the best goal to game time ratio in the whole England both under Pelligrini and Pep Guardiola. In fact he scored in the Champions League, the Epl and even had a hattrick in FA Cup... Fact! - Iheanacho is worth every penny of the 25m spent on him.... Fact! - Puel didn't buy Iheanacho and he is clueless when it comes to attacking football hence one of his strikers must sit on the bench due to his stupid defensive game play (similar to Mourinho's style at Man U)... Fact! - If Iheanacho finds himself in an attacking team whose coach is not bias against tall players, he will play week in, week out!.... Fact! These facts are what you guys aren't seeing. Diabate is getting praises now for doing nothing apart from being a Frenchman and running around tirelessly. Ask yourself this question, would you have Praised Iheanacho if he started yesterday match and ran for 70 minutes without results the same way you are praising diabate here?... ![]() Every other player can play rubbish, you don't call them out. But for every of Iheanacho's actions or inactions you berate the young man. Iheanacho starts... Problem, he doesn't start.. Bigger problem. He doesn't score... Problem, he scores... Bigger problems He comes up 15 minutes to time for a team that is already 4-1 down.... He gets the biggest bashing here.. "he never touch ball since he enter"..." he don lost for field "... Yet within the short span he was on, his touches were deft, he even gave a master pass to his colleague who couldn't convert... Only for me to come online, I open nairaland and Iheanacho is being put on the slaughter slab The yardstick you use as measurement for Iheanacho is not the same as the one used for any other player, yet you don't want us to see you as a Hater.... ![]() Newsflash guys,.. Diabate is just going to be a flash in the pan... O! I have watched the Epl long enough to know how it pans out But Iheanacho,.. That boy is destined for greatness... I see it all around him... With or without your baised, vilified, negative supports,.. He will shine Mark my words, it might not be today but IHEANACHO WILL SHINE Form is temporarily.. But class is permanent Iheanacho is Class! |
