Nigeria will rush for everybody in an EPL team.

they can't do another Dele Alli on us

onirugbon:
The ball Iheanacho passes to Sterling was awkward. It was is if he was abesent minded. The ball was snatched and that run led to the goal.

Sterling lost the ball and not Iheanacho, I saw so many awkward pass from Silva, de Bryan, yaya but that pass was not awkward.
I know you guys must always link a goal conceded by man city to Iheanacho.
Nancho game was okk especially when he fall to the midfield
Pep just need to do something about his defense and keeper

Brilliant goal from Lookman, Nigeria should rush for that guy. Bravo is shit, so much for "good on foot"

onirugbon:
Iheanacho once again causes the third goal with a poor passing.

Men and brethren, that is it. Pepe has succeeded in dipping our boy's confidence.

Bros abeg easy, which 3rd goal did Iheanacho cause, the ball was taken from sterling and it a brilliant run from Davies

aswani:
You cannot blow a game for half time or full time on a dead ball. The ball must be in play.

For example the number of minutes declared for extra time was 3 minutes and an injury occurred at 2:59. It then took 4 minutes for the injured player to be treated, the ref cannot blow for full time until the free kick is taken and only 1 second can be played.

I suspect something similar happened here. By football law the ref cannot wait to see what happens in the penalty area before blowing the whistle. Time is already up.

Nothing to do with her gender or tribe. Not her fault the players dand management of Ifeanyi Ubah don't know the rules.

Maybe Ifeanyi Ubah can choose the rules they
Want to follow as well as refs for their matches next time.

Mr rules, who decide if a player is offside or not according to the RULES.

giles14:
yes she is incompetent.

she exhibited.similar nonsense between heartland nd plateau united last season.

EVEN THE KANO PILLARS GOAL WAS OFFSIDE AS RULED BY THE LINESMAN BUT SHE WENT AHEAD AWARDED THE GOAL.

for all of u calling for sanction against FCIU,don't forget that the first goal by Kano pillars was offside as ruled by d linesman.

Tell me something is this thesame woman that officiate the Plateau-Heartland game? That woman should be throw away far from anything sports.

joseph1013:
Now, you see why people don't bother watching the Nigerian Football League. A club side just abandoned an ongoing match because the centre referee sent an official of theirs off to the stand for an unsportsmanlike behaviour.

Heard Ifeanyi Ubah scored a legitimate goal which the ref disallowed before the sending off ish. Overall, bad publicity for our league.

That boy Iwobi impress me today, that guy is class. England will never forgive Nigeria for taking away Iwobi

TheGoodJoe:

That was my recommendations to sort out our poor form back then. Top of my list was Echiejile. First, plug the gap on our left. When we did that, the result changed.

I believe you watched the Afcon before that world cup, Elderson was the reason the football federation bought return ticket for the team before the ivory coast match.
Elderson was the reason keshi field below average players like Reuben and his likes.
Bros saying Elderson single-handed cost Keshi his job is very ridiculous, and only shows you can go to any length to discredit a player.

"Elderson poor games cost Keshi his job"


This seems to be the worst thing after the Uruguayan FA President said Suarez was 'only playing' with Chellini!

goldfish80:
It was a pleasure to read through your post. We obviously share the same vision. If only Caf and the Nf shared the same vision.
Sometimes I wonder what the job description of these Caf executive Committee members are. Many armchair analyst like us can do better job.

Caf should integrate an U21 tournament into their calendar, also an expansion of the Caf champions league is long overdue, maybe an alliance with a few Arabian gulf countries to have their teams play in the Caf champions league could prove to be a master stroke. This will attract larger followership of the tournament and more TV money to participating clubs.
The recent Chinese infiltration should be a food for thought to Africa. We must re-strategies. The Europeans have succeeded in developing a UEFA youth champions league while Africa still operates a half baked 8-team champions league,without an U19/U21 championship.

In my opinion, Issa Hayatou cannot take Africa to next level. The status quo will remain intact if he's still there.

