Personal interest I believe

komekn:
It defies all forms of reasoning to try and understand how they got into the SE.

But Obagoal and Aluko were left out.

Thanks

suco01:
late last year. u need to watch it. go to and search for bleeding steel under video.

Yea, he's got the "I'm looking or not looking at you" kinda eyesight.

CaptainStephen:
I think he has an eye deficiency because I have seen him wearing what looks like medicated glasses on more than once.

Talking about your first comment "Akpeyi making blunders at club...."

tbaba1234:
I only described the second goal as a blunder... I will rephrase it.. "a bad error." . cc: icon4s

Same way Messi scored his free kick against Etebor's Las palmas few days ago. He put it where the keeper was initially standing.

Icon4s:
I am not holding brief for Akpeyi but I had to assess that goal with an open mind. You tbaba called it a " blunder" .You exaggerated it, which is why really I am taking my time to discuss it.

I would have just watched and moved on.Unfair criticism.

You cannot say Akpeyi should not be conceding from that distance when goalkeepers even concede from goals played from the centre circle.

He just initially misjudged the intended direction of the ball. He expected the player to aim at the space he left behind the defence wall but the player unconventionally played it towards the position where Akpeyi initially stood.

It is almost the same thing Enyeama did against Messi. Anticipating in the wrong direction.

Sure, very average. We don't have any GK presently that is above average.

jihday:
Akpeyi is not just good enough, this one isn't about shaky shaky, he's at best a very average goalkeeper

Well the fan's statement (tweet) said these 2 goals, didn't cite other goals so lets not assume.

And it was also bad judgment for Enyeama to stand too far left in a FK situation. As a GK, you don't stay too far wide just incase there is a deflection or a change of mind from the kicker.

tbaba1234:
The distance was too far for Akpeyi to concede from that. He should not be conceding from that distance.

For Messi's goal, Enyeama stood far away from the left side, probably expecting Messi to change direction. Even if Enyeama was well positioned, he could have still missed the ball.

I think, the Chippa fan is also reacting to past Akpeyi's error . I understand, he made an error in his previous match.

I wouldn't call this "blunders" as you first put it. The first goal not his fault, normal goal, only exceptional GKs get to save that and we don't have them in abundance in the world.

The second goal was partly his fault, he guessed wrong by first moving to the left before seeing the ball flying towards the right hand side.. Bad judgment from him.

tbaba1234:
Akpeyi blunder for the second goal...

The evil spirits have targeted him at his club side after their success in the GWG.

Akpeyi, Akpeyi, Akpeyi, how many times did I call you? Deliverance is calling you o.

tbaba1234:
Akpeyi making blunders at club level..

On a serious note, no keeper is immune to blunders not even Buffon.

You dey mind this yeye people? If not that I read both articles, would have been jumping up and down for nothing.

tbaba1234:
This is a rubbish article..

Ikeme will be doing the Kickoff in the friendly against England. It does not mean, he is back in the team.

You can send one to someone for free to "try" it out for you to be sure.

There is no oil or drug that can make your winky big on earth!

Mind you I didn't say herbs.

ennyj01:
you have to give benefit of doubt and also there are good testimony online concerning the product

When did bleeding steel come out? Need to watch that asap.

suco01:
YES "The Foreigner" and "Bleeding steel"

Turkey

kinkybunny:
fowl

Imagine having another similar ability player like Onazi then, it would have made perfect sense, a like for like replacement would have actually kept us in that France tie.

Mujtahida:
Highly depleted bench. If we had gone with a strong bench who knows perhaps we would have gone far because tactically Keshi knew his onions but personnel wise he didn't get it right. Even with that team Argentina scraped a victory against us.

then sha we really didn't have as much quality players as we do now but Keshi drove past the junction in taking the likes of Uchebo and Ruben Gabriel to the WC.

He even gambled with Oshaniwa and Babatunde but at least those ones put up some acceptable level of performance.

The person i quoted

Samsimple:
who said he is dead

Yet Chinese and most Asians have the smallest winky in the world. you want to buy drugs for big winky and you're going to China?

ennyj01:
try "mk pure enlargement oil". it is a chinese oil for penis enlargement which can add up to 3.5 inches to your original length. you can google it and also check it up on jumia

Mujtahida:
.

Look at our bench and rejoice not like in 2014 where you'd look at the bench and see Rastaman Uchebo and Ruben Gabriel

These 2 men don suffer for your hand

Its not about returning it back to natural grass, does the stadium have what it takes? does it have every sporting amenities available to Uyo and other standard stadiums out there? what is the capacity?

TheSuperNerd:
Ogbemudia Stadium to Host Super Eagles again
By Duro Ikhazuagbe

https://i2.wp.com/s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/leadersandco/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/02124207/Super-Eagles-.jpg


The main-bowl of the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City is to be overhauled and returned to natural grass surface from its current artificial astro-turf state. When completed, the Nigerian senior national team will return to Benin City to play home games there.

