The truth is the midfield will belong to the french that day. We ain't got their quality of midfield players at all. How ever, the wings should be our best offence. They ain't so good with dealing with set pieces. Hope we win that thrilling game!

People keep callin mikel name,yes we all know he is nt that good but we dnt have replacement.Is it only me that thinks d most useless player in that our team is ambrose,cnt u pple c what i'm seeing??

bashwaziri: [b][/b]Mikel shd be benched, he's too slow n sluggish. Even Argentina's coach said same on Nigeria not been aggressive enough. Mikel makes a game so boring with his back inaccurate, inaccessible passes. No wonder he is benched in his club! I fear more 4 him next season.

GBAM! SUPPORT THIS. LET THEM BENCH HIM(MIKEL) AND SEE HOW WE WILL WIN THIS WORLD CUP. HE IS SLOWING THE GAME. Whoever is the best dribbler and has perfect ball control on that team should replace him. WE HAVE EXCELLENT STRIKERS AND JUST LACK POWERFUL CENTER MIDFIELDER.

Mr Mac-10:
Paul pogba is the best u 21 central midfielder in the world. He reminds me of Patrick Viera . Mikel must bring his A-game on Monday

Pogba is a young player full of talent.

Abeg Op,go ask google

NAIJA IS SAYING BYE BYE TO THE COMPETITION AFTER MONDAY. ANY REAL SOCCER ANALYST CAN TESTIFY TO THAT. WE LOST TO ARGENTINA AND CELEBRATE IT LIKE A WIN . DAMN YOU MEDIOCRES

ZUBY77: This Pogba is overated.

I guess u don't know what over rated means if not u won't be saying this

[quote author=Knowledge9000]AM I THE ONLY PERSON WHO THINKS MIKEL IS OVERRATED? WE HAVE A PERFECT FORWARD...EMENIKE, MUSA, ONAZI, NWOFOR AND Odemwingie. We lack a POWERFUL midfielder like Okocha who can make plays by holding on to the ball for a few seconds...attract opponent players to him, free up opponent players on our forwards, make a little dribble and then pass to one of these forwards. This was what Okocha was good at...insanely near perfect ball control. MIKEL LACKS THAT...as soon as he gets the ball, he just passes quickly; like say him dey fear. NUMBER 10 no dey fear. The function of center fielder/number 10 is to make plays, free up opponent players on the forwards and distributes the ball to them...that's is primary function. That's why they are supposed to have excellent dribbling skills. I THINK WE NEED A REPLACEMENT FOR MIKEL OBI. WE NEED A PLAYER OF CALIBER LIKE OKOCHA AND DON'T TELL ME WE CAN'T FIND A PLAYER LIKE OKOCHA OR MESSI IN THE WHOLE OF NIGERIA....WETIN?[/Quote
Are you not a Nigerian- or your booth size no dey market?
NIGERIAN E-COACHES THO!
Sm say Mikel no dey pass fast,so say he dey pass fast fast...I TIRE FOR UNA O!

we are not blind like you, because I can see you as the only blind person viewing this topic on Nairaland, pple are talking of midfield you dey go where right back dey #mumucious pesticide# abeg o/c ban dis guy for life

omoteamac: That mikel is my worst nigerian player ever...i wonder how he got into that team...

As simple as that

Lmao @the bold.

Er, they can't win the midfield battle against the French. They're strong, pace, agile, physical, and technically superior. They'll have to play the same tactics they played against the Argies, with Mikel, Onazi, and Osaze dropping deeper. Baba seems like a breathe of fresh air, and he has added a little creativity to that midfield. So, he can play with Musa and Emenike upfront.

Musa is a G! Anything Messi can do, Musa can do better!

These guys need to surprise me again!

Onazi does not even come close to iheanacho and his peers. An idiot comparing him to pogba. Go self-service yourself

ZUBY77: This Pogba is overated.

Far too overrated. Thank God he is not British, he would have been placed side by side with Cr7 and Leo

L'blaque Haven:
What is a Mikel?
1. A Magician: He's right in front of u for 90min but u'll only get to c him for 30sec picking up a yellow card.
2. A Mikel is a Nigerian Ferrari wit d engine of a KIA picanto
3. A Mikel is anytin dat has weight, occupies space, breathes but still remain stationary.
4. A Mikel is a confused strolling object dat has no focus in d pitch.
5. A Mikel is d S.I unit for measuring deceleration. eg the car decelerated by 2mikel/sec
6. A Mikel is d Botanical name for snail, Mikelis Obilis.
7. Anybody who can pass d ball but can't shoot, cross, head or b creative wit d ball is a Mikel. eg my President is a Mikel.
8. A Mikel is dat footballer who is allergic to goal..........=D =)) no b me talk so o!! Good night friends.

Paul Pogba is a very technical player, always giving dat final through ball which as a striker u cant help bt put d ball at d back of d net. Midfield battle wont be easy for us, bt hey, who says we can't beat france..

great289:

U see y I said some people don't know what the word means

U call him a fantastic player and yet still add overrated

Paul pogba over rated. PREMIERSHIP FAN BITCHES WILL SAY THAT. WIDEN YOUR SCOPE BY WATCHING OTHER LEAGUES. THAT BOY IS THE BEST CENTRAL MIDFIELDER IN THE WORLD

is a game of 22 men,i strongly believe dat nigeria will win

omoteamac: boss..you sha wan comment shaaaaa..av i ever told you that he makes or earns millions of kobo and cefas?..

Maybe you havent been watchin the world cup matches...MIKEL is nigerian's worst player so far...

And he doubles as my worst ever player....so so slow and lacks vision...

AYEFELE is better than mikel in terms of mobility...

Oga,this is not hatred....it is the truth...

He is Nigeria's worst player so far yet he won
Man of the match against Iran. ..

My guy be careful

MabraO:
