Nothing new.

You haven't said anything outstanding..

99.9999 percent of those supporting Argentina are doing so because of Messi.

Remove Messi there and put him in Zimbabwe, we will support Zimbabwe..

Back to the issue, what dirty tactics of Argentina are you talking about?
If I have to highlight the various dirty antics of Argentina throughout this tournament (which are already known and talked about), then there's absolutely no point wasting my time, seeing that your head is stuck in sand already.

Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia in Qatar 2022.
Saudi Arabia has a moderately better profile than Cabo Verde in football though, not even the same level of upset.
SportsRe: Spain Are FIFA World Cup 2026 Champions! by SymphonyRad: 11:41pm On Jul 19
Spain went from drawing against Cabo Verde to winning the world cup, crazy stuff.

Abeg this Rodri of a guy na agba baller. I watched him against France and i realised why he won the ballon dor. No misplaced passes. Tonight na the same thing. I salute him
I never understood why Rodri was always disrespected, easily one of the best players of this generation.

Only unlikeable to Ronaldo fans.
Stop deceiving yourself.
I'm a Messi fan but I never supported Argentina for their dirty and distasteful antics, two things can be true at the same time.
SportsRe: Spain Are FIFA World Cup 2026 Champions! by SymphonyRad: 11:24pm On Jul 19
Never a more deserving team to be crowned champions than Spain, Argentina always rubbed off many of us the wrong way even though Messi is loved globally...but the FIFA conspiracies of trying to help Argentina win the tournament made Argentina so unlikeable/controversial..and Argentina didn't make their case any better with the way they leaned into that villain agenda and embracing it so arrogantly.

This was a great tournament and be remembered for so many cinematic games, I'm glad the absence of Nigeria didn't stop me from having the best summer of the year.

Nigerian blogs have no credibility.

Either this was mischievously twisted or outright falsehood.
I hope for Iwobi's sake and credibility that he was either grossly quoted out of context or this was just another typical case of Naija bad journalism...otherwise I'd be very worried about such statements and mentality if I were the national team manager...

When we talk ,we know what we are saying …look at the mentality of the players u want to bank on , to qualify us to the World Cup

Even if one critically look at this team,you will
Know some of these players are not even bothered or will I say destined to go to the World Cup
You've said it all, those guys don't care...the likes of Osimhen, Iwobi etc were all living their best summer lives (which is fine cause life continues with or without football) while their counterparts were busy creating their legacies at the world cup. This aloof statement by Iwobi should makesl every rational minded Nigerian fan to stop kissing the arse of these players and start asking those tough questions about the weak mentality of these players who wear the prestigious jersey...I've always maintained this present generation of players have to be phased out now and let's just restart with the younger & upcoming players waiting on the fringes to prove a point or more.

Eintracht Frankfurt are interested in Raphael Onyedika, deals are ongoing for his signing.

I don't like Argentina but I detest English fans even more, so this was a choice of settling for the better evil here which was Argentina.

So England actually have a better world cup head to head record.
England may look like the better team on paper, but I will trust Argentina to knock them out.
This is the end of the road for Argentina, England are primed for a world cup final, it's just their destiny right now

There must be at least one red card in this Arg vs Eng game.

Blueelf:
Sorry, is Wesley ugochukwu still eligible for us?

And if so, what are the chances he wants to represent us?
He moved to galatasaray where he will get to meet Osimhen and recognize his big influence there...so I would say the chances are higher he decides for Nigeria before the next AFCON.

Most current Eagles won’t play 2030 World Cup – Simon

"Sorry to say, about 90 or 95 per cent of the players in the current team, they’re watching. I don’t think they will play the next World Cup because the young players are coming up. Eric Chelle is building a new team, a strong team for the nation, which is really good for everyone.

“So possibly, in 2030, most of us will be supporters, supporting the mission.”

Despite accepting that he may never realise his World Cup dream as a player, Simon remains optimistic that the next generation will carry Nigeria’s hopes.
Simon 31, captain Wilfred Ndidi (29), Alex Iwobi (30) and Victor Osimhen (27), will also be in their 30s by 2030.


https://punchng.com/most-current-eagles-wont-play-2030-world-cup-simon/
From this current bunch I believe Osimhen,Lookman and Iwobi will be around for 2030 to lead the next generation and provide leadership, the rest should justifiably be phased out by then.

Na dem sabi. My own is they should keep their hands off Eric Chelle since every team in Africa suddenly wants him.

Mtchewww, what am I even saying? If NFF go ahead and shit the bed by failing to renew his contract, what will my wailings amount to?

Abeg.
What if NFF shit the bed and get Pape Thiaw grin

I have not concluded anything, but you+ would conclude that Chukwueze and Akor will no longer be starting for us because of Zodak and Femi
Chukwueze isn't a starter right now until he sorts out his form and inconsistency, Akor is definitely likely a starter under Chelle...but that RW is still up for grabs so any player who impresses can take that spot.

There is difference between "to flop" and "to disappoint"
I'm not writing them off,and also won't be depending on them.

Dribbling and beating the likes of Zimbabwe, Benin and Malawi means nothing to me,if when I need you to dominate and defeat the likes of Senegal and Morocco, and you would be outplayed and be defeated.
Femi and Zadok haven't even gotten a chance to play any significant games for Nigeria yet and you've already concluded they are lightweight? I don't quite follow your logic honestly.

Joebie:
Morocco got to the SF in my books considering it is an expanded world cup and they met the strongest title contender. So no dey appease urself.Morrocco is MILES ahead of Naija. You can settle for AFCON owambe as usual
Story for the gods, nobody gives a fucck about those expanded world cup technicalities my guy. What football facts will have on record is that Morocco got to the QF (fair play to them) but they got slapped around by France and got dumped out with no shots on target till minute 86. Senegal gave France a far better game, even teams like Cape Verde and Ivory Coast would have given France a better fight. You can suck off Morocco for all you want but with all their recent successes, they will still need some more decades to catch up to Nigeria's continental and global impact in football despite our administrative woes that have stunted our football lately.

So yeah, I daresay there's no world where Morocco is MILES ahead of Naija, granted they have a more successful world cup record than us lately no doubt, but that is only where they have surpassed us in football...making world cup semi-finals and Quarter-finals are mad impressive for an African side, but at the end what separates you from the big boys are those trophies in your national cabinet and not your world cup moral victory stories.
SportsRe: "The Super Eagles Thread: The Road To AFCON 2027, 2028 And 2030 World Cup by SymphonyRad: 2:24am On Jul 10
World cup is over for every African team so everybody don humble, let them all come back and let's have fun as we prepare for the next AFCON. At least all the roasting of Nigeria has ended about us not qualifying blah blah blah...now we can all begin our different realities on the same level as we start on a clean and new slate under Eric Chelle. After all has been said and done, Nigeria is still 28 ranked in the world and now 4th in Africa despite the world cup absence, so we still get levels at least.

An African team can be leading 3-0 in the 89th minute at a major tournament and still find a way to not only bottle it but even lose...this one is no longer a mentality thing, I think we're actually cursed.

Seems only Morocco have the elite mentality all of African teams lack, crazy stuff.

England really played like lions, winning at the Azteca was always going to be a very tall order especially when Mexico has never lost there since 2013? My boy Bellingham balled his socks off, a proper Real Madrid performance right there 👏🏿.
