I stand with Oshoala on this.

But Peseiro should find a replacement for Uzoho.


That's the very big loop hole, that could cost SE progress from the group stage.

I diss Yaya Toure with “Disconnect” by Young John.
Great jam!
Yaya is right

Defense win you titles not attack

We don't have gk n defenders

Last Afcon early exit and not qualifying for world cup was due to gk error

How many men on NL can play football like Oshoala?

And you tell me what a man can do, a woman can't do better undecided
There is a reason why there is a male and female category in soccer!

If you make the inglorious mistake of pitching a lady against a guy in a soccer tournament,your body will testify with enough pains!

Serena Williams,one of the best female lawn tennis player ever bragged about defeating any male tennis player and went further to challenge any male tennis player!

A male tennis player ranked lower than 200 in ATP ranking responded to the challenge and won both Venus and Serena Williams the same time inside the same lawn!

Serena later confessed that she is definitely not playing against any male player because she now considers them far superior in terms of their physique!

Take note!

Brov what are you saying? Toure scored 21 goals and 11 assists as a deep lying playmaker. That is unheard of. Please don't say this again - Toure was not too exceptional? What?

Not a single player of those you listed is better or more exceptional than Toure except maybe George Weah. It's totally laughable to claim Drogba was more exceptional than Toure. Drogba had only one season where he scored more than 20 goals. Toure did that as a defensive midfielder!

Right from France to Spain, to England, Toure was an absolutely exceptional player who could play centre back, midfield, striker and deliver an 8/10 performance each time.

This has to be the most shocking football opinion I have ever heard.


You think George Weah is the only one above him?

Hmmm

Then Osimhen is higher than him

Yes because
In all of Weah greatness he couldn't win the highest goal scorer award in Italy but Osimhen has already done that

Becoming the first and only African to do that

Yaya Toure is over rated

Truth be told, this Super Eagle is not strong enough.

Oshimen is not dependable for the team.

I will root for them with little and managed expectations.
Re: “Talk Is Cheap” – Oshoala Backs Super Eagles To Disappoint Yaya Toure, On AFCON by godwon01(m): 9:06pm On Dec 28, 2023
Yahya Toure is still very bitter from the defeat they suffered from the less fancy Super Eagles that was dominated by minor players in Africa then in 2013. Yahya will never forget the incident till the end of his life. Let him continue to grumble on Super Eagles till will get another cup in his home country.

“Talk is cheap” – Barcelona star backs Super Eagles to disappoint Yaya Toure, impress at the 2023 AFCON

The former Manchester City midfielder is convinced three-time winners Nigeria are not among the favourites to win the continental championship next month

Super Falcons and Barcelona Ladies forward Asisat Oshoala has taken a firm stance against Ivorian football legend Yaya Toure’s recent prediction regarding Nigeria’s performance in the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations, Soccernet.ng reports.



Nigeria will compete in Group A at the AFCON alongside hosts Ivory Coast, Guinea-Bissau, and Equatorial Guinea.

Ivory Coast (two titles) and Nigeria (three titles) are the only former champions in the group and the favourites to qualify for the knockout rounds.

However, Ivorian legend Toure backed his country and Guinea-Bissau to make it past the group stage and reach the latter phases of the competition.

Still, Oshoala is not impressed by Toure’s submission.

In a chat with Brila FM, the six-time Africa Women Player of the Year dismissed Toure’s skepticism while backing Nigeria’s talented strikers to lift the Super Eagles to glory.


“Talk is cheap. When we get to the tournament, we will separate the boys from the men,” Oshoala said.

“Why not? We have the almighty Osimhen, the best player in Africa; we have Boniface doing well at club level. I feel like we have a good team; it’s not about individual talent.

“I feel like we have a good team, and we have enough time to build up towards the tournament.”

Nigeria boast some of the best attackers in Africa, with Napoli striker Victor Osimhen rated as the most valuable player on the continent.

The 2023 Africa Footballer of the Year was the top scorer during the qualification campaign, netting ten goals in six games.

Yaya Toure is right nah, Nigeria will not do anything. For the first time they will not qualify for the next round. Just because someone is benefited from the head coach salary, they cannot sack that idiot since. I think Super Eagles coach is the worse coach ever.
The people managing soccer in Nigeria are not trying at all, they are after their pockets grin angry grin

I get her point but honestly, you don't get to say "talk is cheap" when talking to one of the greatest African legends of all time. He walked the talk already. I know the context in which she meant it but it would have been better expressed diferently.

Nigeria is arguably the biggest footballing nation in Africa or to be modest among the top 3 biggest in Africa

3 times African champion... Won it more than Yaya Toure Ivory coast

The country that Hass played more finals than any other country

Won more bronze medal that any other country

Produced more African footballer of the year winners

Even have the current best player in Africa


And Yaya Toure will disrespect her to say, in a group that has


Nigeria
Ivory Coast,
Guinea-Bissau, and
Equatorial Guinea.


That it's Ivory Coast, And Guinea-Bissau will qualify isn't that a bigger insult?

Ivory coast will likely beat super chickens sha at the group stage so it's for the Nigeria team to try win others to qualify which if care is not taken na draw draw or loose

The same people we knocked off to win 10 years ago.


At some points, they were not even qualifying for the competition.

At least, we do qualify out of group stage. We have one of the best records of reaching semifinals or winning 3rd place.

Our problem is the coach and the goalkeeper.
