Sportsweb:TBH, you're only as good(or bad) as your last game. We shouldn't be so quick to criticize him for a meagre 7games, forgetting the other 50something games he was absolutely brilliant. |

swiz123:Is it foreign to you or foreign to them? To be honest, I find it ridiculous to think that you'll feel it's an embarrassment for them to represent their country of birth because their parents are Nigerians. The only reason why those diplomats won't represent Nigeria (or most African countries) is that we don't make it conducive for them(economically, welfare and all). Those same people will happily represent other nations that are well developed and fully functional (example Laporte of Spain and Hernandez of France). Lemme ask you a question. I believe you've lived all your Nigeria. Let's assume you're a top footballer like Osimhen and you found out your parent's country is Chad. Would you with your church mind go and be representing them knowing fully well how underdeveloped (at least when compared to Nigeria) they are with respect to your skills/experience and also with how foreign you are with their culture and environment? 6 Likes 1 Share |

nihilistjnr: You are trying to compare apples and oranges in order to hide the truth which has become a manace in African football. Griezmann is mixed, Theo Hernandez father has a French name ( Jean-Francois Hernandez) and a Spanish last name. His mom also has a name of French descent ( Laurence Py ). How does this relate to Saka and Eze whose parents are both Nigerians with their immediate root in Nigeria. I don't expect Musiala, Ross Barkley etc to represent Nigeria but I expect full blooded Nigerians to represent their country. 2 Likes |

Jodera: Using a war torn country as an example? Why not use Nigeria as against England. Nigeria is very underdeveloped compared to England and yes, I will represent my country. Stop looking for isolated cases of Europeans who play for another country cos even at that, if we dig a little deeper, we will realize that both immediate parents have mixed blood. For example, Theo Hernandez. 1 Like |

raumdeuter: The bolded is what most are not getting. They think it's just easy to go to another country you're not connected to just because it's your fatherland. Imagine Saka that have grown all his life in cold region and sweet playing pitch, only to leave all that for a hot region and bumpy pitch. And las las they won't still pay him his allowance sef. Not against anybody that wants to come back (like Iwobi) but omorr, nobody should ridicule anyone who doesn't wants to. |

swiz123: You are very misguided if you think that song was about who has the right to play for a country. Most white Argetines are descended from European immigrants, typically with minimal admixture with indigenous populations. There's a reason many of the surviving top brass of the Nazi regime escaped to Buenos Aires after WW2. Argentina is an incredibly racist society. It's one thing for people not to like you. It's another thing for you to be trying to rationalise racist actions that even the guy caught on video is at least apologetic for. France did not play in Copa America. The people singing about the niggas that play for france knew exactly what they were doing. Don't gaslight yourself, nephew Ruckus. 21 Likes 6 Shares |

swiz123: Are you saying presently, nobody is representing Chad as footballers? If you can't represent Chad because it's underdeveloped compared to Nigeria, why do you want your peer from England to represent Nigeria that's underdeveloped after all the insecurities and Boko Haram that those people will be hearing too? It's easier for you to say yes, you'll represent Nigeria when you're currently living here; same way it's for Chad footballers living there to represent their country. The real deal is experiencing all your life there and still feel you can still say YES as you're saying now 3 Likes |

Jodera: Is Spain alien to Messi, too, why he rejected numerous pleas to switch his nationality? Spain made Messi, give him total support even what Argentina could not afford to give him, but still rejected them just to honour his fatherland. Representing one's country is about honouring and giving credence to one's roots and origin.
Yes, You are just confirming my stance, majority of those who rejected the move are from colonizing countries, while those who accepted are from colonized countries.
How do they appreciate them? Yes, they appreciate them when they win but they will be singled out for blame when they lose, they hurl derogatory names at them. Meanwhile, they absolve their own of any blame and instead, direct racist slurs at us, calling us monkeys. (Saka EURO 2000, Baloteli multiple times)
If I'm correct, I think no foreign player was neglected, but rather, it was the home-based players who were not properly handled. Moreover, it's unfair to generalize and judge the entire African continent based on one bad example.
They shouldn't have approached them in the first place.
If all our players shared this mindset, no one would be willing to represent the nation. But most players consider it an honour and a privilege to play for their country, and they take great pride in representing their nation. |

Lol, I was never in support of what Enzo did, but the way you just rushed to criticize messi at the slightest opportunity is just too disgusting ๐๐ Messi is the captain, ok. But he wasn't with them at the moment, at the same time, not the only older player in the team. Leo being the captain doesn't mean the players should be behaving like babies that doesn't know the left from their right๐คก๐คก Or you wanna say the coach also is not a leader?? Di maria or any other player shouldn't have cautioned them?? Get some sense, you ronaldo modafucker๐๐๐ BlueAngel444: 4 Likes 1 Share |

nihilistjnr: You are judging this based on Argentina's racist history. So your judgement is hinged on that bias and not rationality. Argentina's history with racism is well documented, however, I am strictly judging the Enzo incident. The important question to ask is, if Enzo truly wanted to be racist intentionally, will he post that video on Instagram only to apologize later ? Enzo simply didn't know the chant will sound racist to sensitive black folks. No one said anything about the post until jobless Fofana who spends so much time with his phone reacted to it from his hospital bed. Enzo simply succumbed to societal pressure, doesn't mean he intended to be racist and neither was he. Enzo mocked France black players for choosing to represent France instead of their African countries. How jobless Fofana twisted it to mocking their race is beyond me. 3 Likes 1 Share |
