What you mean? Croatia pummeled CMR just as recently as last WC in 2014. So I bet maybe that's why they feeling pumped up. Well in our defence we also beat Bosnia in 2014. That game would be one of the best group games in Russia. Also another good game I'm looking forward to is the Morocco vs Portugal game that would be one hell of a game. Napoleon55: 1 Like |

I don't think they played today. I saw a game involving Songdal online, but that was an adecoligan league game whatever that stands for. His team plays in the tippelegan league. I never get to watch some Norwegian league games cos the only streams you see are never available in my country. But if for some reason it's true that his team is relegated we can take some solace that he's not their true player. But that would mean he and Awoniyi are struggling for the title of playing for teams that always get relegated. Lol Joebie: |

Just to add, in the current SE, I can only see Kayode being faster than Martins. I think he'd tie Musa and Onyekuru. However, I noticed speed is not one of Rohr's favored quality in players. He looks at other things or else Onyekuru and Kayode would have been playing a lot more. Let's see what happens if/when he invites Martins. He may just have what Rohr is looking for. goldfish80: 1 Like |

Just to add Guardiola never builds his team for only one person to be the clear highest goalscorer. He builds a mobile team that you could find about 3 to 4 players almost on equal goals. So that whole shoot and score stats that Iheanacho was bragging about was just BS to Guardiola cos he knows anyone can score in his team with his footballing ideology. He sets out to look for players that can fit into his fooitballung philosophy which our dear Iheanacho falls way outside that requirement. He always slowed their game down, gave the ball away needlessly etc. If you noticed, Iheanacho hardly received passes from teammates at some point depending on his position on the field. Their expectation was that he'd lose it almost immediately. He needs to change his game style.... I also saw where you recommended that he goes to Valencia. Please thats the worst place he should go. The watch word of LaLiga is ball control and with what Iheanacho is displaying he won't even make it past the trainings. The first thing he needs to put extra hour into is his ball control. Afterwards, his stamina and game involvement. He seems too lost in games. If he works on these 3 things he'd be almost unplayable. TheGoodJoe: |

So fine-tuning means when you have no other attacking options, you bench your only available attacker to play a MF in attack repeatedly? Wehdone sir! Pep has/would never rate Iheanacho in his life. Iheanacho dorsnbt fit his philosophy. Sorry to tell you this if Nacho were still in City and all their attackers and wingers/attackers are injured except Nacho, guess what Pep would do? He'd promote Foden and play him instead of Nacho. I don't know how hard it is to see that Pep never wanted Iheanacho? Truth is bitter, but it's still the truth no matter what and how hard it's tried to be disproven. TheGoodJoe: 1 Like |

Best comment. We think the niggas playing care about 1st or second position. They just wanna get outta the group and from there anything can happen. What if Denmark tops group C? In 2013 Nations cup, We all felt sad coming 2nd to play CIV, the rest they say is history. Knockout games are very different from group games and little things like 1st to score can decisively define the outcome for the rest of the game. I bet everyone forgot Emenike scored vs France in 2014. If that goal had mistakenly stood, believe me, that game could have been very different for france. I don't fear any foe in knockout rounds. My own is just sha qualify. Icon79: 2 Likes |

If you actually watched the draw and saw their positions then there's no irregularity. All group positions were drawn. And all groups are following the same pattern of P1 vs P2, then P1 vs P3, ending with P1 vs P4. P1 Russia and P2 Saudi Arabia. So what's the irregularity? Certitude: |

Because they are neutral and not Nigerians. Only Nigerians are giving Nigeria a chance and maybe 1 out of every 500k Neutrals are also giving Nigeria a chance. FOX panelists are correct in what they are saying. Looking at the pedigree of the players in each teams, it's only natural they say the truth which is that Croatia have a better pedigree. Apart from Moses and too some extent Iwobi (who's appearance for Arsenal is somewhat erratic), what other big name players do we have? But compare Croatia players. I know this is a Nigerian forum but let's not bash neutrals for saying the truth. I as a Nigerian had to dig deep to prove to some colleagues at work that Nigeria would qualify. They prolly thought I was on drugs. We only Nigerian players cos we are Nigerians. Let's be realistic sometimes. To the actual draw itself, I'd say we have a good chance. We musn't come out of that Croatia game with 0 points. A draw could do. Then we have to/must beat Iceland and hope for anything against Argentina. Cos even Croatia can beat Argentina. I just hope Iceland don't come and pull a Senegal or Ghana in our group by actually performing in their 1st WC. I fear despised opponents, cos they are the most dangerous. I trust we'd be very prepared cos we have a coach that pays attention to details. Heard his post-draw analysis and I knew the bobo was ready. Icon79: 1 Like |

