KINGinVAHALA:
With this post of yours, it’s clear that you supported Obi.
So let me ask you since you and your likes are always fond of mentioning Obi and Nigeria youths in one sentence.
Is Obi a youth? Was Obi the youngest amongst the presidential candidates?
Mention one Nigerian that Obi has ever mentored in any aspect of life?
In terms of capabilities since all the major candidates had held public offices, was Obi the best?
Since you wants this thread to be turned into a politics thread, let’s go

Bros from your post it's also clear that you supported agbado. Obi might not be a youth but hes the youngest among the major presidential aspirant. Abeg make we leave this talk, election is over, nobody is campaigning anymore. Everyone made their choice for a reason, be it party, for a better Nigeria, ethnicity or religion. We'll altogether face the consequences of the choices we made.

elyte89:
Who are you picking?😎

I'll go for siasia and westerhorf

andrew444:
Simon is unselfish

unselfish player that hang to the ball till God knows when

Blueelf:
IMO , I think we should try Gift Orban in the wings, especially Chuks position

I feel that the reason Chuks has refused to improve is because he doesn't have competition

Or better still, move Osayi further front and let someone else take that RB position

nawao Osayi should be move upward because of one good move he made inside the box, then chukwueze should move to Lb

AndSunGorilla:
Onyeka has made a couple of poor decisions and the second cost Omeruo a yellow card. The first could have resulted in a goal. Bright and Iwobi have been brilliant. Simon too hasn't done badly but I have not been impressed by Zaidu on the left side.

i would have prefer Bassey as our LB. Looking at this game and watching the highlight of the first leg, I'll say iheanacho is a good player but needs to be more aggressive

andrew444:
If Moses Simon was the one in the position of chukwueze,we would be 2-0 up by now

na so we dy hear

Nice play from Bright, onyeka and iwobi doing well, the rest playing like amateur

The pitch is not even helping matters.

charlesemeka85:
was he mad to invite only 4 midfielders? He had the formation in mind before making the call up

no be today we begin complain about the lack of midfielders in this team. But coming to complain about iheanacho every time its like someone has done better in that position, Aribo won't do better. Lookman was our worst player in the first half.

charlesemeka85:
the formation the coach deployed is to accommodate him

Which coach in this era still plays 4-4-2?

looking at the players invited, he still remain the best to play the role, he created a good chance for Osimhen in the first half. With onuachu and moses coming in it's looking worst.

charlesemeka85:
The midfield trio would hv been ndidi,Onyeka and iwobi

We keep on making the same mistake with iheanacho over and over


So glad that gradually super eagles matter now dey pain me again

iheanacho is never the problem with this team

bastardson:
Seems they won Abia State.. I love how they lost. A prove that noise, insult, intimidation and Religious card does not win election

what win election is thuggery, violence, election rigging and voter's intimidation. Thanks for informing us.

daveP:
No it is not. Stop capping. Many europeans across the leagues i can mention with that stats but less thrilling performance, but they'll be tagged as having a good season.

like Saka, he's on 10goals and 9 assist

jihday:
18 G/A in 33 games is average? Abi I no understand weytin you write?

the thing shock me

Starboytwo:
omo, that lloris ehn, I don’t even know. His physique anytime I look at him, he looks so small and skinny or na tiny I go call am but the guy can fly no doubt. He is usually not ranked in any top whatever in goalkeeping rankings, yet he had such a long career as France keeper. Over 140 Apps. That’s staggering mehn. I like what I’ve seen in maignan tho, mandanda is always on the bench, don’t see him much.

i don't rate iloris as a top keeper, always flying around without making a top save.

Blueelf:
But make we talk true, Iheanacho is very inconsistent with his form

Forget say Rofdgers dey sentimental, Nacho too is very inconsistent

ANd yes, I am still not sold on him

Let him maintain it week in week out first

How do you know someone not giving game time is inconsistent. Has he been given a run of games and he fails to deliver?

ChrisKels:
I'm my book, Emeka Iroegbu is more talented than Jude Bellingham. Bellingham doesn't strike me as someone who would last on the scene.

i see him as a Dele Alli kind of player.

