Kog45: Some months ago we all watched in the Women's World Cup how the likes of Halimatu Ayinde and Christy Ucheibe ran tirelessly on the field and made sure the SF midfield did not collapse against countries ranked higher than the Super Falcons and these are women.. Now, a certain man named iwobi could not run tirelessly on the field and ensure the SE midfield does not collapse and you're saying " It is football and a lot happens on the field and even behind the scene....we need to respect our players cuz they are humans." Ayinde and Ucheibe must be super humans.. iwobi deserves all the insults he is getting from fans especially when women footballers are putting more effort than him on the field.. SE needs the men versions of Ucheibe and Ayinde in the midfield. 1 Like |

The backlash received by the SE players from some quarters is sickening. These guys are HEROES....Very few gave them a chance to do anything tangible. The comaraderie in this team was noticeable different. The fought together, suffered together but came up short in the end. We as fans need to get behind them. Egypt was able to win our total AFCON tally between 2006 - 2010. There is nothing stopping us from achieving such a feat with proper planning. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Not that I support bullying but I think we've sensationalized this Iwobi thing enough. Footballers being yabbed comes with the perks of the job. It's one of the occupational hazards of being a player and they are well compensated for it. Same can be said of politicians. You can't in one breathe defend Iwobi and same time insult Tinubu Balablu. That's hypocritical. Harry Maguire has been hounded over the years so much that a Ghanaian parliamentarian made jest of him on the parliament. Onana's at 50 memes are everywhere. Messi was bullied to a point that he quit the national team because he couldn't win the world cup or the South American copa. Nobody even threatened Iwobi to start with. Back in 2006, Pierre Wome had his family house burnt in Cameron after he missed a last minute penalty which denied Cameron from qualifying for the world cup. Let's move on abeg 3 Likes |

MetalJigsaw: I said change Iwobi during the course of the match before the equalizer because it was obvious to the eyes Iwobi wasn't in that game. He was tired. Paseiro should had brought in 4 fresh legs in the second half before that equalizer. Then I am sure the Ivorian doesn't stand a chance but unfortunately the coach no fit read match. He had no plan B. |

Asisat Oshoala cooking Tunde Ednut and VeryDarkMan on Iwobi's issue. Tunde Ednut started that rubbish, and people were literally BEGGING him in the comments section to take it down. He refused. Now the hypocriteeee was the first to post that Nigerians are wicked o. Nonsense people everywhere, blaming a team effort on one person.

Mujtahida: Wasn't going to respond initially cause much of comment already answers points raised in your rebuttal. You're just engaging in strawman. First, the conversation had a context which was cyber bullying particularly of sportsmen. Your claim is that Nigerians are wicked cause of the actions of a few and your referenced the US and UK as exceptions. I factually disputed that, and gave examples of same issues happening in the UK and US. That was the context. To your question? 8 out of ten times chances are your phone will be stolen. Chances also are the same set of people who took it the first time will be the same set it people who will take it 80 percent of the time. You see that? Also, there are very few countries where you won't get same result like you will in Nigeria. If you leave your phone in New York or London 8 out of 10 times it will get stolen. People are scared to buy luxury cars in London because of the increase in car theft. It's risky to walk on the streets of London with designer watched cause you'll likely be mugged. A small set of people carry out these henious acts and shouldn't account for the generality of the population being called wicked. I can even concede if you say Nigeria is becoming shithole descriptive of your subjective experience. But to say Nigerians, if is factually incorrect. Most Nigerians are good people. We have our issues, but we shouldn't make the sin of a few the identity of the many. 3 Likes |

charlesemeka85: You're the one capping. Didn't Yusuf come in vs Cote D'Ivoire before Aribo? So what are you saying exactly? Point is Aribo is a playmaker. That's his job. If you watched the last afcon, you would already know all that. The problem is some of you didn't watch the last afcon hence saying gibberish! I watched the last afcon hence I know what I'm saying. Aribo was integral in Nigeria topping their group while beating Egypt (Egypt got to the final). He was so brilliant against Egypt as matter of fact if not the motm. He was even playing as a roaming CM role in that particular match, created as well as carried the ball around when needed while also dictating the play in the midfield and he was also defensively solid. Similar thing against Sudan who even suddenly got back in control and became threatening after Aribo was subbed out in a bid to rest him since Nigeria were already wining 3-0 which later ended 3-1 after Aribo was subbed out. Nigeria could have probably got to the final If not for the goalkeeper (maduka) who made a mistake against Tunisia in the 1-0 loss, as well as Iwobi's early red card, thus Nigeria couldn't do much to turn it around since they were down. Meanwhile, the Egypt which Nigeria outclassed in the group stage got to the final and almost defeated Senegal who won through penalty shootout. 1 Like |

Our boys gave their all! Out of 32 nations we came 2nd. That is 99.9 percentile performance. How many here got that on a GRE/GMATH scores? Please let the boys breathe! It's football, if you don't win today you will tomorrow. England with all its investment has won nothing in 4 decades. Morocco has won nothing in 3 decades. In the last three AFCONS, we have won Bronze and Silver. Next AFCON, I promise you we will win the Cup. Only few of us believe, the boys would even get to the finals. Please, let the boys breathe. We go again in June! Long live Super Eagles. God bless Nigeria! 7 Likes 2 Shares |