That Martin's is older and Nacho is presently/currently in the SE team doesn't make Iheanacho better. I sick for that guy. Let's not get it twisted, tho I am of the opinion that we have moved on from the era of Martin's, I would never subscribe to that school that says Nacho is more technical than Martin's. Martin's is a very technical player. Martin's has always done well in every club he's been to. Let's not start taking his dues just cos em no de SE currently. I personally feel his speedy style suits this current SE. But I think we have other younger options and I only day that just cos of post WC era. If not that Martin's deserves a shot at SE and when i say deserves, he merits it due to his current performances. edi287: 3 Likes |

I like the way you pay attention to some little details. In the past Balogun's black boots used too turn me away but he wore red and a couple of some others wore red against Argentina. My favorite boot colors on Naija's kit are red and lemon green. Mujtahida: 2 Likes |

The bolded shows he wasn't really valued within English ranks as you're trying to make it seem. How would a hitman move from supposed Scottish title contenders to English championship side? Not even EPL relegation fighters... Ok, after single handedly (whatever u call singlehandedly) bringing hull up, how much did he play in their epl campaign? I am one of Aluko's admirers, but I would not attribute his omission to any upper powers. I feel it's due to coaches preferring other options. forgiveness: 3 Likes |

I think it's only one game that would be missed. There'd be no congestion of fixtures. Worse case scenario, is we play 2 games in one window - move the saturday to Friday and make up tge seychelles game on Tuedsday of whatever qualifying weekend. Caf always play their qualifiers on FIFA windows. So we should be fine. Mujtahida: 1 Like |

On game days I don't even sniff Nairaland. I manage Twitter. A game is barely 5 mins with some players not even touching the ball and all you read are abuses. I have to check and ensure thT I'm not watching a game that's already over. We are too hasty online. Even the ones that read on goal.com, or are following Twitter feeds also abuse. I tend to wait till the game is over and can rewatch the game again before it's taken down to have a better player assessment. Mujtahida: 1 Like |

Pass that kush u de blaw to another person. It's making you hallucinate. Aluko was close to which three lions? The English national team or abi u mean the 3 lions that were in the zoo? Please say something else. You keep coming up with excuses to paint Naija coaches bad and paint your beloved English born players as worldies. You said Fashanu was on the bench. But I remember reading that Otto Gloria didn't like his style of play. So how many games did your talented Fashanu play for England? That you hail from England does not guarantee you a playing shirt. Aluko was never ever close to playing for three Lions. Please name which outfield player has played for England from Rangers in the past 2 decades. I can't even see any suggestions online. Closest was Forster a goal keeper at the time with Celtic. Even though I appreciate Aluko's talent, but he's not all that else he would command a shirt like Moses and Iwobi. Or abi no be England those ones been grow up? Guy chill on these your okirika players e.g. Aneke and Co. forgiveness: 2 Likes |

There were 2 occasions Ebuehi was running free but Mikel slowed it and crossed and then on the other he did a 180 and drew a foul rather than release Ebuehi and hope for d possibility of a goal. But as I said it's a 'll good. Just that in the heat of watching the game our blood is hot as fans and you hope a player takes the action you see best on tv... Kog45: 5 Likes |

So glad about the game. Everyone's said all that needs to be said. Although, I appreciate Mikel's game a lot, but there are sometimes he poisoned some of our attacks by slowing down the running momentum. He should learn to go with the flow sometimes when we're counter attacking. 1 Like |

I'm glad someone noticed that. We now have warriors. To chip in, I also liked how Shehu kicked the ball,in anger and rushed to Brahimi when he should have kicked the ball out for fair play. This was what started the whole headbutting melee. Everyone came around. Before our players used to coward especially in away games. But his new SE team don't give a crap. I sooooo love this mentality a lot. Someone watching the game yesterday would think the ticket was on the line btw both teams. So much for a dead rubber game. goldfish80: 6 Likes |

The chance you're talking about clearly hit a big contour. That chance even made me know how technical Iwobi is. Why running he looked away from the ball knowing where it should be and looked up to find the best option. Only for him to want to cross the ball and the movement was altered by the contour. That field killed so many of our good moves sontoly: 1 Like |

Thank you brother. This thing is making me ewar to use a baton and bash someone's head. I swear if this was a bar and this nonsense is being discussed they for don break person head. I'm just going to do a head count on these players they are parabulating about. This is as at 8.42am Nigerian time: Solanke is in ENGLAND's under21 camp being considered to be uprooted to their senior squad; Tammy Abraham is with ENGLAND's main team; Onomah and Lookman are in ENGLAND's under 20 or 21 squad (saw it on IG); Tonorarigha was on the bench yesterday for GERMANY's under 20 team. These guys are not in NIGERIA's camp. I just checked their bio to make sure tmof their declared FOOTBALL nationality, at no time did any website categorize them as Nigerians.when they change their mind and decide that they want to party for Naija, they know what to do. Enough of this noise. We have gotten the ones that opted for us. Humility017: 7 Likes |
