You are calling sadiq as if he has been capped yet
Rohr invited Sadiq b4 so who knows he might fancy his style. Where Dessers is playing might make it hard for him to noticed considering we have other guys like okereke, Simy, Dennis and Awoniyi who play in higher rated leagues.

It will interest you to know that I started watching football in 94 and constantly watching in 96 starting with Atlanta 96.
It will also interest you to know also that as far back as 2005-2007 I was with Bendel United in Benin City before knee injury cut short my career in 2007.
Shey you don see am now say I nor be your mate?
Same here. Started watching in 94. Then premiership was sponsored by Rothmans of Pall Mall. I was so passionate about football then, like I was crazy about it. Kai I don watch players Overmars, Kluivert, Zola, Vialli, Ginola, Teddy Sherigham, Paul Ince, Andy Cole, Andre Flo, Davor Suker, Stoichov, Balachov, Weah, Zamarano, Hagi, Maldini, Raul, Hierro, Batistuta, Klinsmann dem

then why is he asking stupid questions? This is the super eagles thread and Ghana and south Africa being ranked lower than the top five Hugh ranked teams are potential opponents for the super eagles.

My friend, don’t be unfortunate. We haven’t even qualified for the final round neither has the drawn be made so don’t give me that forking bullshit. Let’s stop mentioning any team that Nigeria hasn’t been patched to face. We don’t give a fcvk about your vuvuzelas or midgets except we’re drawn to face them and the next idiot that mentions those teams will get it from me

Context..... you missed it. He's simply telling everyone to stop feeling jittery over Ghana. Cos some Dudes want SA scale through, instead of Ghana in their Group.

If we lose tomorrow, we should rather forget AFCON. Both Liberia and Nigeria are West Africa Countries. Both of us are playing far away in North Africa on a neutral Ground.

Majority of our Players are used to the Weather and the Pitch ain't synthetic. If we couldn't get a Win, we have no Business in Yaounde come January.
Are you hoping we win AFCON? We are underdogs for the title o, if we win then that's an upset.

I swear.... I hate what football is becoming. I am a United Fan and really dislike Bruno. Stats-wise he's doing fine for United, but guess what he loses possession anyhow.

He would make countless risky passes, and at least 1 or 2 gonna end as Assist. He barely dribbles despite playing as No. 10 for United. He barely supports the Pivot for transition from defense to attack.

He's either competing with No. 9 for Goal or trying as much as possible passes to get at least an Assist. That's not what I subscribed for in football.

When we were young, everyone wanna be called Jay Jay Okocha, only few wanna be called Rashidi Yekini. In fact number of football lovers that would prefer being called Siasia exceed those that wanna be known as Rashidi.

As I pointed out earlier, football is moving away from Hawthorn Effect to Frederick Winslow Taylor's Theory. Players are now robotic - they follow Instructions strictly. Positioning, Movement, Passing, even shooting Range.

Entertainment part of football is fading away. Guess what? [/b]Anytime I feel like getting entertained football-wise, I do make use of YouTube to see Clips of De Lima, Gaucho and Okocha.[b]

E dey sweet my belle.... grin

That's the problem with you old people. Always saying yesterday was better and remembering the glory old days. You better start living in the present.

But men 9ja was king in underage competitions before, I remember my first watch u consciously watched and I cried that night in 1987. The U17 team of Osondu, Dimeji Lawal, tony emedofu, bawa abdulahi, taiwo enegwa and of course Lemmy Isah, the smiling goalie. That loss was too painful!!!!! And yes Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Figo, etc etc were wonderful artists.

Underdogs? Absolutely not..

On paper, we have one of the best sqaud on the continent...
We can now comfortably assemble a starting eleven of players from Europe top 6 league, none of whom are chronic bench in warmers...

The only reason we will be underdogs is because we don't have a good coach...

Jamuli Collins is in because we don’t have lots of options in the LB position. As for Musa and Shehu, they are there to “balance” the team. They are the quota candidates, if you know what I mean �

Then explain the inclusion of Jamui Collins, Shehu, Musa, and one or two others.

We are on the same page!!!! As our coach says, we don't have Mane or Salah in our team and our team is still young etc.
Because of the driver of our bus we are underdogs.

Again, no less than 2 Nigerian born players (Okafor and Akanji) in this Switzerland team. And that Okafor guy seems to be a good player, he just started the move that gave Switzerland a goal against Italy. And he’s been literally a thorn on Italian defense so far.

Gosh, who did this to us

Please check your facts.

Neither Okafor nor Akanji are Nigerian born. They are both Swiss born and bred and represented their birth nations - like most players.

There is nothing the NFF can do about it. They are not from Nigeria. We have no responsibility towards them nor do they have any towards us

I am looking at the possible line up vs Liberia According to owngoalnigeria and this man has ejuke, chukwueze and zaidu on the bench. I can’t wait for ANC because if he doesn’t reach the finals or win it, he has to go. One of the worse thing a coach can do, is to not select his best available players. Ejuke has been SE best winger this season
