Then you missed. Big time. In the AFCON with Berti Vogtz, Aiyegbeni missed and missed until Obafemi begged Kanu to talk to Vogtz to replace Aiyegbeni with him.

The guy kept on missing but kept his place because of his experience as one of he top EPL strikers.

TheGoodJoe:

Your point three highlights precisely my point. I know that most times, bias choices happens because of the weak favor of experience players. That is why Yakubu Aiyegbeni, [b]missed goals upon goals [/b]and kept his place. He missed until the woeful unforgettable World Cup miss before the scales fell off people's eyes that he was passed it.

Select who is better than that experience thing.

Respect for your wonderful thought,hating is a disease and if someone cannot control himself is a big issue.

How on earth w somebody come to this thread and indirectly saying Enyeama should be back coz of Mikel captain band then a wonderful Ikeme should be bench for no reason than hatred for God sake.

Honestly i have players that i don't like but that should not give me reason to base my analysis on hatred towards them

Yeah, age caught up with Nwosu after Maroc '88. One questions whether he was really 17 @ Nigeria '80.

Adepoju was more of an AMF, though he could play also as a CMF.
Just like today severally AMFs then could be drafted as CMFs.
But the main CMF under Westerhof before JJ Okocha was Thompson Oliha.

Did Adepoju ever play as a DMF?

It's Saturday.

I remember listening to BBC Sports World in the early 1990s to hear Alan Green's commentaries on the English League and also listen to Mike Costello'[/b]s commentaries on the Golden League or IAAF Grand Prix. You'd hear Costello's commentaries from Rome (the famous Golden Gala), Zurich, Paris, Crystal Palace, etc and there was always a prominent nigerian athlete in the race. It was four hours of non-stop sports.

Goodness me, Mike Costello! Don't think any radio commentator will ever beat him

I remember when [b]Complete Sports started in 1995. They had a two page spread on Mondays that contained results of most of the football league matches in Europe, South America and Africa. It also contained results of the latest athletics meetings that took place that weekend, particularly results of races that involved Nigerians.

Remember complete sports too. Think they started in 1994. They used to report athletics too. I remember the week before USA 94 started, despite the football frenzy, they still had a middle page piece on the Mobil Athletics championships that was coming up even though this was just a commonwealth year. That was how big T&F was

I remember Segun Odegbami's show on NTA Channel 10 in the early '90s, which featured clips of the previous weekend's races.

Soul winning alone will not take you to heaven; you win a soul by living the God life and your personal interest in bringing somebody to the knowledge of Christ. You have to be in a good frame of mind first, not under fear or compulsion that if you do not win souls you will go to hell. There should be no ulterior motives like getting the soul’s money eventually, you want a position or seeking to be rewarded with treats or awards. There are people who reach out to others daily not for any earthly reward or to direct the souls to their own churches, for benefits or for any selfish reason. These people recommend and make available other authors, ministers and local assemblies for the interest of the soul alone

Ibrahimovic has officially retired from International football. We will, thankfully, not be seeing him at the Olympics.

Now, for Neymar, Okazaki and Messi to retire

TheGoodJoe:

Are you saying if we drop a player from the National team as Coach Manu Garba dropped Simon Moses, we are rejecting him.

Alaba was not rejected. He was always welcomed but that level were carrying home based players.

When Coach Keshi chose to drop some foreign based players for he AFCON we won to carry home based players, was he rejecting our Foreign based players?

From Nigerian history, these myopic attempts to politicise major humanitarian issues always ends in disaster.

He would have chickened out. He would have been sore afraid,given up the struggle and left South Africa as a country still under apartheid. He wouldn't mind the *slave toga*. Like Mandela, Like Kanu... Real men!!!!

Fayose is a comedian. Buhari went to beg for loan while Fayose went to solicit for technological transfer. Which is better? Loan that we cannot pay back in the 5 years or technology that will benefit our future generations that we will not have to import certain goods and services.

5 Reasons Why Super Eagles Need Foreign Coach


Siasia opted to start his inexperienced Olympic players Azubuike Okechukwu and Stanley Amuzie which cost the team in Alexandra.

shockwave91:
when i prayed for them, they lost. So now i will curse dem. But before i do dat, i guess this is wat happens wen startimes has broadcast rights to ur matches and nike sponsors ur kits. I'll say it again, we've never won sh*t with nike and we never will. Even if their jersey's r fine. Sorry, but i don't think this is nigeria's tournament. As also the women's world cup and u-17



quote me and die

abatically: You are the only sensible person around here. Enyeama chose a side while the wall blocked the other side. Enyeama probably thought messi would change the position of the free kick and choose to play it to the goalkeeper's side instead of over the wall as the distance was far (Ronaldo does that a lot). Unfortunately messi chose to play it over the wall... it was a perfectly taken free kick and was always going away from the goalkeeper. No matter how hard Enyeama tries, he wouldn't get to that ball. The Only way he would have saved the ball was for him to make the movement before messi took the kick. But then if he had done that and it happened that messi chose the other direction, then we would blame him for not defending his own side.

This Op talking about match fixing... so u are telling me every goalkeeper Messi or other players have scored free kicks against were also involved in match fixing?

You would recall how Gen. Abacha arrested him with others, sentenced him to death for alleged involvement in a phantom coup

CFCfan: Yep, her coach (Smith) has to work on that. Imagine if she had a much faster start, she may be running close to 10.7 secs or faster! She could be the female Usain Bolt.
