[quote author=optimus-prime1]I have seen Osaze perform in the EPL currently, I have seen him on other previous appearance's for Nigeria, his 9goals for the position(Musa's postion) he played was'nt bad at all, he's got the experience and got the sting...
Be very sincere, are you tryn to say Musa, Babatunde, Ideye, Akpala, or Ujah are better than Osaze, like seriously??[/quote]Musa is better than him, he already has 5 goals in that position, Ideye did better than Osaze did in France, Musa is doing better than Osaze did when he was in Russia, at least he won the double. Osaze has never won anything in any of the clubs he played for, nothing!!

[quote author=Nuzo']Thanks for the question. I like it.

1. Unlike Nigeria, the Chinese are more interested in table tennis, badminton, diving and gymnastics while the Indians are interested in Cricket. And they are doing great in these areas.

2. The chinese would rather watch or play basketball than soccer. An average chinese (young, old, male or female) knows more about NBA more than an average American. Just the same way Jarus knows about EPL more than Britons.

3. Recently, CNN showed a short documentary asking same questions about the chinese not being able to come up with a standard football team.

The Chinese have not remembered soccer. When they do...no be pesin go tell you.

Cheers![/quote]Just because China is not doing well in football doesn't mean that they aren't interested in football, the have the world's largest market for football merchandise and they've a great league that imports players from abroad and pau them heavily. They are very much intersted in football, they are just not good enoug in it. My point is, population has nothing to do with football. what about Indonesia?

[quote author=Adviser.General]Nice rating Jarus. In my own opinion, Keshi unknowingly sold out the game by introducing Babatunde in replacement of Oduamadi who invited the trouble for himself. Though we controlled the game but the subs were nothing to write home about. Immediately Oduamadi left that pitch, the attacking spirit died.. I tot I saw Martins on the bench, his introduction would have been a bit better.[/quote]You are finished!

[quote author=optimus-prime1]Dude I hope you know Osaze was not dropped from the team because he was not delivering quality football, he was dropped because of interpersonal issues esp in the dresser room and his latest feud with Keshi...
He is still one of Nigeria's most lethal attackers with a sharp eye for scoring, so dont diss him like that ok?
he is miles better than Akpala, Ujah, Musa, Ideye and Babatunde.
If he can be forgiven by Keshi and he promises to change and be of good conduct- "I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH HIM ON THE TEAM"
just to let you know[/quote]Go and watch the match againsr Guinea in Abuja where we failed to qualify for AFCON 2012 and come back to tell me about Osaze again. People have short memories. It's not a coincidence that he has just 9 goals for Nigeria. Even Mikel has 4 despite playing less than him.

Off topic but have you guys noticed the recent trend of FIFA deducting points from African teams in the world cup qualifiers for fielding suspended players? I just hope our Nff does not fall ino this trap, Sudan, Togo, Ethiopia and Eritrea have all fallen. This might result in the best teams not qualifying.
Fifa should try to remind the FA of a suspension or prevent the player from entering the pitch,instead of taking 3 points out. It’s rubbish. Sometimes it can be difficult to remember a player got 2 yellow cards in 2 different matches. FIFA should prevent this from happening instead of deducting 3 points after it has already
happened.

[quote author=Nuzo']Its really surprising that in a country of over 90 million men, we cannot comfortably source for at least 3 strikers that can stand world soccer powers.

It hurts. [/quote]How many does India and China have with almost 1 billion men.

Jarus: bro, na wa o.

The thing tire me, people just fling names of players without knowing if they are still alive sef. Hahaha

9jafreak: Personally, I'm impressed. The last time we had a team with this amount of football sense was perhaps 98.
Do you all remember how many borefest of Super Chicken footies we endured for years and years before this team?

That's why we should do eveything to avoid bringing back those players who gave us the name super chickens. Instead we should drop the remaining one of them, Enyeama!!

I wonder what he means by full strength though, any team Spain fields will be full strength. We need to be at our best.

Odemwingie says he is expecting Nigeria to defeat Spain and believes that Uruguay will not score too much agains Tahiti. In a tweet a few minutes ago he wrote ''Spain first in the group, so will not play with full strength. Could be our chance (1998). If Tahiti defend well, we'll get a chance to advance''.

Brimmie: [size=20]We need a professional striker! Keshi should bring back Osaze![/size]

Osaze has 9 goals for Nigeria in 10 years, Mikel has 4 in 6 years. Just saying.

Ejide should start the next match, Enyeama has turned into a one chance one goal keeper.

The kind of things I see on this site make me want to cry, we are talking about goal scoring problems and someone is mentioning Ameobi, I mean Ameobi?? Do you know his goal scoring record? Another one mentioned Anichebe? Someone who has never scored more than six(6) goals in a season?? Ideye as bad as he is; is a better goal scorer than those two put together. People should try and make sense.

Diasporan: Another means for an excuse when they put up a dismal performance.Its been part of the Super Eagles style right from time immemorial.Either jet lag,bad pitch or below standard hotel.In this case Brazil has good pitch and world class 5 star hotels.My bet is that they will hinge their below average performance on the latter.

Latter of former?

seunblack: They are jst going to waste their time in brazil,even haiti will beat dem,I can put my money on it.smh

Go ahead and bet your money, because Haiti is not even in the tournament. Fool

Sorry guys!! I just noticed that Nairaland's word censor modified the link. Please change 'self-service to masturb....tion to get the correct link. Thanks.

[quote author=Godman_n]Honestly if you ask me what I wish her, I wish that the lies she cooks up in Aso Rock be exposed. I pray that a strong wind sweep away her and her likes (her masters and her comrades in arm) out of our seat of power.

I wish that we Nigerians learn quickly how to disgrace these people that has refused to turn around our economy; that have refused to run an economy that can guarantee reasonable work for every Nigerians.

I don't wish her well because I am convinced that she has knowingly or unwillingly helped in our underdevelopment.[/quote]I like people who speak their mind no matter what others are saying.

akpomeme: You are due for yaba left. This disrespectful generation full of scorn and hatred for their parents generation.

With very good reasons.

Happy birthday you sadist

olawalemanog: For God's sake what type of morons are our universities turning out? We turn out grsduates that cannot connect history. For God's sake who first killed the BH leader in cold blood? All you fools kept quiet and never bothered to do as little as discuss it simply because you think it is the problem of the North.

How nice of you to forget the fact that BH leader was killed after his group went on a killing spree in Bauchi, they killed 100s of people in cold blood for no reason whatsoever. That was how it started, the govt didn't just wake up one morning and decided to kill him, but yhe likes of you will conveniently ignore that. The number of typo errors in your post shows how angry you were while typing that and it says a lot about you. You are obviously a BH sympathizer. Give them amnesty for what? What exactly are they fighting for? Offering them amnesty was a big mistake by the govt and BH were foolish enough to reject it. See a stupîd northerner talking about Nigeria dividing, who will lose? What does the country gain from you guys? Nonsense.