ChrisKels:
I think this should be Emmanuel Dennis's last game for Nigeria. He should be thrown away to rot somewhere else with his arrogance.

i have not seen any good game that guy has for Nigeria. And his attitude yesterday was irritating

BannedLarge:
There are lots of politics at this award. For example, Lewandoski deserved the 2020/21 version but he didn’t win while Messi won it. Today, saka deseved the u21 award and was robbed

okk let's remove that of Gavi and let us say Saka won it, the other three deserved the award. How can the best league produce just best player, with all the money to buy the best of the best.

EPL best league in the mud. La liga took home best young player, best keeper, best striker and best player.

I don't really understand this latest campaign against Ndidi, waa yesterday the first time he's playing as a make shift cb for Leicester. All of a sudden Ndidi is now the reason Nigeria don't play well. Some people are trying to push a narrative to portray Ndidi as not good in his role as a dm anymore.

Good evening house, my es330 started having issues of brake binding, my mechanic came to check the brake, service it and fix it back, but I just noticed the brake is still binding.

M7even:
Are those lines , I mean the green and darker grass lines 100% straight

Maybe your question should be is the centre line 100% straight?
Nawao people must argue even the obvious.

SlyDev:
Muslim and Christian only apply to igbo and hausa, Yoruba pick competence over religion affiliations

You pick competence and you went for Buhari, how's Tinubu the most competent. Keep deceiving yourselves.

LongBig:
So you can win trophy? My point have been made loud and clear! And that is south west delivered for apc! Shikenah!!!

You see I'm more concerned about people throwing around wrong figures and you can't be gentleman enough to admit it.

LongBig:
Hide your face in shame for stealing your only meet or what? Abeg find yourself a sit.

You were going around with your blind argument, giving false figures with your full chest, that's what baffled me. Acknowledge your error young man.

LongBig:
Google it and stop behaving like a toddler crying for mother attention.

oga where did you get 5m SW votes from, you keep arguing ignorantly. I believe when you see your foolly, you will hide your face in shame

Karlovych:
This is nothing but the truth, regardless of where a player is born they still need to put it the necessary effort to succeed as professionals even in the UK there are players who were very good art youth level but with time they fade away to obscurity.
Jordon Ibe is an example, Reece Wabara of Man City had to abandon football to start up his clothing business

nobody is saying a UK base player don't need to put in effort. We are saying someone in Nigeria putting in the same effort with someone in said UK, will never yield the same result.

M7even:
You guys are really funny on this arguement. How can you think wearing booths and having a father to drop you off at your football academy is the criteria to succeed in football.

Look at it this way. It's like academics where a rich parents pays for the best school for a child and a poor parent manages to send the child to a public school or a village school. What's gonna be the outcome of this. The answer is very easy as each person here can simply conduct that analysis on his or herself. That you are attending the most expensive secondary school in Nigeria is an investment in a child's future simply because of the exposure it brings along. That you have attended a public school or village school is based on the individuals ability to display extraordinary academic performance to boost his chances of moving forward to the university and getting a good job.

If you are the rich normal kid, you will go to a university ( which is like the soccer booths) you will get a degree and if you are intellectually gifted get a job without the influence of your parents. If you aren't so bright you might need the connection of your parent to secure a job( like how English players always get offers and loans easily even when they don't perform well in the current club)

If you are the public school chap in the university, who still manages to hold on to excellence in academic performance you must be really exceptional for that academics achievement to bring you a great job that totally liberates your family from poverty ( think that Nigerian working in big tech or Silicon Valley like Microsoft , google or Wall Street , or big oil firm) think of that one guy from university days who got such jobs on pure merit ( think about every Nigerian player who worked his way playing football in Nigeria before making headlines at the Dailies or national tv) it couldn't have been easy to be mikel obj at Chelsea or iheanacho at Manchester city (they both conquered the world by their hardwork respectively at under 20 for former and under 17 for the latter winning their nation laurels)

But the bottom line is , how many rich kids get good jobs after attending expensive and supposed good schools today? How many English players are in the first team of the top six teams of the EPL. The truth is everyone wants the best and whatever opportunity you are presented with in life it will always be up to you to make the best out of it.

oga I don't know how this is becoming rocket science for some of us here to comprehend the point goodjoe is making, two people putting the same level of hard work, one attending the best school and the other a village school, both doing very well, who do you think will get a better job. A player doing very well in say arsenal academy and another player doing very well in one local academy in Nigeria, who do you think have an edge. Better opportunity will always have the upper hand whatever way you choose to look at it.

What's seedorf doing in Nigeria. Hope no connect with our search for a coach.
