Pidginwhisper: See what Nigerian football has been reduced to. We should just focus on playing the Minors. The fear factor is gone, the prestige is gone, all thanks to the mediocre in the name of players we’ve been. parading. Zero zeal, zero hunger, the bastards just want to showboat and sell their market on the pitch, they don’t care about the Nations pride. EndSars like revolution should take place to flush out the bastards in the NFF headquarters. We need our football back!!
What a depressing excerpt. 2022 has been such a poor year for the Eagles. We need to flush everything out and start with a blank skate in 2023.
Mujtahida: Qatar 2022: Just watching Matt Walsh talking about the US men's team changing the insignia of the US national flag emblazoned on their jersey into the rainbow colors of the gay pride even when Qatar has said that they are opposed to making the WC a platform for the promotion of gay ideology.
The forceful spread of gay ideology into football will possibly be the final nail in the coffin of my depleting interest in football. A man who wants to mate with another man should do so in the privacy of his room. Why bring it into sports?
Agreed. Sports is supposed to be a time of laying back and taking your mind off of pressing matters. It is being way too politicized now.
Well, that ends arguably one of our worst years of football.
-Both Super Eagles B and the main team chopping L's left and right - The gradual decline of our Women's dominance on the African continent - Failure to secure WC ticket
We need an overhaul in our football infrastructure. Heck, we don't even have a national academy nor training centre!
Blueelf: I don't understand the reason komekn is getting such insults. What he said while not completely right shouldn't warrant such derogatory terms from people that are probably not better a human being than he.
Just because you disagree with someone's opinion doesn't mean he is petty or a pig, One of the insulters is such that if he was the one on the receiving end, he will disappear from this thread for weeks to go and sulk somewhere
I don't agree with komekn 70% of the time but the guy is brilliant. komekn, thesupernerd, and thegoodjoe with sir bascovanveli and andrewbaba44 are the most insightful guys we have here. Their takes this thread going.
And i am also surprised because the mods saw this and chose to play favoritism. Some of you prolly lack home training.
I know some gutter mouths would come with insults. Because they don't know how to disagree with hurling vitriols.
Make una continue
Oga komekn, carry on. I dey gbadun your takes and knowledge of the English game. Although I hardly agree with you but I can't argue the fact that you have deep knowledge of english football/footballers
I agree. It was an innocuous statement. Piling on him has just become a trend so everyone is just taking a shot at him whenever the opportunity presents itself
mostob: Forget the goal today, Osimehn was poor... A striker that can not collect ball from the keeper, dribble the entire Midfield and score is an average striker.
daveP: Our hands are so loaded with talents right now that we should be favourites for this Afcon trophy. Almost all positions in attack got double and equally lethal reps.
This was echoed for the last two iterations. Let's just wait until the actual tournament to make conclusions
BannedLarge: They have actually been a better team (Goal scoring wise) without him. Although, their 2 bench strikers don’t have his work ethic, passion or drive, they’re equally as capable of scoring. He cannot be benched or dropped because it will tremendously reduce his valuation in the buyers eyes
BannedLarge: Osimehn will most likely be sold after this season considering the form of Simeone and rasberry. The only reason that they can’t even bench him is because it can possibly affect his value. My hope is that, osimehn signs for one of the best club in the World. Chelsea go fit am
Forget about value, they can't bench him because Osimhen is a game changer. Can Raspa, Kvara or Simeone lead the team to level from being 2-0 down?
