Subzero047:
Guardiola has signed a new contract at Man city

If not...

TheGoodJoe:


Best news of the day.

I expected Guardiola to stay after he signed Ferran Torres. That was one of the reason Torres chose Manchester City, he wants to work with Guardiola.

Subzero047:


I was sad that Nigeria couldn't employ him and you are talking another thing

TheGoodJoe:


We have Amunike. He played on the same team with Guardiola, worked with some of the coaches that coached Guardiola. Went to the same coaching school.

Let us cherish ours and help ours grow.

That's Mourinho there too.

This Squad was full of Potentials, talented and skillful Players. To some extent, best assembled Team after 1996 Squad

What went wrong?!

It's like u are the one who wants to talk. If u defend a white man for the same thing u crucify a black man for is that not portraying white people as saints? Don't get mad at me cuz I say it as it is cuz I really don't care either way.

And, like it has always been, we need to nominate Monikers who will come up with the list of players in the various categories. Then, the entire house will do the voting.

NOTE: Being the Coordinator I am already part of the committee. No need to nominate Icon4s, so we need 6 more people who will join me.


All you need do is mention the Moniker you want to see in the awards Committee and CC: Icon4s and Bascovanveli. The Top 6 nominated monikers will join me in the Committee.

Sydney 2000 Olympics squad remains my best. When you consider that we dropped the likes of Abubaka Musa (Played a lot like the young Mikel), Emmah Isah, Joseph Yobo, Emmanuel Aniele, Emmanuel Ebiede, Sunday Ibeji to mention few.

The Squad.

1 GK Greg Etafia
2 DF Gbenga Okunowo
3 DF Celestine Babayaro
4 FW Johnson Sunday
5 DF Iyenemi Furo
6 DF Christopher Kanu
7 FW Victor Agali
8 FW Bright Igbinadolor
9 FW Yakubu Aiyegbeni
10 MF Azubike Oliseh
11 MF Garba Lawal*
12 MF Henry Onwuzuruike
13 FW Pius Ikedia
14 MF Blessing Kaku
15 DF Godwin Okpara*
16 DF Isaac Okoronkwo
17 FW Julius Aghahowa
18 GK Sam Okoye

TheGoodJoe:


Sad Nigeria is where we are. Our football story summarizes Nigeria. A country filled with great potential but succumbed to nothing due to people putting their personal greed ahead of National success that will impact the whole country positively.

Let us not talk of the Coja team, coached by Musa Abdullahi. I actually missed those games but followed them on news. Those guys played some breathtaking, high tempo attacking football.

Subzero047:


Hmm

Icon4s:


How can you say this was your best Olympic squad? When they were not even as good as the 1988 and 2008 squads.

You're stupid bro, Was it not the Jail break in Edo state we discussed here? show me where I defended the supposed killings or leave my mention

If saying that the protesters should go home so that law enforcement can restore order is what you call supporting the killing of innocent Nigerians then you are daft. You guys were chanting freedom when criminals were escaping and now Edo state is in disarray, I hope those criminals exercise their freedom on you guys that supported their jail break

humility33:


Oga you don't have shame at all....

Even when it was glaring that your talk was way off you still resort to even call me stupid

I won't stoop so low to insult you would have prefer we meet in person then will watch you say those words to me and then watch my reaction
Anyone can insult online

TheGoodJoe:


Superb post but very heart breaking when you see how intelligent Mikel was. It was like he had eyes at the back of his head and knew what was happening at every inch of the field.

Worst part was that Mourinho did not need Mikel. Alex Ferguson had just transformed one of the bright young talents in football, CR7 into a World Class talent and his touch on Mikel would have been glamourous.

Mourinho did not want Ferguson getting another weapon of Football destruction and fought to scatter that Union.

The fact Ferguson flew to Norway repeatedly showed how much he envisioned a superstar in Mikel.

This was a painful trip down memory lane.

Classic video.


While watching this match, I exclaimed, "Maradona, have you seen how to play the 10 role."

Maradona was in the stadium that day to handover the touch to Messi but Mikel shone like a million stars that night.

elyte89:



Abi o,we can even frustrate d man by employing an indigenous coach over him,na sharply e go resign

M7even:



Don't be one sided in your opinion watch messi's clip from that game as well.

Icon4s:


Compare with this team:

1988 Olympics Nigeria squad list:


Goal Keepers:
David Ngodigha
Christian Obi

Defenders:
Jude Agada
Augustine Eguavoen
Chidi Nwanu
Sylvanus Okpala
Bright (10-10) Omokaro

Midfielders:
Adeola Adeshina
Emeka Ezugo
Osaro Obobaifo
Joseph Odegbami
Ndubuisi Okosieme
Samuel Okwaraji

Forwards:
Dominic Iorfa
Henry Nwosu
Mike Obiku
Samson Siasia
Rashida Yekini

I just compared them with the '88 squad not to even mention the 1996 and 2008 squads that went as far as the finals.

Who the heck is defending the white man for crying out loud? You came here to cry that they didn't allow you criticize Rohr for the same thing they criticized keshi for, and I asked you who did.The same pple you castigate for not criticizing Rohr for playing a clubless Musa are the ones that actually have been criticizing him for handling him a callup in the first place.Abi weren't you referring to guys on this criticize the white man with your full chest and stop saying someone didn't allow you do it just because you feel like talking.

Abi what's the meaning of what you wrote below.




" but those same people say we shouldn't criticize white angels from Europe"



Person they follow u talk something y dey do assif them dey follow u fight.Every single soul on this thread have expressed their displeasure and castigated Rohr for handling Musa a callup, but you are saying this same pple are preventing you from criticizing Rohr for playing Musa who is clubless.

If you like keep dodging.
