Kante na iron na
He’s built different
If France had him and Pogba in the team trust me they would have retained their title
Messi was clearly free to do his magic in that game

Mujtahida:

Spain over ten years, no trophy, no finals = excellent results

France in ten years: one Euro final, one world cup, one world cup final = poor result.

How can such a judgment be accepted

KINGinVAHALA:

Kante would have rendered MESSI impotent?
Is it the same Kante that faced MESSI and later on fainted at Chelsea training or another Kante?
With all the players France had in 2018, including Kante and Pogba which is far better than their 2022 squad, they were only able to win a less fancied and individual playing Argentina 4-3.
Even if France had Zidane and Henry, ARGENTINA would have still beaten them on Sunday.

Philosopher1979:


You see the npfl is an historical brand. It has a long history of excellence which can easily be leveraged on and bring back the fans.
This is a league that produced okocha, taribo west, Ahmed Musa, kanu nwankkwo etc.
It also has tradional teams like shooting stars and so the older generation can even be drawn to it.
It has a lost pedigree that can be leveraged on. Also, we can invite our old players like ogeyi onazzi to play for us.
People will come because those memories are still with them and the older generation can connect with the younger generation with this.
It's all marketing brother. The legacy is there to leverage on and it is something

Correction to some impression about Morocco

Morocco’s success in Qatar 2022 has more to do with the Footballing Education in Western Europe than the narrative of the Moroccan FA “investing in pitches”.

Out of 37 Players and Coaching staff in Morocco’s World Cup Team, 19 were born in Western Europe.

Goalkeeper Yassine Bounou was born in Canada and was formed in ATLETICO MADRID Youth System and we all know their history with GKs. From De Gea to Courtois to Oblak.

It’s clear to see.

Achraf Hakimi was born in Spain. Formed in REAL MADRID Youth System.

Noussair Mazraoui was born in the Netherlands and Formed in the AJAX Youth System.

Sofiane Boufal was born in France. Formed in the ANGERS Youth System.

Sofyan Amrabat was born in the Netherlands . Formed in the UTRECHT Youth System.

Captain Romain Paul Saïss was born in France . Formed in Le Havre.

The Manager Walid Regragui was born in France. Spent all his playing career in France and Spain.

Assistant Manager Gharib Amzine was born in France. Spent all his playing career in France.

Hakim Ziyech was born in the Netherlands. Formed in the Heerenveen Youth System.

Walid Cheddira was born in Italy and was formed in Parma.

Amass Zaroury was born in Belgium. Formed in Zulte Waregem.

Goalkeeper Munir Kajoui was born in Spain. Formed in ALMERIA.

Illias Chair was born in Belgium. Formed in the CLUB BRUGGE Youth System.

Zakaria Aboukhlal was born in the Netherlands Formed in the PSV Youth System.

Selim Amallah was born in Belgium. Formed in the ANDERLECHT Youth System.

What makes a house stand the foundation. It's obvious what is underpins the success of Morocco the backroom staff not just one coach. Add to that recruitment by merit, no nepotism and favouritism or Egunje.

18-year-old wonderkid Bilal El Khannous, was born in Belgium and was formed by ANDERLECHT AND GENK. In fact, he played for Belgium’s U18 Team last year.

GK Coach Omar Harrak was born in Spain and has been a GK coach in Spain and Cyprus for the last 12 years.

Video Analyst Moussa El Habchi was born in Belgium and has worked for Ajax, Genk, Anderlecht, & the Belgium National Team.

The Technical Director of the Morrocan National Team, Chris Van Puyvelde is pure Belgian.

Worked as Assistant Manager for Olympiakos, Club Brugge and Gent. Then as Technical Director of Belgium and China before joining Morocco in July 2022.

Research is key

Ighalo ,balogun nwakaeme did well at their 30

komekn:


It's difficult to say comprehensively.

I am looking at players who have been able to maintain high level of quality play in a top league of Nigerian origin after they hit 30.

Possibly it could have been Odemwegie but he had bad injury and it was down hill from that point .

daveP:
Meaning if too say we get sense down here, someone like Emenalo for be our coach and dia Saka and co for don rep Nigeria and did exactly what Morocco did at the world cup!!? It won't be hard. But we are surrounded by Shege!

andrewbaba44:


Put guardiola as our coach or even mourinho ,people like saka wont still play for naija

jihday:
these countries are just smarter, if an U-18 player born abroad shows great promise they can bring them to the senior team, if such happens here we’ll see people protesting and saying maybe the NFF have been bribed

jihday:
if Saka have Senegalese or Moroccan heritage they’ll have invited him to the senior team when arsenal was using him for meaningless cup games

We invited iwobi when he was not a first teamer

We have invited struggling foreign base over the years ,Senegal and Morocco aren’t better than us in terms of getting foreign base , it’s our own foreign base that prefers England before anything

jihday:
Iwobi had his uncle’s influence, Ekong had his U-23 performance to thank, maybe Okoye and that’s because we have a shortage of GK. I’m not in support of filling the team with mediocre players but we also need to realize that these players won’t be willing to play for us if we wait for them to become regulars for their clubs especially the ones at the top clubs.

If he was a product of our under 17 someone here would have told us how age has caught up with him

I wish Dele the best

You can’t know the future of most player from age

Because mikel was the best or came second best player at the world youth championship behind Messi doesn’t mean he was destined to be close to messi level ,even messi was a nobody at the 2006 World Cup

daveP:
That's not true. Don't forget these managers sabi draft contract well and we both know that getting specific players is part of their deals. They'll definitely push nff to get those guys. Name carry weigh. No foreign born will see these two as national team coach and want to turn down, especially those younger ones that dream to play under them one day. Make we tok true. Cameroon are in deep dung yet Daddy Adesanmi still came to them. They messed it up themselves by asking for bribe.


For any bribe allegations made by parents of footballers like that, i believe 7/10. We don't need Eriksson excerpts to believe that.

Odunayaw:
It has been debunked