Ogbe Stadium as the facility was previously known until it was named after the two-time governor of old Bendel State, Dr Samuel Osaigbovo Ogbemudia who built it in 1973, is to be re-grassed as part of the sports reforms embarked upon by the Godwin Obaseki administration in the state.

Speaking during the rebranding of Bendel Insurance FC in Benin city during the week, Deputy Governor of Edo State, Rt Hon. Philip Shaibu, explained that they have since discovered that the artificial turf was not really desirable for good football in this part of the world due to the climate here.

“When next people who are here (at the rebranding ceremony) come to watch a game at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, you will see a brand new stadium that is comparable to international standards,” observed the deputy governor who regularly trains with Bendel Insurance at the facility.

He admitted that given that when the pitch returns to natural grass, “fans are going to notice a difference in the quality of play of the Benin Arsenal.”

President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick, who was a guest at the rebranding ceremony was excited with the move by the Edo State government to return the famous ground to same natural grass as the Uyo stadium where Eagles currently play their home matches.

He pledged a return of the senior national team to the facility if the handlers of the Super Eagles are satisfied with the job done there.

“His Excellency, Governor Godwin Obaseki, contributed hugely, while I was running for the Confederation of African Football positions, he has also been in the forefront of hosting all our women national teams in this our great city and what can we reward him with than to bring back the Super Eagles to their original home in Benin City,” observed the NFF chief.

He recalled that at a point in the history of the Super Eagles, eight regular players of the senior national team were from the old Bendel State, consisting of Edo and Delta.

Pinnick thanked the governor and his deputy for bringing back the nostalgia of the days when the Ogbemudia Stadium was filled to capacity before 12 noon, any time Bendel Insurance had home matches. “I believe such era will return with the move to rebrand the team that has started now.”

The NFF president agreed that the future of club football in the country was to be private sector driven as envisioned by Gov Obaseki.

Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 103 days 23 hours 16mins to go

internationalman:
I heard he's dead.

Na you kill am? person wey just do "the foreigner" late last year?

Well the "if" is what it is, until then.

MetalJigsaw:
He would still lose his first team place all the same if he gets displaced by Tyronne.

Why shouldn't i? are we comparing based on some things and not based on all grounds?

franchasng:
you cant compare Nigerians to Venezuela when it comes to Yahoo, freelancers, bloggers and entertainment, Nigeria beat them hands down in these areas, I dont know about other areas

You got it. when stopped, obey them, do not argue and don't try to be smart. only answer what they ask you!

horlus:
interesting read i particularly liked your writing style,quite creative. i tell you the reason it went well was because somehow you were calm and really polite and you let them through your phone. so i guess that was it.

Well i think like someone said, they look at how you dress, your face and what you have in your hands/pocket.

Never been stopped before. the last time i had any issue with police (stopping) or whoever was prolly 11 years ago and the police man that stopped me became my enemy lol. i was prolly laughing at him while he was fooling around asking silly questions/checking stuffs he's got no idea of.

If you're clean and polite/confident when talking to them, they won't have any option but to let you be (thats if they get to stop you in the first place.)

Is he dead or missing?

internationalman:
I missed Jackie Chan.

All we get these days are the Americans that apply graphics card made almost every scene digital.

Only staying that he's an utility player, coaches are always in love with versatile players.

MetalJigsaw:
And you think the coach will draft him there when we have more than enough personnel there already?

It's weird na except you didn't watch his last 2 games in the GWG jersey.

forgiveness:
My question too much?

Well just incase..

MetalJigsaw:
Its going to be not more than 5, bro.

Flat in the GWG colors and I see nothing new in him that those in the team don't posses.

In fact he has gotten 2 yellow cards or thereabouts in his few appearances for the SE.

MetalJigsaw:
He has little or nothing to offer to the team.

forgiveness:
..


However, many match Agu don play for Eagles wey em no impress?

Are you serious with this question?

We should be able to accommodate 6 midfielders in the 23 man squad na.

Kog45:
Yes real bomb cos Rohr would not have excuse for not given us the best in midfield.

How i wish the squad can accommodate Mikel,Ndidi,Onazi,Ogu,Etebo and Joel

Yes o, competition all to the glory and progress of the team!

Kog45:
Not really dropping but seeing a very competitive scenario in camp which is good for the team

I doubt Shehu getting dropped except if he loses form or injury before June.

Kog45:
Yes but check out Nigeria midfield, Mikel,Ndidi, Onazi,Ogu,Etebo,Agu and now Joel Obi.

Better for Shehu to concentrate on RB and my fear again is Rohr testing Brian and Aina at RB cos those guys too are solid RB.