I think this year caf champions league will be 4group of 4teams, I read something like that about a change.

oweniwe:

Good day, the Human Resources Manager of PMC LTD invites you for a job interview. Venue: No. 98 Ada George road, PortHarcourt, opposite Tonninno filling station. Time: 8AM. Date: Monday, 9/1/2017. Come with your CV and your certificates. PEC/805

TheGoodJoe:

You will prefer one paying tribute to Lampard? Your seeing a break down of his performances and you are complaining.

Mr Joe can argue for Africa or you want the. Trend to go far cos I noticed you reply one comment with three or four post.

E dey pain my eyes

Wish John Mikel Nchekube Obi all the best of luck in China.

joseph1013:
You are correct. As at the period of camp, there was no such news. Rohr said he was concerned Musa's rustiness might bite him if he played.

Musa would have tackle kalaba in 18yard box and concede a pk. The coach decision is Final and from his view Ndidi would performed better than Musa

TheGoodJoe:

Indirectly, Rohr is saying he knows Musa Mohammed is a good option but he would prefer a weaker option because he has playing time.

This is something that has mystified me my whole life watching football. Far back as 1998, Glenn Hoddle who is a genius opted to leave an inform Michael Owen on the bench and chose experience players. They performed poorly and it took a protest by English fans to sway Hoddle to play Owen and Owen was brilliant.

Pellegrini dug his faith in Bony despite Iheanacho showing better form in training, coming from reports from City fans.

With time, when things got so bad, Pellegrini changed his decision and stuck with Iheanacho. Today, someone can say confidence.

Just play the better player after close study. Leave all these playing time talk. If they do well for the team, clubs will come for them.

Indirectly Rohr is saying you have to prove yourself in your club before I consider you. Playing Ndidi instead of Musa was not due to experience but fear of musa being match rusty, they was no info in camp that told us Musa performed better than Ndidi in training

BascoVanVeli:
I was hearing this and that about Iheanacho's performance, how it wasn't up to par but having watched a replay of that match those claims were bogus. He had a strong performance, his goal was his reward for relentless pressing and fine movements. He didn't have a single issue with his touch, honestly i am wondering what game people watched to say he didn't do good.

. If Nacho was the one sub-off like Nolito in that match, you would have heard worst.

He pick the skull by mistake

KidsNEXTdoor:
Op..... Must be a cone head
Cos they don't travel
They only stay in oshogbo open a nairaland account and knack head on the ground until they die

am deaded

Oxtonguy:
I no agree my own list be no1 lagos no2 abuja no3 port-harcourt no4 ibadan no5 kano no6 enugu

you List made more sense but I might just replace Ibadan with Calabar

16group of 3teams is ok by me, a knockout stage before the 2nd round, more slot for Africa.

EbukaLive:
You only insinuated it? Then, what are we discussing here? If I insinuate that you are 4feet tall and 95 years old. Will you start arguing with me?

Who proved that Chidera was 17? The youngest player in that squad was one Obasi. He mostly came on as sub, erm, where is he now?

I have been following these set of players since 2008. I have done my own personal research and investigations and correlated different events. You are making assumptions and insinuations... Pfffffft...

Bros abeg shun that guy he's just confuse, just spitting from both side of the mouth.

safarigirl:
Really? So there are other ways to win matches apart from goals?

I don't believe someone would say Goals are overhype, Like what's the aim of playing football why would grown up men run after a round leather for 90mins.

krattoss:
we'll iheanacho scored but dude needs to improve on his touches...

goals are somehow overhyped...

as long as the poor touch keep giving him goals he's good to go.


But I really don't see any Guardiola coaching input into Iheanacho games abi the whole city players.

You could see how Hull city took over a midfield with bryne, Silva and Yaya

Iheanacho 12goals with 19shot on target - incredible

Most Nigerian watching City's match don't care if City win or lose as long as Iheanacho score

BascoVanVeli:
now that he is off the bench lets pray for a winner.

He scores.

He scores.

komekn:
In the long term even short term this is a problem a lot of his injuries are muscular, hamstrings, calf, etc

But sometimes African genes defy the probability, can someone explain how Obagoal still remains so fast. And we know how old he is.

Obagoal running fast in China,smh
I made mention of players that rely so much on speed and no techniques.

To me I love the Iwobi type of player very technical like Kaka, they can grow to be world best but the Ox kind of player that rely on speed dnt last long.
